This commit includes the following changes:
1) Old-style (pr_usrreq()) protocols are no longer supported, the compatibility
glue for them is deleted, and the kernel will panic on boot if any are compiled
in.
2) Certain protocol entry points are modified to take a process structure,
so they they can easily tell whether or not it is possible to sleep, and
also to access credentials.
3) SS_PRIV is no more, and with it goes the SO_PRIVSTATE setsockopt()
call. Protocols should use the process pointer they are now passed.
4) The PF_LOCAL and PF_ROUTE families have been updated to use the new
style, as has the `raw' skeleton family.
5) PF_LOCAL sockets now obey the process's umask when creating a socket
in the filesystem.
As a result, LINT is now broken. I'm hoping that some enterprising hacker
with a bit more time will either make the broken bits work (should be
easy for netipx) or dike them out.
processes using AF_LOCAL sockets. This hack is going to be used with
Secure RPC to duplicate a feature of STREAMS which has no real counterpart
in sockets (with STREAMS/TLI, you can apparently use t_getinfo() to learn
UID of a local process on the other side of a transport endpoint).
What happens is this: the client sets up a sendmsg() call with ancillary
data using the SCM_CREDS socket-level control message type. It does not
need to fill in the structure. When the kernel notices the data,
unp_internalize() fills in the cmesgcred structure with the sending
process' credentials (UID, EUID, GID, and ancillary groups). This data
is later delivered to the receiving process. The receiver can then
perform the follwing tests:
- Did the client send ancillary data?
o Yes, proceed.
o No, refuse to authenticate the client.
- The the client send data of type SCM_CREDS?
o Yes, proceed.
o No, refuse to authenticate the client.
- Is the cmsgcred structure the right size?
o Yes, proceed.
o No, signal a possible error.
The receiver can now inspect the credential information and use it to
authenticate the client.
all of the configurables and instrumentation related to
inter-process communication mechanisms. Some variables,
like mbuf statistics, are instrumented here for the first
time.
For mbuf statistics: also keep track of m_copym() and
m_pullup() failures, and provide for the user's inspection
the compiled-in values of MSIZE, MHLEN, MCLBYTES, and MINCLSIZE.

without the appropriate Lite/2 userland changes.
The system boots and can mount UFS filesystems.
Untested: ext2fs, msdosfs, NFS
Known problems: Incorrect Berkeley ID strings in some files.
Mount_std mounts will not work until the getfsent

This will make a number of things easier in the future, as well as (finally!)
avoiding the Id-smashing problem which has plagued developers for so long.
Boy, I'm glad we're not using sup anymore. This update would have been
insane otherwise.

the future it might be good to increase this to 16k. PIPSIZ is now

to `localdomain' since AF_LOCAL is now the preferred name of this family.
Declare netisr correctly and in the right place.
