To make it easier to understand how Capsicum interacts with linkat() and
renameat(), rename the rights to CAP_{LINK,RENAME}AT_{SOURCE,TARGET}.
This also addresses a shortcoming in Capsicum, where it isn't possible
to disable linking to files stored in a directory. Creating hardlinks
essentially makes it possible to access files with additional rights.

This change implements two functions, cloudabi64_kevent_copyin() and
cloudabi64_kevent_copyout(), that convert CloudABI structures to
FreeBSD's struct kevent. CloudABI uses two structures: subscription_t
and event_t. The former is used for input, whereas the latter is used
for output. Unlike struct kevent, fields aren't overloaded for multiple
purposes or for separate event types.
For poll() we call into the newly introduced kern_kevent_anonymous()
function that allows us to poll without a file descriptor. This function
is not only used by poll(), but also by functions such as
sleep() and clock_nanosleep().

If CloudABI processes open files with a set of requested rights that do
not match any of the privileges granted by O_RDONLY, O_WRONLY or O_RDWR,
we'd better fall back to O_RDONLY -- not O_WRONLY.
CloudABI purely operates on file descriptor rights (CAP_*). File
descriptor access modes (O_ACCMODE) are emulated on top of rights.
Instead of accepting the traditional flags argument, file_open() copies
in an fdstat_t object that contains the initial rights the descriptor
should have, but also file descriptor flags that should persist after
opening (APPEND, NONBLOCK, *SYNC). Only flags that don't persist (EXCL,
TRUNC, CREAT, DIRECTORY) are passed in as an argument.
file_open() first converts the rights, the persistent flags and the
non-persistent flags to fflags. It then calls into vn_open(). If
successful, it installs the file descriptor with the requested
rights, trimming off rights that don't apply to the type of
the file that has been opened.
Unlike kern_openat(), this function does not support /dev/fd/*. I can't
think of a reason why we need to support this for CloudABI.

On CloudABI, the rights bits returned by cap_rights_get() match up with
the operations that you can actually perform on the file descriptor.
Limiting the rights is good, because it makes it easier to get uniform
behaviour across different operating systems. If process descriptors on
FreeBSD would suddenly gain support for any new file operation, this
wouldn't become exposed to CloudABI processes without first extending
the rights.
Extend fork1() to gain a 'struct filecaps' argument that allows you to
construct process descriptors with custom rights. Use this in
cloudabi_sys_proc_fork() to limit the rights to just fstat() and

Summary:
Pipes in CloudABI are unidirectional. The reason for this is that
CloudABI attempts to provide a uniform runtime environment across
different flavours of UNIX.
Instead of implementing a custom pipe that is unidirectional, we can
simply reuse Capsicum permission bits to support this. This is nice,
because CloudABI already attempts to restrict permission bits to
correspond with the operations that apply to a certain file descriptor.
Replace kern_pipe() and kern_pipe2() by a single kern_pipe() that takes
a pair of filecaps. These filecaps are passed to the newly introduced
falloc_caps() function that creates the descriptors with rights in
place.

CloudABI's openat() ensures that files are opened with the smallest set
of relevant rights. For example, when opening a FIFO, unrelated rights
like CAP_RECV are automatically removed. To remove unrelated rights, we
can just reuse the code for this that was already present in the rights
conversion function.
Summary:
CloudABI's readdir() system call could be thought of as a mixture
between FreeBSD's getdents(2) and pread(). Instead of using the file
descriptor offset, userspace provides a 64-bit cloudabi_dircookie_t
continue reading at a given point. CLOUDABI_DIRCOOKIE_START, having
value 0, can be used to return entries at the start of the directory.
The file descriptor offset is not used to store the cookie for the
reason that in a file descriptor centric environment, it would make
sense to allow concurrent use of a single file descriptor.
The remaining space returned by the system call should be filled with a
partially truncated copy of the next entry. The advantage of doing this
is that it gracefully deals with long filenames. If the C library
provides a buffer that is too small to hold a single entry, it can still
extract the directory entry header, meaning that it can retry the read
with a larger buffer or skip it using the cookie.

CloudABI uses a system call interface to modify file attributes that is
more similar to KPI's/FUSE, namely where a stat structure is passed back
to the kernel, together with a bitmask of attributes that should be
changed. This would allow us to update any set of attributes atomically.
That said, I'd rather not go as far as to actually implement it that
way, as it would require us to duplicate more code than strictly needed.
Let's just stick to the combinations that are actually used by
cloudlibc.

