Add OBJT_SWAP_TMPFS pager

This is OBJT_SWAP pager, specialized for tmpfs. Right now, both swap pager
and generic vm code have to explicitly handle swap objects which are tmpfs
vnode v_object, in the special ways. Replace (almost) all such places with
proper methods.

Since VM still needs a notion of the 'swap object', regardless of its
use, add yet another type-classification flag OBJ_SWAP. Set it in
vm_object_allocate() where other type-class flags are set.

This change almost completely eliminates the knowledge of tmpfs from VM,
and opens a way to make OBJT_SWAP_TMPFS loadable from tmpfs.ko.

Close races in vm object chain traversal for unlock

We were unlocking the vm object before reading the backing_object field.
In the meantime, the object could be freed and reused. This could cause
us to go off the rails in the object chain traversal, failing to unlock
the rest of the objects in the original chain and corrupting the lock
state of the victim chain.

Relax the vm object locking. Use a read lock.

Sponsored by: EMC / Isilon Storage Division


# 89f6b863 08-Mar-2013 Attilio Rao <attilio@FreeBSD.org>

Switch the vm_object mutex to be a rwlock. This will enable in the
future further optimizations where the vm_object lock will be held
in read mode most of the time the page cache resident pool of pages
are accessed for reading purposes.

The change is mostly mechanical but few notes are reported:
* The KPI changes as follow:
- VM_OBJECT_LOCK() -> VM_OBJECT_WLOCK()
- VM_OBJECT_TRYLOCK() -> VM_OBJECT_TRYWLOCK()
- VM_OBJECT_UNLOCK() -> VM_OBJECT_WUNLOCK()
- VM_OBJECT_LOCK_ASSERT(MA_OWNED) -> VM_OBJECT_ASSERT_WLOCKED()
(in order to avoid visibility of implementation details)
- The read-mode operations are added:
VM_OBJECT_RLOCK(), VM_OBJECT_TRYRLOCK(), VM_OBJECT_RUNLOCK(),
VM_OBJECT_ASSERT_RLOCKED(), VM_OBJECT_ASSERT_LOCKED()
* The vm/vm_pager.h namespace pollution avoidance (forcing requiring
sys/mutex.h in consumers directly to cater its inlining functions
using VM_OBJECT_LOCK()) imposes that all the vm/vm_pager.h
consumers now must include also sys/rwlock.h.
* zfs requires a quite convoluted fix to include FreeBSD rwlocks into
the compat layer because the name clash between FreeBSD and solaris
versions must be avoided.
At this purpose zfs redefines the vm_object locking functions
directly, isolating the FreeBSD components in specific compat stubs.

The KPI results heavilly broken by this commit. Thirdy part ports must
be updated accordingly (I can think off-hand of VirtualBox, for example).

a device pager (OBJT_DEVICE) object in that it uses fictitious pages to

# 3364c323 23-Jun-2009 Konstantin Belousov <kib@FreeBSD.org>

Implement global and per-uid accounting of the anonymous memory. Add
rlimit RLIMIT_SWAP that limits the amount of swap that may be reserved
for the uid.

The accounting information (charge) is associated with either map entry,
or vm object backing the entry, assuming the object is the first one
in the shadow chain and entry does not require COW. Charge is moved
from entry to object on allocation of the object, e.g. during the mmap,
assuming the object is allocated, or on the first page fault on the
entry. It moves back to the entry on forks due to COW setup.

The per-entry granularity of accounting makes the charge process fair
for processes that change uid during lifetime, and decrements charge
for proper uid when region is unmapped.

The interface of vm_pager_allocate(9) is extended by adding struct ucred *,
that is used to charge appropriate uid when allocation if performed by
kernel, e.g. md(4).

Several syscalls, among them is fork(2), may now return ENOMEM when
global or per-uid limits are enforced.

Remove unnecessary locking around vn_fullpath(). The vnode lock for the
vnode in question does not need to be held. All the data structures used
during the name lookup are protected by the global name cache lock.
Instead, the caller merely needs to ensure a reference is held on the
vnode (such as vhold()) to keep it from being freed.

In the case of procfs' <pid>/file entry, grab the process lock while we
gain a new reference (via vhold()) on p_textvp to fully close races with
execve(2).

For the kern.proc.vmmap sysctl handler, use a shared vnode lock around
the call to VOP_GETATTR() rather than an exclusive lock.

