First, update the return types of aio_return() and aio_waitcomplete() to
ssize_t.
POSIX requires aio_return() to return a ssize_t so that it can represent
all return values from read() and write(). aio_waitcomplete() should use
ssize_t for the same reason.
aio_return() has used ssize_t in <aio.h> since r31620 but the manpage and
system call entry were not updated. aio_waitcomplete() has always
returned int.
Note that this does not require new system call stubs as this is
effectively only an API change in how the compiler interprets the return
value.
Second, allow aio_nbytes values up to IOSIZE_MAX instead of just INT_MAX.
aio_read/write should now honor the same length limits as normal read/write.
Third, use longs instead of ints in the aio_return() and aio_waitcomplete()
system call functions so that the 64-bit size_t in the in-kernel aiocb
isn't truncated to 32-bits before being copied out to userland or
being returned.
Finally, a simple test has been added to verify the bounds checking on the
maximum read size from a file.
These entries should have never been present since they only exist for
compat with FreeBSD 6.x (and older) binaries. This was missed in r296572.
Technically this breaks the ABI by removing versioned symbols. However,
no binaries should be linked against these symbols. No release has
shipped with a header that contained a prototype for these functions.

do not participate in the global symbols namespace, but rtld locks are
still replaced and functions are interposed. In particular,
__pthread_map_stacks_exec is resolved to the libc version. If a
library is loaded later, which requires adjustment of the stack
protection mode, rtld calls into libc __pthread_map_stacks_exec due to
the symbols scope. The libc version might recurse into binder and
recursively acquire rtld bind lock, causing the hang.
Make libc __pthread_map_stacks_exec() interposed, which synchronizes
rtld locks and version of the stack exec hook when libthr loaded,
regardless of the symbol scope control or symbol resolution order.
The __pthread_map_stacks_exec() symbol is removed from the private
version in libthr since libc symbol now operates correctly in presence
of libthr.

wraps sendmsg(2) and recvmsg(2) into batch send and receive operation.
The goal of this implementation is only to provide API compatibility
with Linux.
The cancellation behaviour of the functions is not quite right, but
due to relative rare use of cancellation it is considered acceptable
comparing with the complexity of the correct implementation. If
functions are reimplemented as syscalls, the fix would come almost
trivial. The direct use of the syscall trampolines instead of libc
wrappers for sendmsg(2) and recvmsg(2) is to avoid data loss on
cancellation.

intended behaviour in its man page. Simplify tty_drain() to match.
Don't call ttydevsw methods in tty_flush() if the device is gone
since we now sometimes call it then.
The flushing was supposed to be implemented by passing the FNONBLOCK
flag to VOP_CLOSE() for revoke(). The tty driver is one of the few
that can block in close and was one of the fewer that knew about this.
This almost worked in FreeBSD-1 and similarly in Net/2. These
versions only almost worked because there was and is considerable
confusion between IO_NDELAY and FNONBLOCK (aka O_NONBLOCK). IO_NDELAY
is only valid for VOP_READ() and VOP_WRITE(). For other VOPs it has
the same value as O_SHLOCK. But since vfs_subr.c and tty.c
consistently used the wrong flag and the O_SHLOCK flag is rarely set,
this mostly worked. It also gave the feature than applications could
get the non-blocking close by abusing O_SHLOCK.
This was first broken then fixed in 1995. I changed only the tty
driver to use FNONBLOCK, as a hack to get non-blocking via the normal
flag FNONBLOCK for last closes. I didn't know about revoke()'s use
of IO_NDELAY or change it to be consistent, so revoke() was broken.
Then I changed revoke() to match.
This was next broken in 1997 then fixed in 1998. Importing Lite2 made
the flags inconsistent again by undoing the fix only in vfs_subr.c.
This was next broken in 2008 by replacing everything in tty.c and not
checking any flags in last close. Other bugs in draining limited the
resulting unbounded waits to drain in some cases.
It is now possible to fix this better using the new FREVOKE flag.
Just restore flushing for revoke() for now. Don't restore or undo any
hacks for ordinary last closes yet. But remove dead code in the
1-second relative timeout (r272789). This did extra work to extend
the buggy draining for revoke() for as long as possible. The 1-second
timeout made this not very long by usually flushing after 1 second.

up to now.
The new sendfile is the code that Netflix uses to send their multiple tens
of gigabits of data per second. The new implementation features asynchronous
I/O, when I/O operations are launched, but not awaited to be complete. An
explanation of why such behavior is beneficial compared to old one is
going to be too long for a commit message, so we will skip it here.
Additional features of new syscall are extra flags, which provide an
application more control over data sent. The SF_NOCACHE flag tells
kernel that data shouldn't be cached after it was sent. The SF_READAHEAD()
macro allows to specify readahead size in pages.
The new syscalls is a drop in replacement. No modifications are required
to applications. One can take nginx binary for stable/10 and run it
successfully on head. Although SF_NODISKIO lost its original sense, as now
sendfile doesn't block, and now means something completely different (tm),
using the new sendfile the old way is absolutely safe.

Depending on system configuration and parameters, clock_gettime() and
gettimeofday() may not be system calls. If so, passing an invalid pointer
will cause a signal and not an [EFAULT] error.
From a standards perspective, this is OK since passing an invalid pointer is
undefined behaviour.

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.

This removes the need for manually changing this flag for Google Chrome
users. It also improves compatibility with Linux applications running under
Linuxulator compatibility layer, and possibly also helps in porting software
from Linux.
Generally speaking, the flag allows applications to create the shared memory
segment, attach it, remove it, and then continue to use it and to reattach it
later. This means that the kernel will automatically "clean up" after the
application exits.
It could be argued that it's against POSIX. However, SUSv3 says this
about IPC_RMID: "Remove the shared memory identifier specified by shmid from
the system and destroy the shared memory segment and shmid_ds data structure
associated with it." From my reading, we break it in any case by deferring
removal of the segment until it's detached; we won't break it any more
by also deferring removal of the identifier.
This is the behaviour exhibited by Linux since... probably always, and
also by OpenBSD since the following commit:
revision 1.54
date: 2011/10/27 07:56:28; author: robert; state: Exp; lines: +3 -8;
Allow segments to be used even after they were marked for deletion with
the IPC_RMID flag.
This is permitted as an extension beyond the standards and this is similar
to what other operating systems like linux do.

Note that the mountlist manipulations are somewhat fragile, and not very
pretty. The reason for this is to avoid changing vfs_mountroot(), which
is (obviously) rather mission-critical, but not very well documented,
and thus hard to test properly. It might be possible to rework it to use
its own simple root mount mechanism instead of vfs_mountroot().
