In the world of containers, mounting a unix(4) socket is a common
practice to allow communication between processes within containers.
For example, both Podman and Docker can expose a unix(4) socket,
and that same unix(4) socket can be mounted as a file accessible
to a process inside a container, allowing that application to control
Podman or Docker. Another example is PHP-FPM with NGINX, where,
instead of using TCP/IP for communication between containers, a
unix(4) socket is sufficient.
However, nullfs(4) and all related components do not allow mounting
a VSOCK on top of another. The current workaround involves creating
the socket in a directory and mounting that directory. This is an
option, though it does not provide a good user experience compared
to directly mounting a VSOCK on top of another, since the application
that creates the socket may create other sockets in that directory,
and the user may not wish to share them, or, worse yet, applications
that create unix(4) sockets may not provide any authentication at
all, as they may assume that security at the file system level is
sufficient.

INT_MAX is already larger than a reasonable hostname might be, but
size_t makes some of this easier to reason about as we do arithmetic
with it. This would maybe not be worth it if we had to bump the

MAC policies, like mac_biba(4), may forbid changing the login class once
a label has been applied. For setting up the initial login context,
this isn't really expected and in-fact may break some class-based
configuration.
Defer setting the MAC label until after the login class is set, and
remove the requirement that we have a pwd entry since the label is
pulled from the login class -- we only use pwd for syslog in this path.

Add a new per-group SUBPACKAGE option to bsd.man.mk. When MANSPLITPKG
is enabled, this is forced to "-man", otherwise it defaults to empty
but can be overridden by the caller.
Use this in bsd.lib.mk to install library manpages in the -dev package
instead of the base package. This is nearly always preferable, since
library manpages are usually in section 2 or 3 and are only relevant
to people with development packages installed.
For manpages which should be installed in the base package even for
libraries, add a new MANNODEV group in bsd.lib.mk. Update existing
Makefiles to use this where appropriate.

It is unclear whether this function was originally intended to support
negative numbers. The original implementation used signed integers,
but actually giving it a negative number as input would have invoked
undefined behavior, and the comments (since removed) only mentioned
positive numbers. Fifteen years ago, I “fixed” this by changing the
type from signed to unsigned. However, it would still have accepted
an input with a leading minus sign (though it would have returned its
absolute value). Fifteen years on, change the type back to signed and
fix the logic so it correctly handles both positive and negative
numbers without invoking undefined behavior. This makes it a better
match for humanize_number(3), which it is supposed to complement.

code into a new cpuset.c function - 'domainset_parselist'.

flexible.
- In other cases we may want additional checking, so pull all of the
declaration bits out of __ssp_redirect_raw() so that some functions
can implement the body themselves.

This reverts commit 1a968da448.
I was mistakenly looking at the version strings in the CVS attic
but the function was moved to libc/stdio where it matches the
current string.
It seems that there are still some applications that use ftime(3)
(for example, science/siconos and sysutils/lcdproc). The issue
is that we don't build libcompat as a shared library anymore.
The easiest solution is to move it to libutil, until we
deprecate it for good.
