glibc-based interface.
Unfortunately, the glibc maintainers, despite knowing the existence
of the FreeBSD qsort_r(3) interface in 2004 and refused to add the
same interface to glibc based on grounds of the lack of standardization
and portability concerns, has decided it was a good idea to introduce
their own qsort_r(3) interface in 2007 as a GNU extension with a
slightly different and incompatible interface.
With the adoption of their interface as POSIX standard, let's switch
to the same prototype, there is no need to remain incompatible.
C++ and C applications written for the historical FreeBSD interface
get source level compatibility when building in C++ mode, or when
building with a C compiler with C11 generics support, provided that
the caller passes a fifth parameter of qsort_r() that exactly matches
the historical FreeBSD comparator function pointer type and does not
redefine the historical qsort_r(3) prototype in their source code.

The primary benefit is maintaining a completely shared
code base with the community allowing FreeBSD to receive
new features sooner and with less effort.
I would advise against doing 'zpool upgrade'
or creating indispensable pools using new
features until this change has had a month+
to soak.
Work on merging FreeBSD support in to what was
at the time "ZFS on Linux" began in August 2018.
I first publicly proposed transitioning FreeBSD
to (new) OpenZFS on December 18th, 2018. FreeBSD
support in OpenZFS was finally completed in December
2019. A CFT for downstreaming OpenZFS support in
to FreeBSD was first issued on July 8th. All issues
that were reported have been addressed or, for
a couple of less critical matters there are
pull requests in progress with OpenZFS. iXsystems
has tested and dogfooded extensively internally.
The TrueNAS 12 release is based on OpenZFS with
some additional features that have not yet made
it upstream.
Improvements include:
project quotas, encrypted datasets,
allocation classes, vectorized raidz,
vectorized checksums, various command line
improvements, zstd compression.
Thanks to those who have helped along the way:
Ryan Moeller, Allan Jude, Zack Welch, and many
others.

Mainly focus on files that use BSD 2-Clause license, however the tool I
was using mis-identified 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.
Add some rules to more closely match what illumos does when an address
resolves to multiple symbols:
- prefer non-local symbols
- prefer symbols with fewer leading underscores and no leading '$'
Add some regression tests to verify these rules.
Extend the file handle cache entries to include symbol tables as well. An
index is used to implement binary search by symbol value. Lookups by
name are comparatively rare and are thus still implemented with a linear
search, but support for a binary search by name would be straightforward
to add if needed.
When looking up an object by name, allow prefix matches if no direct match
is found. This allows one to, for example, match libc entry probes with:
# dtrace -n 'pid$target:libc.so::entry' -c ./foo
instead of requiring "libc.so.7" or a glob.
Also remove proc_obj2map() as it currently just duplicates the
functionality of proc_name2map(). It's supposed to take a Solaris
link-map ID as a paramter, but support for this isn't implemented and
isn't required to support DTrace's pid provider.
libproc previously created a new handle for each symbol lookup, which
gives rather egregious performance for DTrace's ustack() action. With
this change libproc will cache the libelf descriptor upon access, making
lookups much faster in the common case.
As of r278658 libproc looks for debug files under /usr/lib/debug and will
use them if available. This change fleshes out that support a bit further:
- Check for a .gnu_debuglink section and use the file name specified
there if one is present.
- Validate external debug files with the CRC in the .gnu_debuglink
section so as to avoid using stale or corrupt debug files.
- Search for debug files in the directory containing the referencing
object or in the .debug subdirectory, as GDB does.
This allows librtld_db to fetch the PID from a handle without calling into
libproc. Together with r303531, this means that librtld_db no longer
references symbols from libproc.
modifications to libproc to support fetching the CTF info for a given file.
With this change, dtrace(1) is able to resolve type info for function and
USDT probe arguments, and function return values. In particular, the args[n]
syntax should now work for referencing arguments of userland probes,
provided that the requisite CTF info is available.
The uctf tests pass if the test programs are compiled with CTF info. The
current infrastructure around the DTrace test suite doesn't support this
yet.

erroneously skip symbols that were not mangled at all. Fix this by
moving the return into the preceding if block.
While here, simplify the code by letting __cxa_demangle() allocate the
needed space for the demangled symbol. This also fixes a memory leak,
which would occur whenever __cxa_demangle() failed.

These will be fleshed out as part of the DTrace userland tracing
development.
For now, the kernel tracing part of DTrace requires minimal functionality
for this library.
The API for this library is deliberately different from the libproc in
OpenSolaris due to licensing restrictions.
