34168b28e9 Replace basename(3) by a thread-safe implementation.
Now that the changes to the dirname(3) function had some time to settle,
let's go ahead and use the same approach for replacing basename(3) by a
simple implementation that modifies the input string, thereby making it
thread-safe and guaranteed to succeed.

Unlike dirname(3), this function already had a thread-safe variant
basename_r(3). This function had its own set of problems, like having an
upper bound on the pathname length. Keep this function around for
compatibility, but remove most references from the man page. Make the
man page more similar to that of dirname(3).

As the basename_r(3) function is only provided by FreeBSD (and Bionic),
depending on its use is even more implementation defined than assuming
that basename(3) is thread-safe.

1a466ddc79 Remove setkey(), encrypt(), des_setkey() and des_cipher().
The setkey() and encrypt() functions are part of XSI, not the POSIX base
definitions. There is no strict requirement for us to provide these,
especially if we're only going to keep these around as undocumented
stubs. The same holds for des_setkey() and des_cipher().

Instead of providing functions that only generate warnings when linking,
simply disallow linking against them. The impact of this is relatively
low. It only causes two leaf ports to break. I'll see what I can do to
help out to get those fixed.

e2f6816100 Reimplement dirname(3) to be thread-safe.
Now that we've updated the prototypes of the basename(3) and dirname(3)
functions to conform to POSIX, let's go ahead and reimplement dirname(3)
in such a way that it's thread-safe, but also guaranteed to succeed. C
libraries like glibc, musl and the one that's part of Solaris already
follow such an approach.

Move the existing implementation to another source file,
freebsd11_dirname.c to keep existing users of the API that pass in a
constant string happy, using symbol versioning.

Put a new version of the function in dirname.c, obtained from CloudABI's
C library. This version scans through the pathname string from left to
right, normalizing it, while discarding the last pathname component.

714ac00292 Implement an NSS backend for netgroups and add getnetgrent_r(3).
This support appears to have been documented in nsswitch.conf(5) for some
time. The implementation adds two NSS netgroup providers to libc. The
default, compat, provides the behaviour documented in netgroup(5), so this
change does not make any user-visible behaviour changes. A files provider
is also implemented.

innetgr(3) is implemented as an optional NSS method so that providers such
as NIS which are able to implement efficient reverse lookup can do so.
A fallback implementation is used otherwise. getnetgrent_r(3) is added for
convenience and to provide compatibility with glibc and Solaris.

With a small patch to net/nss_ldap, it's possible to specify an ldap
netgroup provider, allowing one to query nisNetgroupTriple entries.

2a339d9e3d Add implementation of robust mutexes, hopefully close enough to the
intention of the POSIX IEEE Std 1003.1TM-2008/Cor 1-2013.

A robust mutex is guaranteed to be cleared by the system upon either
thread or process owner termination while the mutex is held.  The next
mutex locker is then notified about inconsistent mutex state and can
execute (or abandon) corrective actions.

The patch mostly consists of small changes here and there, adding
neccessary checks for the inconsistent and abandoned conditions into
existing paths.  Additionally, the thread exit handler was extended to
iterate over the userspace-maintained list of owned robust mutexes,
unlocking and marking as terminated each of them.

The list of owned robust mutexes cannot be maintained atomically
synchronous with the mutex lock state (it is possible in kernel, but
is too expensive).  Instead, for the duration of lock or unlock
operation, the current mutex is remembered in a special slot that is
also checked by the kernel at thread termination.

Kernel must be aware about the per-thread location of the heads of
robust mutex lists and the current active mutex slot.  When a thread
touches a robust mutex for the first time, a new umtx op syscall is
issued which informs about location of lists heads.

The umtx sleep queues for PP and PI mutexes are split between
non-robust and robust.

Somewhat unrelated changes in the patch:
1. Style.
2. The fix for proper tdfind() call use in umtxq_sleep_pi() for shared
   pi mutexes.
3. Removal of the userspace struct pthread_mutex m_owner field.
4. The sysctl kern.ipc.umtx_vnode_persistent is added, which controls
   the lifetime of the shared mutex associated with a vnode' page.

8495e8b1e9 Fix known issues which blow up the process after dlopen("libthr.so")
(or loading a dso linked to libthr.so into process which was not
linked against threading library).

- Remove libthr interposers of the libc functions, including
  __error(). Instead, functions calls are indirected through the
  interposing table, similar to how pthread stubs in libc are already
  done.  Libc by default points either to syscall trampolines or to
  existing libc implementations.  On libthr load, libthr rewrites the
  pointers to the cancellable implementations already in libthr.  The
  interposition table is separate from pthreads stubs indirection
  table to not pull pthreads stubs into static binaries.

- Postpone the malloc(3) internal mutexes initialization until libthr
  is loaded.  This avoids recursion between calloc(3) and static
  pthread_mutex_t initialization.

- Reinstall signal handlers with wrapper on libthr load.  The
  _rtld_is_dlopened(3) is used to avoid useless calls to sigaction(2)
  when libthr is statically referenced from the main binary.

In the process, fix openat(2), swapcontext(2) and setcontext(2)
interposing.  The libc symbols were exported at different versions
than libthr interposers.  Export both libc and libthr versions from
libc now, with default set to the higher version from libthr.

