This enables very cheap read sections with free-to-use latencies and memory
overhead similar to epoch. On a recent AMD platform a read section cost
1ns vs 5ns for the default SMR. On Xeon the numbers should be more like 1
ns vs 11. The memory consumption should be proportional to the product
of the free rate and 2*1/hz while normal SMR consumption is proportional
to the product of free rate and maximum read section time.
While here refactor the code to make future additions more

swap_pager_swapoff_object()'s goal is to allocate pages for all valid
swap blocks belonging to the object, for which there is no resident
page. If the page corresponding to a block is already resident and
valid, the block can simply be discarded.
The existing implementation tries to minimize the number of I/Os used.
For each cluster of swap blocks, it finds maximal runs of valid swap
blocks not resident in memory, and valid resident pages. During this
processing, the object lock may be dropped in several places: when
calling getpages, or when blocking on a busy page in
vm_page_grab_pages(). While the lock is dropped, another thread may
free swap blocks, causing getpages to page in stale data.

readahead capability to perform clustering rather than doing it
ourselves. The simplies the code a bit without reintroducing the old

Callers to vm_object_collapse() now will reliably wait for a collapse to finish
so that the backing chain is as short as possible before other decisions are
made that may inflate the object chain. For example, split, coalesce, etc.
It is now safe to run fault concurrently with collapse. It is safe to increase

This change makes collapse more reliable as a secondary benefit. The primary

Linux mmap rejects mmap() on a write-only file with EACCES.
linux_mmap_common currently does a fun dance to grab the fp associated with
the passed in fd, validates it, then drops the reference and calls into
kern_mmap(). Doing so is perhaps both fragile and premature; there's still
plenty of chance for the request to get rejected with a more appropriate
error, and it's prone to a race where the file we ultimately mmap has
changed after it drops its referenced.
This change alleviates the need to do this by providing a kern_mmap variant
that allows the caller to inspect the fp just before calling into the fileop
layer. The callback takes flags, prot, and maxprot as one could imagine
scenarios where any of these, in conjunction with the file itself, may
influence a caller's decision.
The file type check in the linux compat layer has been removed; EINVAL is
seemingly not an appropriate response to the file not being a vnode or
device. The fileop layer will reject the operation with ENODEV if it's not
supported, which more closely matches the common linux description of

Handle this by setting PGA_DEQUEUE when a managed page's wire count

flag in PGA_QUEUE_OP_MASK set, it creates a batch queue entry for that
page, but in so doing it does not modify the page itself and thus racing
with a concurrent free of the page is harmless. The flag is advisory;
the page daemon still checks for wirings after acquiring the object and
page xbusy locks.
vm_page_unwire_managed() now clears PGA_DEQUEUE on a 1->0 transition.

- The swapout daemon always activates a referenced page, but the page
daemon only does so when the containing object is mapped at least

The main purpose of swapout_deactivate_pages() is to shrink the number

Summary:
This matches r351198 from amd64. This only applies to AIM64 and Book-E.
On AIM64 it short-circuits with one domain, to behave similar to
existing. Otherwise it will allocate 16MB huge pages to hold the page
array, across all NUMA domains. On the first domain it will shift the
page array base up, to "upper-align" the page array in that domain, so
as to reduce the number of pages from the next domain appearing in this
domain. After the first domain, subsequent domains will be allocated in
full 16MB pages, until the final domain, which can be short. This means
some inner domains may have pages accounted in earlier domains.
On Book-E the page array is setup at MMU bootstrap time so that it's
always mapped in TLB1, on both 32-bit and 64-bit. This reduces the TLB0
overhead for touching the vm_page_array, which reduces up to one TLB
miss per array access.
Since page_range (vm_page_startup()) is no longer used on Book-E but is on
32-bit AIM, mark the variable as potentially unused, rather than using a
nasty #if defined() list.

