* Remade patch so it works with minix patch tool.
* New MINIX tar support -ox, so revert back to it
In fetch scripts, tar had been replaced by bsdtar as the prebvious
tar did not support the -o flag under minix, which is required to
prevent usage of tar file stored user and group information.
This introduces portability problems. As our new tar tool now
support that flag revert back to improve portability.
upgrade to NetBSD CVS release from 2012/10/17 12:00:00 UTC
Makefiles updates to imporve portability
Made sure to be consistent in the usage of braces/parenthesis at
least on a per file basis. For variables, it is recommended to
continue to use braces.
The tested targets are the followgin ones:
* tools
* distribution
* sets
* release
The remaining NetBSD targets have not been disabled nor tested
*at all*. Try them at your own risk, they may reboot the earth.
For all compliant Makefiles, objects and generated files are put in
MAKEOBJDIR, which means you can now keep objects between two branch
switching. Same for DESTDIR, please refer to build.sh options.
Regarding new or modifications of Makefiles a few things:
* Read share/mk/bsd.README
* If you add a subdirectory, add a Makefile in it, and have it called
by the parent through the SUBDIR variable.
* Do not add arbitrary inclusion which crosses to another branch of
the hierarchy; If you can't do without it, put a comment on why.
If possible, do not use inclusion at all.
* Use as much as possible the infrastructure, it is here to make
life easier, do not fight it.
Sets and package are now used to track files.
We have one set called "minix", composed of one package called "minix-sys"
Bumping libc files for unsupported architectures, to simplify merging.
A bunch of small fixes:
* in libutil update
* the macro in endian.h
* some undefined types due to clear separation from host.
* Fix a warning for cdbr.c
Some modification which were required for the new build system:
* inclusion path for const.h in sconst, still hacky
* Removed default malloc.c which conflicts on some occasions.
- inherit a predefined set of system environment variables
(the current set of inherited variables is: ahci; acpi; no_apic);
- auto-adjust the default menu option when lines are auto-removed;
- add variable substitution support for /etc/boot.cfg.local;
- make default menu options in boot.cfg.local relative to itself,
allowing one to set the default to a menu option from this file.
- add "edit" menu option, to edit menu commands before executing them;
- add "menu" boot command, to return to the menu from the prompt;
- provide more line editing features when getting input;
- fix a few potential buffer overflows as a side effect.
complete munmap implementation; single-page references made
a general munmap() implementation possible to write cleanly.
. memory: let the MIOCRAMSIZE ioctl set the imgrd device
size (but only to 0)
. let the ramdisk command set sizes to 0
. use this command to set /dev/imgrd to 0 after mounting /usr
in /etc/rc, so the boot time ramdisk is freed (about 4MB
currently)
The rc script manually parses /etc/fstab to mount all file systems.
To do that it needs /bin/sed which does not exist anymore. mount(8)
now supports the -a flag which causes it to mount all file systems
listed in /etc/fstab except for '/'. File systems marked with 'noauto'
are skipped.
Adding hot plugging infrastructure in rc file. This includes
starting the devman service, mounting it's file system and
starting the corresponding devmand daemon.
This patch also provide error free shutdown of the USB sub-system.
The USB sub system needs to be shutdown in a certain order but also
consists of components living in /usr/pkg/. By checking the
existence of usbd we can stop it in the correct order.
. new mode for sys_memset: include process so memset can be
done in physical or virtual address space.
. add a mode to mmap() that lets a process allocate uninitialized
memory.
. this allows an exec()er (RS, VFS, etc.) to request uninitialized
memory from VM and selectively clear the ranges that don't come
from a file, leaving no uninitialized memory left for the process
to see.
. use callbacks for clearing the process, clearing memory in the
process, and copying into the process; so that the libexec code
can be used from rs, vfs, and in the future, kernel (to load vm)
and vm (to load boot-time processes)
these two functions will be used to support all exec() functionality
going into a single library shared by RS and VFS and exec() knowledge
leaving VM.
