gets reset properly when the old parent exits before the child. A flag
is set in old parent process when the child is reparented in ptrace(2).
If it's set when process is exiting, all running processes have their
'old parent process' pointer checked and reset if appropriate. Also
change to use 'struct proc *' pointer directly, rather than pid_t.
This fixes security/14444 by David Sainty.

* struct sigacts gets a new sigact_sigdesc structure, which has the
sigaction and the trampoline/version. Version 0 means "legacy kernel
provided trampoline". Other versions are coordinated with machine-
dependent code in libc.
* sigaction1() grows two more arguments -- the trampoline pointer and
the trampoline version.
* A new __sigaction_sigtramp() system call is provided to register a
trampoline along with a signal handler.
* The handler is no longer passed to sensig() functions. Instead,
sendsig() looks up the handler by peeking in the sigacts for the
process getting the signal (since it has to look in there for the
trampoline anyway).
* Native sendsig() functions now select the appropriate trampoline and
its arguments based on the trampoline version in the sigacts.
Changes to libc to use the new facility will be checked in later. Kernel
version not bumped; we will ride the 1.6C bump made recently.
format specific.
Struct emul has a e_setregs hook back, which points to emulation-specific
setregs function. es_setregs of struct execsw now only points to
optional executable-specific setup function (this is only used for
ECOFF).
is supposed to point directly to struct mbuf or struct sockaddr in kernel
space as appropriate, rather than being a pointer to memory in userland.
This is to be used by compat/* when emulation needs to wrap
send{to|msg}(2)/recv{from|msg}(2) and modify the passed struct
sockaddr.
Async I/O OS specifities should now handled in OS specific code. Linux
has been done, but other emulation should be handled. See case LINUX_F_SETFL
in sys/compat/linux/common/linux_file.c:linux_sys_fcntl() for more details.

between creation of a file descriptor and close(2) when using kernel
assisted threads. What we do is stick descriptors in the table, but
mark them as "larval". This causes essentially everything to treat
it as a non-existent descriptor, except for fdalloc(), which sees a
filled slot so that it won't (incorrectly) allocate it again. When
a descriptor is fully constructed, the code that has constructed it
marks it as "mature" (which actually clears the "larval" flag), and
things continue to work as normal.
While here, gather all the code that gets a descriptor from the table
into a fd_getfile() function, and call it, rather than having the
same (sometimes incorrect) code copied all over the place.

This addresses kern/10981 by Matthew Orgass.
* __HAVE_SYSCALL_INTERN. If this is defined, e_syscall is replaced by
e_syscall_intern, which is called at key places in the kernel. This can be
used to set a MD syscall handler pointer. This obsoletes and replaces the
*_HAS_SEPARATED_SYSCALL flags.
* __HAVE_MINIMAL_EMUL. If this is defined, certain (deprecated) elements in
struct emul are omitted.
