http://people.freebsd.org/~des/software/vm_zone-20010122.diff This replaces the simplelock in vm_zone with a mutex, and adds a subsystem mutex that must be held when manipulating zlist (which is now an SLIST). Stuff that remains to be done: - use atomic operations for updating the statistics counters. - implement vm_zone_init2() and find the right place to call it from, to remove the need for zinitna(). - make the rest of the VM system thread-safe so we can dispense with the Giant hackery in zinitna() and _zget(). - add a mail reader (accessible through the sysctl interface).
