MFC r335183:

proc0_post: Fix some locking issues


# 314667 04-Mar-2017 avg

MFC r283291: don't use CALLOUT_MPSAFE with callout_init()

The main purpose of this MFC is to reduce conflicts for other merges.
Parts of the original change have already "trickled down" via individual MFCs.

cred: add proc_set_cred helper


# 295674 16-Feb-2016 jhb

MFC 295418,295419:
Fix hangs or panics when misbehaved kernel threads return from their
main function.

295418:
Mark proc0 as a kernel process via the P_KTHREAD flag.

All other kernel processes have this flag set and all threads in proc0
(including thread0) have the similar TDP_KTHREAD flag set.

295419:
Call kthread_exit() rather than kproc_exit() for a premature kthread exit.

Kernel threads (and processes) are supposed to call kthread_exit() (or
kproc_exit()) to terminate. However, the kernel includes a fallback in
fork_exit() to force a kthread exit if a kernel thread's "main" routine
returns. This fallback was added back when the kernel only had processes
and was not updated to call kthread_exit() instead of kproc_exit() when
threads were added to the kernel.

This mistake was particularly exciting when the errant thread belonged to
proc0. Due to the missing P_KTHREAD flag the fallback did not kick in
and instead tried to return to userland via whatever garbage was in the
trapframe. With P_KTHREAD set it tried to terminate proc0 resulting in
other amusements.

# 294136 16-Jan-2016 dchagin

MFC r293613:

Implement vsyscall hack. Prior to 2.13 glibc uses vsyscall
instead of vdso. An upcoming linux_base-c6 needs it.


# 293490 09-Jan-2016 dchagin

MFC r283382:

In preparation for switching linuxulator to the use the native 1:1
threads add a hook for cleaning thread resources before the thread die.


# 293473 09-Jan-2016 dchagin

To facillitate an upcoming Linuxulator merging partially
MFC r275121 (by kib). Only merge the syntax changes from r275121,
PROC_*LOCK() macros still lock the same proc spinlock.

The process spin lock currently has the following distinct uses:

- Threads lifetime cycle, in particular, counting of the threads in
the process, and interlocking with process mutex and thread lock.
The main reason of this is that turnstile locks are after thread
locks, so you e.g. cannot unlock blockable mutex (think process
mutex) while owning thread lock.

- Virtual and profiling itimers, since the timers activation is done
from the clock interrupt context. Replace the p_slock by p_itimmtx
and PROC_ITIMLOCK().

- Profiling code (profil(2)), for similar reason. Replace the p_slock
by p_profmtx and PROC_PROFLOCK().

- Resource usage accounting. Need for the spinlock there is subtle,
my understanding is that spinlock blocks context switching for the
current thread, which prevents td_runtime and similar fields from
changing (updates are done at the mi_switch()). Replace the p_slock
by p_statmtx and PROC_STATLOCK().

# 280632 25-Mar-2015 ian

MFC r279361, r279395, r279396:

Allow the kern.osrelease and kern.osreldate sysctl values to be set in a
jail's creation parameters. This allows the kernel version to be reliably
spoofed within the jail whether examined directly with sysctl or
indirectly with the uname -r and -K options.

Export the new osreldate and osrelease jail parms in jail_get(2).

Fix line wrap.

the orphaned descendants.
