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.
XXX: Perhaps rename rb.h to rbtree.h, since cleaning-up..

in the vnode. All LK_* flags move from sys/lock.h to sys/vnode.h. Calls
to vlockmgr() in file systems get replaced with VOP_LOCK() or VOP_UNLOCK().
Welcome to 5.99.34.
Discussed on tech-kern.
- 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.

implementation. The arguably weird semantics of the check are
maintained (v_size vs. va_bytes, overwrite).

not. The server can now be made an independent module not depending
on the nfs client.
Tested with rump_nfs (standalone client), rump_nfsd (standalone
nfsd) and a qemu installation with both the client and the server.
years ago when the kernel was modified to not alter ABI based on
DIAGNOSTIC, and now just call the respective function interfaces
(in lowercase). Plenty of mix'n match upper/lowercase has creeped
into the tree since then. Nuke the macros and convert all callsites

- Addresses the issue described in PR/38828.
- Some simplification in threading and sleepq subsystems.
- Eliminates pmap_collect() and, as a side note, allows pmap optimisations.
- Eliminates XS_CTL_DATA_ONSTACK in scsipi code.
- Avoids few scans on LWP list and thus potentially long holds of proc_lock.
- Cuts ~1.5k lines of code. Reduces amd64 kernel size by ~4k.
- Removes __SWAP_BROKEN cases.
Tested on x86, mips, acorn32 (thanks <mpumford>) and partly tested on
acorn26 (thanks to <bjh21>).

the regular symlink-following code plus an extra flag nfsd needs.
The two lots of code can/will be merged in the future.

Also, clone the lookup_for_nfsd() entry point as
lookup_for_nfsd_index(), for use by a different call site in nfsd that
does different unclean things with nameidata.

Adjust file-system code to use it.
Keep vaccess() for KPI compatibility and to keep element of least
surprise. A "diagnostic" message warning that vaccess() is deprecated will
be printed when it's used (obviously, only in DIAGNOSTIC kernels).
