read/write/accept, then the expectation is that the blocked thread will
exit and the close complete.
Since only one fd is affected, but many fd can refer to the same file,
the close code can only request the fs code unblock with ERESTART.
Fixed for pipes and sockets, ERESTART will only be generated after such
a close - so there should be no change for other programs.
Also rename fo_abort() to fo_restart() (this used to be fo_drain()).
Fixes PR/26567
-an invalid signal number passed to mq_notify(2) could crash the kernel
on delivery -- add a boundary check
-mq_receive(2) from an empty queue crashed the kernel by NULL dereference
in timeout calculation -- handle the NULL case
-likewise for mq_send(2) to a full queue
-a user could set mq_maxmsg (the maximal number of messages in a queue)
to a huge value on mq_open(O_CREAT) and later use up all kernel
memory by mq_send(2) -- add a sysctl'able limit which defaults
to 16*mq_def_maxmsg
(mq_notify(2) should get some more checks, and SIGEV_* values other
than SIGEV_SIGNAL should be handled somehow, but this doesn't look
security critical)
do drain' in many places, whereas fo_drain() was called in order to force
blocking read()/write() etc calls to return to userspace so that a close()
call from a different thread can complete.
In the sockets code comment out the broken code in the inner function,
it was being called from compat code.
mq_prio_max is dynamic, and sorted list is used for custom setup, when
user manually sets higher priority range.
- Cache mq->mq_attrib in some places. Change msg_ptr type to uint8_t.
- Update copyright, misc.
latter might lose its KAUTH_GENERIC_ISSUSER check soon, add an internal
function, mqueue_access(), and call genfs_can_access() from it instead
so we don't pollute the main code path once we need to add a special
kauth(9) check for message queues.
No functional change, error codes preserved.

the other routines of the same spirit.
Adjust file-system code to use it.
Keep vaccess() for KPI compatibility and to keep element of least
surprise. A "diagnostic" message warning that vaccess() is deprecated will
be printed when it's used (obviously, only in DIAGNOSTIC kernels).

mq_send() should fail due to permissions. Noted by Stathis Kamperis!
- Check for empty message queue name (POSIX does not allow this for regular
files, and it's weird), check for DTYPE_MQUEUE, fix permission check in
mq_unlink(), clean up.
than one active reference to a file descriptor. It should dislodge threads
sleeping while holding a reference to the descriptor. Implemented only for
sockets but should be extended to pipes, fifos, etc.
Fixes the case of a multithreaded process doing something like the
following, which would have hung until the process got a signal.
thr0 accept(fd, ...)
thr1 close(fd)
proclist_mutex and proclist_lock into a single adaptive mutex (proc_lock).
Implications:
- Inspecting process state requires thread context, so signals can no longer
be sent from a hardware interrupt handler. Signal activity must be
deferred to a soft interrupt or kthread.
- As the proc state locking is simplified, it's now safe to take exit()
and wait() out from under kernel_lock.
- The system spends less time at IPL_SCHED, and there is less lock activity.

Fixup compat code to not write into 'uap' and (in some cases) to actually
pass a correctly formatted 'uap' structure with the right name to the
next routine.
A few 'compat' routines that just call standard ones have been deleted.
All the 'compat' code compiles (along with the kernels required to test
build it).
98% done by automated scripts.
(xxx_INIT to xxx_HEAD_INITIALIZER). Drop code which inits
non-auto (global or static) variables to 0 since that's
already implied by being non-auto. Init some static/global
cpu_simple_locks at compile time.
