. changed umount() and mount() to call 'service', so that it can include
a custom label, so that umount() works again (RS slot gets freed now).
merged umount() and mount() into one file to encode keep this label
knowledge in one file.
. removed obsolete RS_PID field and RS_RESCUE rescue command
. added label to RS_START struct
. vfs no longer does kill of fs process on unmount (which was failing
due to RS_PID request not working)
. don't assume that if error wasn't one of three errors, that no error
occured in vfs/request.c
mfs changes:
. added checks to copy statements to truncate copies at buffer sizes
(left in debug code for now)
. added checks for null-terminatedness, if less than NAME_MAX was copied
. added checks for copy function success
is changes:
. dump rs label
drivers.conf changes:
. added acl for mfs so that mfs can be started with 'service start',
so that a custom label can be provided
-script argument to service for crash recovery scripts
-config argument to service for driver resource configuration
restart command in service to restart a driver after a crash (for use in
crash recovery scripts).
down and refresh now take labels instead of pids.
verious changes in rs to make this work.
form. Subscriptions are regular expressions.
. different types are stored per key; currently u32 and/or string.
the same key can be referenced (publish, subscribe, check) as any type.
. notify()s are sent when subscriptions are triggered (publishing or
updating of matching keys); optionally, a subscribe flag sends
updates for all matching keys at subscription time, instead of only
after updates after subscribing
. all interfacing to ds is in /usr/src/lib/syslib/ds.c.
. subscribe is ds_subscribe
publish functions are ds_publish_<type>
retrieve functions are ds_retrieve_<type> (one-time retrieval of a value)
check functions are ds_check_<type> (check for updated key caller
subscribes to not yet checked for, or ESRCH for none)
. ramdisk driver updated with new ds interface
Added BUSC_PCI_DEV_NAME_S and BUSC_PCI_SLOT_NAME_S to support safecopies in PCI.
Added DL_WRITEV_S, DL_READV_S, DL_GETSTAT_S, DL_GRANT, and iovec_s_t to support
safecopies in ethernet drviers. Renamed DL_INIT to DL_CONF, and DL_INIT_REPLY
to DL_CONF_REPLY.
Added SYS_READBIOS and sys_readbios to read from BIOS data areas.
Added GET_KMESS_S for safecopy support in LOG.
Added sys_safe_insb and sys_safe_outsb.
and DEV_IOCTL_S as replacements for DEV_READ, DEV_WRITE, DEV_SCATTER,
DEV_GATHER and DEV_IOCTL. Instead of a direct address, the *_S commands
pass 'grant ids' to the drivers which are referenced through a new set
of copy calls (sys_safecopyfrom and sys_safecopyto). in order for this
copy to succeed, the grant must have previously been created in the
address space of the granter.
. bitmap manipulation functions moved to <minix/bitmap.h>
. HIGHPOS introduced as field containing high 32 bits of position in
device I/O message; TTY_FLAGS no longer used
. IO_GRANT field introduced for GRANTs, to replace ADDRESS
. REP_IO_GRANT field for un-SUSPEND messages introduced to indicate
grant for which I/O was done to disambiguate messages
. SYS_SAFECOPYFROM and SYS_SAFECOPYTO introduced as new calls
. SYS_PRIV_SET_GRANTS code introduced as a code to set the address and
size of the grant table in a process' own address space
. 'type' and 'direction' field of _ins* and _outs* I/O functions
are merged into one by ORing _DIO_INPUT/_DIO_OUTPUT and _DIO_BYTE/_DIO_WORD
etc. This allows for an additional parameter, _DIO_SAFE, which indicates
the address in another address space isn't actually an address, but
a grant id. Also needs an offset, for which fields had to be merged.
. SCP_* are field names for SYS_SAFECOPY* functions
. DIAGNOSTICS and GET_KMESS moved to their own range above DIAG_BASE,
added DIAGNOSTICS_S which is a grant-based variant of DIAGNOSTICS
. removed obsolete BINCOMPAT and SRCCOMPAT options
. added GRANT_SEG type for use in vircopy - allows copying to a grant
id (without offset)
. added _MINIX_IOCTL_* macros that decode information encoded by
_IO* macros in ioctl codes, used to check which grants are necessary
for an ioctl
. introduced the type endpoint_t for process endpoints, changed some
prototypes and struct field types to match
. renamed protected to prot for g++
. rename message field name macros from *PROC* to *ENDPT*,
both to reflect the new meaning and to use it to hunt down where
they are used
. _PM_SEG_FLAG in fd replaces funny segment loading construction by
PM in FS
. _MAX_MAGIC_PROC is the highest used proc number, including magic
constants such as (currently) ANY, NONE and SELF, used by the
endpoint macros to make sure they are encoded properly and no valid
endpoint number ever encodes to it.
. rename proc_nr in address copy struct to proc_nr_e (endpoint)
enforced. If a call is denied, this will be kprinted. Please report any such
errors, so that I can adjust the mask before returning errors instead of
warnings.
Wrote CMOS driver. All CMOS code from FS has been removed. Currently the
driver only supports get time calls. Set time is left out as an exercise
for the book readers ... startup scripts were updated because the CMOS driver
is needed early on. (IS got same treatment.) Don't forget to run MAKEDEV cmos
in /dev/, otherwise the driver cannot be loaded.
The user needs to set label=... to choose the driver of his or her choice.
This driver will be mapped onto the controller that is set in controller=...
Minor cleanup of kernel source code (boot image table now is static).
This was caused by a change in the shared driver code. Not log's fault.
Renamed #definitions of driver process numbers, e.g., TTY now is TTY_PROC_NR.
All known (special) processes now have consistent naming scheme. Kernel tasks
don't follow this scheme.
- SIGKMESS: new kernel message (sent to TTY, IS, or LOG)
- SIGKSTOP: MINIX is shut down (sent to TTY-> switch to primary console)
- SIGKSIG: kernel signals pending (sent to PM)
Renamed SYS_SETPRIORITY to SYS_NICE.