The file_create() system call can be used to create files of a given
type. Right now it can only be used to create directories and FIFOs. As
CloudABI does not expose filesystem permissions, this system call lacks
a mode argument. Simply use 0777 or 0666 depending on the file type.
Summary:
CloudABI provides access to two different stat structures:
- fdstat, containing file descriptor level status: oflags, file
descriptor type and Capsicum rights, used by cap_rights_get(),
fcntl(F_GETFL), getsockopt(SO_TYPE).
- filestat, containing your regular file status: timestamps, inode
number, used by fstat().
Unlike FreeBSD's stat::st_mode, CloudABI file descriptor types don't
have overloaded meanings (e.g., returning S_ISCHR() for kqueues). Add a
utility function to extract the type of a file descriptor accurately.
CloudABI does not work with O_ACCMODEs. File descriptors have two sets
of Capsicum-style rights: rights that apply to the file descriptor
itself ('base') and rights that apply to any new file descriptors
yielded through openat() ('inheriting'). Though not perfect, we can
pretty safely decompose Capsicum rights to such a pair. This is done in
convert_capabilities().
Test Plan: Tests for these system calls are fairly extensive in cloudlibc.

Summary:
CloudABI provides two different types of futex objects: read-write locks
and condition variables. There is no need to provide separate support
for once objects and thread joining, as these are efficiently simulated
by blocking on a read-write lock. Mutexes simply use read-write locks.
Condition variables always have a lock object associated to them. They
always know to which lock a thread needs to be migrated if woken up.
This allows us to implement requeueing. A broadcast on a condition
variable will never cause multiple threads to be woken up at once. They
will be woken up iteratively.
This implementation still has lots of room for improvement. Locking is
coarse and right now we use linked lists to store all of the locks and
condition variables, instead of using a hash table. The primary goal of
this implementation was to behave correctly. Performance will be
improved as we go.
Test Plan:
This futex implementation has been in use for the last couple of months
and seems to work pretty well. All of the cloudlibc and libc++ unit
tests seem to pass.

Summary:
Unlike FreeBSD, CloudABI does not use null terminated strings for its
pathnames. Introduce a function called copyin_path() that can be used by
all of the filesystem system calls that use pathnames. This change
already implements the system calls that don't depend on any additional
functionality (e.g., conversion of struct stat).
Also implement the socket system calls that operate on pathnames, namely
the ones used by the C library functions bindat() and connectat(). These
don't receive a 'struct sockaddr_un', but just the pathname, meaning
they could be implemented in such a way that they don't depend on the
size of sun_path. For now, just use the existing interfaces.
Add a missing #include to cloudabi_syscalldefs.h to get this code to
build, as one of its macros depends on UINT64_C().

Though the standard C library uses a 'struct timespec' using a 64-bit
'time_t', there is no need to use such a type at the system call level.
CloudABI uses a simple 64-bit unsigned timestamp in nanoseconds. This is
sufficient to express any time value from 1970 to 2554.
The CloudABI low-level interface also supports fetching timestamp values
with a lower precision. Instead of overloading the clock ID argument for
this purpose, the system call provides a precision argument that may be
used to specify the maximum slack. The current system call
implementation does not use this information, but it's good to already
have this available.
Expose cloudabi_convert_timespec(), as we're going to need this for
fstat() as well.

as a pointer to the ELF program header, the thread ID of the initial
thread, a stack smashing protection canary, and a pointer to the
argument data.
Fetching system call arguments and setting the return value is similar
to FreeBSD. The only differences are that system call 0 does not exist
and that we call into cloudabi_convert_errno() to convert the error
code. We also need this function in a couple of other places, so we'd

Summary:
In a runtime that is purely based on capability-based security, there is
a strong emphasis on how programs start their execution. We need to make
sure that we execute an new program with an exact set of file
descriptors, ensuring that credentials are not leaked into the process
accidentally.
Providing the right file descriptors is just half the problem. There
also needs to be a framework in place that gives meaning to these file
descriptors. How does a CloudABI mail server know which of the file
descriptors corresponds to the socket that receives incoming emails?
Furthermore, how will this mail server acquire its configuration
parameters, as it cannot open a configuration file from a global path on
disk?
CloudABI solves this problem by replacing traditional string command
line arguments by tree-like data structure consisting of scalars,
sequences and mappings (similar to YAML/JSON). In this structure, file
descriptors are treated as a first-class citizen. When calling exec(),
file descriptors are passed on to the new executable if and only if they
are referenced from this tree structure. See the cloudabi-run(1) man
page for more details and examples (sysutils/cloudabi-utils).
Fortunately, the kernel does not need to care about this tree structure
at all. The C library is responsible for serializing and deserializing,
but also for extracting the list of referenced file descriptors. The
system call only receives a copy of the serialized data and a layout of
what the new file descriptor table should look like:
int proc_exec(int execfd, const void *data, size_t datalen, const int *fds,
size_t fdslen);
This change introduces a set of fd*_remapped() functions:
- fdcopy_remapped() pulls a copy of a file descriptor table, remapping
all of the file descriptors according to the provided mapping table.
- fdinstall_remapped() replaces the file descriptor table of the process
by the copy created by fdcopy_remapped().
- fdescfree_remapped() frees the table in case we aborted before
fdinstall_remapped().
We then add a function exec_copyin_data_fds() that builds on top these
functions. It copies in the data and constructs a new remapped file
descriptor. This is used by cloudabi_sys_proc_exec().
Test Plan:
cloudabi-run(1) is capable of spawning processes successfully, providing
it data and file descriptors. procstat -f seems to confirm all is good.
Regular FreeBSD processes also work properly.