In r353734 the use of the page caches was limited to systems with a

issues reported with the system not able to keep up with memory pressure
in cases where it had been able to do so prior to the addition of the
direct free pool cache. This change re-enables those caches.
The change modifies uma_zone_set_maxcache(), which was introduced
specifically for the page cache zones. Rather than using it to limit
only the full bucket cache, have it also set uz_count_max to provide an
upper bound on the per-CPU cache size that is consistent with the number
of items requested. Remove its return value since it has no use.
Enable the page cache zones unconditionally, and limit them to 0.1% of
the domain's pages. The limit can be overridden by the
vm.pgcache_zone_max tunable as before.
Change the item size parameter passed to uma_zcache_create() to the
correct size, and stop setting UMA_ZONE_MAXBUCKET. This allows the page
cache buckets to be adaptively sized, like the rest of UMA's caches.
This also causes the initial bucket size to be small, so only systems

Centralize calculation of signal and ucode delivered on unhandled page

always uses the signal numbers and error codes calculated in
consistent MI way.
This introduces the protection fault compatibility sysctls to all
non-x86 architectures which did not have that bug, but apparently they
were already much more wrong in selecting delivered signals on
protection violations.
Change the delivered signal for accesses to mapped area after the
backing object was truncated. According to POSIX description for
mmap(2):
The system shall always zero-fill any partial page at the end of an
object. Further, the system shall never write out any modified
portions of the last page of an object which are beyond its
end. References within the address range starting at pa and
continuing for len bytes to whole pages following the end of an
object shall result in delivery of a SIGBUS signal.
An implementation may generate SIGBUS signals when a reference
would cause an error in the mapped object, such as out-of-space
condition.
Adjust according to the description, keeping the existing
compatibility code for SIGSEGV/SIGBUS on protection failures.
For situations where kernel cannot handle page fault due to resource
limit enforcement, SIGBUS with a new error code BUS_OBJERR is
delivered. Also, provide a new error code SEGV_PKUERR for SIGSEGV on
amd64 due to protection key access violation.
vm_fault_hold() is renamed to vm_fault(). Fixed some nits in

There are several mechanisms by which a vm_page reference is held,
preventing the page from being freed back to the page allocator. In
particular, holding the page's object lock is sufficient to prevent the
page from being freed; holding the busy lock or a wiring is sufficent as
well. These references are protected by the page lock, which must
therefore be acquired for many per-page operations. This results in
false sharing since the page locks are external to the vm_page
structures themselves and each lock protects multiple structures.
Transition to using an atomically updated per-page reference counter.
The object's reference is counted using a flag bit in the counter. A
second flag bit is used to atomically block new references via
pmap_extract_and_hold() while removing managed mappings of a page.
Thus, the reference count of a page is guaranteed not to increase if the
page is unbusied, unmapped, and the object's write lock is held. As
a consequence of this, the page lock no longer protects a page's
identity; operations which move pages between objects are now
synchronized solely by the objects' locks.
The vm_page_wire() and vm_page_unwire() KPIs are changed. The former
requires that either the object lock or the busy lock is held. The
latter no longer has a return value and may free the page if it releases
the last reference to that page. vm_page_unwire_noq() behaves the same
as before; the caller is responsible for checking its return value and
freeing or enqueuing the page as appropriate. vm_page_wire_mapped() is
introduced for use in pmap_extract_and_hold(). It fails if the page is
concurrently being unmapped, typically triggering a fallback to the
fault handler. vm_page_wire() no longer requires the page lock and
vm_page_unwire() now internally acquires the page lock when releasing
the last wiring of a page (since the page lock still protects a page's
queue state). In particular, synchronization details are no longer
leaked into the caller.
The change excises the page lock from several frequently executed code
paths. In particular, vm_object_terminate() no longer bounces between
page locks as it releases an object's pages, and direct I/O and
sendfile(SF_NOCACHE) completions no longer require the page lock. In
these latter cases we now get linear scalability in the common scenario
where different threads are operating on different files.
__FreeBSD_version is bumped. The DRM ports have been updated to
accomodate the KPI changes.

