to the total free memory available to the system, use the smallest value
between VM_MAXUSER_ADDRESS and total free memory (having a RSS limit
bigger than VM_MAXUSER_ADDRESS has no real meaning).
Fix a possible int overflow when ptoa(uvmexp.free) is bigger than 4GB
with a 32 bits vaddr_t.

- 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>).

If it's not defined and PMAP_MAP_POOLPAGE is defined and USPACE == PAGE_SIZE,
then allocate/map USPACE via uvm_pagealloc/PMAP_MAP_POOLPAGE.
On platforms like MIPS with 16KB pages, this means that uareas (and hence lwp
kernel stacks) will be always be accessible since they will be KSEG0.
activity of other threads will perform the TLB flush for the processes using
emap as a side effect. To track that, global and per-CPU generation numbers
are used. This idea was suggested by Andrew Doran; various improvements to
it by me. Notes:
- For now, zero-copy on pipe is not yet enabled.
- TCP socket code would likely need more work.
- Additional UVM loaning improvements are needed.
Proposed on <tech-kern>, silence there.
Quickly reviewed by <ad>.
address space available to processes. this limit exists in most other
modern unix variants, and like most of them, our defaults are unlimited.
remove the old mmap / rlimit.datasize hack.
- adds the VMCMD_STACK flag to all the stack-creation vmcmd callers.
it is currently unused, but was added a few years ago.
- add a pair of new process size values to kinfo_proc2{}. one is the
total size of the process memory map, and the other is the total size
adjusted for unused stack space (since most processes have a lot of
this...)
- patch sh, and csh to notice RLIMIT_AS. (in some cases, the alias
RLIMIT_VMEM was already present and used if availble.)
- patch ps, top and systat to notice the new k_vm_vsize member of
kinfo_proc2{}.
- update irix, svr4, svr4_32, linux and osf1 emulations to support
this information. (freebsd could be done, but that it's best left
as part of the full-update of compat/freebsd.)
this addresses PR 7897. it also gives correct memory usage values,
which have never been entirely correct (since mmap), and have been
very incorrect since jemalloc() was enabled.
tested on i386 and sparc64, build tested on several other platforms.
thanks to many folks for feedback and testing but most espcially
chuq and yamt for critical suggestions that lead to this patch not
having a special ugliness i wasn't happy with anyway :-)
into modules. By and large this commit:
- shuffles header files and ifdefs
- splits code out where necessary to be modular
- adds module glue for each of the components
- adds/replaces hooks for things that can be installed at runtime
use both types of list.
- Make page coloring and idle zero state per-CPU.
- Maintain per-CPU page freelists. When freeing, put pages onto the local
CPU's lists and the global lists. When allocating, prefer to take pages
from the local CPU. If none are available take from the global list as
done now. Proposed on tech-kern@.
proclist_mutex and proclist_lock into a single adaptive mutex (proc_lock).
Implications:
- Inspecting process state requires thread context, so signals can no longer
be sent from a hardware interrupt handler. Signal activity must be
deferred to a soft interrupt or kthread.
- As the proc state locking is simplified, it's now safe to take exit()
and wait() out from under kernel_lock.
- The system spends less time at IPL_SCHED, and there is less lock activity.
tech-kern:
- Invert priority space so that zero is the lowest priority. Rearrange
number and type of priority levels into bands. Add new bands like
'kernel real time'.
- Ignore the priority level passed to tsleep. Compute priority for
sleep dynamically.
- For SCHED_4BSD, make priority adjustment per-LWP, not per-process.
from doc/BRANCHES:
idle lwp, and some changes depending on it.
1. separate context switching and thread scheduling.
(cf. gmcgarry_ctxsw)
2. implement idle lwp.
3. clean up related MD/MI interfaces.
4. make scheduler(s) modular.
P_*/L_* naming convention, and rename the in-kernel flags to avoid
conflict. (P_ -> PK_, L_ -> LW_ ). Add back the (now unused) LSDEAD
constant.
Restores source compatibility with pre-newlock2 tools like ps or top.
