8876613dc5 Replace use of ${.CURDIR} by ${LIBC_SRCTOP} and define ${LIBC_SRCTOP}
if not already defined. This allows building libc from outside of
lib/libc using a reach-over makefile.

A typical use-case is to build a standard ILP32 version and a COMPAT32
version in a single iteration by building the COMPAT32 version using a
reach-over makefile.

possible for the kqueues to consume memory proportional to the square
of the number of the filedescriptors available to the process.  Limit
allows administrator to prevent the abuse.

exhausted.
- Add a new protect(1) command that can be used to set or revoke protection
  from arbitrary processes.  Similar to ktrace it can apply a change to all

- Add a new procctl(2) system call that provides a generic interface for
  control operations on processes (as opposed to the debugger-specific
  operations provided by ptrace(2)).  procctl(2) uses a combination of
  idtype_t and an id to identify the set of processes on which to operate
  similar to wait6().
- Add a PROC_SPROTECT control operation to manage the protection status
  of a set of processes.  MADV_PROTECT still works for backwards
  compatability.
- Add a p_flag2 to struct proc (and a corresponding ki_flag2 to kinfo_proc)

7008be5bd7 Change the cap_rights_t type from uint64_t to a structure that we can extend
in the future in a backward compatible (API and ABI) way.

The cap_rights_t represents capability rights. We used to use one bit to
represent one right, but we are running out of spare bits. Currently the new
structure provides place for 114 rights (so 50 more than the previous
cap_rights_t), but it is possible to grow the structure to hold at least 285
rights, although we can make it even larger if 285 rights won't be enough.

The structure definition looks like this:

	struct cap_rights {
		uint64_t	cr_rights[CAP_RIGHTS_VERSION + 2];
	};

The initial CAP_RIGHTS_VERSION is 0.

The top two bits in the first element of the cr_rights[] array contain total
number of elements in the array - 2. This means if those two bits are equal to
0, we have 2 array elements.

The top two bits in all remaining array elements should be 0.
The next five bits in all array elements contain array index. Only one bit is
used and bit position in this five-bits range defines array index. This means
there can be at most five array elements in the future.

To define new right the CAPRIGHT() macro must be used. The macro takes two
arguments - an array index and a bit to set, eg.

	#define	CAP_PDKILL	CAPRIGHT(1, 0x0000000000000800ULL)

We still support aliases that combine few rights, but the rights have to belong
to the same array element, eg:

	#define	CAP_LOOKUP	CAPRIGHT(0, 0x0000000000000400ULL)
	#define	CAP_FCHMOD	CAPRIGHT(0, 0x0000000000002000ULL)

	#define	CAP_FCHMODAT	(CAP_FCHMOD | CAP_LOOKUP)

There is new API to manage the new cap_rights_t structure:

	cap_rights_t *cap_rights_init(cap_rights_t *rights, ...);
	void cap_rights_set(cap_rights_t *rights, ...);
	void cap_rights_clear(cap_rights_t *rights, ...);
	bool cap_rights_is_set(const cap_rights_t *rights, ...);

	bool cap_rights_is_valid(const cap_rights_t *rights);
	void cap_rights_merge(cap_rights_t *dst, const cap_rights_t *src);
	void cap_rights_remove(cap_rights_t *dst, const cap_rights_t *src);
	bool cap_rights_contains(const cap_rights_t *big, const cap_rights_t *little);

Capability rights to the cap_rights_init(), cap_rights_set(),
cap_rights_clear() and cap_rights_is_set() functions are provided by
separating them with commas, eg:

	cap_rights_t rights;

	cap_rights_init(&rights, CAP_READ, CAP_WRITE, CAP_FSTAT);

There is no need to terminate the list of rights, as those functions are
actually macros that take care of the termination, eg:

	#define	cap_rights_set(rights, ...)				\
		__cap_rights_set((rights), __VA_ARGS__, 0ULL)
	void __cap_rights_set(cap_rights_t *rights, ...);

Thanks to using one bit as an array index we can assert in those functions that
there are no two rights belonging to different array elements provided
together. For example this is illegal and will be detected, because CAP_LOOKUP
belongs to element 0 and CAP_PDKILL to element 1:

	cap_rights_init(&rights, CAP_LOOKUP | CAP_PDKILL);

Providing several rights that belongs to the same array's element this way is
correct, but is not advised. It should only be used for aliases definition.

