Mainly focus on files that use BSD 3-Clause license.
The Software Package Data Exchange (SPDX) group provides a specification
to make it easier for automated tools to detect and summarize well known
opensource licenses. We are gradually adopting the specification, noting
that the tags are considered only advisory and do not, in any way,
superceed or replace the license texts.
Special thanks to Wind River for providing access to "The Duke of
Highlander" tool: an older (2014) run over FreeBSD tree was useful as a
starting point.
Illumos and Schillix is adopting some of the locale code and our style(9)
sometimes matches the Solaris cstyle, so the changes are also useful as a
way to reduce diffs.
No functional change.

Renumber cluase 4 to 3, per what everybody else did when BSD granted
them permission to remove clause 3. My insistance on keeping the same
numbering for legal reasons is too pedantic, so give up on that point.

load of _l suffixed versions of various standard library functions that use
the global locale, making them take an explicit locale parameter. Also
adds support for per-thread locales. This work was funded by the FreeBSD
Foundation.
Please test any code you have that uses the C standard locale functions!

version if the application defines them.

currently cached data. It allows a number of nice things, like: removing
fallback code from single locale loading, remove memory leak when LC_CTYPE
data loaded again and again, efficient cache use, not only for
setlocale(locale1); setlocale(locale1), but for setlocale(locale1);
setlocale("C"); setlocale(locale1) too (i.e. data file loaded only once).
2) Move incomplete check for / in locale name from env section to
loadlocale(), add check for "." and ".." too.
It allows to check any argument, not env only.
3) Redesing LOAD_CATEGORY macro to eliminate code duplication.
4) Try harder in fallback code: if old locale can't be restored,
load "C" locale
5) White space formatting, long lines, etc.
The below text is quoted from the latest POSIX draft:
: The values of locale categories shall be determined by a precedence
: order; the first condition met below determines the value:
:
: 1. If the LC_ALL environment variable is defined and is not null,
: the value of LC_ALL shall be used.
: 2. If the LC_* environment variable (LC_COLLATE, LC_CTYPE, LC_MESSAGES,
: LC_MONETARY, LC_NUMERIC, LC_TIME) is defined and is not null, the
: value of the environment variable shall be used to initialize the
: category that corresponds to the environment variable.
: 3. If the LANG environment variable is defined and is not null, the
: value of the LANG environment variable shall be used.
: 4. If the LANG environment variable is not set or is set to the empty
: string, the implementation-defined default locale shall be used.
The conditions 1 and 2 were interchanged, i.e., LC_* were looked first,
then LC_ALL, then LANG (note that LC_ALL and LANG were essentially the
same, providing the default, with LC_ALL taking precedence over LANG).
Now, LC_ALL and LANG serve the different purposes. LC_ALL overrides
any LC_*, and LANG provides the default fallback.
Testcase:
/usr/bin/env LC_ALL=C LC_TIME=de_DE.ISO_8859-1 /bin/date
Should return date in the "C" locale format.

be used to point to a bad locale file. This is only believed to be a
minor security risk - the only risk is if some program uses the result
of a localized string as a format specifier in a vulnerable function
like sprintf(). No such code is believed to exist in the FreeBSD base
system, although it is possible that badly written third party code
would do that.

This will make a number of things easier in the future, as well as (finally!)
avoiding the Id-smashing problem which has plagued developers for so long.
Boy, I'm glad we're not using sup anymore. This update would have been
insane otherwise.
Since locale reading code not resistent against stack overflowing or
similar intruder attacks, don't allow PATH_LOCALE env variable action
for s-bit programs (non-standard locale path setting)
strdup() it to prevent unsetenv() or setenv() effects. Check its length to
not allow user to overflow internal locale buffer. Move PATH_LOCALE
handling code into one place.
POSIX: make better stub for LC_MONETARY & LC_NUMERIC, now it check
locale directory existance instead of refusing all non-C non-POSIX
locales. POSIX treats empty locale env variable as unset variable
while our old code treats it as "C" locale, fix it. Implement previous locale
restoring, if locale setting fails. Old code assumes success if some
of LC_ALL subset is successed even other fails, POSIX treats it as
failure with previous locale restoring, fix it.
Remove unneccessary length checking in currentlocale()
