6168bcefa6 Fix bios_wini using wrong size for vector (Bug#280, reported by John Peace) 2009-10-01 16:59:04 +00:00

89bf7bae27 - tty: only report unrecognized scancodes once; forget about
remembering the origin and cursor position as that feature didn't
   really work properly anyway
 - tty: map in video and font memory using a vm call, access it from C,
   thereby eliminating pesky weird segment calls and assembly to access it,
   and unbreaks loadfont (Roman Ignatov)
 - bios_wini: fix bios_wini by allocating a <1MB buffers for it
 - memory: preallocate ramdisk, makes it a bit faster (and doesn't
   fail halfway if you allocate a huge one)
 - floppy: use <1MB buffer
 - ramdisk proto: because of the 2x1 page reservations, binaries
   got a little fatter and didn't fit on the ramdisk any more.
   increase it.

c078ec0331 Basic VM and other minor improvements.
Not complete, probably not fully debugged or optimized.

8ea438ae93 Retired DEV_{READ,WRITE,GATHER,SCATTER,IOCTL} (safe versions *_S are to
be used and drivers should never receieve these 'unsafe' variants
any more).

b01aff70d2 use servers/inet/mq.[ch] to queue messages using mq_queue() in
libdriver.  at_wini now queues messages it can't handle it receives when
waiting for an interrupt. this way it can do receive(ANY) and timeouts
should be working again (were broken for VFS, as with the advent of VFS,
at_wini could get requests from a filesystem while it was waiting for an
interrupt - as a hack, the receive() was changed to receive(HARDWARE)).

Added mq.c to libdriver, and made libdriver an actual library that
drivers link with -L../libdriver -ldriver. (So adding files, if
necessary, is easier next time.)

for printf().

f877da3aec endpoint migration for drivers.
mostly renaming message field names to the new names.

tty stored process numbers in chars in tty and pty structs - now ints.

c392c177b5 Boot environment option 'bios_remap_first'. Thios option remaps the first
BIOS drive to d7, the second BIOS drive to d0, the third to d1, etc. This
useful for CD-ROM hardisk emulation.
