Without this, code calls pthread_once(), receives a return value of
success, and thinks that the passed function has been called.

system calls to provide feed-forward clock management capabilities to
userspace processes. ffclock_getcounter() returns the current value of the
kernel's feed-forward clock counter. ffclock_getestimate() returns the current
feed-forward clock parameter estimates and ffclock_setestimate() updates the
feed-forward clock parameter estimates.

- Regenerate the script-derived syscall related files.

To address this, try at first to load the key without a passphrase.
If this succeeds and the user provided a non-empty passphrase *or*
nullok is false, reject the key.

Please test any code you have that uses the C standard locale functions!

change here is to ensure that when a process forks after arc4random
is seeded, the parent and child don't observe the same random sequence.
OpenBSD's fix introduces some additional overhead in the form of a
getpid() call. This could be improved upon, e.g., by setting a flag
in fork(), if it proves to be a problem.
This was discussed with secteam (simon, csjp, rwatson) in 2008, shortly
prior to my going out of town and forgetting all about it. The conclusion
was that the problem with forks is worrisome, but it doesn't appear to
have introduced an actual vulnerability for any known programs.
The only significant remaining difference between our arc4random and
OpenBSD's is in how we seed the generator in arc4_stir().
OpenBSD's version (r1.22). While some of our style changes were
indeed small improvements, being able to easily track functionality
changes in OpenBSD seems more useful.
Also fix style bugs in the FreeBSD-specific parts of this file.
No functional changes, as verified with md5.

Some consumers of PAM remove the /dev/ component (i.e. login), while
others don't (i.e. su). We must ensure that the /dev/ component is
removed to ensure that the utmpx entries properly work with tools such
as w(1).

to be gcc's default before r198344, calls to atomic builtins will not be
expanded inline. Instead, they will be generated as calls to external
functions (e.g. __sync_fetch_and_add_N), leading to linking errors later
on.
Put in a seatbelt that disables use of atomic builtins in libstdc++ and
llvm, when tuning specifically for the real i386 CPU. This does not
protect against all possible issues, but it is better than nothing.
This variable was added in r82352 back in 2001, but even then it didn't
have any use. Because it's not marked static, the C compiler won't
complain about it.

The size passed to strlcat() must depend on the input length, not the
output length. Because the input and output buffers are equal in size,
the resulting binary does not change at all.
madvise(2) except that it operates on a file descriptor instead of a
memory region. It is currently only supported on regular files.
Just as with madvise(2), the advice given to posix_fadvise(2) can be
divided into two types. The first type provide hints about data access
patterns and are used in the file read and write routines to modify the
I/O flags passed down to VOP_READ() and VOP_WRITE(). These modes are
thus filesystem independent. Note that to ease implementation (and
since this API is only advisory anyway), only a single non-normal
range is allowed per file descriptor.
The second type of hints are used to hint to the OS that data will or
will not be used. These hints are implemented via a new VOP_ADVISE().
A default implementation is provided which does nothing for the WILLNEED
request and attempts to move any clean pages to the cache page queue for
the DONTNEED request. This latter case required two other changes.
First, a new V_CLEANONLY flag was added to vinvalbuf(). This requests
vinvalbuf() to only flush clean buffers for the vnode from the buffer
cache and to not remove any backing pages from the vnode. This is
used to ensure clean pages are not wired into the buffer cache before
attempting to move them to the cache page queue. The second change adds
a new vm_object_page_cache() method. This method is somewhat similar to
vm_object_page_remove() except that instead of freeing each page in the
specified range, it attempts to move clean pages to the cache queue if
possible.
To preserve the ABI of struct file, the f_cdevpriv pointer is now reused
in a union to point to the currently active advice region if one is
present for regular files.

When booting the system, truncate the utx.active file, but do write the
BOOT_TIME record into it afterwards. This allows one to obtain the boot
time of the system as follows:
struct utmpx u1 = { .ut_type = BOOT_TIME }, *u2;
setutxent();
u2 = getutxid(&u1);
Now, the boot time is stored in u2->ut_tv, just like on Linux and other
systems.
We don't open the utx.active file with O_EXLOCK. It's rather unlikely
that other applications use this database at the same time and I want to
prevent the possibility of deadlocks in init(8).