This commit also breaks compatibility with some existing Capsicum system calls,
but I see no other way to do that. This should be fine as Capsicum is still
experimental and this change is not going to 9.x.

7da1a731c6 Expand the use of stat(2) flags to allow storing some Windows/DOS
and CIFS file attributes as BSD stat(2) flags.

This work is intended to be compatible with ZFS, the Solaris CIFS
server's interaction with ZFS, somewhat compatible with MacOS X,
and of course compatible with Windows.

The Windows attributes that are implemented were chosen based on
the attributes that ZFS already supports.

The summary of the flags is as follows:

UF_SYSTEM:	Command line name: "system" or "usystem"
		ZFS name: XAT_SYSTEM, ZFS_SYSTEM
		Windows: FILE_ATTRIBUTE_SYSTEM

		This flag means that the file is used by the
		operating system.  FreeBSD does not enforce any
		special handling when this flag is set.

UF_SPARSE:	Command line name: "sparse" or "usparse"
		ZFS name: XAT_SPARSE, ZFS_SPARSE
		Windows: FILE_ATTRIBUTE_SPARSE_FILE

		This flag means that the file is sparse.  Although
		ZFS may modify this in some situations, there is
		not generally any special handling for this flag.

UF_OFFLINE:	Command line name: "offline" or "uoffline"
		ZFS name: XAT_OFFLINE, ZFS_OFFLINE
		Windows: FILE_ATTRIBUTE_OFFLINE

		This flag means that the file has been moved to
		offline storage.  FreeBSD does not have any special
		handling for this flag.

UF_REPARSE:	Command line name: "reparse" or "ureparse"
		ZFS name: XAT_REPARSE, ZFS_REPARSE
		Windows: FILE_ATTRIBUTE_REPARSE_POINT

		This flag means that the file is a Windows reparse
		point.  ZFS has special handling code for reparse
		points, but we don't currently have the other
		supporting infrastructure for them.

UF_HIDDEN:	Command line name: "hidden" or "uhidden"
		ZFS name: XAT_HIDDEN, ZFS_HIDDEN
		Windows: FILE_ATTRIBUTE_HIDDEN

		This flag means that the file may be excluded from
		a directory listing if the application honors it.
		FreeBSD has no special handling for this flag.

		The name and bit definition for UF_HIDDEN are
		identical to the definition in MacOS X.

UF_READONLY:	Command line name: "urdonly", "rdonly", "readonly"
		ZFS name: XAT_READONLY, ZFS_READONLY
		Windows: FILE_ATTRIBUTE_READONLY

		This flag means that the file may not written or
		appended, but its attributes may be changed.

		ZFS currently enforces this flag, but Illumos
		developers have discussed disabling enforcement.

		The behavior of this flag is different than MacOS X.
		MacOS X uses UF_IMMUTABLE to represent the DOS
		readonly permission, but that flag has a stronger
		meaning than the semantics of DOS readonly permissions.

UF_ARCHIVE:	Command line name: "uarch", "uarchive"
		ZFS_NAME: XAT_ARCHIVE, ZFS_ARCHIVE
		Windows name: FILE_ATTRIBUTE_ARCHIVE

		The UF_ARCHIVED flag means that the file has changed and
		needs to be archived.  The meaning is same as
		the Windows FILE_ATTRIBUTE_ARCHIVE attribute, and
		the ZFS XAT_ARCHIVE and ZFS_ARCHIVE attribute.

		msdosfs and ZFS have special handling for this flag.
		i.e. they will set it when the file changes.

sys/param.h:		Bump __FreeBSD_version to 1000047 for the
			addition of new stat(2) flags.

chflags.1:		Document the new command line flag names
			(e.g. "system", "hidden") available to the
			user.

ls.1:			Reference chflags(1) for a list of file flags
			and their meanings.

strtofflags.c:		Implement the mapping between the new
			command line flag names and new stat(2)
			flags.

chflags.2:		Document all of the new stat(2) flags, and
			explain the intended behavior in a little
			more detail.  Explain how they map to
			Windows file attributes.

