- Add a new KTR_STRUCT_ARRAY ktrace record type which dumps an array of
structures.
The structure name in the record payload is preceded by a size_t
containing the size of the individual structures. Use this to
replace the previous code that dumped the kevent arrays dumped for
kevent(). kdump is now able to decode the kevent structures rather
than dumping their contents via a hexdump.
One change from before is that the 'changes' and 'events' arrays are
not marked with separate 'read' and 'write' annotations in kdump
output. Instead, the first array is the 'changes' array, and the
second array (only present if kevent doesn't fail with an error) is
the 'events' array. For kevent(), empty arrays are denoted by an
entry with an array containing zero entries rather than no record.
- Move kevent decoding tables from truss to libsysdecode.
This adds three new functions to decode members of struct kevent:
sysdecode_kevent_filter, sysdecode_kevent_flags, and
sysdecode_kevent_fflags.
kdump uses these helper functions to pretty-print kevent fields.
- Move structure definitions for freebsd11 and freebsd32 kevent
structures to <sys/event.h> so that they can be shared with userland.
The 32-bit structures are only exposed if _WANT_KEVENT32 is defined.
The freebsd11 structures are only exposed if _WANT_FREEBSD11_KEVENT is
defined. The 32-bit freebsd11 structure requires both.
- Decode freebsd11 kevent structures in truss for the compat11.kevent()
system call.
- Log 32-bit kevent structures via ktrace for 32-bit compat kevent()
system calls.
- While here, constify the 'void *data' argument to ktrstruct().

The Software Package Data Exchange (SPDX) group provides a specification
to make it easier for automated tools to detect and summarize well known
opensource licenses. We are gradually adopting the specification, noting
that the tags are considered only advisory and do not, in any way,
superceed or replace the license texts.
Special thanks to Wind River for providing access to "The Duke of
Highlander" tool: an older (2014) run over FreeBSD tree was useful as a
starting point.
Initially, only tag files that use BSD 4-Clause "Original" license.

The most important change in this release is the removal of the
poll_fd() system call; CloudABI's equivalent of kevent(). Though I think
that kqueue is a lot saner than many of its alternatives, our
experience is that emulating this system call on other systems
accurately isn't easy. It has become a complex API, even though I'm not
convinced this complexity is needed. This is why we've decided to take a
different approach, by looking one layer up.
We're currently adding an event loop to CloudABI's C library that is API
compatible with libuv (except when incompatible with Capsicum).
Initially, this event loop will be built on top of plain inefficient
poll() calls. Only after this is finished, we'll work our way backwards
and design a new set of system calls to optimize it.
Interesting challenges will include integrating asynchronous I/O into
such a system call API. libuv currently doesn't aio(4) on Linux/BSD, due
to it being unreliable and having undesired semantics.

Now that CloudABI's sockets API has been changed to be addressless and
only connected socket instances are used (e.g., socket pairs), they have
become fairly similar to pipes. The only differences on CloudABI is that
socket pairs additionally support shutdown(), send() and recv().
To simplify the ABI, we've therefore decided to remove pipes as a
separate file descriptor type and just let pipe() return a socket pair
of type SOCK_STREAM. S_ISFIFO() and S_ISSOCK() are now defined
identically.
Move tables that were previously in truss over to libsysdecode. truss
output is unchanged, but kdump has been updated to decode these fields.
In addition, sysdecode_sysarch_number() should support all platforms
whereas the old table in truss only supported x86.
Specifically, decode the siginfo structure returned by sigtimedwait(),
sigwaitinfo(), and wait6(). While here, also decode the signal number
returned in the second argument to sigwait().
Now that all of the packaged software has been adjusted to either use
Flower (https://github.com/NuxiNL/flower) for making incoming/outgoing
network connections or can have connections injected, there is no longer
need to keep accept() around. It is now a lot easier to write networked
services that are address family independent, dual-stack, testable, etc.
Remove all of the bits related to accept(), but also to
getsockopt(SO_ACCEPTCONN).
With Flower (CloudABI's network connection daemon) becoming more
complete, there is no longer any need for creating any unconnected
sockets. Socket pairs in combination with file descriptor passing is all
that is necessary, as that is what is used by Flower to pass network
connections from the public internet to listening processes.
Remove all of the kernel bits that were used to implement socket(),
listen(), bindat() and connectat(). In principle, accept() and
SO_ACCEPTCONN may also be removed, but there are still some consumers
left.

The CloudABI specification has had some minor changes over the last half
year. No substantial features have been added, but some features that
are deemed unnecessary in retrospect have been removed:
- mlock()/munlock():
These calls tend to be used for two different purposes: real-time
support and handling of sensitive (cryptographic) material that
shouldn't end up in swap. The former use case is out of scope for
CloudABI. The latter may also be handled by encrypting swap.
Removing this has the advantage that we no longer need to worry about
having resource limits put in place.
- SOCK_SEQPACKET:
Support for SOCK_SEQPACKET is rather inconsistent across various
operating systems. Some operating systems supported by CloudABI (e.g.,
macOS) don't support it at all. Considering that they are rarely used,
remove support for the time being.
- getsockname(), getpeername(), etc.:
A shortcoming of the sockets API is that it doesn't allow you to
create socket(pair)s, having fake socket addresses associated with
them. This makes it harder to test applications or transparently
forward (proxy) connections to them.
With CloudABI, we're slowly moving networking connectivity into a
separate daemon called Flower. In addition to passing around socket
file descriptors, this daemon provides address information in the form
of arbitrary string labels. There is thus no longer any need for
requesting socket address information from the kernel itself.
This change also updates consumers of the generated code accordingly.
Even though system calls end up getting renumbered, this won't cause any
problems in practice. CloudABI programs always call into the kernel
through a kernel-supplied vDSO that has the numbers updated as well.

This change implements NOTE_ABSTIME flag for EVFILT_TIMER, which
specifies that the data field contains absolute time to fire the
event.
To make this useful, data member of the struct kevent must be extended
to 64bit. Using the opportunity, I also added ext members. This
changes struct kevent almost to Apple struct kevent64, except I did
not changed type of ident and udata, the later would cause serious API
incompatibilities.
The type of ident was kept uintptr_t since EVFILT_AIO returns a
pointer in this field, and e.g. CHERI is sensitive to the type
(discussed with brooks, jhb).
Unlike Apple kevent64, symbol versioning allows us to claim ABI
compatibility and still name the new syscall kevent(2). Compat shims
are provided for both host native and compat32.

This includes decoding both scheduler policy constants and the sched_param
structure for sched_get_priority_max(), sched_get_priority_min(),
sched_getparam(), sched_getscheduler(), sched_rr_get_interval(),
sched_setparam(), and sched_setscheduler().
The cmd argument passed to extattrctl() is not decoded as a string constant
but is just printed in hex. The value is filesystem-specific but in
practice is only used with UFS1 filesystems.
- dup and dup2 print fd arguments in decimal.
- pread and pwrite are similar to read and write with the addition of the
file offset.
- getdirentries displays the output entries as a string for now and also
prints the value returned in *basep. Eventually the buffer for
getdirentries should perhaps be decoded as an array of dirent
structures.

Decoding of the third argument depends on the first one. For doing this,
add a corresponding function to libsysdecode.
Thanks to jhb@ for suggesting this.
Decode the last argument to ioctl() as a pointer rather than an int.
Eventually this could use 'int' for the _IOWINT() case and pointers for
all others.
The last argument to sendto() is a socklen_t value, not a pointer.
