The "FTS_NOSTAT" option can avoid a lot of calls to stat(2) if it knows that a
directory could not possibly have subdirectories. This is decided by looking at
the link count: a subdirectory would increment its parent's link count by
virtue of its own ".." entry. This assumption only holds for UFS-like
filesystems that implement links and directories this way, so we must punt for

This is caused by a bug in clang's integrated assembler, causing malloc

the first line of a script exceeded MAXSHELLCMDLEN characters, then
exec_imgact_shell() silently truncated the line and passed on the truncated
interpreter name or argument. Now, exec_imgact_shell() will fail and return
ENOEXEC, which is the commonly used errno among Unix variants for this type
of error. (2) Previously, exec_imgact_shell()'s check on the length of the
interpreter's name was ineffective. In other words, exec_imgact_shell()
could not possibly fail and return ENAMETOOLONG. The reason being that the
length of the interpreter name had to exceed MAXSHELLCMDLEN characters in
order that ENAMETOOLONG be returned. But, the search for the end of the
interpreter name stops after at most MAXSHELLCMDLEN - 2 characters are
scanned. (In the end, this particular error is eventually discovered
outside of exec_imgact_shell() and ENAMETOOLONG is returned. So, the real
effect of this second change is that the error is detected earlier, in
exec_imgact_shell().)

This joint work of Dag-Erling Smørgrav and myself updates the
FFS quota system to support both traditional 32-bit and new 64-bit
quotas (for those of you who want to put 2+Tb quotas on your users).
By default quotas are not compiled into the kernel. To include them
in your kernel configuration you need to specify:
options QUOTA # Enable FFS quotas
If you are already running with the current 32-bit quotas, they
should continue to work just as they have in the past. If you
wish to convert to using 64-bit quotas, use `quotacheck -c 64';
if you wish to revert from 64-bit quotas back to 32-bit quotas,
use `quotacheck -c 32'.
There is a new library of functions to simplify the use of the
quota system, do `man quotafile' for details. If your application
is currently using the quotactl(2), it is highly recommended that
you convert your application to use the quotafile interface.
Note that existing binaries will continue to work.
Special thanks to John Kozubik of rsync.net for getting me

The .cprestore directive does its magic only after 'jal' and 'bal'

* Fix a race in chunk_dealloc_dss().
* Check for allocation failure before zeroing memory in base_calloc().
Merge enhancements from a divergent version of jemalloc:
* Convert thread-specific caching from magazines to an algorithm that is
more tunable, and implement incremental GC.
* Add support for medium size classes, [4KiB..32KiB], 2KiB apart by
default.
* Add dirty page tracking for pages within active small/medium object
runs. This allows malloc to track precisely which pages are in active
use, which makes dirty page purging more effective.
* Base maximum dirty page count on proportion of active memory.
* Use optional zeroing in arena_chunk_alloc() to avoid needless zeroing
of chunks. This is useful in the context of DSS allocation, since a
long-lived application may commonly recycle chunks.
* Increase the default chunk size from 1MiB to 4MiB.
Remove feature:
* Remove the dynamic rebalancing code, since thread caching reduces its
utility.
- Make sure the mode argument is either a character or a block device.
- Use S_IS*() instead of checking S_IF*-flags by hand.
- Don't use kern.devname when the argument is already NODEV.

When we had utmp(5), we had to list all the psuedo-terminals in ttys(5)
to make ttyslot(3) function properly. Now that pututxline(3) deals with
slot allocation internally (not based on TTY names), we don't need to
list all the TTYs on the system in ttys(5) to make user accounting work
properly.
This patch removes all the entries from the /etc/ttys files, but also
the pts(4) entries that were appended implicitly, which was added in
r154838.
Continuous catopen() calls cause 4 failig stat(2) each, which means a lot
of overhead. It is also a good idea to keep the opened catalogs in the memory
to speed up further catopen() calls to the same catalog since these catalogs
are not big at all. In this case, we count references and only free() the
allocated space when the reference count reaches 0. The reads and writes to
the cache are syncronized with an rwlock when these functions are called from
a threaded program.

I've noticed many applications do a bad job at timekeeping, for several
reasons:
- Applications like screen(1) don't update time records when restoring
the old user login record.
- Many applications only set ut_tv.tv_sec, not ut_tv.tv_usec.
This causes many problems for tools such as ac(8), which require the
timestamps to be properly ordered. This is why I've decided to let the
utmpx code obtain valid timestamps itself.
I've discussed this issue with the Austin Group and it will be fixed in
future revisions of the specification. The issue was that ut_line fields
weren't supposed to be valid for LOGIN_PROCESS entries, while
getutxline() would try to match these records anyway.
They also agreed on our way of implementing pututxline() without
getutxid() (which other operating systems also do), but unfortunately
they disagreed with our way of replacing DEAD_PROCESS entries, which is
a pity. The current specification allows the utmpx database to become
infinitely big over time.

