asleep() and await() functions split the functionality of msleep() up into
two halves. Only the asleep() half (which is what puts the process on the
sleep queue) actually needs the lock usually passed to msleep() held to
prevent lost wakeups. await() does not need the lock held, so the lock
can be released prior to calling await() and does not need to be passed in
to the await() function. Typical usage of these functions would be as
follows:
mtx_lock(&foo_mtx);
... do stuff ...
asleep(&foo_cond, PRIxx, "foowt", hz);
...
mtx_unlock&foo_mtx);
...

o Relocate kern.suser_permitted to kern.security.suser_permitted.
o Introduce new kern.security.unprivileged_procdebug_permitted, which
(when set to 0) prevents processes without privilege from performing
a variety of inter-process debugging activities. The default is 1,
to provide current behavior.
This feature allows "hardened" systems to disable access to debugging
facilities, which have been associated with a number of past security
vulnerabilities. Previously, while procfs could be unmounted, other
in-kernel facilities (such as ptrace()) were still available. This
setting should not be modified on normal development systems, as it
will result in frustration. Some utilities respond poorly to
failing to get the debugging access they require, and error response
by these utilities may be improved in the future in the name of
beautification.
Note that there are currently some odd interactions with some
facilities, which will need to be resolved before this should be used
in production, including odd interactions with truss and ktrace.
Note also that currently, tracing is permitted on the current process
regardless of this flag, for compatibility with previous
authorization code in various facilities, but that will probably
change (and resolve the odd interactions).

introduce a modified allocation mechanism for mbufs and mbuf clusters; one
which can scale under SMP and which offers the possibility of resource
reclamation to be implemented in the future. Notable advantages:
o Reduce contention for SMP by offering per-CPU pools and locks.
o Better use of data cache due to per-CPU pools.
o Much less code cache pollution due to excessively large allocation macros.
o Framework for `grouping' objects from same page together so as to be able
to possibly free wired-down pages back to the system if they are no longer
needed by the network stacks.
Additional things changed with this addition:
- Moved some mbuf specific declarations and initializations from
sys/conf/param.c into mbuf-specific code where they belong.
- m_getclr() has been renamed to m_get_clrd() because the old name is really
confusing. m_getclr() HAS been preserved though and is defined to the new
name. No tree sweep has been done "to change the interface," as the old
name will continue to be supported and is not depracated. The change was
merely done because m_getclr() sounds too much like "m_get a cluster."
- TEMPORARILY disabled mbtypes statistics displaying in netstat(1) and
systat(1) (see TODO below).
- Fixed systat(1) to display number of "free mbufs" based on new per-CPU
stat structures.
- Fixed netstat(1) to display new per-CPU stats based on sysctl-exported
per-CPU stat structures. All infos are fetched via sysctl.
TODO (in order of priority):
- Re-enable mbtypes statistics in both netstat(1) and systat(1) after
introducing an SMP friendly way to collect the mbtypes stats under the
already introduced per-CPU locks (i.e. hopefully don't use atomic() - it
seems too costly for a mere stat update, especially when other locks are
already present).
- Optionally have systat(1) display not only "total free mbufs" but also
"total free mbufs per CPU pool."
- Fix minor length-fetching issues in netstat(1) related to recently
re-enabled option to read mbuf stats from a core file.
- Move reference counters at least for mbuf clusters into an unused portion
of the cluster itself, to save space and need to allocate a counter.
- Look into introducing resource freeing possibly from a kproc.

The macros declare a strongly typed set. They return elements with the

it becomes possible to trap in ptsstop() in kern/tty_pty.c
if the slave side has never been opened during the life of a kernel.
What happens is that calls to ttyflush() done from ptyioctl() for the

which evaluates the following:
struct pt_ioctl *pti = tp->t_dev->si_drv1;
In order for tp->t_dev to be set, the slave device must first be
opened in ttyopen() [kern/tty.c].
It appears that the only problem is calls to (*tp->t_stop)(tp, <n>),

the filesystem root vnode, which must be accounted for when
determining if the filesystem is busy and then released if it isn't
busy. The old `skipvp' approach required individual filesystem
xxx_unmount functions to re-implement much of vflush()'s logic to
deal with the root vnode.
All 9 filesystems that hold an extra reference on the root vnode
got the logic wrong in the case of forced unmounts, so `umount -f'
would always fail if there were any extra root vnode references.
Fix this issue centrally in vflush(), now that we can.
This commit also fixes a vnode reference leak in devfs, which could
result in idle devfs filesystems that refuse to unmount.

- Require the proc lock be held for killproc() to allow for the vmdaemon to
kill a process when memory is exhausted while holding the lock of the
process to kill.
When people access /dev/tty, locate their controlling tty and return
the dev_t of it to them. This basically makes /dev/tty act like
a variant symlink sort of thing which is much simpler than all the
mucking about with vnodes.
- Since polling should not involve sleeping, keep holding a
process lock upon scanning file descriptors.
- Hold a reference to every file descriptor prior to entering
polling loop in order to avoid lock order reversal between
lockmgr and p_mtx upon calling fdrop() in fo_poll().
(NOTE: this work has not been done for netncp and netsmb
yet because a socket itself has no reference counts.)

The pipe code could not handle running out of kva, it would panic
if that happened. Instead return ENFILE to the application which
is an acceptable error return from pipe(2).
There was some slightly tricky things that needed to be worked on,
namely that the pipe code can 'realloc' the size of the buffer if
it detects that the pipe could use a bit more room. However if it
failed the reallocation it could not cope and would panic. Fix
this by attempting to grow the pipe while holding onto our old
resources. If all goes well free the old resources and use the
new ones, otherwise continue to use the smaller buffer already
allocated.
While I'm here add a few blank lines for style(9) and remove
'register'.

It is the supposed behavior stated in the manpage of sigaction(2), and
Solaris, NetBSD and FreeBSD 3-STABLE correctly do so.
The previous fix against libc_r/uthread/uthread_fork.c fixed the
problem only for the programs linked with libc_r, so back it out and
fix fork(2) itself to help those not linked with libc_r as well.
