error is not EAGAIN. Several sysctls that inspect another process use
p_candebug() for checking access right for the curproc. p_candebug()
returns EAGAIN for some reasons, in particular, for the process doing
exec() now. If execing process tries to lock Giant, we get a livelock,
because sysctl handlers are covered by Giant, and often do not sleep.
Break the livelock by dropping Giant and allowing other threads to
execute in the EAGAIN loop.
Also, do not return EAGAIN from p_candebug() when process is executing,
use more appropriate EBUSY error [1].

state changes. This change modifies tunopen and tunclose to call the
if_link_state_change() function. Among other things, this will result in
devd(8) receiving events from devctl(4) for linkup/link down. This allows
us to do several useful things, including initializing tunnel parameters
and adding routes.

on a best-effort basis. Teach vn_fullpath to use this new VOP if a
regular VFS cache lookup fails. This VOP is designed to supplement the
VFS cache to provide a better chance that a vnode-to-name lookup will
succeed.
Currently, an implementation for devfs is being committed. The default
implementation is to return ENOENT.
A big thanks to kib for the mentorship on this, and to pho for running it
through his stress test suite.

One thing I didn't expect many applications to use, was kqueue() on
pseudo-terminal master devices. There are applications that use kqueue()
on the TTY itself (rtorrent, etc). That doesn't mean we shouldn't
implement this. Libraries like libevent use kqueue() by default, which
means they wouldn't be able to use kqueue().
The old TTY layer implements a very broken version of kqueue() by
performing the actual polling on the TTY device.

When I added RLIMIT_NPTS, I forgot to add it to rlimit_ident[]. Make
sure the rlimit_ident[] array is always RLIM_NLIMITS elements big. So if
we ever forget to add new rlimits to this list again. it will contain a
null pointer, instead of random data.

missed under VIMAGE_GLOBAL.
Start putting the extern declarations of the virtualized globals
under VIMAGE_GLOBAL as the globals themsevles are already.
This will help by the time when we are going to remove the globals
entirely.
While there garbage collect a few dead externs from ip6_var.h.

o Try to be smarter about reading the ExCA CSC register. Now, we only
do it for 16-bit cards. Add some experimental code to treat it like
a power interrupt, but I'm not 100% sure that I like it. It may be
removed upon further testing. It seemed to help in one test case, but
the evidence may be inconclusive. This may be beneficial for cleaning up
exca_reset and exca_wait_ready.
o Check for CSTS events on the socket event register. We ask for it when
we're powering up a card, but I don't think we're otherwise using
it. Just ACK the interrupt for now. In theory, we can use it
instead of the busy wait we do in cbb_cardbus_reset. More research
is necessary to see if we can optimize things there when we're
waiting for the DEVVENDOR register to become valid.
o Rework the comments a bit. Minor tidying up. Etc.
outside the prison_states array.
When checking if there is a name configured for the prison, check the
first character to not be '\0' instead of checking if the char array
is present, which it always is. Note, that this is different for the
*jailname in the syscall.

container structures, depending on VIMAGE_GLOBALS compile time option.
Make VIMAGE_GLOBALS a new compile-time option, which by default will not
be defined, resulting in instatiations of global variables selected for
V_irtualization (enclosed in #ifdef VIMAGE_GLOBALS blocks) to be
effectively compiled out. Instantiate new global container structures
to hold V_irtualized variables: vnet_net_0, vnet_inet_0, vnet_inet6_0,
vnet_ipsec_0, vnet_netgraph_0, and vnet_gif_0.
Update the VSYM() macro so that depending on VIMAGE_GLOBALS the V_
macros resolve either to the original globals, or to fields inside
container structures, i.e. effectively
#ifdef VIMAGE_GLOBALS
#define V_rt_tables rt_tables
#else
#define V_rt_tables vnet_net_0._rt_tables
#endif
Update SYSCTL_V_*() macros to operate either on globals or on fields
inside container structs.
Extend the internal kldsym() lookups with the ability to resolve
selected fields inside the virtualization container structs. This
applies only to the fields which are explicitly registered for kldsym()
visibility via VNET_MOD_DECLARE() and vnet_mod_register(), currently
this is done only in sys/net/if.c.
Fix a few broken instances of MODULE_GLOBAL() macro use in SCTP code,
and modify the MODULE_GLOBAL() macro to resolve to V_ macros, which in
turn result in proper code being generated depending on VIMAGE_GLOBALS.
De-virtualize local static variables in sys/contrib/pf/net/pf_subr.c
which were prematurely V_irtualized by automated V_ prepending scripts
during earlier merging steps. PF virtualization will be done
separately, most probably after next PF import.
Convert a few variable initializations at instantiation to
initialization in init functions, most notably in ipfw. Also convert
TUNABLE_INT() initializers for V_ variables to TUNABLE_FETCH_INT() in
initializer functions.

The /dev/console device node logs all strings that are written to it.
When the string does not contain a trailing newline, it appends one. I
can imagine this was useful a long time ago, but with our current
rc-scripts, it generates a whole bunch of messages that look like:
| Configuring syscons:
| blanktime
| .
By not appending the newlines, the output of `dmesg -a' is now (almost?)
exactly the same as what the user will see on the console device
(syscons, uart).

- Since the aio code likes to invoke fuword and suword a lot down in the
"bowels" of system calls, add a structure holding a set of operations for
things like storing errors, copying in the aiocb structure, storing
status, etc. The 32-bit system calls use a separate operations vector to
handle fuword32 vs fuword, etc. Also, the oldsigevent handling is now
done by having seperate operation vectors with different aiocb copyin
routines.
- Split out kern_foo() functions for the various AIO system calls so the
32-bit front ends can manage things like copying in and converting
timespec structures, etc.
- For both the native and 32-bit aio_suspend() and lio_listio() calls,
just use copyin() to read the array of aiocb pointers instead of using
a for loop that iterated over fuword/fuword32. The error handling in
the old case was incomplete (lio_listio() just ignored any aiocb's that
it got an EFAULT trying to read rather than reporting an error), and
possibly slower.