Queue operations on a page use the page lock when updating the page to
reflect the desired queue state, and the page queue lock when physically
enqueuing or dequeuing a page. Multiple pages share a given page lock,
but queue state is per-page; this false sharing results in heavy lock
contention.
Take a small step towards the use of atomic_cmpset to synchronize
updates to per-page queue state by introducing vm_page_pqstate_cmpset()
and using it in the page daemon. In the longer term the plan is to stop
using the page lock to protect page identity and rely only on the object
and page busy locks. However, since the page daemon avoids acquiring
the object lock except when necessary, some synchronization with a
concurrent free of the page is required. vm_page_pqstate_cmpset() can
be used to ensure that queue state updates are successful only if the
page is not scheduled for a dequeue, which is sufficient for the page
daemon.
Add vm_page_swapqueue(), which moves a page from one queue to another
using vm_page_pqstate_cmpset(). Use it in the active queue scan, which
does not use the object lock. Modify vm_page_dequeue_deferred() to
use vm_page_pqstate_cmpset() as well.

The page daemon periodically invokes uma_reclaim() to reclaim cached
items from each zone when the system is under memory pressure. This
is important since the size of these caches is unbounded by default.
However it also results in bursts of high latency when allocating from
heavily used zones as threads miss in the per-CPU caches and must
access the keg in order to allocate new items.
With r340405 we maintain an estimate of each zone's usage of its
(per-NUMA domain) cache of full buckets. Start making use of this
estimate to avoid reclaiming the entire cache when under memory
pressure. In particular, introduce TRIM, DRAIN and DRAIN_CPU
verbs for uma_reclaim() and uma_zone_reclaim(). When trimming, only
items in excess of the estimate are reclaimed. Draining a zone
reclaims all of the cached full buckets (the previous behaviour of
uma_reclaim()), and may further drain the per-CPU caches in extreme
cases.
Now, when under memory pressure, the page daemon will trim zones
rather than draining them. As a result, heavily used zones do not incur
bursts of bucket cache misses following reclamation, but large, unused
caches will be reclaimed as before.

vm_page_unwire() callers must explicitly determine whether to free the
page once the last reference to the page is released.
This change removes the KPIs which directly manipulate hold_count.
Functions such as vm_fault_quick_hold_pages() now return wired pages
instead. Since r328977 the overhead of maintaining LRU for wired pages
is lower, and in many cases vm_fault_quick_hold_pages() callers would
swap holds for wirings on the returned pages anyway, so with this change
we remove a number of page lock acquisitions.
No functional change is intended. __FreeBSD_version is bumped.

Pages with PG_PCPU_CACHE set cannot have been allocated from a
reservation, so as an optimization, skip the call to
vm_reserv_free_page() in this case. Otherwise, the access of
the corresponding reservation structure often results in a cache
miss.

after the one where the possible block allocation begins, and allocate
a larger number of blocks than the current limit. This does not affect
the limit on minimum allocation size, which still cannot exceed
BLIST_MAX_ALLOC.
Use this change to modify swp_pager_getswapspace and its callers, so
that they can allocate more than BLIST_MAX_ALLOC blocks if they are
available.

pmap_ts_referenced returns a count, not a boolean, and is supposed to
have int as the return type not boolean_t.
This worked previously because boolean_t is an int typedef.

When QUEUE_MACRO_DEBUG_TRASH is configured, removing a queue element
invalidates its queue linkage pointers. vm_pageout_collect_batch()
was relying on these pointers remaining valid after a removal, so
modify it to fetch the next queued page before dequeuing the current
page.

Only free pages to the cache when they were allocated from that cache.
This mitigates rapid fragmentation of physical memory seen during
poudriere's dependency calculation phase. In particular, pages
belonging to broken reservations are no longer freed to the per-CPU
cache, so they get a chance to coalesce with freed pages during the
break. Otherwise, the optimized CoW handler may create object
chains in which multiple objects contain pages from the same
reservation, and the order in which we do object termination means
that the reservation is broken before all of those pages are freed,
so some of them end up in the per-CPU cache and thus permanently
fragment physical memory.
The flag may also be useful for eliding calls to vm_reserv_free_page(),
thus avoiding memory accesses for data that is likely not present
in the CPU caches.

Use it to indicate whether the page may be safely freed following
its removal from the object. Also change vm_page_remove() to assume
that the page's object pointer is non-NULL, and have callers perform
this check instead.
This is a step towards an implementation of an atomic reference counter
for each physical page structure.
