* Fix a race in chunk_dealloc_dss().
* Check for allocation failure before zeroing memory in base_calloc().
Merge enhancements from a divergent version of jemalloc:
* Convert thread-specific caching from magazines to an algorithm that is
more tunable, and implement incremental GC.
* Add support for medium size classes, [4KiB..32KiB], 2KiB apart by
default.
* Add dirty page tracking for pages within active small/medium object
runs. This allows malloc to track precisely which pages are in active
use, which makes dirty page purging more effective.
* Base maximum dirty page count on proportion of active memory.
* Use optional zeroing in arena_chunk_alloc() to avoid needless zeroing
of chunks. This is useful in the context of DSS allocation, since a
long-lived application may commonly recycle chunks.
* Increase the default chunk size from 1MiB to 4MiB.
Remove feature:
* Remove the dynamic rebalancing code, since thread caching reduces its
utility.
- Make sure the mode argument is either a character or a block device.
- Use S_IS*() instead of checking S_IF*-flags by hand.

- Perform some whitespace fixes. Tabs instead of 4 spaces, missing space

When we had utmp(5), we had to list all the psuedo-terminals in ttys(5)
to make ttyslot(3) function properly. Now that pututxline(3) deals with
slot allocation internally (not based on TTY names), we don't need to
list all the TTYs on the system in ttys(5) to make user accounting work
properly.
This patch removes all the entries from the /etc/ttys files, but also
the pts(4) entries that were appended implicitly, which was added in
r154838.
Continuous catopen() calls cause 4 failig stat(2) each, which means a lot
of overhead. It is also a good idea to keep the opened catalogs in the memory
to speed up further catopen() calls to the same catalog since these catalogs
are not big at all. In this case, we count references and only free() the
allocated space when the reference count reaches 0. The reads and writes to
the cache are syncronized with an rwlock when these functions are called from
a threaded program.

I've noticed many applications do a bad job at timekeeping, for several
reasons:
- Applications like screen(1) don't update time records when restoring
the old user login record.
- Many applications only set ut_tv.tv_sec, not ut_tv.tv_usec.
This causes many problems for tools such as ac(8), which require the
timestamps to be properly ordered. This is why I've decided to let the
utmpx code obtain valid timestamps itself.
I've discussed this issue with the Austin Group and it will be fixed in
future revisions of the specification. The issue was that ut_line fields
weren't supposed to be valid for LOGIN_PROCESS entries, while
getutxline() would try to match these records anyway.
They also agreed on our way of implementing pututxline() without
getutxid() (which other operating systems also do), but unfortunately
they disagreed with our way of replacing DEAD_PROCESS entries, which is
a pity. The current specification allows the utmpx database to become
infinitely big over time.

It makes hardly any sense to expose a symbol which should only be
provided for binary compatibility, but it seems we don't have a lot of
choice here. There are many autoconf scripts out there that try to
create a binary that links against the old symbol to see whether
uname(3) is present. These scripts fail to detect uname(3) now.
It should be noted that the behaviour we implement is not against the
standards:
| The following shall be declared as a function and may also be defined
| as a macro:
|
| int uname(struct utsname *);
POSIX 2008 and XSI 7require strcoll() for opendir() is not true.
I can't find such requirement in POSIX 2008 and XSI 7.
So, back out that part of my commit, returning old strcmp(), and remove
this misleading comment.
It also matches now how our 'ls' works for years.
b) Remove comment expressed 2 fears:
1) One just simple describe how strcoll() works in _any_ context,
not for directories only. Are we plan to remove strcoll() from everything
just because it is little more complex than strcmp()? I doubt, and
directories give nothing different here. Moreover, strcoll() used
in 'ls' for years and nobody complaints yet.
2) Plain wrong statement about undefined strcoll() behaviour. strcoll()
always gives predictable results, falling back to strcmp() on any
trouble, see strcoll(3).
No objections from -current list discussion.
- Massively reduce BSS usage. Let futx_to_utx() dynamically allocate the
structure. There is only a very small amount of applications out there
that needs to use the utmpx database. Wasting 1 KB on unused
structures makes little sense.
- Just let getutxid() search for matching ut_id's for any *PROCESS-type.
This makes the code a bit more future-proof.
- Fix a POSIX-mistake: when reading POSIX and the OpenSolaris
implementation, getutxline() must return USER_PROCESS and
LOGIN_PROCESS records whose ut_lines match. When reading POSIX, it
seems LOGIN_PROCESS should not use ut_line at the first place. I have
reported this issue.
After comparing how other systems deal with utmp/utmpx, I noticed many
systems don't even care about ttyslot(3) anymore, since utmpx doesn't
use TTY slots anyway. We don't provide any tools to access old utmp
files anymore, so there is no use in letting applications write to a
proper offset within the utmp file.
Just let ttyslot(3) always return 0, which seems to be the default
behaviour on operating systems like Linux as well.
Nowadays uname(3) is an inline function around __xuname(3). Prevent
linkage of new binaries against this compatibility function, similar to
what I did with ttyslot(3).
This utility allows users to convert their wtmp databases to the new
format. It makes no sense for users to keep their wtmp log files if they
are unable to view them.
It basically copies ut_line into ut_id as well. This makes it possible
for last(1) and ac(8) to match login records with their corresponding
logout record.
I forgot to cast the size_t's back to off_t before negating them,
causing all sorts of artifacts where the log files would grow to 2^32 -
197 bytes.

