* Use the same criterion when to write back temporary pages as the page daemon.
* Move wired and temporary pages that shall not be written back to the active or
inactive queue so they don't get stuck in the modified queue and potentially
cause the page writer to run permanently without actually making progress
(#5382).
page writing implementation:
* If writing back a temporary page failed, move it back to the inactive or
active queue, so it doesn't get stuck in the modified queue. If active paging
continues, it might find its way back to the modified queue in the next
iteration, but that improves the situation a bit at least. Particularly with
the port heap pages not really being swappable ATM.
* Never dequeue pages from the modified queue. We mark them busy, so the page
writer will skip them anyway. This allows others to play with the page to some
extend (at least allowing to move it between the queues). This fixes#5404.
* Removed PageWriteWrapper::ClearModifiedFlag(). We clear the modified flag in
PageWriteWrapper::SetTo(), now, so that the page writer doesn't need to do
that explicitly either.

keeping all returned heap memory in the 0xdeadbeef state (including the
first sizeof(void *) bytes otherwise for the free list). While wasting a lot
of memory it allows you to rely on 0xdeadbeef being always present as no
future allocation will reuse the freed memory block.
* Also added heap_debug_malloc_with_guard_page() which is intended to allocate
a memory block so it is aligned that the start of invalid memory past the
allocation is in an unmapped guard page. However the kernel backend that would
guarantee this is not yet implemented, so right now this works only by chance
if no other area happens to be allocated exactly past the created one. With a
very specifc suspicion you can put that one allocation you get to good use
though. It causes a crash when accessing memory past the allocation size so
you actually get a backtrace from where the access happened instead of only
after freeing/wall checking.

it has been unmapped. This way modified pages could end up in the "cached"
queue without having been written back. That would be a good explanation for
#5374 (partially wrong file contents) -- as soon as such a page was freed,
the invalid on-disk contents would become visible.

* Renamed the "busy" stuff to "busy_reading", and added a "busy_writing"
concept.
* This now allows reading a block (and other blocks), while blocks are written

unzipping or compiling.

* Moving some functions around, removing and adding others for the public API.

* Make the contiguous page allocation capable of aligning the allocation
and make it more clever by checking up front if there's a chance of getting
enough pages at all, by giving up earlier if the page count can't be fit
anymore, and in the alignment case by only checking the pages which have a
valid alignment.
* If the alignment requirement is > B_PAGE_SIZE we now use page allocation
directly, because the bins aren't necesarily aligned on their size past
B_PAGE_SIZE anymore.
* When doing aligned bin allocation, calculate the aligned size up front and
choose the right heap for the allocation.
* Also when doing aligned bin allocations we not only need to round up the size
but also ensure that the bin we choose is aligned at all.
* Moved adding leak check info into it's own function.
Fixes various misalignment problems when working with alignments > B_PAGE_SIZE
or when using alignments < allocation size. Also the directly aligned page
allocations now only use up as many pages as actually required instead of
allocating based on the rounded up to align size.

git-svn-id: file:///srv/svn/repos/haiku/haiku/trunk@35394 a95241bf-73f2-0310-859d-f6bbb57e9c96
* Added vm_clear_page_mapping_accessed_flags() and
vm_remove_all_page_mappings_if_unaccessed(), which combine the functionality
of vm_test_map_activation(), vm_clear_map_flags(), and
vm_remove_all_page_mappings(), thus saving lots of calls to translation map
methods. The backend is the new method
VMTranslationMap::ClearAccessedAndModified().
* Started to make use of the cached page queue and changed the meaning of the
other non-free queues slightly:
- Active queue: Contains mapped pages that have been used recently.
- Inactive queue: Contains mapped pages that have not been used recently. Also
contains unmapped temporary pages.
- Modified queue: Contains unmapped modified pages.
- Cached queue: Contains unmapped unmodified pages (LRU sorted).
Unless we're actually low on memory and actively do paging, modified and
cached queues only contain non-temporary pages. Cached pages are considered
quasi free. They still belong to a cache, but since they are unmodified and
unmapped, they can be freed immediately. And this is what
vm_page_[try_]reserve_pages() do now when there are no more actually free
pages at hand. Essentially this means that pages storing cached file data,
unless mmap()ped, no longer are considered used and don't contribute to page
pressure. Paging will not happen as long there are enough free + cached pages
available.
* Reimplemented the page daemon. It no longer scans all pages, but instead works
the page queues. As long as the free pages situation is harmless, it only
iterates through the active queue and deactivates pages that have not been
used recently. When paging occurs it additionally scans the inactive queue and
frees pages that have not been used recently.
* Changed the page reservation/allocation interface:
vm_page_[try_]reserve_pages(), vm_page_unreserve_pages(), and
vm_page_allocate_page() now take a vm_page_reservation structure pointer.
The reservation functions initialize the structure -- currently consisting
only of a count member for the number of still reserved pages.
vm_page_allocate_page() decrements the count and vm_page_unreserve_pages()
unreserves the remaining pages (if any). Advantages are that reservation/
unreservation mismatches cannot occur anymore, that vm_page_allocate_page()
can verify that the caller has indeed a reserved page left, and that there's
no unnecessary pressure on the free page pool anymore. The only disadvantage
is that the vm_page_reservation object needs to be passed around a bit.
* Reworked the page reservation implementation:
- Got rid of sSystemReservedPages and sPageDeficit. Instead
sUnreservedFreePages now actually contains the number of free pages that
have not yet been reserved (it cannot become negative anymore) and the new
sUnsatisfiedPageReservations contains the number of pages that are still
needed for reservation.
- Threads waiting for reservations do now add themselves to a waiter queue,
which is ordered by descending priority (VM priority and thread priority).
High priority waiters are served first when pages become available.
Fixes#5328.
* cache_prefetch_vnode(): Would reserve one less page than allocated later, if
the size wasn't page aligned.

general "flags" parameter. It encodes the target state of the page -- so
that the page isn't unnecessarily put in the wrong page queue first -- a
flag whether the page should be cleared, and one to indicate whether the
page should be marked busy.
* Added page state PAGE_STATE_CACHED. Not used yet.

flag. The obvious advantage is that one can still see what state a page is in
and even move it between states while being marked busy.
* Removed the vm_page::is_dummy flag. Instead we mark marker pages busy, which
in all cases has the same effect. Introduced a vm_page_is_dummy() that can
still check whether a given page is a dummy page.
* vm_page_unreserve_pages(): Before adding to the system reserve make sure
sUnreservedFreePages is non-negative. Otherwise we'd make nonexisting pages
available for allocation. steal_pages() still has the same problem and it
can't be solved that easily.
* map_page(): No longer changes the page state/mark the page unbusy. That's the
caller's responsibility.
