The actual bug is not yet addressed as it will get much easier after other
problems are addressed (most notably rename contract).
The only affected in-tree consumer is realpath. Everyone else happens to be

namei de facto expects that the naimeidata object is properly initialized,
but at the same time it mixes consumer-passable and internal flags, while
tolerating this part by explicitly clearing some of them.
Tighten the interface instead.
While here renumber the flags and denote the gap between the 2 variants.
Try to piggy back th renumber on the just bumped __FreeBSD_version.
This means there is no expectation lookup will purge the terminal entry,
which simplifies lockless lookup.

Almost all consumers use the NDF_ONLY_PNBUF macro, making them avoidably branch
a lot in the NDFREE routine. Also note most of them should not need to call
any cleanup anyway as they don't request HASBUF.
Provides full scalability as long as all visited filesystems support the
lookup and terminal vnodes are different.
Inner workings are explained in the comment above cache_fplookup.
Capabilities and fd-relative lookups are not supported and will result in
immediate fallback to regular code.
Symlinks, ".." in the path, mount points without support for lockless lookup
and mismatched counters will result in an attempt to get a reference to the
directory vnode and continue in regular lookup. If this fails, the entire
operation is aborted and regular lookup starts from scratch. However, care is
taken that data is not copied again from userspace.

The new structure is copy-on-write. With the assumption that path lookups are
significantly more frequent than chdirs and chrooting this is a win.
This provides stable root and jail root vnodes without the need to reference
them on lookup, which in turn means less work on globally shared structures.
Note this also happens to fix a bug where jail vnode was never referenced,
meaning subsequent access on lookup could run into use-after-free.

Duplicating the work was putting an avoidable requirement that the filedesc
lock is held across the entire operation (otherwise by the time audit reads
vnode pointers another thread in the same process can chdir somewhere else,
making audit log things using different vnode than the one which will be
used for actual lookup).
Do the obvious thing and pass down vnodes which will be used.
Most notably, we want to make sure we don't clobber any capabilities-related
errors. This is a regression from r357412 (O_SEARCH) that was picked up by

O_SEARCH is defined by POSIX [0] to open a directory for searching, skipping
permissions checks on the directory itself after the initial open(). This is
close to the semantics we've historically applied for O_EXEC on a directory,
which is UB according to POSIX. Conveniently, O_SEARCH on a file is also
explicitly undefined behavior according to POSIX, so O_EXEC would be a fine
choice. The spec goes on to state that O_SEARCH and O_EXEC need not be
distinct values, but they're not defined to be the same value.
This was pointed out as an incompatibility with other systems that had made
its way into libarchive, which had assumed that O_EXEC was an alias for
O_SEARCH.
This defines compatibility O_SEARCH/FSEARCH (equivalent to O_EXEC and FEXEC
respectively) and expands our UB for O_EXEC on a directory. O_EXEC on a
directory is checked in vn_open_vnode already, so for completeness we add a
NOEXECCHECK when O_SEARCH has been specified on the top-level fd and do not
re-check that when descending in namei.

The current vnode layout is not smp-friendly by having frequently read data
avoidably sharing cachelines with very frequently modified fields. In
particular v_iflag inspected for VI_DOOMED can be found in the same line with
v_usecount. Instead make it available in the same cacheline as the v_op, v_data
and v_type which all get read all the time.
v_type is avoidably 4 bytes while the necessary data will easily fit in 1.
Shrinking it frees up 3 bytes, 2 of which get used here to introduce a new
flag field with a new value: VIRF_DOOMED.

When renameat(2) is used with:
- absolute path for to;
- tofd not set to AT_FDCWD;
- the target exists
kern_renameat() requires CAP_UNLINK capability on tofd, but
corresponding namei ni_filecap is not initialized at all because the
lookup is absolute. As result, the check was done against empty filecap
and syscall fails erronously.
Fix it by creating a return flags namei member and reporting if the
lookup was absolute, then do not touch to.ni_filecaps at all.

It is possible that we started with a relative path but during the
lookup, found an absolute symlink. In this case, BENEATH handling
code needs the latch, but it is too late to calculate it.
While there, somewhat improve the assertions. Clear the NI_LCF_LATCH
flag when the latch vnode is released, so that asserts know the state.
Assert that there is a latch if we entered beneath+abs path mode,
after the starting point is processed.

Mainly focus on files that use BSD 3-Clause license.
The Software Package Data Exchange (SPDX) group provides a specification
to make it easier for automated tools to detect and summarize well known
opensource licenses. We are gradually adopting the specification, noting
that the tags are considered only advisory and do not, in any way,
superceed or replace the license texts.
Special thanks to Wind River for providing access to "The Duke of
Highlander" tool: an older (2014) run over FreeBSD tree was useful as a
starting point.
Previously, symlinks in FreeBSD were artificially limited to PATH_MAX-2.
Add a short test case to verify the change.

If dotdot lookup does not escape from the file descriptor passed as
the lookup root, we can allow the component traversal. Track the
directories traversed, and check the result of dotdot lookup against
the recorded list of the directory vnodes.
Dotdot lookups are enabled by sysctl vfs.lookup_cap_dotdot, currently
disabled by default until more verification of the approach is done.
Disallow non-local filesystems for dotdot, since remote server might
conspire with the local process to allow it to escape the namespace.
This might be too cautious, provide the knob
vfs.lookup_cap_dotdot_nonlocal to override as well.
