33fdc14c0c Update kernel inclusions of capability.h to use capsicum.h instead; some
further refinement is required as some device drivers intended to be
portable over FreeBSD versions rely on __FreeBSD_version to decide whether

b66f059b49 change td_retval into a union w/ off_t, with defines to mask the
change...  This eliminates a cast, and also forces td_retval
(often 2 32-bit registers) to be aligned so that off_t's can be
stored there on arches with strict alignment requirements like
armeb (AVILA)...  On i386, this doesn't change alignment, and on
amd64 it doesn't either, as register_t is already 64bits...

This will also prevent future breakage due to people adding additional
fields to the struct...

This gets AVILA booting a bit farther...

04bb6e10cd Add a mmap flag (MAP_32BIT) on 64-bit platforms to request that a mapping use
an address in the first 2GB of the process's address space.  This flag should
have the same semantics as the same flag on Linux.

To facilitate this, add a new parameter to vm_map_find() that specifies an
optional maximum virtual address.  While here, fix several callers of
vm_map_find() to use a VMFS_* constant for the findspace argument instead of
TRUE and FALSE.

16c7563cf4 The soft and hard busy mechanism rely on the vm object lock to work.
Unify the 2 concept into a real, minimal, sxlock where the shared
acquisition represent the soft busy and the exclusive acquisition
represent the hard busy.
The old VPO_WANTED mechanism becames the hard-path for this new lock
and it becomes per-page rather than per-object.
The vm_object lock becames an interlock for this functionality:
it can be held in both read or write mode.
However, if the vm_object lock is held in read mode while acquiring
or releasing the busy state, the thread owner cannot make any
assumption on the busy state unless it is also busying it.

Also:
- Add a new flag to directly shared busy pages while vm_page_alloc
  and vm_page_grab are being executed.  This will be very helpful
  once these functions happen under a read object lock.
- Move the swapping sleep into its own per-object flag

The KPI is heavilly changed this is why the version is bumped.
It is very likely that some VM ports users will need to change
their own code.

fd361c8faa mqueue,ksem,shm: Fix race condition with setting UF_EXCLOSE.
POSIX mqueue, compatibility ksem and POSIX shm create a file descriptor that
has close-on-exec set. However, they do this incorrectly, leaving a window
where a thread may fork and exec while the flag has not been set yet. The
race is easily reproduced on a multicore system with one thread doing
shm_open and close and another thread doing posix_spawnp and waitpid.

Set UF_EXCLOSE via falloc()'s flags argument instead. This also simplifies
the code.

f07ebb8888 Merge Capsicum overhaul:
- Capability is no longer separate descriptor type. Now every descriptor
  has set of its own capability rights.

- The cap_new(2) system call is left, but it is no longer documented and
  should not be used in new code.

- The new syscall cap_rights_limit(2) should be used instead of
  cap_new(2), which limits capability rights of the given descriptor
  without creating a new one.

- The cap_getrights(2) syscall is renamed to cap_rights_get(2).

- If CAP_IOCTL capability right is present we can further reduce allowed
  ioctls list with the new cap_ioctls_limit(2) syscall. List of allowed
  ioctls can be retrived with cap_ioctls_get(2) syscall.

- If CAP_FCNTL capability right is present we can further reduce fcntls
  that can be used with the new cap_fcntls_limit(2) syscall and retrive
  them with cap_fcntls_get(2).

- To support ioctl and fcntl white-listing the filedesc structure was
  heavly modified.

- The audit subsystem, kdump and procstat tools were updated to
  recognize new syscalls.

- Capability rights were revised and eventhough I tried hard to provide
  backward API and ABI compatibility there are some incompatible changes
  that are described in detail below:

	CAP_CREATE old behaviour:
	- Allow for openat(2)+O_CREAT.
	- Allow for linkat(2).
	- Allow for symlinkat(2).
	CAP_CREATE new behaviour:
	- Allow for openat(2)+O_CREAT.

	- Required if target of renameat(2) exists and will be removed by this
	  call.

	Removed CAP_MAPEXEC.

d27a56b062 Correct an error of omission in the implementation of the truncation
operation on POSIX shared memory objects and tmpfs.  Previously, neither of
these modules correctly handled the case in which the new size of the object
or file was not a multiple of the page size.  Specifically, they did not
handle partial page truncation of data stored on swap.  As a result, stale
data might later be returned to an application.

