Summary:
Pipes in CloudABI are unidirectional. The reason for this is that
CloudABI attempts to provide a uniform runtime environment across
different flavours of UNIX.
Instead of implementing a custom pipe that is unidirectional, we can
simply reuse Capsicum permission bits to support this. This is nice,
because CloudABI already attempts to restrict permission bits to
correspond with the operations that apply to a certain file descriptor.
Replace kern_pipe() and kern_pipe2() by a single kern_pipe() that takes
a pair of filecaps. These filecaps are passed to the newly introduced
falloc_caps() function that creates the descriptors with rights in
place.
Test Plan:
CloudABI pipes seem to be created with proper rights in place:

These changes prevent sysctl(8) from returning proper output,

there is an environment variable which shall initialize the SYSCTL
during early boot. This works for all SYSCTL types both statically and
dynamically created ones, except for the SYSCTL NODE type and SYSCTLs
which belong to VNETs. A new flag, CTLFLAG_NOFETCH, has been added to
be used in the case a tunable sysctl has a custom initialisation
function allowing the sysctl to still be marked as a tunable. The
kernel SYSCTL API is mostly the same, with a few exceptions for some
special operations like iterating childrens of a static/extern SYSCTL
node. This operation should probably be made into a factored out
common macro, hence some device drivers use this. The reason for
changing the SYSCTL API was the need for a SYSCTL parent OID pointer
and not only the SYSCTL parent OID list pointer in order to quickly
generate the sysctl path. The motivation behind this patch is to avoid
parameter loading cludges inside the OFED driver subsystem. Instead of
adding special code to the OFED driver subsystem to post-load tunables
into dynamically created sysctls, we generalize this in the kernel.
Other changes:
- Corrected a possibly incorrect sysctl name from "hw.cbb.intr_mask"
to "hw.pcic.intr_mask".
- Removed redundant TUNABLE statements throughout the kernel.
- Some minor code rewrites in connection to removing not needed
TUNABLE statements.
- Added a missing SYSCTL_DECL().
- Wrapped two very long lines.
- Avoid malloc()/free() inside sysctl string handling, in case it is
called to initialize a sysctl from a tunable, hence malloc()/free() is
not ready when sysctls from the sysctl dataset are registered.
- Bumped FreeBSD version to indicate SYSCTL API change.

The pipe2() function is similar to pipe() but allows setting FD_CLOEXEC and
O_NONBLOCK (on both sides) as part of the function.
If p points to two writable ints, pipe2(p, 0) is equivalent to pipe(p).
If the pointer is not valid, behaviour differs: pipe2() writes into the
array from the kernel like socketpair() does, while pipe() writes into the
array from an architecture-specific assembler wrapper.

I found 8.3 is a history BSD version using socket to implement FIFO
pipe, it uses per-file seqcount to compare with writer generation
stored in per-pipe object. The concept is after all writers are gone,
the pipe enters next generation, all old readers have not closed the
pipe should get the indication that the pipe is disconnected, result
is they should get EPIPE, SIGPIPE or get POLLHUP in poll().
But newcomer should not know that previous writters were gone, it
should treat it as a fresh session.
I am trying to bring back FIFO pipe to history behavior. It is still
unclear that if single EOF flag can represent SBS_CANTSENDMORE and
SBS_CANTRCVMORE which socket-based version is using, but I have run
the poll regression test in tool directory, output is same as the one
on 8.3-STABLE now.
I think the output "not ok 18 FIFO state 6b: poll result 0 expected 1.
expected POLLHUP; got 0" might be bogus, because newcomer should not
know that old writers were gone. I got the same behavior on Linux.
Our implementation always return POLLIN for disconnected pipe even it
should return POLLHUP, but I think it is not wise to remove POLLIN for
compatible reason, this is our history behavior.

state, when a FIFO peer reader closes the pipe, it wants to notify the writer,
it checks PIPE_WANTW, if not set, it skips calling wakeup(), so blocked writer

syscall with EPIPE error code and may get SIGPIPE signal. Setting the
PIPE_WANTW fixed problem, or you can turn off direct write, it should fix the
problem too. This bug is found by PR/170203.
Another bug in FIFO pipe code is when peer closes the pipe, another end which
is being blocked in select() or poll() is not notified, it missed to call
pipeselwakeup().
Third problem is found in poll regression test, the existing code can not
pass 6b,6c,6d tests, but FreeBSD-4 works. This commit does not fix the

The reverse direction of a pipe is lazily allocated on the first write in
that direction (because pipes are usually used in one direction only). A
special case is needed to ensure the pipe appears writable before the first
write because there are 0 bytes of pending data in 0 bytes of buffer space
at that point, leaving 0 bytes of data that can be written with the normal
code.
Note that the first write returns [ENOMEM] if kern.ipc.maxpipekva is
exceeded and does not block or return [EAGAIN], so selecting true for write
is correct even in that case.

Optimize for the case, by lazily allocating the pipe inode number at the
fstat(2) time. If alloc_unr(9) returns failure, do not fail fstat(2), since
uses of inode numbers are even rare then fstat(2), but provide zero inode
forever. Note that alloc_unr() failure is unlikely due to total number
of pipes in the system limited by the number of file descriptors.

If a selinfo object is recorded (via selrecord()) and then it is
quickly destroyed, with the waiters missing the opportunity to awake,
at the next iteration they will find the selinfo object destroyed,
causing a PF#.
That happens because the selinfo interface has no way to drain the
waiters before to destroy the registered selinfo object. Also this
race is quite rare to get in practice, because it would require a
selrecord(), a poll request by another thread and a quick destruction
of the selrecord()'ed selinfo object.
Fix this by adding the seldrain() routine which should be called
before to destroy the selinfo objects (in order to avoid such case),
and fix the present cases where it might have already been called.
Sometimes, the context is safe enough to prevent this type of race,
like it happens in device drivers which installs selinfo objects on
poll callbacks. There, the destruction of the selinfo object happens
at driver detach time, when all the filedescriptors should be already
closed, thus there cannot be a race.
For this case, mfi(4) device driver can be set as an example, as it
implements a full correct logic for preventing this from happening.

A nice thing about POSIX 2008 is that it finally standardizes a way to

namely using struct timespec, which we already have for a very long

This commit adds compatibility macros, so existing code should still
build properly. Also change all source code in the kernel to work
without any of the compatibility macros. This makes it all a less

relatively small number (~ 44000) of buffers set in kern.nbuf would result
in integer overflows resulting either in hangs or bogus values of
hidirtybuffers and lodirtybuffers. Now one has to overflow a long to see
such problems. There was a check for a nbuf setting that would cause
overflows in the auto-tuning of nbuf. I've changed it to always check and
cap nbuf but warn if a user-supplied tunable would cause overflow.
Note that this changes the ABI of several sysctls that are used by things
