This adds the PT_GETREGSET and PT_SETREGSET ptrace types. These can be
used to access all the registers from a specified core dump note type.
The NT_PRSTATUS and NT_FPREGSET notes are initially supported. Other
machine-dependant types are expected to be added in the future.
The ptrace addr points to a struct iovec pointing at memory to hold the
registers along with its length. On success the length in the iovec is
updated to tell userspace the actual length the kernel wrote or, if the
base address is NULL, the length the kernel would have written.
Because the data field is an int the arguments are backwards when
compared to the Linux PTRACE_GETREGSET call.

This ptrace operation returns a structure containing the error and
return values from the current system call. It is only valid when a
thread is stopped during a system call exit (PL_FLAG_SCX is set).
The sr_error member holds the error value from the system call. Note
that this error value is the native FreeBSD error value that has _not_
been translated to an ABI-specific error value similar to the values
logged to ktrace.
If sr_error is zero, then the return values of the system call will be
set in sr_retval[0] and sr_retval[1].

Summary:
Added ptrace support for getting/setting the remaining part of the VSX registers
(the part that's not already covered by FPR or VR registers).
This is necessary to add support for VSX registers in debuggers.

those versions were inferred by new implementations of these functions

Since ptrace(2) syscall can return -1 for non-error situations, libc
wrappers set errno to 0 before performing the syscall, as the service
to the caller. On both i386 and amd64, the errno symbol was directly
referenced, which only works correctly in single-threaded process.
Change assembler wrappers for ptrace(2) to get current thread errno
location by calling __error(). Allow __error interposing, as
currently allowed in cerror().

First, PL_FLAG_FORKED events now also set a PL_FLAG_VFORKED flag when
the new child was created via vfork() rather than fork(). Second, a
new PL_FLAG_VFORK_DONE event can now be enabled via the PTRACE_VFORK
event mask. This new stop is reported after the vfork parent resumes
due to the child calling exit or exec. Debuggers can use this stop to
reinsert breakpoints in the vfork parent process before it resumes.

ptrace() now stores a mask of optional events in p_ptevents. Currently
this mask is a single integer, but it can be expanded into an array of
integers in the future.
Two new ptrace requests can be used to manipulate the event mask:
PT_GET_EVENT_MASK fetches the current event mask and PT_SET_EVENT_MASK
sets the current event mask.
The current set of events include:
- PTRACE_EXEC: trace calls to execve().
- PTRACE_SCE: trace system call entries.
- PTRACE_SCX: trace syscam call exits.
- PTRACE_FORK: trace forks and auto-attach to new child processes.
- PTRACE_LWP: trace LWP events.
The S_PT_SCX and S_PT_SCE events in the procfs p_stops flags have
been replaced by PTRACE_SCE and PTRACE_SCX. PTRACE_FORK replaces
P_FOLLOW_FORK and PTRACE_LWP replaces P2_LWP_EVENTS.
The PT_FOLLOW_FORK and PT_LWP_EVENTS ptrace requests remain for
compatibility but now simply toggle corresponding flags in the
event mask.
While here, document that PT_SYSCALL, PT_TO_SCE, and PT_TO_SCX both
modify the event mask and continue the traced process.

must first attach to the traced process. If the tracing process
exits without detaching, the traced process will be killed rather
than continued. For the duration of the tracing session, the traced
process is reparented to the tracing process (with resulting expected
behaviors). It is permissible to trace more than one other process
at a time. When using waitpid() to monitor the behavior of the traced
process, signals are intercepted: they may optionally then be
forwarded using ptrace(). Signals are generated normally by and for
the process, but also by the tracing facility (SIGTRAP).
