On case-insensitive file systems (most likely to be seen on macOS, where
it is the default), _Fork.o for the new POSIX _Fork function conflicts
with _fork.o for the PSEUDO file. This results in non-determinsitic
behaviour in terms of which ends up being present; if _Fork.o wins then
the build fails to link libc.so due to missing __sys_fork, and if
_fork.o wins then libc silently fails to include the implementation of
_Fork. A similar issue occurred in the past for C99's _Exit conflicting
with exit(2) and was fixed in cb1cb6a2a8, so this adds a fix based on
that.
As a longer-term solution it might be better to instead make the
generated files use a different prefix that's less likely to conflict
with other things (such as __sys_foo.o given they always contain that)
but that's a rather more invasive change.

Linux standardized what we call CLOCK_{REALTIME,MONOTONIC}_FAST as
CLOCK_{REALTIME,MONOTONIC}_COARSE. In addition, Linux spells
CLOCK_UPTIME as CLOCK_BOOTTIME.
Add aliases to time.h and document these new aliases in
clock_gettime(2).

The early environment is typically cleared, so these new options
need the PRESERVE_EARLY_KENV kernel config(8) option. These environments

Previously, a negative change list length would be treated the same as
an empty change list. A negative event list length would result in
bogus copyouts. Make kevent(2) return EINVAL for both cases so that
application bugs are more easily found, and to be more robust against
future changes to kevent internals.

SO_RERROR indicates that receive buffer overflows should be handled as
errors. Historically receive buffer overflows have been ignored and
programs could not tell if they missed messages or messages had been
truncated because of overflows. Since programs historically do not
expect to get receive overflow errors, this behavior is not the
default.
This is really really important for programs that use route(4) to keep
in sync with the system. If we loose a message then we need to reload
the full system state, otherwise the behaviour from that point is
undefined and can lead to chasing bogus bug reports.

It was reported that getdirentries(2) was
returning dirents with d_off set to 0 for an NFS
mount.
This is believed to be correct behaviour at
this time (it may change for some NFS mounts
in the future), but is inconsistent with what the
getdirentries(2) man page says.
This patch fixes the man page.
This is a content change.

jail_attach(2) performs an internal chroot operation, leaving it up to
the calling process to assure the working directory is inside the jail.
Add a matching internal chdir operation to the jail's root. Also
ignore kern.chroot_allow_open_directories, and always disallow the
operation if there are any directory descriptors open.

Previously, we would accept any kind of LIO_* opcode, including ones
that were intended for in-kernel use only like LIO_SYNC (which is not
defined in userland). The situation became more serious with
022ca2fc7f. After that revision, setting
aio_lio_opcode to LIO_WRITEV or LIO_READV would trigger an assertion.
Note that POSIX does not specify what should happen if aio_lio_opcode is
invalid.

aio_fsync(O_DSYNC, ...) is the asynchronous version of fdatasync(2).
Reviewed by: kib, asomers, jhb
Differential Review: https://reviews.freebsd.org/D25071
POSIX O_DSYNC means that writes include an implicit fdatasync(2), just
as O_SYNC implies fsync(2).
VOP_WRITE() functions that understand the new IO_DATASYNC flag can act
accordingly, but we'll still pass down IO_SYNC so that file systems that
don't understand it will continue to provide the stronger O_SYNC
behaviour.
Flag also applies to fcntl(2).

POSIX AIO is great, but it lacks vectored I/O functions. This commit
fixes that shortcoming by adding aio_writev and aio_readv. They aren't
part of the standard, but they're an obvious extension. They work just
like their synchronous equivalents pwritev and preadv.
It isn't yet possible to use vectored aiocbs with lio_listio, but that
could be added in the future.
