9dec415fef Add the full module path name to the kld_file_stat structure 
for kldstat(2).

This allows libdtrace to determine the exact file from which
a kernel module was loaded without having to guess.

The kldstat(2) API is versioned with the size of the
kld_file_stat structure, so this change creates version 2.

Add the pathname to the verbose output of kldstat(8) too.

1c8d4bbe18 Change the C wrappers for mmap/lseek/pread/pwrite/truncate/ftruncate to 
call the pad-less versions of the corresponding syscalls if the running
kernel supports it.  Check kern.osreldate once per program and cache the
result to select the appropriate syscall.  This maintains userland
compatability with kernel.old's from quite a while back.

6f011a9012 Classify mmap, lseek, pread, pwrite, truncate, ftruncate as pseudo 
syscalls, unless WITHOUT_SYSCALL_COMPAT is defined.  The default case
will have the .c wrappers still.  If you define WITHOUT_SYSCALL_COMPAT,
the .c wrappers will go away and libc will make direct syscalls.

After 7-stable starts, the direct syscall method will be default.

39a9779535 Prefer "to be modified" over "to be opened for writing". 
This is quite tricky situation, because we allow to open a file with
O_RDONLY|O_TRUNC. O_TRUNC modifies a file, but we actually don't open
it for writing. EISDIR is also returned when we try to open a directory
O_RDONLY|O_TRUNC, which is correct.
POSIX says that "The result of using O_TRUNC with O_RDONLY is undefined.",
we choose to accept it (Solaris did the same), that's why "to be modified"
seems more accurate to me.

114d7f6536 Document that the documented 2GB mmap limit is actually a 
documentation bug.  We switched to page indexes some time around
FreeBSD 2.2.  The actual 'len' limit is the maximum file size or what
will fit in your address space, whichever comes first.  It should be
possible to make 1TB files on 32 bit systems, but of course address space
runs out long before then.

cf15cbb1b6 - Add two new system calls: preadv() and pwritev() which are like readv() 
and writev() except that they take an additional offset argument and do
  not change the current file position.  In SAT speak:
  preadv:readv::pread:read and pwritev:writev::pwrite:write.
- Try to reduce code duplication some by merging most of the old
  kern_foov() and dofilefoo() functions into new dofilefoo() functions
  that are called by kern_foov() and kern_pfoov().  The non-v functions
  now all generate a simple uio on the stack from the passed in arguments
  and then call kern_foov().  For example, read() now just builds a uio and
  calls kern_readv() and pwrite() just builds a uio and calls kern_pwritev().

3df381ba1a Back out previous commit. Even though statfs(2) can take a regular 
file as an argument, it may still fail for the same reasons that
open(2) can.

is a regular file, then the information for the file
system that the file lives on will be returned.

4bc282eb72 Clarify getfsstat(2) usage. 
The getfsstat(2) function expects a buffer and a count, and returns a count.

The confusing part is that the count it takes is a byte count, while the
return value is a count of the number of structures it has filled out.

Spell this out.
