through a layered file system.
Note: we don't actually support snapshots through a layered file system,
and this routine returns an error. However we: 1) have clearly documented
what needs fixing (which isn't trivial to fix) and 2) if we do fix
this, all layered file systems can take advantage of it at once.
fix for layered-file-removal. It will work for the case of accessing
and deleting a file through the layered file system. Accessing via
the layer and deleting on the underlying still won't work, nor will
accessing via complicated structures (like two umap layers over a
given file systems).
We still need VOP_UPCALL(), but this is better than things were before.
This patch has been discussed off & on for a while. This incarnation
was tested by hannken at netbsd dot org.
Introduce new socket-layer function sbappendaddrchain() to
sys/kern/uipc_socket2.c: like sbappendaddr(), only takes a chain of
records and appends the entire chain in one pass. sbappendaddrchain()
also takes an `sbprio' argument, which indicates the caller requires
special `reliable' handling of the socket-buffer. `sbprio' is
described in sys/sys/socketvar.h, although (for now) the different
levels are not yet implemented.
Rework sys/netipsec/key.c PF_KEY DUMP responses to build a chain of
mbuf records, one record per dump response. Unicast the entire chain
to the requestor, with all-or-none semantics.

Todo: request pullup to 2.0 branch. Post-2.0, rework sysctl() API for
dumps to use new record-chain constructors. Actually implement
the distinct service levels in sbappendaddrchain() so we can use them
to make PF_KEY ACQUIRE messages more reliable.
KAME sys/netkey/key.c rev 1.119 ke_sp_unlink()/key_sp_dead() logic.
I have been running a similar version for about 10 days now, and it
fixes the PCB-cache refcount problems for me.
Checked in as a candidate for pullup to the 2.0 branch.
key_prefered_oldsa, defaulted to 1 (on): preferring old SAs, based on
the ill-concieved Jenkins I-D, is broken by design. For now, just
turn it off, as the simplest way to fix this in the 2.0 branch.
Next step is to rip it out entirely: it was always a bad idea.
