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.
map table), make it map in video memory.
sadly, this breaks tty in non-paged mode.
happily, this simplifies the code by throwing out the messing
around with segments, and throws out vidcopy.s.
a little cleaner (escaped scancodes are less of a special case) and
lets us be completely flexible when assigning meaning to them.
Future: a tool and ioctl to load the escaped keymap.
now used for printing diagnostic messages through the kernel message
buffer. this lets processes print diagnostics without sending messages
to tty and log directly, simplifying the message protocol a lot and
reducing difficulties with deadlocks and other situations in which
diagnostics are blackholed (e.g. grants don't work). this makes
DIAGNOSTICS(_S), ASYN_DIAGNOSTICS and DIAG_REPL obsolete, although tty
and log still accept the codes for 'old' binaries. This also simplifies
diagnostics in several servers and drivers - only tty needs its own
kputc() now.
. simplifications in vfs, and some effort to get the vnode references
right (consistent) even during shutdown. m_mounted_on is now NULL
for root filesystems (!) (the original and new root), a less awkward
special case than 'm_mounted_on == m_root_node'. root now has exactly
one reference, to root, if no files are open, just like all other
filesystems. m_driver_e is unused.
. memory maps in physical memory (for /dev/mem) with new vm interface
. pci complete_bars() seems to be buggy behaviour sometimes
. startup script opens its own stdout, stderr and stdin so init doesn't
have to do it
