FreeBSD-SA00:42.
Change stackgap_alloc to bounds-check the allocation vs. the stack
gap, returning NULL if there isn't room for the allocation.
Change emul_find() to check for a NULL return from stackgap_alloc()
and convert that into ENAMETOOLONG.
Reorder various emulation syscalls so that all *_CHECK_ALT_{EXIST,CREAT}
calls (which turn into emul_find() under the covers come *after* small,
fixed-size stackgap_alloc() calls.
Clean up ibcs2 {get,set}groups.
- Change ktrace interface to pass in the current process, rather than
p->p_tracep, since the various ktr* function need curproc anyway.
- Add curproc as a parameter to mi_switch() since all callers had it
handy anyway.
- Add a second proc argument for inferior() since callers all had
curproc handy.
Also, miscellaneous cleanups in ktrace:
- ktrace now always uses file-based, rather than vnode-based I/O
(simplifies, increases type safety); eliminate KTRFLAG_FD & KTRFAC_FD.
Do non-blocking I/O, and yield a finite number of times when receiving
EWOULDBLOCK before giving up.
- move code duplicated between sys_fktrace and sys_ktrace into ktrace_common.
- simplify interface to ktrwrite()
timeout()/untimeout() API:
- Clients supply callout handle storage, thus eliminating problems of
resource allocation.
- Insertion and removal of callouts is constant time, important as
this facility is used quite a lot in the kernel.
The old timeout()/untimeout() API has been removed from the kernel.
count is 0, wait for use count to drain before finishing the close.
This is necessary in order for multiple processes to safely share file
descriptor tables.
to the stat(2) family and msync(2). This uses a primitive function
versioning scheme.
This reverts the libc shared library major version from 13 to 12, and
adds a few new interfaces to bring us to libc version 12.20.
