string as possible and return ENOMEM if the entire string cannot
be returned. This brings the routines in line with how the man
page says they work, and how the calling routines are expecting
them to work. This allows the dummy uname() routine in libc to
obtain the version string, since the kernel version string is
longer than that normally returned by the uname() routine.
This is 3/4 of the fix for PR# 462.

umountable file systems, hung processes, or system panics:
- Some operations could return without decrementing the vnode
reference count.
- Some operations could leave the vnode locked.
- Generalize the /kern/rootdev & rrootdev files so that they
are no longer special cased in kernfs_lookup().
Note: procfs, fdescfs, and most of the other miscfs/* file systems
also suffer from the same type of problems and I will work on
fixing them one at a time.

as is required to be POSIXLY_CORRECT and "right". I interpret
"referring to a directory" as being a directory or becoming a
directory. E.g., the trailing slashes in mkdir("/nonesuch/"),
rename("/tmp", /nonesuch/") and link("/tmp", "/root_can_like_dirs/")
are ignored because the target will become a directory if the
syscall succeeds. A trailing slash on a symlink causes the symlink
to be followed (this is a bug if the symlink doesn't point to a
directory; fix later).
queues for TIOCSETA[W]. Swapping an even number of times broke
the queue resource limits. This would have broken CRTSCTS flow
control if the clist slush list was used up.
Don'concatenate the queues for TIOCSETA[W] if one of the queues
has a resource limit of 0. Concatenation would cause a panic if
one of the queues is nonempty and the other is limited to length
0. This may have caused panics in PPPDISC.

Most of the support for this has already been committed. Drivers should
call ttwwakeup() to handle wakeups whenever output is below low water
(and some output event causes this condition to be checked) or TS_BUSY is
cleared.
tty.c:
Fix the livelock in ttywait() properly by sleeping on output complete, not
on output below low water.
Use ttwwakeup() instead of separate select and output wakeups for all
wakeups of writers.
Add wakeups of writers for output flushes and carrier/clocal transitions.
Don't go to sleep in ttycheckoutq() if ttstart() reduces the queue to below
low water.
Use the timeout built into tsleep() in ttycheckoutq().
Optimize the select wakeup in ttwwakeup(). It seems reasonable to know
too much about the internals of tp->t_wsel now that the knowledge is
localised in tty.c.

Running there you got any kind of strange errors from tar caused

Fix it by adding new isfile(name) (check for reg. files) to simple fexists(name) calls.
pkg_manage silently dumps core, pkg_info claims about them to
stderr, which makes very difficult to find what directory cause it via
tons of pkg_info -a output. I found solution which covers both variants,
now pkg_info claims about missing files to stdout among valid output
with ERROR: prefix. It heals pkg_manage to not dump core and makes
easy to find errors in pkg_info -a output by simple /ERROR 'more' command.

Remove nullmodem().
It may be useful to have a null modem routine, but nullmodem()
wasn't one. nullmodem() was identical to ttymodem() except it
didn't implement MDMBUF (carrier) flow control, didn't do any
wakeups for off to on carrier transitions, and didn't flush the
i/o queues for on to off carrier transitions (flushing has the side
effect of waking up readers and writers) although it did generate
SIGHUPs. The wakeups must normally be done even if nullmodem() is
null in case something is sleeping waiting for a carrier transition.
In any case, the wakeups should be harmless. They may cause bogus
results for select(), but select() is already bogus for nonstandard
line disciplines.
