Fixed unsigned longs that should have been vm_offset_t.

vm_offset_t is currently unsigned long but should probably be plain
unsigned for i386's to match the choice of minimal types to represent
for fixed-width types in Lite2. Anyway, it shouldn't be assumed
to be unsigned long.

I only fixed the type mismatches that were detected when I changed
vm_offset_t to unsigned. Only pointer type mismatches were detected.

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 :)

Mega-commit for Linux emulator update.. This has been stress tested under
netscape-2.0 for Linux running all the Java stuff. The scrollbars are now
working, at least on my machine. (whew! :-)

I'm uncomfortable with the size of this commit, but it's too
inter-dependant to easily seperate out.

The main changes:

COMPAT_LINUX is *GONE*. Most of the code has been moved out of the i386
machine dependent section into the linux emulator itself. The int 0x80
syscall code was almost identical to the lcall 7,0 code and a minor tweak
allows them to both be used with the same C code. All kernels can now
just modload the lkm and it'll DTRT without having to rebuild the kernel
first. Like IBCS2, you can statically compile it in with "options LINUX".

A pile of new syscalls implemented, including getdents(), llseek(),
readv(), writev(), msync(), personality(). The Linux-ELF libraries want
to use some of these.

linux_select() now obeys Linux semantics, ie: returns the time remaining
of the timeout value rather than leaving it the original value.

Quite a few bugs removed, including incorrect arguments being used in
syscalls.. eg: mixups between passing the sigset as an int, vs passing
it as a pointer and doing a copyin(), missing return values, unhandled
cases, SIOC* ioctls, etc.

The build for the code has changed. i386/conf/files now knows how
to build linux_genassym and generate linux_assym.h on the fly.

Supporting changes elsewhere in the kernel:

The user-mode signal trampoline has moved from the U area to immediately
below the top of the stack (below PS_STRINGS). This allows the different
binary emulations to have their own signal trampoline code (which gets rid
of the hardwired syscall 103 (sigreturn on BSD, syslog on Linux)) and so
that the emulator can provide the exact "struct sigcontext *" argument to
the program's signal handlers.

The sigstack's "ss_flags" now uses SS_DISABLE and SS_ONSTACK flags, which
have the same values as the re-used SA_DISABLE and SA_ONSTACK which are
intended for sigaction only. This enables the support of a SA_RESETHAND
flag to sigaction to implement the gross SYSV and Linux SA_ONESHOT signal
semantics where the signal handler is reset when it's triggered.

makesyscalls.sh no longer appends the struct sysentvec on the end of the
generated init_sysent.c code. It's a lot saner to have it in a seperate
file rather than trying to update the structure inside the awk script. :-)

At exec time, the dozen bytes or so of signal trampoline code are copied
to the top of the user's stack, rather than obtaining the trampoline code
the old way by getting a clone of the parent's user area. This allows
Linux and native binaries to freely exec each other without getting
trampolines mixed up.

This is an extract of changes from what I am currently running...
- Optimise the linux a.out loading and uselib system calls so they
take advantage of some of John's recent interface improvements.
Basically, this means they make far less map changes than before.
- Attempt to plug some potentially nasty kernel_map memory leaks..
- Improve support for QMAGIC libs (I only use QMAGIC (ie: a.out libraries from
the slackware 3.0 dist) but this depends on other changes to enhance
the /compat/linux support)
- uselib goes out through a single exit as part of the resource tracking
that I did when closing the resource leaks on errors. This could be
cleaner than what I did, but making a 30-deep nested if/else was not my
idea of fun, neither did I want to repeat the same code 30 times over for
each failure possibility. I guess this function needs to be split into
smaller functions to solve this.

I've been running the Linux Netscape-2.0 (with Java) to test this, and apart
from the long-standing problem with the missing scrollbars, it appears to
still work as before with ZMAGIC libs (and the leaks).. However, I've
been using it with mods for the signal trampoline code for native linux stack
frames on signals and exterminated the blasted sigreturn printf() problem,
so I can't be certain that there is not a dependency on something else.

All:

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.

First incarnation of our Linux emulator or rather compatibility code.
This first shot only incorporaties so much functionality that DOOM
can run (the X version), signal handling is VERY weak, so is many
other things. But it meets my milestone number one (you guessed it
- running DOOM).

Uses /compat/linux as prefix for loading shared libs, so it won't
conflict with our own libs.

Kernel must be compiled with "options COMPAT_LINUX" for this to work.

Remove this argument and pass curthread directly to underlying
VOP_LOCK1() VFS method. This modify makes the code cleaner and in
particular remove an annoying dependence helping next lockmgr() cleanup.
KPI results, obviously, changed.

Manpage and FreeBSD_version will be updated through further commits.

As a side note, would be valuable to say that next commits will address
a similar cleanup about VFS methods, in particular vop_lock1 and
vop_unlock.

Fix for the panic("vm_thread_new: kstack allocation failed") and
silent NULL pointer dereference in the i386 and sparc64 pmap_pinit()
when the kmem_alloc_nofault() failed to allocate address space. Both
functions now return error instead of panicing or dereferencing NULL.

As consequence, vmspace_exec() and vmspace_unshare() returns the errno
int. struct vmspace arg was added to vm_forkproc() to avoid dealing
with failed allocation when most of the fork1() job is already done.

The kernel stack for the thread is now set up in the thread_alloc(),
that itself may return NULL. Also, allocation of the first process
thread is performed in the fork1() to properly deal with stack
allocation failure. proc_linkup() is separated into proc_linkup()
called from fork1(), and proc_linkup0(), that is used to set up the
kernel process (was known as swapper).

Locking for the per-process resource limits structure.
- struct plimit includes a mutex to protect a reference count. The plimit
structure is treated similarly to struct ucred in that is is always copy
on write, so having a reference to a structure is sufficient to read from
it without needing a further lock.
- The proc lock protects the p_limit pointer and must be held while reading
limits from a process to keep the limit structure from changing out from
under you while reading from it.
- Various global limits that are ints are not protected by a lock since
int writes are atomic on all the archs we support and thus a lock
wouldn't buy us anything.
- All accesses to individual resource limits from a process are abstracted
behind a simple lim_rlimit(), lim_max(), and lim_cur() API that return
either an rlimit, or the current or max individual limit of the specified
resource from a process.
- dosetrlimit() was renamed to kern_setrlimit() to match existing style of
other similar syscall helper functions.
- The alpha OSF/1 compat layer no longer calls getrlimit() and setrlimit()
(it didn't used the stackgap when it should have) but uses lim_rlimit()
and kern_setrlimit() instead.
- The svr4 compat no longer uses the stackgap for resource limits calls,
but uses lim_rlimit() and kern_setrlimit() instead.
- The ibcs2 compat no longer uses the stackgap for resource limits. It
also no longer uses the stackgap for accessing sysctl's for the
ibcs2_sysconf() syscall but uses kernel_sysctl() instead. As a result,
ibcs2_sysconf() no longer needs Giant.
- The p_rlimit macro no longer exists.
