In certain situations lseek(2) will return successful although if no seek
was performed. This can happen when operating on devices that don't support
seeking (older tape drives) or when operating on changeable media devices
(such as DVD or Blu-ray devices) without a medium inserted.
Document this within the man page and update the POSIX compliance while here.

When dummynet initializes it prints a debug message with the current VNET
pointer unnecessarily revealing kernel memory layout. This appears to be left

- Part of BAT payload location was lost due to invalid
BAT entry encoding type (32 bits instead of 64 bits)
- The sequence of PB/SB entries in BAT was broken due to
off-by-one index check. It worked for smaller than
4Gb because there were no SB entries in BAT.

The statement "nd->nd_bpos = mcp;" was in both the if and else. Correct,
but potentially confusing. This patch fixes this.
There should be no semantics change caused by this commit.

Prior to this change a `SF_IMMUTABLE` chflagsat(2)'ed file (`path`) was left
behind, which sabotaged kyua(1) from being able to clean up the work directory,
This resulted in unnecessary work for folks having to clean up the work
directory on non-disposable systems, which defaults to `/tmp`. Use `UF_OFFLINE`
instead of `SF_IMMUTABLE`, in part because setting `SF_IMMUTABLE` isn't relevant
to the test and `SF_IMMUTABLE` cannot be cleared at all securelevels, as pointed
out by @asomers.
Additional work is required to catch cases like this upfront in the future to
avoid tester headache. See PR # 247765 for more details/followup.

r363079 introduced the possibility of loading the SCTP stack as a module in
addition to compiling it into the kernel. As part of this, the registration
of the system calls was removed and put into the loading of the module.
Therefore, the system calls are not registered anymore when compiling the
SCTP into the kernel. This patch addresses that.

Old subscription model allowed only single customer.
Switch inet6 to the new subscription api and eliminate the old model.
Differential Revision: https://reviews.freebsd.org/D25615
Subscriptions are planned to be used by modules such as route lookup engines.
In that case that's the module task to properly unsibscribe before detach.
However, the in-kernel customer - inet6 wants to track default route changes.
To avoid having inet6 store per-fib subscriptions, handle automatic
destruction internally.

It is documented as a raw hardware-based clock not subject to NTP or
incremental adjustments. With this "not as precise as CLOCK_MONOTONIC"
description in mind, map it to our CLOCK_MONOTNIC_FAST (the same
mapping as for the linux CLOCK_MONOTONIC_COARSE).
This is needed for the webcomponent of steam (chromium) and some
other steam component or game.
The linux-steam-utils port contains a LD_PRELOAD based fix for this.
There this is mapped to CLOCK_MONOTONIC.
As an untrained ear/eye (= the majority of people) is normaly not
noticing a difference of jitter in the 10-20 ms range, specially
if you don't pay attention like for example in a browser session
while watching a video stream, the mapping to CLOCK_MONOTONIC_FAST
seems more appropriate than to CLOCK_MONOTONIC.
Linux processes these clocks in reverse order and some DT relies
on this fact. For example, the frequency setting for a given PLL
is the last in the list, preceded by the frequency setting of its
following divider or so...

o filemon/filemon_dev.c: use O_CLOEXEC rather than extra syscall
o meta.c: target flagged .META is out-of-date if meta file missing
o cond.c: fix for compare_expression when doEval=0
o unit-tests/Makefile: rework
o filemon/filemon_dev.c: ensure filemon fd is closed on exec.
We don't expect to fail acquiring the reference unless running into a corner
case. Just in case ensure forward progress by taking the lock.

The reason for this is to work around an idiosyncrasy of glibc
getttynam(3) implementation: it checks whether st_dev returned for
fd 0 is the same as st_dev returned for the target of /proc/self/fd/0
symlink, and with linux chroots having their own devfs instance,
the check will fail if you chrooted into it.
