Revert r330897:

This was intended to be a non-functional change. It wasn't. The commit
message was thus wrong. In addition it broke arm, and merged crypto
related code.

Revert with prejudice.

This revert skips files touched in r316370 since that commit was since
MFCed. This revert also skips files that require $FreeBSD$ property

# 300792 26-May-2016 bdrewery

exec: Add credential change information into imgp for process_exec hook.

This allows an EVENTHANDLER(process_exec) hook to see if the new image
will cause credentials to change whether due to setgid/setuid or because
of POSIX saved-id semantics.

This adds 3 new fields into image_params:
struct ucred *newcred Non-null if the credentials will change.
bool credential_setid True if the new image is setuid or setgid.

This will pre-determine the new credentials before invoking the image
activators, where the process_exec hook is called. The new credentials
will be installed into the process in the same place as before, after
image activators are done handling the image.

# 285622 16-Jul-2015 ed

Implement CloudABI's exec() call.

Summary:
In a runtime that is purely based on capability-based security, there is
a strong emphasis on how programs start their execution. We need to make
sure that we execute an new program with an exact set of file
descriptors, ensuring that credentials are not leaked into the process
accidentally.

Providing the right file descriptors is just half the problem. There
also needs to be a framework in place that gives meaning to these file
descriptors. How does a CloudABI mail server know which of the file
descriptors corresponds to the socket that receives incoming emails?
Furthermore, how will this mail server acquire its configuration
parameters, as it cannot open a configuration file from a global path on
disk?

CloudABI solves this problem by replacing traditional string command
line arguments by tree-like data structure consisting of scalars,
sequences and mappings (similar to YAML/JSON). In this structure, file
descriptors are treated as a first-class citizen. When calling exec(),
file descriptors are passed on to the new executable if and only if they
are referenced from this tree structure. See the cloudabi-run(1) man
page for more details and examples (sysutils/cloudabi-utils).

Fortunately, the kernel does not need to care about this tree structure
at all. The C library is responsible for serializing and deserializing,
but also for extracting the list of referenced file descriptors. The
system call only receives a copy of the serialized data and a layout of
what the new file descriptor table should look like:

int proc_exec(int execfd, const void *data, size_t datalen, const int *fds,
size_t fdslen);

This change introduces a set of fd*_remapped() functions:

- fdcopy_remapped() pulls a copy of a file descriptor table, remapping
all of the file descriptors according to the provided mapping table.
- fdinstall_remapped() replaces the file descriptor table of the process
by the copy created by fdcopy_remapped().
- fdescfree_remapped() frees the table in case we aborted before
fdinstall_remapped().

We then add a function exec_copyin_data_fds() that builds on top these
functions. It copies in the data and constructs a new remapped file
descriptor. This is used by cloudabi_sys_proc_exec().

Test Plan:
cloudabi-run(1) is capable of spawning processes successfully, providing
it data and file descriptors. procstat -f seems to confirm all is good.
Regular FreeBSD processes also work properly.

# 282708 10-May-2015 kib

On exec, single-threading must be enforced before arguments space is
allocated from exec_map. If many threads try to perform execve(2) in
parallel, the exec map is exhausted and some threads sleep
uninterruptible waiting for the map space. Then, the thread which won
the race for the space allocation, cannot single-thread the process,
causing deadlock.

the linker option -z stack-size in newer binutils.

The soft RLIMIT_STACK is auto-increased if possible, to satisfy the

# 271141 04-Sep-2014 sbruno

Allow multiple image activators to run on the same execution by changing
imgp->interpreted to a bitmask instead of, functionally, a bool. Each
imgactivator now requires its own flag in interpreted to indicate whether
or not it has already examined argv[0].

Change imgp->interpreted to an unsigned char to add one extra bit for
future use.

With this change, one can execute a shell script from a 64bit host native
make and still get the binmisc image activator to fire for the script
interpreter. Prior to this, execution would fail.

Merge projects/enhanced_coredumps (r204346) into HEAD:

Enhanced process coredump routines.

This brings in the following features:
1) Limit number of cores per process via the %I coredump formatter.
Example:
if corefilename is set to %N.%I.core AND num_cores = 3, then
if a process "rpd" cores, then the corefile will be named
"rpd.0.core", however if it cores again, then the kernel will
generate "rpd.1.core" until we hit the limit of "num_cores".

this is useful to get several corefiles, but also prevent filling
the machine with corefiles.

2) Encode machine hostname in core dump name via %H.

3) Compress coredumps, useful for embedded platforms with limited space.
A sysctl kern.compress_user_cores is made available if turned on.

To enable compressed coredumps, the following config options need to be set:
options COMPRESS_USER_CORES
device zlib # brings in the zlib requirements.
device gzio # brings in the kernel vnode gzip output module.

4) Eventhandlers are fired to indicate coredumps in progress.

5) The imgact sv_coredump routine has grown a flag to pass in more
state, currently this is used only for passing a flag down to compress
the coredump or not.

Note that the gzio facility can be used for generic output of gzip'd
streams via vnodes.

# 106468 05-Nov-2002 rwatson

Bring in two sets of changes:

(1) Permit userland applications to request a change of label atomic
with an execve() via mac_execve(). This is required for the
SEBSD port of SELinux/FLASK. Attempts to invoke this without
MAC compiled in result in ENOSYS, as with all other MAC system
calls. Complexity, if desired, is present in policy modules,
rather than the framework.

(2) Permit policies to have access to both the label of the vnode
being executed as well as the interpreter if it's a shell
script or related UNIX nonsense. Because we can't hold both
vnode locks at the same time, cache the interpreter label.
SEBSD relies on this because it supports secure transitioning
via shell script executables. Other policies might want to
take both labels into account during an integrity or
confidentiality decision at execve()-time.

