Log:
Add some more items:
- Claim TrustedBSD locking. This isn't in the tree yet, but will begin
to migrate in in a month or so, and I am asserting to myself that it
will be locked when it arrives :-).
- Assign a variety of VFS locking-related tasks to Jeff Roberson. He
volunteered to work on these at BSDCon, so as a personal favor to him,
I'm making sure he can't forget. While I'm at it, add an entity for
him. The tasks he described include:
- Cleaning up locking within the vnode, including documenting
the various implicit and explicit locks there.
- Moving to explicit counting of soft references.
- Move towards using sx locks instead of lockmgr once this cleanup
is done.
- Moving towards being able to perform VOP_GETATTR() shared,
to reduce lock contention.
- Generally review vnode and VFS locking for SMP-safety.
