usync_cntl() system calls.
- when usync_cntl is used and the process is aborted (eg: by kill -9)
libc does not call usync_cntl() to unblock things. We have to cleanup
data allocated in the kernel. This is now done through the emulation
specific exit hook
- IRIX initialize some data in the system part of the PRDA: the pid and
a prid (PRDA ID?). We initialize both to pid.
- Move back struct irix_share_group from irix_exec.h to irix_prctl.h, it
is more revelant here.
- fix a few typos
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.

- Switch all m68k-based ports over to __HAVE_SYSCALL_INTERN.
- Add systrace glue.
- Define struct mdproc in <m68k/proc.h> instead of <machine/proc.h>.
(They were all defined exactly the same anyway, other than a couple
of the MDP_* flags.)
* 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.
private area called PRDA that remains unshared. We implement this by using
different vmspace for each share group member, and keeping the memory
appings in sync on each mmap/munmap/mprotect/break...
We use irix_saddr_sync_vmcmd and irix_saddr_sync_syscall to apply a
vmcmd or a syscall to all share group member, this makes the job a bit
easier.

- First implementation of procblk(). THis is supposed to suspend processes.
We emulate this by sending a SIGSTOP, which is not very accurate since
on IRIX, sending a SIGCONT to a process suspended by procblk() will not
resume it.
- support for shared groups
poll will return true until the semaphore is blocked again, but before the
semaphore is blocked, poll returns false.
We do this by maintaining another queue of "released" processes in
struct irix_usema_rec. Unblocking causes the waiting process record to be
moved to the released queue, and poll check for the process in this released
queue.
a SIGSEGV when sigaction(2) is used before a fork(2) and a signal is received
in the child.
- we now nearly correctly emulate PR_TERMCHILD in prctl(2). (the perfect
emulation would not send a SIGHUP if the parent is killed)
return the number of processes waiting on the semaphore. We now maintiain
a count of waiting processes.
- Blocked processes are unblocked "first in, first out". We now have a
queue of waiting processes on a asemaphores, so that we can wakeup the
first blocked process.
Problems:
- We now have a lot of dynamic memory allocation, it may be a bit slow.
- Nothing is SMP safe for now. We need to add locks.
- On close, we forget about a semaphore, which is incorrect. One process
can close its fd attached on a semaphore, but other processes would carry
on using it. Since any process can join a shared arena, this is not an
easy thing to solve.
- A lot of usema/usync functionnalities are still to be discovered.

There are a few issues:
1) at least one ioctl need to set retval. We handle this in irix_sys_ioctl()
by replacing the data argument by a pointer to a strucutre in the stackgap
that carries the real data and retval. The underlying ioctl methods can
therefore retreive both data and retval.
2) usemaclone is a cloning device: each time it is open, it creates a new
context, and ioctl operation on each open file descriptor will lead to
different behavior. This functionnality is available in NetBSD through the
devvp branch. This first implementation does not use devvp yet, but this
should be done later. Currently, we create a new vnode, and we provide our
own vnode operations. Some operation are applied to the cloned vnode, others
are applied to the original vnode. The v_data field is used to hold a
reference to the original vnode so that we can work on it.
3) at least the setattr vnode operation needs some customisation: IRIX
libc relies on the fact that fchmod on /dev/usema will return 0 in case
of failure.

This fixes the endless loop when reading directories on NFS, though
applications won't see all directory entries due to different problem.
