was developed as part of Google's Summer of Code 2005 program. This
change adds the kernel code, the mount_tmpfs utility, a regression test
suite and does all other related changes to integrate these.
The file-system is still *experimental*. Therefore, it is disabled by
default in all kernels. However, as typically done, a commented-out
entry is added in them to ease its setup.
Note that I haven't commited the required mountd(8) changes to be able
to export tmpfs file-systems because NFS support is still very unstable
and because, before enabling it, I'd like to do some other changes.
OK'ed by my project mentor, William Studenmund (wrstuden@).
The __UNCONST macro is now used only where necessary and the RW macros
are gone. Most of the changes here are consumers of the
sysctl_createv(9) interface that now takes a pair of const pointers
which used not to be.
but amd64, it just returns 0, doing nothing.
For amd64, it implements vsyscalls through cheating: if the faulting
address is in the vsyscall area (which is statically known on Linux/amd64),
and the intruction pointer is too, it must have been a vsyscall. In that
case, retrieve the return address from the user stack, fix up %rip and
%rsp, and just execute the normal system call. It will return as if
the vsyscall has been executed.
* For sparc64 and amd64, define *SIZ32 VM constants.
* Add a new function pointer to struct emul, pointing at a function
that will return the default VM map address. The default function
is uvm_map_defaultaddr, which just uses the VM_DEFAULT_ADDRESS
macro. This gives emulations control over the default map address,
and allows things to be mapped at the right address (in 32bit range)
for COMPAT_NETBSD32.
* Add code to adjust the data and stack limits when a COMPAT_NETBSD32
or COMPAT_SVR4_32 binary is executed.
* Don't use USRSTACK in kern_resource.c, use p_vmspace->vm_minsaddr
instead (emulations might have set it differently)
* Since this changes struct emul, bump kernel version to 3.99.2
Tested on amd64, compile-tested on sparc64.
supported options can't get out of sync. This add support for the
linux __WCLONE and __WALL options (NetBSD version: WALTSIG and WALLSIG)
Add a diagnostic check to see if the one unhandled option (__WNOTHREAD) is
specified.
This should prevent linux processes from losing their children and creating
tons of zombie processes.
segment should succeed even if the segment would be marked removed; use this
to implement the Linux-compatible semantics of shmat(2)
this fixes the old Linux VMware3 graphics problem with local display,
and possibly other local Linux X clients using MIT-SHM
for Linux-compatible shmat() behaviour - shmat() for the removed shared memory
segment must work from all callers, the shared memory id could be passed e.g.
to native X server via MIT-SHM
temporarily remove the functionality, the Linux-compatible semantics
will be reimplemented differently
provide f_frsize. It cannot be actually used to GNU C statvfs() bug
in f_frsize != f_bsize case, so just keep pretending we don't support it.

explicit size types - the structure definition is actually identical
on currently support COMPAT_LINUX archs, so no point to have 6 copies of it
in the tree
- filesystem size is expressed in number of fragments, not blocks;
this fixes computed filesystem sizes for Linux df(1) and other Linux
binaries using statfs(2) for filesystems, which use different value
for frament and block, such as FFS
- use FS f_namemax instead of always using MAXNAMLEN
- print the socketcall type
- special case socket(2) call, it's also the only one with first argument
not being a socket descriptor
- only dump the relevant part of linux_socketcall_dummy_args, instead
of always the whole structure
grow-down auto extend segment) by allocating segment sized at
current stack size limit, and offsetting requested/returned address
as required
due to how normal virtual memory management work, allocating the
full sized stack memory segment up-front actually requires exactly same
amount of VA space and physical memory as the Linux 'grow' scheme and the
'grow' scheme is quite a lot more difficult to use in applications correctly,
so it's not very apparent why Linux introduced this feature at all

