3cea595248 Pickup SPECNAMELEN from <sys/param.h> and use it.
A missing _PATH_DEVDB ("/var/run/dev.db") is not cause for a warning
anymore, the file is effectively optional these days.

8d25eb2c3a Add code to devname(3) so it can find the names of devices which
were not present when dev_mkdb(8) was run.

First the dev_mkdb(8) database is searched, this caters for non-DEVFS
cases where people have renamed a device.

If that fails we ask the kernel using sysctl kern.devname if the device
driver has put a name in the dev_t.  This covers DEVFS cloned devices.

If that also fails we format a string which isn't entirely useless.

248aee623c Add nsswitch support. By creating an /etc/nsswitch.conf file, you can
configure FreeBSD so that various databases such as passwd and group can be
looked up using flat files, NIS, or Hesiod.

= Hesiod has been added to libc (see hesiod(3)).

= A library routine for parsing nsswitch.conf and invoking callback
  functions as specified has been added to libc (see nsdispatch(3)).

= The following C library functions have been modified to use nsdispatch:
    . getgrent, getgrnam, getgrgid
    . getpwent, getpwnam, getpwuid
    . getusershell
    . getaddrinfo
    . gethostbyname, gethostbyname2, gethostbyaddr
    . getnetbyname, getnetbyaddr
    . getipnodebyname, getipnodebyaddr, getnodebyname, getnodebyaddr

= host.conf has been removed from src/etc.  rc.network has been modified
  to warn that host.conf is no longer used at boot time.  In addition, if
  there is a host.conf but no nsswitch.conf, the latter is created at boot
  time from the former.

7aa1d9cd4a Remove the SIGSYS handler and wrapper around the __getcwd() syscall.
It was kinda silly since the sigaction() syscall that it used to setup
the handler is more recent than __getcwd(), therefore it was useless
as the wrapper would have died before even getting as far as __getcwd(2).

9feac5c218 Move setproctitle() from libutil to libc (after a repo-copy)
and bump __FreeBSD_version to 500012 to mark the occasion.

setproctitle() is prototyped in unistd.h as opposed to stdlib.h
where OpenBSD and NetBSD have it.

d8fa6babb4 Document VIS_HTTPSTYLE:
VIS_HTTPSTYLE is a new encoding style for use in vis(), strvis() and
  strvisx() that escapes characters according to RFC 1808 (URI encoding).

Since decoding of these require different detection of start-points of
  escaped characters, VIS_HTTPSTYLE can be given as flag to unvis().
  unvis() will then properly decode URIs.

A new function appeared, strunvisx(): strunvisx() behaves similar as
  strunvis(), with one exception: It has an additional flag parameter,
  which is passed to unvis() to archive the effect I described above.

d502d9ac46 The "def" arg for fflagstostr is too specialized for ls. The caller
can easily translate from "" to whatever it wants to print if no
flags are set.  (ls prints "-" and mtree prints "none".)
