The core kernel part is patch file utimes.2008.4.diff from
pluknet@FreeBSD.org. I updated the code for API changes, added the manual
page and added compatibility code for old kernels. There is also audit and
Capsicum support.
A new UTIME_* constant might allow setting birthtimes in future.

Some users build FreeBSD as non-root in Perforce workspaces. By default,
Perforce sets files read-only unless they're explicitly being edited.
As a result, the -f argument must be used to cp in order to override the
read-only flag when copying source files to object directories. Bare use of
'cp' should be avoided in the future.
Update all current users of 'cp' in the src tree.

EXP_REDIR was supposed to generate pathnames in redirection if exactly one

is unlikely this will be implemented.
No functional change is intended.

Commands like 'export -p', 'set' and 'trap', and tracing enabled via 'set
-x' generate output suitable as shell input by adding quotes as necessary.
If there are control characters other than newline or invalid UTF-8
sequences, use $'...' and \OOO to display them safely.
The resulting output is not parsable by a strict POSIX.1-2008 shell but sh
from FreeBSD 9.0 and newer and many other shells can parse it.
feature is to quisce the system before suspend.
Stop is implemented by reusing the thread_single(9) with the special
mode SINGLE_ALLPROC. SINGLE_ALLPROC differs from the existing
single-threading modes by allowing (requiring) caller to operate on
other process. Interruptible sleeps for !TDF_SBDRY threads are
suspended like SIGSTOP does it, instead of aborting the sleep, like
SINGLE_NO_EXIT, to avoid spurious EINTRs on resume.
Provide debugging sysctl debug.stop_all_proc, which causes total stop
and suspends syncer, while waiting for variable reset for resume. It
is used for debugging; should be removed after the real use of the
interface is added.

Per Austin Group issue #459, shifting zero positional parameters may or may
not be considered an operand error (which causes the shell to exit in most
cases).
EXP_REDIR was not being checked for while expanding positional parameters in
redirection, so CTL* bytes were not being prefixed where they should be.

POSIX does not permit to continuing a getopts loop with different
arguments. For parsing the positional parameters, we handle this case by
resetting the getopts state when the positional parameters are changed in
any way (and the getopts state is local to a function). However, in the
syntax getopts <optstring> <var> <arg...>, changes could lead to invalid
memory access.
In the syntax getopts <optstring> <var> <arg...>, store a copy of the
arguments and continue to use them until getopts is reset.

1. 50+% of NO_PIE use is fixed by adding -fPIC to INTERNALLIB and other
build-only utility libraries.
2. Another 40% is fixed by generating _pic.a variants of various libraries.
3. Some of the NO_PIE use is a bit absurd as it is disabling PIE (and ASLR)
where it never would work anyhow, such as csu or loader. This suggests
there may be better ways of adding support to the tree. Many of these
cases can be fixed such that -fPIE will work but there is really no
reason to have it in those cases.
4. Some of the uses are working around hacks done to some Makefiles that are
really building libraries but have been using bsd.prog.mk because the code
is cleaner. Had they been using bsd.lib.mk then NO_PIE would not have
been needed.
We likely do want to enable PIE by default (opt-out) for non-tree consumers
(such as ports). For in-tree though we probably want to only enable PIE
(opt-in) for common attack targets such as remote service daemons and setuid
utilities. This is also a great performance compromise since ASLR is expected
to reduce performance. As such it does not make sense to enable it in all
utilities such as ls(1) that have little benefit to having it enabled.

These paths have had to be adjusted to changes in the testsuite runner
several times, so modify the tests to remove the need for such adjustment.
A cp in functional_test.sh is now unneeded, but this matters little in
performance.
In C, shift distances equal to or larger than the number of bits in the
operand result in undefined behaviour. As part of eliminating undefined
behaviour in arithmetic, mask off the distance like Java and JavaScript
specify and C on x86 usually does.
Assumption: conversion from unsigned to signed retains the two's complement
bits.
Assumption: uintmax_t has no padding bits.
Even though jail is part of the base system, it can be disabled by src.conf
settings. Therefore, it should be listed as a required program for tests
that use it.

