The type definitions and constants that were used by COMPAT_CLOUDABI64
are a literal copy of some headers stored inside of CloudABI's C
library, cloudlibc. What is annoying is that we can't make use of
cloudlibc's system call list, as the format is completely different and
doesn't provide enough information. It had to be synced in manually.
We recently decided to solve this (and some other problems) by moving
the ABI definitions into a separate file:
https://github.com/NuxiNL/cloudabi/blob/master/cloudabi.txt
This file is processed by a pile of Python scripts to generate the
header files like before, documentation (markdown), but in our case more
importantly: a FreeBSD system call table.
This change discards the old files in sys/contrib/cloudabi and replaces
them by the latest copies, which requires some minor changes here and
there. Because cloudabi.txt also enforces consistent names of the system
call arguments, we have to patch up a small number of system call
implementations to use the new argument names.
The new header files can also be included directly in FreeBSD kernel
space without needing any includes/defines, so we can now remove
cloudabi_syscalldefs.h and cloudabi64_syscalldefs.h. Patch up the
sources to include the definitions directly from sys/contrib/cloudabi
instead.
These are no longer needed after the recent 'beforebuild: depend' changes
and hooking DIRDEPS_BUILD into a subset of FAST_DEPEND which supports
skipping 'make depend'.

Add two new functions, sysdecode_abi_to_freebsd_errno() and
sysdecode_freebsd_to_abi_errno(), which convert errno values between
the native FreeBSD ABI and other supported ABIs. Note that the
mappings are not necessarily perfect meaning in some cases multiple
errors in one ABI might map to a single error in another ABI. In that
case, the reverse mapping will return one of the errors that maps, but
which error is non-deterministic.
Change truss to always report the raw error value to the user but
use libsysdecode to map it to a native errno value that can be used
with strerror() to generate a description. Previously truss reported
the "converted" error value. Now the user will always see the exact
error value that the application sees.
Change kdump to report the truly raw error value to the user. Previously
kdump would report the absolute value of the raw error value (so for
Linux binaries it didn't output the FreeBSD error value, but the positive
value of the Linux error). Now it reports the real (i.e. negative) error
value for Linux binaries. Also, use libsysdecode to convert the native
FreeBSD error reported in the ktrace record to the raw error used by the
ABI. This means that the Linux ABI can now be handled directly in
ktrsysret() and removes the need for linux_ktrsysret().

A new sysdecode_syscallname() function accepts a system call code and
returns a string of the corresponding name (or NULL if the code is
unknown). To support different process ABIs, the new function accepts a
value from a new sysdecode_abi enum as its first argument to select the
ABI in use. Current ABIs supported include FREEBSD (native binaries),
FREEBSD32, LINUX, LINUX32, and CLOUDABI64. Note that not all ABIs are
supported by all platforms. In general, a given ABI is only supported
if a platform can execute binaries for that ABI.
To simplify the implementation, libsysdecode's build reuses the
existing pre-generated files from the kernel source tree rather than
duplicating new copies of said files during the build.
kdump(1) and truss(1) now use these functions to map system call
identifiers to names. For kdump(1), a new 'syscallname()' function
consolidates duplicated code from ktrsyscall() and ktrsyscallret().
The Linux ABI no longer requires custom handling for ktrsyscall() and
linux_ktrsyscall() has been removed as a result.

sysdecode_ioctlname() function. This function matches the behavior
of the truss variant in that it returns a pointer to a string description
for known ioctls. The caller is responsible for displaying unknown
ioctl requests. For kdump this meant moving the logic to handle unknown
ioctl requests out of the generated function and into an ioctlname()
function in kdump.c instead.

system call information such as system call arguments. Initially this
will consist of pulling duplicated code out of truss and kdump though it
may prove useful for other utilities in the future.
This commit moves the shared utrace(2) record parser out of kdump into
the library and updates kdump and truss to use it. One difference from
the previous version is that the library version treats unknown events
that start with the "RTLD" signature as unknown events. This simplifies
the interface and allows the consumer to decide how to handle all
non-recognized events. Instead, this function only generates a string
description for known malloc() and RTLD records.
