Implement rfork(!RFPROC !RFMEM), which allows a thread to divorce its memory
from the other threads of a group.
Implement rfork(!RFPROC RFCFDG), which closes all file descriptors, eliminating
possible existing shares with other threads/processes.
Implement rfork(!RFPROC RFFDG), which divorces the file descriptors for a
thread from the rest of the group.
Fix the case where a thread does an exec. It is almost nonsense for a thread
to modify the other threads address space by an exec, so we
now automatically divorce the address space before modifying it.

cookies to find the correct offset to use for subsequent reads. Without it,
linux /bin/ls tends to loop re-reading the same block over and over again.

changes, so don't expect to be able to run the kernel as-is (very well)
without the appropriate Lite/2 userland changes.
The system boots and can mount UFS filesystems.
Untested: ext2fs, msdosfs, NFS
Known problems: Incorrect Berkeley ID strings in some files.
Mount_std mounts will not work until the getfsent
library routine is changed.

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.
Broke locking on named pipes in the same way as locking on non-vnodes
(wrong errno). This will be fixed later.
The fix involves negative logic. Named pipes are now distinguished from
other types of files with vnodes, and there is additional code to handle
vnodes and named pipes in the same way only where that makes sense (not
for lseek, locking or TIOCSCTTY).
list of IP setsockopts the Linux emulator recognizes.
Explicitly disallow IP_HDRINCL since Linux's handling of
raw output is different than BSD's.

the one place that depended on it. wakeup() is now prototyped in
<sys/systm.h> so that it is normally visible.
Added nested include of <sys/queue.h> in <vm/vm_object.h>. The queue
macros are a more fundamental prerequisite for <vm/vm_object.h> than
the wakeup prototype and previously happened to be included by
namespace pollution from <sys/proc.h> or elsewhere.
so that the compiler can see that it is OK to use const strings in

Removed the casts that hid the non-problem. Didn't fix the missing

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.
To complete this, some extra state has to be kept somewhere so that the
B38400 flag in Linux can be correctly translated to/from either 38400,
57600 or 115200.

this code was not quite right (linux has a readdir and getdents syscall,
with the same args. readdir only returns one entry and uses a mutant
dirent structure. This code was also returning the mutant form for
getdents as well. My fault for missing this before.)
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 :)
Also, LINUX_POSIX_VDISABLE is \0, FreeBSD's is 0xff. Convert between them.
This enables some more programs to run, including the Livingston Portmaster
utilities (PMtools).