Remove reference to struct execve_args from struct imgact, which
describes an image activation instance. Instead, make use of the
existing fname structure entry, and introduce two new entries,
userspace_argv, and userspace_envv. With the addition of
mac_execve(), this divorces the image structure from the specifics
of the execve() system call, removes a redundant pointer, etc.
No semantic change from current behavior, but it means that the
structure doesn't depend on syscalls.master-generated includes.

There seems to be some redundant initialization of imgact entries,
which I have maintained, but which could probably use some cleaning
up at some point.

Infrastructure tweaks to allow having both an Elf32 and an Elf64 executable
handler in the kernel at the same time. Also, allow for the
exec_new_vmspace() code to build a different sized vmspace depending on
the executable environment. This is a big help for execing i386 binaries
on ia64. The ELF exec code grows the ability to map partial pages when
there is a page size difference, eg: emulating 4K pages on 8K or 16K
hardware pages.

Flesh out the i386 emulation support for ia64. At this point, the only
binary that I know of that fails is cvsup, because the cvsup runtime
tries to execute code in pages not marked executable.

Since all the ELF tools go to a lot of trouble to make sure everything

# 22975 22-Feb-1997 peter

Back out part 1 of the MCFH that changed $Id$ to $FreeBSD$. We are not
ready for it yet.


# 21673 14-Jan-1997 jkh

Make the long-awaited change from $Id$ to $FreeBSD$

This will make a number of things easier in the future, as well as (finally!)
avoiding the Id-smashing problem which has plagued developers for so long.

Boy, I'm glad we're not using sup anymore. This update would have been
insane otherwise.


# 15494 01-May-1996 bde

Removed unnecessary #includes from <sys/imgact.h> so that it is
self-sufficient and added explicit #includes where required.


# 14456 10-Mar-1996 sos

First attempt at FreeBSD & Linux ELF support.

Compile and link a new kernel, that will give native ELF support, and
provide the hooks for other ELF interpreters as well.

To make native ELF binaries use John Polstras elf-kit-1.0.1..
For the time being also use his ld-elf.so.1 and put it in
/usr/libexec.

The Linux emulator has been enhanced to also run ELF binaries, it
is however in its very first incarnation.
Just get some Linux ELF libs (Slackware-3.0) and put them in the
prober place (/compat/linux/...).
I've ben able to run all the Slackware-3.0 binaries I've tried
so far.
(No it won't run quake yet :)


# 12130 06-Nov-1995 dg

All:
Changed vnodep -> vp for consistency with the rest of the kernel, and
changed iparams -> imgp for brevity.

kern_exec.c:
Explicitly initialized some additional parts of the image_params struct
to avoid bzeroing it. Rewrote the set-id code to reduce the number of
logical tests. The rewrite exposed a mostly benign bug in the algorithm:
traced set-id images would get ktracing disabled even if the set-id didn't
happen for other reasons.

Remove trailing whitespace.

Prototypes, prototypes and even more prototypes. Not quite done yet, but
getting closer all the time.


# 2165 21-Aug-1994 paul

Made them all idempotent.

Terry Lambert's loadable kernel module support w/improvements from the
NetBSD group.


# 2112 18-Aug-1994 wollman

Fix up some sloppy coding practices:

- Delete redundant declarations.
- Add -Wredundant-declarations to Makefile.i386 so they don't come back.
- Delete sloppy COMMON-style declarations of uninitialized data in
header files.
- Add a few prototypes.
- Clean up warnings resulting from the above.

NB: ioconf.c will still generate a redundant-declaration warning, which
is unavoidable unless somebody volunteers to make `config' smarter.


# 2056 13-Aug-1994 wollman

Change all #includes to follow the current Berkeley style. Some of these
``changes'' are actually not changes at all, but CVS sometimes has trouble
telling the difference.

This also includes support for second-directory compiles. This is not
quite complete yet, as `config' doesn't yet do the right thing. You can
still make it work trivially, however, by doing the following:

rm /sys/compile
mkdir /usr/obj/sys/compile
ln -s M-. /sys/compile
cd /sys/i386/conf
config MYKERNEL
cd ../../compile/MYKERNEL
ln -s /sys @
rm machine
ln -s @/i386/include machine
make depend
make

Let the linker keep track of pseudo-devices needing initialization and
image activators, rather than listing them inline in the code.


# 850 12-Dec-1993 dg

1) Added proc file system from Paul Kranenburg with changes from
John Dyson to make it reliably work under FreeBSD.
2) Added and enabled PROCFS in the GENERICxx and LINT kernels.
3) New execve() from me. Still work to be done here, but this version
works well and is needed before other changes can be made. For
a description of the design behind this, see freebsd-arch or
ask me.
4) Rewrote stack fault code; made user stack VM grow as needed rather
than all up front; improves performance a little and reduces
process memory requirements.
5) Incorporated fix from Gene Stark to fault/wire a user page table
page to fix a problem in copyout. This is a temporary fix and
is not appropriate for pageable page tables. For a description
of the problem, see Gene's post to the freebsd-hackers mailing
list.
6) Tighten up vm_page struct to reduce memory requirements for it. ifdef
pager page lock code as it's not being used currently.
7) Introduced new element to vmspace struct - vm_minsaddr; initial
(minimum) stack address. Compliment to vm_maxsaddr.
8) Added a panic if the allocation for process u-pages fails.
9) Improve performance and accuracy of kernel profiling by putting in
a little inline assembly instead of spl().
10) Made serial console with sio driver work. Still has problems with
serial input, but is almost useable.
11) Added -Bstatic to SYSTEM_LD in Makefile.i386 so that kernels will
build properly with the new ld.
