the default ICMPv6 filter is pass all, test that we can set it to block
all and restore to pass all. No attempt is made to test that the
filtering works, just that we can get and set it.
I wrote these to test amd64 asm functions that used
maxss, maxsd, minss, and minsd, but it turns out that
those instructions don't handle NaNs and signed zero
in the same way as fmin() and fmax() are required to,
so we're stuck with the C versions for now.
The first test comes from OpenBSD, and the others are additions or
adaptations.
This is based on OpenBSD's
src/regress/lib/libc/sprintf/sprintf_test.c, v1.3.
I deliberately did not use v1.4 because it's bogus.
semaphores. Specifically, semaphores are now represented as new file
descriptor type that is set to close on exec. This removes the need for
all of the manual process reference counting (and fork, exec, and exit
event handlers) as the normal file descriptor operations handle all of
that for us nicely. It is also suggested as one possible implementation
in the spec and at least one other OS (OS X) uses this approach.
Some bugs that were fixed as a result include:
- References to a named semaphore whose name is removed still work after
the sem_unlink() operation. Prior to this patch, if a semaphore's name
was removed, valid handles from sem_open() would get EINVAL errors from
sem_getvalue(), sem_post(), etc. This fixes that.
- Unnamed semaphores created with sem_init() were not cleaned up when a
process exited or exec'd. They were only cleaned up if the process
did an explicit sem_destroy(). This could result in a leak of semaphore
objects that could never be cleaned up.
- On the other hand, if another process guessed the id (kernel pointer to
'struct ksem' of an unnamed semaphore (created via sem_init)) and had
write access to the semaphore based on UID/GID checks, then that other
process could manipulate the semaphore via sem_destroy(), sem_post(),
sem_wait(), etc.
- As part of the permission check (UID/GID), the umask of the proces
creating the semaphore was not honored. Thus if your umask denied group
read/write access but the explicit mode in the sem_init() call allowed
it, the semaphore would be readable/writable by other users in the
same group, for example. This includes access via the previous bug.
- If the module refused to unload because there were active semaphores,
then it might have deregistered one or more of the semaphore system
calls before it noticed that there was a problem. I'm not sure if
this actually happened as the order that modules are discovered by the
kernel linker depends on how the actual .ko file is linked. One can
make the order deterministic by using a single module with a mod_event
handler that explicitly registers syscalls (and deregisters during
unload after any checks). This also fixes a race where even if the
sem_module unloaded first it would have destroyed locks that the
syscalls might be trying to access if they are still executing when
they are unloaded.
XXX: By the way, deregistering system calls doesn't do any blocking
to drain any threads from the calls.
- Some minor fixes to errno values on error. For example, sem_init()
isn't documented to return ENFILE or EMFILE if we run out of semaphores
the way that sem_open() can. Instead, it should return ENOSPC in that
case.
Other changes:
- Kernel semaphores now use a hash table to manage the namespace of
named semaphores nearly in a similar fashion to the POSIX shared memory
object file descriptors. Kernel semaphores can now also have names
longer than 14 chars (up to MAXPATHLEN) and can include subdirectories
in their pathname.
- The UID/GID permission checks for access to a named semaphore are now
done via vaccess() rather than a home-rolled set of checks.
- Now that kernel semaphores have an associated file object, the various
MAC checks for POSIX semaphores accept both a file credential and an
active credential. There is also a new posixsem_check_stat() since it
is possible to fstat() a semaphore file descriptor.
- A small set of regression tests (using the ksem API directly) is present
in src/tools/regression/posixsem.

provides the correct semantics for flock(2) style locks which are used by the
lockf(1) command line tool and the pidfile(3) library. It also implements
recovery from server restarts and ensures that dirty cache blocks are written
to the server before obtaining locks (allowing multiple clients to use file
locking to safely share data).

AIO calls.
This small program queues up a controllable number of concurrent AIO
read operations w/ controllable io size against a disk or regular file.
There are a few other things to add (notably optional write support!)
but it works well enough at the present time to stress the AIO code out
relatively harshly in the disk IO case.

Use the correct value of errno. Although the errno value passed into
printf() follows the *env() call, it is not guaranteed to be the errno
from that call. When I wrote the regression tester, the environment I
used did pass the errno from the call. Consolidate the print for the
return code and errno into a function in the process of fixing this.

- Process (a) is blocked in read on a socket waiting on data.
- Process (b) is blocked in shutdown() on a socket waiting on (a).
- Process (c) delivers a signal to (b) interrupting its wait.
When the signal is delivered, the kernel panics as sblock() fails in
sorflush(). Even if it didn't panic, shutdown() would block potentially
indefinitely waiting for recv() to succeeded. Fixes to follow.
