- struct plimit includes a mutex to protect a reference count. The plimit
structure is treated similarly to struct ucred in that is is always copy
on write, so having a reference to a structure is sufficient to read from
it without needing a further lock.
- The proc lock protects the p_limit pointer and must be held while reading
limits from a process to keep the limit structure from changing out from
under you while reading from it.
- Various global limits that are ints are not protected by a lock since
int writes are atomic on all the archs we support and thus a lock
wouldn't buy us anything.
- All accesses to individual resource limits from a process are abstracted
behind a simple lim_rlimit(), lim_max(), and lim_cur() API that return
either an rlimit, or the current or max individual limit of the specified
resource from a process.
- dosetrlimit() was renamed to kern_setrlimit() to match existing style of
other similar syscall helper functions.
- The alpha OSF/1 compat layer no longer calls getrlimit() and setrlimit()
(it didn't used the stackgap when it should have) but uses lim_rlimit()
and kern_setrlimit() instead.
- The svr4 compat no longer uses the stackgap for resource limits calls,
but uses lim_rlimit() and kern_setrlimit() instead.
- The ibcs2 compat no longer uses the stackgap for resource limits. It
also no longer uses the stackgap for accessing sysctl's for the
ibcs2_sysconf() syscall but uses kernel_sysctl() instead. As a result,
ibcs2_sysconf() no longer needs Giant.
- The p_rlimit macro no longer exists.

of adding the code to lock and unlock the vnodes and taking care
to avoid deadlock, simplify linux_emul_convpath() by comparing the
vnode pointers directly instead of comparing their va_fsid and
va_fileid attributes. This allows the removal of the calls to
VOP_GETATTR().
The log message for rev.1.160 of kern/uipc_syscalls.c and associated
changes only claimed to add restrict qualifiers (which have no effect in
the kernel so they probably shouldn't be added), but the following
interface changes were also made:
- caddr_t to `void *' and `struct sockaddr_t *'
- `int *' to `socklen_t *'.
These interface changes are not quite null, and this fix is quick (like
the changes in uipc_syscalls 1.160) because it uses bogus casts instead
of complete bounds-checked conversions.
Things should be fixed better when the conversions can be done without
using the stack gap. linux_check_hdrincl() already uses the stack gap
and is fixed completely though the type mismatches in it were not fatal
(there were only fatal type mismatches from unopaquing pointers to
[o]sockaddr't's -- the difference between accept()'s args and oaccept()'s
args is now non-opaque, but this is not reflected in their args structs).
purpose and the resulting vattr structure was ignored. In addition,
the VOP_GETATTR call was made with no vnode lock held, resulting in
vnode locking violation panic with debug kernels.

That change was intended to support vmware3, but
wantrem parameter is useless because vmware3 uses SYSV shared memory
to talk with X server and X server is native application.
The patch worked because check for wantrem was not valid
(wantrem and SHMSEG_REMOVED was never checked for SHMSEG_ALLOCATED segments).
Add kern.ipc.shm_allow_removed (integer, rw) sysctl (default 0) which when set
to 1 allows to return removed segments in
shm_find_segment_by_shmid() and shm_find_segment_by_shmidx().

rotted non-fatally in rev.1.105 and fatally in rev.1.137.
Many more non-egregrious casts are strictly required for conversions
from semi-opaque types to pointers, but we avoid most of them by using
types that are almost certain to be compatible with uintptr_t for
representing pointers (e.g., vm_offset_t). Here we don't really want
the u_longs, but we have them because a.out.h and its support code
doesn't use typedefs (it uses unsigned in V7 and unsigned long in
FreeBSD) and is too obsolete to fix now.

Several of the subtypes have an associated vnode which is used for
stuff like the f*() functions.
By giving the vnode a speparate field, a number of checks for the specific
subtype can be replaced simply with a check for f_vnode != NULL, and
we can later free f_data up to subtype specific use.
At this point in time, f_data still points to the vnode, so any code I
might have overlooked will still work.

be identical to the previous version except that I have at least one report
of this patch fixing problems people were having with Linux apps after my
last commit to this file. It is safer to use the switch then to make
assumptions about the flag values anyways, esp. since we currently use
MD defines for the values of the flags and this is MI code.

This is a patch to move the common parts of linux_getcwd() back into

be possible to simplify libc's getcwd() after this. No doubt this code
needs some cleaning up, since I've left in the sysctl variables I used

- Add a mutex to protect the system-wide Linux osname, osrelease, and
oss_version variables.
- Change linux_get_prison() to take a thread instead of a proc for its
first argument and to use td_ucred rather than p_ucred. This is ok
because a thread's prison does not change even though it's ucred might.
- Also, change linux_get_prison() to return a struct prison * instead of
a struct linux_prison * since it returns with the struct prison locked
and this makes it easier to safely unlock the prison when we are done
messing with it.
