Break out UFS2 and FFS extattr delete and list vnode operations from

cleans up the implementations, and makes the results more readable,

kern.file sysctl, don't return information about processes that
fail p_cansee(td, p). This prevents sockstat and related
programs from seeing file descriptors owned by processes not
in the same jail as the thread, as well as having implications
for MAC, etc.
This is a partial solution: it permits an information leak about
the number of descriptors in the sizing calculation (but this is
not new information, you can also get it from kern.openfiles),
and doesn't attempt to mask file descriptors based on the
properties of the descriptor, only the process referencing it.
However, it provides most of what you want under most
circumstances, without complicating the locking.

The index is used rather than a "struct file *" since it conveys a bit

do not clear the `sb_sel' member of the sockbuf structure
while invalidating the receive sockbuf in sorflush(), called
from soshutdown().
The panic was reproduceable from user land by attaching a knote
with EVFILT_READ filters to a socket, disabling further reads
from it using shutdown(2), and then closing it. knote_remove()
was called to remove all knotes from the socket file descriptor
by detaching each using its associated filterops' detach call-
back function, sordetach() in this case, which tried to remove
itself from the invalidated sockbuf's klist (sb_sel.si_note).

When a signal is being delivered to process, first find a sigwait
thread to deliver, POSIX's argument is speed of delivering signal
to sigwait thread is faster than other ways. A signal in its wait
set will cause sigwait to return the signal number, a signal not
in its wait set but in not blocked by the thread also causes sigwait
to return, but sigwait returns EINTR, sigwait is oneshot operation,
only one signal can be delivered to its wait set, when a signal is
delivered to the sigwait thread, the thread's sigwait state is canceled.

1. There was a race condition between a thread unlocking
a umtx and the thread contesting it. If the unlocking
thread won the race it may try to wakeup a thread that
was not yet in msleep(). The contesting thread would then
go to sleep to await a wakeup that would never come. It's
not possible to close the race by using a lock because
calls to casuptr() may have to fault a page in from swap.
Instead, the race was closed by introducing a flag that
the unlocking thread will set when waking up a thread.
The contesting thread will check for this flag before
going to sleep. For now the flag is kept in td_flags,
but it may be better to use some other member or create
a new one because of the possible performance/contention
issues of having to own sched_lock. Thanks to jhb for
pointing me in the right direction on this one.
2. Once a umtx was contested all future locks and unlocks
were happening in the kernel, regardless of whether it
was contested or not. To prevent this from happening,
when a thread locks a umtx it checks the queue for that
umtx and unsets the contested bit if there are no other
threads waiting on it. Again, this is slightly more
complicated than it needs to be because we can't hold
a lock across casuptr(). So, the thread has to check
the queue again after unseting the bit, and reset the
contested bit if it finds that another thread has put
itself on the queue in the mean time.
3. Remove the if... block for unlocking an uncontested
umtx, and replace it with a KASSERT. The _only_ time
a thread should be unlocking a umtx in the kernel is
if it is contested.
large to huge amounts of small or medium sized receive buffers. The problem
with these situations is that they eat up the available DMA address space
very quickly when using mbufs or even mbuf clusters. Additionally this
facility provides a direct mapping between 32-bit integers and these buffers.
This is needed for devices originally designed for 32-bit systems. Ususally
the virtual address of the buffer is used as a handle to find the buffer as
soon as it is returned by the card. This does not work for 64-bit machines
and hence this mapping is needed.
multiple mutex pools with different options and sizes. Mutex pools can
be created with either the default sleep mutexes or with spin mutexes.
A dynamically created mutex pool can now be destroyed if it is no longer
needed.
Create two pools by default, one that matches the existing pool that
uses the MTX_NOWITNESS option that should be used for building higher
level locks, and a new pool with witness checking enabled.
Modify the users of the existing mutex pool to use the appropriate pool
in the new implementation.

- Limit the total number of pipes so that we do not
exhaust all vm objects in the kernel map. When
this limit is reached, a ratelimited message will
be printed to the console.
- Put a soft limit on the amount of memory consumable
by pipes. Once the limit has been reached, all new
pipes will be limited to 4K in size, rather than the
default of 16K.
- Put a limit on the number of pages that may be used
for high speed page flipping in order to reduce the
amount of wired memory. Pipe writes that occur
while this limit is exceeded will fall back to
non-page flipping mode.
The above values are auto-tuned in subr_param.c and
are scaled to take into account both the size of
physical memory and the size of the kernel map.
These limits help to reduce the "kernel resources exhausted"
panics that could be caused by opening a large
number of pipes. (Pipes alone are no longer able
to exhaust all resources, but other kernel memory hogs
in league with pipes may still be able to do so.)
