Code analysis and runtime analysis using truss(8) indicate that the only privileged operations performed by ntpd are adjusting system time, and (re-)binding to privileged UDP port 123. These changes add a new mac(4) policy module, mac_ntpd(4), which grants just those privileges to any process running with uid 123. This also adds a new user and group, ntpd:ntpd, (uid:gid 123:123), and makes them the owner of the /var/db/ntp directory, so that it can be used as a location where the non-privileged daemon can write files such as the driftfile, and any optional logfile or stats files. Because there are so many ways to configure ntpd, the question of how to configure it to run without root privs can be a bit complex, so that will be addressed in a separate commit. These changes are just what's required to grant the limited subset of privs to ntpd, and the small change to ntpd to prevent it from exiting with an error if running as non-root.

Note: If you modify these files, please keep hier(7) updated!
These files are used to create empty file hierarchies for building the
system into. Some notes about working with them are placed here to try
and keep them in good working order.
a) The files use 4 space indentation, and other than in the header
comments, should not contain any tabs. An indentation of 4 is
preferable to the standard indentation of 8 because the indentation
of levels in these files can become quite deep causing the line to
overflow 80 characters.
This also matches with the files generated when using the
mtree -c option, which was implemented that way for the same reason.
b) Only directories should be listed here.
c) The listing should be kept in filename sorted order.
d) Sanity checking changes to these files can be done by following
this procedure (the sed -e is ugly, but fixing mtree -c to
not emit the trailing white space would be even uglier):
mkdir /tmp/MTREE
mtree -deU -f BSD.X.dist -p /tmp/MTREE
mtree -cdin -k uname,gname,mode -p /tmp/MTREE | \
sed -e 's/ *$//' >BSD.X.new
diff -u BSD.X.dist BSD.X.new
rm -r /tmp/MTREE
Note that you will get some differences about /set lines,
and uname= gname= on certain directory areas, mainly man page
sections. This is caused by mtree not having a look ahead
mechanism for making better selections for these as it
traverses the hierarchy.
The BSD.X.new file should NOT be committed, as it will be missing
the correct header, and important keywords like ``nochange''.
Simply use the diff for a sanity check to make sure things are in
the correct order and correctly indented.
e) Further sanity checking of the system builds with DESTDIR=/someplace
are more complicated, but can often catch missing entries in these
files. I tend to run this more complete sanity check shortly after
the target date for a new release is announced.