One problem is inferior(9) looping due to the process tree becoming a
graph instead of tree if the parent is traced by child. Another issue
is due to the use of p_oppid to restore the original parent/child
relationship, because real parent could already exited and its pid
reused (noted by mjg).
Add the function proc_realparent(9), which calculates the parent for
given process. It uses the flag P_TREE_FIRST_ORPHAN to detect the head
element of the p_orphan list and than stepping back to its container
to find the parent process. If the parent has already exited, the
init(8) is returned.
Move the P_ORPHAN and the new helper flag from the p_flag* to new
p_treeflag field of struct proc, which is protected by proctree lock
instead of proc lock, since the orphans relationship is managed under
the proctree_lock already.
The remaining uses of p_oppid in ptrace(PT_DETACH) and process
reapping are replaced by proc_realparent(9).

Currently, there can be no more than INT_MAX positional parameters. Make
sure to treat all higher ones as unset to avoid incorrect results and
crashes.
On 64-bit systems, our atoi() takes the low 32 bits of the strtol() and
sign-extends them.
On 32-bit systems, the call to atoi() returned INT_MAX for too high values
and there is not enough address space for so many positional parameters, so
there was no issue.
Although it is probably unwise to use this, POSIX is clear that leading
zeroes are permitted in positional parameters (and do not indicate octal).
Such positional parameters are checked for being unset and/or null
correctly, but their value is incorrectly expanded.
The test locale1.0 depends on locale support; it is meaningless without a
working LC_MESSAGES.
I added an OptionalObsoleteFiles.inc entry.

fflag to ignore fts_read errors, but stop deleting from that directory
because no further progress can be made.
When building a kernel with a high -j value on a high core count
machine, during the cleanobj phase we can wind up doing multiple rm
-rf at the same time for modules that have subdirectories. This
exposed this race (sometimes) as fts_read can return an error if the
directory is removed by another rm -rf. Since the intent of the -f
flag was to ignore errors, even if this was a bug in fts_read, we
should ignore the error like we've been instructed to do.
This is currently an opt-in build flag. Once ASLR support is ready and stable
it should changed to opt-out and be enabled by default along with ASLR.
Each application Makefile uses opt-out to ensure that ASLR will be enabled by
default in new directories when the system is compiled with PIE/ASLR. [2]
Mark known build failures as NO_PIE for now.
The only known runtime failure was rtld.

remove the now-redundant checks for RELEASE_CRUNCH. This originally
was defined for building smaller sysinstall images, but was later also
used by picobsd builds for a similar purpose. Now that we've moved
away from sysinstall, picobsd is the only remaining consumer of this
interface. Adding these two options reduces the RELEASE_CRUNCH
special cases in the tree by half.
When getopts finds an invalid option or a missing option-argument, it should
not reset its state and should set OPTIND as normal. This is an old ash bug
that was fixed long ago in dash. Our behaviour now matches most other
shells.

conv=sparse.
This change fixes two separate issues observed when the last output
block is all zeroes, and conv=sparse is in use. In this case, care
must be taken to roll back the last seek and write the entire last zero
block at the original offset where it should have occurred: when the
destination file is a block device, it is not possible to roll back
by just one character as the write would then not be properly aligned.
Furthermore, the buffer used to write this last all-zeroes block
needs to be properly zeroed-out. This was not the case previously,
resulting in a junk data byte appearing instead of a zero in the
output stream.

gettimeofday returns the system clock, which may jump forward or back,
especially if NTP is in use. If the time jumps backwards, then dd will see
negative elapsed time, round it up to 1usec, and print an absurdly fast
transfer rate.
The solution is to use clock_gettime(2) with CLOCK_MONOTONIC_PRECISE as the
clock_id. That clock advances steadily, regardless of changes to the system
clock.

As stated in the man page, this is equivalent to use "%a, %d %b %Y %T %z"
as the output format while LC_TIME is set to the "C" locale.
This is compatible with date(1) from the GNU core utilities.
From the original OpenBSD commit message:
restore the traditional behavior of -f implying -a; apparently Keith
Bostic forgot to restore it when the -f flag was put back on 2nd of
September 1989, after being removed on 16th of August as a
consequence of issues getting it working over NFS, so deviation from
traditional UNIX behavior in all BSDs looks like an historical
accident; as a side effect, this change accommodates behavior of
this option to IEEE Std 1003.1-2008 (``POSIX.1'').

all the SUBDIR entries in parallel, instead of serially. Apply this
option to a selected number of Makefiles, which can greatly speed up the
build on multi-core machines, when using make -j.
This can be extended to more Makefiles later on, whenever they are
verified to work correctly with parallel building.
I tested this on a 24-core machine, with make -j48 buildworld (N = 6):

E.g. the build was approximately 45% faster in real time. On machines
with less cores, or with lower -j settings, the speedup will not be as
impressive. But at least you can now almost max out a machine with
