A new ioctl TIOCGDISPLAYS allow detecting which displays the terminal
has associated. The ability to set a keyboard layout can be detected
with tcgetblob kblayout.
Improve the user-space multi-monitor support while here.
The kernel now sets TERM rather than init(8).
This is a compatible ABI change riding on the previous commit's bump.
This change refactors the process group implementation and adds support
for sessions. The setsid(2) and getsid(2) system calls were added.
psctl(2) now has PSCTL_TTYNAME, which lets you get the name of a process's
terminal, and ps(1) now uses it.
The initial terminal is now called /dev/tty1.
/dev/tty is now a factory for the current terminal.
A global lock now protects the process hierarchy which makes it safe to
access other processes. This refactor removes potential vulnerabilities
and increases system robustness.
A number of terminal ioctls have been added.
This is a compatible ABI change.
