- Fix for possible unset uid/gid in toproto
- Fix for default mtree style
- Update libelf
- Importing libexecinfo
- Resynchronize GCC, mpc, gmp, mpfr
- build.sh: Replace params with show-params.
This has been done as the make target has been renamed in the same
way, while a new target named params has been added. This new
target generates a file containing all the parameters, instead of
printing it on the console.
- Update test48 with new etc/services (Fix by Ben Gras <ben@minix3.org)
get getservbyport() out of the inner loop
Change-Id: Ie6ad5226fa2621ff9f0dee8782ea48f9443d2091
- move system calls for use by services from libminlib into libsys;
- move srv_fork(2) and srv_kill(2) from RS and into libsys;
- replace getprocnr(2) with sef_self(3);
- rename previous getnprocnr(2) to getprocnr(2);
- clean up getepinfo(2);
- change all libsys calls that used _syscall to use _taskcall, so as
to avoid going through errno to pass errors; this is already how
most calls work anyway, and many of the calls previously using
_syscall were already assumed to return the actual error;
- initialize request messages to zero, for future compatibility
(note that this does not include PCI calls, which are in need of a
much bigger overhaul, nor kernel calls);
- clean up more of dead DS code as a side effect.

Previously, all incoming messages would be blocked before a DL_CONF
message arrives from the TCP/IP stack. This however makes it impossible
for a driver to process interrupts before the DL_CONF initialization.
This patch blocks only datalink messages before the initial DL_CONF,
and lets through all other messages to the driver.

model to an instance-based model. Each ethernet driver instance is now
responsible for exactly one network interface card. The port field in
/etc/inet.conf now acts as an instance field instead.
This patch also updates the data link protocol. This update:
- eliminates the concept of ports entirely;
- eliminates DL_GETNAME entirely;
- standardizes on using m_source for IPC and DL_ENDPT for safecopies;
- removes error codes from TASK/STAT replies, as they were unused;
- removes a number of other old or unused fields;
- names and renames a few other fields.
All ethernet drivers have been changed to:
- conform to the new protocol, and exactly that;
- take on an instance number based on a given "instance" argument;
- skip that number of PCI devices in probe iterations;
- use config tables and environment variables based on that number;
- no longer be limited to a predefined maximum of cards in any way;
- get rid of any leftover non-safecopy support and other ancient junk;
- have a correct banner protocol figure, or none at all.
Other changes:
* Inet.conf is now taken to be line-based, and supports #-comments.
No existing installations are expected to be affected by this.
* A new, select-based asynchio library replaces the old one.
Kindly contributed by Kees J. Bot.
* Inet now supports use of select() on IP devices.
Combined, the last two changes together speed up dhcpd
considerably in the presence of multiple interfaces.
* A small bug has been fixed in nonamed.
SYSLIB CHANGES:
- DS calls to publish / retrieve labels consider endpoints instead of u32_t.
VFS CHANGES:
- mapdriver() only adds an entry in the dmap table in VFS.
- dev_up() is only executed upon reception of a driver up event.
INET CHANGES:
- INET no longer searches for existing drivers instances at startup.
- A newtwork driver is (re)initialized upon reception of a driver up event.
- Networking startup is now race-free by design. No need to waste 5 seconds
at startup any more.
DRIVER CHANGES:
- Every driver publishes driver up events when starting for the first time or
in case of restart when recovery actions must be taken in the upper layers.
- Driver up events are published by drivers through DS.
- For regular drivers, VFS is normally the only subscriber, but not necessarily.
For instance, when the filter driver is in use, it must subscribe to driver
up events to initiate recovery.
- For network drivers, inet is the only subscriber for now.
- Every VFS driver is statically linked with libdriver, every network driver
is statically linked with libnetdriver.
DRIVER LIBRARIES CHANGES:
- Libdriver is extended to provide generic receive() and ds_publish() interfaces
for VFS drivers.
- driver_receive() is a wrapper for sef_receive() also used in driver_task()
to discard spurious messages that were meant to be delivered to a previous
version of the driver.
- driver_receive_mq() is the same as driver_receive() but integrates support
for queued messages.
- driver_announce() publishes a driver up event for VFS drivers and marks
the driver as initialized and expecting a DEV_OPEN message.
- Libnetdriver is introduced to provide similar receive() and ds_publish()
interfaces for network drivers (netdriver_announce() and netdriver_receive()).
- Network drivers all support live update with no state transfer now.
KERNEL CHANGES:
- Added kernel call statectl for state management. Used by driver_announce() to
unblock eventual callers sendrecing to the driver.
