* Allow to change the timer frequency using the hz paramter.
* Unmask the interrupt only after registering the handler.
* Pass the hz parameter in the command line.
A script that creates a HD image ready to be booted by an x86
emulator, ready to work in a crossbuild environment.
It's really just for qemu/kvm as there's no boot code in
the MBR and no bootloader installed so we rely on the in-kvm
multiboot implementation for now. This is very convenient for
passing args too.
To minimize reliance on external tools, we use the Minix
'partition' utility to write the partition table of the HD
image, which therefore has to be compiled natively.
. new script releasetools/x86_hdimage.sh
. natively compile minix 'partition' utility
. make <machine/partition.h> 64-bit safe for it

NetBSD provides an in-kernel EDID parser, validator, and printer
along with other useful functions. This code will be re-used by
the Minix fb driver as it is a complete and well tested
implementation.

To do so, a few dependencies have been imported:
* external/bsd/lutok
* external/mit/lua
* external/public-domain/sqlite
* external/public-domain/xz
The Kyua framework is the new generation of ATF (Automated Test
Framework), it is composed of:
* external/bsd/atf
* external/bsd/kyua-atf-compat
* external/bsd/kyua-cli
* external/bsd/kyua-tester
* tests
Kyua/ATF being written in C++, it depends on libstdc++ which is
provided by GCC. As this is not part of the sources, Kyua is only
compiled when the native GCC utils are installed.
To install Kyua do the following:
* In a cross-build enviromnent, add the following to the build.sh
commandline: -V MKBINUTILS=yes -V MKGCCCMDS=yes
WARNING:
At this point the import is still experimental, and not supported
on native builds (a.k.a make build).

- use the proper make variable to ignore file lists
SLOPPY_FLIST instead of CHECKFLIST, which was a minix hack.
- Add BUILDOPTIONS such that the users can activate optional
features without editing the script.

- Enable installing binutils from the base system.
- Import texinfo which is required for the binutils tools
to be compiled.
- Also adapted the fetch rules to correctly generate the
gitignore files for gcc, and allow the case of multiple
modules in the same directory, as found in gnu/dist.

If present a file called .settings will be sourced when
calling the arm_sdimage.sh script. This allows to configure
the build setting for arm build without the need to specify
the flags each time arm_sdimage.sh is called.
For example to configure arm_sdimage.sh to target the
beaglebone put the following content in your .settings file.
BASE_URL=http://www.minix3.org/arm/beaglebone
FLAG=-DAM335X
CONSOLE=tty00

Keep kernel and modules in the first 256MB of memory in preparation
for the beaglebone. That target only has 256 MB of memory.

We are planning on using the NetBSD config system to perform build
system configuration when targeting different hardware variants.
This functionality however is not integrated yet and we currently
rely on using ifdef's in the code. This commit add the DDM37XX flag.

- Added the possibility to define the number of parallel jobs from the
command line with (example, default is 1):
$ JOBS=8 ./releasetools/arm_sdimage.sh
- Generate filesystem filling the reserved partition area, instead of
being smaller.
- Added a possibility to specify additional parameter to the build.sh
script from the command line with (example):
$ BUILDVARS='-N0 -V MYVAR=yes' ./releasetools/arm_sdimage.sh

There where two reasons for needing root access while making ARM builds. The
first reason was that we needed root permissions to create device nodes and
assign permissions to files. The second reason we needed root was that we used
loop mounted files to copy the build output to the file backed storage.
The first problem is solved by building in unprivileged mode (adding -U) during
compilation. The second problem is solved by using mcopy to put files on the
fat partition and use the mkfs.mfs proto files to create MFS file system.
Future work might be to replace this script by the netbsd makefs tool.

We used to load the memory driver above the other modules to allow
the memory driver (ramdisk) to grow. We no longer want or need this
this as we have a working mmc driver.
* Also cleanup a bit the makefile.
* Also removing small inconsistency for arm builds where log would be
skipped if doing a make hdboot, but not when cross-compiling.

Import the NetBSD rdate command and remove the Minix rdate command.
The default behaviour for both is the same. The NetBSD version adds
options to just display the time, adjust the time using adjtime(),
and set the time without printing the time.
Porting Notes:
- Compiles cleanly out of the box without any warnings
- Path changes from /usr/bin/rdate to /usr/sbin/rdate
- checked pkgsrc for any usages of rdate (none found)
- checked src for any usages of rdate (none found)
Testing:
- all command line options work (tested with time.nist.gov server)
- Native and cross build OK
