e561081545 Miscellaneous clean ups and fixes to the kernel.
Support for FLOPPY in boot image. (Set controller=fd at boot monitor.)
Moved major device numbers to <minix/dmap.h> (maybe rename to dev.h?)

d62e515660 Small update to SYS_IRQCTL -> setting an interrupt policy now allows the caller
to provide an index (0 .. 31) that is passed in the HARD_INT message when an
interrupt occurs. The NOTIFY_ARG field contains a bitmap with all indexes for
which an interrupt occured.

8866b4d0ef Kernel changes:
- reinstalled priority changing, now in sched() and unready()
- reinstalled check on message buffer in sys_call()
- reinstalled check in send masks in sys_call()
- changed do_fork() to get new privilege structure for SYS_PROCs
- removed some processes from boot image---will be dynamically started later

f0594a9e6d - Fixed comments in various system call handlers. Work in progress on new
sys_privctl() call to dynamically start servers and drivers.

- Shutdown sequence slightly adjusted: called as watchdog timer to let the
  busy sys_abort() call from the PM return first.

- Changed umap_bios() to have more restrictive check: BIOS memory is now
  allowed in BIOS_MEM_BEGIN to END (interrupt vectors) and BASE_MEM_TOP
  to UPPER_MEM_END. Hopefully this keeps QEMU and Bochs happy.

c0718054e9 Various fixes and improvements.
- fixed bug that caused IDLE to panic (irq hook inconsistency);
- kprintf() now accepts multiple arguments; moved to utility.c;
- prepare_shutdown() signals system processes with SIGKSTOP;
- phys_fill() renamed to phys_memset(), argument order changed;
- kmemset() removed in favor of phys_kmemset();
- kstrncpy() removed in favor of phys_copy();
- katoi, kstrncmp replaced by normal library procedure again;
- rm_irq_handler() interface changed (simply pass hook pointer);

198c976f7e System processes can be signaled; signals are transformed in SYS_EVENT message
that passes signal map along. This mechanisms is also used for nonuser signals
like SIGKMESS, SIGKSTOP, SIGKSIG.

Revised comments of many system call handlers. Renamed setpriority to nice.

Extracted privileged features from struct proc and create new struct priv.
Renamed various system calls for readability.

bac6068857 Rewrite of process scheduling:
- current and maximum priority per process;
- quantum size and current ticks left per process;
- max number of full quantums in a row allow
  (otherwise current priority is decremented)

a408699ce0 Cleaned up process table structure: removed p_type, p_pendcount.
Removed stop sequence when MINIX is shut down.
Disabled send mask checks --- to be replaced by proper mechanism.
Fixed bug relating to 'shutdown -x'.
Simplified clock accounting of realtime.
Updated Makefiles for mkdept script.

355a10864b Fixed various GCC compiler warnings for the kernel.
Only main() now gives a warning about the return type (GCC wants an int).

ec24a0798c Updated function key mapping because of possible changes to NOTIFY.
The TTY driver now only notifies the IS server about function key event,
but does not tell which keys are pressed. The IS servers queries the TTY
driver to find out about this.

e0a98a4d65 * Fixed bug relating to nested locking in interrupt handlers. The nested lock
caused interrupts to be reenabled (due to unlock), which caused a race. The
problems were especially visible on slower machines.
* Relocated free memory parsing to process manager. This saved quite some
code at the kernel level. Text size was reduced by about 650 bytes.
* Removed locks for updating the realtime in the clock's main loop and the
get_uptime function. Interrupts are no longer reentrant, so realtime is
immediately updated.

0e2a7a9730 Kernel cleanup.
Reduced kernel size by 512KB by moving private buffer into cstart() function.
Replaced assertions with erroneous return values. Removed assertions relating
to isuserp(rp), since all processes should become user processes; system
processes are now treated similar to other processes.

f2a85e58d9 Various updates.
* Removed some variants of the SYS_GETINFO calls from the kernel;
  replaced them with new PM and utils libary functionality. Fixed
  bugs in utils library that used old get_kenv() variant.
* Implemented a buffer in the kernel to gather random data.
  Memory driver periodically checks this for /dev/random.
  A better random algorithm can now be implemented in the driver.
  Removed SYS_RANDOM; the SYS_GETINFO call is used instead.
* Remove SYS_KMALLOC from the kernel. Memory allocation can now
  be done at the process manager with new 'other' library functions.

c977bd8709 Added args to lock() and unlock() to tell them apart, for use
when lock timing is enabled in minix/config.h.

Added phys_zero() routine to klib386.s that zeroes a range of memory, and
added corresponding system call.

0165662cd9 Replaced flagalrm() timers with another technique to check for timeouts.
This allowed removing the p_flagarlm timer from the kernel's process table.
Furthermore, I merged p_syncalrm and p_signalrm into p_alarm_timer to save
even more space. Note that processes can no longer have both a signal and
synchronous alarm timer outstanding as of now.

322ec9ef8b Moved stime, time, times POSIX calls from FS to PM. Removed child time
accounting from kernel (now in PM).  Large amount of files in this commit
is due to system time problems during development.

77c3213948 Optimized scheduling code. Old code is still available withing DEAD_CODE
and NEW_SCHED_Q definitions. Some minor problems are being traced at the
moment. This commit is meant to backup my files.

ccd17ecfed New NOTIFY system call! Queued at kernel. Duplicate messages (with same source
and type) are overwritten with newer flags/ arguments. The interface from
within the kernel is lock_notify(). User processes can make a system call with
notify(). NOTIFY fully replaces the old notification mechanism.

307c825515 New NOTIFY trap (IPC call) to send queued notification messages.
The call works. Permission check, restriction of outstanding notifications
to be added. Low level code to make it work from within interrupt handlers
will be added as well.

d0c3e8f818 . added rm_irq_handler which un-links an irq handler from the linked
list of handlers, callable by irqctl system call
 . workaround for hanging keyboard bug after shutdown.. if key is pressed
   during or after shutdown procedure, keyboard stops working. It looks like
   irq 1 gets stuck high if no keyboard reading is done (e.g. because the
   irq is masked or tty driver has exited). Workaround is to leave irqs
   enabled until the last second, and call shutdown() immediately after the
   last driver has stopped (tty task). This way the chance of an unserviced
   interrupt occuring is negligible.
