to construct the full pathname. It starts to search at the default
mountpoint which is /dev/shm. If this fails it runs through fstab
and searches for shmfs and tmpfs. Whatever it finds will be
statfs()'ed to be checked for Linux' fs magic for shmfs (0x01021994).
Ideally our tmpfs should deliver this fs magic to Linux processes, but
as our tmpfs is considered to be an experimental feature we can not
assume that there is always a tmpfs available.
To make shared memory work in the Linuxulator, force the fs type of
/dev/shm (which can be a symlink) to match what Linux expects. The user
is responsible (info has to be added to the linux base ports and the docs)
to setup a suitable link for /dev/shm.

X-MFC: together with r215664

end with the output of "Killed" and exit code 137.
This is caused by:
1. After calling exec() in multithreaded linux program threads are not
destroyed and continue running. They get killed after program being
executed finishes.
2. linux_exit_group doesn't return correct exit code when called not
from group leader. Which happens regularly using sun jvm.
The submitters fix this in a similar way to how NetBSD handles this.

to correct ones and forward those to the USB layer. Port enabling

A nice thing about POSIX 2008 is that it finally standardizes a way to
obtain file access/modification/change times in sub-second precision,
namely using struct timespec, which we already have for a very long
time. Unfortunately POSIX uses different names.
This commit adds compatibility macros, so existing code should still
build properly. Also change all source code in the kernel to work
without any of the compatibility macros. This makes it all a less
ambiguous.
I am also renaming st_birthtime to st_birthtim, even though it was a
local extension anyway. It seems Cygwin also has a st_birthtim.
According to POSIX open() must return ENOTDIR when the path name does
not refer to a path name. Change vn_open() to respect this flag. This
also simplifies the Linuxolator a bit.

Add video clipping support but with the caveats below.
Background info:
Video clipping allows the user to provide either a series of clip rectangles
or a clip bitmap to the driver and have the driver mask the video according
to the clipping specs provided.
Adding support for clipping to the FreeBSD Linux emulator is problematic
because it seems that this feature is not supported by many drivers and
therefore it is ignored by many applications. Unfortunately, when not
using it, rather than passing in a null clipping list, some apps leave the
clipping fields uninitialized, casuing random values to be passed in. In
the case where the driver does not use the clipping info, this is not a
problem (although it is bad form). But the Linux emulator does not know
which drivers will use this and which won't, so the Linux emulator must
try to handle this clip list, and deal gracefully with cases where the
values seem to be uninitialized.
Video clipping info is passed in using the VIDIOCSWIN ioctl in two fields
in the video_window structure: the integer clipcount and the pointer clips.
How the linuxulator handles this from this commit on:
* if (clipcount == VIDEO_CLIP_BITMAP)
The clips variable is a void * pointer to a 128*625 byte
(1024*625 bit) memory area containing a bitmap of the clipping area.
The pointer in the video_window structure is copied, but no
video_clip structures are copied.
* if (clipcount > 0 && clipcount <= 16384)
The clips variable is pointer to a list of video_clip structures. Up
to clipcount structures are copied and passed to the driver.
The upper limit of 16384 was imposed here so that user code that does
not properly initialize clipcount falls through below and no attempt
is made to copy an uninitialized list. This value was found by
examining Linux drivers that support the clip list.
* else
The clipcount is either negative (but not VIDEO_CLIP_BITMAP), zero or
positive (> 16384).
All these cases are treated as invalid data. Both the clipcount field
and clips pointer are forced to zero/NULL and passed to the driver.
It should be noted that, at the time of developing this V4L emulator code,
the pwc(4) V4L driver does not support clipping.

When renaming a directory it passes through several intermediate
states. First its new name will be created causing it to have two
names (from possibly different parents). Next, if it has different
parents, its value of ".." will be changed from pointing to the old
parent to pointing to the new parent. Concurrently, its old name
will be removed bringing it back into a consistent state. When fsck
encounters an extra name for a directory, it offers to remove the
"extraneous hard link"; when it finds that the names have been
changed but the update to ".." has not happened, it offers to rewrite
".." to point at the correct parent. Both of these changes were
considered unexpected so would cause fsck in preen mode or fsck in
background mode to fail with the need to run fsck manually to fix
these problems. Fsck running in preen mode or background mode now
corrects these expected inconsistencies that arise during directory
rename. The functionality added with this update is used by fsck
running in background mode to make these fixes.
Solution:
This update adds three new fsck sysctl commands to support background
fsck in correcting expected inconsistencies that arise from incomplete
directory rename operations. They are:
setcwd(dirinode) - set the current directory to dirinode in the
filesystem associated with the snapshot.
setdotdot(oldvalue, newvalue) - Verify that the inode number for ".."
in the current directory is oldvalue then change it to newvalue.
unlink(nameptr, oldvalue) - Verify that the inode number associated
with nameptr in the current directory is oldvalue then unlink it.
As with all other fsck sysctls, these new ones may only be used by
processes with appropriate priviledge.
