e3ad7f6626 Introduce a new F_DUP2FD command to fcntl(2), for compatibility with
Solaris and AIX.
fcntl(fd, F_DUP2FD, arg) and dup2(fd, arg) are functionnaly equivalent.
Document it.
Add some regression tests (identical to the dup2(2) regression tests).

d7f687fc9b Add cpuset, an api for thread to cpu binding and cpu resource grouping
and assignment.
 - Add a reference to a struct cpuset in each thread that is inherited from
   the thread that created it.
 - Release the reference when the thread is destroyed.
 - Add prototypes for syscalls and macros for manipulating cpusets in
   sys/cpuset.h
 - Add syscalls to create, get, and set new numbered cpusets:
   cpuset(), cpuset_{get,set}id()
 - Add syscalls for getting and setting affinity masks for cpusets or
   individual threads: cpuid_{get,set}affinity()
 - Add types for the 'level' and 'which' parameters for the cpuset.  This
   will permit expansion of the api to cover cpu masks for other objects
   identifiable with an id_t integer.  For example, IRQs and Jails may be
   coming soon.
 - The root set 0 contains all valid cpus.  All thread initially belong to
   cpuset 1.  This permits migrating all threads off of certain cpus to
   reserve them for special applications.

8e38aeff17 Add a new file descriptor type for IPC shared memory objects and use it to
implement shm_open(2) and shm_unlink(2) in the kernel:
- Each shared memory file descriptor is associated with a swap-backed vm
  object which provides the backing store.  Each descriptor starts off with
  a size of zero, but the size can be altered via ftruncate(2).  The shared
  memory file descriptors also support fstat(2).  read(2), write(2),
  ioctl(2), select(2), poll(2), and kevent(2) are not supported on shared
  memory file descriptors.
- shm_open(2) and shm_unlink(2) are now implemented as system calls that
  manage shared memory file descriptors.  The virtual namespace that maps
  pathnames to shared memory file descriptors is implemented as a hash
  table where the hash key is generated via the 32-bit Fowler/Noll/Vo hash
  of the pathname.
- As an extension, the constant 'SHM_ANON' may be specified in place of the
  path argument to shm_open(2).  In this case, an unnamed shared memory
  file descriptor will be created similar to the IPC_PRIVATE key for
  shmget(2).  Note that the shared memory object can still be shared among
  processes by sharing the file descriptor via fork(2) or sendmsg(2), but
  it is unnamed.  This effectively serves to implement the getmemfd() idea
  bandied about the lists several times over the years.
- The backing store for shared memory file descriptors are garbage
  collected when they are not referenced by any open file descriptors or
  the shm_open(2) virtual namespace.

b7a2eb795c Add a BUGS section to note that mount/chroot changes since
a module was loaded might make the pathname inaccurate.

I wonder if an inode reference should be stored with the pathname
to allow a validity check?

1676805c18 Add the full module path name to the kld_file_stat structure
for kldstat(2).

This allows libdtrace to determine the exact file from which
a kernel module was loaded without having to guess.

The kldstat(2) API is versioned with the size of the
kld_file_stat structure, so this change creates version 2.

Add the pathname to the verbose output of kldstat(8) too.

4dd719bd7f Change the C wrappers for mmap/lseek/pread/pwrite/truncate/ftruncate to
call the pad-less versions of the corresponding syscalls if the running
kernel supports it.  Check kern.osreldate once per program and cache the
result to select the appropriate syscall.  This maintains userland
compatability with kernel.old's from quite a while back.

65a6d893ba Classify mmap, lseek, pread, pwrite, truncate, ftruncate as pseudo
syscalls, unless WITHOUT_SYSCALL_COMPAT is defined.  The default case
will have the .c wrappers still.  If you define WITHOUT_SYSCALL_COMPAT,
the .c wrappers will go away and libc will make direct syscalls.

After 7-stable starts, the direct syscall method will be default.