Even though we use __sym_compat(), we should list the symbol in

ttyslot() is now listed as follows, which seems to do the right thing:

Phase out ttyslot(3).
The ttyslot() function was originally part for SUSv1, marked LEGACY in
SUSv2 and removed later on. This function only makes sense when using
utmp(5), because it was used to determine the offset of the record for
the controlling TTY. It makes little sense to keep it here, because the
new utmpx file format doesn't index based on TTY slots.

The utmpx interface is the standardized interface of the user accounting
database. The standard only defines a subset of the functions that were
present in System V-like systems.
I'd like to highlight some of the traits my implementation has:
- The standard allows the on-disk format to be different than the
in-memory representation (struct utmpx). Most operating systems don't
do this, but we do. This allows us to keep our ABI more stable, while
giving us the opportunity to modify the on-disk format. It also allows
us to use a common file format across different architectures (i.e.
byte ordering).
- Our implementation of pututxline() also updates wtmp and lastlog (now
called utx.log and utx.lastlogin). This means the databases are more
likely to be in sync.
- Care must be taken that our implementation discard any fields that are
not applicable. For example, our DEAD_PROCESS records do not hold a
TTY name. Just a time stamp, a record identifier and a process
identifier. It also guarantees that strings (ut_host, ut_line and
ut_user) are null terminated. ut_id is obviously not null terminated,
because it's not a string.
- The API and its behaviour should be conformant to POSIX, but there may
be things that slightly deviate from the standard. This implementation
uses separate file descriptors when writing to the log files. It also
doesn't use getutxid() to search for a field to overwrite. It uses an
allocation strategy similar to getutxid(), but prevents DEAD_PROCESS
records from accumulating.
Make sure libulog doesn't overwrite the manpages shipped with our C
library. Also keep the symbol list in Symbol.map sorted.
I'll bump __FreeBSD_version later this evening. I first want to convert
everything to <utmpx.h> and get rid of <utmp.h>.
Prior to this commit, fread/fwrite calls with size * nmemb > SIZE_MAX
were handled by reading or writing (size_t)(size * nmemb) bytes; for
example, on 32-bit platforms, fread(ptr, 641, 6700417, f) would read 1
byte and indicate that the requested 6700417 blocks had been read.
This commit adds a check for such integer overflows, and treats them as
if an overly large request was passed to read/write; i.e., it sets errno
to EINVAL, sets the error indicator on the file, and returns a short
object count (0, to be specific).
The overflow check involves an integer division, so as a performance
optimization we check first to see if both size and nmemb are less than
2^16; if they are, no overflow is possible and we avoid the division.
We assume here that size_t is at least 32 bits; this appears to be true
on all platforms FreeBSD supports.
Although this commit fixes an integer overflow, it is not likely to have
any security implications, since any program which would be affected by
this bug fix is quite clearly already very confused.

now type sema_t is a structure which can be put in a shared memory area,
and multiple processes can operate it concurrently.
User can either use mmap(MAP_SHARED) + sem_init(pshared=1) or use sem_open()
to initialize a shared semaphore.
Named semaphore uses file system and is located in /tmp directory, and its
file name is prefixed with 'SEMD', so now it is chroot or jail friendly.
In simplist cases, both for named and un-named semaphore, userland code
does not have to enter kernel to reduce/increase semaphore's count.
The semaphore is designed to be crash-safe, it means even if an application
is crashed in the middle of operating semaphore, the semaphore state is
still safely recovered by later use, there is no waiter counter maintained
by userland code.
The main semaphore code is in libc and libthr only has some necessary stubs,
this makes it possible that a non-threaded application can use semaphore
without linking to thread library.
Old semaphore implementation is kept libc to maintain binary compatibility.
The kernel ksem API is no longer used in the new implemenation.

a large page size that is greater than malloc(3)'s default chunk size but
less than or equal to 4 MB, then increase the chunk size to match the large
page size.
Most often, using a chunk size that is less than the large page size is not
a problem. However, consider a long-running application that allocates and
frees significant amounts of memory. In particular, it frees enough memory
at times that some of that memory is munmap()ed. Up until the first
munmap(), a 1MB chunk size is just fine; it's not a problem for the virtual
memory system. Two adjacent 1MB chunks that are aligned on a 2MB boundary
will be promoted automatically to a superpage even though they were
allocated at different times. The trouble begins with the munmap(),
releasing a 1MB chunk will trigger the demotion of the containing superpage,
leaving behind a half-used 2MB reservation. Now comes the real problem.
Unfortunately, when the application needs to allocate more memory, and it
recycles the previously munmap()ed address range, the implementation of
mmap() won't be able to reuse the reservation. Basically, the coalescing
rules in the virtual memory system don't allow this new range to combine
with its neighbor. The effect being that superpage promotion will not
reoccur for this range of addresses until both 1MB chunks are freed at some
point in the future.

