Add a central table of modes and loop over it rather than spelling out
10 essentialy identical strcmp if statemnts. Use the stable to generate
usage as well reducing the number of ifdefs.
Disallow multiple -m options. Previouly multiple were allowed, but only
the last one was used and there was no indication this happened.

Require a command to exec or a pid to target and update usage and the
manpage to make this more clear.
It makes no sense to invoke a procctl(2) command on the current process
only to exit. Users are sometimes confused about how proccontrol works
and think it effects their shell environment when invoked without a
target. Disallowing this nonsensical behavior and clarifiying usage
will hopefully reduce confusion.

Repeating the default WARNS here makes it slightly more difficult to
experiment with default WARNS changes, e.g. if we did something absolutely
bananas and introduced a WARNS=7 and wanted to try lifting the default to
that.
Drop most of them; there is one in the blake2 kernel module, but I suspect
it should be dropped -- the default WARNS in the rest of the build doesn't
currently apply to kernel modules, and I haven't put too much thought into
whether it makes sense to make it so.
- Fix markup.
- Mention that process can only allow tracing for itself. This is already
stated in procctl(2), but requiring knowledge of the syscall description
is too much for the tool user.
- Clearly state that query mode only works for existing process.

With this change, randomization can be enabled for all non-fixed
mappings. It means that the base address for the mapping is selected
with a guaranteed amount of entropy (bits). If the mapping was
requested to be superpage aligned, the randomization honours the
superpage attributes.
Although the value of ASLR is diminshing over time as exploit authors
work out simple ASLR bypass techniques, it elimintates the trivial
exploitation of certain vulnerabilities, at least in theory. This
implementation is relatively small and happens at the correct
architectural level. Also, it is not expected to introduce
regressions in existing cases when turned off (default for now), or
cause any significant maintaince burden.
The randomization is done on a best-effort basis - that is, the
allocator falls back to a first fit strategy if fragmentation prevents
entropy injection. It is trivial to implement a strong mode where
failure to guarantee the requested amount of entropy results in
mapping request failure, but I do not consider that to be usable.
I have not fine-tuned the amount of entropy injected right now. It is
only a quantitive change that will not change the implementation. The
current amount is controlled by aslr_pages_rnd.
To not spoil coalescing optimizations, to reduce the page table
fragmentation inherent to ASLR, and to keep the transient superpage
promotion for the malloced memory, locality clustering is implemented
for anonymous private mappings, which are automatically grouped until
fragmentation kicks in. The initial location for the anon group range
is, of course, randomized. This is controlled by vm.cluster_anon,
enabled by default.
The default mode keeps the sbrk area unpopulated by other mappings,
but this can be turned off, which gives much more breathing bits on
architectures with small address space, such as i386. This is tied
with the question of following an application's hint about the mmap(2)
base address. Testing shows that ignoring the hint does not affect the
function of common applications, but I would expect more demanding
code could break. By default sbrk is preserved and mmap hints are
satisfied, which can be changed by using the
kern.elf{32,64}.aslr.honor_sbrk sysctl.
ASLR is enabled on per-ABI basis, and currently it is only allowed on
FreeBSD native i386 and amd64 (including compat 32bit) ABIs. Support
for additional architectures will be added after further testing.
Both per-process and per-image controls are implemented:
- procctl(2) adds PROC_ASLR_CTL/PROC_ASLR_STATUS;
- NT_FREEBSD_FCTL_ASLR_DISABLE feature control note bit makes it possible
to force ASLR off for the given binary. (A tool to edit the feature
control note is in development.)
Global controls are:
- kern.elf{32,64}.aslr.enable - for non-fixed mappings done by mmap(2);
- kern.elf{32,64}.aslr.pie_enable - for PIE image activation mappings;
- kern.elf{32,64}.aslr.honor_sbrk - allow to use sbrk area for mmap(2);
- vm.cluster_anon - enables anon mapping clustering.
