Now that Giant is acquired in uprintf() and tprintf(), the caller no
longer leads to acquire Giant unless it also holds another mutex that
would generate a lock order reversal when calling into these functions.
Specifically not backed out is the acquisition of Giant in nfs_socket.c
and rpcclnt.c, where local mutexes are held and would otherwise violate
the lock order with Giant.

This aligns this code more with the eventual locking of ttys.

84d2b7df26 Add GIANT_REQUIRED and WITNESS sleep warnings to uprintf() and tprintf(),
as they both interact with the tty code (!MPSAFE) and may sleep if the
tty buffer is full (per comment).

Modify all consumers of uprintf() and tprintf() to hold Giant around
calls into these functions.  In most cases, this means adding an
acquisition of Giant immediately around the function.  In some cases
(nfs_timer()), it means acquiring Giant higher up in the callout.

With these changes, UFS no longer panics on SMP when either blocks are
exhausted or inodes are exhausted under load due to races in the tty
code when running without Giant.

NB: Some reduction in calls to uprintf() in the svr4 code is probably
desirable.

NB: In the case of nfs_timer(), calling uprintf() while holding a mutex,
or even in a callout at all, is a bad idea, and will generate warnings
and potential upset.  This needs to be fixed, but was a problem before
this change.

NB: uprintf()/tprintf() sleeping is generally a bad ideas, as is having
non-MPSAFE tty code.

the type of object represented by the handle argument.
- Allow vm_mmap() to map device memory via cdev objects in addition to
  vnodes and anonymous memory.  Note that mmaping a cdev directly does not
  currently perform any MAC checks like mapping a vnode does.
- Unbreak the DRM getbufs ioctl by having it call vm_mmap() directly on the

fb72f180d5 - Implement osf1_emul_find() using kern_alternate_path(). This changes
the semantics in that the returned filename to use is now a kernel
  pointer rather than a user space pointer.  This required changing the
  arguments to the CHECKALT*() macros some and changing the various system
  calls that used pathnames to use the kern_foo() functions that can accept
  kernel space filename pointers instead of calling the system call
  directly.

  kern_setitimer(), kern_getitimer(), kern_statfs(), and kern_fstatfs().

78c85e8dfc Rework how we store process times in the kernel such that we always store
the raw values including for child process statistics and only compute the
system and user timevals on demand.

- Fix the various kern_wait() syscall wrappers to only pass in a rusage
  pointer if they are going to use the result.
- Add a kern_getrusage() function for the ABI syscalls to use so that they
  don't have to play stackgap games to call getrusage().
- Fix the svr4_sys_times() syscall to just call calcru() to calculate the
  times it needs rather than calling getrusage() twice with associated
  stackgap, etc.
- Add a new rusage_ext structure to store raw time stats such as tick counts
  for user, system, and interrupt time as well as a bintime of the total
  runtime.  A new p_rux field in struct proc replaces the same inline fields
  from struct proc (i.e. p_[isu]ticks, p_[isu]u, and p_runtime).  A new p_crux
  field in struct proc contains the "raw" child time usage statistics.
  ruadd() has been changed to handle adding the associated rusage_ext
  structures as well as the values in rusage.  Effectively, the values in
  rusage_ext replace the ru_utime and ru_stime values in struct rusage.  These
  two fields in struct rusage are no longer used in the kernel.
- calcru() has been split into a static worker function calcru1() that
  calculates appropriate timevals for user and system time as well as updating
  the rux_[isu]u fields of a passed in rusage_ext structure.  calcru() uses a
  copy of the process' p_rux structure to compute the timevals after updating
  the runtime appropriately if any of the threads in that process are
  currently executing.  It also now only locks sched_lock internally while
  doing the rux_runtime fixup.  calcru() now only requires the caller to
  hold the proc lock and calcru1() only requires the proc lock internally.
  calcru() also no longer allows callers to ask for an interrupt timeval
  since none of them actually did.
- calcru() now correctly handles threads executing on other CPUs.
- A new calccru() function computes the child system and user timevals by
  calling calcru1() on p_crux.  Note that this means that any code that wants
  child times must now call this function rather than reading from p_cru
  directly.  This function also requires the proc lock.
- This finishes the locking for rusage and friends so some of the Giant locks
  in exit1() and kern_wait() are now gone.
- The locking in ttyinfo() has been tweaked so that a shared lock of the
  proctree lock is used to protect the process group rather than the process
  group lock.  By holding this lock until the end of the function we now
  ensure that the process/thread that we pick to dump info about will no
  longer vanish while we are trying to output its info to the console.

