# 297247 24-Mar-2016 ed

Replace the CloudABI system call table by a machine generated version.

The type definitions and constants that were used by COMPAT_CLOUDABI64
are a literal copy of some headers stored inside of CloudABI's C
library, cloudlibc. What is annoying is that we can't make use of
cloudlibc's system call list, as the format is completely different and
doesn't provide enough information. It had to be synced in manually.

We recently decided to solve this (and some other problems) by moving
the ABI definitions into a separate file:

https://github.com/NuxiNL/cloudabi/blob/master/cloudabi.txt

This file is processed by a pile of Python scripts to generate the
header files like before, documentation (markdown), but in our case more
importantly: a FreeBSD system call table.

This change discards the old files in sys/contrib/cloudabi and replaces
them by the latest copies, which requires some minor changes here and
there. Because cloudabi.txt also enforces consistent names of the system
call arguments, we have to patch up a small number of system call
implementations to use the new argument names.

The new header files can also be included directly in FreeBSD kernel
space without needing any includes/defines, so we can now remove
cloudabi_syscalldefs.h and cloudabi64_syscalldefs.h. Patch up the
sources to include the definitions directly from sys/contrib/cloudabi
instead.


# 295931 23-Feb-2016 jhb

Add handling for non-native error values to libsysdecode.

Add two new functions, sysdecode_abi_to_freebsd_errno() and
sysdecode_freebsd_to_abi_errno(), which convert errno values between
the native FreeBSD ABI and other supported ABIs. Note that the
mappings are not necessarily perfect meaning in some cases multiple
errors in one ABI might map to a single error in another ABI. In that
case, the reverse mapping will return one of the errors that maps, but
which error is non-deterministic.

Change truss to always report the raw error value to the user but
use libsysdecode to map it to a native errno value that can be used
with strerror() to generate a description. Previously truss reported
the "converted" error value. Now the user will always see the exact
error value that the application sees.

Change kdump to report the truly raw error value to the user. Previously
kdump would report the absolute value of the raw error value (so for
Linux binaries it didn't output the FreeBSD error value, but the positive
value of the Linux error). Now it reports the real (i.e. negative) error
value for Linux binaries. Also, use libsysdecode to convert the native
FreeBSD error reported in the ktrace record to the raw error used by the
ABI. This means that the Linux ABI can now be handled directly in
ktrsysret() and removes the need for linux_ktrsysret().
