On the one hand, FIFOs should respect other variables not supported by
the fifofs vnode operation (such as _PC_NAME_MAX, _PC_LINK_MAX, etc.).
These values are fs-specific and must come from a fs-specific method.
On the other hand, filesystems that support FIFOs are required to
support _PC_PIPE_BUF on directory vnodes that can contain FIFOs.
Given this latter requirement, once the fs-specific VOP_PATHCONF
method supports _PC_PIPE_BUF for directories, it is also suitable for
FIFOs permitting a single VOP_PATHCONF method to be used for both
FIFOs and non-FIFOs.
To that end, retire all of the FIFO-specific pathconf methods from
filesystems and change FIFO-specific vnode operation switches to use
the existing fs-specific VOP_PATHCONF method. For fifofs, set it's
VOP_PATHCONF to VOP_PANIC since it should no longer be used.
While here, move _PC_PIPE_BUF handling out of vop_stdpathconf() so that
only filesystems supporting FIFOs will report a value. In addition,
only report a valid _PC_PIPE_BUF for directories and FIFOs.

Mainly focus on files that use BSD 3-Clause license.
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.
Special thanks to Wind River for providing access to "The Duke of
Highlander" tool: an older (2014) run over FreeBSD tree was useful as a
starting point.
Update filesystems not currently using vop_stdpathconf() in pathconf
VOPs to use vop_stdpathconf() for any configuration variables that do
not have filesystem-specific values. vop_stdpathconf() is used for
variables that have system-wide settings as well as providing default
values for some values based on system limits. Filesystems can still
explicitly override individual settings.

file descriptor opened for complimentary access exists as well.
The implementation of the guarantee is done by counting the
generations of readers and writers opens. We return success and not
EINTR or ERESTART error, when the sleep for complimentary opening is
interrupted, but the generation was changed during the sleep.
Longer explanation: assume there are two threads, A doing open("fifo",
O_RDONLY) and B doing open("fifo", O_WRONLY), and no other threads
either trying to open the fifo, nor there are any file descriptors
referencing the fifo. Before the change, it was possible e.g. for for
thread A to return a valid file descriptor, while thread B returned
EINTR if a signal to B was delivered simultaneously with the wakeup
from A. After the change, in this situation both A::open() and
B::open() succeed and the signal is made "as if" it was noticed
slightly later. Note that the signal actual delivery is not changed,
it is done by ast on syscall return path, so signal handler is still
executed before first instruction after syscall.

I found 8.3 is a history BSD version using socket to implement FIFO
pipe, it uses per-file seqcount to compare with writer generation
stored in per-pipe object. The concept is after all writers are gone,
the pipe enters next generation, all old readers have not closed the
pipe should get the indication that the pipe is disconnected, result
is they should get EPIPE, SIGPIPE or get POLLHUP in poll().
But newcomer should not know that previous writters were gone, it
should treat it as a fresh session.
I am trying to bring back FIFO pipe to history behavior. It is still
unclear that if single EOF flag can represent SBS_CANTSENDMORE and
SBS_CANTRCVMORE which socket-based version is using, but I have run
the poll regression test in tool directory, output is same as the one
on 8.3-STABLE now.
I think the output "not ok 18 FIFO state 6b: poll result 0 expected 1.
expected POLLHUP; got 0" might be bogus, because newcomer should not
know that old writers were gone. I got the same behavior on Linux.
Our implementation always return POLLIN for disconnected pipe even it
should return POLLHUP, but I think it is not wise to remove POLLIN for
compatible reason, this is our history behavior.

flag but not PIPE_WANTW, but FIFO pipe code does not understand this internal
state, when a FIFO peer reader closes the pipe, it wants to notify the writer,
it checks PIPE_WANTW, if not set, it skips calling wakeup(), so blocked writer
never noticed the case, but in general, the writer should return from the
syscall with EPIPE error code and may get SIGPIPE signal. Setting the
PIPE_WANTW fixed problem, or you can turn off direct write, it should fix the
problem too. This bug is found by PR/170203.
Another bug in FIFO pipe code is when peer closes the pipe, another end which
is being blocked in select() or poll() is not notified, it missed to call
pipeselwakeup().
Third problem is found in poll regression test, the existing code can not
pass 6b,6c,6d tests, but FreeBSD-4 works. This commit does not fix the
problem, I still need to study more to find the cause.

This makes it possible to support ftruncate() on non-vnode file types in
the future.
- 'struct fileops' grows a 'fo_truncate' method to handle an ftruncate() on
a given file descriptor.
- ftruncate() moves to kern/sys_generic.c and now just fetches a file
object and invokes fo_truncate().
- The vnode-specific portions of ftruncate() move to vn_truncate() in
vfs_vnops.c which implements fo_truncate() for vnode file types.
- Non-vnode file types return EINVAL in their fo_truncate() method.

and flags with an sxlock. This leads to a significant and measurable
performance improvement as a result of access to shared locking for
frequent lookup operations, reduced general overhead, and reduced overhead
in the event of contention. All of these are imported for threaded
applications where simultaneous access to a shared file descriptor array
occurs frequently. Kris has reported 2x-4x transaction rate improvements
on 8-core MySQL benchmarks; smaller improvements can be expected for many
workloads as a result of reduced overhead.
- Generally eliminate the distinction between "fast" and regular
acquisisition of the filedesc lock; the plan is that they will now all
be fast. Change all locking instances to either shared or exclusive
locks.
- Correct a bug (pointed out by kib) in fdfree() where previously msleep()
was called without the mutex held; sx_sleep() is now always called with
the sxlock held exclusively.
- Universally hold the struct file lock over changes to struct file,
rather than the filedesc lock or no lock. Always update the f_ops
field last. A further memory barrier is required here in the future
(discussed with jhb).
- Improve locking and reference management in linux_at(), which fails to
properly acquire vnode references before using vnode pointers. Annotate
improper use of vn_fullpath(), which will be replaced at a future date.
In fcntl(), we conservatively acquire an exclusive lock, even though in
some cases a shared lock may be sufficient, which should be revisited.
The dropping of the filedesc lock in fdgrowtable() is no longer required
as the sxlock can be held over the sleep operation; we should consider
removing that (pointed out by attilio).

underlying the POSIX fifo implementation. In 6.x/7.x, fifo access is
moved from the VFS layer, where it was serialized using the vnode
lock, to the file descriptor layer, where access is protected by a
reference count but not serialized. This exposed socket buffer
locking to high levels of parallelism in specific fifo workloads, such
as make -j 32, which expose as yet unresolved socket buffer bugs.
fi_sx re-adds serialization about the read and write routines,
although not paths that simply test socket buffer mbuf queue state,
such as the poll and kqueue methods. This restores the extra locking
cost previously present in some cases, but is an effective workaround
for the instability that has been experienced. This workaround should
be removed once the bug in socket buffer handling has been fixed.
