Use OID_AUTO instead of a magic number for the debug.syncprt sysctl.
(This sysctl doesn't actually work. FreeBSD nuked it, but parts
of it were mismerged from Lite2. It is not very good, but better
than nothing.)
`mount -u'. This only matters for `mount -u' competing with unmounts.
If I understand the locking correctly: if mount() blocks, then unmount()
may run and set mp->kern_flag for the same mp. Then unmount() blocks
waiting for mount() to finish. When unmount() continues, its MNTK flags
(MNTK_UNMOUNT and MNTK_MWAIT) may have been clobbered.
Didn't fix old bugs:
- restoring mp->mnt_kern_flag is wrong for the same reasons in the error
case.
- the error case of unmount() seems to be broken too:
(a) MNTK_UNMOUNT gets clobbered, although another unmount() may have
set it. Perhaps it shouldn't be set until after the full lock is
aquired.
(b) MNTK_MWAIT isn't honoured.
Fixed a nearby style bug.

Add an option to the way UFS works dependent on the SUID bit of directories
This changes makes things a whole lot simpler on systems running as
fileservers for PCs and MACS. to enable the new code you must
1/ enable option SUIDDIR on the kernel.
2/ mount the filesystem with option suiddir.
hopefully this makes it difficult enough for people to
do this accidentally.
see the new chmod(2) man page for detailed info.
Ever since I first say the way the mount flags were used I've hated the
fact that modes, and events, internal and exported, and short-term
and long term flags are all thrown together. Finally it's annoyed me enough..
This patch to the entire FreeBSD tree adds a second mount flag word
to the mount struct. it is not exported to userspace. I have moved
some of the non exported flags over to this word. this means that we now
have 8 free bits in the mount flags. There are another two that might
well move over, but which I'm not sure about.
The only user visible change would have been in pstat -v, except
that davidg has disabled it anyhow.
I'd still like to move the state flags and the 'command' flags
apart from each other.. e.g. MNT_FORCE really doesn't have the
same semantics as MNT_RDONLY, but that's left for another day.
it in struct proc instead.
This fixes a boatload of compiler warning, and removes a lot of cruft
from the sources.
I have not removed the /*ARGSUSED*/, they will require some looking at.
libkvm, ps and other userland struct proc frobbing programs will need
recompiled.
Distribute all but the most fundamental malloc types. This time I also
remembered the trick to making things static: Put "static" in front of
them.
A couple of finer points by: bde
1. Clustered I/O is switched by the MNT_NOCLUSTERR and MNT_NOCLUSTERW
bits of the mnt_flag. The sysctl variables, vfs.foo.doclusterread
and vfs.foo.doclusterwrite are deleted. Only mount option can
control clustered I/O from userland.
2. When foofs_mount mounts block device, foofs_mount checks D_CLUSTERR
and D_CLUSTERW bits of the d_flags member in the block device switch
table. If D_NOCLUSTERR / D_NOCLUSTERW are set, MNT_NOCLUSTERR /
MNT_NOCLUSTERW bits will be set. In this case, MNT_NOCLUSTERR and
MNT_NOCLUSTERW cannot be cleared from userland.
3. Vnode driver disables both clustered read and write.
4. Union filesystem disables clutered write.

plus the previous changes to use the zone allocator decrease the useage
of malloc by half. The Zone allocator will be upgradeable to be able
to use per CPU-pools, and has more intelligent usage of SPLs. Additionally,
it has reasonable stats gathering capabilities, while making most calls
inline.

of users not being able to delete their symlinks from /tmp once and for
all.
Symlinks do not have modes though, they are accessable to everything that
can read the directory (as before). They are made to show this fact at
lstat time (they appear as mode 0777 always, since that's how the the
lookup routines in the kernel treat them).
More commits will follow, eg: add a real lchown() syscall and man pages.

Broke locking on named pipes in the same way as locking on non-vnodes
(wrong errno). This will be fixed later.
The fix involves negative logic. Named pipes are now distinguished from
other types of files with vnodes, and there is additional code to handle
vnodes and named pipes in the same way only where that makes sense (not
for lseek, locking or TIOCSCTTY).
