change_owner().
* Change the semantics of chown(), fchown() and lchown(): when requesting a
change of the owner of a file, clear the set-user-id bit; analogous behaviour
for group changes.
* Since the above is a violation of the semantics specified by POSIX and
X/Open, add corresponding compatibility syscalls: __posix_chown(),
__posix_fchown(), __posix_lchown(). (Neither fchown() nor lchown() is
specified by POSIX; the prefix is intended to reflect the semantics.)
* Rename posix_rename() to __posix_rename() to follow the above convention.
(thus causing s_leader to become NULL) by storing the session ID separately
in the session structure. Export the session ID to userspace in the
eproc structure.

UVM was written by chuck cranor <chuck@maria.wustl.edu>, with some
minor portions derived from the old Mach code. i provided some help
getting swap and paging working, and other bug fixes/ideas. chuck
silvers <chuq@chuq.com> also provided some other fixes.
this is the rest of the MI portion changes.
this will be KNF'd shortly. :-)
down "Data modified on freelist" and "muliple free" problems.
The log is activated by the MALLOCLOG option, and the size of the
event ring buffer is controlable via the MALLOGLOGSIZE option (default
is 100000 entries).
From Chris Demetriou, cleaned up a little by me per suggestions in the
e-mail from Chris that contained the code.
called "MACHINE_NEW_NONCONGIG". this is required for UVM, the new VM
system (also written by chuck) that is coming soon. adds new functions:
vm_page_physload() -- tell the VM system about an area of memory.
vm_physseg_find() -- returns index in vm_physmem array that this
address is in.
and several new versions of old functions/macros defined in vm_page.h.
this is the MI portion. sparc, and then later i386 portions to come.
all other ports need to change to this ASAP! (alpha is already being
worked on)
enabled with the LOCAL_CREDS socket option on the listener. Semantics are
similar to BSD/OS's:
- Creds are available with first data on SOCK_STREAM, and with every datagram
on SOCK_DGRAM.
- It is not possible to forge credentials.
Different in that:
- Different credential data structure (ours does not rely on the format
of internal kernel data structures, and does not pass the login name).
- We can pass creds and file descriptors at the same time (this does not
work in BSD/OS).
Luke Mewburn <lukem@netbsd.org> gets credit for inspiring me to implement
this. :-)
