madvise(2) except that it operates on a file descriptor instead of a
memory region. It is currently only supported on regular files.
Just as with madvise(2), the advice given to posix_fadvise(2) can be
divided into two types. The first type provide hints about data access
patterns and are used in the file read and write routines to modify the
I/O flags passed down to VOP_READ() and VOP_WRITE(). These modes are
thus filesystem independent. Note that to ease implementation (and
since this API is only advisory anyway), only a single non-normal
range is allowed per file descriptor.
The second type of hints are used to hint to the OS that data will or
will not be used. These hints are implemented via a new VOP_ADVISE().
A default implementation is provided which does nothing for the WILLNEED
request and attempts to move any clean pages to the cache page queue for
the DONTNEED request. This latter case required two other changes.
First, a new V_CLEANONLY flag was added to vinvalbuf(). This requests
vinvalbuf() to only flush clean buffers for the vnode from the buffer
cache and to not remove any backing pages from the vnode. This is
used to ensure clean pages are not wired into the buffer cache before
attempting to move them to the cache page queue. The second change adds
a new vm_object_page_cache() method. This method is somewhat similar to
vm_object_page_remove() except that instead of freeing each page in the
specified range, it attempts to move clean pages to the cache queue if
possible.
To preserve the ABI of struct file, the f_cdevpriv pointer is now reused
in a union to point to the currently active advice region if one is
present for regular files.

A "process descriptor" file descriptor is used to manage processes
without using the PID namespace. This is required for Capsicum's
Capability Mode, where the PID namespace is unavailable.
New system calls pdfork(2) and pdkill(2) offer the functional equivalents
of fork(2) and kill(2). pdgetpid(2) allows querying the PID of the remote
process for debugging purposes. The currently-unimplemented pdwait(2) will,
in the future, allow querying rusage/exit status. In the interim, poll(2)
may be used to check (and wait for) process termination.
When a process is referenced by a process descriptor, it does not issue
SIGCHLD to the parent, making it suitable for use in libraries---a common
scenario when using library compartmentalisation from within large
applications (such as web browsers). Some observers may note a similarity
to Mach task ports; process descriptors provide a subset of this behaviour,
but in a UNIX style.
This feature is enabled by "options PROCDESC", but as with several other
Capsicum kernel features, is not enabled by default in GENERIC 9.0.

kernel for FreeBSD 9.0:
Add a new capability mask argument to fget(9) and friends, allowing system
call code to declare what capabilities are required when an integer file
descriptor is converted into an in-kernel struct file *. With options
CAPABILITIES compiled into the kernel, this enforces capability
protection; without, this change is effectively a no-op.
Some cases require special handling, such as mmap(2), which must preserve
information about the maximum rights at the time of mapping in the memory
map so that they can later be enforced in mprotect(2) -- this is done by
narrowing the rights in the existing max_protection field used for similar
purposes with file permissions.
In namei(9), we assert that the code is not reached from within capability
mode, as we're not yet ready to enforce namespace capabilities there.
This will follow in a later commit.
Update two capability names: CAP_EVENT and CAP_KEVENT become
CAP_POST_KEVENT and CAP_POLL_KEVENT to more accurately indicate what they
