Summary:
Pipes in CloudABI are unidirectional. The reason for this is that
CloudABI attempts to provide a uniform runtime environment across
different flavours of UNIX.
Instead of implementing a custom pipe that is unidirectional, we can
simply reuse Capsicum permission bits to support this. This is nice,
because CloudABI already attempts to restrict permission bits to
correspond with the operations that apply to a certain file descriptor.
Replace kern_pipe() and kern_pipe2() by a single kern_pipe() that takes
a pair of filecaps. These filecaps are passed to the newly introduced
falloc_caps() function that creates the descriptors with rights in
place.
Test Plan:
CloudABI pipes seem to be created with proper rights in place:

falloc_noinstall() followed by finstall() allows you to create and
install file descriptors with custom capabilities. Add falloc_caps()
that can do both of these actions in one go.
This will be used by CloudABI to create pipes with custom capabilities.

- Eliminate the unused ffs function that relied on knowledge of the buf

Summary:
Back in 2005, maxim@ attempted to fix shutdown() to return ENOTCONN in case the socket was not connected (r150152). This had to be rolled back (r150155), as it broke some of the existing programs that depend on this behavior. I reapplied this change on my system and indeed, syslogd failed to start up. I fixed this back in February (279016) and MFC'ed it to the supported stable branches. Apart from that, things seem to work out all right.
Since at least Linux and Mac OS X do the right thing, I'd like to go ahead and give this another try. To keep old copies of syslogd working, only start returning ENOTCONN for recent binaries.
I took a look at the XNU sources and they seem to test against both SS_ISCONNECTED, SS_ISCONNECTING and SS_ISDISCONNECTING, instead of just SS_ISCONNECTED. That seams reasonable, so let's do the same.

nothing would re-adjust the b_data, which breaks buffer management

from x86 to use smp_ipi_mtx spin lock not only for smp_rendezvous_cpus()
but also for the MD cache invalidation, TLB demapping and remote register
reading IPIs due to the following reasons:
- The cross-IPI SMP deadlock x86 otherwise is subject to can't happen on
sparc64. That's because on sparc64, spin locks don't disable interrupts
completely but only raise the processor interrupt level to PIL_TICK. This
means that IPIs still get delivered and direct dispatch IPIs such as the
cache invalidation etc. IPIs in question are still executed.
- In smp_rendezvous_cpus(), smp_ipi_mtx is held not only while sending an
IPI_RENDEZVOUS, but until all CPUs have processed smp_rendezvous_action().
Consequently, smp_ipi_mtx may be locked for an extended amount of time as
queued IPIs (as opposed to the direct ones) such as IPI_RENDEZVOUS are
scheduled via a soft interrupt. Moreover, given that this soft interrupt
is only delivered at PIL_RENDEZVOUS, processing of smp_rendezvous_action()
on a target may be interrupted by f. e. a tick interrupt at PIL_TICK, in
turn leading to the target in question trying to send an IPI by itself
while IPI_RENDEZVOUS isn't fully handled, yet, and, thus, resulting in a
deadlock.
o As mentioned in the commit message of r245850, on least some sun4u platforms
concurrent sending of IPIs by different CPUs is fatal. Therefore, hold the
reintroduced MD ipi_mtx also while delivering cross-traps via MI helpers,
i. e. ipi_{all_but_self,cpu,selected}().
o Akin to x86, let the last CPU to process cpu_mp_bootstrap() set smp_started
instead of the BSP in cpu_mp_unleash(). This ensures that all APs actually
are started, when smp_started is no longer 0.
o In all MD and MI IPI helpers, check for smp_started == 1 rather than for
smp_cpus > 1 or nothing at all. This avoids races during boot causing IPIs
trying to be delivered to APs that in fact aren't up and running, yet.
While at it, move setting of the cpu_ipi_{selected,single}() pointers to
the appropriate delivery functions from mp_init() to cpu_mp_start() where
it's better suited and allows to get rid of the global isjbus variable.
o Given that now concurrent IPI delivery no longer is possible, also nuke
the delays before completely disabling interrupts again in the CPU-specific
cross-trap delivery functions, previously giving other CPUs a window for
sending IPIs on their part. Actually, we now should be able to entirely get
rid of completely disabling interrupts in these functions. Such a change
needs more testing, though.
o In {s,}tick_get_timecount_mp(), make the {s,}tick variable static. While not
necessary for correctness, this avoids page faults when accessing the stack
of a foreign CPU as {s,}tick now is locked into the TLBs as part of static
kernel data. Hence, {s,}tick_get_timecount_mp() always execute as fast as
possible, avoiding jitter.

most recently used buffer when we are under paging pressure. This is
a perversion of the buffer and page replacement algorithms and recent
improvements to the page daemon have rendered it unnecessary. In the
event that low-memory deadlocks become an issue it would be possible
to make a daemon or event handler that performs a similar action on
the oldest buffers rather than the newest. Since the buf cache
is analogous to the page cache and some minimum working set is desired
another possibility is to simply shrink the minimum working set which
has less downside now that file pages are not directly mapped.