b7e23e826c - Replace wait1() with a kern_wait() function that accepts the pid,
options, status pointer and rusage pointer as arguments.  It is up to
  the caller to copyout the status and rusage to userland if needed.  This
  lets us axe the 'compat' argument and hide all that functionality in
  owait(), by the way.  This also cleans up some locking in kern_wait()
  since it no longer has to drop locks around copyout() since all the
  copyout()'s are deferred.
- Convert owait(), wait4(), and the various ABI compat wait() syscalls to
  use kern_wait() rather than wait1() or wait4().  This removes a bit
  more stackgap usage.

91d5354a2c Locking for the per-process resource limits structure.
- struct plimit includes a mutex to protect a reference count.  The plimit
  structure is treated similarly to struct ucred in that is is always copy
  on write, so having a reference to a structure is sufficient to read from
  it without needing a further lock.
- The proc lock protects the p_limit pointer and must be held while reading
  limits from a process to keep the limit structure from changing out from
  under you while reading from it.
- Various global limits that are ints are not protected by a lock since
  int writes are atomic on all the archs we support and thus a lock
  wouldn't buy us anything.
- All accesses to individual resource limits from a process are abstracted
  behind a simple lim_rlimit(), lim_max(), and lim_cur() API that return
  either an rlimit, or the current or max individual limit of the specified
  resource from a process.
- dosetrlimit() was renamed to kern_setrlimit() to match existing style of
  other similar syscall helper functions.
- The alpha OSF/1 compat layer no longer calls getrlimit() and setrlimit()
  (it didn't used the stackgap when it should have) but uses lim_rlimit()
  and kern_setrlimit() instead.
- The svr4 compat no longer uses the stackgap for resource limits calls,
  but uses lim_rlimit() and kern_setrlimit() instead.
- The ibcs2 compat no longer uses the stackgap for resource limits.  It
  also no longer uses the stackgap for accessing sysctl's for the
  ibcs2_sysconf() syscall but uses kernel_sysctl() instead.  As a result,
  ibcs2_sysconf() no longer needs Giant.
- The p_rlimit macro no longer exists.

447b3772dc Change hw.physmem and hw.usermem to unsigned long like they used to be
in the original hardwired sysctl implementation.

The buf size calculator still overflows an integer on machines with large
KVA (eg: ia64) where the number of pages does not fit into an int.  Use
'long' there.

Change Maxmem and physmem and related variables to 'long', mostly for
completeness.  Machines are not likely to overflow 'int' pages in the
near term, but then again, 640K ought to be enough for anybody.  This
comes for free on 32 bit machines, so why not?

ea6027a8e1 Make similar changes to fo_stat() and fo_poll() as made earlier to
fo_read() and fo_write(): explicitly use the cred argument to fo_poll()
as "active_cred" using the passed file descriptor's f_cred reference
to provide access to the file credential.  Add an active_cred
argument to fo_stat() so that implementers have access to the active
credential as well as the file credential.  Generally modify callers
of fo_stat() to pass in td->td_ucred rather than fp->f_cred, which
was redundantly provided via the fp argument.  This set of modifications
also permits threads to perform these operations on behalf of another
thread without modifying their credential.

Trickle this change down into fo_stat/poll() implementations:

- badfo_poll(), badfo_stat(): modify/add arguments.
- kqueue_poll(), kqueue_stat(): modify arguments.
- pipe_poll(), pipe_stat(): modify/add arguments, pass active_cred to
  MAC checks rather than td->td_ucred.
- soo_poll(), soo_stat(): modify/add arguments, pass fp->f_cred rather
  than cred to pru_sopoll() to maintain current semantics.
- sopoll(): moidfy arguments.
- vn_poll(), vn_statfile(): modify/add arguments, pass new arguments
  to vn_stat().  Pass active_cred to MAC and fp->f_cred to VOP_POLL()
  to maintian current semantics.
- vn_close(): rename cred to file_cred to reflect reality while I'm here.
- vn_stat(): Add active_cred and file_cred arguments to vn_stat()
  and consumers so that this distinction is maintained at the VFS
  as well as 'struct file' layer.  Pass active_cred instead of
  td->td_ucred to MAC and to VOP_GETATTR() to maintain current semantics.

