with procfs's cmdline - from the PR:
The cmdline implementation in procfs is bogus. It's possible that
part of the fix is a workaround of a UVM problem - that is, when
(internally) accessing the top of the process VM (the end of the
args) a request for I/0 of a PAGE_SIZE'd block starting at less
than a PAGE_SIZE from the end of the mem space returns EINVAL
rather than the data that is available. Whether this is a bug
in UVM or not depends upon how it is defined to work, and I was
unable to determine that. (Simon Burge found that problem, and
provided the basis of the workaround/fix).
Then, the cmdline function is unable to read more than one
page of args, and a good thing too, as the way it is written
attempting to get more than that would reference into lala land.
And, on an attempt to read a lot of data when the above is
fixed, most of the data won't be returned, only the final block
of any read.
Tested on alpha, pmax, i386 and sparc.
a set of flags ("flags"). Two flags are defined, UPDATE_WAIT and
UPDATE_DIROP.
Under the old semantics, VOP_UPDATE would block if waitfor were set,
under the assumption that directory operations should be done
synchronously. At least LFS and FFS+softdep do not make this
assumption; FFS+softdep got around the problem by enclosing all relevant
calls to VOP_UPDATE in a "if(!DOINGSOFTDEP(vp))", while LFS simply
ignored waitfor, one of the reasons why NFS-serving an LFS filesystem
did not work properly.
Under the new semantics, the UPDATE_DIROP flag is a hint to the
fs-specific update routine that the call comes from a dirop routine, and
should be wait for, or not, accordingly.

in vfs_detach(). vfs_done may free global filesystem's resources,
typically those allocated in respective filesystem's init function.
Needed so those filesystems which went in via LKM have a chance to
clean after themselves before unloading. This fixes random panics
when LKM for filesystem using pools was loaded and unloaded several
times.
For each leaf filesystem, add appropriate vfs_done routine.
UFS code, and I forgot to rename the "ihash" variable, causing
weird effects, because 3/4th of the UFS hash table would become
unreachable after procfs was loaded as an LKM.

To speed up things, use hashing for vnode allocation, like other filesystems
do. This avoids walking the whole procfs node list in the revoke case too.

relock it after it returns. tty close routines will sleep waiting for
buffers to drain, which won't happen often times as the other side needs
to grab the vnode lock first.
Make all unmount routines lock the device vnode before calling VOP_CLOSE().
Problem turned out to be due to improper handling of reads beyond EOF:
they should just return without error with the uio unchanged, and the
caller will recognize this as a zero-byte return (EOF).
The previous fix to protect directory reads against bogus uio_offset
values returned EINVAL, which broke mount -o union, which only
union'ed in the lower directory if the upper directory cleanly
returned EOF.
While we're here, protect kernfs as well.

exists is bogus. The goal here is to produce a synthetic link count
which won't confuse fts and similar routines which "know" that
directories with a link count of 2 don't have subdirectories (and
thus, they can avoid having to stat every entry in the directory
looking for subdirectories which aren't there).
We know that non-UNIX filesystem implementations may return a link
count of `1' for directories with an indeterminate number of
subdirectories; if either the upper or lower layer returns a link
count of `1', return a link count of 1. If both layers return a link
count of 2, return a link count of 2; otherwise, return the sum of the
link count of both layers.
Also, fix PR7430: unionfs ignores read-only mounts. Check for
MNT_RDONLY in union_lookup (more-or-less as in layer_lookup) as well
as union_access() and union_setattr().
Note that a read-only union layer may still cause side effects on the
underlying filesystems... Most notably, we'll still attempt to create
shadow directories in the upper layer. Also, of course, we'll
side-effect atimes in the lower layer.

The problem turned out to be due to the way LK_DRAIN was (not) handled
in union_lock; it just got passed through to the lock on the upper
vnode (which got marked as decommissioned, instead of that happening
to the union vnode. When the upper vnode was next locked (typically
when it was released), it went kaboom.
and PID allocation MP-safe. A new process state is added: SDEAD. This
state indicates that a process is dead, but not yet a zombie (has not
yet been processed by the process reaper).
SDEAD processes exist on both the zombproc list (via p_list) and deadproc
(via p_hash; the proc has been removed from the pidhash earlier in the exit
path). When the reaper deals with a process, it changes the state to
SZOMB, so that wait4 can process it.
Add a P_ZOMBIE() macro, which treats a proc in SZOMB or SDEAD as a zombie,
and update various parts of the kernel to reflect the new state.
getnewvnode now checks this bit, and it if's set makes sure a vnode's not
locked before removing it from the free list.