. third-party mmap: allow certain processes (VFS, RS) to
do mmap() on behalf of another process
. PROCCTL: used to free and clear a process' address space
. readbios call is now a physical copy with range check in
the kernel call instead of BIOS_SEG+umap_bios
. requires all access to physical memory in bios range to go
through sys_readbios
. drivers/dpeth: wasn't using it
. adjusted printer
building defaults to off until clang is updated.
current clang does not handle -shared, necessary to change the ld
invocation to build shared libraries properly. a new clang should be
installed and MKPIC defaults to no unless the newer clang is detected.
changes:
. mainly small imports of a Makefile or two and small fixes
(turning things back on that were turned off in Makefiles)
. e.g.: dynamic librefuse now depends on dynamic
libpuffs, so libpuffs has to be built dynamically too
and a make dependency barrier is needed in lib/Makefile
. all library objects now have a PIC (for .so) and non-PIC
version, so everything is built twice.
. generate PIC versions of the compat (un-RENAMEd) jump files,
include function type annotation in generated assembly
. build progs with -static by default for now
. also build ld.elf_so
. also import NetBSD ldd
remove some old minix-userland-specific stuff
. /etc/ttytab as a file, and minix-compat function (fftyslot()),
replaced by /etc/ttys and new libc functions
. also remove minix-specific nlist(), cuserid(), fttyslot(), v8 regex
functions and <compat/regex.h>
. and remaining minix-only utilities that use them
. also unused <compat/pwd.h> and <compat/syslog.h> and
redundant <sys/sigcontext.h>
- remove PCI tables where system.conf suffices
- remove drivers' ability to mess up NIC order
- fix dp8390 PCI enumeration
- convert ti1225 to instance model
- add system.conf entry for ti1225
- libnetsock - internal implementation of a socket on the lwip
server side. it encapsulates the asynchronous protocol
- lwip server - uses libnetsock to work with the asynchronous
protocol
There is important information about booting non-ack images in
docs/UPDATING. ack/aout-format images can't be built any more, and
booting clang/ELF-format ones is a little different. Updating to the
new boot monitor is recommended.
Changes in this commit:
. drop boot monitor -> allowing dropping ack support
. facility to copy ELF boot files to /boot so that old boot monitor
can still boot fairly easily, see UPDATING
. no more ack-format libraries -> single-case libraries
. some cleanup of OBJECT_FMT, COMPILER_TYPE, etc cases
. drop several ack toolchain commands, but not all support
commands (e.g. aal is gone but acksize is not yet).
. a few libc files moved to netbsd libc dir
. new /bin/date as minix date used code in libc/
. test compile fix
. harmonize includes
. /usr/lib is no longer special: without ack, /usr/lib plays no
kind of special bootstrapping role any more and bootstrapping
is done exclusively through packages, so releases depend even
less on the state of the machine making them now.
. rename nbsd_lib* to lib*
. reduce mtree
Kernels and system services are stored in a single directory in the
/boot/minix/ and rotated like /boot/images. /boot/minix_latest slink
is created automatically.
System serives are prefixed by "modNN_" to allow to easily load them
using "mod*" pattern.
Currently, all servers and drivers run as root as they are forks of
RS. srv_fork now tells PM with which credentials to run the resulting
fork. Subsequently, PM lets VFS now as well.
This patch also fixes the following bugs:
- RS doesn't initialize the setugid variable during exec, causing the
servers and drivers to run setuid rendering the srv_fork extension
useless.
- PM erroneously tells VFS to run processes setuid. This doesn't
actually lead to setuid processes as VFS sets {r,e}uid and {r,e}gid
properly before checking PM's approval.
. also implement now-possible fsck -p option
. allows unconditional fsck -p invocation at startup,
only checking each filesystem if not marked clean
. mounting unclean is allowed but is forced readonly
. updating the superblock while mounted is now not
allowed by mfs - must be done (e.g. by fsck.mfs)
on an unmounted fs
. clean flag is unset by mfs on mounting, and set by
mfs on clean unmounting (if clean flag was set at
mount time)

This driver can be loaded as an overlay on top of a real block
device, and can then be used to generate block-level failures for
certain transfer requests. Specifically, a rule-based system allows
the user to introduce (overt and silent) data corruption and errors.
