to four (adding size and direction).
In order for topdown uvm to be an option on ports using PMAP_PREFER,
they will need to "prefer" lower addresses if topdown is being used.
Additionally, at least one port also needs to know the size.
(namely exec_map and phys_map) becuase:
- normal vmmpepl is fine for them.
- some of them are tightly sized. eg. size of exec_map on vax is just NCARGS.
should fix vax boot failure reported by Johnny Billquist on current-users@.
this means we can no longer look at the vnode size to determine how many
pages to request in a fault, which is good since for NFS the size can change
out from under us on the server anyway. there's also a new flag UBC_UNMAP
for ubc_release(), so that the file system code can make the decision about
whether to cache mappings for files being used as executables.
- allocate kva for vm_map_entry from the map itsself and
remove the static limit, MAX_KMAPENT.
- keep merged entries for later splitting to fix allocate-to-free problem.
PR/24039.
- decrement uvmexp.anonpages as it's no longer an anon page.
- null out anon->u.an_page as the anon no longer own the page.
uvm_anfree: add related assertions.
- Not enabled by default. Needs kernel option FFS_SNAPSHOT.
- Change parameters of ffs_blkfree.
- Let the copy-on-write functions return an error so spec_strategy
may fail if the copy-on-write fails.
- Change genfs_*lock*() to use vp->v_vnlock instead of &vp->v_lock.
- Add flag B_METAONLY to VOP_BALLOC to return indirect block buffer.
- Add a function ffs_checkfreefile needed for snapshot creation.
- Add special handling of snapshot files:
Snapshots may not be opened for writing and the attributes are read-only.
Use the mtime as the time this snapshot was taken.
Deny mtime updates for snapshot files.
- Add function transferlockers to transfer any waiting processes from
one lock to another.
- Add vfsop VFS_SNAPSHOT to take a snapshot and make it accessible through
a vnode.
- Add snapshot support to ls, fsck_ffs and dump.

PG_RELEASED for anon pages. PR/23171 from Christian Limpach.
for details, see discussion filed in the PR database.
uvm_anon_release: a new function to free anon-owned PG_RELEASED page.
uvm_anfree: we can't wait for the page here because the caller might hold
amap lock. instead, just mark the page as PG_RELEASED.
who unbusy the page should check the PG_RELEASED.
uvm_aio_aiodone: uvm_anon_release() instead of uvm_page_unbusy()
if appropriate.
uvmfault_anonget: check PG_RELEASED.
