This avoids spurious drop offs as EMPTY is passed regardless of the
actual path name.
Pushign the work inside the lookup instead of just ignorign the flag
allows avoid checking for empty pathname for all other lookups.
On kernels compiled with 'options TSLOG', record for each process ID:
* The timestamp of the fork() which creates it and the parent
process ID,
* The first path passed to execve(), if any,
* The first path resolved by namei, if any, and
* The timestamp of the exit() which terminates the process.
Expose this information via a new sysctl, debug.tslog_user.
On kernels lacking 'options TSLOG' (the default), no information is
recorded and the sysctl does not exist.
Note that recording namei is needed in order to obtain the names of
rc.d scripts being launched, as the rc system sources them in a
subshell rather than execing the scripts.
With this commit it is now possible to generate flamecharts of the
entire boot process from the start of the loader to the end of
/etc/rc. The code needed to perform this processing is currently
found in github: https://github.com/cperciva/freebsd-boot-profiling

Set NIRES_EMPTYPATH earlies, to have use of EMPTYPATH recorded even if
we are going to return error. When namei_setup() refused to accept dirfd,
which is not of the vnode type, and indicated by ENOTDIR error return,
fall back to kern_fstat(dirfd).

bounded by NAME_MAX, into a dirent buffer of size MAXNAMLEN. These
constants have the same value; add a compile-time assertion to that

Tracker should contain exactly the path from the starting directory to
the current lookup point. Otherwise we might not detect some cases of
dotdot escape. Consequently, if we are walking up the tree by dotdot
lookup, we must remove an entries below the walked directory.

Both FreeBSD and Linux mkdir -p walk the tree up ignoring any EEXIST on
the way and both are used a lot when building respective kernels.
This poses a problem as spurious locking avoidably interferes with
concurrent operations like getdirentries on affected directories.
Work around the problem by adding FAILIFEXISTS flag. In case of lockless
lookup this manages to avoid any work to begin with, there is no speed
up for the locked case but perhaps this can be augmented later on.
For simplicity the only supported semantics are as used by mkdir.

struct nameidata mixes caller arguments, internal state and output, which
can be quite error prone.
Recent addition of valdiating ni_resflags uncovered a caller which could
repeatedly call namei, effectively operating on partially populated state.
Add bare minimium validation this does not happen. The real fix would
decouple aforementioned state.

was not latched, which means that (non-existent) path did not returned
to the topping location, give ENOTCAPABLE a priority over the lookup()

Shrinks struct componentname from 64 to 56 bytes on amd64.
The actual bug is not yet addressed as it will get much easier after other
problems are addressed (most notably rename contract).
The only affected in-tree consumer is realpath. Everyone else happens to be
performing lookups within a mount point, having a side effect of ni_dvp being
set to mount point's root vnode in the worst case.

namei de facto expects that the naimeidata object is properly initialized,
but at the same time it mixes consumer-passable and internal flags, while
tolerating this part by explicitly clearing some of them.
Tighten the interface instead.
While here renumber the flags and denote the gap between the 2 variants.
Try to piggy back th renumber on the just bumped __FreeBSD_version.
This means there is no expectation lookup will purge the terminal entry,
which simplifies lockless lookup.
