The GCC attribute causes a warning to be emitted if a caller of the
function with this attribute does not use its return value. Unlike the
traditional realloc, with reallocf(3) we don't have to check for NULL
values but we still have to make sure the result is used.

The daemonfd function is equivalent to the daemon(3) function expect that
arguments are descriptors. For example dhclient(8) which is sandboxed is
unable to open /dev/null to close stdio instead it's allows to fail
daemon(3) function to close the descriptors and then do it explicit in code.
Instead of such hacks we can use now daemonfd.
This API can be also helpful to migrate system to platforms like CheriBSD.

Replace uses of the GCC __nonnull__ attribute with the clang nullability
qualifiers. The replacement should be transparent for clang developers as
the new qualifiers will produce the same warnings and will be useful for
static checkers but will not cause aggressive optimizations.
GCC will not produce such warnings and developers will have to use
upgraded GCC ports built with the system headers from r312538.

While the checks are considered useful, the attribute does dangerous
optimizations, removing NULL checks where they can be needed. Remove the

Google's bionic where this attribute is not used anymore.
The __nonnull() attribute will be deprecrated from our headers and

The setkey() and encrypt() functions are part of XSI, not the POSIX base
definitions. There is no strict requirement for us to provide these,
especially if we're only going to keep these around as undocumented
stubs. The same holds for des_setkey() and des_cipher().
Instead of providing functions that only generate warnings when linking,
simply disallow linking against them. The impact of this is relatively
low. It only causes two leaf ports to break. I'll see what I can do to
help out to get those fixed.

POSIX requires that these functions have an unsigned int for their first
argument; not an unsigned long.
My reasoning is that we can safely change these functions without
breaking the ABI. As far as I know, our supported architectures either
use registers for passing function arguments that are at least as big as
long (e.g., amd64), or int and long are of the same size (e.g., i386).

The `nonnull' attribute specifies that some function parameters should be
non-null pointers. This is very useful as it helps the compiler generate
warnings on suspicious code and can also enable some small optimizations.
Also start using 'alloc_size' attribute in the allocator functions.
This is an initial step to better integrate our libc with the compiler:
these attributes are fully supported by clang and they are also useful
for the static analyzer.
Note that due to some bogus internal procedure in the way gcc ports
are built they may require updating if they were built before r280801.

The C11 folks reinvented the wheel by introducing an aligned version of

The __noreturn macro, unlike __dead2, must be used BEFORE the function.
This is in line with the C and C++ specifications that place _Noreturn (c1x)
and [[noreturn]] (C++11) in front of the functions. As with __dead2, this
macro falls back to using the GCC attribute.
Unfortunately, clang currently sets the same value for the C version macro
in C99 and C1x modes, so these functions are hidden by default. At some
point before 10.0, I need to go through the headers and clean up the C1x /
C++11 visibility.

A more elegant way of obtaining a name of a character device by its file
descriptor on FreeBSD, is to use the FIODGNAME ioctl. Because a valid
file descriptor implies a file descriptor is visible in /dev, it will
always resolve a valid device name.
I'm adding a more friendly wrapper for this ioctl, called fdevname(). It
is a lot easier to use than devname() and also has better error
handling. When a device name cannot be resolved, it will just return
NULL instead of a generated device name that makes no sense.
