Now that we got rid of the minor-to-unit conversion and the constraints
on device minor numbers, we can convert the functions that operate on
minor and unit numbers to simple macro's. The unit2minor() and
minor2unit() macro's are now no-ops.
The ZFS code als defined a macro named `minor'. Change the ZFS code to
use umajor() and uminor() here, as it is the correct approach to do
this. Also add $FreeBSD$ to keep SVN happy.

Except for the case where we use the cloner library (clone_create() and
friends), there is no reason to enforce a unique device minor number
policy. There are various drivers in the source tree that allocate unr
pools and such to provide minor numbers, without using them themselves.
Because we still need to support unique device minor numbers for the
cloner library, introduce a new flag called D_NEEDMINOR. All cdevsw's
that are used in combination with the cloner library should be marked
with this flag to make the cloning work.
This means drivers can now freely use si_drv0 to store their own flags
and state, making it effectively the same as si_drv1 and si_drv2. We
still keep the minor() and dev2unit() routines around to make drivers
happy.
The NTFS code also used the minor number in its hash table. We should
not do this anymore. If the si_drv0 field would be changed, it would no
longer end up in the same list.

The Giant lock is acquired in two places in tty_tty.c. In both places,
it is unneeded.
There is no reason to specify D_NEEDGIANT on this device node. The
device node has only been designed to return ENXIO when opened. It
doesn't make any sense to lock/unlock Giant, just to return this error.
D_TTY is also unneeded. The unimplemented functions don't need to be
patched by devfs.
We don't need to lock Giant when we want to lookup the proper TTY vnode.
s_ttyvp is already protected by proctree_lock (see devfs_vnops.c).

Even though we got rid of device major numbers some time ago, device
drivers still need to provide unique device minor numbers to make_dev().
These numbers are only used inside the kernel. They are not related to
device major and minor numbers which are visible in devfs. These are
actually based on the inode number of the device.
It would eventually be nice to remove minor numbers entirely, but we
don't want to be too agressive here.
Because the 8-15 bits of the device number field (si_drv0) are still
reserved for the major number, there is no 1:1 mapping of the device
minor and unit numbers. Because this is now unused, remove the
restrictions on these numbers.
The MAXMAJOR definition was actually used for two purposes. It was used
to convert both the userspace and kernelspace device numbers to their
major/minor pair, which is why it is now named UMINORMASK.
minor2unit() and unit2minor() have now become useless. Both minor() and
dev2unit() now serve the same purpose. We should eventually remove some
of them, at least turning them into macro's. If devfs would become
completely minor number unaware, we could consider using si_drv0 directly,
just like si_drv1 and si_drv2.

Right now we perform some of the checks inside the fcntl()'s F_DUPFD
operation twice. We first validate the `fd' argument. When finished,
we validate the `arg' argument. These checks are also performed inside
do_dup().
The reason we need to do this, is because fcntl() should return different
errno's when the `arg' argument is out of bounds (EINVAL instead of
EBADF). To prevent the redundant locking of the PROC_LOCK and
FILEDESC_SLOCK, patch do_dup() to support the error semantics required
by fcntl().

Because clists are also used outside the TTY layer, rename the file
containing the clist routines to something more accurate.
The mpsafetty TTY layer doesn't use clists. It uses its own buffers,
which also implement the unbuffered copying to userspace. We cannot
simply remove the clist routines then, because this would break various
drivers that are present within the kernel.

For some reason, the <sys/tty.h> header file also contains routines of the
clists and console that are used inside the TTY layer. Because the clists
are not only used by the TTY layer (example: various input drivers), we'd
better move the entire clist programming interface into <sys/clist.h>. Also
remove a declaration of nonexistent variable.
The <sys/tty.h> header also contains various definitions for the console
code (tty_cons.c). Also move these to <sys/cons.h>, because they are
not implemented inside the TTY layer.
While there, create separate malloc pools for the clist and console code.

PIPE_MTX().
Since the pipe_present is cleared before (potentially) sleeping, the
second thread may enter the pipeclose() for the reciprocal pipe end.
The test at the end of the pipeclose() for the pipe_present == 0 would
succeed, allowing the second thread to free the pipe memory. First
threads then accesses the freed memory after being woken up.
Properly track the closing state of the pipe in the pipe_present.

monitoring the pipe. The code sets pipe_present = 0 and enters
knlist_cleardel(), where the PIPE_MTX might be dropped when knl->kl_list
cannot be cleared due to influx knotes.
If the following often encountered code fragment
if (!(kn->kn_status & KN_DETACHED))
kn->kn_fop->f_detach(kn);
knote_drop(kn, td); [1]
is executed while the knlist lock is dropped, then the knote memory is freed
by the knote_drop() without knote being removed from the knlist, since
the filt_pipedetach() contains the following:
if (kn->kn_filter == EVFILT_WRITE) {
if (!cpipe->pipe_peer->pipe_present) {
PIPE_UNLOCK(cpipe);
return;
Now, the memory may be reused in the zone, causing the access to the
freed memory. I got the panics caused by the marker knote appearing on
the knlist, that, I believe, manifestation of the issue. In the Peter
Holm test scenarious, we got unkillable processes too.

The patch does not change the cdevsw KBI. Management of the data is
provided by the functions
int devfs_set_cdevpriv(void *priv, cdevpriv_dtr_t dtr);
int devfs_get_cdevpriv(void **datap);
void devfs_clear_cdevpriv(void);
All of the functions are supposed to be called from the cdevsw method
contexts.
- devfs_set_cdevpriv assigns the priv as private data for the file
descriptor which is used to initiate currently performed driver
operation. dtr is the function that will be called when either the
last refernce to the file goes away, the device is destroyed or
devfs_clear_cdevpriv is called.
- devfs_get_cdevpriv is the obvious accessor.
- devfs_clear_cdevpriv allows to clear the private data for the still
open file.
Implementation keeps the driver-supplied pointers in the struct
cdev_privdata, that is referenced both from the struct file and struct
cdev, and cannot outlive any of the referee.
Man pages will be provided after the KPI stabilizes.
