unix: convert openbsd/mips64 to direct libc calls The current code has continued to work on OpenBSD, since it has been using syscall(2) via libc. However, the system call numbers are still hardcoded in golang.org/x/sys/unix. Various system call changes have been made in OpenBSD, resulting in changes to the system call numbers and arguments, which now fail when this package is used. Switch to calling various system calls directly via libc, rather than calling via libc using syscall(2). Unfortunately, this will no longer work on upstream Go since the changes needed to convert it to libc are still blocked pending review. This means that we're in a less than ideal situation where upstream Go openbsd/mips64 does not work on any supported OpenBSD release (in fact has not since OpenBSD 6.8, which was EOL over a year ago), however golang.org/x/sys/unix is now unusable with the Go package that ships with supported releases via OpenBSD ports. It would seem that being able to actually use Go software on a supported OpenBSD release trumps maintaining compatibility with the unusable upstream Go source.
