r315412:
    Don't clear p_ptevents on normal SIGKILL delivery

    The ptrace() user has the option of discarding the signal. In such a
    case, p_ptevents should not be modified. If the ptrace() user decides to
    send a SIGKILL, ptevents will be cleared in ptracestop(). procfs events
    do not have the capability to discard the signal, so continue to clear
    the mask in that case.

r314852:
    don't stop in issignal() if P_SINGLE_EXIT is set

    Suppose a traced process is stopped in ptracestop() due to receipt of a
    SIGSTOP signal, and is awaiting orders from the tracing process on how
    to handle the signal. Before sending any such orders, the tracing
    process exits. This should kill the traced process. But suppose a second
    thread handles the SIGKILL and proceeds to exit1(), calling
    thread_single(). The first thread will now awaken and will have a chance
    to check once more if it should go to sleep due to the SIGSTOP.  It must
    not sleep after P_SINGLE_EXIT has been set; this would prevent the
    SIGKILL from taking effect, leaving a stopped orphan behind after the
    tracing process dies.

    Also add new tests for this condition.

src/tests: The FreeBSD test suite
=================================

This file describes the build infrastructure of the FreeBSD test suite.
If you are only interested in using the test suite itself, please refer
to tests(7) instead.

The build of the test suite is organized in the following manner:

* The build of all test artifacts is protected by the MK_TESTS knob.
  The user can disable these with the WITHOUT_TESTS setting in
  src.conf(5).

* The goal for /usr/tests/ (the installed test programs) is to follow
  the same hierarchy as /usr/src/ wherever possible, which in turn drives
  several of the design decisions described below.  This simplifies the
  discoverability of tests.  We want a mapping such as:

    /usr/src/bin/cp/      -> /usr/tests/bin/cp/
    /usr/src/lib/libc/    -> /usr/tests/lib/libc/
    /usr/src/usr.bin/cut/ -> /usr/tests/usr.bin/cut/
    ... and many more ...

* Test programs for specific utilities and libraries are located next
  to the source code of such programs.  For example, the tests for the
  src/lib/libcrypt/ library live in src/lib/libcrypt/tests/.  The tests/
  subdirectory is optional and should, in general, be avoided.

* The src/tests/ hierarchy (this directory) provides generic test
  infrastructure and glue code to join all test programs together into
  a single test suite definition.

* The src/tests/ hierarchy also includes cross-functional test programs:
  i.e. test programs that cover more than a single utility or library
  and thus don't fit anywhere else in the tree.  Consider this to follow
  the same rationale as src/share/man/: this directory contains generic
  manual pages while the manual pages that are specific to individual
  tools or libraries live next to the source code.

In order to keep the src/tests/ hierarchy decoupled from the actual test
programs being installed --which is a worthy goal because it simplifies
the addition of new test programs and simplifies the maintenance of the
tree-- the top-level Kyuafile does not know which subdirectories may
exist upfront.  Instead, such Kyuafile automatically detects, at
run-time, which */Kyuafile files exist and uses those directly.

Similarly, every directory in src/ that wants to install a Kyuafile to
just recurse into other subdirectories reuses this Kyuafile with
auto-discovery features.  As an example, take a look at src/lib/tests/
whose sole purpose is to install a Kyuafile into /usr/tests/lib/.
The goal in this specific case is for /usr/tests/lib/ to be generated
entirely from src/lib/.
