Linux emulation code that uses the stackgap.
Add copyiniov() which copies a struct iovec array in from userland into
a malloc'ed struct iovec. Caller frees.
Change uiofromiov() to malloc the uio (caller frees) and name it
copyinuio() which is more appropriate.
Add cloneuio() which returns a malloc'ed copy. Caller frees.
Use them throughout.

I belive it works as it should.
options, status pointer and rusage pointer as arguments. It is up to
the caller to copyout the status and rusage to userland if needed. This
lets us axe the 'compat' argument and hide all that functionality in
owait(), by the way. This also cleans up some locking in kern_wait()
since it no longer has to drop locks around copyout() since all the
copyout()'s are deferred.
- Convert owait(), wait4(), and the various ABI compat wait() syscalls to
use kern_wait() rather than wait1() or wait4(). This removes a bit
more stackgap usage.

Remove the unused second argument from udev2dev().
Convert all remaining users of makedev() to use udev2dev(). The
semantic difference is that udev2dev() will only locate a pre-existing
dev_t, it will not line makedev() create a new one.
Apart from the tiny well controlled windown in D_PSEUDO drivers,
there should no longer be any "anonymous" dev_t's in the system
now, only dev_t's created with make_dev() and make_dev_alias()
- struct plimit includes a mutex to protect a reference count. The plimit
structure is treated similarly to struct ucred in that is is always copy
on write, so having a reference to a structure is sufficient to read from
it without needing a further lock.
- The proc lock protects the p_limit pointer and must be held while reading
limits from a process to keep the limit structure from changing out from
under you while reading from it.
- Various global limits that are ints are not protected by a lock since
int writes are atomic on all the archs we support and thus a lock
wouldn't buy us anything.
- All accesses to individual resource limits from a process are abstracted
behind a simple lim_rlimit(), lim_max(), and lim_cur() API that return
either an rlimit, or the current or max individual limit of the specified
resource from a process.
- dosetrlimit() was renamed to kern_setrlimit() to match existing style of
other similar syscall helper functions.
- The alpha OSF/1 compat layer no longer calls getrlimit() and setrlimit()
(it didn't used the stackgap when it should have) but uses lim_rlimit()
and kern_setrlimit() instead.
- The svr4 compat no longer uses the stackgap for resource limits calls,
but uses lim_rlimit() and kern_setrlimit() instead.
- The ibcs2 compat no longer uses the stackgap for resource limits. It
also no longer uses the stackgap for accessing sysctl's for the
ibcs2_sysconf() syscall but uses kernel_sysctl() instead. As a result,
ibcs2_sysconf() no longer needs Giant.
- The p_rlimit macro no longer exists.

of adding the code to lock and unlock the vnodes and taking care
to avoid deadlock, simplify linux_emul_convpath() by comparing the
vnode pointers directly instead of comparing their va_fsid and
va_fileid attributes. This allows the removal of the calls to
VOP_GETATTR().
The log message for rev.1.160 of kern/uipc_syscalls.c and associated
changes only claimed to add restrict qualifiers (which have no effect in
the kernel so they probably shouldn't be added), but the following
interface changes were also made:
- caddr_t to `void *' and `struct sockaddr_t *'
- `int *' to `socklen_t *'.
These interface changes are not quite null, and this fix is quick (like
the changes in uipc_syscalls 1.160) because it uses bogus casts instead
of complete bounds-checked conversions.
Things should be fixed better when the conversions can be done without
using the stack gap. linux_check_hdrincl() already uses the stack gap
and is fixed completely though the type mismatches in it were not fatal
(there were only fatal type mismatches from unopaquing pointers to
[o]sockaddr't's -- the difference between accept()'s args and oaccept()'s
args is now non-opaque, but this is not reflected in their args structs).
purpose and the resulting vattr structure was ignored. In addition,
the VOP_GETATTR call was made with no vnode lock held, resulting in
vnode locking violation panic with debug kernels.

That change was intended to support vmware3, but
wantrem parameter is useless because vmware3 uses SYSV shared memory
to talk with X server and X server is native application.
The patch worked because check for wantrem was not valid
(wantrem and SHMSEG_REMOVED was never checked for SHMSEG_ALLOCATED segments).
Add kern.ipc.shm_allow_removed (integer, rw) sysctl (default 0) which when set
to 1 allows to return removed segments in
shm_find_segment_by_shmid() and shm_find_segment_by_shmidx().

rotted non-fatally in rev.1.105 and fatally in rev.1.137.
Many more non-egregrious casts are strictly required for conversions
from semi-opaque types to pointers, but we avoid most of them by using
types that are almost certain to be compatible with uintptr_t for
representing pointers (e.g., vm_offset_t). Here we don't really want
the u_longs, but we have them because a.out.h and its support code
doesn't use typedefs (it uses unsigned in V7 and unsigned long in
FreeBSD) and is too obsolete to fix now.

Several of the subtypes have an associated vnode which is used for
stuff like the f*() functions.
By giving the vnode a speparate field, a number of checks for the specific
subtype can be replaced simply with a check for f_vnode != NULL, and
we can later free f_data up to subtype specific use.
At this point in time, f_data still points to the vnode, so any code I
might have overlooked will still work.
