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.

The EABI unwind info requires a .fnend for every .fnstart, and newer
binutils will complain about seeing two .fnstart in a row. This change
allows newer tools to compile our code.

Stop using __FreeBSD_ARCH_armv6__ and switch to __ARM_ARCH >= 6 in the
couple of places in tree. clang already implements ACLE. Add a define
that says we implement version 1.1, even though the implementation
isn't quite complete.
handling. For statically linked apps this uses the __exidx_start/end
symbols set up by the linker. For dynamically linked apps it finds the
shared object that contains the given address and returns the location and
size of the exidx section in that shared object.
The dl_unwind_find_exidx() name is used by other BSD projects and Android,
and is mentioned in clang 3.5 comments as "the BSD interface" for finding
exidx data. GCC (in libgcc_s) expects the exact same API and functionality
to be provided by a function named __gnu_Unwind_Find_exidx(), so we provide
that with an alias ("strong reference").

This targets the existing ARMv6 and ARMv7 SoCs that contain a VFP unit.
This is an optional coprocessors may not be present in all devices, however
it appears to be in all current SoCs we support.
armv6hf targets the VFP variant of the ARM EABI and our copy of gcc is too
old to support this. Because of this there are a number of WITH/WITHOUT
options that are unsupported and must be left as the default value. The
options and their required value are:
* WITH_ARM_EABI
* WITHOUT_GCC
* WITHOUT_GNUCXX
In addition, without an external toolchain, the following need to be left
as their default:
* WITH_CLANG
* WITH_CLANG_IS_CC
As there is a different method of passing float and double values to
functions the ABI is incompatible with existing armv6 binaries. To use
this a full rebuild of world is required. Because no floating point values
are passed into the kernel an armv6 kernel with VFP enabled will work with
an armv6hf userland and vice versa.

lib/libc using a reach-over makefile.
A typical use-case is to build a standard ILP32 version and a COMPAT32
version in a single iteration by building the COMPAT32 version using a
reach-over makefile.

Store/restore the VFP registers in setjmp/longjmp on ARM EABI if VFP is
enabled in the kernel. It checks the hw.floatingpoint sysctl to see if
floating-point is available and uses this to determine if it should store
them. If it does it uses a different magic value so longjmp is able to know
if it should load them.
with merge the functions but leave out the code to save/load the VFP
registers as that requires other changes to ensure the VFP is enabled
first.
This removes storing the old fpa registers. These were never fully
supported, and the only user of this code I can find have moved to newer
CPUs which use a VFP.
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].

this is not a problem as they are resolved by libgcc. The exception is for
the __aeabi_mem* functions. These call back into libc to the appropriate
function. This causes issues for static binaries as we only link against
libc once so there is no way for it to call into libgcc and back.
The fix for this is to include these symbols in libc but keep them hidden
so binaries use the libgcc version.
but use normal references instead of weak. This makes the statically
linked binaries to use fast gettimeofday(2) by forcing the linker to
