temporary file is created and then a rename() call move it to official file.
This operation didn't have any check to make sure data was written to disk
and if a power cycle happens system could end up with a 0 length passwd
or group database.
There is a pfSense bug with more infor about it:
https://redmine.pfsense.org/issues/4523
The following changes were made to protect passwd and group operations:
* lib/libutil/gr_util.c:
- Replace mkstemp() by mkostemp() with O_SYNC flag to create temp file
- After rename(), fsync() call on directory for faster result
* lib/libutil/pw_util.c
- Replace mkstemp() by mkostemp() with O_SYNC flag to create temp file
* usr.sbin/pwd_mkdb/pwd_mkdb.c
- Added O_SYNC flag on dbopen() calls
- After rename(), fsync() call on directory for faster result
* lib/libutil/pw_util.3
- pw_lock() returns a file descriptor to master password file on success

This allows ctld to work with isp(4) virtual ports, specifying them as
isp0/1, isp0/2, etc. There are still problems on isp(4) layer with
disabling those ports after enabling, but hopefully they can be fixed.

Similar problem was also present in msdosfs label recognition.

devmem is used to represent MMIO devices like the boot ROM or a VESA framebuffer
where doing a trap-and-emulate for every access is impractical. devmem is a
hybrid of system memory (sysmem) and emulated device models.
devmem is mapped in the guest address space via nested page tables similar
to sysmem. However the address range where devmem is mapped may be changed
by the guest at runtime (e.g. by reprogramming a PCI BAR). Also devmem is
usually mapped RO or RW as compared to RWX mappings for sysmem.
Each devmem segment is named (e.g. "bootrom") and this name is used to
create a device node for the devmem segment (e.g. /dev/vmm/testvm.bootrom).
The device node supports mmap(2) and this decouples the host mapping of
devmem from its mapping in the guest address space (which can change).

syslogd already re-reads the configuration file and the hostname when
receiving a SIGHUP, so it makes sense to reset the timezone.
Special care was taken to ensure we don't break installations running
with a custom TZ variable.

Off by default, build behaves normally.
WITH_META_MODE we get auto objdir creation, the ability to
start build from anywhere in the tree.
Still need to add real targets under targets/ to build packages.

While the return code is broken, some corner case usage depends on the
functionnality, so backout until we get better regression tests covering those
corner case usage.
the intent of -q in this command is to return as exit status the value of the
next group/user id, which does not make sense given exit status are limited to
values between 0 and 255.