It exposes itself through /dev/fbd, and a file system can be mounted
on top of it. The new fbdctl(8) tool can be used to control the
driver; see ``man fbdctl'' for details. It also comes with a test
set, located in test/fbdtest.
. always install them (overwrite)
. source minix one from /etc/defaults/rc.conf
so that it'll get read on existing installs
without overwriting rc.conf (doesn't happen by default
as it's user-editable), needed for new netconf system
. reported by Tenkawa
. rc script and service know to look in /usr/pkg/.. for
extra binaries and conf files
. service split into parsing config and doing RS request
so that a new utility (printconfig) can just print the
config in machine-parseable format for netconf integration
. converted all base system eth drivers/netconf
. detect both formats in /etc/rc
. generate new format in setup
. obsoletes /etc/fstab.local: everything can go in /etc/fstab
. put shutdown/reboot/halt and a copy of /usr/adm/wtmp
(/etc/wtmp) on root FS so that we can do shutdown checks before
mounting /usr
. new fstab format makes getfsent() and friends work
. add bsd-style MLINKS to minix man set, restoring aliases
(e.g. man add64 -> int64)
. update daily cron script to run makewhatis and restore makewhatis
in man Makefile (makedb), restores functionality of man -k
. netbsd imports of man, mdocml, makewhatis, libutil, apropos
. update man.conf with manpage locations, restoring man [-s] <section>
. throws out some obsolete manpages
. ipc wants to know about processes that get
signals, so that it can break blocking ipc operations
. doing it for every single signal is wasteful
and causes the annoying 'no slot for signals' message
. this fix tells vm on a per-process basis it (ipc)
wants to be notified, i.e. only when it does any ipc calls
. move ipc config to separate config file while we're at it
. needed for netbsd libc dns resolution
. points to minix nonamed
. /etc/resolv.conf should have the real info
(written by netconf / dhcp client)
. nonamed should be phased out but will probably
be around for the 'old' libc
. speeds up mkdep (i.e. world builds) significantly
. have to keep minix /bin/sed for a while because previous
usr/etc/rc depends on it
. force mkdep to use /usr/bin/sed for speedup
1. ack, a.out, minix headers (moved to /usr/include.ack),
minix libc
2. gcc/clang, elf, netbsd headers (moved to /usr/include),
netbsd libc (moved to /usr/lib)
So this obsoletes the /usr/netbsd hierarchy.
No special invocation for netbsd libc necessary - it's always used
for gcc/clang.
sys_umap now supports only:
- looking up the physical address of a virtual address in the address space
of the caller;
- looking up the physical address of a grant for which the caller is the
grantee.
This is enough for nearly all umap users. The new sys_umap_remote supports
lookups in arbitrary address spaces and grants for arbitrary grantees.
Several pkgsrc packages under the games category won't install
without a games group. This change adds the group with gid 13,
the default games gid on NetBSD.
. use bmake for pkgsrc instead, reads mk.conf from /usr/pkg/etc/mk.conf
. tracking bmake from pkgsrc eases tracking pkgsrc
. further disentangles pkgsrc from base system, reducing maintenance
burden of pkgsrc
pkgsrc binary packages.
rationale:
. pkg_install (which is the pkg_* tools) is entangled with pkgsrc,
not with minix, so tracking it from pkgsrc (easier than with
base system) makes more sense
. simplifies upstreaming minix specific changes for pkg_* tools
. reduce pkgsrc-in-basesystem maintenance burden
Take into account the ALL and ALL_SYS cases when constructing proper
symmetrical IPC send masks. Fix system.conf accordingly, to keep
userland processes from sending to several non-interface servers and
drivers. Also fix IS's F4 formatting.
This makes it easier to
- have non-base system drivers (get clobbered by global system.conf)
- have drivers as packages (can't touch global system.conf)
- make configs part of the drivers/servers instead of in global file
(makes system parts more self-contained)
