f1f9870668 Minor style cleanup
We prefer 'while (0)' to 'while(0)' according to grep and stlye(9)'s
space after keyword rule. Remove a few stragglers of the latter.
Many of these usages were inconsistent within the file.

8a36da99de sys/kern: adoption of SPDX licensing ID tags.
Mainly focus on files that use BSD 2-Clause license, however the tool I
was using misidentified many licenses so this was mostly a manual - error
prone - task.

The Software Package Data Exchange (SPDX) group provides a specification
to make it easier for automated tools to detect and summarize well known
opensource licenses. We are gradually adopting the specification, noting
that the tags are considered only advisory and do not, in any way,
superceed or replace the license texts.

a6f63533a7 Check tty_gone() after allocating IO buffers. The tty lock has to be
dropped then reacquired due to using M_WAITOK, which opens a window in
which the tty device can disappear.  Check for this and return ENXIO
back up the call chain so that callers can cope.

This closes a race where TF_GONE would get set while buffers were being
allocated as part of ttydev_open(), causing a subsequent call to
ttydevsw_modem() later in ttydev_open() to assert.

f004528903 Remove statistics from the TTY queues.
I added counters to see how often fast copying to userspace was actually
performed, which was only useful during development. Remove these
statistics now we know it to be effective.

41ba7e9b13 Slightly improve the design of the TTY buffer.
The TTY buffers used the standard <sys/queue.h> lists. Unfortunately
they have a big shortcoming. If you want to have a double linked list,
but no tail pointer, it's still not possible to obtain the previous
element in the list. Inside the buffers we don't need them. This is why
I switched to custom linked list macros. The macros will also keep track
of the amount of items in the list. Because it doesn't use a sentinel,
we can just initialize the queues with zero.

In its simplest form (the output queue), we will only keep two
references to blocks in the queue, namely the head of the list and the
last block in use. All free blocks are stored behind the last block in
use.

I noticed there was a very subtle bug in the previous code: in a very
uncommon corner case, it would uma_zfree() a block in the queue before
calling memcpy() to extract the data from the block.

74bb9e3ad5 Fix some edge cases in the TTY queues:
- In the current design, when a TTY decreases its baud rate, it tries to
  shrink the queues. This may not always be possible, because it will
  not free any blocks that are still filled with data.

  Change the TTY queues to store a `quota' value as well, which means it
  will not free any blocks when changing the baud rate, but when placing
  blocks back into the queue. When the amount of blocks exceeds the
  quota, they get freed.

  It also fixes some edge cases, where TIOCSETA during read()/
  write()-calls could actually make the queue a tiny bit bigger than in
  normal cases.

- Don't leak blocks of memory when calling TIOCSETA when the device
  driver abandons the TTY while allocating memory.

- Create ttyoutq_init() and ttyinq_init() to initialize the queues,
  instead of initializing them by hand. The new TTY snoop driver also
  creates an outq, so it's good to have a proper interface to do this.

ce570f82cc Remove unused tty_gone() checks inside ttyoutq_read_uio().
When my earlier MPSAFE TTY prototypes still implemented line
disciplines, we needed a mechanism to abort read()'s on PTY master
devices when inside the line discipline. Because this is no longer the
case, these checks have become unneeded.

bc093719ca Integrate the new MPSAFE TTY layer to the FreeBSD operating system.
The last half year I've been working on a replacement TTY layer for the
FreeBSD kernel. The new TTY layer was designed to improve the following:

- Improved driver model:

  The old TTY layer has a driver model that is not abstract enough to
  make it friendly to use. A good example is the output path, where the
  device drivers directly access the output buffers. This means that an
  in-kernel PPP implementation must always convert network buffers into
  TTY buffers.

  If a PPP implementation would be built on top of the new TTY layer
  (still needs a hooks layer, though), it would allow the PPP
  implementation to directly hand the data to the TTY driver.

- Improved hotplugging:

  With the old TTY layer, it isn't entirely safe to destroy TTY's from
  the system. This implementation has a two-step destructing design,
  where the driver first abandons the TTY. After all threads have left
  the TTY, the TTY layer calls a routine in the driver, which can be
  used to free resources (unit numbers, etc).

  The pts(4) driver also implements this feature, which means
  posix_openpt() will now return PTY's that are created on the fly.

- Improved performance:

  One of the major improvements is the per-TTY mutex, which is expected
  to improve scalability when compared to the old Giant locking.
  Another change is the unbuffered copying to userspace, which is both
  used on TTY device nodes and PTY masters.

Upgrading should be quite straightforward. Unlike previous versions,
existing kernel configuration files do not need to be changed, except
when they reference device drivers that are listed in UPDATING.