i choose EINVAL rather than ENOTTY, because linux's pipe returns it

and tweak lkminit_*.c (where applicable) to call them, and to call
sysctl_teardown() when being unloaded.
This consists of (1) making setup functions not be static when being
compiled as lkms (change to sys/sysctl.h), (2) making prototypes
visible for the various setup functions in header files (changes to
various header files), and (3) making simple "load" and "unload"
functions in the actual lkminit stuff.
linux_sysctl.c also needs its root exposed (ie, made not static) for
this (when built as an lkm).
exec case, as the emulation already has the ability to intercept that
with the e_proc_exec hook. It is the responsability of the emulation to
take appropriaye action about lwp_emuldata in e_proc_exec.
Patch reviewed by Christos.
Gone are the old kern_sysctl(), cpu_sysctl(), hw_sysctl(),
vfs_sysctl(), etc, routines, along with sysctl_int() et al. Now all
nodes are registered with the tree, and nodes can be added (or
removed) easily, and I/O to and from the tree is handled generically.
Since the nodes are registered with the tree, the mapping from name to
number (and back again) can now be discovered, instead of having to be
hard coded. Adding new nodes to the tree is likewise much simpler --
the new infrastructure handles almost all the work for simple types,
and just about anything else can be done with a small helper function.
All existing nodes are where they were before (numerically speaking),
so all existing consumers of sysctl information should notice no
difference.
PS - I'm sorry, but there's a distinct lack of documentation at the
moment. I'm working on sysctl(3/8/9) right now, and I promise to
watch out for buses.
so that a specific emulation has the oportunity to filter out some signals.
if sigfilter returns 0, then no signal is sent by kpsignal2().
There is another place where signals can be generated: trapsignal. Since this
function is already an emulation hook, no call to the sigfilter hook was
introduced in trapsignal.
This is needed to emulate the softsignal feature in COMPAT_DARWIN (signals
sent as Mach exception messages)
and make the stack and heap non-executable by default. the changes
fall into two basic catagories:
- pmap and trap-handler changes. these are all MD:
= alpha: we already track per-page execute permission with the (software)
PG_EXEC bit, so just have the trap handler pay attention to it.
= i386: use a new GDT segment for %cs for processes that have no
executable mappings above a certain threshold (currently the
bottom of the stack). track per-page execute permission with
the last unused PTE bit.
= powerpc/ibm4xx: just use the hardware exec bit.
= powerpc/oea: we already track per-page exec bits, but the hardware only
implements non-exec mappings at the segment level. so track the
number of executable mappings in each segment and turn on the no-exec
segment bit iff the count is 0. adjust the trap handler to deal.
= sparc (sun4m): fix our use of the hardware protection bits.
fix the trap handler to recognize text faults.
= sparc64: split the existing unified TSB into data and instruction TSBs,
and only load TTEs into the appropriate TSB(s) for the permissions.
fix the trap handler to check for execute permission.
= not yet implemented: amd64, hppa, sh5
- changes in all the emulations that put a signal trampoline on the stack.
instead, we now put the trampoline into a uvm_aobj and map that into
the process separately.

truncate64() wrapper to translate args structure
NetBSD truncate() and ftrucate() have hidden 'pad' argument, so we have
to do the argument translation
Problem found and patch supplied in PR kern/22360 by Ales Krenek
This is the last of syscalls with hidden 'pad' arg we didn't have
wrapper for; all the others (lseek, mmap, pwrite, pread) already had
wrapper before.
* translate MSG_* flags
* rewrite CMSG level/type to appropriate NetBSD value on input, and to Linux
value on output
* handle different CMSG_DATA alignment for some archs
This fixes SCM_RIGHTS passing. Other SCM_* types are not supported -
the set is different on NetBSD and Linux. SCM_TIMESTAMP doesn't seem
to be actually implemented in Linux 2.5.15, so it's not supported
for Linux binaries either (for now).

it checks both the alternative/emul tree, and the non-emul tree.
This makes it possible to run chrooted emulated binaries without need
