spdx: initial adoption of licensing ID tags.

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.

Special thanks to Wind River for providing access to "The Duke of
Highlander" tool: an older (2014) run over FreeBSD tree was useful as a
starting point.

Initially, only tag files that use BSD 4-Clause "Original" license.

# 13e5e6b6 30-Aug-2017 John Baldwin <jhb@FreeBSD.org>

Decode signal information returned by system calls.

Specifically, decode the siginfo structure returned by sigtimedwait(),
sigwaitinfo(), and wait6(). While here, also decode the signal number
returned in the second argument to sigwait().

# 9289f547 17-Oct-2016 John Baldwin <jhb@FreeBSD.org>

Move mksubr from kdump into libsysdecode.

Restructure this script so that it generates a header of tables instead
of a source file. The tables are included in a flags.c source file which
provides functions to decode various system call arguments.

For functions that decode an enumeration, the function returns a pointer
to a string for known values and NULL for unknown values.

For functions that do more complex decoding (typically of a bitmask), the
function accepts a pointer to a FILE object (open_memstream() can be used
as a string builder) to which decoded values are written. If the
function operates on a bitmask, the function returns true if any bits
were decoded or false if the entire value was valid. Additionally, the
third argument accepts a pointer to a value to which any undecoded bits
are stored. This pointer can be NULL if the caller doesn't care about
remaining bits.

Convert kdump over to using decoder functions from libsysdecode instead of
mksubr. truss also uses decoders from libsysdecode instead of private
lookup tables, though lookup tables for objects not decoded by kdump remain
in truss for now. Eventually most of these tables should move into
libsysdecode as the automated table generation approach from mksubr is
less stale than the static tables in truss.

Some changes have been made to truss and kdump output:
- The flags passed to open() are now properly decoded in that one of
O_RDONLY, O_RDWR, O_WRONLY, or O_EXEC is always included in a decoded
mask.
- Optional arguments to open(), openat(), and fcntl() are only printed
in kdump if they exist (e.g. the mode is only printed for open() if
O_CREAT is set in the flags).
- Print argument to F_GETLK/SETLK/SETLKW in kdump as a pointer, not int.
- Include all procctl() commands.
- Correctly decode pipe2() flags in truss by not assuming full
open()-like flags with O_RDONLY, etc.
- Decode file flags passed to *chflags() as file flags (UF_* and SF_*)
rather than as a file mode.
- Fix decoding of quotactl() commands by splitting out the two command
components instead of assuming the raw command value matches the
primary command component.

In addition, truss and kdump now build without triggering any warnings.
All of the sysdecode manpages now include the required headers in the
synopsis.

# d70876fd 23-Feb-2016 John Baldwin <jhb@FreeBSD.org>

Add support for displaying thread IDs to truss(1).

- Consolidate duplicate code for printing the metadata at the start of
each line into a shared function.
- Add an -H option which will log the thread ID of the relevant thread
for each event.

While here, remove some extraneous calls to clock_gettime() in
print_syscall() and print_syscall_ret(). The caller of print_syscall_ret()
always updates the current thread's "after" time before it is called.

# 2b75c8ad 30-Sep-2015 John Baldwin <jhb@FreeBSD.org>

Several changes to truss.
- Refactor the interface between the ABI-independent code and the
ABI-specific backends. The backends now provide smaller hooks to
fetch system call arguments and return values. The rest of the
system call entry and exit handling that was previously duplicated
among all the backends has been moved to one place.
- Merge the loop when waiting for an event with the loop for handling stops.
This also means not emulating a procfs-like interface on top of ptrace().
Instead, use a single event loop that fetches process events via waitid().
Among other things this allows us to report the full 32-bit exit value.
- Use PT_FOLLOW_FORK to follow new child processes instead of forking a new
truss process for each new child. This allows one truss process to monitor
a tree of processes and truss -c should now display one total for the
entire tree instead of separate summaries per process.
- Use the recently added fields to ptrace_lwpinfo to determine the current
system call number and argument count. The latter is especially useful
and fixes a regression since the conversion from procfs. truss now
generally prints the correct number of arguments for most system calls
rather than printing extra arguments for any call not listed in the
table in syscalls.c.
- Actually check the new ABI when processes call exec. The comments claimed
that this happened but it was not being done (perhaps this was another
regression in the conversion to ptrace()). If the new ABI after exec
is not supported, truss detaches from the process. If truss does not
support the ABI for a newly executed process the process is killed
before it returns from exec.
- Along with the refactor, teach the various ABI-specific backends to
fetch both return values, not just the first. Use this to properly
report the full 64-bit return value from lseek(). In addition, the
handler for "pipe" now pulls the pair of descriptors out of the
return values (which is the true kernel system call interface) but
displays them as an argument (which matches the interface exported by
libc).
- Each ABI handler adds entries to a linker set rather than requiring
a statically defined table of handlers in main.c.
- The arm and mips system call fetching code was changed to follow the
same pattern as amd64 (and the in-kernel handler) of fetching register
arguments first and then reading any remaining arguments from the
stack. This should fix indirect system call arguments on at least
arm.
- The mipsn32 and n64 ABIs will now look for arguments in A4 through A7.
- Use register %ebp for the 6th system call argument for Linux/i386 ABIs
to match the in-kernel argument fetch code.
- For powerpc binaries on a powerpc64 system, fetch the extra arguments
on the stack as 32-bit values that are then copied into the 64-bit
argument array instead of reading the 32-bit values directly into the
64-bit array.

# c04743da 21-Oct-2011 Dag-Erling Smørgrav <des@FreeBSD.org>

It turns out that truss also used kdump's mkioctls script, and expected
ioctlname() to return a pointer to the name rather than print it. This did
not show up in testing because truss had its own prototype for ioctlname(),
so it would build fine and run fine as long as the program being traced did
not issue an ioctl.

Teach mkioctls to generate different versions of ioctlname() based on its
first command-line argument.

Create the altix project branch. The altix project will add support
for the SGI Altix 350 to FreeBSD/ia64. The hardware used for porting

# 1bcb5f5a 08-Nov-2003 Marcel Moolenaar <marcel@FreeBSD.org>

Port truss(1) to 64-bit architectures:
o Syscall return values do not fit in int on 64-bit architectures.
Change the type of retval in <arch>_syscall_exit() to long and
change the prototype of said function to return a long as well.
o Change the prototype of print_syscall_ret() to take a long for
the return address and change the format string accordingly.
o Replace the code sequence
tmp = malloc(X);
sprintf(tmp, format, ...);
with X by definition too small on 64-bit platforms by
asprintf(&tmp, format, ...);

With these changes the output makes sense again, although it does
mess up the tabulation on ia64. Go widescreen...