- fifofs: modify the creation of a "filetemp" so that the file
  credential is properly initialized and can be used in the socket
  code if desired.  Pass ap->a_td->td_ucred as the active
  credential to soo_poll().  If we teach the vnop interface about
  the distinction between file and active credentials, we would use
  the active credential here.

Note that current inconsistent passing of active_cred vs. file_cred to
VOP's is maintained.  It's not clear why GETATTR would be authorized
using active_cred while POLL would be authorized using file_cred at
the file system level.

1419eacb86 Squish the "could sleep with process lock" messages caused by calling
uifind() with a proc lock held.

change_ruid() and change_euid() have been modified to take a uidinfo
structure which will be pre-allocated by callers, they will then
call uihold() on the uidinfo structure so that the caller's logic
is simplified.

This allows one to call uifind() before locking the proc struct and
thereby avoid a potential blocking allocation with the proc lock
held.

This may need revisiting, perhaps keeping a spare uidinfo allocated
per process to handle this situation or re-examining if the proc
lock needs to be held over the entire operation of changing real
or effective user id.

44731cab3b Change the suser() API to take advantage of td_ucred as well as do a
general cleanup of the API.  The entire API now consists of two functions
similar to the pre-KSE API.  The suser() function takes a thread pointer
as its only argument.  The td_ucred member of this thread must be valid
so the only valid thread pointers are curthread and a few kernel threads
such as thread0.  The suser_cred() function takes a pointer to a struct
ucred as its first argument and an integer flag as its second argument.
The flag is currently only used for the PRISON_ROOT flag.

426da3bcfb SMP Lock struct file, filedesc and the global file list.
Seigo Tanimura (tanimura) posted the initial delta.

I've polished it quite a bit reducing the need for locking and
adapting it for KSE.

Locks:

1 mutex in each filedesc
   protects all the fields.
   protects "struct file" initialization, while a struct file
     is being changed from &badfileops -> &pipeops or something
     the filedesc should be locked.

1 mutex in each struct file
   protects the refcount fields.
   doesn't protect anything else.
   the flags used for garbage collection have been moved to
     f_gcflag which was the FILLER short, this doesn't need
     locking because the garbage collection is a single threaded
     container.
  could likely be made to use a pool mutex.

1 sx lock for the global filelist.

struct file *	fhold(struct file *fp);
        /* increments reference count on a file */

struct file *	fhold_locked(struct file *fp);
        /* like fhold but expects file to locked */

struct file *	ffind_hold(struct thread *, int fd);
        /* finds the struct file in thread, adds one reference and
                returns it unlocked */

struct file *	ffind_lock(struct thread *, int fd);
        /* ffind_hold, but returns file locked */

I still have to smp-safe the fget cruft, I'll get to that asap.

