correct error condition to CAM when it tries to probe a target that
doesn't exists.
This should make the CAM interface less risky to use.

dereferenced when a process exits due to the vmspace ref-count being
bumped. Change shmexit() and shmexit_myhook() to take a vmspace instead
of a process and call it in vmspace_dofree(). This way if it is missed
in exit1()'s early-resource-free it will still be caught when the zombie is
reaped.
Also fix a potential race in shmexit_myhook() by NULLing out
vmspace->vm_shm prior to calling shm_delete_mapping() and free().

access its controlling terminal.
In essense, history dictates that any process is allowed to open
/dev/tty for RW, irrespective of credential, because by definition
it is it's own controlling terminal.
Before DEVFS we relied on a hacky half-device thing (kern/tty_tty.c)
which did the magic deep down at device level, which at best was
disgusting from an architectural point of view.
My first shot at this was to use the cloning mechanism to simply
give people the right tty when they ask for /dev/tty, that's why
you get this, slightly counter intuitive result:
syv# ls -l /dev/tty `tty`
crw--w---- 1 u1 tty 5, 0 Jan 13 22:14 /dev/tty
crw--w---- 1 u1 tty 5, 0 Jan 13 22:14 /dev/ttyp0
Trouble is, when user u1 su(1)'s to user u2, he cannot open
/dev/ttyp0 anymore because he doesn't have permission to do so.
The above fix allows him to do that.
The interesting side effect is that one was previously only able
to access the controlling tty by indirection:
date > /dev/tty
but not by name:
date > `tty`
This is now possible, and that feels a lot more like DTRT.

MFC candidate: could be.
o Revision 1.38 introduced the -n flag. It conflicted with the
RB_BOOTINFO flag, so was in effect always on. Change the -n flag to
be bit 0x1c instead of 0x1f. This also had the consequence that a mal-formed
/boot.config would render the system unbootable because the user was
unable to enter anything at all on the command line.
o Remove the initialization of opt to be RB_BOOTINFO since we filter that bit
out and do not otherwise use it.

This solves the problem, where in a constellation with two (or more)
drives, an attempt is made to access a device name for that device
using a historic partition letter, like /dev/fd1c. This is supposed
to create a symlink to the master device, but previously, the link was
always created to /dev/fd0, even if the request was for fd1*.
