signal trampoline for old signals. The arches that support old signals
currently abuse sigreturn(2) instead. This mainly complicates things
and slightly breaks the the new sigreturn(2).
COMPAT is too limited to support the correct configuration of osigreturn,

osigreturn() must now be provided unconditionally even on arches that
don't really need it; previously it had to be provided under the bogus

To fix the race and accomplish the speedup, remove selholddrop and
pollholddrop. The entire concept is somewhat bogus because holding
the individual struct file pointers offers us no guarantees that
another thread context won't close it on us thereby removing our
access to our own reference.
Selholddrop and pollholddrop also would do multiple locks and unlocks
of mutexes _per-file_ in the fd arrays to be scanned, this needed to
be sped up.
Instead of using selholddrop and pollholddrop, simply hold the
filedesc lock over the selscan and pollscan functions. This should
protect us against close(2)'s on the files as reduce the multiple
lock/unlock pairs per fd into a single lock over the filedesc.

committed to disk. The result was lost files or corrupted file data.
This change ensures that the filesystem is properly synced to disk
before the filesystem is down-graded.
This delta also fixes a long standing bug in which a file open for
reading has been unlinked. When the last open reference to the file
is closed, the inode is reclaimed by the filesystem. Previously,
if the filesystem had been down-graded to read-only, the inode could
not be reclaimed, and thus was lost and had to be later recovered
by fsck. With this change, such files are found at the time of the
down-grade. Normally they will result in the filesystem down-grade
failing with `device busy'. If a forcible down-grade is done, then
the affected files will be revoked causing the inode to be released
and the open file descriptors to begin failing on attempts to read.

- Note that this subtly changes the protection semantics, and we should
watch out for any resulting breakage. Previously, delivery of SIGIO
in this circumstance was limited to situations where the subject was
privileged, or where one of the subject's (ruid, euid) matched one
of the object's (ruid, euid). In the new scenario, subject (ruid, euid)
are matched against the object's (ruid, svuid), and the object uid's
must be a subset of the subject uid's. Likewise, jail now affects
delivery, and special handling for P_SUGID of the object is present.
This change can always be reversed or tweaked if it proves to disrupt
application behavior substantially.

This will permit the same logic to be reused in situations where only
the credential generating the signal is available, such as in the
delivery of SIGIO.
- Because of two clauses, the automatic success against curproc,
and the session semantics for SIGCONT, not all logic can be pushed
into cr_cansignal(), but those cases should not apply for most other
consumers of cr_cansignal().

mutex releases to not require flags for the cases when preemption is
not allowed:
The purpose of the MTX_NOSWITCH and SWI_NOSWITCH flags is to prevent
switching to a higher priority thread on mutex releease and swi schedule,
respectively when that switch is not safe. Now that the critical section
API maintains a per-thread nesting count, the kernel can easily check
whether or not it should switch without relying on flags from the
programmer. This fixes a few bugs in that all current callers of
swi_sched() used SWI_NOSWITCH, when in fact, only the ones called from
fast interrupt handlers and the swi_sched of softclock needed this flag.
Note that to ensure that swi_sched()'s in clock and fast interrupt
handlers do not switch, these handlers have to be explicitly wrapped
in critical_enter/exit pairs. Presently, just wrapping the handlers is
sufficient, but in the future with the fully preemptive kernel, the
interrupt must be EOI'd before critical_exit() is called. (critical_exit()
can switch due to a deferred preemption in a fully preemptive kernel.)
I've tested the changes to the interrupt code on i386 and alpha. I have
not tested ia64, but the interrupt code is almost identical to the alpha
code, so I expect it will work fine. PowerPC and ARM do not yet have
interrupt code in the tree so they shouldn't be broken. Sparc64 is
broken, but that's been ok'd by jake and tmm who will be fixing the
interrupt code for sparc64 shortly.

- MI wrapper functions critical_enter/exit maintain a per-thread nesting

to nesting level 0. This moves the saved state out of spin mutexes so
that interlocking spin mutexes works properly.
- Most low-level MD code that used critical_enter/exit now use
cpu_critical_enter/exit. MI code such as device drivers and spin
mutexes use the MI wrappers. Note that since the MI wrappers store
