spdx: The BSD-2-Clause-FreeBSD identifier is obsolete, drop -FreeBSD

The SPDX folks have obsoleted the BSD-2-Clause-FreeBSD identifier. Catch
up to that fact and revert to their recommended match of BSD-2-Clause.

tty: convert tty_lock_assert to tty_assert_locked to hide lock type

A later change, currently being iterated on in D24459, will in-fact change
the lock type to an sx so that TTY drivers can sleep on it if they need to.
Committing this ahead of time to make the review in question a little more
palatable.

tty_lock_assert() is unfortunately still needed for now in two places to
make sure that the tty lock has not been recursed upon, for those scenarios
where it's supplied by the TTY driver and possibly a mutex that is allowed
to recurse.

sys/sys: further adoption of SPDX licensing ID tags.

Mainly focus on files that use BSD 2-Clause license, however the tool I
was using misidentified many licenses so this was mostly a manual - error
prone - task.

The Software Package Data Exchange (SPDX) group provides a specification
to make it easier for automated tools to detect and summarize well known
opensource licenses. We are gradually adopting the specification, noting
that the tags are considered only advisory and do not, in any way,
superceed or replace the license texts.

- Mark unused arguments as such.
- Make the ttystates table const.

Fix tty_drain() and, thus, TIOCDRAIN of the current tty(4) incarnation
to actually wait until the TX FIFOs of UARTs have be drained before
returning. This is done by bringing the equivalent of the TS_BUSY flag
found in the previous implementation back in an ABI-preserving way.
Reported and tested by: Patrick Powell

Most likely, drivers for USB-serial-adapters likewise incorporating
TX FIFOs as well as other terminal devices that buffer output in some
form should also provide implementations of tsw_busy.

# 18f54771 02-Jul-2011 Ed Schouten <ed@FreeBSD.org>

Reintroduce the cioctl() hook in the TTY layer for digi(4).

The cioctl() hook can be used by drivers to add ioctls to the *.init and
*.lock devices. This commit breaks the ttydevsw ABI, since this
structure didn't provide any padding. To prevent ABI breakage in the
future, add a tsw_spare.

# cfd7bace 29-Dec-2009 Robert Noland <rnoland@FreeBSD.org>

Update d_mmap() to accept vm_ooffset_t and vm_memattr_t.

This replaces d_mmap() with the d_mmap2() implementation and also
changes the type of offset to vm_ooffset_t.

Purge d_mmap2().

All driver modules will need to be rebuilt since D_VERSION is also
bumped.

Introduce a hooks layer for the MPSAFE TTY layer.

One of the features that prevented us from fixing some of the TTY
consumers to work once again, was an interface that allowed consumers to
do the following:

- `Sniff' incoming data, which is used by the snp(4) driver.

- Take direct control of the input and output paths of a TTY, which is
used by ng_tty(4), ppp(4), sl(4), etc.

There's no practical advantage in committing a hooks layer without
having any consumers. In P4 there is a preliminary port of snp(4) and
thompsa@ is busy porting ng_tty(4) to this interface. I already want to
have it in the tree, because this may stimulate others to work on the
remaining modules.

# d344ffe5 22-Sep-2008 Ed Schouten <ed@FreeBSD.org>

Fix style(9) issue in TTY header files: document function argument names.

According to style(9), function argument names should only be omitted
for prototypes that are exported to userspace. This means we should
document the function arguments in the TTY header files, because they
are only used in userspace.

While there, change the type of the buffer argument of
ttydisc_rint_bypass() to `const void *' instead of `char *'.

Implement pts(4) packet mode.

As reported by several users on the mailing lists, applications like
screen(1) fail to properly handle ^S and ^Q characters. This was because
MPSAFE TTY didn't implement packet mode (TIOCPKT) yet. Add basic packet
mode support to make these applications work again.

Integrate the new MPSAFE TTY layer to the FreeBSD operating system.

The last half year I've been working on a replacement TTY layer for the
FreeBSD kernel. The new TTY layer was designed to improve the following:

- Improved driver model:

The old TTY layer has a driver model that is not abstract enough to
make it friendly to use. A good example is the output path, where the
device drivers directly access the output buffers. This means that an
in-kernel PPP implementation must always convert network buffers into
TTY buffers.

If a PPP implementation would be built on top of the new TTY layer
(still needs a hooks layer, though), it would allow the PPP
implementation to directly hand the data to the TTY driver.

- Improved hotplugging:

With the old TTY layer, it isn't entirely safe to destroy TTY's from
the system. This implementation has a two-step destructing design,
where the driver first abandons the TTY. After all threads have left
the TTY, the TTY layer calls a routine in the driver, which can be
used to free resources (unit numbers, etc).

The pts(4) driver also implements this feature, which means
posix_openpt() will now return PTY's that are created on the fly.

- Improved performance:

One of the major improvements is the per-TTY mutex, which is expected
to improve scalability when compared to the old Giant locking.
Another change is the unbuffered copying to userspace, which is both
used on TTY device nodes and PTY masters.

Upgrading should be quite straightforward. Unlike previous versions,
existing kernel configuration files do not need to be changed, except
when they reference device drivers that are listed in UPDATING.