b1fc0ec1a7 o Merge contents of struct pcred into struct ucred. Specifically, add the
real uid, saved uid, real gid, and saved gid to ucred, as well as the
  pcred->pc_uidinfo, which was associated with the real uid, only rename
  it to cr_ruidinfo so as not to conflict with cr_uidinfo, which
  corresponds to the effective uid.
o Remove p_cred from struct proc; add p_ucred to struct proc, replacing
  original macro that pointed.
  p->p_ucred to p->p_cred->pc_ucred.
o Universally update code so that it makes use of ucred instead of pcred,
  p->p_ucred instead of p->p_pcred, cr_ruidinfo instead of p_uidinfo,
  cr_{r,sv}{u,g}id instead of p_*, etc.
o Remove pcred0 and its initialization from init_main.c; initialize
  cr_ruidinfo there.
o Restruction many credential modification chunks to always crdup while
  we figure out locking and optimizations; generally speaking, this
  means moving to a structure like this:
        newcred = crdup(oldcred);
        ...
        p->p_ucred = newcred;
        crfree(oldcred);
  It's not race-free, but better than nothing.  There are also races
  in sys_process.c, all inter-process authorization, fork, exec, and
  exit.
o Remove sigio->sio_ruid since sigio->sio_ucred now contains the ruid;
  remove comments indicating that the old arrangement was a problem.
o Restructure exec1() a little to use newcred/oldcred arrangement, and
  use improved uid management primitives.
o Clean up exit1() so as to do less work in credential cleanup due to
  pcred removal.
o Clean up fork1() so as to do less work in credential cleanup and
  allocation.
o Clean up ktrcanset() to take into account changes, and move to using
  suser_xxx() instead of performing a direct uid==0 comparision.
o Improve commenting in various kern_prot.c credential modification
  calls to better document current behavior.  In a couple of places,
  current behavior is a little questionable and we need to check
  POSIX.1 to make sure it's "right".  More commenting work still
  remains to be done.
o Update credential management calls, such as crfree(), to take into
  account new ruidinfo reference.
o Modify or add the following uid and gid helper routines:
      change_euid()
      change_egid()
      change_ruid()
      change_rgid()
      change_svuid()
      change_svgid()
  In each case, the call now acts on a credential not a process, and as
  such no longer requires more complicated process locking/etc.  They
  now assume the caller will do any necessary allocation of an
  exclusive credential reference.  Each is commented to document its
  reference requirements.
o CANSIGIO() is simplified to require only credentials, not processes
  and pcreds.
o Remove lots of (p_pcred==NULL) checks.
o Add an XXX to authorization code in nfs_lock.c, since it's
  questionable, and needs to be considered carefully.
o Simplify posix4 authorization code to require only credentials, not
  processes and pcreds.  Note that this authorization, as well as
  CANSIGIO(), needs to be updated to use the p_cansignal() and
  p_cansched() centralized authorization routines, as they currently
  do not take into account some desirable restrictions that are handled
  by the centralized routines, as well as being inconsistent with other
  similar authorization instances.
o Update libkvm to take these changes into account.

Sort sys/*.h includes where possible in affected files.

9ed346bab0 Change and clean the mutex lock interface.
mtx_enter(lock, type) becomes:

mtx_lock(lock) for sleep locks (MTX_DEF-initialized locks)
mtx_lock_spin(lock) for spin locks (MTX_SPIN-initialized)

similarily, for releasing a lock, we now have:

mtx_unlock(lock) for MTX_DEF and mtx_unlock_spin(lock) for MTX_SPIN.
We change the caller interface for the two different types of locks
because the semantics are entirely different for each case, and this
makes it explicitly clear and, at the same time, it rids us of the
extra `type' argument.

The enter->lock and exit->unlock change has been made with the idea
that we're "locking data" and not "entering locked code" in mind.

Further, remove all additional "flags" previously passed to the
lock acquire/release routines with the exception of two:

MTX_QUIET and MTX_NOSWITCH

The functionality of these flags is preserved and they can be passed
to the lock/unlock routines by calling the corresponding wrappers:

mtx_{lock, unlock}_flags(lock, flag(s)) and
mtx_{lock, unlock}_spin_flags(lock, flag(s)) for MTX_DEF and MTX_SPIN
locks, respectively.

Re-inline some lock acq/rel code; in the sleep lock case, we only
inline the _obtain_lock()s in order to ensure that the inlined code
fits into a cache line. In the spin lock case, we inline recursion and
actually only perform a function call if we need to spin. This change
has been made with the idea that we generally tend to avoid spin locks
and that also the spin locks that we do have and are heavily used
(i.e. sched_lock) do recurse, and therefore in an effort to reduce
function call overhead for some architectures (such as alpha), we
inline recursion for this case.

Create a new malloc type for the witness code and retire from using
the M_DEV type. The new type is called M_WITNESS and is only declared
if WITNESS is enabled.

Begin cleaning up some machdep/mutex.h code - specifically updated the
"optimized" inlined code in alpha/mutex.h and wrote MTX_LOCK_SPIN
and MTX_UNLOCK_SPIN asm macros for the i386/mutex.h as we presently
need those.

Finally, caught up to the interface changes in all sys code.
