Robert Watson aee1b42ab6 Now that the kernel access control for quotactl(2) appears to work
properly, clean up quota(1).  quota(1) has the ability to query
quotas either directly from the kernel, or if that fails, by reading
the quota.user or quota.group files specified for the file system
in /etc/fstab.  The setuid bit existed solely (apparently) to let
non-operator users query their quotas and consumption when quotas
weren't enabled for the file system.

o Remove the setuid bit from quota(1).

o Remove the logic used by quota(1) when running setuid to prevent
  users from querying the quotas of other users or groups.  Note
  that this papered over previously broken kernel access control;
  if you queried directly using the system call, you could access
  some of the data "restricted" by quota(1).

In the new world order, the ability to inspect the (live) quotas of
other uids and gids via the kernel is controlled by the privilege
requirement sysctl.  The ability to query via the file is controlled
by the file permissions on the quota database backing files
(root:operator, group readable by default).

This is the top level of the FreeBSD source directory.  This file
was last revised on:
$FreeBSD$

For copyright information, please see the file COPYRIGHT in this
directory (additional copyright information also exists for some
sources in this tree - please see the specific source directories for
more information).

The Makefile in this directory supports a number of targets for
building components (or all) of the FreeBSD source tree, the most
commonly used one being ``world'', which rebuilds and installs
everything in the FreeBSD system from the source tree except the
kernel, the kernel-modules and the contents of /etc.  The
``buildkernel'' and ``installkernel'' targets build and install
the kernel and the modules (see below).  Please see the top of
the Makefile in this directory for more information on the
standard build targets and compile-time flags.

Building a kernel is a somewhat more involved process, documentation
for which can be found at:
   http://www.freebsd.org/doc/en_US.ISO8859-1/books/handbook/kernelconfig.html
And in the config(8) man page.
Note: If you want to build and install the kernel with the
``buildkernel'' and ``installkernel'' targets, you might need to build
world before.  More information is available in the handbook.

The sample kernel configuration files reside in the sys/<arch>/conf
sub-directory (assuming that you've installed the kernel sources), the
file named GENERIC being the one used to build your initial installation
kernel.  The file NOTES contains entries and documentation for all possible
devices, not just those commonly used.  It is the successor of the ancient
LINT file, but in contrast to LINT, it is not buildable as a kernel but a
pure reference and documentation file.
