- Add proc locking to the jail() syscall. This mostly involved shuffling
a few things around so that blockable things like malloc and copyin
were performed before acquiring the lock and checking the existing
ucred and then updating the ucred as one "atomic" change under the proc
lock.
- crhold() returns a reference to the ucred whose refcount it bumps.
- crcopy() now simply copies the credentials from one credential to
another and has no return value.
- a new crshared() primitive is added which returns true if a ucred's
refcount is > 1 and false (0) otherwise.

NOTE: kern.ps_showallprocs exists in -STABLE, and therefore there is
an API change. kern.ipc.showallsockets does not.
- Check kern.security.seeotheruids_permitted in cr_cansee().
- Replace visibility calls to socheckuid() with cr_cansee() (retain
the change to socheckuid() in ipfw, where it is used for rule-matching).
- Remove prison_unpcb() and make use of cr_cansee() against the UNIX
domain socket credential instead of comparing root vnodes for the
UDS and the process. This allows multiple jails to share the same
chroot() and not see each others UNIX domain sockets.
- Remove unused socheckproc().
Now that cr_cansee() is used universally for socket visibility, a variety
of policies are more consistently enforced, including uid-based
restrictions and jail-based restrictions. This also better-supports
the introduction of additional MAC models.

code in ipl.s and icu_ipl.s that used them was removed when the
interrupt thread system was committed. Debuggers also knew about
Xresume* because these labels hide the real names of the interrupt
handlers (Xintr*), and debuggers need to special-case interrupt
handlers to get the interrupt frame.
Both gdb and ddb will now use the Xintr* and Xfastintr* symbols to
detect interrupt frames. Fast interrupt frames were never identified
correctly before, so this fixes the problem of the running stack
frame getting lost in a ddb or gdb trace generated from a fast
interrupt - e.g. when debugging a simple infinite loop in the kernel
using a serial console, the frame containing the loop would never

Until now, the ptrace syscall was implemented as a wrapper that called
various functions in procfs depending on which ptrace operation was
requested. Most of these functions were themselves wrappers around
procfs_{read,write}_{,db,fp}regs(), with only some extra error checks,
which weren't necessary in the ptrace case anyway.
This commit moves procfs_rwmem() from procfs_mem.c into sys_process.c
(renaming it to proc_rwmem() in the process), and implements ptrace()
directly in terms of procfs_{read,write}_{,db,fp}regs() instead of
having it fake up a struct uio and then call procfs_do{,db,fp}regs().
It also moves the prototypes for procfs_{read,write}_{,db,fp}regs()
and proc_rwmem() from proc.h to ptrace.h, and marks all procfs files
except procfs_machdep.c as "optional procfs" instead of "standard".
the target process was being held locked during the uiomove() call. If the
process calling readdir() was the same as the target process (for instance
'ls /proc/curproc/'), and uiomove() caused a page fault, the result would
be a proc lock recursion. I have no idea how long this has been broken -
possibly ever since pfind() was changed to lock the process it returns.
Also replace the one and only call to procfs_findtextvp() with a direct

- Add a third callback to the pfs_node structure. This one simply returns
non-zero if the specified requesting process is allowed to access the
specified node for the specified target process. This is used in
addition to the usual permission checks, e.g. when certain files don't
make sense for certain (system) processes.
