When an FS crashes, VFS will clean up resources tied to that FS:
- Pending requests to the FS are canceled (i.e., fail with EIO)
- Threads waiting for a reply are stopped (i.e., fail with EIO)
- Open files are marked invalid. Future operations on a file descriptor
will cause EBADF errors.
- vmnt entry is cleared, so in-flight system calls that got past the
file descriptor check but not yet talking to the crashed FS, will
fail with EIO.
- The reference counter of the mount point is decreased, effectively
removing the crashed FS from the file system tree. Descendants of
this part of the tree are unreachable by means of a path, but can
still be unmounted by feeding the block special file to unmount(2).
This patch also gets rid of the "not a known driver endpoint" messages
during shutdown.
User processes can send signals with number up to _NSIG. There are a few
signal numbers above that used by the kernel, but should explicitly not
be included in the range or range checks in PM will fail.
The system processes use a different version of sigaddset, sigdelset,
sigemptyset, sigfillset, and sigismember which does not include a range
check on signal numbers (as opposed to the normal functions used by normal
processes).
This patch unbreaks test37 when the boot image is compiled with GCC/Clang.
Last_dir didn't consider paths that end in a symlink and hence didn't
actually return the last_dir when provided with one. For example,
/var/log is a symlink to /usr/log. Issuing `>/var/log' would trigger
an assert in AVFS, because /var/ is not the actual last directory; /usr/
is.
Last_dir now verifies the final component is not a symlink. If it is, it
follows the symlink and restarts finding of the last the directory.
- change AcpiOsRemoveInterruptHandler() to print a warning
instead of panic.
- we do the same in AcpiOsInstallInterruptHandler().

- we must not deliver messages from/to unstable address spaces.
In such a case, we must postpone the delivery. To make sute
that a process which is expecting an asynchronous message does
not starve, we must remember that we skipped delivery of some
messages and we must try to deliver again once the source
address space is stable again.
- when kernel copies from userspace, it must be sure that the TLB
entries are not stale and thus the referenced memory is correct
- everytime we change a process' address space we set p_stale_tlb
bits for all CPUs.
- Whenever a cpu finds its bit set when it wants to access the
process' memory, it refreshes the TLB
- it is more conservative than it needs to be but it has low
overhead than checking precisely
- two CPUs can issue IPI to each other now without any hazzard
- we must be able to handle synchronous scheduling IPIs from
other CPUs when we are waiting for attention from another one.
Otherwise we might livelock.
- necessary barriers to prevent reordering
- has_pending() takes a special argument that tells the code
whether we are scanning for asynchronous message or something
else.
- has_pending() is not used directly anymore
- the new functions are wrappings around has_pending() to make
the use more comfortable.
- these functions should become static inline eventually
Remove .ident sections, and force separations of .text and
.data sections into separate program headers, for the benefit
of the check done by MINIX boot monitor in multiboot mode.
When a lock has read-serialized and read-only locks, releasing the read-
serialized lock would not set the state to read-only when no other locks
were pending.
. pre-cleanflag ("old") mkfs generates without CLEAN flag,
causing boot not working because imgrd disappears after 1st
close
. fixed sanity check for this situation
. disable imgrd disappearing in memory driver so
readonly mount succeeds in case it happens anyway
