tracing process to obtain information about the LWP that caused the
traced process to stop. Debuggers can use this information to select
the thread currently running on the LWP as the current thread.
The request has been made compatible with NetBSD for as much as
possible. This implementation differs from NetBSD in the following
ways:
1. The data argument is allowed to be smaller than the size of the
ptrace_lwpinfo structure known to the kernel, but not 0. This
is opposite to what NetBSD allows. The reason for this is that
we can extend the structure without affecting older binaries.
2. On NetBSD the tracing process is to set the pl_lwpid field to
the Id of the LWP it wants information of. We don't do that.
Our ptrace interface allows passing the LWP Id instead of the
PID. The tracing process is to set the PID to the LWP Id it
wants information of.
3. When the PID is actually the PID of the tracing process, this
request returns the information about the LWP that caused the
process to stop. This was the whole purpose of the request in
the first place.
When the traced process has exited, this request will return the
LWP Id 0, indicating that the process state is not the result of
an event specific to a LWP.

in soreceive() after removing an MT_SONAME mbuf from the head of the
socket buffer.
When processing MT_CONTROL mbufs in soreceive(), first remove all of
the MT_CONTROL mbufs from the head of the socket buffer to a local
mbuf chain, then feed them into dom_externalize() as a set, which
both avoids thrashing the socket buffer lock when handling multiple
control mbufs, and also avoids races with other threads acting on
the socket buffer when the socket buffer mutex is released to enter
the externalize code. Existing races that might occur if the protocol
externalize method blocked during processing have also been closed.
Now that we synchronize socket buffer and stack state following
modifications to the socket buffer, turn the manual synchronization
that previously followed control mbuf processing with a set of
assertions. This can eventually be removed.
The soreceive() code is now substantially more MPSAFE.
the head of the mbuf chains in a socket buffer, re-synchronizes the
cache pointers used to optimize socket buffer appends. This will be
used by soreceive() before dropping socket buffer mutexes to make sure
a consistent version of the socket buffer is visible to other threads.
While here, update copyright to account for substantial rewrite of much
socket code required for fine-grained locking.
locking on 'nextrecord' and concerns regarding potentially inconsistent

Also document the 'type' logic as to how soreceive() guarantees that
it will only return one of normal data or inline out-of-band data.

associated with a PR_ADDR protocol, make sure to update the m_nextpkt

Otherwise, when we release the socket buffer mutex, the socket buffer

in which multiple (presumably different) debugger backends can be
configured and which provides basic services to those backends.
Besides providing services to backends, it also serves as the single
point of contact for any and all code that wants to make use of the
debugger functions, such as entering the debugger or handling of the
alternate break sequence. For this purpose, the frontend has been
made non-optional.
All debugger requests are forwarded or handed over to the current
backend, if applicable. Selection of the current backend is done by
the debug.kdb.current sysctl. A list of configured backends can be
obtained with the debug.kdb.available sysctl. One can enter the
debugger by writing to the debug.kdb.enter sysctl.
Add copyiniov() which copies a struct iovec array in from userland into

Change uiofromiov() to malloc the uio (caller frees) and name it

assigning a pointer to the list and then dereferencing the pointer as a
second step. When the first spin lock is acquired, curthread is not in
a critical section so it may be preempted and would end up using another
CPUs lock list instead of its own.
When this code was in witness_lock() this sequence was safe as curthread
was in a critical section already since witness_lock() is called after the
lock is acquired.

takes an argument to specify if it should preempt or not. Don't preempt
when sched_add_internal() is called from kseq_idled() or kseq_assign()
as in those cases we are about to call mi_switch() anyways. Also, doing
so during the first context switch on an AP leads to a NULL pointer deref
because curthread is NULL.

When avoiding the zeroing of "bogus_page" when it appears in a buf,
be sure to advance the pointers into the data for successive pages.
The bug caused file corruption when read(2)ing from a "hole" in a
file where a previous page of the read block had already been faulted
in: fsx tripped up on this pretty quickly. The particular access
pattern is probably pretty unusual, so other applications probably
wouldn't have had problems, but you'd never know.
