of one more character should not be an issue since encoding values
that long are not supported by libc. The destination string is
treated as a NUL terminated string, but it is only passed to strcmp()

In the case where a file lacks a trailing newline, there is some "evil" code to
reverse goto the tokenizing code ("make_token") for the final token in the

Ideally, this code would be restructured to avoid this ugly construction.

Summary of changes:
- Replace all instances of FILES/TESTS with ${PACKAGE}FILES. This ensures that
namespacing is kept with FILES appropriately, and that this shouldn't need
to be repeated if the namespace changes -- only the definition of PACKAGE
needs to be changed
- Allow PACKAGE to be overridden by callers instead of forcing it to always be
`tests`. In the event we get to the point where things can be split up
enough in the base system, it would make more sense to group the tests
with the blocks they're a part of, e.g. byacc with byacc-tests, etc
- Remove PACKAGE definitions where possible, i.e. where FILES wasn't used
previously.
- Remove unnecessary TESTSPACKAGE definitions; this has been elided into
bsd.tests.mk
- Remove unnecessary BINDIRs used previously with ${PACKAGE}FILES;
${PACKAGE}FILESDIR is now automatically defined in bsd.test.mk.
- Fix installation of files under data/ subdirectories in lib/libc/tests/hash
and lib/libc/tests/net/getaddrinfo
- Remove unnecessary .include <bsd.own.mk>s (some opportunistic cleanup)
Document the proposed changes in share/examples/tests/tests/... via examples

The type definitions and constants that were used by COMPAT_CLOUDABI64
are a literal copy of some headers stored inside of CloudABI's C
library, cloudlibc. What is annoying is that we can't make use of
cloudlibc's system call list, as the format is completely different and
doesn't provide enough information. It had to be synced in manually.
We recently decided to solve this (and some other problems) by moving
the ABI definitions into a separate file:
https://github.com/NuxiNL/cloudabi/blob/master/cloudabi.txt
This file is processed by a pile of Python scripts to generate the
header files like before, documentation (markdown), but in our case more
importantly: a FreeBSD system call table.
This change discards the old files in sys/contrib/cloudabi and replaces
them by the latest copies, which requires some minor changes here and
there. Because cloudabi.txt also enforces consistent names of the system
call arguments, we have to patch up a small number of system call
implementations to use the new argument names.
The new header files can also be included directly in FreeBSD kernel

and geom_uncompress(4):
1. mkuzip(8):
- Proper support for eliminating all-zero blocks when compressing an
image. This feature is already supported by the geom_uzip(4) module
and CLOOP format in general, so it's just a matter of making mkuzip(8)
match. It should be noted, however that this feature while it sounds
great, results in very slight improvement in the overall compression
ratio, since compressing default 16k all-zero block produces only 39
bytes compressed output block, which is 99.8% compression ratio. With
typical average compression ratio of amd64 binaries and data being
around 60-70% the difference between 99.8% and 100.0% is not that
great further diluted by the ratio of number of zero blocks in the
uncompressed image to the overall number of blocks being less than
0.5 (typically). However, this may be important from performance
standpoint, so that kernel are not spinning its wheels decompressing
those empty blocks every time this zero region is read. It could also
be important when you create huge image mostly filled with zero
blocks for testing purposes.
- New feature allowing to de-duplicate output image. It turns out that
if you twist CLOOP format a bit you can do that as well. And unlike
zero-blocks elimination, this gives a noticeable improvement in the
overall compression ratio, reducing output image by something like
3-4% on my test UFS2 3GB image consisting of full FreeBSD base system
plus some of the packages (openjdk, apache etc), about 2.3GB worth of
file data (800+MB compressed). The only caveat is that images created
with this feature "on" would not work on older versions of FeeBSDxi
kernel, hence it's turned off by default.
- provide options to control both features and document them in manual
page.
- merge in all relevant LZMA compression support from the mkulzma(8),
add new option to select between both.
- switch license from ad-hoc beerware into standard 2-clause BSD.
2. geom_uzip(4):
- implement support for de-duplicated images;
- optimize some code paths to handle "all-zero" blocks without reading
any compressed data;
- beef up manual page to explain that geom_uzip(4) is not limited only
to md(4) images. The compressed data can be written to the block
device and accessed directly via magic of GEOM(4) and devfs(4),
including to mount root fs from a compressed drive.
- convert debug log code from being compiled in conditionally into
being present all the time and provide two sysctls to turn it on or
off. Due to intended use of the module, it can be used in
environments where there may not be a luxury to put new kernel with
debug code enabled. Having those options handy allows debug issues
without as much problem by just having access to serial console or
network shell access to a box/appliance. The resulting additional
CPU cycles are just few int comparisons and branches, and those are
minuscule when compared to data decompression which is the main
feature of the module.
- hopefully improve robustness and resiliency of the geom_uzip(4) by
performing some of the data validation / range checking on the TOC
entries and rejecting to attach to an image if those checks fail.
- merge in all relevant LZMA decompression support from the
geom_uncompress(4), enable automatically when appropriate format is
indicated in the header.
- move compilation work into its own worker thread so that it does not
clog g_up. This allows multiple instances work in parallel utilizing

