This is currently an opt-in build flag. Once ASLR support is ready and stable
it should changed to opt-out and be enabled by default along with ASLR.
Each application Makefile uses opt-out to ensure that ASLR will be enabled by
default in new directories when the system is compiled with PIE/ASLR. [2]
Mark known build failures as NO_PIE for now.
The only known runtime failure was rtld.

In r266650, we made libatf-c and libatf-c++ private libraries so that no
components outside of the source tree could unintendedly depend on them.
This change does the same for the "atf-sh library" by moving the atf-sh
interpreter from its public location in /usr/bin/ to the private location
in /usr/libexec/. Our build system will ensure that our own test programs
use the right binary, but users won't be able to depend on atf-sh by
"mistake".
Committing this now to ride the UPDATING notice added with r267172 today.
remove the now-redundant checks for RELEASE_CRUNCH. This originally
was defined for building smaller sysinstall images, but was later also
used by picobsd builds for a similar purpose. Now that we've moved
away from sysinstall, picobsd is the only remaining consumer of this
interface. Adding these two options reduces the RELEASE_CRUNCH
special cases in the tree by half.
We should not be leaking these interfaces to the outside world given
that it's much easier for third-party components to use the devel/atf
package from ports.
As a side-effect, we can also drop the ATF pkgconfig and aclocal files
from the base system. Nothing in the base system needs these, and it
was quite ugly to have to get them installed only so that a few ports
could build. The offending ports have been fixed to depend on
devel/atf explicitly.

mode. This allows the binder to be functional in the child after the
fork (assuming no lazy loading of a filter is needed), but other rtld
services which require write lock on rtld_bind_lock cause deadlock, if
called by child.
Change the _rtld_atfork() to lock the bind lock in write mode, making
the rtld fully functional after the fork.
Pre-resolve the symbols which are called by the libthr' fork()
interposer, since dynamic resolution causes deadlock due to the
rtld_bind_lock already owned in the write mode.

first calls mmap() with the arguments PROT_NONE and MAP_ANON to reserve a
single, contiguous range of virtual addresses for the entire shared library.
Later, rtld calls mmap() with the the shared library's file descriptor
and the argument MAP_FIXED to place the text and data sections within the
reserved range. The rationale for mapping shared libraries in this way is
explained in the commit message for Revision 190885. However, this approach
does have an unintended, negative consequence. Since the first call to
mmap() specifies MAP_ANON and not the shared library's file descriptor, the
kernel has no idea what alignment the vm object backing the file prefers.
As a result, the reserved range's alignment is unlikely to be the same as
the vm object's, and so mapping with superpages becomes impossible. To
address this problem, this revision adds the argument MAP_ALIGNED_SUPER to
the first call to mmap() if the text section is larger than the smallest
superpage size.
To determine if the text section is larger than the smallest superpage
size, rtld must always fetch the page size information. As a result, the
private code for fetching the base page size in rtld's builtin malloc is
redundant. Eliminate it. Requested by: kib

Change {atf,plain,tap}.test.mk to be internal implementation details of
bsd.test.mk. Makefiles that build tests should now only include bsd.test.mk
and declaratively specify what they want to build, without worrying about
the internal implementation of the mk files.
The reason for this change is to permit building test programs of different
interfaces from a single directory, which is something I had a need for
while porting tests over from src/tools/regression/.
Additionally, this change makes it possible to perform some other requested
changes to bsd.test.mk in an easier manner. Coming soon.

There is no reason to keep the two knobs separate: if tests are
enabled, the ATF libraries are required; and if tests are disabled,
the ATF libraries are not necessary. Keeping the two just serves
to complicate the build.
