This patch adds support for Unix98 pseudo terminals, that is,
posix_openpt(3), grantpt(3), unlockpt(3), /dev/ptmx, and /dev/pts/.
The latter is implemented with a new pseudo file system, PTYFS.
In effect, this patch adds secure support for unprivileged pseudo
terminal allocation, allowing programs such as tmux(1) to be used by
non-root users as well. Test77 has been extended with new tests, and
no longer needs to run as root.
The new functionality is optional. To revert to the old behavior,
remove the "ptyfs" entry from /etc/fstab.
Technical nodes:
o The reason for not implementing the NetBSD /dev/ptm approach is that
implementing the corresponding ioctl (TIOCPTMGET) would require
adding a number of extremely hairy exceptions to VFS, including the
PTY driver having to create new file descriptors for its own device
nodes.
o PTYFS is required for Unix98 PTYs in order to avoid that the PTY
driver has to be aware of old-style PTY naming schemes and even has
to call chmod(2) on a disk-backed file system. PTY cannot be its
own PTYFS since a character driver may currently not also be a file
system. However, PTYFS may be subsumed into a DEVFS in the future.
o The Unix98 PTY behavior differs somewhat from NetBSD's, in that
slave nodes are created on ptyfs only upon the first call to
grantpt(3). This approach obviates the need to revoke access as
part of the grantpt(3) call.
o Shutting down PTY may leave slave nodes on PTYFS, but once PTY is
restarted, these leftover slave nodes will be removed before they
create a security risk. Unmounting PTYFS will make existing PTY
slaves permanently unavailable, and absence of PTYFS will block
allocation of new Unix98 PTYs until PTYFS is (re)mounted.

This allows to both override the default package repository and
preinstalled packages list from the command line or the environment.
Also use everywhere PACKAGEURL.

This allows the URL used to clone our specific version of u-boot to be
specified in the environment, instead of being hard-coded.
This new flexibility will be required by the new Continuous Integration
infrastructure, whose test nodes are in a network without direct
internet access.

. bitcode fixes
. switch to compiler-rt instead of netbsd libc functions
or libgcc for support functions for both x86 and arm
. minor build fixes
. allow build with llvm without crossbuilding llvm itself
. can now build minix/arm using llvm and eabi - without C++
support for now (hence crossbuilding llvm itself is turned off
for minix/arm)

- Fixed missing variable interpolation because of single quotes
- Replaced /bin/sh in gen_uEnv.txt.sh with /usr/bin/env bash as the default
echo doesn't support '-n'
- Fixed some whitespace errors
- A succesful build requires for now to skip the gold linker on OSX.

. let you specify IMG as a block device directly. this minimizes
i/o (only write used parts of the filesystem) and so turnaround
time - while still allowing the big default FS size.

. source release.functions with explicit path
. make xargs touch not fail (due to too long invocations
and spaces in paths)

- Removed an "export CPPFLAGS=${FLAG}" which prevented proper settings
from the environment to be passed to the build step.
- Re-arranged variable settings at the top, so that we don't need
to evaluate the argument to vfat mkfs command anymore in
arm_sdimage.sh
- "Merged" both script for easier comparison in the future.

As we have switched to a local git repository containing the NetBSD
reference, at specific points in time, the following scripts are not
anymore useful.

. we need libc++ in the base system
. big packages & sources don't fit on the cd any more
. the fetch scripts have to be triggered for some tools

Allows instrumentation of Minix components using LLVM passes from
"llvm-apps" repository
In addition, the change does the following:
1. Move releasetools/generate_gold_plugin.sh to minix/llvm
2. Move external/bsd/llvm/passes to minix/llvm/passes
3. libLTO.so, LLVMgold.so and WeakAliasModuleOverride.so files
now get installed in minix/llvm/bin
This patch is a ugly, but a this moment I have no better alternatives to
offer.
- Add a script to compile the llvm sources through the standard
makefiles instead of the bsd build system. The produced gold plugin
is then copied into the source tree and used from there by the BSD
Makefiles.

Rreleasetools/arm_sdimage.sh uses a ".settings" file to allow to override
the defaults settings found in arm_sdimage. This change allows to use an
alternate file for this purpose. We figured out more programs (like eclipse)
use a ".settings" file.
One can tweak the settings files to use by settings the SETTINGS_MINIX
variable
SETTING_MINIX=.settings_minix

Check if the .settings entry is a file and not a directory. Eclipse
as we found out also likes creating .settings directories.

has to run as root so it can flush the FS cache; needed to
force FS cache misses for unmapped pages.
See the comment in test74.c for a full description of what the tested
cases are.
also re-enable filemap on arm
The syntax of the stat(1) command varies between Linux and FreeBSD.
This prevented `x86_hdimage.sh -i` from succeeding on FreeBSD 10.0.
The fix is to use the NetBSD stat from the tooldir for all systems.

Remove the usage of sloppy files list in the build scripts to
get early errors when files are added.

- Fix for possible unset uid/gid in toproto
- Fix for default mtree style
- Update libelf
- Importing libexecinfo
- Resynchronize GCC, mpc, gmp, mpfr
- build.sh: Replace params with show-params.
This has been done as the make target has been renamed in the same
way, while a new target named params has been added. This new
target generates a file containing all the parameters, instead of
printing it on the console.
- Update test48 with new etc/services (Fix by Ben Gras <ben@minix3.org)
get getservbyport() out of the inner loop