This isn't valid behaviour when looking at the spec. Because I thought
it was an elegant solution, I filed a bug report at the Austin Group
about this. In their last teleconference, they agreed on this subject.
This means that future revisions of POSIX may allow grantpt() and
unlockpt() to be no-ops if an open() on /dev/ptmx (if the implementation
has such a device) and posix_openpt() already do the right thing.

NGROUPS_MAX, eliminate ABI dependencies on them, and raise the to 1024
and 1023 respectively. (Previously they were equal, but under a close
reading of POSIX, NGROUPS_MAX was defined to be too large by 1 since it
is the number of supplemental groups, not total number of groups.)
The bulk of the change consists of converting the struct ucred member
cr_groups from a static array to a pointer. Do the equivalent in
kinfo_proc.
Introduce new interfaces crcopysafe() and crsetgroups() for duplicating
a process credential before modifying it and for setting group lists
respectively. Both interfaces take care for the details of allocating
groups array. crsetgroups() takes care of truncating the group list
to the current maximum (NGROUPS) if necessary. In the future,
crsetgroups() may be responsible for insuring invariants such as sorting
the supplemental groups to allow groupmember() to be implemented as a
binary search.
Because we can not change struct xucred without breaking application
ABIs, we leave it alone and introduce a new XU_NGROUPS value which is
always 16 and is to be used or NGRPS as appropriate for things such as
NFS which need to use no more than 16 groups. When feasible, truncate
the group list rather than generating an error.
Minor changes:
- Reduce the number of hand rolled versions of groupmember().
- Do not assign to both cr_gid and cr_groups[0].
- Modify ipfw to cache ucreds instead of part of their contents since
they are immutable once referenced by more than one entity.

system callers of getgroups(), getgrouplist(), and setgroups() to
allocate buffers dynamically. Specifically, allocate a buffer of size
sysconf(_SC_NGROUPS_MAX)+1 (+2 in a few cases to allow for overflow).
This (or similar gymnastics) is required for the code to actually follow
the POSIX.1-2008 specification where {NGROUPS_MAX} may differ at runtime
and where getgroups may return {NGROUPS_MAX}+1 results on systems like
FreeBSD which include the primary group.
In id(1), don't pointlessly add the primary group to the list of all
groups, it is always the first result from getgroups(). In principle
the old code was more portable, but this was only done in one of the two
places where getgroups() was called to the overall effect was pointless.
Document the actual POSIX requirements in the getgroups(2) and
setgroups(2) manpages. We do not yet support a dynamic NGROUPS, but we
may in the future.

dace for UPDv4 sockets bound to INADDR_ANY. Move the code to set
IP_RECVDSTADDR/IP_SENDSRCADDR into svc_dg.c, so that both TLI and non-TLI
users will be using it.
Back out my previous commit to mountd. Turns out the problem was affecting
more than one binary so it needs to me addressed in generic rpc code in
libc in order to fix them all.

While hacking on TTY code, I often miss a small utility to revoke my own
(pseudo-)terminals. This small utility is just a small wrapper around
the revoke(2) call, so you can destroy your very own login sessions.

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.

Last year I added SLIST_REMOVE_NEXT and STAILQ_REMOVE_NEXT, to remove
entries behind an element in the list, using O(1) time. I recently
discovered NetBSD also has a similar macro, called SLIST_REMOVE_AFTER.
In my opinion this approach is a lot better:
- It doesn't have the unused first argument of the list pointer. I added
this, mainly because OpenBSD also had it.
- The _AFTER suffix makes a lot more sense, because it is related to
SLIST_INSERT_AFTER. _NEXT is only used to iterate through the list.
The reason why I want to rename this now, is to make sure we don't
release a major version with the badly named macros.
by creating a child jail, which is visible to that jail and to any
parent jails. Child jails may be restricted more than their parents,
but never less. Jail names reflect this hierarchy, being MIB-style
dot-separated strings.
Every thread now points to a jail, the default being prison0, which
contains information about the physical system. Prison0's root
directory is the same as rootvnode; its hostname is the same as the
global hostname, and its securelevel replaces the global securelevel.
Note that the variable "securelevel" has actually gone away, which
should not cause any problems for code that properly uses
securelevel_gt() and securelevel_ge().
Some jail-related permissions that were kept in global variables and
set via sysctls are now per-jail settings. The sysctls still exist for
backward compatibility, used only by the now-deprecated jail(2) system
call.
