For some reason, the <sys/tty.h> header file also contains routines of the
clists and console that are used inside the TTY layer. Because the clists
are not only used by the TTY layer (example: various input drivers), we'd
better move the entire clist programming interface into <sys/clist.h>. Also
remove a declaration of nonexistent variable.
The <sys/tty.h> header also contains various definitions for the console
code (tty_cons.c). Also move these to <sys/cons.h>, because they are
not implemented inside the TTY layer.
While there, create separate malloc pools for the clist and console code.

Both sysinstall and sade still seem to use the TIOCGSIZE ioctl to obtain
the terminal dimensions. We'd better use TIOCGWINSZ to do this. The
TIOCGWINSZ interface is preferred, because it also allows sizes in pixels
to be passed to the application (though this is not used here).

PIPE_MTX().
Since the pipe_present is cleared before (potentially) sleeping, the
second thread may enter the pipeclose() for the reciprocal pipe end.
The test at the end of the pipeclose() for the pipe_present == 0 would
succeed, allowing the second thread to free the pipe memory. First
threads then accesses the freed memory after being woken up.
Properly track the closing state of the pipe in the pipe_present.
Introduce the intermediate state that marks the pipe as mostly
dismantled but might be sleeping waiting for the knote list to be
cleared. Free the pipe pair memory only when both ends pass that point.

monitoring the pipe. The code sets pipe_present = 0 and enters
knlist_cleardel(), where the PIPE_MTX might be dropped when knl->kl_list
cannot be cleared due to influx knotes.
If the following often encountered code fragment
if (!(kn->kn_status & KN_DETACHED))
kn->kn_fop->f_detach(kn);
knote_drop(kn, td); [1]
is executed while the knlist lock is dropped, then the knote memory is freed
by the knote_drop() without knote being removed from the knlist, since
the filt_pipedetach() contains the following:
if (kn->kn_filter == EVFILT_WRITE) {
if (!cpipe->pipe_peer->pipe_present) {
PIPE_UNLOCK(cpipe);
return;
Now, the memory may be reused in the zone, causing the access to the
freed memory. I got the panics caused by the marker knote appearing on
the knlist, that, I believe, manifestation of the issue. In the Peter
Holm test scenarious, we got unkillable processes too.
The pipe_peer that has the knote for write shall be present. Ignore the
pipe_present value for EVFILT_WRITE in filt_pipedetach().

hardlink table for two reasons: 1. If le->name is set to NULL, the
structure le won't be inserted into the table; 2. Even if le somehow
did manage to get into the table with le->name equal to NULL, we would
die when we dereferenced le->null before we could get to the point of
freeing the entry.
Remove the unnecessary "if (le->name != NULL)" test and just free the
pointer.

While we're here, fix a long-standing bug in the handling of write(2)
errors: The API changed from "return # of bytes written" to "return
status code" almost 4 years ago, so instead of returning (-1) we need
to return ARCHIVE_FATAL.

We must ensure that restore zeros out the previously undefined
birthtime and external attribute size fields when reading dump
tapes made by the UFS1 dump program.
The problem is that UFS2 dump carefully zeros out the unused
birthtime and external attribute size fields in the dump header
when dumping UFS1 filesystems, but the UFS1 dump didn't know about
those fields (they were spares) so just left whatever random junk
was in them. So, when restoring one of these pre-UFS2 dumps,
the new restore would eventually trip across a header that had
a non-zero external attribute size and try to extract it. That
consumed several tape blocks which left it totally out of sync
and very unhappy (i.e., the panic). The fix is in the gethead()
function which modernizes old headers by copying old fields to
their new location (and with this fix) zeroing out previously
undefined fields.

Even though single linked lists allow items to be removed at constant time
(when the previous element is known), the queue macro's don't allow this.
Implement new REMOVE_NEXT() macro's. Because the REMOVE() macro's also
contain the same code, make it call REMOVE_NEXT().
The OpenBSD version of SLIST_REMOVE_NEXT() needs a reference to the list
head, even though it is unused. We'd better mimic this. The STAILQ version
also needs a reference to the list. This means the prototypes of both
macro's are the same.

Our current TTY layer uses a set-uid application called ptchown to
change ownership of a PTY slave device. The new TTY layer implements
this functionality through a new ioctl().
By accident I discovered Darwin's TTY layer also uses this approach.
Because of this, they also have a GID_TTY.
