Modern debuggers and process tracers use ptrace() rather than procfs
for debugging. ptrace() has a supserset of functionality available
via procfs and new debugging features are only added to ptrace().
While the two debugging services share some fields in struct proc,
they each use dedicated fields and separate code. This results in
extra complexity to support a feature that hasn't been enabled in the
default install for several years.

node is set, allow setting security.bsd.unprivileged_proc_debug per-jail.
In part, this is needed to create jails in which the Address Sanitizer
(ASAN) fully works as ASAN utilizes libkvm to inspect the virtual address
space. Instead of having to allow unprivileged process debugging for the
entire system, allow setting it on a per-jail basis.
The sysctl node is still security.bsd.unprivileged_proc_debug and the
jail(8) param is allow.unprivileged_proc_debug. The sysctl code is now a
sysctl proc rather than a sysctl int. This allows us to determine setting
the flag for the corresponding jail (or prison0).
As part of the change, the dynamic allow.* API needed to be modified to
take into account pr_allow flags which may now be disabled in prison0.
This prevents conflicts with new pr_allow flags (like that of vmm(4)) that
are added (and removed) dynamically.
Also teach the jail creation KPI to allow differences for certain pr_allow
flags between the parent and child jail. This can happen when unprivileged
process debugging is disabled in the parent prison, but enabled in the
child.

The lock is required to ensure that the switch to the new credentials
and the transfer of the process's accounting data from the old
credentials to the new ones is done atomically. Otherwise, some updates
may be applied to the new credentials and then additionally transferred
from the old credentials if the updates happen after proc_set_cred() and
before racct_proc_ucred_changed().
The problem is especially pronounced for RACCT_RSS because
- there is a strict accounting for this resource (it's reclaimable)
- it's updated asynchronously by the vm daemon
- it's updated by setting an absolute value instead of applying a delta
I had to remove a call to rctl_proc_ucred_changed() from
racct_proc_ucred_changed() and make all callers of latter call the
former as well. The reason is that rctl_proc_ucred_changed, as it is
implemented now, cannot be called while holding the proc lock, so the
lock is dropped after calling racct_proc_ucred_changed. Additionally,
I've added calls to crhold / crfree around the rctl call, because
without the proc lock there is no gurantee that the new credentials,
owned by the process, will stay stable. That does not eliminate a
possibility that the credentials passed to the rctl will get stale.
Ideally, rctl_proc_ucred_changed should be able to work under the proc
lock.
Many thanks to kib for pointing out the above problems.

closer to "just about everywhere" than "only some files" per the

Mainly focus on files that use BSD 3-Clause license.
The Software Package Data Exchange (SPDX) group provides a specification
to make it easier for automated tools to detect and summarize well known
opensource licenses. We are gradually adopting the specification, noting
that the tags are considered only advisory and do not, in any way,
superceed or replace the license texts.
Special thanks to Wind River for providing access to "The Duke of
Highlander" tool: an older (2014) run over FreeBSD tree was useful as a
starting point.
A long long time ago the register keyword told the compiler to store
the corresponding variable in a CPU register, but it is not relevant
for any compiler used in the FreeBSD world today.

Their primary use was in thread_cow_update to free up old resources.
Freeing had to be done with proc lock held and _cow_ funcs already knew
how to free old structs.
Thread credentials are maintained as follows: each thread has a pointer to
creds and a reference on them. The pointer is compared with proc's creds on
userspace<->kernel boundary and updated if needed.
This patch introduces a counter which can be compared instead, so that more
structures can use this scheme without adding more comparisons on the boundary.
proc_set_cred_init can be used to set first credentials of a new
