"Remove cn_lwp from struct componentname. curlwp should be used
from on. The NDINIT() macro no longer takes the lwp parameter and
associates the credentials of the calling thread with the namei
structure." from pooka.
Should fix PR/36939 and make the rlimit code MP safe.

The p_limit field (for a process) is only be changed once (on the first
write), and a reference to the old structure is kept (for code paths
that have cached the pointer).
Only p->p_limit is now locked by p->p_mutex, and since the referenced memory
will not go away, is only needed if the pointer is to be changed.
The contents of 'struct plimit' are all locked by pl_mutex, except that the
code doesn't bother to acquire it for reads (which are basically atomic).
Add FORK_SHARELIMIT that causes fork1() to share the limits between parent
and child, use it for the IRIX_PR_SULIMIT.
Fix borked test for both IRIX_PR_SUMASK and IRIX_PR_SDIR being set.
of the corresponding 32bit architecture.
Use it for the 64bit items in netbsd32_statvfs so that the structure
doesn't collect 8byte alignment (and 4 bytes of trailing padding).
This replaces the 'packed' attribute which wasn't architecture specific
and would cause massive overheads accessing every member of sparc64.
Should allow the MIPS64 port do DTRT.
1 microsecond into the future, the thread could enter an untimed sleep.
- Change the signature of _lwp_park() to accept an lwpid_t and second
hint pointer, but do so in a way that remains compatible with older
pthread libraries. This can be used to wake another thread before the
calling thread goes asleep, saving at least one syscall + involuntary
context switch. This turns out to be a fairly large win on the condvar
benchmarks that I have tried.
- Mark some more syscalls MP safe.
values of the SS_ONSTACK and SS_DISABLE constants.
Use it to shorten the source files when this action is replicated.
Actually, given the monstrous complexity of sigaltstack1() there is
probably a much better way to do this...
compat_10_netbsd32_sys_semsys() (where the one parameter is already in
kernel space).
Note that the code in compat_10_netbsd32_sys_semsys() has always been wrong,
since it called compat_14_sys___semctl() - which would read 64bit values!
once the 'address' has been copied into an mbuf.
Add extra flags for 'struct msghdr.msg_flags' to indicate that the address
and control are already in mbufs, and that the uio structure is in userspace
for sending data, rename sendit() to do_sys_sendmsg() to ensure no old code
passes in random flags.
Changes to compat code to use new functions - removing some stackgap use.
Fix a 'use after free' in compat_43_sys_recvmsg.
I ***THINK*** the code that converts 'cmsg' formatted data is borked!
svr4_stream.c ought to be generated from svr4_32_stream.c during the build.
and 'rusage' without having to copy data to/from stackgap buffers.
The old split (find_stopped_child) could be removed.
amd64 seems to run netbsd32, linux and linux32 emulations. sparc64 compiles.
which can either be copied directly to userspace, or converted then copied.
Saves replicating a lot of code in the compat functions (esp. for
getvfsstat) at a cast of an extra function call in the non-emulated case -
which is unlikely to be measurable given the other costs of the actions
involved (even on vax).
Remove dofhstat() and dofhstatvfs() (and the last caller).
Remove some redundant stackgap_init() calls.
avoid having to allocate space in the 'stackgap'
- which is very LWP unfriendly.
The additional code for non-emulation namei() is trivial, the reduction for
the emulations is massive.
The vnode for a processes emulation root is saved in the cwdi structure
during process exec.
If the emulation root the TRYEMULROOT flag are set, namei() will do an initial
search for absolute pathnames in the emulation root, if that fails it will
retry from the normal root.
".." at the emulation root will always go to the real root, even in the middle
of paths and when expanding symlinks.
Absolute symlinks found using absolute paths in the emulation root will be
relative to the emulation root (so /usr/lib/xxx.so -> /lib/xxx.so links
inside the emulation root don't need changing).
If the root of the emulation would be returned (for an emulation lookup), then
the real root is returned instead (matching the behaviour of emul_lookup,
but being a cheap comparison here) so that programs that scan "../.."
looking for the root dircetory don't loop forever.
The target for symbolic links is no longer mangled (it used to get the
CHECK_ALT_xxx() treatment, so could get /emul/xxx prepended).
CHECK_ALT_xxx() are no more. Most of the change is deleting them, and adding
TRYEMULROOT to the flags to NDINIT().
A lot of the emulation system call stubs could now be deleted.
