the type argument to *_HEAD and *_ENTRY is a struct.

Correct prototypes to match POSIX. Correct return code for aio_cancel.
Submitted by: Alex Nash <nash@mcs.com>

Clean up some lint associated with the AIO code.

Ouch!!! This should fix a serious build problem after the addition of the
new preliminary AIO support. Unfortunately, I had a stray copy of aio.h
that made me think that things worked.

Rather than using a char array with explicit assumptions about the layout
of 'struct osigevent' in 'struct aiocb', use int and void pointer spare
members that are identical to 'struct osigevent'.

will use at_exit(9).

Add functions at_exec(9), rm_at_exec(9) which function nearly the
same as at_exec(9) and rm_at_exec(9), these functions are called
on behalf of modules at the time of execve(2) after the image
activator has run.

Use a modified version of tegge's suggestion via at_exec(9) to close
an exploitable race in AIO.

Fix SYSCALL_MODULE_HELPER such that it's archetecuterally neutral,
the problem was that one had to pass it a paramater indicating the
number of arguments which were actually the number of "int". Fix
it by using an inline version of the AS macro against the syscall
arguments. (AS should be available globally but we'll get to that
later.)

Add a primative system for dynamically adding kqueue ops, it's really
not as sophisticated as it should be, but I'll discuss with jlemon when

When aio_read/write() is used on a raw device, physical buffers are
used for up to "vfs.aio.max_buf_aio" of the requests. If a request
size is MAXPHYS, but the request base isn't page aligned, vmapbuf()
will map the end of the user space buffer into the start of the kva
allocated for the next physical buffer. Don't use a physical buffer
in this case. (This change addresses problem report 25617.)

When an aio_read/write() on a raw device has completed, timeout() is
used to schedule a signal to the process. Thus, the reporting is
delayed up to 10 ms (assuming hz is 100). The process might have
terminated in the meantime, causing a trap 12 when attempting to
deliver the signal. Thus, the timeout must be cancelled when removing
the job.

aio jobs in state JOBST_JOBQGLOBAL should be removed from the
kaio_jobqueue list during process rundown.

During process rundown, some aio jobs might move from one list to a
different list that has already been "emptied", causing the rundown to
be incomplete. Retry the rundown.

A call to BUF_KERNPROC() is needed after obtaining a physical buffer
to disassociate the lock from the running process since it can return
to userland without releasing that lock.
