srandom(9) is meaningless on SMP systems or any system with, say,
interrupts. One could never rely on random(9) to produce a reproducible
sequence of outputs on the basis of a specific srandom() seed because the
global state was shared by all kernel contexts. As such, removing it is
literally indistinguishable to random(9) consumers (as compared with
retaining it).
Mark random(9) as deprecated and slated for quick removal. This is not to
say we intend to remove all fast, non-cryptographic PRNG(s) in the kernel.
It/they just won't be random(9), as it exists today, in either name or
implementation.
Before random(9) is removed, a replacement will be provided and in-tree
consumers will be converted.
Note that despite the name, the random(9) interface does not bear any
resemblance to random(3). Instead, it is the same crummy 1988 Park-Miller
LCG used in libc rand(3).

This allows replacing "sys/eventfilter.h" includes with "sys/_eventfilter.h"
in other header files (e.g., sys/{bus,conf,cpu}.h) and reduces header
pollution substantially.
EVENTHANDLER_DECLARE and EVENTHANDLER_LIST_DECLAREs were moved out of .c
files into appropriate headers (e.g., sys/proc.h, powernv/opal.h).
As a side effect of reduced header pollution, many .c files and headers no
longer contain needed definitions. The remainder of the patch addresses
adding appropriate includes to fix those files.
LOCK_DEBUG and LOCK_FILE_LINE_ARG are moved to sys/_lock.h, as required by
sys/mutex.h since r326106 (but silently protected by header pollution prior
to this change).
No functional change (intended). Of course, any out of tree modules that

proc0 and init are setup as a circular dependency.
create_init() calls fork1() which calls do_fork(). There the
newproc (initproc) is setup with a reaper of proc0 who's reaper
points to itself. The newproc (initproc) is then put on its
reaper's (proc0) p_reaplist (initproc is a descendants of proc0
for proc0 to reap). Upon return to create_init(), proc0 is
added to initproc's p_reaplist (which would mean proc0 is a
descendant of init, for init to reap). This creates a
circular dependency which eventually leads to LIST corruptions
when trying to kill init and a proc0.
For the base system we never really hit this case during reboot.

Uses of mallocarray(9).
The use of mallocarray(9) has rocketed the required swap to build FreeBSD.
This is likely caused by the allocation size attributes which put extra pressure
on the compiler.
Given that most of these checks are superfluous we have to choose better
where to use mallocarray(9). We still have more uses of mallocarray(9) but
hopefully this is enough to bring swap usage to a reasonable level.

Focus on code where we are doing multiplications within malloc(9). None of
these ire likely to overflow, however the change is still useful as some
static checkers can benefit from the allocation attributes we use for
mallocarray.
This initial sweep only covers malloc(9) calls with M_NOWAIT. No good
reason but I started doing the changes before r327796 and at that time it
was convenient to make sure the sorrounding code could handle NULL values.

independent functions with important roles in the early boot process:
mi_startup (with the "exit" recorded when it becomes swapper),
start_init (with the "exit" recorded when the thread is about to
"return" into the newly created init process), vfs_mountroot, and
vfs_mountroot_wait.
Upon successful completion, the execve() system call invokes
exec_setregs() to initialize the registers of the initial thread of the
newly executed process. What is weird is that when execve() returns, it
still goes through the normal system call return path, clobbering the
registers with the system call's return value (td->td_retval).
Though this doesn't seem to be problematic for x86 most of the times (as
the value of eax/rax doesn't matter upon startup), this can be pretty
frustrating for architectures where function argument and return
registers overlap (e.g., ARM). On these systems, exec_setregs() also
needs to initialize td_retval.
Even worse are architectures where cpu_set_syscall_retval() sets
registers to values not derived from td_retval. On these architectures,
there is no way cpu_set_syscall_retval() can set registers to the way it
wants them to be upon the start of execution.
To get rid of this madness, let sys_execve() return EJUSTRETURN. This
will cause cpu_set_syscall_retval() to leave registers intact. This
makes process execution easier to understand. It also eliminates the
difference between execution of the initial process and successive ones.
The initial call to sys_execve() is not performed through a system call
context.

This introduces a facility to EVENTHANDLER(9) for explicitly defining a
reference to an event handler list. This is useful since previously all
invokers of events had to do a locked traversal of the global list of
event handler lists in order to find the appropriate event handler list.
By keeping a pointer to the appropriate list an invoker can avoid this
traversal completely. The pointer is initialized with SYSINIT(9) during
the eventhandler stage. Users registering interest in events do not need
to know if the event is backed by such a list, since the list is added
to the global list of lists. As with lists that are not pre-defined it
is safe to register for the events before the list has been created.
This converts the process_* and thread_* events to using the new
facility, as these are events whose locked traversals end up showing up
significantly in ports build workflows (and presumably other workflows
with many short lived threads/procs). It may be advantageous to convert
other events to using the new facility.
The el_flags field is now unused, but leave it be so that this revision
can be MFC'd.

For all architectures, the syscall trap handlers have to allocate the
structure on the stack. The structure takes 88 bytes on 64bit arches
which is not negligible. Also, it cannot be easily found by other
code, which e.g. caused duplication of some members of the structure
to struct thread already. The change removes td_dbg_sc_code and
td_dbg_sc_nargs which were directly copied from syscall_args.
The structure is put into the copied on fork part of the struct thread
to make the syscall arguments information correct in the child after
fork.
This move will also allow several more uses shortly.

exiting (NOTE_EXIT->knlist_remove_inevent()), two things happen:
- knote kn_knlist pointer is reset
- INFLUX knote is removed from the process knlist.
And, there are two consequences:
- KN_LIST_UNLOCK() on such knote is nop
- there is nothing which would block exit1() from processing past the
knlist_destroy() (and knlist_destroy() resets knlist lock pointers).
Both consequences result either in leaked process lock, or
dereferencing NULL function pointers for locking.
Handle this by stopping embedding the process knlist into struct proc.
Instead, the knlist is allocated together with struct proc, but marked
as autodestroy on the zombie reap, by knlist_detach() function. The
knlist is freed when last kevent is removed from the list, in
particular, at the zombie reap time if the list is empty. As result,
the knlist_remove_inevent() is no longer needed and removed.
Other changes:
In filt_procattach(), clear NOTE_EXEC and NOTE_FORK desired events
from kn_sfflags for knote registered by kernel to only get NOTE_CHILD
notifications. The flags leak resulted in excessive
NOTE_EXEC/NOTE_FORK reports.
Fix immediate note activation in filt_procattach(). Condition should
be either the immediate CHILD_NOTE activation, or immediate NOTE_EXIT
report for the exiting process.
In knote_fork(), do not perform racy check for KN_INFLUX before kq
lock is taken. Besides being racy, it did not accounted for notes
just added by scan (KN_SCAN).
Some minor and incomplete style fixes.
