that the feature can be enabled during the boot process. Note the
continued limitation that FreeBSD fails so rapidly with this setting
enabled that it's hard to narrow down particular failures for
correction; we really need per-malloc type failure rates.

in a debugging feature causing M_NOWAIT allocations to fail at
a specified rate. This can be useful for detecting poor
handling of M_NOWAIT: the most frequent problems I've bumped
into are unconditional deference of the pointer even though
it's NULL, and hangs as a result of a lost event where memory
for the event couldn't be allocated. Two sysctls are added:
debug.malloc.failure_rate
How often to generate a failure: if set to 0 (default), this
feature is disabled. Otherwise, the frequency of failures --
I've been using 10 (one in ten mallocs fails), but other
popular settings might be much lower or much higher.
debug.malloc.failure_count
Number of times a coerced malloc failure has occurred as a
result of this feature. Useful for tracking what might have
happened and whether failures are being generated.
Useful possible additions: tying failure rate to malloc type,
printfs indicating the thread that experienced the coerced
failure.

a page-worth of mbufs or clusters, but it is MBUF_BUCK_SZ, CLUS_BUCK_SZ
worth of mbufs, clusters.
o Rename {mbuf,clust}_limit to {mbuf,clust}_hiwm and introduce
{mbuf,clust}_lowm, which currently has no effect but will be used
to set the low watermarks.
o Fix netstat so that it can deal with the differently-sized buckets
and teach it about the low watermarks too.
o Make sure the per-cpu stats for an absent CPU has mb_active set to 0,
explicitly.
o Get rid of the allocate refcounts from mbuf map mess. Instead,
just malloc() the refcounts in one shot from mbuf_init()
o Clean up / update comments in subr_mbuf.c

Implement the following checks on freed memory in the bucket path:
- Slab membership
- Alignment
- Duplicate free
This previously was only done if we skipped the buckets. This code will slow
down INVARIANTS a bit, but it is smp safe. The checks were moved out of the
normal path and into hooks supplied in uma_dbg.

of a new request. This will catch any post free/pre alloc modification of
memory, as well as introduce errors for anything that tries to dereference
it as a pointer.
This code takes the form of special init, fini, ctor and dtor routines that
are specificly used by malloc. It is in a seperate file because additional
debugging aids will want to live here as well.

malloc profiling) also modified the set of pre-defined buckets for the
memory allocator. For reasons unknown to me, this resulted in extensive
memory corruption in the kernel, in particular on SMP boxes, so I'm
committing this work-around until Jeff gets a chance to debug it
properly. David Wolfskill pointed me at this commit as the one that
might be a problem; I've been running this code on two dual-processor
burn-in boxes for about 12 hours now, and the rate of panics due to
memory corruption has dropped to zero (from one every five minutes).

information related to bucket size effeciency. Three things are printed on
each row:
Size is the size the user actually asked for rounded to 16 bytes.
Requests is the number of times this size was asked for.
Real Size is the size we actually handed out.
At the end the total memory used and total waste is displayed. Currently my
system displays about 33% wasted memory.
The intent of this code is to gather statistics for tuning the malloc bucket
sizes. It is not intended to be run with INVARIANTS and it is not entirely
mp safe. It can be enabled via 'options MALLOC_PROFILE' which was commited
earlier.

Updated the kmemzones logic such that the ks_size bitmap can be used as an
index into it to report the size of the zone used.
Create the kern.malloc sysctl which replaces the kvm mechanism to report
similar data. This will provide an easy place for statistics aggregation if
malloc_type statistics become per cpu data.
Add some code ifdef'd under MALLOC_PROFILING to facilitate a tool for sizing
the malloc buckets.

The only caller outside of M_ASLEEP was the ata driver, which called both
asleep() and await() with spl-raised, so there was no need for the

order to avoid namespace collision with subr_mchain.c's mb_init(). This
wasn't "fatal" as the mbuf initialization routine mb_init() was local to
subr_mbuf.c which in turn didn't pull in subr_mchain.c's mb_init()
declaration, but it should deffinately be changed now before it creates

introduce a modified allocation mechanism for mbufs and mbuf clusters; one
which can scale under SMP and which offers the possibility of resource
reclamation to be implemented in the future. Notable advantages:
o Reduce contention for SMP by offering per-CPU pools and locks.
o Better use of data cache due to per-CPU pools.
o Much less code cache pollution due to excessively large allocation macros.
o Framework for `grouping' objects from same page together so as to be able
to possibly free wired-down pages back to the system if they are no longer
needed by the network stacks.
Additional things changed with this addition:
- Moved some mbuf specific declarations and initializations from
sys/conf/param.c into mbuf-specific code where they belong.
- m_getclr() has been renamed to m_get_clrd() because the old name is really
confusing. m_getclr() HAS been preserved though and is defined to the new
name. No tree sweep has been done "to change the interface," as the old
name will continue to be supported and is not depracated. The change was
merely done because m_getclr() sounds too much like "m_get a cluster."
- TEMPORARILY disabled mbtypes statistics displaying in netstat(1) and
systat(1) (see TODO below).
- Fixed systat(1) to display number of "free mbufs" based on new per-CPU
stat structures.
- Fixed netstat(1) to display new per-CPU stats based on sysctl-exported
per-CPU stat structures. All infos are fetched via sysctl.
TODO (in order of priority):
- Re-enable mbtypes statistics in both netstat(1) and systat(1) after
introducing an SMP friendly way to collect the mbtypes stats under the
already introduced per-CPU locks (i.e. hopefully don't use atomic() - it
seems too costly for a mere stat update, especially when other locks are
already present).
- Optionally have systat(1) display not only "total free mbufs" but also
"total free mbufs per CPU pool."
- Fix minor length-fetching issues in netstat(1) related to recently
re-enabled option to read mbuf stats from a core file.
- Move reference counters at least for mbuf clusters into an unused portion
of the cluster itself, to save space and need to allocate a counter.
- Look into introducing resource freeing possibly from a kproc.

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.
Create a new malloc type for the witness code and retire from using
the M_DEV type. The new type is called M_WITNESS and is only declared
if WITNESS is enabled.
Begin cleaning up some machdep/mutex.h code - specifically updated the
"optimized" inlined code in alpha/mutex.h and wrote MTX_LOCK_SPIN
and MTX_UNLOCK_SPIN asm macros for the i386/mutex.h as we presently
need those.
Finally, caught up to the interface changes in all sys code.
