* aio_fsync(2): Support O_DSYNC.Thomas Munro2021-01-081-4/+14
| | | | | | | aio_fsync(O_DSYNC, ...) is the asynchronous version of fdatasync(2). Reviewed by: kib, asomers, jhb Differential Review: https://reviews.freebsd.org/D25071
* open(2): Add O_DSYNC flag.Thomas Munro2021-01-082-9/+30
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | 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). Reviewed by: kib, delphij Differential Revision: https://reviews.freebsd.org/D25090
* Add aio_writev and aio_readvAlan Somers2021-01-036-24/+116
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | 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. Reviewed by: jhb, kib, bcr Relnotes: yes Differential Revision: https://reviews.freebsd.org/D27743
* copy_file_range(2): add recommendation to use large "len"Rick Macklem2021-01-031-1/+10
| | | | | | | | | | | | | PR#252358 reported a serious performance problem w.r.t. cp(1) when copying large non-sparse files. This problem appears to have been caused by cp(1) calling copy_file_range(2) with a small "len" argument. This patch adds a recommendation to use a large "len" value where possible, for performance reasons. Reviewed by: asomers Differential Revision: https://reviews.freebsd.org/D27935

Explicitly document the syscall behavior per the current implementation in sys/kern/vfs_extattr.c so others can better develop based on its explicit documented behavior instead of having to digest the context of the manpage to understand the appropriate behavior.

* memfd_create: simplify HUGETLB support a little bitKyle Evans2020-09-111-45/+14
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | This also fixes a minor issue that was missed in the initial review; the layout of the MFD_HUGE_* flags is actually not 1:1 bit:flag -- it instead borrowed the Linux convention of how this is laid out since it was originally implemented on Linux, the top 6 bits represent the shift required for the requested page size. This allows us to remove the flag <-> pgsize mapping table and simplify the logic just prior to validation of the requested page size. While we're here, fix two small nits: - HUGETLB memfd shouldn't exhibit the SHM_GROW_ON_WRITE behavior. We can only grow largepage shm by appropriately aligned (i.e. requested pagesize) sizes, so it can't work in the typical/sane fashion. Furthermore, Linux does the same, so let's be compatible. - We don't allow MFD_HUGETLB without specifying a pagesize, so no need to check for that later.

Fix our version to do the same, bump the symbol version due to ABI change and provide compat. This was reported to break compilation of Ruby 2.8. Some discussion about the necessity of the ABI compat did take place in the review. While many 64-bit platforms would likely be passing it in a 64-bit register and zero-extended and thus, not notice ABI breakage, some do sign-extend (e.g. mips).

* Include the psind in data returned by mincore(2).Mark Johnston2020-09-021-3/+25
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | Currently we use a single bit to indicate whether the virtual page is part of a superpage. To support a forthcoming implementation of non-transparent 1GB superpages, it is useful to provide more detailed information about large page sizes. The change converts MINCORE_SUPER into a mask for MINCORE_PSIND(psind) values, indicating a mapping of size psind, where psind is an index into the pagesizes array returned by getpagesizes(3), which in turn comes from the hw.pagesizes sysctl. MINCORE_PSIND(1) is equal to the old value of MINCORE_SUPER. For now, two bits are used to record the page size, permitting values of MAXPAGESIZES up to 4.

| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | Chroot appeared during the development of 7th edition Unix. The FreeBSD jail documents, incorrectly, that Bill Joy added this to 4.2BSD on 18 March 1982. That was when Bill Joy converted from a statically coded system call glue to dynamically generated assembler. Chroot was present in 32V, 3BSD, 4.0BSD, 4.1BSD and 4.1cBSD well in advance of this. Kirk McKusick agrees with this analysis.

| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | This commit adds the priv(9) that waters down the sysctl to make it only allow read(2) of a dirfd by the system root. Jailed root is not allowed, but jail policy and superuser policy will abstain from allowing/denying it so that a MAC module can fully control the policy. Such a MAC module has been written, and can be found at: https://people.freebsd.org/~kevans/mac_read_dir-0.1.0.tar.gz It is expected that the MAC module won't be needed by many, as most only need to do such diagnostics that require this behavior as system root anyways. Interested parties are welcome to grab the MAC module above and create a port or locally integrate it, and with enough support it could see introduction to base. As noted in mac_read_dir.c, it is released under the BSD 2 clause license and allows the restrictions to be lifted for only jailed root or for all unprivileged users.