Remove unused and disconnected swapcontext(3) userspace implementation
from libc/gen.

55a1911ef2 The getcontext() from the __fillcontextx() call in the
check_deferred_signal() returns twice, since handle_signal() emulates
the return from the normal signal handler by sigreturn(2)ing the
passed context.  Second return is performed on the destroyed stack
frame, because __fillcontextx() has already returned.  This causes
undefined and bad behaviour, usually the victim thread gets SIGSEGV.

Avoid nested frame and the need to return from it by doing direct call
to getcontext() in the check_deferred_signal() and using a new private
libc helper __fillcontextx2() to complement the context with the
extended CPU state if the deferred signal is still present.

The __fillcontextx() is now unused, but is kept to allow older
libthr.so to be used with the new libc.

Mark __fillcontextx() as returning twice [1].

It makes hardly any sense to expose a symbol which should only be

choice here. There are many autoconf scripts out there that try to

uname(3) is present. These scripts fail to detect uname(3) now.

The ttyslot() function was originally part for SUSv1, marked LEGACY in

utmp(5), because it was used to determine the offset of the record for
the controlling TTY. It makes little sense to keep it here, because the

a627ac61ab Implement <utmpx.h>.
The utmpx interface is the standardized interface of the user accounting
database. The standard only defines a subset of the functions that were
present in System V-like systems.

I'd like to highlight some of the traits my implementation has:

- The standard allows the on-disk format to be different than the
  in-memory representation (struct utmpx). Most operating systems don't
  do this, but we do. This allows us to keep our ABI more stable, while
  giving us the opportunity to modify the on-disk format. It also allows
  us to use a common file format across different architectures (i.e.
  byte ordering).

- Our implementation of pututxline() also updates wtmp and lastlog (now
  called utx.log and utx.lastlogin). This means the databases are more
  likely to be in sync.

- Care must be taken that our implementation discard any fields that are
  not applicable. For example, our DEAD_PROCESS records do not hold a
  TTY name. Just a time stamp, a record identifier and a process
  identifier. It also guarantees that strings (ut_host, ut_line and
  ut_user) are null terminated. ut_id is obviously not null terminated,
  because it's not a string.

- The API and its behaviour should be conformant to POSIX, but there may
  be things that slightly deviate from the standard. This implementation
  uses separate file descriptors when writing to the log files. It also
  doesn't use getutxid() to search for a field to overwrite. It uses an
  allocation strategy similar to getutxid(), but prevents DEAD_PROCESS
  records from accumulating.

Make sure libulog doesn't overwrite the manpages shipped with our C
library. Also keep the symbol list in Symbol.map sorted.

I'll bump __FreeBSD_version later this evening. I first want to convert
everything to <utmpx.h> and get rid of <utmp.h>.

and multiple processes can operate it concurrently.
User can either use mmap(MAP_SHARED) + sem_init(pshared=1) or use sem_open()
to initialize a shared semaphore.
Named semaphore uses file system and is located in /tmp directory, and its
file name is prefixed with 'SEMD', so now it is chroot or jail friendly.
In simplist cases, both for named and un-named semaphore, userland code
does not have to enter kernel to reduce/increase semaphore's count.
The semaphore is designed to be crash-safe, it means even if an application
is crashed in the middle of operating semaphore, the semaphore state is
still safely recovered by later use, there is no waiter counter maintained
by userland code.
The main semaphore code is in libc and libthr only has some necessary stubs,
this makes it possible that a non-threaded application can use semaphore
without linking to thread library.
Old semaphore implementation is kept libc to maintain binary compatibility.
The kernel ksem API is no longer used in the new implemenation.

TTY a controlling terminal of a session. Even though tcsetsid(3) is also
non-standard, I think it's a lot better to use in our own source code,
mainly because it's similar to tcsetpgrp(), tcgetpgrp() and tcgetsid().

I stole the idea from QNX. They do it the other way around; their
TIOCSCTTY is just a wrapper around tcsetsid(). tcsetsid() then calls
into an IPC framework.

1c52c37eae Properly update the shm_open/shm_unlink symbol versioning metadata after
these functions were moved into the kernel:
- Move the version entries from gen/ to sys/.  Since the ABI of the actual
  routines did not change, I'm still exporting them as FBSD 1.0 on purpose.
- Add FBSD-private versions for the _ and __sys_ variants.

26d4f5e969 Add two new routines: fdevname() and fdevname_r().
A more elegant way of obtaining a name of a character device by its file
descriptor on FreeBSD, is to use the FIODGNAME ioctl. Because a valid
file descriptor implies a file descriptor is visible in /dev, it will
always resolve a valid device name.

I'm adding a more friendly wrapper for this ioctl, called fdevname(). It
is a lot easier to use than devname() and also has better error
handling. When a device name cannot be resolved, it will just return
NULL instead of a generated device name that makes no sense.

cb5c4b10ba Add two rtld exported symbols, _rtld_atfork_pre and _rtld_atfork_post.
Threading library calls _pre before the fork, allowing the rtld to
lock itself to ensure that other threads of the process are out of
dynamic linker. _post releases the locks.

This allows the rtld to have consistent state in the child. Although
child may legitimately call only async-safe functions, the call may
need plt relocation resolution, and this requires working rtld.
