For open/openat, if the flags parameter does not contain O_CREAT, the
3rd (variadic) mode_t parameter is irrelevant. Many developers in the past
have passed mode_t (0, 044, 0644, or such), which might lead future people
to copy this broken idiom, and perhaps even believe this parameter has some
meaning or implication or application. Delete them all.
This comes out of a conversation where tb@ noticed that a strange (but
intentional) pledge behaviour is to always knock-out high-bits from
mode_t on a number of system calls as a safety factor, and his bewilderment
that this appeared to be happening against valid modes (at least visually),
but no sorry, they are all irrelevant junk. They could all be 0xdeafbeef.

When system calls indicate an error they return -1, not some arbitrary
value < 0. errno is only updated in this case. Change all (most?)
callers of syscalls to follow this better, and let's see if

Replace <sys/param.h> with <limits.h> and other less dirty headers where
possible. Annotate <sys/param.h> lines with their current reasons. Switch
to PATH_MAX, NGROUPS_MAX, HOST_NAME_MAX+1, LOGIN_N

Replace <sys/param.h> with <limits.h> and other less dirty headers where
possible. Annotate <sys/param.h> lines with their current reasons. Switch
to PATH_MAX, NGROUPS_MAX, HOST_NAME_MAX+1, LOGIN_NAME_MAX, etc. Change
MIN() and MAX() to local definitions of MINIMUM() and MAXIMUM() where
sensible to avoid pulling in the pollution. These are the files confirmed
through binary verification.

add a variety of missing prototypes

update pedro's email address, at his request;

sync usage();

Make the mounting process pass a hint to the kernel of where to find the VAT

Sync with recent realpath(3) changes: on failure, don't use the second
argument "resolved", since it is undefined.

ok and help millert, otto
