This single function allows copying file descriptors from and to
processes, and closing a previously copied remote file descriptor.
This function replaces the five FD-related UDS backcalls. While it
limits the total number of in-flight file descriptors to OPEN_MAX,
this change greatly improves crash recovery support of UDS, since all
in-flight file descriptors will be closed instead of keeping them
open indefinitely (causing VFS to crash on system shutdown). With the
new copyfd call, UDS becomes simpler, and the concept of filps is no
longer exposed outside of VFS.
This patch also moves the checkperms(2) stub into libminlib, thus
fully abstracting away message details of VFS communication from UDS.

- remove non-PCI support, since all supported platforms with at_wini
devices also have PCI support by now;
- correspondingly, stop using information from the BIOS altogether;
- limit each driver instance to one controller, to be in line with
the general MINIX3 one-instance-per-controller driver model; this
limits the number of disks per at_wini instance to four;
- go through the controllers by the order of their occurrence in the
PCI table, thus removing the exception for compatibility devices;
- let the second at_wini instance shut down silently if there is only
one IDE controller;
- clean up some extra code we don't need anymore, and resolve some
WARNS=5 level warnings.
Overall, these changes should simplify automatic loading of the right
disk drivers at boot time in the future.

- change "vid/did" to "vid:did", old form still supported for now;
- allow "vid:did/subvid:subdid" specification in system.conf, in
which case a device will be visible to a driver if the subsystem
VID/DID also match.

This commit separates the low-level keyboard driver from TTY, putting
it in a separate driver (PCKBD). The commit also separates management
of raw input devices from TTY, and puts it in a separate server
(INPUT). All keyboard and mouse input from hardware is sent by drivers
to the INPUT server, which either sends it to a process that has
opened a raw input device, or otherwise forwards it to TTY for
standard processing.
Design by Dirk Vogt. Prototype by Uli Kastlunger.
Additional changes made to the prototype:
- the event communication is now based on USB HID codes; all input
drivers have to use USB codes to describe events;
- all TTY keymaps have been converted to USB format, with the effect
that a single keymap covers all keys; there is no (static) escaped
keymap anymore;
- further keymap tweaks now allow remapping of literally all keys;
- input device renumbering and protocol rewrite;
- INPUT server rewrite, with added support for cancel and select;
- PCKBD reimplementation, including PC/AT-to-USB translation;
- support for manipulating keyboard LEDs has been added;
- keyboard and mouse multiplexer devices have been added to INPUT,
primarily so that an X server need only open two devices;
- a new "libinputdriver" library abstracts away protocol details from
input drivers, and should be used by all future input drivers;
- both INPUT and PCKBD can be restarted;
- TTY is now scheduled by KERNEL, so that it won't be punished for
running a lot; without this, simply running "yes" on the console
kills the system;
- the KIOCBELL IOCTL has been moved to /dev/console;
- support for the SCANCODES termios setting has been removed;
- obsolete keymap compression has been removed;
- the obsolete Olivetti M24 keymap has been removed.

- fail SEF initialization if any of the subtests failed, so that the
party invoking the "service up" can tell whether the test succeeded;
- add "nocontig" option, because VM isn't particularly good at
allocating contiguous memory;
- add "silent" option, because it floods the console otherwise;
- allow the device size to be smaller than the maximum transfer size;
- install files to installed test directory.

Not all services involved in block I/O go through VM to access the
blocks they need. As a result, the blocks in VM may become stale,
possibly causing corruption when the stale copy is restored by a
service that does go through VM later on. This patch restores support
for forgetting cached blocks that belong to a particular device, and
makes the relevant file systems use this functionality 1) when
requested by VFS through REQ_FLUSH, and 2) upon unmount.

* port libgpio to am335x.
* increase NR_IRQ to 16 to avoid too many IRQs requested error.
* move gpio binary to /sbin (that's where mount looks for drivers).

On the AM335X, writes to the padconf registers must be done in privileged
mode. To allow userspace drivers to dynamically change the padconf at
runtime, a kernel call has been added.