It makes hardly any sense to expose a symbol which should only be
provided for binary compatibility, but it seems we don't have a lot of
choice here. There are many autoconf scripts out there that try to
create a binary that links against the old symbol to see whether
uname(3) is present. These scripts fail to detect uname(3) now.
It should be noted that the behaviour we implement is not against the
standards:
| The following shall be declared as a function and may also be defined
| as a macro:
|
| int uname(struct utsname *);
POSIX 2008 and XSI 7require strcoll() for opendir() is not true.
I can't find such requirement in POSIX 2008 and XSI 7.
So, back out that part of my commit, returning old strcmp(), and remove
this misleading comment.
It also matches now how our 'ls' works for years.
b) Remove comment expressed 2 fears:
1) One just simple describe how strcoll() works in _any_ context,
not for directories only. Are we plan to remove strcoll() from everything
just because it is little more complex than strcmp()? I doubt, and
directories give nothing different here. Moreover, strcoll() used
in 'ls' for years and nobody complaints yet.
2) Plain wrong statement about undefined strcoll() behaviour. strcoll()
always gives predictable results, falling back to strcmp() on any
trouble, see strcoll(3).
No objections from -current list discussion.
- Massively reduce BSS usage. Let futx_to_utx() dynamically allocate the
structure. There is only a very small amount of applications out there
that needs to use the utmpx database. Wasting 1 KB on unused
structures makes little sense.
- Just let getutxid() search for matching ut_id's for any *PROCESS-type.
This makes the code a bit more future-proof.
- Fix a POSIX-mistake: when reading POSIX and the OpenSolaris
implementation, getutxline() must return USER_PROCESS and
LOGIN_PROCESS records whose ut_lines match. When reading POSIX, it
seems LOGIN_PROCESS should not use ut_line at the first place. I have
reported this issue.
After comparing how other systems deal with utmp/utmpx, I noticed many
systems don't even care about ttyslot(3) anymore, since utmpx doesn't
use TTY slots anyway. We don't provide any tools to access old utmp
files anymore, so there is no use in letting applications write to a
proper offset within the utmp file.
Just let ttyslot(3) always return 0, which seems to be the default
behaviour on operating systems like Linux as well.
Nowadays uname(3) is an inline function around __xuname(3). Prevent
linkage of new binaries against this compatibility function, similar to
what I did with ttyslot(3).
This utility allows users to convert their wtmp databases to the new
format. It makes no sense for users to keep their wtmp log files if they
are unable to view them.
It basically copies ut_line into ut_id as well. This makes it possible
for last(1) and ac(8) to match login records with their corresponding
logout record.
I forgot to cast the size_t's back to off_t before negating them,
causing all sorts of artifacts where the log files would grow to 2^32 -
197 bytes.

Even though we use __sym_compat(), we should list the symbol in

ttyslot() is now listed as follows, which seems to do the right thing:

Phase out ttyslot(3).
The ttyslot() function was originally part for SUSv1, marked LEGACY in
SUSv2 and removed later on. This function only makes sense when using
utmp(5), because it was used to determine the offset of the record for
the controlling TTY. It makes little sense to keep it here, because the
new utmpx file format doesn't index based on TTY slots.

The utmpx interface is the standardized interface of the user accounting
database. The standard only defines a subset of the functions that were
present in System V-like systems.
I'd like to highlight some of the traits my implementation has:
- The standard allows the on-disk format to be different than the
in-memory representation (struct utmpx). Most operating systems don't
do this, but we do. This allows us to keep our ABI more stable, while
giving us the opportunity to modify the on-disk format. It also allows
us to use a common file format across different architectures (i.e.
byte ordering).
- Our implementation of pututxline() also updates wtmp and lastlog (now
called utx.log and utx.lastlogin). This means the databases are more
likely to be in sync.
- Care must be taken that our implementation discard any fields that are
not applicable. For example, our DEAD_PROCESS records do not hold a
TTY name. Just a time stamp, a record identifier and a process
identifier. It also guarantees that strings (ut_host, ut_line and
ut_user) are null terminated. ut_id is obviously not null terminated,
because it's not a string.
- The API and its behaviour should be conformant to POSIX, but there may
be things that slightly deviate from the standard. This implementation
uses separate file descriptors when writing to the log files. It also
doesn't use getutxid() to search for a field to overwrite. It uses an
allocation strategy similar to getutxid(), but prevents DEAD_PROCESS
records from accumulating.
Make sure libulog doesn't overwrite the manpages shipped with our C
library. Also keep the symbol list in Symbol.map sorted.
I'll bump __FreeBSD_version later this evening. I first want to convert
everything to <utmpx.h> and get rid of <utmp.h>.
Prior to this commit, fread/fwrite calls with size * nmemb > SIZE_MAX
were handled by reading or writing (size_t)(size * nmemb) bytes; for
example, on 32-bit platforms, fread(ptr, 641, 6700417, f) would read 1
byte and indicate that the requested 6700417 blocks had been read.
This commit adds a check for such integer overflows, and treats them as
if an overly large request was passed to read/write; i.e., it sets errno
to EINVAL, sets the error indicator on the file, and returns a short
object count (0, to be specific).
The overflow check involves an integer division, so as a performance
optimization we check first to see if both size and nmemb are less than
2^16; if they are, no overflow is possible and we avoid the division.
We assume here that size_t is at least 32 bits; this appears to be true
on all platforms FreeBSD supports.
Although this commit fixes an integer overflow, it is not likely to have
any security implications, since any program which would be affected by
this bug fix is quite clearly already very confused.

now type sema_t is a structure which can be put in a shared memory area,
and multiple processes can operate it concurrently.
User can either use mmap(MAP_SHARED) + sem_init(pshared=1) or use sem_open()
to initialize a shared semaphore.
Named semaphore uses file system and is located in /tmp directory, and its
file name is prefixed with 'SEMD', so now it is chroot or jail friendly.
In simplist cases, both for named and un-named semaphore, userland code
does not have to enter kernel to reduce/increase semaphore's count.
The semaphore is designed to be crash-safe, it means even if an application
is crashed in the middle of operating semaphore, the semaphore state is
still safely recovered by later use, there is no waiter counter maintained
by userland code.
The main semaphore code is in libc and libthr only has some necessary stubs,
this makes it possible that a non-threaded application can use semaphore
without linking to thread library.
Old semaphore implementation is kept libc to maintain binary compatibility.
The kernel ksem API is no longer used in the new implemenation.

but leave the strcmp(3) call in the function for now.
