ce916bcb91 Fixed a minor select bug:
- When one does a select on a file descriptor that is meaningless for that particular file type, select shall indicate that the file descriptor is ready for that particular operation and that the file descriptor has no exceptional condition pending.

12451e6b06 Miscellaneous PM fixes:
o Don't call vm_willexit() more than once upon normal process exit
o Correct two cases of indenting of the no-discussion-possible kind
o Perform slightly stricter ptrace(2) checks:
  - process calling ptrace must be target process's parent
  - process must call wait/waitpid before using ptrace on stopped child
  - no ptrace on zombies
o Allow user processes to use ptrace(T_STOP) to stop an active child

b8b8f537bd IPC privileges fixes
Kernel:
o Remove s_ipc_sendrec, instead using s_ipc_to for all send primitives
o Centralize s_ipc_to bit manipulation,
  - disallowing assignment of bits pointing to unused priv structs;
  - preventing send-to-self by not setting bit for own priv struct;
  - preserving send mask matrix symmetry in all cases
o Add IPC send mask checks to SENDA, which were missing entirely somehow
o Slightly improve IPC stats accounting for SENDA
o Remove SYSTEM from user processes' send mask
o Half-fix the dependency between boot image order and process numbers,
  - correcting the table order of the boot processes;
  - documenting the order requirement needed for proper send masks;
  - warning at boot time if the order is violated

RS:
o Add support in /etc/drivers.conf for servers that talk to user processes,
  - disallowing IPC to user processes if no "ipc" field is present
  - adding a special "USER" label to explicitly allow IPC to user processes
o Always apply IPC masks when specified; remove -i flag from service(8)
o Use kernel send mask symmetry to delay adding IPC permissions for labels
  that do not exist yet, adding them to that label's process upon creation
o Add VM to ipc permissions list for rtl8139 and fxp in drivers.conf

Left to future fixes:
o Removal of the table order vs process numbers dependency altogether,
  possibly using per-process send list structures as used for SYSTEM calls
o Proper assignment of send masks to boot processes;
  some of the assigned (~0) masks are much wider than necessary
o Proper assignment of IPC send masks for many more servers in drivers.conf
o Removal of the debugging warning about the now legitimate case where RS's
  add_forward_ipc cannot find the IPC destination's label yet

a415b68523 Release.sh now uses packages.install and package_sources.install to
determine which packages and package sources to include on the
installation media, as opposed to including everything in the
PACKAGEDIR AND PACKAGESOURCEDIR directories.

dac531addf Support for VMWare Workstation 6.x
VMWare Workstation 6.x would previously die when running MINIX 3 with an
IOSPACE assertion and several error messages about multiply registered
I/O ports. The assertion is triggered when we probe for BAR sizes in
record_bar(). The solution: The PCI driver now disables I/O and mem
access before probing for BAR sizes.

Bumped up NR_PCIDEV and NR_PCIBUS, since Workstation 6.x virtualizes
more PCI buses and devices.

f76d75a5ec Various VFS and MFS fixes to improve correctness, consistency and
POSIX compliance.

VFS changes:
* truncate() on a file system mounted read-only no longer panics MFS.
* ftruncate() and fcntl(F_FREESP) now check for write permission on
  the file descriptor instead of the file, write().
* utime(), chown() and fchown() now check for file system read-only
  status.

MFS changes:
* link() and rename() no longer return the internal EENTERMOUNT and
  ELEAVEMOUNT errors to the application as part of a check on the
  source path.
* rename() now treats EENTERMOUNT from the destination path check as
  an error, preventing file system corruption from renaming a normal
  directory to an existing mountpoint directory.
* mountpoints (mounted-on dirs) are hidden better during lookups:
  - if a lookup starts from a mountpoint, the first component has to
    be ".." (anything else being a VFS-FS protocol violation).
  - in that case, the permissions of the mountpoint are not checked.
  - in all other cases, visiting a mountpoint always results in
    EENTERMOUNT.
* a lookup on ".." from a mount root or chroot(2) root no longer
  succeeds if the caller does not have search permission on that
  directory.
* POSIX: getdents() now updates directory access times.
* POSIX: readlink() now returns partial results instead of ERANGE.

Miscellaneous changes:
* semaphore file handling bug (leading to hangs) fixed in test 32.

The VFS changes should now put the burden of checking for read-only
status of file systems entirely on VFS, and limit the access
permission checks that file systems have to perform, to checking
search permission on directories during lookups. From this point on,
any deviation from that spceification should be considered a bug.
Note that for legacy reasons, the root partition is assumed to be
mounted read-write.

bdab3c4cfb Library call for cpu features; make kernel and vm use this to query cpu
features (specifically: 4MB pages and TLB global bit).  Only enable
these features in CR4 if available. 4MB pages to be used in the near
future.
