we can use td_ucred.
- In killpg1(), the proc lock is sufficient to check if p_stat is SZOMB
or not. We don't need sched_lock.
- Close some races in psignal(). In psignal() there is a big switch
statement based on p_stat. All the different cases are assuming that
the process (or thread) isn't going to change state out from under it.
To ensure this is true, just lock sched_lock for the entire switch. We
practically held it the entire time already anyways. This also
simplifies the locking somewhat and actually results in fewer lock
operations.
- Allow signotify() to be called with the sched_lock held since psignal()
now does that.
- Use td_ucred in a couple of places.
process so it can use td_ucred.
- Require the target process of donice() to be locked when donice() is
called.
- Use td_ucred.
- Lock the target process of p_cansee() and while reading the credentials
of a process.
- Change the logic of rtprio() slightly so it does it's copyin() if needed
prior to locking the target process.
- rtprio() no longer needs Giant. In theory with full KSE it would still
need Giant to protect p_ucred of curproc for the p_canfoo() functions
but p_canfoo() will be changing to using td_ucred of curthread before
full KSE hits the tree.
allocate a blank cred first, lock the process, perform checks on the
old process credential, copy the old process credential into the new
blank credential, modify the new credential, update the process
credential pointer, unlock the process, and cleanup rather than trying
to allocate a new credential after performing the checks on the old
credential.
- Cleanup _setugid() a little bit.
- setlogin() doesn't need Giant thanks to pgrp/session locking and
td_ucred.
and acquire the proctree_lock if needed first. Then we lock the process
if necessary and fiddle with it as appropriate. Finally we drop locks and
do any needed copyout's. This greatly simplifies the locking.
belong to a user virtual address; while this happens to work on some
architectures, it can't on sparc64, since user and kernel virtual
address spaces overlap there (the distinction between them is done via
separate address space identifiers).
Instead, look up the page in the vm_map of the process in question.

- Push Giant down into the end of settime() where we actually set the time
on the timecounter and time of day clock.
- Remove Giant from clock_settime().
- Push Giant down in settimeofday() to just protect the 'tz' global
variable.
linker_search_module().
Without this, modules loaded from loader.conf that then try to load
in additional modules (such as digi.ko loading a card's BIOS) die
badly in the vn_open() called from linker_search_module().
It may be worth checking (KASSERTing?) that rootdev != NODEV in
vn_open() too.

In linker_reference_module(), check to see if we've already got
the required module loaded. If we have, bump the reference count
and return that, otherwise continue the module search as normal.

- Change sysctl_out_proc() to require that the process is locked when it
is called and to drop the lock before it returns. If this proves too
complex we can change sysctl_out_proc() to simply acquire the lock at
the very end and have the calling code drop the lock right after it
returns.
- Lock the process we are going to export before the p_cansee() in the

sysctl_out_proc().
- Don't call p_cansee() on the process about to be exported twice in
the aforementioned loop.

Add a sysctl to enable tweaking it for new processes.

functions access the clock diver using a kobj interface. This is intended
to reduce code reduplication and make it easy to support more than one

This code is currently only used on sparc64, but it is planned to convert
the code of the other architectures to it later.
