close_range(min, max, flags) allows for a range of descriptors to be
closed. The Python folk have indicated that they would much prefer this
interface to closefrom(2), as the case may be that they/someone have special
fds dup'd to higher in the range and they can't necessarily closefrom(min)
because they don't want to hit the upper range, but relocating them to lower
isn't necessarily feasible.
sys_closefrom has been rewritten to use kern_close_range() using ~0U to
indicate closing to the end of the range. This was chosen rather than
requiring callers of kern_close_range() to hold FILEDESC_SLOCK across the
call to kern_close_range for simplicity.
The flags argument of close_range(2) is currently unused, so any flags set
is currently EINVAL. It was added to the interface in Linux so that future
flags could be added for, e.g., "halt on first error" and things of this
nature.
This patch is based on a syscall of the same design that is expected to be
merged into Linux.

realpath(3) is used a lot e.g., by clang and is a major source of getcwd
and fstatat calls. This can be done more efficiently in the kernel.
This works by performing a regular lookup while saving the name and found
parent directory. If the terminal vnode is a directory we can resolve it using
usual means. Otherwise we can use the name saved by lookup and resolve the
parent.
See the review for sample syscall counts.

A new syscall sigfastblock(2) is added which registers a uint32_t
variable as containing the count of blocks for signal delivery. Its
content is read by kernel on each syscall entry and on AST processing,
non-zero count of blocks is interpreted same as the signal mask
blocking all signals.
The biggest downside of the feature that I see is that memory
corruption that affects the registered fast sigblock location, would
cause quite strange application misbehavior. For instance, the process
would be immune to ^C (but killable by SIGKILL).
With consumers (rtld and libthr added), benchmarks do not show a
slow-down of the syscalls in micro-measurements, and macro benchmarks
like buildworld do not demonstrate a difference. Part of the reason is
that buildworld time is dominated by compiler, and clang already links
to libthr. On the other hand, small utilities typically used by shell
scripts have the total number of syscalls cut by half.
The syscall is not exported from the stable libc version namespace on
purpose. It is intended to be used only by our C runtime
implementation internals.

Add an atomic shm rename operation, similar in spirit to a file
rename. Atomically unlink an shm from a source path and link it to a
destination path. If an existing shm is linked at the destination
path, unlink it as part of the same atomic operation. The caller needs
the same permissions as shm_unlink to the shm being renamed, and the
same permissions for the shm at the destination which is being
unlinked, if it exists. If those fail, EACCES is returned, as with the
other shm_* syscalls.
truss support is included; audit support will come later.

As dev_t is now a 64-bit integer, it requires special handling as a
system call argument. 64-bit arguments are split between two 64-bit
integers due to the way arguments are promoted to allow reuse of most
system call implementations. They must be reassembled before use.
Further, 64-bit arguments at an odd offset (counting from zero) are
padded and slid to the next slot on powerpc and mips. Fix the
non-COMPAT11 system call by adding a freebsd32_mknodat() and
appropriately padded declerations.
The COMPAT11 system calls are fully compatible with the 64-bit
implementations so remove the freebsd32_ versions.
Use uint32_t consistently as the type of the old dev_t. This matches

Previously, libc.so would initialize its notion of the break address
using _end, a special symbol emitted by the static linker following
the bss section. Compatibility issues between lld and ld.bfd could
cause the wrong definition of _end (libc.so's definition rather than
that of the executable) to be used, breaking the brk()/sbrk()
interface.
Avoid this problem and future interoperability issues by simply not
relying on _end. Instead, modify the break() system call to return
the kernel's view of the current break address, and have libc
initialize its state using an extra syscall upon the first use of the
interface. As a side effect, this appears to fix brk()/sbrk() usage
in executables run with rtld direct exec, since the kernel and libc.so
no longer maintain separate views of the process' break address.

This change implements NOTE_ABSTIME flag for EVFILT_TIMER, which
specifies that the data field contains absolute time to fire the

To make this useful, data member of the struct kevent must be extended

changes struct kevent almost to Apple struct kevent64, except I did
not changed type of ident and udata, the later would cause serious API
incompatibilities.
The type of ident was kept uintptr_t since EVFILT_AIO returns a
pointer in this field, and e.g. CHERI is sensitive to the type
(discussed with brooks, jhb).
Unlike Apple kevent64, symbol versioning allows us to claim ABI
compatibility and still name the new syscall kevent(2). Compat shims

ABI breakage is mitigated by providing compatibility using versioned
symbols, ingenious use of the existing padding in structures, and
by employing other tricks. Unfortunately, not everything can be
fixed, especially outside the base system. For instance, third-party
APIs which pass struct stat around are broken in backward and
forward incompatible ways.
Kinfo sysctl MIBs ABI is changed in backward-compatible way, but
there is no general mechanism to handle other sysctl MIBS which
return structures where the layout has changed. It was considered
that the breakage is either in the management interfaces, where we
usually allow ABI slip, or is not important.

It was decided that keeping ABI compat in this case is more useful
