This is required for KASAN: when a module is unloaded, poisoned regions
(e.g., pad areas between global variables) are left as such, so if they

The new structure is copy-on-write. With the assumption that path lookups are
significantly more frequent than chdirs and chrooting this is a win.
This provides stable root and jail root vnodes without the need to reference
them on lookup, which in turn means less work on globally shared structures.
Note this also happens to fix a bug where jail vnode was never referenced,
meaning subsequent access on lookup could run into use-after-free.

The arm kernel stack unwinder has apparently never been able to unwind when
the path of execution leads through a kernel module. There was code that
tried to handle modules by looking for the unwind data in them, but it did
so by trying to find symbols which have never existed in arm kernel
modules. That caused the unwind code to panic, and because part of panic
handling calls into the unwind code, that just created a recursion loop.
Locating the unwind data in a loaded module requires accessing the Elf
section headers to find the SHT_ARM_EXIDX section. For preloaded modules
those headers are present in a metadata blob. For dynamically loaded
modules, the headers are present only while the loading is in progress; the
memory is freed once the module is ready to use. For that reason, there is
new code in kern/link_elf.c, wrapped in #ifdef __arm__, to extract the
unwind info while the headers are loaded. The values are saved into new
fields in the linker_file structure which are also conditional on __arm__.
In arm/unwind.c there is new code to locally cache the per-module info
needed to find the unwind tables. The local cache is crafted for lockless
read access, because the unwind code often needs to run in context where
sleeping is not allowed. A large comment block describes the local cache
list, so I won't repeat it all here.
Some best-effort consumers may find trylock behavior for stack(9) symbol
resolution acceptable. Expose that behavior to such consumers.
This API is ugly. If in the future the modules and linker file list locking
is cleaned up such that the linker_files list can be iterated safely without
acquiring a sleepable lock, this API should be removed. However, most of
the time nothing will be holding the linker files lock exclusive and the
acquisition can proceed.

Mainly focus on files that use BSD 2-Clause license, however the tool I
was using misidentified 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.
A sysctl can have a custom handler that may access data that is initialized
via SYSINIT(9) or via a module event handler (also invoked via SYSINIT).
Thus, it is not safe to allow access to the module's sysctl-s until
the initialization is performed. Likewise, we should not allow access
to teh sysctl-s after the module is uninitialized.
The latter is easy to achieve by properly ordering linker_file_unregister_sysctls
and linker_file_sysuninit.
The former is not as easy for two reasons:
- the initialization may depend on tunables which get set when sysctl-s are
registered, so we need to set the tunables before running sysinit-s
- the initialization may try to dynamically add more sysctl-s under statically
defined sysctl nodes
So, this change splits the sysctl setup into two phases. In the first phase
the sysctl-s are registered as before but they are disabled and hidden from
consumers. In the second phase, done after sysinit-s, normal access to the
sysctl-s is enabled.
The change should affect only dynamic module loading and unloading after
the system boot-up. Nothing changes for sysctl-s compiled into the kernel
and sysctl-s in preloaded modules.

in examining cores from a kernel without debug symbols as a debugger

One set of variables describes the layout of 'struct linker_file' to

A second set of variables describes the layout of 'struct proc' and
'struct thread' to walk the list of processes in the kernel and the
threads in each process.
The 'pcb_size' variable is used to index into the stoppcbs[] array.
The 'vm_maxuser_address' is used to distinguish kernel virtual addresses

'vm_maxuser_address' is a cheap and simple way to differentiate kernel
