changes in MD code are trivial, before this change, trapsignal and
sendsig use discrete parameters, now they uses member fields of
ksiginfo_t structure. For sendsig, this change allows us to pass
POSIX realtime signal value to user code.
2. Remove cpu_thread_siginfo, it is no longer needed because we now always
generate ksiginfo_t data and feed it to libpthread.
3. Add p_sigqueue to proc structure to hold shared signals which were
blocked by all threads in the proc.
4. Add td_sigqueue to thread structure to hold all signals delivered to
thread.
5. i386 and amd64 now return POSIX standard si_code, other arches will
be fixed.
6. In this sigqueue implementation, pending signal set is kept as before,
an extra siginfo list holds additional siginfo_t data for signals.
kernel code uses psignal() still behavior as before, it won't be failed
even under memory pressure, only exception is when deleting a signal,
we should call sigqueue_delete to remove signal from sigqueue but
not SIGDELSET. Current there is no kernel code will deliver a signal
with additional data, so kernel should be as stable as before,
a ksiginfo can carry more information, for example, allow signal to
be delivered but throw away siginfo data if memory is not enough.
SIGKILL and SIGSTOP have fast path in sigqueue_add, because they can
not be caught or masked.
The sigqueue() syscall allows user code to queue a signal to target
process, if resource is unavailable, EAGAIN will be returned as
specification said.
Just before thread exits, signal queue memory will be freed by
sigqueue_flush.
Current, all signals are allowed to be queued, not only realtime signals.

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.

Give DEVFS a proper inode called struct cdev_priv. It is important
to keep in mind that this "inode" is shared between all DEVFS
mountpoints, therefore it is protected by the global device mutex.
Link the cdev_priv's into a list, protected by the global device
mutex. Keep track of each cdev_priv's state with a flag bit and
of references from mountpoints with a dedicated usecount.
Reap the benefits of much improved kernel memory allocator and the
generally better defined device driver APIs to get rid of the tables
of pointers + serial numbers, their overflow tables, the atomics
to muck about in them and all the trouble that resulted in.
This makes RAM the only limit on how many devices we can have.
The cdev_priv is actually a super struct containing the normal cdev
as the "public" part, and therefore allocation and freeing has moved
to devfs_devs.c from kern_conf.c.
The overall responsibility is (to be) split such that kern/kern_conf.c
is the stuff that deals with drivers and struct cdev and fs/devfs
handles filesystems and struct cdev_priv and their private liason
exposed only in devfs_int.h.
Move the inode number from cdev to cdev_priv and allocate inode
numbers properly with unr. Local dirents in the mountpoints
(directories, symlinks) allocate inodes from the same pool to
guarantee against overlaps.
Various other fields are going to migrate from cdev to cdev_priv
in the future in order to hide them. A few fields may migrate
from devfs_dirent to cdev_priv as well.
Protect the DEVFS mountpoint with an sx lock instead of lockmgr,
this lock also protects the directory tree of the mountpoint.
Give each mountpoint a unique integer index, allocated with unr.
Use it into an array of devfs_dirent pointers in each cdev_priv.
Initially the array points to a single element also inside cdev_priv,
but as more devfs instances are mounted, the array is extended with
malloc(9) as necessary when the filesystem populates its directory
tree.
Retire the cdev alias lists, the cdev_priv now know about all the
relevant devfs_dirents (and their vnodes) and devfs_revoke() will
pick them up from there. We still spelunk into other mountpoints
and fondle their data without 100% good locking. It may make better
sense to vector the revoke event into the tty code and there do a
destroy_dev/make_dev on the tty's devices, but that's for further
study.
Lots of shuffling of stuff and churn of bits for no good reason[2].

Previously, recursion through the "include" feature was prevented by
marking each ruleset as "running" when applied. This doesn't work for
the case where two DEVFS instances try to apply the same ruleset at

Instead introduce the sysctl vfs.devfs.rule_depth (default == 1) which
limits how many levels of "include" we will traverse.

If a character cannot be converted to DOS code page,
unix2doschr() returned `0'. As a result, unix2dosfn()
was forced to return `0', so we saw a file which was
composed of these characters as `Invalid argument'.
To correct this, if a character can be converted to
Unicode, unix2doschr() now returns `1' which is a magic
number to make unix2dosfn() know that the character
must be converted to `_'.
[2] unix2dosfn()
The above-mentioned solution only works if a file
has both of Unicode name and DOS code page name.
Unicode name would not be recorded if file name
can be settled within 11 bytes (DOS short name)
and if no conversion from Unix charset to DOS code
page has occurred. Thus, FreeBSD can create a file
which has only short name, but there is no guarantee
that the short name contains allways valid characters
because we leave it to people by using mount_msdosfs(8)
to select which conversion is used between DOS code
page and unix charset.
To avoid this, Unicode file name should be recorded
unless a character is an ascii character. This is
the way Windows XP do.

when initializing the skeleton device protections.

so that the pty clone credential is exposed to the MAC Framework.
While currently primarily focussed on MAC policies, this change is also
a prerequisite for changes to allow ptys to be instantiated with the UID
of the process looking up the pty. This requires further changes to the
pty driver -- in particular, to immediately recycle pty nodes on last
close so that the credential-related state can be recreated on next

To check a directory's in-use bitmap bit by bit, we use

The index used to dereference this pointer is calculated

bits of the bit index.
This is an idiomatic way of iterating through a bit map

This commit fixes the bug that we only checked bits
3:0 of each 8 bit chunk, because we only used bits 1:0
of the bit index for the bit# in the current 8 bit value.
This resulted in files not being returned by getdirentries(2).
