elad aede3e59fc PR/35304: C J Coleman: Off-by-one nul byte overwrite in mode_bits routine
of sbin/sysctl

pavel edab74570a Move the description of sysctl MIBs from sysctl.3 to a new manual page
sysctl.7. Remove the list of MIBs from sysctl.8 so we don't have to
maintain duplicate information, as proposed by YAMAMOTO Takashi on
tech-userlevel. Also remove references to header files from sysctl.8.

The numeric constants remain documented, they are still needed in some
cases. See the discussion on tech-userlevel. ("mib list in sysctl.8")

OK by YAMAMOTO Takashi.

elad b5d09ef065 okay, since there was no way to divide this to two commits, here it goes..
introduce fileassoc(9), a kernel interface for associating meta-data with
files using in-kernel memory. this is very similar to what we had in
veriexec till now, only abstracted so it can be used more easily by more
consumers.

this also prompted the redesign of the interface, making it work on vnodes
and mounts and not directly on devices and inodes. internally, we still
use file-id but that's gonna change soon... the interface will remain
consistent.

as a result, veriexec went under some heavy changes to conform to the new
interface. since we no longer use device numbers to identify file-systems,
the veriexec sysctl stuff changed too: kern.veriexec.count.dev_N is now
kern.veriexec.tableN.* where 'N' is NOT the device number but rather a
way to distinguish several mounts.

also worth noting is the plugging of unmount/delete operations
wrt/fileassoc and veriexec.

tons of input from yamt@, wrstuden@, martin@, and christos@.

elad 202872db03 add support for parsing file mode bits.
when printed, you'll see something like "0600 (rw-------)", like the
ls output. when reading input you can either specify octal mode (0600)
or chmod-like (u=rw).
