sv_set_syscall_retval - the method to set a return value for usermode

trap handlers.
Syscallenter() fetches arguments, calls syscall implementation from

It is a bit hard to implement this in linprocfs right now, so I am not

/proc/<pid>/fd symlink, which points to /dev/fd only if the calling

Add video clipping support but with the caveats below.
Background info:
Video clipping allows the user to provide either a series of clip rectangles
or a clip bitmap to the driver and have the driver mask the video according
to the clipping specs provided.
Adding support for clipping to the FreeBSD Linux emulator is problematic
because it seems that this feature is not supported by many drivers and
therefore it is ignored by many applications. Unfortunately, when not
using it, rather than passing in a null clipping list, some apps leave the
clipping fields uninitialized, casuing random values to be passed in. In
the case where the driver does not use the clipping info, this is not a
problem (although it is bad form). But the Linux emulator does not know
which drivers will use this and which won't, so the Linux emulator must
try to handle this clip list, and deal gracefully with cases where the
values seem to be uninitialized.
Video clipping info is passed in using the VIDIOCSWIN ioctl in two fields
in the video_window structure: the integer clipcount and the pointer clips.
How the linuxulator handles this from this commit on:
* if (clipcount == VIDEO_CLIP_BITMAP)
The clips variable is a void * pointer to a 128*625 byte
(1024*625 bit) memory area containing a bitmap of the clipping area.
The pointer in the video_window structure is copied, but no
video_clip structures are copied.
* if (clipcount > 0 && clipcount <= 16384)
The clips variable is pointer to a list of video_clip structures. Up
to clipcount structures are copied and passed to the driver.
The upper limit of 16384 was imposed here so that user code that does
not properly initialize clipcount falls through below and no attempt
is made to copy an uninitialized list. This value was found by
examining Linux drivers that support the clip list.
* else
The clipcount is either negative (but not VIDEO_CLIP_BITMAP), zero or
positive (> 16384).
All these cases are treated as invalid data. Both the clipcount field
and clips pointer are forced to zero/NULL and passed to the driver.
It should be noted that, at the time of developing this V4L emulator code,
the pwc(4) V4L driver does not support clipping.

When renaming a directory it passes through several intermediate
states. First its new name will be created causing it to have two
names (from possibly different parents). Next, if it has different
parents, its value of ".." will be changed from pointing to the old
parent to pointing to the new parent. Concurrently, its old name
will be removed bringing it back into a consistent state. When fsck
encounters an extra name for a directory, it offers to remove the
"extraneous hard link"; when it finds that the names have been
changed but the update to ".." has not happened, it offers to rewrite
".." to point at the correct parent. Both of these changes were
considered unexpected so would cause fsck in preen mode or fsck in
background mode to fail with the need to run fsck manually to fix
these problems. Fsck running in preen mode or background mode now
corrects these expected inconsistencies that arise during directory
rename. The functionality added with this update is used by fsck
running in background mode to make these fixes.
Solution:
This update adds three new fsck sysctl commands to support background
fsck in correcting expected inconsistencies that arise from incomplete
directory rename operations. They are:
setcwd(dirinode) - set the current directory to dirinode in the
filesystem associated with the snapshot.
setdotdot(oldvalue, newvalue) - Verify that the inode number for ".."
in the current directory is oldvalue then change it to newvalue.
unlink(nameptr, oldvalue) - Verify that the inode number associated
with nameptr in the current directory is oldvalue then unlink it.
As with all other fsck sysctls, these new ones may only be used by
processes with appropriate priviledge.

native devices which support the v4l API from processes running within
the linuxulator, e.g. skype or flash can access the multimedia/pwcbsd driver.
Not tested is firmware upload, framebuffer stuff and video tuner stuff

in progress, but can not be tested due to lack of a suitable device).
The submitter tested this sucessfully with Skype and flash apps on amd64 and
i386 with the multimedia/pwcbsd driver.