Interestingly, a data inconsistency was less likely to occur under tmpfs
than POSIX shared memory objects.  The reason being that a different mistake
by the tmpfs truncation operation helped avoid a data inconsistency.  If the
data was still resident in memory in a PG_CACHED page, then the tmpfs
truncation operation would reactivate that page, zero the truncated portion,
and leave the page pinned in memory.  More precisely, the benevolent error
was that the truncation operation didn't add the reactivated page to any of
the paging queues, effectively pinning the page.  This page would remain
pinned until the file was destroyed or the page was read or written.  With
this change, the page is now added to the inactive queue.

This change not only saves time by eliminating pointless calls to
pmap_remove_all(), but it also eliminates an inconsistency in the use of
pmap_remove_all() versus related functions, like pmap_remove_write().  It
eliminates harmless but pointless calls to pmap_remove_all() that were being

This commit adds compatibility macros, so existing code should still

fa686c638e Implement global and per-uid accounting of the anonymous memory. Add
rlimit RLIMIT_SWAP that limits the amount of swap that may be reserved
for the uid.

The accounting information (charge) is associated with either map entry,
or vm object backing the entry, assuming the object is the first one
in the shadow chain and entry does not require COW. Charge is moved
from entry to object on allocation of the object, e.g. during the mmap,
assuming the object is allocated, or on the first page fault on the
entry. It moves back to the entry on forks due to COW setup.

The per-entry granularity of accounting makes the charge process fair
for processes that change uid during lifetime, and decrements charge
for proper uid when region is unmapped.

The interface of vm_pager_allocate(9) is extended by adding struct ucred *,
that is used to charge appropriate uid when allocation if performed by
kernel, e.g. md(4).

Several syscalls, among them is fork(2), may now return ENOMEM when
global or per-uid limits are enforced.

411d068395 Rework the lifetime management of the kernel implementation of POSIX
semaphores.  Specifically, semaphores are now represented as new file
descriptor type that is set to close on exec.  This removes the need for
all of the manual process reference counting (and fork, exec, and exit
event handlers) as the normal file descriptor operations handle all of
that for us nicely.  It is also suggested as one possible implementation
in the spec and at least one other OS (OS X) uses this approach.

Some bugs that were fixed as a result include:
- References to a named semaphore whose name is removed still work after
  the sem_unlink() operation.  Prior to this patch, if a semaphore's name
  was removed, valid handles from sem_open() would get EINVAL errors from
  sem_getvalue(), sem_post(), etc.  This fixes that.
- Unnamed semaphores created with sem_init() were not cleaned up when a
  process exited or exec'd.  They were only cleaned up if the process
  did an explicit sem_destroy().  This could result in a leak of semaphore
  objects that could never be cleaned up.
- On the other hand, if another process guessed the id (kernel pointer to
  'struct ksem' of an unnamed semaphore (created via sem_init)) and had
  write access to the semaphore based on UID/GID checks, then that other
  process could manipulate the semaphore via sem_destroy(), sem_post(),
  sem_wait(), etc.
- As part of the permission check (UID/GID), the umask of the proces
  creating the semaphore was not honored.  Thus if your umask denied group
  read/write access but the explicit mode in the sem_init() call allowed
  it, the semaphore would be readable/writable by other users in the
  same group, for example.  This includes access via the previous bug.
- If the module refused to unload because there were active semaphores,
  then it might have deregistered one or more of the semaphore system
  calls before it noticed that there was a problem.  I'm not sure if
  this actually happened as the order that modules are discovered by the
  kernel linker depends on how the actual .ko file is linked.  One can
  make the order deterministic by using a single module with a mod_event
  handler that explicitly registers syscalls (and deregisters during
  unload after any checks).  This also fixes a race where even if the
  sem_module unloaded first it would have destroyed locks that the
  syscalls might be trying to access if they are still executing when
  they are unloaded.

  XXX: By the way, deregistering system calls doesn't do any blocking
  to drain any threads from the calls.
- Some minor fixes to errno values on error.  For example, sem_init()
  isn't documented to return ENFILE or EMFILE if we run out of semaphores
  the way that sem_open() can.  Instead, it should return ENOSPC in that
  case.

Other changes:
- Kernel semaphores now use a hash table to manage the namespace of
  named semaphores nearly in a similar fashion to the POSIX shared memory
  object file descriptors.  Kernel semaphores can now also have names
  longer than 14 chars (up to MAXPATHLEN) and can include subdirectories
  in their pathname.
- The UID/GID permission checks for access to a named semaphore are now
  done via vaccess() rather than a home-rolled set of checks.
- Now that kernel semaphores have an associated file object, the various
  MAC checks for POSIX semaphores accept both a file credential and an
  active credential.  There is also a new posixsem_check_stat() since it
  is possible to fstat() a semaphore file descriptor.
- A small set of regression tests (using the ksem API directly) is present
  in src/tools/regression/posixsem.

8cd9437636 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.
