Uses a hook in spec_strategy() to save data written from a mounted
file system to its block device and a hook in dounmount().

Gone are the old kern_sysctl(), cpu_sysctl(), hw_sysctl(),
vfs_sysctl(), etc, routines, along with sysctl_int() et al. Now all
nodes are registered with the tree, and nodes can be added (or
removed) easily, and I/O to and from the tree is handled generically.
Since the nodes are registered with the tree, the mapping from name to
number (and back again) can now be discovered, instead of having to be
hard coded. Adding new nodes to the tree is likewise much simpler --
the new infrastructure handles almost all the work for simple types,
and just about anything else can be done with a small helper function.
All existing nodes are where they were before (numerically speaking),
so all existing consumers of sysctl information should notice no
difference.
PS - I'm sorry, but there's a distinct lack of documentation at the
moment. I'm working on sysctl(3/8/9) right now, and I promise to
watch out for buses.

it must enabled by using the LOCAL_CONNWAIT socket option on either the
connecting or accepting socket.

handled means that the vrele() may not actually do the final close

file system.
The function vfs_write_suspend stops all new write operations to a file
system, allows any file system modifying system calls already in progress
to complete, then sync's the file system to disk and returns. The
function vfs_write_resume allows the suspended write operations to
complete.

are opened (was always done for block devices).
This means that fstat will report the partition size and hence newfs
needn't grovel into the disklabel to find the filesystem size.
to have KFS or PFS differentiators. Further I have wrapped the enum in
procfs in "#ifdef _KERNEL" as it is done in kernfs.

and look for "Mismatched enums in include files" in the list.
genfs_getpages() can read in more blocks than it should due to faked filesize
of lfs_gop_size(). it's a security problem and it makes gcc3 "internal error"
to fix this,
- in genfs_getpages(), always calculate diskeof and memeof separately
so that filesystems (in this case, lfs) can use different strategies
for them.
- introduce GOP_SIZE_MEM flag and use it to request in-core filesize.
(it was an intention of GOP_SIZE_READ,
but after the above change _READ is not a straightforward name)
after this, no one uses GOP_SIZE_{READ,WRITE} anymore but leave them for now.
Handy because ls(1) helpfully converts the time to human-readable
format when printing, and because shell tools like "test -nt" and
"find -newer" can be used against it.
"Inspired" by a discussion about removing lockfiles older than the
last reboot, and Al Crooks' handy observation that a close
approximation can be found with /var/run/dmesg.boot
While here, notice that a lot of the kernfs structures and naming
changed suddenly, and though it seems a clear improvement, there was no
mention in commit logs.
* Remove the "lwp *" argument that was added to vget(). Turns out
that nothing actually used it!
* Remove the "lwp *" arguments that were added to VFS_ROOT(), VFS_VGET(),
and VFS_FHTOVP(); all they did was pass it to vget() (which, as noted
above, didn't use it).
* Remove all of the "lwp *" arguments to internal functions that were added
just to appease the above.
be inserted into ktrace records. The general change has been to replace
"struct proc *" with "struct lwp *" in various function prototypes, pass
the lwp through and use l_proc to get the process pointer when needed.
Bump the kernel rev up to 1.6V
use malloc/free for array of pointers to vm_page.
otherwise, use on-stack array as used to.
this change fixes assertion failure when nfsd gets a big read request
that isn't aligned with filesystem block.

first step towards per-device MAXPHYS, and has the beneficial side effect
of allowing clustering to MAXPHYS even on systems that need to run with
a reduced MAXBSIZE to get more metadata buffers.
