When a thread is stopped in ptracestop(), the ptrace(2) user may request
a signal be delivered upon resumption of the thread. Heretofore, those signals
were discarded unless ptracestop()'s caller was issignal(). Fix this by
modifying ptracestop() to queue up signals requested by the ptrace user that
will be delivered when possible. Take special care when the signal is SIGKILL
(usually generated from a PT_KILL request); no new stop events should be
triggered after a PT_KILL.
Add a number of tests for the new functionality. Several tests were authored
by jhb.

target. Due to a way issignal() selects the next signal to deliver
and report, if the simultaneous or already pending another signal
exists, that signal might be reported by the next waitpid(2) call.
This causes minor annoyance for debuggers, which must be prepared to
take any signal as the first event, then filter SIGSTOP later.
More importantly, for tools like gcore(1), which attach and then
detach without processing events, SIGSTOP might leak to be delivered
after PT_DETACH. This results in the process being unintentionally
stopped after detach, which is fatal for automatic tools.
The solution is to force SIGSTOP to be the first signal reported after
the attach. Attach code is modified to set P2_PTRACE_FSTP to indicate
that the attaching ritual was not yet finished, and issignal() prefers
SIGSTOP in that condition. Also, the thread which handles
P2_PTRACE_FSTP is made to guarantee to own p_xthread during the first
waitpid(2). All that ensures that SIGSTOP is consumed first.
Additionally, if P2_PTRACE_FSTP is still set on detach, which means
that waitpid(2) was not called at all, SIGSTOP is removed from the
queue, ensuring that the process is resumed on detach.
In issignal(), when acting on STOPing signals, remove the signal from
queue before suspending. Otherwise parallel attach could result in
ptracestop() acting on that STOP as if it was the STOP signal from the
attach. Then SIGSTOP from attach leaks again.
As a minor refactoring, some bits of the common attach code is moved
to new helper proc_set_traced().

ptrace() now stores a mask of optional events in p_ptevents. Currently
this mask is a single integer, but it can be expanded into an array of
integers in the future.
Two new ptrace requests can be used to manipulate the event mask:
PT_GET_EVENT_MASK fetches the current event mask and PT_SET_EVENT_MASK
sets the current event mask.
The current set of events include:
- PTRACE_EXEC: trace calls to execve().
- PTRACE_SCE: trace system call entries.
- PTRACE_SCX: trace syscam call exits.
- PTRACE_FORK: trace forks and auto-attach to new child processes.
- PTRACE_LWP: trace LWP events.
The S_PT_SCX and S_PT_SCE events in the procfs p_stops flags have
been replaced by PTRACE_SCE and PTRACE_SCX. PTRACE_FORK replaces
P_FOLLOW_FORK and PTRACE_LWP replaces P2_LWP_EVENTS.
The PT_FOLLOW_FORK and PT_LWP_EVENTS ptrace requests remain for
compatibility but now simply toggle corresponding flags in the
event mask.
While here, document that PT_SYSCALL, PT_TO_SCE, and PT_TO_SCX both
modify the event mask and continue the traced process.

exiting (NOTE_EXIT->knlist_remove_inevent()), two things happen:
- knote kn_knlist pointer is reset
- INFLUX knote is removed from the process knlist.
And, there are two consequences:
- KN_LIST_UNLOCK() on such knote is nop
- there is nothing which would block exit1() from processing past the
knlist_destroy() (and knlist_destroy() resets knlist lock pointers).
Both consequences result either in leaked process lock, or
dereferencing NULL function pointers for locking.
Handle this by stopping embedding the process knlist into struct proc.
Instead, the knlist is allocated together with struct proc, but marked
as autodestroy on the zombie reap, by knlist_detach() function. The
knlist is freed when last kevent is removed from the list, in
particular, at the zombie reap time if the list is empty. As result,
the knlist_remove_inevent() is no longer needed and removed.
Other changes:
In filt_procattach(), clear NOTE_EXEC and NOTE_FORK desired events
from kn_sfflags for knote registered by kernel to only get NOTE_CHILD
notifications. The flags leak resulted in excessive
NOTE_EXEC/NOTE_FORK reports.
Fix immediate note activation in filt_procattach(). Condition should
be either the immediate CHILD_NOTE activation, or immediate NOTE_EXIT
report for the exiting process.
In knote_fork(), do not perform racy check for KN_INFLUX before kq
lock is taken. Besides being racy, it did not accounted for notes
just added by scan (KN_SCAN).

The allproc_lock lock used in the sysctl_kern_corefile function is initialized
in the procinit function which is called after setting sysctl values at boot.
That means if we set kern.corefile at boot we will be trying to use
lock with is uninitialized and machine will crash.
If we define kern.corefile as tunable instead of using CTFLAG_RWTUN we will
not call the sysctl_kern_corefile function and we will not use an uninitialized

Use the same scheme implemented to manage credentials.
Code needing to look at process's credentials (as opposed to thred's) is
provided with *_proc variants of relevant functions.
Places which possibly had to take the proc lock anyway still use the proc
pointer to access limits.
tdsigwakeup() increases the priority of the low-priority threads, to
give them a chance to be terminated timely. Also, kernel allows user
to signal kernel processes. The combined effect is that signalling
idle process bump a priority of the selected delivery thread, which
starts eating CPU.
Check for the delivery thread be an idle thread and do not raise its
priority then.
The signal delivery to the kernel threads must be opt-in feature.
Kernel thread should explicitely declare the ability to handle signals
directed to it. E.g., nfsd threads check for signal as an indication
of exit request.
Most threads do not handle signals at all, and queuing the signal to
them causes odd side-effects. Most innocent consequence is the memory
leak due to queued ksiginfo, which is never deleted from the sigqueue.
Code to prevent even queuing signals to the kernel threads is trivial,
but it requires careful examination of each call to kproc/kthread
creation to decide should the signalling be allowed. The commit is a
stop-gap measure which fixes the immediate case for now.

there is an environment variable which shall initialize the SYSCTL
during early boot. This works for all SYSCTL types both statically and
dynamically created ones, except for the SYSCTL NODE type and SYSCTLs
which belong to VNETs. A new flag, CTLFLAG_NOFETCH, has been added to
be used in the case a tunable sysctl has a custom initialisation
function allowing the sysctl to still be marked as a tunable. The
kernel SYSCTL API is mostly the same, with a few exceptions for some
special operations like iterating childrens of a static/extern SYSCTL
node. This operation should probably be made into a factored out
common macro, hence some device drivers use this. The reason for
changing the SYSCTL API was the need for a SYSCTL parent OID pointer
and not only the SYSCTL parent OID list pointer in order to quickly
generate the sysctl path. The motivation behind this patch is to avoid
parameter loading cludges inside the OFED driver subsystem. Instead of
adding special code to the OFED driver subsystem to post-load tunables
into dynamically created sysctls, we generalize this in the kernel.
Other changes:
- Corrected a possibly incorrect sysctl name from "hw.cbb.intr_mask"
to "hw.pcic.intr_mask".
- Removed redundant TUNABLE statements throughout the kernel.
- Some minor code rewrites in connection to removing not needed
TUNABLE statements.
- Added a missing SYSCTL_DECL().
- Wrapped two very long lines.
- Avoid malloc()/free() inside sysctl string handling, in case it is
called to initialize a sysctl from a tunable, hence malloc()/free() is
not ready when sysctls from the sysctl dataset are registered.
- Bumped FreeBSD version to indicate SYSCTL API change.