Add two new functions, sysdecode_abi_to_freebsd_errno() and
sysdecode_freebsd_to_abi_errno(), which convert errno values between
the native FreeBSD ABI and other supported ABIs. Note that the
mappings are not necessarily perfect meaning in some cases multiple
errors in one ABI might map to a single error in another ABI. In that
case, the reverse mapping will return one of the errors that maps, but
which error is non-deterministic.
Change truss to always report the raw error value to the user but
use libsysdecode to map it to a native errno value that can be used
with strerror() to generate a description. Previously truss reported
the "converted" error value. Now the user will always see the exact
error value that the application sees.
Change kdump to report the truly raw error value to the user. Previously
kdump would report the absolute value of the raw error value (so for
Linux binaries it didn't output the FreeBSD error value, but the positive
value of the Linux error). Now it reports the real (i.e. negative) error
value for Linux binaries. Also, use libsysdecode to convert the native
FreeBSD error reported in the ktrace record to the raw error used by the

A new sysdecode_syscallname() function accepts a system call code and
returns a string of the corresponding name (or NULL if the code is
unknown). To support different process ABIs, the new function accepts a
value from a new sysdecode_abi enum as its first argument to select the
ABI in use. Current ABIs supported include FREEBSD (native binaries),
FREEBSD32, LINUX, LINUX32, and CLOUDABI64. Note that not all ABIs are
supported by all platforms. In general, a given ABI is only supported
if a platform can execute binaries for that ABI.
To simplify the implementation, libsysdecode's build reuses the
existing pre-generated files from the kernel source tree rather than
duplicating new copies of said files during the build.
kdump(1) and truss(1) now use these functions to map system call
identifiers to names. For kdump(1), a new 'syscallname()' function
consolidates duplicated code from ktrsyscall() and ktrsyscallret().

- Fixed missing null terminators on cross references
- Disabled exceptions / RTTI in the build for smaller binaries
- Changed phandle order generation to be identical to GPL'd dtc
This is rather pedantic, as for most architectures it holds that
sizeof(type *) == sizeof(type **)

sysdecode_ioctlname() function. This function matches the behavior
of the truss variant in that it returns a pointer to a string description
for known ioctls. The caller is responsible for displaying unknown
ioctl requests. For kdump this meant moving the logic to handle unknown
ioctl requests out of the generated function and into an ioctlname()
function in kdump.c instead.

This also makes the -z (zero) flag work correctly

system call information such as system call arguments. Initially this
will consist of pulling duplicated code out of truss and kdump though it
may prove useful for other utilities in the future.
This commit moves the shared utrace(2) record parser out of kdump into
the library and updates kdump and truss to use it. One difference from
the previous version is that the library version treats unknown events
that start with the "RTLD" signature as unknown events. This simplifies
the interface and allows the consumer to decide how to handle all
non-recognized events. Instead, this function only generates a string
description for known malloc() and RTLD records.
