- Reorganize locking in UVM and provide extra serialisation for pmap(9).
New lock order: [vmpage-owner-lock] -> pmap-lock.
- Simplify locking in some pmap(9) modules by removing P->V locking.
- Use lock object on vmobjlock (and thus vnode_t::v_interlock) to share
the locks amongst UVM objects where necessary (tmpfs, layerfs, unionfs).
- Rewrite and optimise x86 TLB shootdown code, make it simpler and cleaner.
Add TLBSTATS option for x86 to collect statistics about TLB shootdowns.
- Unify /dev/mem et al in MI code and provide required locking (removes
kernel-lock on some ports). Also, avoid cache-aliasing issues.
Thanks to Andrew Doran and Joerg Sonnenberger, as their initial patches
formed the core changes of this branch.

Clean up and add asserts (note that dvp == vp cannot happen in vop_link).
OK dholland@
so nfsd no longer needed to do a lookup() call immediately afterwards
to retrieve the newly created object.
Since that change there has been no way for ISSYMLINK to be set upon
return from VOP_MKNOD (or before the call to VOP_MKNOD either) so
remove the test for it and associated block of dead code.
(I do not understand how this code was reachable before then either.
The logic in question is only reached if no object by that name
existed, and there's no reasonable way that a successful call to
VOP_MKNOD should ever create a symlink. The code appears to come from
4.4lite; maybe they had locking bugs?)
will have an easier time replacing it with something different, even if
it is a second radix-trie implementation.
sys/net/route.c and sys/net/rtsock.c no longer operate directly on
radix_nodes or radix_node_heads.
Hopefully this will reduce the temptation to implement multipath or
source-based routing using grotty hacks to the grotty old radix-trie
code, too. :-)

at Panix. Will require increase to sbmax via sysctl for those running really

parent dir) associated with SAVESTART in relookup().
Check all call sites to make sure that SAVESTART wasn't set while
calling relookup(); if it was, adjust the refcount behavior. Remove
related references to SAVESTART.
The only code that was reaching the extra ref was msdosfs_rename,
where the refcount behavior was already fairly broken and/or gross;
repair it.
Add a dummy 4th argument to relookup to make sure code that hasn't
been inspected won't compile. (This will go away next time the
relookup semantics change, which they will.)
pathbuf object passed to namei as work space instead. (For now a pnbuf
pointer appears in struct nameidata, to support certain unclean things
that haven't been fixed yet, but it will be going away in the future.)
This removes the need for the SAVENAME and HASBUF namei flags.
and the metadata required to interpret it. Callers of namei must now
create a pathbuf and pass it to NDINIT (instead of a string and a
uio_seg), then destroy the pathbuf after the namei session is
complete.
Update all namei call sites accordingly. Add a pathbuf(9) man page and
update namei(9).
The pathbuf interface also now appears in a couple of related
additional places that were passing string/uio_seg pairs that were
later fed into NDINIT. Update other call sites accordingly.
1. Fix inverted node order, so that negative value from comparison operator
would represent lower (left) node, and positive - higher (right) node.
2. Add an argument (i.e. "context"), passed to comparison operators.
3. Change rb_tree_insert_node() to return a node - either inserted one or
already existing one.
4. Amend the interface to manipulate the actual object, instead of the
rb_node (in a similar way as Patricia-tree interface does).
5. Update all RB-tree users accordingly.

Welcome to 5.99.34.

- VOP_LOCK(vp, flags): Limit the set of allowed flags to LK_EXCLUSIVE,
LK_SHARED and LK_NOWAIT. LK_INTERLOCK is no longer allowed as it
makes no sense here.
- VOP_ISLOCKED(vp): Remove the for some time unused return value
LK_EXCLOTHER. Mark this operation as "diagnostic only".
Making a lock decision based on this operation is no longer allowed.
