for manipulating pcb_flags. These inline functions are very similar to
atomic_set_char(9) and atomic_clear_char(9) but without unnecessary LOCK
prefix for SMP. Add comments about the rationale[1]. Use these functions
wherever possible. Although there are some places where it is not strictly
necessary (e.g., a PCB is copied to create a new PCB), it is done across
the board for sake of consistency. Turn pcb_full_iret into a PCB flag as
it is safe now. Move rarely used fields before pcb_flags and reduce size
of pcb_flags to one byte. Fix some style(9) nits in pcb.h while I am in

Mark our in-tree ABI emulators with DECLARE_MODULE_TIED. The modules

Extend struct sysvec with three new elements:
sv_fetch_syscall_args - the method to fetch syscall arguments from
usermode into struct syscall_args. The structure is machine-depended
(this might be reconsidered after all architectures are converted).
sv_set_syscall_retval - the method to set a return value for usermode
from the syscall. It is a generalization of
cpu_set_syscall_retval(9) to allow ABIs to override the way to set a
return value.
sv_syscallnames - the table of syscall names.
Use sv_set_syscall_retval in kern_sigsuspend() instead of hardcoding
the call to cpu_set_syscall_retval().
The new functions syscallenter(9) and syscallret(9) are provided that
use sv_*syscall* pointers and contain the common repeated code from
the syscall() implementations for the architecture-specific syscall
trap handlers.
Syscallenter() fetches arguments, calls syscall implementation from
ABI sysent table, and set up return frame. The end of syscall
bookkeeping is done by syscallret().
Take advantage of single place for MI syscall handling code and
implement ptrace_lwpinfo pl_flags PL_FLAG_SCE, PL_FLAG_SCX and
PL_FLAG_EXEC. The SCE and SCX flags notify the debugger that the
thread is stopped at syscall entry or return point respectively. The
EXEC flag augments SCX and notifies debugger that the process address
space was changed by one of exec(2)-family syscalls.
The i386, amd64, sparc64, sun4v, powerpc and ia64 syscall()s are
changed to use syscallenter()/syscallret(). MIPS and arm are not
converted and use the mostly unchanged syscall() implementation.

A nice thing about POSIX 2008 is that it finally standardizes a way to
obtain file access/modification/change times in sub-second precision,
namely using struct timespec, which we already have for a very long
time. Unfortunately POSIX uses different names.
This commit adds compatibility macros, so existing code should still
build properly. Also change all source code in the kernel to work
without any of the compatibility macros. This makes it all a less

I am also renaming st_birthtime to st_birthtim, even though it was a

partially fixed on amd64 earlier. Rather than forcing linux_mmap_common()
to use a 32-bit offset, have it accept a 64-bit file offset. This offset
is then passed to the real mmap() call. Rather than inventing a structure
to hold the normal linux_mmap args that has a 64-bit offset, just pass
each of the arguments individually to linux_mmap_common() since that more
closes matches the existing style of various kern_foo() functions.

Old implemention used Giant to protect the kernel data structures,
but at the same time called malloc(M_WAITOK), that could cause the
calling thread to sleep and lost Giant protection. User-visible
result was the missed wakeup.
New implementation uses one sx lock per futex. The sx protects
the futex structures and allows to sleep while copyin or copyout
are performed.
Unlike linux, we return EINVAL when FUTEX_CMP_REQUEUE operation
is requested and either caller specified futexes are equial or
second futex already exists. This is acceptable since the situation
can only occur from the application error, and glibc falls back to
old FUTEX_WAKE operation when FUTEX_CMP_REQUEUE returns an error.
