handlers. This is primarily intended as a way to allow devices that use
multiple interrupts (e.g. MSI) to meaningfully distinguish the various
interrupt handlers.
- Add a new BUS_DESCRIBE_INTR() method to the bus interface to associate
a description with an active interrupt handler setup by BUS_SETUP_INTR.
It has a default method (bus_generic_describe_intr()) which simply passes
the request up to the parent device.
- Add a bus_describe_intr() wrapper around BUS_DESCRIBE_INTR() that supports
printf(9) style formatting using var args.
- Reserve MAXCOMLEN bytes in the intr_handler structure to hold the name of
an interrupt handler and copy the name passed to intr_event_add_handler()
into that buffer instead of just saving the pointer to the name.
- Add a new intr_event_describe_handler() which appends a description string
to an interrupt handler's name.
- Implement support for interrupt descriptions on amd64 and i386 by having
the nexus(4) driver supply a custom bus_describe_intr method that invokes
a new intr_describe() MD routine which in turn looks up the associated
interrupt event and invokes intr_event_describe_handler().

not blocking the signal, signal is placed on the thread sigqueue. If
the selected thread is in kernel executing thr_exit() or sigprocmask()
syscalls, then signal might be not delivered to usermode for arbitrary
amount of time, and for exiting thread it is lost.
Put process-directed signals to the process queue unconditionally,
selecting the thread to deliver the signal only by the thread returning
to usermode, since only then the thread can handle delivery of signal
reliably. For exiting thread or thread that has blocked some signals,
check whether the newly blocked signal is queued for the process, and
try to find a thread to wakeup for delivery, in reschedule_signal(). For
exiting thread, assume that all signals are blocked.
Change cursig() and postsig() to look both into the thread and process
signal queues. When there is a signal that thread returning to usermode
could consume, TDF_NEEDSIGCHK flag is not neccessary set now. Do
unlocked read of p_siglist and p_pendingcnt to check for queued signals.
Note that thread that has a signal unblocked might get spurious wakeup
and EINTR from the interruptible system call now, due to the possibility
of being selected by reschedule_signals(), while other thread returned
to usermode earlier and removed the signal from process queue. This
should not cause compliance issues, since the thread has not blocked a
signal and thus should be ready to receive it anyway.

sockets. This allows for reliable bi-directional datagram communication
over UNIX domain sockets, in contrast to SOCK_DGRAM (M:N, unreliable) or
SOCK_STERAM (bi-directional bytestream). Largely, this reuses existing
UNIX domain socket code. This allows applications requiring record-
oriented semantics to do so reliably via local IPC.
Some implementation notes (also present in XXX comments):
- Currently we lack an sbappend variant able to do datagrams and control
data without doing addresses, so we mark SOCK_SEQPACKET as PR_ADDR.
Adding a new variant will solve this problem.
- UNIX domain sockets on FreeBSD provide back-pressure/flow control
notification for stream sockets by manipulating the send socket
buffer's size during pru_send and pru_rcvd. This trick works less well
for SOCK_SEQPACKET as sosend_generic() uses sb_hiwat not just to
manage blocking, but also to determine maximum datagram size. Fixing
this requires rethinking how back-pressure is done for SOCK_SEQPACKET;
in the mean time, it's possible to get EMSGSIZE when buffers fill,
instead of blocking.

NULL pointer dereference into a privilege escalation attack.
If the sysctl is set to 0 a newly started process will not be able
to map anything in the address range of the first page (0 to PAGE_SIZE).
This is the default. Already running processes are not affected by this.
You can either change the sysctl or the tunable from loader in case
you need to map at a virtual address of 0, for example when running
any of the extinct species of a set of a.out binaries, vm86 emulation, ..
In that case set security.bsd.map_at_zero="1".

- In 8.x and above the run-queue locks are nomore shared even in the
HTT case, so remove the special case.
- The deadlock explained in the removed comment here is still possible
even with different locks, with the contribution of tdq_lock_pair().
An explanation is here:
(hypotesis: a thread needs to migrate on another CPU, thread1 is doing
sched_switch_migrate() and thread2 is the one handling the sched_switch()
request or in other words, thread1 is the thread that needs to migrate
and thread2 is a thread that is going to be preempted, most likely an
idle thread. Also, 'old' is referred to the context (in terms of
run-queue and CPU) thread1 is leaving and 'new' is referred to the
context thread1 is going into. Finally, thread3 is doing tdq_idletd()
or sched_balance() and definitively doing tdq_lock_pair())
* thread1 blocks its td_lock. Now td_lock is 'blocked'
* thread1 drops its old runqueue lock
* thread1 acquires the new runqueue lock
* thread1 adds itself to the new runqueue and sends an IPI_PREEMPT
through tdq_notify() to the new CPU
* thread1 drops the new lock
* thread3, scanning the runqueues, locks the old lock
* thread2 received the IPI_PREEMPT and does thread_lock() with td_lock
pointing to the new runqueue
* thread3 wants to acquire the new runqueue lock, but it can't because
it is held by thread2 so it spins
* thread1 wants to acquire old lock, but as long as it is held by
thread3 it can't
* thread2 going further, at some point wants to switchin in thread1,
but it will wait forever because thread1->td_lock is in blocked state
This deadlock has been manifested mostly on 7.x and reported several time
on mailing lists under the voice 'spinlock held too long'.