The BeagleBone Weather cape enhances the BeagleBone's capabilities
by providing environment sensors (temperature, humidity, pressure,
and ambient light level).
The weatherstation demo is a port of the bonescript weatherstation
to Minix. It provides a nice visual display of the sensor data in
a web browser.
The code is installed to /usr/share/beaglebone/weather on 'earm'
and an embedded web server is started at boot time on port 80
when the cape is attached. Further details are provided in the
README.txt file.

BeagleBone Capes add additional hardware to the BeagleBone to
improve functionality.
This patch probes the third i2c bus for capes and loads the
appropriate drivers for each detected cape. Currently only
the 'BeagleBone Weather' cape is supported.

On the BeagleBoard-xM, the RTC is located on the Power Management IC
(PMIC). To keep things consistent, access to the PMIC's RTC is done
through the readclock driver. The readclock driver forwards the request
on to the TPS65950 driver which does the work of manipulating the
registers on the chip.
Change-Id: I53cefbb59c5a9ab87fab90df3cc1a75a6e430f58
- Simplify the message passing between readclock and the driver.
- Add a -q command line option to suppress warning messages. This
cuts down on the noise when readclock is called early in the boot
sequence and a secondary RTC driver (ex TPS95650) isn't up yet.
- Update the man page to be less i386 centric and add details about
the new -q option.
Change-Id: If8d7c50a217ca98c1e9fae0ca92521e2e7c893e4
Add support for getting/setting the am335x SoC's internal real
time clock. Also, allow the power off alarm to be set.
Make readclock an "always on" driver. This is needed for setting
power-off alarms whenever the power button is pressed on the BBB.
Replace the readclock.sh script & single run driver with a
readclock program that takes the same arguments and forwards
the requests on to the always up readclock driver.

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).

This program uses the i2c /dev interface to read the
contents of EEPROMs and display it to the user in
HEX and ASCII. It also has a mode that can display
data in label:value pairs. That mode is used for
board detection in the rc script to start the right
i2c drivers for the board.

-By adding MKGCC=yes and MKGCCCMDS=yes on the make commandline
it is now possible to compile and install GCC on the system.
Before doing this, if you are not using the build.sh script,
you will need to call the fetch scripts in order to retrieve
the sources of GCC and its dependencies.
-Reduce difference with NetBSD share/mk
Move Minix-specific parameters from bsd.gcc.mk to bsd.own.mk,
which is anyway patched, so that bsd.gcc.mk is now aligned
on the NetBSD version.
-Clean libraries dependencies, compiles stdc++ only if gcc is
also compiled (it is part of the gcc sources)
-Correct minix.h header sequence, cleanup spec headers.
-Fix cross-compilation from a 32bit host targeting MINIX/arm
Change-Id: I1b234af18eed4ab5675188244e931b2a2b7bd943
- 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.

. test74 for mmap functionality
. vm: add a mem_file memory type that specifies an mmap()ped
memory range, backed by a file
. add fdref, an object that keeps track of FD references within
VM per process and so knows how to de-duplicate the use of FD's
by various mmap()ped ranges; there can be many more than there can
be FD's
. turned off for now, enable with 'filemap=1' as boot option

. libc: add vfs_mmap, a way for vfs to initiate mmap()s.
This is a good special case to have as vfs is a slightly
different client from regular user processes. It doesn't do it
for itself, and has the dev & inode info already so the callback
to VFS for the lookup isn't necessary. So it has different info
to have to give to VM.
. libc: also add minix_mmap64() that accepts a 64-bit offset, even
though our off_t is still 32 bit now.
. On exec() time, try to mmap() in the executable if available.
(It is not yet available in this commit.)
. To support mmap(), add do_vm_call that allows VM to lookup
(to ino+dev), do i/o from and close FD's on behalf of other
processes.

A few symlinks were pointing to a nonexistent file named '(null)'
instead of their intended target. This was only seen when using the
arm_sdimage.sh script.
There is two ways of specifying links and directories. the first one
using an entry in one of the mtree files, and the second one in
/etc/Makefile.
Those entries where doubled, and one of them would specify some rights,
while the other had the target.
By removing those entries, I make sure there is only one definition of
these symlinks, which solves the problem I was seeing on an ARM image.
These symlinks are still present on a generated system, as they are
required.
