Extend the support for exempting processes from being killed when swap is
exhausted.
- Add a new protect(1) command that can be used to set or revoke protection
from arbitrary processes. Similar to ktrace it can apply a change to all
existing descendants of a process as well as future descendants.
- Add a new procctl(2) system call that provides a generic interface for
control operations on processes (as opposed to the debugger-specific
operations provided by ptrace(2)). procctl(2) uses a combination of
idtype_t and an id to identify the set of processes on which to operate
similar to wait6().
- Add a PROC_SPROTECT control operation to manage the protection status
of a set of processes. MADV_PROTECT still works for backwards
compatability.
- Add a p_flag2 to struct proc (and a corresponding ki_flag2 to kinfo_proc)
the first bit of which is used to track if P_PROTECT should be inherited
by new child processes.
