769af57274 further libexec generalization
. new mode for sys_memset: include process so memset can be
	  done in physical or virtual address space.
	. add a mode to mmap() that lets a process allocate uninitialized
	  memory.
	. this allows an exec()er (RS, VFS, etc.) to request uninitialized
	  memory from VM and selectively clear the ranges that don't come
	  from a file, leaving no uninitialized memory left for the process
	  to see.
	. use callbacks for clearing the process, clearing memory in the
	  process, and copying into the process; so that the libexec code
	  can be used from rs, vfs, and in the future, kernel (to load vm)
	  and vm (to load boot-time processes)

040362e379 exec() cleanup, generalization, improvement
. make exec() callers (i.e. vfs and rs) determine the
	  memory layout by explicitly reserving regions using
	  mmap() calls on behalf of the exec()ing process,
	  i.e. handling all of the exec logic, thereby eliminating
	  all special exec() knowledge from VM.
	. the new procedure is: clear the exec()ing process
	  first, then call third-party mmap()s to reserve memory, then
	  copy the executable file section contents in, all using callbacks
	  tailored to the caller's way of starting an executable
	. i.e. no more explicit EXEC_NEWMEM-style calls in PM or VM
	  as with rigid 2-section arguments
	. this naturally allows generalizing exec() by simply loading
	  all ELF sections
	. drop/merge of lots of duplicate exec() code into libexec
	. not copying the code sections to vfs and into the executable
	  again is a measurable performance improvement (about 3.3% faster
	  for 'make' in src/servers/)

ee4016155e vm: add third-party mmap() mode and PROCCTL
these two functions will be used to support all exec() functionality
going into a single library shared by RS and VFS and exec() knowledge
leaving VM.

	. third-party mmap: allow certain processes (VFS, RS) to
	  do mmap() on behalf of another process
	. PROCCTL: used to free and clear a process' address space

7b81254069 VFS: simplify stat for pipes
According to POSIX the st_size field of struct stat is undefined for
fifos and anonymous pipes. Thus we can do anything we want. We save a
copy by not being accurate on pipe sizes.

ef7b484e5c Create SFFS library out of HGFS

72b7abd1a1 VFS - no CANCEL for async non-blocking operations
- if an operation (R, W, IOCTL) is non blocking, a flag is set
  and sent to the device.

- nothing changes for sync devices

- asyn devices should reply asap if an operation is non-blocking.
  We must trust the devices, but we had to trust them anyway to
  reply to CANCEL correctly

- we safe sending CANCEL commands to asyn devices. This greatly
  simplifies the protocol. Asynchronous devices can always reply
  when a reply is ready and do not need to deal with other
  situations

- currently, none of our drivers use the flags since they drive
  virtual devices which do not block

2fe8fb192f Full switch to clang/ELF. Drop ack. Simplify.
There is important information about booting non-ack images in
docs/UPDATING. ack/aout-format images can't be built any more, and
booting clang/ELF-format ones is a little different. Updating to the
new boot monitor is recommended.

Changes in this commit:

	. drop boot monitor -> allowing dropping ack support
	. facility to copy ELF boot files to /boot so that old boot monitor
	  can still boot fairly easily, see UPDATING
	. no more ack-format libraries -> single-case libraries
	. some cleanup of OBJECT_FMT, COMPILER_TYPE, etc cases
	. drop several ack toolchain commands, but not all support
	  commands (e.g. aal is gone but acksize is not yet).
	. a few libc files moved to netbsd libc dir
	. new /bin/date as minix date used code in libc/
	. test compile fix
	. harmonize includes
	. /usr/lib is no longer special: without ack, /usr/lib plays no
	  kind of special bootstrapping role any more and bootstrapping
	  is done exclusively through packages, so releases depend even
	  less on the state of the machine making them now.
	. rename nbsd_lib* to lib*
	. reduce mtree

490e0de548 Import librefuse and libpuffs
Import libpuffs and our port of libpuffs. The port was done as part of
GSoC 2011 FUSE project, done by Evgeniy Ivanov. The librefuse import
did not require any porting efforts. Libpuffs has been modified to
understand our VFS-FS protocol and translate between that and PUFFS. As
an example that it works, fuse-ntfs-3g from pkgsrc can be compiled and
used to mount ntfs partitions:
mount -t ntfs-3g <device> <mountpoint>

FUSE only works with the asynchronous version of VFS. See <docs/UPDATING> on
how to run AVFS.

This patch further includes some changes to mount(1) and mount(2) so it's
possible to use file systems provided by pkgsrc (note: manual modifications
to /etc/system.conf are still needed. There has been made an exception for
fuse-ntfs-3g, so it already as an entry).

a209c3ae12 Fix a ton of compiler warnings
This patch fixes most of current reasons to generate compiler warnings.
The changes consist of:
 - adding missing casts
 - hiding or unhiding function declarations
 - including headers where missing
 - add __UNCONST when assigning a const char * to a char *
 - adding missing return statements
 - changing some types from unsigned to signed, as the code seems to want
   signed ints
 - converting old-style function definitions to current style (i.e.,
   void func(param1, param2) short param1, param2; {...} to
   void func (short param1, short param2) {...})
 - making the compiler silent about signed vs unsigned comparisons. We
   have too many of those in the new libc to fix.

A number of bugs in the test set were fixed. These bugs were never
triggered with our old libc. Consequently, these tests are now forced to
link with the new libc or they will generate errors (in particular tests 43
and 55).

Most changes in NetBSD libc are limited to moving aroudn "#ifndef __minix"
or stuff related to Minix-specific things (code in sys-minix or gen/minix).
