mac_check_proc_wait(), which control the ability to wait4() specific
processes. This permits MAC policies to limit information flow from
children that have changed label, although has to be handled carefully
due to common programming expectations regarding the behavior of
wait4(). The cr_seeotheruids() check in p_canwait() is #if 0'd for
this reason.
The mac_stub and mac_test policies are updated to reflect these new
entry points.

create kernel threads and call rfork(2) with RFTHREAD flag set in this case,
which puts parent and child into the same threading group. As a result
all threads that belong to the same program end up in the same threading
group.
This is similar to what linuxthreads port does, though in this case we don't
have a luxury of having access to the source code and there is no definite
way to differentiate linux_clone() called for threading purposes from other
uses, so that we have to resort to heuristics.
Allow SIGTHR to be delivered between all processes in the same threading
group previously it has been blocked for s[ug]id processes.
This also should improve locking of the same file descriptor from different
threads in programs running under linux compat layer.

former is callable from user space and the latter from the kernel one. Make
kernel version take additional argument which tells if the respective call
should check for additional restrictions for sending signals to suid/sugid
applications or not.
Make all emulation layers using non-checked version, since signal numbers in
emulation layers can have different meaning that in native mode and such
protection can cause misbehaviour.
As a result remove LIBTHR from the signals allowed to be delivered to a
suid/sugid application.

suid application. The problem is that Linux applications using old Linux
threads (pre-NPTL) use signal 32 (linux SIGRTMIN) for communication between
thread-processes. If such an linux application is installed suid or sgid
and security.bsd.conservative_signals=1 (default), then permission will be
denied to send such a signal and the application will freeze.
I believe the same will be true for native applications that use libthr,
since libthr uses SIGTHR for implementing conditional variables.

thread-local pointer, in practice that thread needs to be curthread. If
we're running with INVARIANTS, generate a warning if not. If we have
KDB compiled in, generate a stack trace. This doesn't fire at all in my
local test environment, but could be irritating if it fires frequently
for someone, so there will be motivation to fix things quickly when it
does.
SOCK_LOCK(so):
- Hold socket lock over calls to MAC entry points reading or
manipulating socket labels.
- Assert socket lock in MAC entry point implementations.
- When externalizing the socket label, first make a thread-local
copy while holding the socket lock, then release the socket lock
to externalize to userspace.
The uidinfo code appears to be MPSAFE, and is referenced without Giant
elsewhere. While this grab of Giant was only made in fairly rare
circumstances (actually GC'ing on refcount==0), grabbing Giant here
potentially introduces lock order issues with any locks held by the
caller. So this probably won't help performance much unless you change
credentials a lot in an application, and leave a lot of file descriptors
and cached credentials around. However, it simplifies locking down
consumers of the credential interfaces.

and the mpo_create_cred() MAC policy entry point to
mpo_copy_cred_label(). This is more consistent with similar entry
points for creation and label copying, as mac_create_cred() was
called from crdup() as opposed to during process creation. For
a number of policies, this removes the requirement for special
handling when copying credential labels, and improves consistency.

special signal-delivery protections for setugid processes. In the
event that a system is relying on "unusual" signal delivery to
processes that change their credentials, this can be used to work
around application problems.
Also, add SIGALRM to the set of signals permitted to be delivered to
setugid processes by unprivileged subjects.

be created with either the default sleep mutexes or with spin mutexes.
A dynamically created mutex pool can now be destroyed if it is no longer
needed.
Create two pools by default, one that matches the existing pool that
uses the MTX_NOWITNESS option that should be used for building higher
level locks, and a new pool with witness checking enabled.
Modify the users of the existing mutex pool to use the appropriate pool
in the new implementation.

Invoke the necessary MAC entry points to maintain labels on

uifind() with a proc lock held.
change_ruid() and change_euid() have been modified to take a uidinfo
structure which will be pre-allocated by callers, they will then
call uihold() on the uidinfo structure so that the caller's logic
is simplified.
This allows one to call uifind() before locking the proc struct and
thereby avoid a potential blocking allocation with the proc lock
held.
This may need revisiting, perhaps keeping a spare uidinfo allocated
per process to handle this situation or re-examining if the proc
lock needs to be held over the entire operation of changing real
or effective user id.
