Zero copy send and receive fixes:
- On receive, vm_map_lookup() needs to trigger the creation of a shadow object. To make that happen, call vm_map_lookup() with PROT_WRITE instead of PROT_READ in vm_pgmoveco(). - On send, a shadow object will be created by the vm_map_lookup() in vm_fault(), but vm_page_cowfault() will delete the original page from the backing object rather than simply letting the legacy COW mechanism take over. In other words, the new page should be added to the shadow object rather than replacing the old page in the backing object. (i.e. vm_page_cowfault() should not be called in this case.) We accomplish this by making sure fs.object == fs.first_object before calling vm_page_cowfault() in vm_fault(). Submitted by: gallatin, alc Tested by: ken
