NCARGS isn't a limit on the number of arguments to pass to a function,
but the number of bytes that can be consumed by arguments to exec. As
such, it is not suitable for a limit on the count of arguments passed
to makecontext().

Mainly focus on files that use BSD 2-Clause license, however the tool I
was using mis-identified many licenses so this was mostly a manual - error

The Software Package Data Exchange (SPDX) group provides a specification
to make it easier for automated tools to detect and summarize well known
opensource licenses. We are gradually adopting the specification, noting
that the tags are considered only advisory and do not, in any way,
superceed or replace the license texts.

initial value of PSEUDO is the same in all cases so reduce duplication
(and hopefully, future merge conflicts) by machine independent defaults.

We have an nitems() macro in the <sys/param.h> header that is
convenient to re-use as it makes things easier to read.
Given that it is available already without adding additional
headers and other parts of libc already use it, extend a bit
more its use.
i386 stopped exporting .cerror in r240152, and likewise for amd64 in
r240178. It is not used by other libraries on any platform, so apply
the same change to the remaining architectures.

pwrite(2) syscalls are wrapped to provide compatibility with pre-7.x
kernels which required padding before the off_t parameter. The
fcntl(2) contains compatibility code to handle kernels before the
struct flock was changed during the 8.x CURRENT development. The
shims were reasonable to allow easier revert to the older kernel at
that time.
Now, two or three major releases later, shims do not serve any
purpose. Such old kernels cannot handle current libc, so revert the
compatibility code.
Make padded syscalls support conditional under the COMPAT6 config
option. For COMPAT32, the syscalls were under COMPAT6 already.
Remove WITHOUT_SYSCALL_COMPAT build option, which only purpose was to
(partially) disable the removed shims.

This should also save and restore non-volatile Altivec registers, but that
needs to wait on solving two problems:
1. Adding the nonvolatile vector registers means we need 5 more than _JBLEN
entries in jmp_buf on 32-bit targets (64-bit is OK).
2. Need to figure out how to determine if saving/restoring vector regs
is supported on the current CPU from userland.

check_deferred_signal() returns twice, since handle_signal() emulates
the return from the normal signal handler by sigreturn(2)ing the
passed context. Second return is performed on the destroyed stack
frame, because __fillcontextx() has already returned. This causes
undefined and bad behaviour, usually the victim thread gets SIGSEGV.
Avoid nested frame and the need to return from it by doing direct call
to getcontext() in the check_deferred_signal() and using a new private
libc helper __fillcontextx2() to complement the context with the
extended CPU state if the deferred signal is still present.
The __fillcontextx() is now unused, but is kept to allow older
libthr.so to be used with the new libc.
Mark __fillcontextx() as returning twice [1].

working MI one. The MI one only needs to be overridden on machines
with non-IEEE754 arithmetic. (The last supported one was the VAX.)
It can also be overridden if someone comes up with a faster one that
actually passes the regression tests -- but this is harder than it sounds.
Looking at our source code history, it seems the uname(),
getdomainname() and setdomainname() system calls got deprecated
somewhere after FreeBSD 1.1, but they have never been phased out
properly. Because we don't have a COMPAT_FREEBSD1, just use
COMPAT_FREEBSD4.
Also fix the Linuxolator to build without the setdomainname() routine by
just making it call userland_sysctl on kern.domainname. Also replace the
setdomainname()'s implementation to use this approach, because we're
duplicating code with sysctl_domainname().
I wasn't able to keep these three routines working in our
COMPAT_FREEBSD32, because that would require yet another keyword for
syscalls.master (COMPAT4+NOPROTO). Because this routine is probably
unused already, this won't be a problem in practice. If it turns out to
be a problem, we'll just restore this functionality.
