changes in r246417 were incomplete as they did not add explicit calls to
sigdeferstop() around all the places that previously passed SBDRY to
_sleep(). In addition, nfs_getcacheblk() could trigger a write RPC from
getblk() resulting in sigdeferstop() recursing. Rather than manually
deferring stop signals in specific places, change the VFS_*() and VOP_*()
methods to defer stop signals for filesystems which request this behavior
via a new VFCF_SBDRY flag. Note that this has to be a VFC flag rather than
a MNTK flag so that it works properly with VFS_MOUNT() when the mount is
not yet fully constructed. For now, only the NFS clients are set this new
flag in VFS_SET().
A few other related changes:
- Add an assertion to ensure that TDF_SBDRY doesn't leak to userland.
- When a lookup request uses VOP_READLINK() to follow a symlink, mark
the request as being on behalf of the thread performing the lookup
(cnp_thread) rather than using a NULL thread pointer. This causes
NFS to properly handle signals during this VOP on an interruptible
mount.

until child performs exec(). The behaviour is reasonable when a
debugger is the real parent, because the parent is stopped until
exec(), and sending a debugging event to the debugger would deadlock
both parent and child.
On the other hand, when debugger is not the parent of the vforked
child, not sending debugging signals makes it impossible to debug
across vfork.
Fix the issue by declining generating debug signals only when vfork()
was done and child called ptrace(PT_TRACEME). Set a new process flag
P_PPTRACE from the attach code for PT_TRACEME, if P_PPWAIT flag is
set, which indicates that the process was created with vfork() and
still did not execed. Check P_PPTRACE from issignal(), instead of
refusing the trace outright for the P_PPWAIT case. The scope of
P_PPTRACE is exactly contained in the scope of P_PPWAIT.

195702, 195703, and 195821 prevented a thread from suspending while holding
locks inside of NFS by forcing the thread to fail sleeps with EINTR or
ERESTART but defer the thread suspension to the user boundary. However,
this had the effect that stopping a process during an NFS request could
abort the request and trigger EINTR errors that were visible to userland
processes (previously the thread would have suspended and completed the
request once it was resumed).
This change instead effectively masks stop signals while in the NFS client.
It uses the existing TDF_SBDRY flag to effect this since SIGSTOP cannot
be masked directly. Also, instead of setting PBDRY on individual sleeps,
the NFS client now sets the TDF_SBDRY flag around each NFS request and
stop signals are masked for all sleeps during that region (the previous
change missed sleeps in lockmgr locks). The end result is that stop
signals sent to threads performing an NFS request are completely
ignored until after the NFS request has finished processing and the
thread prepares to return to userland. This restores the behavior of
stop signals being transparent to userland processes while still
preventing threads from suspending while holding NFS locks.

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.