Jumbo-commit to enhance 32 bit application support on 64 bit kernels.
This is good enough to be able to run a RELENG_4 gdb binary against
a RELENG_4 application, along with various other tools (eg: 4.x gcore).
We use this at work.

ia32_reg.[ch]: handle the 32 bit register file format, used by ptrace,

procfs_*regs.c: vary the format of proc/XXX/*regs depending on the client

procfs_map.c: Don't print a 64 bit value to 32 bit consumers, or their
sscanf fails. They expect an unsigned long.
imgact_elf.c: produce a valid 32 bit coredump for 32 bit apps.
sys_process.c: handle 32 bit consumers debugging 32 bit targets. Note
that 64 bit consumers can still debug 32 bit targets.

IA64 has got stubs for ia32_reg.c.

Make our v_usecount vnode reference count work identically to the
original BSD code. The association between the vnode and the vm_object
no longer includes reference counts. The major difference is that
vm_object's are no longer freed gratuitiously from the vnode, and so
once an object is created for the vnode, it will last as long as the
vnode does.

When a vnode object reference count is incremented, then the underlying
vnode reference count is incremented also. The two "objects" are now
more intimately related, and so the interactions are now much less
complex.

When vnodes are now normally placed onto the free queue with an object still
attached. The rundown of the object happens at vnode rundown time, and
happens with exactly the same filesystem semantics of the original VFS
code. There is absolutely no need for vnode_pager_uncache and other
travesties like that anymore.

A side-effect of these changes is that SMP locking should be much simpler,
the I/O copyin/copyout optimizations work, NFS should be more ponderable,
and further work on layered filesystems should be less frustrating, because
of the totally coherent management of the vnode objects and vnodes.

Please be careful with your system while running this code, but I would
greatly appreciate feedback as soon a reasonably possible.

Don't try to obtain an excluive lock on the vm map, since a deadlock might
occur if the process owning the map is wiring pages.


# 1fd0b058 02-Aug-1997 Bruce Evans <bde@FreeBSD.org>

Removed unused #includes.

Don't include <sys/ioctl.h> in the kernel. Stage 1: don't include
it when it is not used. In most cases, the reasons for including it
went away when the special ioctl headers became self-sufficient.


# 6875d254 22-Feb-1997 Peter Wemm <peter@FreeBSD.org>

Back out part 1 of the MCFH that changed $Id$ to $FreeBSD$. We are not
ready for it yet.

This is the kernel Lite/2 commit. There are some requisite userland
changes, so don't expect to be able to run the kernel as-is (very well)
without the appropriate Lite/2 userland changes.

The system boots and can mount UFS filesystems.

Untested: ext2fs, msdosfs, NFS
Known problems: Incorrect Berkeley ID strings in some files.
Mount_std mounts will not work until the getfsent
library routine is changed.

Change the map entry flags from bitfields to bitmasks. Allows
for some code simplification.


# 1130b656 14-Jan-1997 Jordan K. Hubbard <jkh@FreeBSD.org>

Make the long-awaited change from $Id$ to $FreeBSD$

This will make a number of things easier in the future, as well as (finally!)
avoiding the Id-smashing problem which has plagued developers for so long.

Boy, I'm glad we're not using sup anymore. This update would have been
insane otherwise.


# d7000384 29-Oct-1996 John Dyson <dyson@FreeBSD.org>

Fix a potential deadlock from the previous commit.


# 56673451 29-Oct-1996 John Dyson <dyson@FreeBSD.org>

Fix the /proc/???/map file so that it is possible to read an arbitrarily
large process map. Another commit will follow to fix a problem just found
during this one... Sorry!!! :-(.


# 3c087a2f 27-Jul-1996 John Dyson <dyson@FreeBSD.org>

Modify slightly the output from the map file in /proc. Now the
executable bit is shown.


# 34e95a26 27-Jul-1996 John Dyson <dyson@FreeBSD.org>

Under certain circumstances, reading the /proc/*/map file can
crash the system. Nonexistant objects were not handled correctly.


# 6ead3edd 17-Jun-1996 John Dyson <dyson@FreeBSD.org>

Clean-up the new VM map procfs code, and also add support for executable
format file "etype". It contains a description of the binary type for
a process.


# 975dcaa9 17-Jun-1996 John Dyson <dyson@FreeBSD.org>

This file is the "meat" of the process address space capability. If you
would like other things added, just ask!!! It might be pretty easy to add.
