15b78ac5d1 Apply the LCONVPATH() to the (old) linux_stat() and linux_lstat() syscalls.
Without it, code has two problems:
- behaviour of the old and new [l]stat are different with regard of
  the /compat/linux
- directly accessing the userspace data from the kernel asks for
  the panics.

e7627b2c62 The ffs_balloc() routines, whan allocating the indirect blocks for
the inode, do the rollback in case the allocation failed (due to
insufficient free space or quota limits). But, the code does leaves the
buffers corresponding to the inoirect blocks on the vnode bufobj list.
This causes several assertion failures (for instance, "ffs_truncate3"
in ffs_truncate()) to fail, and could result in the indirect block
aliasing problem, like writing the context of such blocks to random
disk location.

Remove the buffers from the bufobj properly.

c0523a3bb5 Plug a memory leak. Once any given package (e.g. perl) was installed
we would leak a saved screen for every other package we tried to install
that listed perl as one of its dependencies.  When installing things
like gnome and kde that wound up being a LOT of leaked memory.

Insta-MFC request coming so this can be tested as part of 6.3-RC2...

8af354f6fe The limit on datasize in the install environment is 128M. That's a bit
too small for today's standards.  While loading packages sysinstall
blows past this by a LOT but I think (hope...) that's caused by other
bugs.  I'll look more into why sysinstall's memory use has gotten so
out of control as it loads packages but independent of that there really
is no reason to leave the limits on datasize and stacksize in place.  And
they can cause problems for some of the things "modern packages" might
be doing via pkg_add which gets run by sysinstall and would inherit the
limits.

Another insta-MFC probably coming, this is holding up 6.3-RC2.  Sysinstall's
memory use is so out of control it blows past the current limit before it
finishes loading either of the meta-packages kde or gnome...

100f241571 Trimm out now unused option LK_EXCLUPGRADE from the lockmgr namespace.
This option just adds complexity and the new implementation no longer
will support it, so axing it now that it is unused is probabilly the
better idea.

FreeBSD version is bumped in order to reflect the KPI breakage introduced
by this patch.

In the ports tree, kris found that only old OSKit code uses it, but as
it is thought to work only on 2.x kernels serie, version bumping will
solve any problem.

ebc87e7e0b Add the 'D' and 'M' run time options, and use them to control whether
memory is acquired from the system via sbrk(2) and/or mmap(2).  By default,
use sbrk(2) only, in order to support traditional use of resource limits.
Additionally, when both options are enabled, prefer the data segment to
anonymous mappings, in order to coexist better with large file mappings
in applications on 32-bit platforms.  This change has the potential to
increase memory fragmentation due to the linear nature of the data
segment, but from a performance perspective this is mitigated by the use
of madvise(2). [1]

Add the ability to interpret integer prefixes in MALLOC_OPTIONS
processing.  For example, MALLOC_OPTIONS=lllllllll can now be specified as
MALLOC_OPTIONS=9l.

7a1d78fa3f In order to avoid a huge class of deadlocks (in particular in interactions
with the interlock), owner of the lock should be only curthread or at
least, for its limited usage, NULL which identifies LK_KERNPROC.

The thread "extra argument" for the lockmgr interface is going to be
removed in the near future, but for the moment, just let kernel run for
some days with this check on in order to find potential deadlocking
places around the kernel and fix them.

0417fe5421 Return ESRCH when a kernel stack is queried on a process in execve() --
p_candebug() will return EAGAIN which, if the other process never
leaves execve(), will result in the sysctl spinning and never returning
to userspace.  Processes should always eventually leave execve(), but
spinning in kernel while we wait is bad for countless reasons, and
particularly harmful if execve() itself is deadlocked.

Possibly we should return another error, or return a marker indicating
the thread is in execve() so it can be reported that way in userspace.

df0b82f150 Compare kernel dump header magic with textdump magic using strncmp()
rather than the memcmp() which is used for regular dumps: the
textdump string is one character shorter, so we need to stop
comparing at the end of the string.

b27aa20e8d A partial solution to some of the 'pull the umass device with a
mounted FS' problems.  These are more along the lines of 'avoiding an
avoidable panic' than a complete solution to removable devices.  We
now close the barn door after the horse has gotten lose and has been
hit by a truck, as it were.  The barn no longer catches fire in this
case, but the horse is still dead :-).

The vfs_bio.c fix causes us not to put a failed write back into the
dirty pool if the error returned was ENXIO.  In that case, the buffer
is treated like any other clean buffer that's being retured.  ENXIO
means the device isn't there anymore and will never be there again in
the future, so retrying is futile.

The vfs_mount.c fix treats 'ENXIO' as success for unmounting a file
system.  If the device is gone, retrying later won't help and we'll
never be able to unmount the device.

These two are part of a larger patch set submitted by the author.  The
other patches will be forth coming.  I added comments to these two
patches.

c5860546c4 Fix some bugs in the FreeBSD 4/5/6 pci(4) IOCTLs compatibility code:
- Use the correct offsets when copying out the results of PCIOCGETCONF_OLD.
  This happened to not affect the 64-bit architectures because there the
  addition of pc_domain to struct pcisel didn't change the overall size of
  struct pci_conf. [1]
- Always copy the name and unit information to conf_old so it's also part
  of the output once this information is cached in dinfo.
- Use the correct type for flags in struct pci_match_conf_old. This
  change is more or less cosmetic though.

618c7db30a Add textdump(4) facility, which provides an alternative form of kernel
dump using mechanically generated/extracted debugging output rather than
a simple memory dump.  Current sources of debugging output are:

- DDB output capture buffer, if there is captured output to save
- Kernel message buffer
- Kernel configuration, if included in kernel
- Kernel version string
- Panic message

Textdumps are stored in swap/dump partitions as with regular dumps, but
are laid out as ustar files in order to allow multiple parts to be stored
as a stream of sequentially written blocks.  Blocks are written out in
reverse order, as the size of a textdump isn't known a priori.  As with
regular dumps, they will be extracted using savecore(8).

One new DDB(4) command is added, "textdump", which accepts "set",
"unset", and "status" arguments.  By default, normal kernel dumps are
generated unless "textdump set" is run in order to schedule a textdump.
It can be canceled using "textdump unset" to restore generation of a
normal kernel dump.

Several sysctls exist to configure aspects of textdumps;
debug.ddb.textdump.pending can be set to check whether a textdump is
pending, or set/unset in order to control whether the next kernel dump
will be a textdump from userspace.

While textdumps don't have to be generated as a result of a DDB script
run automatically as part of a kernel panic, this is a particular useful
way to use them, as instead of generating a complete memory dump, a
simple transcript of an automated DDB session can be captured using the
DDB output capture and textdump facilities.  This can be used to
generate quite brief kernel bug reports rich in debugging information
but not dependent on kernel symbol tables or precisely synchronized
source code.  Most textdumps I generate are less than 100k including
the full message buffer.  Using textdumps with an interactive debugging
session is also useful, with capture being enabled/disabled in order to
record some but not all of the DDB session.
