the VFS. Now all the VFS_* functions and relating parts don't want the
context as long as it always refers to curthread.
In some points, in particular when dealing with VOPs and functions living
in the same namespace (eg. vflush) which still need to be converted,
pass curthread explicitly in order to retain the old behaviour.
Such loose ends will be fixed ASAP.
While here fix a bug: now, UFS_EXTATTR can be compiled alone without the
UFS_EXTATTR_AUTOSTART option.
VFS KPI is heavilly changed by this commit so thirdy parts modules needs
to be recompiled. Bump __FreeBSD_version in order to signal such
situation.
The pfs_info mutex is only needed to lock pi_unrhdr. Everything else
in struct pfs_info is modified only while Giant is held (during
vfs_init() / vfs_uninit()); add assertions to that effect.
Simplify pfs_destroy somewhat.
Remove superfluous arguments from pfs_fileno_{alloc,free}(), and the
assertions which were added in the previous commit to ensure they were
consistent.
Assert that Giant is held while the vnode cache is initialized and
destroyed. Also assert that the cache is empty when it is destroyed.
Rename the vnode cache mutex for consistency.
Fix a long-standing bug in pfs_getattr(): it would uncritically return
the node's pn_fileno as st_ino. This would result in st_ino being 0
if the node had not previously been visited by readdir(), and also in
an incorrect st_ino for process directories and any files contained
therein. Correct this by abstracting the fileno manipulations
previously done in pfs_readdir() into a new function, pfs_fileno(),
which is used by both pfs_getattr() and pfs_readdir().
specific nodes when the process exits)
Move the vnode-cache-walking loop which was duplicated in pfs_exit() and
pfs_disable() into its own function, pfs_purge(), which looks for vnodes
marked as dead and / or belonging to the specified pfs_node and reclaims
them. Note that this loop is still extremely inefficient.
Add a comment in pfs_vncache_alloc() explaining why we have to purge the
vnode from the vnode cache before returning, in case anyone should be
tempted to remove the call to cache_purge().
Move the special handling for pfstype_root nodes into pfs_fileno_alloc()
and pfs_fileno_free() (the root node's fileno must always be 2). This
also fixes a bug where pfs_fileno_free() would reclaim the root node's
fileno, triggering a panic in the unr code, as that fileno was never
allocated from unr to begin with.
When destroying a pfs_node, release its fileno and purge it from the
vnode cache. I wish we could put off the call to pfs_purge() until
after the entire tree had been destroyed, but then we'd have vnodes
referencing freed pfs nodes. This probably doesn't matter while we're
still under Giant, but might become an issue later.
When destroying a pseudofs instance, destroy the tree before tearing
down the fileno allocator.
In pfs_mount(), acquire the mountpoint interlock when required.

Modify pfs_create_{dir,file,link}() to accept a pointer to a destructor

This breaks both the programming and binary interfaces between pseudofs
and its consumers. It is believed that there are no pseudofs consumers
outside the source tree, so that the impact of this change is minimal.

mount(2) system call:
* Add cmount hook to fdescfs and pseudofs (and, by extension, procfs and
linprocfs). This (mostly) restores the ability to mount these
filesystems using the old mount(2) system call (see below for the
rest of the fix).
* Remove not-NULL check for the data argument from the mount(2) entry
point. Per the mount(2) man page, it is up to the individual
filesystem being mounted to verify data. Or, in the case of procfs,
etc. the filesystem is free to ignore the data parameter if it does
not use it. Enforcing data to be not-NULL in the mount(2) system call
entry point prevented passing NULL to filesystems which ignored the
data pointer value. Apparently, passing NULL was common practice
in such cases, as even our own mount_std(8) used to do it in the
pre-nmount(2) world.
All userland programs in the tree were converted to nmount(2) long ago,
but I've found at least one external program which broke due to this
(presumably unintentional) mount(2) API change. One could argue that
external programs should also be converted to nmount(2), but then there
isn't much point in keeping the mount(2) interface for backward
compatibility if it isn't backward compatible.

"refreshing" the label on the vnode before use, just get the label
right from inception. For single-label file systems, set the label
in the generic VFS getnewvnode() code; for multi-label file systems,
leave the labeling up to the file system. With UFS1/2, this means
reading the extended attribute during vfs_vget() as the inode is
pulled off disk, rather than hitting the extended attributes
frequently during operations later, improving performance. This
also corrects sematics for shared vnode locks, which were not
previously present in the system. This chances the cache
coherrency properties WRT out-of-band access to label data, but in
an acceptable form. With UFS1, there is a small race condition
during automatic extended attribute start -- this is not present
with UFS2, and occurs because EAs aren't available at vnode
inception. We'll introduce a work around for this shortly.

Modify pseudofs so that it can support synthetic file systems with
the multilabel flag set. In particular, implement vop_refreshlabel()
as pn_refreshlabel(). Implement pfs_refreshlabel() to invoke this,
and have it fall back to the mount label if the file system does
not implement pn_refreshlabel() for the node. Otherwise, permit
the file system to determine how the service is provided.

o Modify the system call syntax for extattr_{get,set}_{fd,file}() so
as not to use the scatter gather API (which appeared not to be used
by any consumers, and be less portable), rather, accepts 'data'
and 'nbytes' in the style of other simple read/write interfaces.
This changes the API and ABI.
o Modify system call semantics so that extattr_get_{fd,file}() return
a size_t. When performing a read, the number of bytes read will
be returned, unless the data pointer is NULL, in which case the
number of bytes of data are returned. This changes the API only.
o Modify the VOP_GETEXTATTR() vnode operation to accept a *size_t
argument so as to return the size, if desirable. If set to NULL,
the size will not be returned.
o Update various filesystems (pseodofs, ufs) to DTRT.
These changes should make extended attributes more useful and more
portable. More commits to rebuild the system call files, as well
as update userland utilities to follow.

- Add a third callback to the pfs_node structure. This one simply returns
non-zero if the specified requesting process is allowed to access the
specified node for the specified target process. This is used in
addition to the usual permission checks, e.g. when certain files don't
make sense for certain (system) processes.
- Make sure that pfs_lookup() and pfs_readdir() don't yap about files
which aren't pfs_visible(). Also check pfs_visible() before performing
reads and writes, to prevent the kind of races reported in SA-00:77 and
SA-01:55 (fork a child, open /proc/child/ctl, have that child fork a
setuid binary, and assume control of it).
- Add some more trace points.
- Rearrange the flag constants a little to simplify specifying and testing
for readability and writeability.
pseudofs_vnops.c:
- Track the aforementioned change.
- Add checks to pfs_open() to prevent opening read-only files for writing
or vice versa (pfs_{read,write} would block the actual reads and writes,
but it's still a bug to allow the open() to succeed). Also, return
EOPNOTSUPP if the caller attempts to lock the file.
- Add more trace points.
- Remove hardcoded uid, gid, mode from struct pfs_node; make pfs_getattr()
smart enough to get it right most of the time, and allow for callbacks
to handle the remaining cases. Rework the definition macros to match.
- Add lots of (conditional) debugging output.
- Fix a long-standing bug inherited from procfs: don't pretend to be a
read-only file system. Instead, return EOPNOTSUPP for operations we
truly can't support and allow others to fail silently. In particular,
pfs_lookup() now treats CREATE as LOOKUP. This may need more work.
- In pfs_lookup(), if the parent node is process-dependent, check that
the process in question still exists.
- Implement pfs_open() - its only current function is to check that the
process opening the file can see the process it belongs to.
- Finish adding support for writeable nodes.
- Bump module version number.
- Introduce lots of new bugs.
