any open file descriptors >= 'lowfd'. It is largely identical to the same
function on other operating systems such as Solaris, DFly, NetBSD, and
OpenBSD. One difference from other *BSD is that this closefrom() does not
fail with any errors. In practice, while the manpages for NetBSD and
OpenBSD claim that they return EINTR, they ignore internal errors from
close() and never return EINTR. DFly does return EINTR, but for the common
use case (closing fd's prior to execve()), the caller really wants all
fd's closed and returning EINTR just forces callers to call closefrom() in
a loop until it stops failing.
Note that this implementation of closefrom(2) does not make any effort to
resolve userland races with open(2) in other threads. As such, it is not
multithread safe.

because it means getdelim() returns -1 for both error and EOF, and
never returns 0. However, this is what the original GNU implementation
does, and POSIX inherited the bug.

The function pow() in libmp(3) clashes with pow(3) in libm. We could
rename this single function, but we can just take the same approach as
the Solaris folks did, which is to prefix all function names with mp_.
libmp(3) isn't really popular nowadays. I suspect not a single
application in ports depends on it. There's still a chance, so I've
increased the SHLIB_MAJOR and __FreeBSD_version.

It is only really necessary for open(2)'s third argument, which is optional and
obtained through stdarg(3). open(2)'s third argument is 32bit and we pass 64
bits. On little endian it works, because we take lower 32 bits, but on big
endian platforms we take upper 32 bits, so we end up with 0.

allocated in a fork(2)-inheritable way at the beginning or end of an
accept(2) system call. This test creates a test thread and blocks it
in accept(2), then forks a child process which tests to see if the
next available file descriptor is defined or not (EBADF vs EINVAL for
ftruncate(2)).
This detects a regression introduced during the network stack locking
work, in which a very narrow race during which fork(2) from one
thread during accept(2) in a second thread lead to an extra inherited
file descriptor turned into a very wide race ensuring that a
descriptor was leaked into the child even though it hadn't been
returned.

The jot(1) regression tests directory contained two tests named `wx' and
`wX', which doesn't work on case insensitive filesystems. Rename `wX' to
`wX1'.
