in practice, the error (currently) makes no difference because the computation
performed by KVADDR() hides the error. This revision fixes the error.

Now that the pseudo-interface cloner has an internal list of instances,

the ifp, which means there is no valid reason to keep it. While there,

letting make see an empty definition (which was the problem with the current

1. Save and restore the control part of the MXCSR in addition to the
i387 control word to ensure that the two are consistent.
Note that standards don't require longjmp to restore either control
word, and none of Linux, MacOS X 10.3 and earlier, NetBSD, OpenBSD,
or Solaris do it. However, it is historical FreeBSD behavior, and
bde points out that it is needed to make longjmping out of a signal
handler work properly, given the way FreeBSD clobbers the FPU state
on signal handler entry.
2. Don't clobber the FPU exception flags in longjmp. C99 requires them
to remain unchanged.

semaphores. Specifically, semaphores are now represented as new file
descriptor type that is set to close on exec. This removes the need for
all of the manual process reference counting (and fork, exec, and exit
event handlers) as the normal file descriptor operations handle all of
that for us nicely. It is also suggested as one possible implementation
in the spec and at least one other OS (OS X) uses this approach.
Some bugs that were fixed as a result include:
- References to a named semaphore whose name is removed still work after
the sem_unlink() operation. Prior to this patch, if a semaphore's name
was removed, valid handles from sem_open() would get EINVAL errors from
sem_getvalue(), sem_post(), etc. This fixes that.
- Unnamed semaphores created with sem_init() were not cleaned up when a
process exited or exec'd. They were only cleaned up if the process
did an explicit sem_destroy(). This could result in a leak of semaphore
objects that could never be cleaned up.
- On the other hand, if another process guessed the id (kernel pointer to
'struct ksem' of an unnamed semaphore (created via sem_init)) and had
write access to the semaphore based on UID/GID checks, then that other
process could manipulate the semaphore via sem_destroy(), sem_post(),
sem_wait(), etc.
- As part of the permission check (UID/GID), the umask of the proces
creating the semaphore was not honored. Thus if your umask denied group
read/write access but the explicit mode in the sem_init() call allowed
it, the semaphore would be readable/writable by other users in the
same group, for example. This includes access via the previous bug.
- If the module refused to unload because there were active semaphores,
then it might have deregistered one or more of the semaphore system
calls before it noticed that there was a problem. I'm not sure if
this actually happened as the order that modules are discovered by the
kernel linker depends on how the actual .ko file is linked. One can
make the order deterministic by using a single module with a mod_event
handler that explicitly registers syscalls (and deregisters during
unload after any checks). This also fixes a race where even if the
sem_module unloaded first it would have destroyed locks that the
syscalls might be trying to access if they are still executing when
they are unloaded.
XXX: By the way, deregistering system calls doesn't do any blocking
to drain any threads from the calls.
- Some minor fixes to errno values on error. For example, sem_init()
isn't documented to return ENFILE or EMFILE if we run out of semaphores
the way that sem_open() can. Instead, it should return ENOSPC in that
case.
Other changes:
- Kernel semaphores now use a hash table to manage the namespace of
named semaphores nearly in a similar fashion to the POSIX shared memory
object file descriptors. Kernel semaphores can now also have names
longer than 14 chars (up to MAXPATHLEN) and can include subdirectories
in their pathname.
- The UID/GID permission checks for access to a named semaphore are now
done via vaccess() rather than a home-rolled set of checks.
- Now that kernel semaphores have an associated file object, the various
MAC checks for POSIX semaphores accept both a file credential and an
active credential. There is also a new posixsem_check_stat() since it
is possible to fstat() a semaphore file descriptor.
- A small set of regression tests (using the ksem API directly) is present
in src/tools/regression/posixsem.

- Add accessor functions ifnet_byindex(), ifaddr_byindex(),
ifdev_byindex() to replace existing accessor macros. These functions
now acquire the ifnet lock before derefencing the table.
- Add IFNET_WLOCK_ASSERT().
- Add static accessor functions ifnet_setbyindex(), ifdev_setbyindex(),
which set values in the table either asserting of acquiring the ifnet
lock.
- Use accessor functions throughout if.c to modify and read
ifindex_table.
- Rework ifnet attach/detach to lock around ifindex_table modification.
Note that these changes simply close races around use of ifindex_table,
and make no attempt to solve the probem of disappearing ifnets. Further
refinement of this work, including with respect to ifindex_table
resizing, is still required.
In a future change, the ifnet lock should be converted from a mutex to an
rwlock in order to reduce contention.

- Each log entry contains a text description in the "description" field of
the entry. The existing decode logic always ended up duplicating
information that was already in the description string. This made the
logs overly verbose. Now we just print out the description string.

- When fetching events from the controller, honor the event class and
locale settings (via hw.mfi tunables). This also allows the firmware to
skip over unwanted log entries resulting in fewer requests to the
controller if there many unwanted log entries since the last clean
shutdown.
- Don't drop the driver mutex while decoding an event.

hitting the end of the event log) then emit a warning and bail on