			Different filesystems behave differently
			with respect to flags, so warn the
			application developer to take care when
			using them.

zfs_vnops.c:		Add support for getting and setting the
			UF_ARCHIVE, UF_READONLY, UF_SYSTEM, UF_HIDDEN,
			UF_REPARSE, UF_OFFLINE, and UF_SPARSE flags.

			All of these flags are implemented using
			attributes that ZFS already supports, so
			the on-disk format has not changed.

			ZFS currently doesn't allow setting the
			UF_REPARSE flag, and we don't really have
			the other infrastructure to support reparse
			points.

msdosfs_denode.c,
msdosfs_vnops.c:	Add support for getting and setting
			UF_HIDDEN, UF_SYSTEM and UF_READONLY
			in MSDOSFS.

			It supported SF_ARCHIVED, but this has been
			changed to be UF_ARCHIVE, which has the same
			semantics as the DOS archive attribute instead
			of inverse semantics like SF_ARCHIVED.

			After discussion with Bruce Evans, change
			several things in the msdosfs behavior:

			Use UF_READONLY to indicate whether a file
			is writeable instead of file permissions, but
			don't actually enforce it.

			Refuse to change attributes on the root
			directory, because it is special in FAT
			filesystems, but allow most other attribute
			changes on directories.

			Don't set the archive attribute on a directory
			when its modification time is updated.
			Windows and DOS don't set the archive attribute
			in that scenario, so we are now bug-for-bug
			compatible.

smbfs_node.c,
smbfs_vnops.c:		Add support for UF_HIDDEN, UF_SYSTEM,
			UF_READONLY and UF_ARCHIVE in SMBFS.

			This is similar to changes that Apple has
			made in their version of SMBFS (as of
			smb-583.8, posted on opensource.apple.com),
			but not quite the same.

			We map SMB_FA_READONLY to UF_READONLY,
			because UF_READONLY is intended to match
			the semantics of the DOS readonly flag.
			The MacOS X code maps both UF_IMMUTABLE
			and SF_IMMUTABLE to SMB_FA_READONLY, but
			the immutable flags have stronger meaning
			than the DOS readonly bit.

stat.h:			Add definitions for UF_SYSTEM, UF_SPARSE,
			UF_OFFLINE, UF_REPARSE, UF_ARCHIVE, UF_READONLY
			and UF_HIDDEN.

			The definition of UF_HIDDEN is the same as
			the MacOS X definition.

			Add commented-out definitions of
			UF_COMPRESSED and UF_TRACKED.  They are
			defined in MacOS X (as of 10.8.2), but we
			do not implement them (yet).

ufs_vnops.c:		Add support for getting and setting
			UF_ARCHIVE, UF_HIDDEN, UF_OFFLINE, UF_READONLY,
			UF_REPARSE, UF_SPARSE, and UF_SYSTEM in UFS.
			Alphabetize the flags that are supported.

			These new flags are only stored, UFS does
			not take any action if the flag is set.

5aa60b6f21 Add new mmap(2) flags to permit applications to request specific virtual
address alignment of mappings.
- MAP_ALIGNED(n) requests a mapping aligned on a boundary of (1 << n).
  Requests for n >= number of bits in a pointer or less than the size of
  a page fail with EINVAL.  This matches the API provided by NetBSD.
- MAP_ALIGNED_SUPER is a special case of MAP_ALIGNED.  It can be used
  to optimize the chances of using large pages.  By default it will align
  the mapping on a large page boundary (the system is free to choose any
  large page size to align to that seems best for the mapping request).
  However, if the object being mapped is already using large pages, then
  it will align the virtual mapping to match the existing large pages in
  the object instead.
- Internally, VMFS_ALIGNED_SPACE is now renamed to VMFS_SUPER_SPACE, and
  VMFS_ALIGNED_SPACE(n) is repurposed for specifying a specific alignment.
  MAP_ALIGNED(n) maps to using VMFS_ALIGNED_SPACE(n), while
  MAP_ALIGNED_SUPER maps to VMFS_SUPER_SPACE.
- mmap() of a device object now uses VMFS_OPTIMAL_SPACE rather than
  explicitly using VMFS_SUPER_SPACE.  All device objects are forced to
  use a specific color on creation, so VMFS_OPTIMAL_SPACE is effectively
  equivalent.
