use vrele() instead of vput() on the parent directory vnode returned
by namei() in the case where it is equal to the target vnode. This
handles namei()'s somewhat strange (but documented) behaviour of
not locking either vnode when the two vnodes are equal and LOCKPARENT
but not LOCKLEAF is specified.
Note that since a vnode double-unlock is not currently fatal, these
coding errors were effectively harmless.

malloc and mbuf allocation all not requiring Giant.
1) ostat, fstat and nfstat don't need Giant until they call fo_stat.
2) accept can copyin the address length without grabbing Giant.
3) sendit doesn't need Giant, so don't bother grabbing it until kern_sendit.
4) move Giant grabbing from each indivitual recv* syscall to recvit.
support routines in kern_acl.c:
- Define ACL_OVERRIDE_MASK and ACL_PRESERVE_MASK centrally in acl.h: the
mode bits that are (and aren't) stored in the ACL.
- Add acl_posix1e_acl_to_mode(): given a POSIX.1e extended ACL, generate
a compatibility mode (only the bits supported by the POSIX.1e ACL).
- acl_posix1e_newfilemode(): Given a requested creation mode and default
ACL, calculate the mode for the new file system object (only the bits
supported by the POSIX.1e ACL).

another thread. We use the td_oncpu member of the other field to locate
it's associated CPU and then search the that CPU's list of spin locks
contained in its per-CPU data. This is not always safe and may in fact
panic or just not work, but it is useful in at least one case.

descriptor as ready for write. This in turns causes libc_r, for
one, to busy wait in such cases.
Note: it is a quick performance fix, a more complex fix might be
required in case this turns out to have unexpected side effects.

a long-standing mistake in the way a portion of a pipe's KVA is
allocated. Specifically, kmem_alloc_pageable() is inappropriate
for use in the "direct" case because it allows a preceding vm map entry
and vm object to be extended to support the new KVA allocation.
However, the direct case KVA allocation should not have a backing
vm object. This is corrected by using kmem_alloc_nofault().

kern.file sysctl, don't return information about processes that
fail p_cansee(td, p). This prevents sockstat and related
programs from seeing file descriptors owned by processes not
in the same jail as the thread, as well as having implications
for MAC, etc.
This is a partial solution: it permits an information leak about
the number of descriptors in the sizing calculation (but this is
not new information, you can also get it from kern.openfiles),
and doesn't attempt to mask file descriptors based on the
properties of the descriptor, only the process referencing it.
However, it provides most of what you want under most
circumstances, without complicating the locking.

do not clear the `sb_sel' member of the sockbuf structure
while invalidating the receive sockbuf in sorflush(), called
from soshutdown().
The panic was reproduceable from user land by attaching a knote
with EVFILT_READ filters to a socket, disabling further reads
from it using shutdown(2), and then closing it. knote_remove()
was called to remove all knotes from the socket file descriptor
by detaching each using its associated filterops' detach call-
back function, sordetach() in this case, which tried to remove
itself from the invalidated sockbuf's klist (sb_sel.si_note).

When a signal is being delivered to process, first find a sigwait
thread to deliver, POSIX's argument is speed of delivering signal
to sigwait thread is faster than other ways. A signal in its wait
set will cause sigwait to return the signal number, a signal not
in its wait set but in not blocked by the thread also causes sigwait
to return, but sigwait returns EINTR, sigwait is oneshot operation,
only one signal can be delivered to its wait set, when a signal is
delivered to the sigwait thread, the thread's sigwait state is canceled.

1. There was a race condition between a thread unlocking
a umtx and the thread contesting it. If the unlocking
thread won the race it may try to wakeup a thread that
was not yet in msleep(). The contesting thread would then
go to sleep to await a wakeup that would never come. It's
not possible to close the race by using a lock because
calls to casuptr() may have to fault a page in from swap.
Instead, the race was closed by introducing a flag that
the unlocking thread will set when waking up a thread.
The contesting thread will check for this flag before
going to sleep. For now the flag is kept in td_flags,
but it may be better to use some other member or create
a new one because of the possible performance/contention
issues of having to own sched_lock. Thanks to jhb for
pointing me in the right direction on this one.
2. Once a umtx was contested all future locks and unlocks
were happening in the kernel, regardless of whether it
was contested or not. To prevent this from happening,
when a thread locks a umtx it checks the queue for that
umtx and unsets the contested bit if there are no other
threads waiting on it. Again, this is slightly more
complicated than it needs to be because we can't hold
a lock across casuptr(). So, the thread has to check
the queue again after unseting the bit, and reset the
contested bit if it finds that another thread has put
itself on the queue in the mean time.
3. Remove the if... block for unlocking an uncontested
umtx, and replace it with a KASSERT. The _only_ time
a thread should be unlocking a umtx in the kernel is
if it is contested.
