Bring in MemGuard, a very simple and small replacement allocator designed to help detect tamper-after-free scenarios, a problem more and more common and likely with multithreaded kernels where race conditions are more prevalent. Currently MemGuard can only take over malloc()/realloc()/free() for particular (a) malloc type(s) and the code brought in with this change manually instruments it to take over M_SUBPROC allocations as an example. If you are planning to use it, for now you must: 1) Put "options DEBUG_MEMGUARD" in your kernel config. 2) Edit src/sys/kern/kern_malloc.c manually, look for "XXX CHANGEME" and replace the M_SUBPROC comparison with the appropriate malloc type (this might require additional but small/simple code modification if, say, the malloc type is declared out of scope). 3) Build and install your kernel. Tune vm.memguard_divisor boot-time tunable which is used to scale how much of kmem_map you want to allott for MemGuard's use. The default is 10, so kmem_size/10. ToDo: 1) Bring in a memguard(9) man page. 2) Better instrumentation (e.g., boot-time) of MemGuard taking over malloc types. 3) Teach UMA about MemGuard to allow MemGuard to override zone allocations too. 4) Improve MemGuard if necessary. This work is partly based on some old patches from Ian Dowse.

Well, it seems that I pre-maturely removed the "All rights reserved" statement from some files, so re-add it for the moment, until the related legalese is sorted out. This change affects: sys/kern/kern_mbuf.c sys/vm/memguard.c sys/vm/memguard.h sys/vm/uma.h sys/vm/uma_core.c sys/vm/uma_dbg.c sys/vm/uma_dbg.h sys/vm/uma_int.h
