These provide standard APIs, but are implemented using another system
call (e.g., pipe implemented in terms of pipe2) or are interposed by the
threading library to support cancelation.
After discussion with kib (see D44111), I've concluded that it is
better to keep most public interfaces in libc with as little

libc/<arch>/sys/Makefile.inc -> libsys/<arch>/Makefile.sys.
Require that libsys/<arch>/Makefile.sys exist. At least for current
archtiectures, it's not possible for an architecture to not have and MD
syscall bits.
powerpcspe/Makefile.sys's structure means it had to be modified when moved
so rename detection won't work, but it has trivial contents so the

Both system calls were stubs returning EOPNOTSUPP and libc did not

Having the symbols exported by libc differ between i386 and amd64 lib32
is questionable. Since these files build just fine today, stop guarding
them with !defined(COMPAT_32BIT). Whether or not they work at run time
is a different matter, but an i386 jail would be similarly affected if
not, so that's not a problem with lib32.

If dso uses initial exec TLS mode, rtld tries to allocate TLS in
static space. If there is no space left, the dlopen(3) fails. If space
if allocated, initial content from PT_TLS segment is distributed to
all threads' pcbs, which was missed and caused un-initialized TLS
segment for such dso after dlopen(3).
The mode is auto-detected either due to the relocation used, or if the
DF_STATIC_TLS dynamic flag is set. In the later case, the TLS segment
is tried to allocate earlier, which increases chance of the dlopen(3)
to succeed. LLD was recently fixed to properly emit the flag, ld.bdf
did it always.

Previously, libc.so would initialize its notion of the break address
using _end, a special symbol emitted by the static linker following
the bss section. Compatibility issues between lld and ld.bfd could
cause the wrong definition of _end (libc.so's definition rather than
that of the executable) to be used, breaking the brk()/sbrk()
interface.
Avoid this problem and future interoperability issues by simply not
relying on _end. Instead, modify the break() system call to return
the kernel's view of the current break address, and have libc
initialize its state using an extra syscall upon the first use of the
interface. As a side effect, this appears to fix brk()/sbrk() usage
in executables run with rtld direct exec, since the kernel and libc.so
no longer maintain separate views of the process' break address.

Originally, on the VAX exect() enable tracing once the new executable
image was loaded. This was possible because tracing was controllable
through user space code by setting the PSL_T flag. The following
instruction is a system call that activated tracing (as all
instructions do) by copying PSL_T to PSL_TP (trace pending). The
first instruction of the new executable image would trigger a trace
fault.
This is not portable to all platforms and the behavior was replaced with
ptrace(PT_TRACE_ME, ...) since FreeBSD forked off of the CSRG repository.
Platforms either incorrectly call execve(), trigger trace faults inside
the original executable, or do contain an implementation of this
function.
The exect() interfaces is deprecated or removed on NetBSD and OpenBSD.