Summary:
In a runtime that is purely based on capability-based security, there is
a strong emphasis on how programs start their execution. We need to make
sure that we execute an new program with an exact set of file
descriptors, ensuring that credentials are not leaked into the process
accidentally.
Providing the right file descriptors is just half the problem. There
also needs to be a framework in place that gives meaning to these file
descriptors. How does a CloudABI mail server know which of the file
descriptors corresponds to the socket that receives incoming emails?
Furthermore, how will this mail server acquire its configuration
parameters, as it cannot open a configuration file from a global path on
disk?
CloudABI solves this problem by replacing traditional string command
line arguments by tree-like data structure consisting of scalars,
sequences and mappings (similar to YAML/JSON). In this structure, file
descriptors are treated as a first-class citizen. When calling exec(),
file descriptors are passed on to the new executable if and only if they
are referenced from this tree structure. See the cloudabi-run(1) man
page for more details and examples (sysutils/cloudabi-utils).
Fortunately, the kernel does not need to care about this tree structure
at all. The C library is responsible for serializing and deserializing,
but also for extracting the list of referenced file descriptors. The
system call only receives a copy of the serialized data and a layout of
what the new file descriptor table should look like:
int proc_exec(int execfd, const void *data, size_t datalen, const int *fds,
size_t fdslen);
This change introduces a set of fd*_remapped() functions:
- fdcopy_remapped() pulls a copy of a file descriptor table, remapping
all of the file descriptors according to the provided mapping table.
- fdinstall_remapped() replaces the file descriptor table of the process
by the copy created by fdcopy_remapped().
- fdescfree_remapped() frees the table in case we aborted before
fdinstall_remapped().
We then add a function exec_copyin_data_fds() that builds on top these
functions. It copies in the data and constructs a new remapped file
descriptor. This is used by cloudabi_sys_proc_exec().
Test Plan:
cloudabi-run(1) is capable of spawning processes successfully, providing
it data and file descriptors. procstat -f seems to confirm all is good.
Regular FreeBSD processes also work properly.

current value. It is believed that the change is the real fix for the
issue which was covered over by the r252683.
With the current code, if the interrupt handler sets it_need between
read and consequent reset, the update could be lost and
ithread_execute_handlers() would not be called in response to the lost
update.
The r252683 could have hide the issue since at the moment of commit,
atomic_load_acq_int() did locked cmpxchg on the variable, which puts
the cache line into the exclusive owned state and clears store
buffers. Then the immediate store of zero has very high chance of
reusing the exclusive state of the cache line and make the load and
store sequence operate as atomic swap.
For now, add the acq+rel fence immediately after the swap, to not
disturb current (but excessive) ordering. Acquire is needed for the
ih_need reads after the load, while release does not serve a useful
purpose [*].

time between ntp_adjtime() clock offset adjustments. This eliminates spurious
frequency steering after a large clock step (such as a 1970->2015 step on a
system with no battery-backed clock hardware).
This problem was discovered after the import of ntpd 4.2.8, which does things
in a slightly different (but still correct) order than the 4.2.4 we had
previously. In particular, 4.2.4 would step the clock then immediately after
use ntp_adjtime() to set the frequency and offset to zero, which captured the
post-step time-of-day as a side effect. In 4.2.8, ntpd sets frequency and
offset to zero before any initial clock step, capturing the time as 1970-ish,
then when it next calls ntp_adjtime() it's with a non-zero offset measurement.
This non-zero value gets multiplied by the apparent 45-year interval, which
blows up into a completely bogus frequency steer. That gets clamped to
500ppm, but that's still enough to make the clock drift so fast that ntpd has
to keep stepping it every few minutes to compensate.
Previously vputx would detect the condition and clear the flag.
With this change it is invalid to have both v_usecount > 0 and the flag
set. Assert the condition is met in all revlevant places.
