Mainly focus on files that use BSD 2-Clause license, however the tool I
was using misidentified many licenses so this was mostly a manual - error
prone - task.
The Software Package Data Exchange (SPDX) group provides a specification
to make it easier for automated tools to detect and summarize well known
opensource licenses. We are gradually adopting the specification, noting
that the tags are considered only advisory and do not, in any way,
superceed or replace the license texts.
Move handling of these three pathconf() variables out of vop_stdpathconf()
and into devfs_pathconf() as TTY devices can only be devfs files. In
addition, only return settings for these three variables for devfs devices

Extend the ino_t, dev_t, nlink_t types to 64-bit ints. Modify
struct dirent layout to add d_off, increase the size of d_fileno
to 64-bits, increase the size of d_namlen to 16-bits, and change
the required alignment. Increase struct statfs f_mntfromname[] and
f_mntonname[] array length MNAMELEN to 1024.
ABI breakage is mitigated by providing compatibility using versioned
symbols, ingenious use of the existing padding in structures, and
by employing other tricks. Unfortunately, not everything can be
fixed, especially outside the base system. For instance, third-party
APIs which pass struct stat around are broken in backward and
forward incompatible ways.
Kinfo sysctl MIBs ABI is changed in backward-compatible way, but
there is no general mechanism to handle other sysctl MIBS which
return structures where the layout has changed. It was considered
that the breakage is either in the management interfaces, where we
usually allow ABI slip, or is not important.
Struct xvnode changed layout, no compat shims are provided.
For struct xtty, dev_t tty device member was reduced to uint32_t.
It was decided that keeping ABI compat in this case is more useful
than reporting 64-bit dev_t, for the sake of pstat.
Update note: strictly follow the instructions in UPDATING. Build
and install the new kernel with COMPAT_FREEBSD11 option enabled,
then reboot, and only then install new world.

Right now the noexec mount option disallows image activators to try
execve the files on the mount point. Also, after r127187, noexec
also limits max_prot map entries permissions for mappings of files
from such mounts, but not the actual mapping permissions.
As result, the API behaviour is inconsistent. The files from noexec
mount can be mapped with PROT_EXEC, but if mprotect(2) drops execution
permission, it cannot be re-enabled later. Make this consistent
logically and aligned with behaviour of other systems, by disallowing
PROT_EXEC for mmap(2).
Note that this change only ensures aligned results from mmap(2) and
mprotect(2), it does not prevent actual code execution from files
coming from noexec mount. Such files can always be read into
anonymous executable memory and executed from there.

Issue is that boottime* should be adjusted from tc_windup(), which
requires them to be members of the timehands structure. As a
preparation, this commit only introduces the interface.
Some uses of boottime were found doubtful, e.g. NLM uses boottime to
identify the system boot instance. Arguably the identity should not
change on the leap second adjustment, but the commit is about the

logic is now placed in the mmap hook implementation rather than requiring
it to be placed in sys/vm/vm_mmap.c. This hook allows new file types to
support mmap() as well as potentially allowing mmap() for existing file
types that do not currently support any mapping.
The vm_mmap() function is now split up into two functions. A new
vm_mmap_object() function handles the "back half" of vm_mmap() and accepts
a referenced VM object to map rather than a (handle, handle_type) tuple.
vm_mmap() is now reduced to converting a (handle, handle_type) tuple to a
a VM object and then calling vm_mmap_object() to handle the actual mapping.
The vm_mmap() function remains for use by other parts of the kernel
(e.g. device drivers and exec) but now only supports mapping vnodes,
character devices, and anonymous memory.
The mmap() system call invokes vm_mmap_object() directly with a NULL object
for anonymous mappings. For mappings using a file descriptor, the
descriptors fo_mmap() hook is invoked instead. The fo_mmap() hook is
responsible for performing type-specific checks and adjustments to
arguments as well as possibly modifying mapping parameters such as flags
or the object offset. The fo_mmap() hook routines then call
vm_mmap_object() to handle the actual mapping.
The fo_mmap() hook is optional. If it is not set, then fo_mmap() will
fail with ENODEV. A fo_mmap() hook is implemented for regular files,
character devices, and shared memory objects (created via shm_open()).
While here, consistently use the VM_PROT_* constants for the vm_prot_t
type for the 'prot' variable passed to vm_mmap() and vm_mmap_object()
as well as the vm_mmap_vnode() and vm_mmap_cdev() helper routines.
Previously some places were using the mmap()-specific PROT_* constants
instead. While this happens to work because PROT_xx == VM_PROT_xx,
using VM_PROT_* is more correct.

Currently we update timestamps unconditionally when doing read or

set to non-zero value when the old behavior is desirable.

Before this change path matching had the following features:
- for device nodes the patterns were matched against full path
- in the above case '/' in a path could be matched by a wildcard
- for directories and links only the last component was matched
So, for example, a pattern like 're*' could match the following entries:
- re0 device
- responder/u0 device
- zvol/recpool directory
Although it was possible to work around this behavior (once it was spotted
and understood), it was very confusing and contrary to documentation.
Now we always match a full path for all types of devfs entries (devices,
directories, links) and a '/' has to be matched explicitly.
This behavior follows the shell globbing rules.
This change is originally developed by Jaakko Heinonen.
Many thanks!
