Also move the insertion of the request to after the request is validated,
there's still looks like there may be some problems if an invalid address
is passed to the aio routines, basically a possible leak or having a
not completely initialized structure on the queue may still be possible.
A new sig macro was made _SIG_VALID to check the validity of a signal,

used for up to "vfs.aio.max_buf_aio" of the requests. If a request
size is MAXPHYS, but the request base isn't page aligned, vmapbuf()
will map the end of the user space buffer into the start of the kva
allocated for the next physical buffer. Don't use a physical buffer
in this case. (This change addresses problem report 25617.)
When an aio_read/write() on a raw device has completed, timeout() is
used to schedule a signal to the process. Thus, the reporting is
delayed up to 10 ms (assuming hz is 100). The process might have
terminated in the meantime, causing a trap 12 when attempting to
deliver the signal. Thus, the timeout must be cancelled when removing
the job.
aio jobs in state JOBST_JOBQGLOBAL should be removed from the

During process rundown, some aio jobs might move from one list to a

A call to BUF_KERNPROC() is needed after obtaining a physical buffer

related code from aio_read() and aio_write(). This field was

mtx_enter(lock, type) becomes:
mtx_lock(lock) for sleep locks (MTX_DEF-initialized locks)
mtx_lock_spin(lock) for spin locks (MTX_SPIN-initialized)
similarily, for releasing a lock, we now have:
mtx_unlock(lock) for MTX_DEF and mtx_unlock_spin(lock) for MTX_SPIN.
We change the caller interface for the two different types of locks
because the semantics are entirely different for each case, and this
makes it explicitly clear and, at the same time, it rids us of the
extra `type' argument.
The enter->lock and exit->unlock change has been made with the idea
that we're "locking data" and not "entering locked code" in mind.
Further, remove all additional "flags" previously passed to the
lock acquire/release routines with the exception of two:
MTX_QUIET and MTX_NOSWITCH
The functionality of these flags is preserved and they can be passed
to the lock/unlock routines by calling the corresponding wrappers:
mtx_{lock, unlock}_flags(lock, flag(s)) and
mtx_{lock, unlock}_spin_flags(lock, flag(s)) for MTX_DEF and MTX_SPIN
locks, respectively.
Re-inline some lock acq/rel code; in the sleep lock case, we only
inline the _obtain_lock()s in order to ensure that the inlined code
fits into a cache line. In the spin lock case, we inline recursion and
actually only perform a function call if we need to spin. This change
has been made with the idea that we generally tend to avoid spin locks
and that also the spin locks that we do have and are heavily used
(i.e. sched_lock) do recurse, and therefore in an effort to reduce
function call overhead for some architectures (such as alpha), we
inline recursion for this case.

a kevent upon completion of the I/O. Specifically, introduce a new type

then sigev_notify_kqueue names the kqueue that should receive the event
and sigev_value contains the "void *" is copied into the kevent's udata
field.
In contrast to the existing interface, this one: 1) works on
the Alpha 2) avoids the extra copyin() call for the kevent because all
of the information needed is in the sigevent and 3) could be
applied to request a single kevent upon completion of an entire lio_listio().
