:> With Alfred's permission, remove vm_mtx in favor of a fine-grained approach :> (this commit is just the first stage). Also add various GIANT_ macros to :> formalize the removal of Giant, making it easy to test in a more piecemeal :> fashion. These macros will allow us to test fine-grained locks to a degree :> before removing Giant, and also after, and to remove Giant in a piecemeal :> fashion via sysctl's on those subsystems which the authors believe can :> operate without Giant. : :Argh. /me kicks DNS. Sorry my mail took so long to get sent out, but there are :some minor nits with this. : :-- : :John Baldwin <jhb@FreeBSD.org> -- http://www.FreeBSD.org/~jhb/ No problem, I have all day to clean it up. -Matt To Unsubscribe: send mail to majordomo@FreeBSD.org with "unsubscribe cvs-all" in the body of the message
