pf_purge_expired_states().
Now pf purging daemon stores the current hash table index on stack
in pf_purge_thread(), and supplies it to next iteration of
pf_purge_expired_states(). The latter returns new index back.
The important change is that whenever pf_purge_expired_states() wraps
around the array it returns immediately. This makes our knowledge about
status of states expiry run more consistent. Prior to this change it
could happen that n-th run stopped on i-th entry, and returned (1) as
full run complete, then next (n+1) full run stopped on j-th entry, where
j < i, and that broke the mark-and-sweep algorythm that saves references
rules. A referenced rule was freed, and this later lead to a crash.
tree used it incorrectly, which lead to inaccurate overrated
if_obytes accounting. The drbr(9) used to update ifnet stats on
drbr_enqueue(), which is not accurate since enqueuing doesn't
imply successful processing by driver. Dequeuing neither mean
that. Most drivers also called drbr_stats_update() which did
accounting again, leading to doubled if_obytes statistics. And
in case of severe transmitting, when a packet could be several
times enqueued and dequeued it could have been accounted several
times.
o Thus, make drbr(9) API thinner. Now drbr(9) merely chooses between
ALTQ queueing or buf_ring(9) queueing.
- It doesn't touch the buf_ring stats any more.
- It doesn't touch ifnet stats anymore.
- drbr_stats_update() no longer exists.
o buf_ring(9) handles its stats itself:
- It handles br_drops itself.
- br_prod_bytes stats are dropped. Rationale: no one ever
reads them but update of a common counter on every packet
negatively affects performance due to excessive cache
invalidation.
- buf_ring_enqueue_bytes() reduced to buf_ring_enqueue(), since
we no longer account bytes.
o Drivers handle their stats theirselves: if_obytes, if_omcasts.
o mlx4(4), igb(4), em(4), vxge(4), oce(4) and ixv(4) no longer
use drbr_stats_update(), and update ifnet stats theirselves.
o bxe(4) was the most correct driver, it didn't call
drbr_stats_update(), thus it was the only driver accurate under
moderate load. Now it also maintains stats itself.
o ixgbe(4) had already taken stats from hardware, so just
- drop software stats updating.
- take multicast packet count from hardware as well.
o mxge(4) just no longer needs NO_SLOW_STATS define.
o cxgb(4), cxgbe(4) need no change, since they obtain stats
from hardware.

If you have a binary on a filesystem which is also mounted over by
nullfs, you could execute the binary from the lower filesystem, or
from the nullfs mount. When executed from lower filesystem, the lower
vnode gets VV_TEXT flag set, and the file cannot be modified while the
binary is active. But, if executed as the nullfs alias, only the
nullfs vnode gets VV_TEXT set, and you still can open the lower vnode
for write.
Add a set of VOPs for the VV_TEXT query, set and clear operations,
which are correctly bypassed to lower vnode.

mutexes held and the topology lock is an sx lock.
The topology lock was there to protect traversing through the list of providers
of disk's geom, but it seems that disk's geom has always exactly one provider.
Change the code to call g_wither_provider() for this one provider, which is
safe to do without holding the topology lock and assert that there is indeed
only one provider.

Because fts keeps internal file descriptors open across calls, making such
descriptors close-on-exec helps not only multi-threaded applications but
also single-threaded applications.
In particular, this prevents passing a temporary file descriptor for saving
the current directory to processes created via find -exec.
ngthread properly set the item's depth to 1. In particular, prior to this
change if ng_snd_item failed to acquire a lock on a node, the item's depth
would not be set at all. This fix ensures that the error code from rcvmsg/
rcvdata is properly passed back to the apply callback. For example, this
fixes a bug where an error from rcvmsg/rcvdata would not previously
propagate back to a libnetgraph consumer when the message was queued.

Passing an invalid pointer results in undefined behaviour.
The wrappers in libthr access some of the data pointed to by the arguments
in userland, so that an invalid pointer will cause a signal and not an
[EFAULT] error return.
Furthermore, if the [EFAULT] error occurs when the kernel is writing, it is
not a proper error in the sense that the call still commits (changing the
signal disposition or accepting the signal).

I have to note that POSIX is simply stupid in how it describes O_EXEC/fexecve
and friends. Yes, not only inconsistent, but stupid.
In the open(2) description, O_RDONLY flag is described as:
O_RDONLY Open for reading only.
Taken from:
http://pubs.opengroup.org/onlinepubs/9699919799/functions/open.html
Note "for reading only". Not "for reading or executing"!
In the fexecve(2) description you can find:
The fexecve() function shall fail if:
[EBADF]
The fd argument is not a valid file descriptor open for executing.
Taken from:
http://pubs.opengroup.org/onlinepubs/9699919799/functions/exec.html
As you can see the function shall fail if the file was not open with O_EXEC!
And yet, if you look closer you can find this mess in the exec.html:
Since execute permission is checked by fexecve(), the file description
fd need not have been opened with the O_EXEC flag.
Yes, O_EXEC flag doesn't have to be specified after all. You can open a file
with O_RDONLY and you still be able to fexecve(2) it.
global variables are placed. When a module is loaded by link_elf
linker its variables from "set_vnet" linker set are copied to the
kernel "set_vnet" ("modspace") and all references to these variables
inside the module are relocated accordingly.
The issue is when a module is loaded that has references to global
variables from another, previously loaded module: these references are
not relocated so an invalid address is used when the module tries to
access the variable. The example is V_layer3_chain, defined in ipfw
module and accessed from ipfw_nat.
The same issue is with DPCPU variables, which use "set_pcpu" linker
set.
Fix this making the link_elf linker on a module load recognize
"external" DPCPU/VNET variables defined in the previously loaded
modules and relocate them accordingly. For this set_pcpu_list and
set_vnet_list are used, where the addresses of modules' "set_pcpu" and
"set_vnet" linker sets are stored.
Note, archs that use link_elf_obj (amd64) were not affected by this
issue.

problematic because some callers to pmap_kextract() expect its
implementation to be lock-less. In particular, uma_dbg_alloc() implicitly
requires this. Otherwise, lock-order reversals occur between pmap locks and
UMA zone locks. So, this change introduces a lock-less implementation of
pmap_kextract().
Disable recursion on the pvh global lock in the new armv6 pmap. While
recursion on this locks occurs in the old arm pmap, it thankfully doesn't
occur in the armv6 pmap.

- Make the macros function-like:
- Evaluate all arguments exactly once.
- Make sure there's a sequence point between evaluation of the arguments
and the function body. Arguments should be evaluated before any memory
barriers.
- Fix use of __atomic_is_lock_free built-in. It requires the address of
an atomic variable as second argument. Use this built-in on clang as
well because clang's __c11_atomic_is_lock_free only takes the size of the
variable into account.
- In atomic_exchange_explicit put the barrier before instead of after the
