Basically FIFOs become a real pain to abuse as a rendevous point without
this change because you can't really select(2) on them because they always
return ready even though there is no writer (to signal EOF).

quad_t cannot be printed with %lld on 64 bit systems.
Dont waste cpu to round user and system times up to long long, it is
highly improbable that a process will have accumulated 68 years of
user or system cpu time (not wall clock time) before a reboot or
process restart.
structure changes now rather then piecemeal later on. mnt_nvnodelist
currently holds all the vnodes under the mount point. This will eventually
be split into a 'dirty' and 'clean' list. This way we only break kld's once
rather then twice. nvnodelist will eventually turn into the dirty list
and should remain compatible with the klds.
that a buffer's b_blkno would be valid. This is true when vmiodirenable
is turned off because the B_MALLOC'd buffer's data is invalidated when
the buffer is destroyed. But when vmiodirenable is turned on a buffer
can be reconstituted from its VMIO backing store. The reconstituted buffer
will have no knowledge of the physical block translation and the result is
serious directory corruption of the CDROM.
The solution is to fix cd9660_blkatoff() to always BMAP the buffer if
b_lblkno == b_blkno.

- crhold() returns a reference to the ucred whose refcount it bumps.
- crcopy() now simply copies the credentials from one credential to
another and has no return value.
- a new crshared() primitive is added which returns true if a ucred's
refcount is > 1 and false (0) otherwise.
Until now, the ptrace syscall was implemented as a wrapper that called
various functions in procfs depending on which ptrace operation was
requested. Most of these functions were themselves wrappers around
procfs_{read,write}_{,db,fp}regs(), with only some extra error checks,
which weren't necessary in the ptrace case anyway.
This commit moves procfs_rwmem() from procfs_mem.c into sys_process.c
(renaming it to proc_rwmem() in the process), and implements ptrace()
directly in terms of procfs_{read,write}_{,db,fp}regs() instead of
having it fake up a struct uio and then call procfs_do{,db,fp}regs().
It also moves the prototypes for procfs_{read,write}_{,db,fp}regs()
and proc_rwmem() from proc.h to ptrace.h, and marks all procfs files
except procfs_machdep.c as "optional procfs" instead of "standard".
the target process was being held locked during the uiomove() call. If the
process calling readdir() was the same as the target process (for instance
'ls /proc/curproc/'), and uiomove() caused a page fault, the result would
be a proc lock recursion. I have no idea how long this has been broken -
possibly ever since pfind() was changed to lock the process it returns.
Also replace the one and only call to procfs_findtextvp() with a direct
test of td->td_proc->p_textvp.
YA pseudofs megacommit, part 2:
- Merge the pfs_vnode and pfs_vdata structures, and make the vnode cache
a doubly-linked list. This eliminates the need to walk the list in
pfs_vncache_free().
- Add an exit callout which revokes vnodes associated with the process
that just exited. Since it needs to lock the cache when it does this,
pfs_vncache_mutex needs MTX_RECURSE.
- Add a third callback to the pfs_node structure. This one simply returns
non-zero if the specified requesting process is allowed to access the
specified node for the specified target process. This is used in
addition to the usual permission checks, e.g. when certain files don't
make sense for certain (system) processes.
- Make sure that pfs_lookup() and pfs_readdir() don't yap about files
which aren't pfs_visible(). Also check pfs_visible() before performing
reads and writes, to prevent the kind of races reported in SA-00:77 and
SA-01:55 (fork a child, open /proc/child/ctl, have that child fork a
setuid binary, and assume control of it).
- Add some more trace points.
- Rearrange the flag constants a little to simplify specifying and testing
for readability and writeability.
pseudofs_vnops.c:
- Track the aforementioned change.
- Add checks to pfs_open() to prevent opening read-only files for writing
or vice versa (pfs_{read,write} would block the actual reads and writes,
but it's still a bug to allow the open() to succeed). Also, return
EOPNOTSUPP if the caller attempts to lock the file.
- Add more trace points.
- Remove hardcoded uid, gid, mode from struct pfs_node; make pfs_getattr()
smart enough to get it right most of the time, and allow for callbacks
to handle the remaining cases. Rework the definition macros to match.
- Add lots of (conditional) debugging output.
- Fix a long-standing bug inherited from procfs: don't pretend to be a
read-only file system. Instead, return EOPNOTSUPP for operations we
truly can't support and allow others to fail silently. In particular,
pfs_lookup() now treats CREATE as LOOKUP. This may need more work.
- In pfs_lookup(), if the parent node is process-dependent, check that
the process in question still exists.
- Implement pfs_open() - its only current function is to check that the
process opening the file can see the process it belongs to.
- Finish adding support for writeable nodes.
- Bump module version number.
- Introduce lots of new bugs.
- Use some simple #define's at the top of the files for proc -> thread
changes instead of having lots of needless #ifdef's in the code.
- Don't try to use struct thread in !FreeBSD code.
- Don't use a few struct lwp's in some of the NetBSD code since it isn't
in their HEAD.
The new diff relative to before KSE is now signficantly smaller and easier
to maintain.
Note ALL MODULES MUST BE RECOMPILED
make the kernel aware that there are smaller units of scheduling than the
process. (but only allow one thread per process at this time).
This is functionally equivalent to teh previousl -current except
that there is a thread associated with each process.
Sorry john! (your next MFC will be a doosie!)
