gets signals operating based on a TailQ, and is good enough to run X11,
GNOME, and do job control. There are some intricate parts which could be
more refined to match the sigset_t versions, but those require further
evaluation of directions in which our signal system can expand and contract
to fit our needs.
After this has been in the tree for a while, I will make in kernel API
changes, most notably to trapsignal(9) and sendsig(9), to use ksiginfo
more robustly, such that we can actually pass information with our
(queued) signals to the userland. That will also result in using a
struct ksiginfo pointer, rather than a signal number, in a lot of
kern_sig.c, to refer to an individual pending signal queue member, but
right now there is no defined behaviour for such.
CODAFS is unfinished in this regard because the logic is unclear in
some places.

accept an 'active_cred' argument reflecting the credential of the thread
initiating the ioctl operation.
- Change fo_ioctl() to accept active_cred; change consumers of the
fo_ioctl() interface to generally pass active_cred from td->td_ucred.
- In fifofs, initialize filetmp.f_cred to ap->a_cred so that the
invocations of soo_ioctl() are provided access to the calling f_cred.
Pass ap->a_td->td_ucred as the active_cred, but note that this is
required because we don't yet distinguish file_cred and active_cred
in invoking VOP's.
- Update kqueue_ioctl() for its new argument.
- Update pipe_ioctl() for its new argument, pass active_cred rather
than td_ucred to MAC for authorization.
- Update soo_ioctl() for its new argument.
- Update vn_ioctl() for its new argument, use active_cred rather than
td->td_ucred to authorize VOP_IOCTL() and the associated VOP_GETATTR().

fo_read() and fo_write(): explicitly use the cred argument to fo_poll()
as "active_cred" using the passed file descriptor's f_cred reference
to provide access to the file credential. Add an active_cred
argument to fo_stat() so that implementers have access to the active
credential as well as the file credential. Generally modify callers
of fo_stat() to pass in td->td_ucred rather than fp->f_cred, which
was redundantly provided via the fp argument. This set of modifications
also permits threads to perform these operations on behalf of another
thread without modifying their credential.
Trickle this change down into fo_stat/poll() implementations:
- badfo_poll(), badfo_stat(): modify/add arguments.
- kqueue_poll(), kqueue_stat(): modify arguments.
- pipe_poll(), pipe_stat(): modify/add arguments, pass active_cred to
MAC checks rather than td->td_ucred.
- soo_poll(), soo_stat(): modify/add arguments, pass fp->f_cred rather
than cred to pru_sopoll() to maintain current semantics.
- sopoll(): moidfy arguments.
- vn_poll(), vn_statfile(): modify/add arguments, pass new arguments
to vn_stat(). Pass active_cred to MAC and fp->f_cred to VOP_POLL()
to maintian current semantics.
- vn_close(): rename cred to file_cred to reflect reality while I'm here.
- vn_stat(): Add active_cred and file_cred arguments to vn_stat()
and consumers so that this distinction is maintained at the VFS
as well as 'struct file' layer. Pass active_cred instead of
td->td_ucred to MAC and to VOP_GETATTR() to maintain current semantics.
- fifofs: modify the creation of a "filetemp" so that the file
credential is properly initialized and can be used in the socket
code if desired. Pass ap->a_td->td_ucred as the active
credential to soo_poll(). If we teach the vnop interface about
the distinction between file and active credentials, we would use
the active credential here.
Note that current inconsistent passing of active_cred vs. file_cred to
VOP's is maintained. It's not clear why GETATTR would be authorized
using active_cred while POLL would be authorized using file_cred at
the file system level.

- v_vflag is protected by the vnode lock and is used when synchronization
with VOP calls is needed.
- v_iflag is protected by interlock and is used for dealing with vnode
management issues. These flags include X/O LOCK, FREE, DOOMED, etc.
- All accesses to v_iflag and v_vflag have either been locked or marked with
mp_fixme's.
- Many ASSERT_VOP_LOCKED calls have been added where the locking was not
clear.
- Many functions in vfs_subr.c were restructured to provide for stronger
locking.

Invoke appropriate MAC entry points for a number of VFS-related
operations in the Linux ABI module. In particular, handle uselib

as well as handle statfs(), and linux readdir()-like calls.

first commit that implemented msgrcv() (revision 1.4) and hasn't been
changed since. The native implementation was complete at that time,
so there doesn't seem to be a reason for the hardwiring from a

they aren't in the usual path of execution for syscalls and traps.
The main complication for this is that we have to set flags to control
ast() everywhere that changes the signal mask.
Avoid locking in userret() in most of the remaining cases.

general cleanup of the API. The entire API now consists of two functions
similar to the pre-KSE API. The suser() function takes a thread pointer
as its only argument. The td_ucred member of this thread must be valid
so the only valid thread pointers are curthread and a few kernel threads
such as thread0. The suser_cred() function takes a pointer to a struct
ucred as its first argument and an integer flag as its second argument.
The flag is currently only used for the PRISON_ROOT flag.

New locks are:
- pgrpsess_lock which locks the whole pgrps and sessions,
- pg_mtx which protects the pgrp members, and
- s_mtx which protects the session members.
Please refer to sys/proc.h for the coverage of these locks.
Changes on the pgrp/session interface:
- pgfind() needs the pgrpsess_lock held.
- The caller of enterpgrp() is responsible to allocate a new pgrp and
session.
- Call enterthispgrp() in order to enter an existing pgrp.
- pgsignal() requires a pgrp lock held.

interfaces we encounter. In Linux, all addresses are returned for
which gifconf handlers are installed. This boils down to AF_DECnet
and AF_INET. We care mostly about AF_INET for now. Adding additional
families is simple enough.
Returning the addresses is important for RPC clients to function
properly. Andrew found in some reference code that the logic that
handles the retransmission looks for an interface that's up and has
an AF_INET address. This obviously failed as we didn't return any
addresses at all.
Note also that with this change we don't return interfaces that don't
have AF_INET addresses, whereas before we returned any interface
present in the system. This is in line with what Linux does (modulo
interfaces with only AF_DECnet addresses of course :-)
