Fix warnings about:
. Unused variables
. format mismatch in printf/scanf format string and arguments
. Missing parenthesis around assignment as truth values
. Clang warnings anout unknown GCC pragma
* 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In fetch scripts, tar had been replaced by bsdtar as the prebvious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"
The bsd signal names are out-of-order compared to the minix ones.
I found out (the hard way) that the (MINIX-descending) ordered list of
signals in <sys/signal.h> does not match the (BSD-descending) ordered
list of signals in usr/src/lib/libc/nbsd_libc/gen/sig{name,list}.c
Beyond being unfortunate, it prevents the trap command of ash to handle
correctly a named signal; a funny test case is
#!/bin/sh
trap 'echo trapping signal BUS' BUS
trap 'echo trapping signal 10 (USR1)' 10
trap # show me what is currently trapped
As a quick workaround, I disabled the use of the libc-provided
sys_sig{name,list} arrays for ash, and reverted to the hand-made array
which is used by the less capable MINIX libc. It allowed me to use
pkgsrc.
3 sets of libraries are built now:
. ack: all libraries that ack can compile (/usr/lib/i386/)
. clang+elf: all libraries with minix headers (/usr/lib/)
. clang+elf: all libraries with netbsd headers (/usr/netbsd/)
Once everything can be compiled with netbsd libraries and headers, the
/usr/netbsd hierarchy will be obsolete and its libraries compiled with
netbsd headers will be installed in /usr/lib, and its headers
in /usr/include. (i.e. minix libc and current minix headers set
will be gone.)
To use the NetBSD libc system (libraries + headers) before
it is the default libc, see:
http://wiki.minix3.org/en/DevelopersGuide/UsingNetBSDCode
This wiki page also documents the maintenance of the patch
files of minix-specific changes to imported NetBSD code.
Changes in this commit:
. libsys: Add NBSD compilation and create a safe NBSD-based libc.
. Port rest of libraries (except libddekit) to new header system.
. Enable compilation of libddekit with new headers.
. Enable kernel compilation with new headers.
. Enable drivers compilation with new headers.
. Port legacy commands to new headers and libc.
. Port servers to new headers.
. Add <sys/sigcontext.h> in compat library.
. Remove dependency file in tree.
. Enable compilation of common/lib/libc/atomic in libsys
. Do not generate RCSID strings in libc.
. Temporarily disable zoneinfo as they are incompatible with NetBSD format
. obj-nbsd for .gitignore
. Procfs: use only integer arithmetic. (Antoine Leca)
. Increase ramdisk size to create NBSD-based images.
. Remove INCSYMLINKS handling hack.
. Add nbsd_include/sys/exec_elf.h
. Enable ELF compilation with NBSD libc.
. Add 'make nbsdsrc' in tools to download reference NetBSD sources.
. Automate minix-port.patch creation.
. Avoid using fstavfs() as it is *extremely* slow and unneeded.
. Set err() as PRIVATE to avoid name clash with libc.
. [NBSD] servers/vm: remove compilation warnings.
. u32 is not a long in NBSD headers.
. UPDATING info on netbsd hierarchy
. commands fixes for netbsd libc
-Convert the include directory over to using bsdmake
syntax
-Update/add mkfiles
-Modify install(1) so that it can create symlinks
-Update makefiles to use new install(1) options
-Rename /usr/include/ibm to /usr/include/i386
-Create /usr/include/machine symlink to arch header files
-Move vm_i386.h to its new home in the /usr/include/i386
-Update source files to #include the header files at their
new homes.
-Add new gnu-includes target for building GCC headers
. include c1* nodes in std in MAKEDEV
. this requires a slightly larger shell
. this requires a larger blocksize on the boot ramdisk (to fit
/dev/ in direct blocks for mkfs with a proto file)
. also more inodes and kB's on the boot ramdisk

Subject: Re: [Minix-devel-l] Symbolic link
Using an alias for cd to set the prompt to display the current path
breaks the cd command. I use in .ashrc:
PS3=$PS1
hostname=$(expr `cat /etc/hostname.file` : '\([^.]*\)')
cd() { ## shows current directory as prompt
command cd "$@"
PS1="$PS3$USER@$hostname:`pwd` > "
}
If you change the macro in shell.h to:
#define SYMLINKS 0
the correct behaviour is restored. Could you verify?
I think that the ash package needs the patch.
