macos: delegate sock_* calls to bkg daemons
As part of Apple's ongoing effort to modernize macOS, improve security and reliability, the deprecation of kernel extensions was officially announced at WWDC19. According to this announcement, Kernel programming interfaces will be deprecated as alternatives become available, and future OS releases will no longer load kernel extensions that use deprecated KPIs by default. Unfortunately, the following KPIs, extensively used by rx, are included in the list of deprecated KPIs as of macOS 10.15: - sock_receivembuf - sock_close - sock_send - sock_socket - sock_setsockopt - sock_bind To workaround this problem, delegate calls to the functions mentioned above to bkg daemons forked by afsd. Notice that the ifadd_* and ifnet_* functions are also deprecated. Fortunately, these calls can be avoided enabling AFS_USERSPACE_IP_ADDR. Thanks to Andrew Deason for his assistance (ideas, suggestions, documentation, etc).

AFS is a distributed file system that enables users to share and access all of the files stored in a network of computers as easily as they access the files stored on their local machines. The file system is called distributed for this exact reason: files can reside on many different machines, but are available to users on every machine. OpenAFS 1.0 was originally released by IBM under the terms of the IBM Public License 1.0 (IPL10). For details on IPL10 see the LICENSE file in this directory. The current OpenAFS distribution is licensed under a combination of the IPL10 and many other licenses as granted by the relevant copyright holders. The LICENSE file in this directory contains more details, thought it is not a comprehensive statement. See INSTALL for information about building and installing OpenAFS on various platforms. See CODING for developer information and guidelines. See NEWS for recent changes to OpenAFS.
