Ben Gras 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

.Dt NFSSVC 2
.Os
.Sh NAME
.Nm nfssvc
.Nd NFS services
.Sh LIBRARY
.Lb libc
.Sh SYNOPSIS
.In unistd.h
.In nfs/nfs.h
.Ft int
.Fn nfssvc "int flags" "void *argstructp"
.Sh DESCRIPTION
The
.Fn nfssvc
function is used by the NFS daemons to pass information into and out
of the kernel and also to enter the kernel as a server daemon.
The
.Fa flags
argument consists of several bits that show what action is to be taken
once in the kernel and the
.Fa argstructp
points to one of three structures depending on which bits are set in
flags.
.Ss Calls used by Xr nfsd 8
On the server side,
.Fn nfssvc
is called with the flag
.Dv NFSSVC_NFSD
and a pointer to a
.Bd -literal
struct nfsd_srvargs {
struct nfsd *nsd_nfsd; /* Pointer to in kernel nfsd struct */
uid_t nsd_uid; /* Effective uid mapped to cred */
u_long nsd_haddr; /* Ip address of client */
struct ucred nsd_cr; /* Cred. uid maps to */
int nsd_authlen; /* Length of auth string (ret) */
char *nsd_authstr; /* Auth string (ret) */
};
.Ed
.Pp
to enter the kernel as an
.Xr nfsd 8
daemon.
Whenever an
.Xr nfsd 8
daemon receives a Kerberos authentication ticket, it will return from
.Fn nfssvc
with errno set to
.Er ENEEDAUTH .
The
.Xr nfsd 8
will attempt to authenticate the ticket and generate a set of credentials
on the server for the
.Dq user id
specified in the field nsd_uid.
This is done by first authenticating the Kerberos ticket and then mapping
the Kerberos principal to a local name and getting a set of credentials for
that user via
.Xr getpwnam 3
and
.Xr getgrouplist 3 .
If successful, the
.Xr nfsd 8
will call
.Fn nfssvc
with the
.Dv NFSSVC_NFSD
and
.Dv NFSSVC_AUTHIN
flags set to pass the credential mapping in nsd_cr into the
kernel to be cached on the server socket for that client.
If the authentication failed,
.Xr nfsd 8
calls
.Fn nfssvc
with the flags
.Dv NFSSVC_NFSD
and
.Dv NFSSVC_AUTHINFAIL
to denote an authentication failure.
.Pp
The master
.Xr nfsd 8
server daemon calls
.Fn nfssvc
with the flag
.Dv NFSSVC_ADDSOCK
and a pointer to a
.Bd -literal
struct nfsd_args {
int sock; /* Socket to serve */
caddr_t name; /* Client address for connection based sockets */
int namelen; /* Length of name */
};
.Ed
.Pp
to pass a server side
.Tn NFS
socket into the kernel for servicing by the
.Xr nfsd 8
daemons.
.Ss Calls used by Xr mountd 8
The
.Xr mountd 8
server daemon calls
.Fn nfssvc
with the flag
.Dv NFSSVC_SETEXPORTSLIST
and a pointer to a
.Ft struct mountd_exports_list
object to atomically change the exports lists of a specific file system.
This structure has the following fields:
.Bl -tag -width ".Vt const char *mel_path"
.It Vt const char *mel_path
Path to the file system that will have its exports list replaced by the
one described in the other fields.
.It Vt size_t mel_nexports
Number of valid entries in the
.Vt mel_export
field.
If zero, the exports list will be cleared for the given file system.
.It Vt struct export_args mel_export[AF_MAX]
Set of exports to be used for the given file system.
.El
.Sh RETURN VALUES
Usually
.Nm
does not return unless the server
is terminated by a signal when a value of 0 is returned.
Otherwise, \-1 is returned and the global variable
.Va errno
is set to specify the error.
.Sh ERRORS
.Bl -tag -width Er
.It Bq Er ENEEDAUTH
This special error value is really used for authentication support,
particularly Kerberos, as explained above.
.It Bq Er EPERM
The caller is not the super-user.
.El
.Sh SEE ALSO
.Xr mount_nfs 8 ,
.Xr nfsd 8
.Sh HISTORY
The
.Nm
function first appeared in
.Bx 4.4 .
.Sh BUGS
The
.Nm
system call is designed specifically for the
.Tn NFS
support daemons and as such is specific to their requirements.
It should really return values to indicate the need for authentication
support, since
.Er ENEEDAUTH
is not really an error.
Several fields of the argument structures are assumed to be valid and
sometimes to be unchanged from a previous call, such that
.Nm
must be used with extreme care.
