ftruncate(), but without the pad arg.
There are several reasons for this. Consider 'mmap()'. On AMD64, the
function call (and syscall) ABI allow for 6 register arguments. Additional
arguments go on the stack. mmap(2) has 6 arguments. However, the syscall
definition has an extra 'int pad' argument. This pushes it to 7 arguments,
which means one must spill into the memory stack. Since the kernel API
doesn't match userland API, we have a hack in libc - libc/sys/mmap.c.
This implements the userland API by calling __syscall() with an extra
argument and the pad argument, for a total of 8 args. This is all
unnecessary and inconvenient for several things, including the kernel's
syscall handler code which now has to handle merging stack arguments with
register arguments. It is a big deal for certain 3rd party code.
I'm adding libc glue to make the transition totally painless. I had
intended to mark the old syscalls as COMPAT6, but the potential to shoot
your feet by building a new kernel without COMPAT_FREEBSD6 but with a
slighly older userland was too great. For now, they have manual
"freebsd6_" prefixes rather than being COMPAT6. They will go back to
being marked 'COMPAT6' after 7-stable starts.
Approved by: re (kensmith)
Also, change the visibility of compat syscalls a slightly. Compat
syscalls were missing from 'syscalls.h' entirely. This additionally adds
them with their compat prefix. eg: SYS_freebsd6_mmap.
Also, the syscalls.c names strings have different prefixes to differentiate
syscalls. Instead of several "old.mmap" strings, there will now be a
"compat.mmap" and "compat6.mmap" etc. Before, both would have had the
same "old.mmap" label.

- Protect the cp_time tick counts with atomics instead of a global lock.
There will only be one atomic per tick and this allows all processors
to execute softclock concurrently.
- In softclock, protect access to rusage and td_*tick data with the
thread_lock(), expanding the scope of the thread lock over the whole
function.
- Do some creative re-arranging in hardclock() to avoid excess locking.
- Protect the p_timer fields with the per-process spinlock.

- Add a per-turnstile spinlock to solve potential priority propagation
deadlocks that are possible with thread_lock().
- The turnstile lock order is defined as the exact opposite of the
lock order used with the sleep locks they represent. This allows us
to walk in reverse order in priority_propagate and this is the only
place we wish to multiply acquire turnstile locks.
- Use the turnstile_chain lock to protect assigning mutexes to turnstiles.
- Change the turnstile interface to pass back turnstile pointers to the
consumers. This allows us to reduce some locking and makes it easier
to cancel turnstile assignment while the turnstile chain lock is held.

- Adapt sleepqueues to the new thread_lock() mechanism.
- Delay assigning the sleep queue spinlock as the thread lock until after
we've checked for signals. It is illegal for a thread to return in
mi_switch() with any lock assigned to td_lock other than the scheduler
locks.
- Change sleepq_catch_signals() to do the switch if necessary to simplify
the callers.
- Simplify timeout handling now that locking a sleeping thread has the
side-effect of locking the sleepqueue. Some previous races are no
longer possible.

- Move all scheduler locking into the schedulers utilizing a technique
similar to solaris's container locking.
- A per-process spinlock is now used to protect the queue of threads,
thread count, suspension count, p_sflags, and other process
related scheduling fields.
- The new thread lock is actually a pointer to a spinlock for the
container that the thread is currently owned by. The container may
be a turnstile, sleepqueue, or run queue.
- thread_lock() is now used to protect access to thread related scheduling
fields. thread_unlock() unlocks the lock and thread_set_lock()
implements the transition from one lock to another.
- A new "blocked_lock" is used in cases where it is not safe to hold the
actual thread's lock yet we must prevent access to the thread.
- sched_throw() and sched_fork_exit() are introduced to allow the
schedulers to fix-up locking at these points.
- Add some minor infrastructure for optionally exporting scheduler
statistics that were invaluable in solving performance problems with
this patch. Generally these statistics allow you to differentiate
between different causes of context switches.

- Add the PCPU_ADD interface which just does an add on the pcpu member

Note that for most architectures PCPU_INC and PCPU_ADD are not safe.

sysctl_handle_int is not sizeof the int type you want to export.
The type must always be an int or an unsigned int.
Remove the instances where a sizeof(variable) is passed to stop
people accidently cut and pasting these examples.
In a few places this was sysctl_handle_int was being used on 64 bit

cases use sysctl_handle_quad to export them and change the format

td_ru. This removes the requirement for per-process synchronization in
statclock() and mi_switch(). This was previously supported by
sched_lock which is going away. All modifications to rusage are now
done in the context of the owning thread. reads proceed without locks.
- Aggregate exiting threads rusage in thread_exit() such that the exiting
thread's rusage is not lost.
- Provide a new routine, rufetch() to fetch an aggregate of all rusage
structures from all threads in a process. This routine must be used
in any place requiring a rusage from a process prior to it's exit. The
exited process's rusage is still available via p_ru.
- Aggregate tick statistics only on demand via rufetch() or when a thread
exits. Tick statistics are kept in the thread and protected by sched_lock
until it exits.

Probabilly, a general approach is not the better solution here, so we should
solve the sched_lock protection problems separately.

handler is wrapped in a couple of functions - a filter wrapper and an
ithread wrapper. In this case (and just in this case), the filter
wrapper could ask the system to schedule the ithread and mask the
interrupt source if the wrapped handler is composed of just an ithread
handler: modify the "old" interrupt code to make it support
this situation, while the "new" interrupt code is already ok.

required behavior that lock acquisition be interruptible on the socket
buffer I/O serialization lock to allow threads waiting for I/O to be

With this change, the sblock regression test is again passed.

These functions are intended to do the same actions of sx_xlock() and
sx_slock() but with the difference to perform an interruptible sleep, so
that sleep can be interrupted by external events.
In order to support these new featueres, some code renstruction is needed,
but external API won't be affected at all.

"0" cannot be a correct value since when the function is entered at least
one shared holder must be present and since we want the last one "1" is
the correct value.

- Do the correct test for ldt allocation
- Drop dt_lock just before to call kmem_free (since it acquires blocking
locks inside)
- Solve a deadlock with smp_rendezvous() where other CPU will wait

- Add dt_lock in the WITNESS list of spinlocks
