The main motivation for this change is that only Loris supports
multithreading, and Loris supports dynamic thread allocation, so the
number of supported threads can be implemented as a bit flag (i.e.,
either 1 or "at least as many as VFS has"). The ABI break obviates the
need to support file system versioning at this time, and several
other aspects are better implemented as flags as well. Other changes:
- replace peek/bpeek test upon mount with FS flag as well;
- mark libsffs as 64-bit file size capable;
- remove old (3.2.1) getdents support.

This is a requirement for implementing calls such as getmntinfo(3).
VFS is now responsible for filling in some of the structure's fields.

This commit introduces a new request type called REQ_BPEEK. It
requests minor device blocks from the FS. Analogously to REQ_PEEK,
it requests the filesystem to get the requested blocks into its
cache, without actually copying the result anywhere.

In order to make it more clear that ticks should be used for timers
and realtime should be used for timestamps / displaying the date/time,
getuptime() was renamed to getticks() and getuptime2() was renamed to
getuptime().
Servers, drivers, libraries, tests, etc that use getuptime()/getuptime2()
have been updated. In instances where a realtime was calculated, the
calculation was changed to use realtime.
System calls clock_getres() and clock_gettime() were added to PM/libc.
Fix warnings about:
. Unused variables
. format mismatch in printf/scanf format string and arguments
. Missing parenthesis around assignment as truth values
. Clang warnings anout unknown GCC pragma
The tested targets are the followgin ones:
* tools
* distribution
* sets
* release
The remaining NetBSD targets have not been disabled nor tested
*at all*. Try them at your own risk, they may reboot the earth.
For all compliant Makefiles, objects and generated files are put in
MAKEOBJDIR, which means you can now keep objects between two branch
switching. Same for DESTDIR, please refer to build.sh options.
Regarding new or modifications of Makefiles a few things:
* Read share/mk/bsd.README
* If you add a subdirectory, add a Makefile in it, and have it called
by the parent through the SUBDIR variable.
* Do not add arbitrary inclusion which crosses to another branch of
the hierarchy; If you can't do without it, put a comment on why.
If possible, do not use inclusion at all.
* Use as much as possible the infrastructure, it is here to make
life easier, do not fight it.
Sets and package are now used to track files.
We have one set called "minix", composed of one package called "minix-sys"
. all invocations were S or D, so can safely be dropped
to prepare for the segmentless world
. still assign D to the SCP_SEG field in the message
to make previous kernels usable
WARNING: this will break existing dynamically linked binaries if they
exist. If you have any:
. re-build world statically first if necessary
. remove libraries from /lib and /usr/lib
. then build world
This change:
. avoids possible future dismay when interfacing other
systems' binaries; done until they are abi-compatible
Thanks to Antoine Leca for pointing this out.
building defaults to off until clang is updated.
current clang does not handle -shared, necessary to change the ld
invocation to build shared libraries properly. a new clang should be
installed and MKPIC defaults to no unless the newer clang is detected.
changes:
. mainly small imports of a Makefile or two and small fixes
(turning things back on that were turned off in Makefiles)
. e.g.: dynamic librefuse now depends on dynamic
libpuffs, so libpuffs has to be built dynamically too
and a make dependency barrier is needed in lib/Makefile
. all library objects now have a PIC (for .so) and non-PIC
version, so everything is built twice.
. generate PIC versions of the compat (un-RENAMEd) jump files,
include function type annotation in generated assembly
. build progs with -static by default for now
. also build ld.elf_so
. also import NetBSD ldd
Import libpuffs and our port of libpuffs. The port was done as part of
GSoC 2011 FUSE project, done by Evgeniy Ivanov. The librefuse import
did not require any porting efforts. Libpuffs has been modified to
understand our VFS-FS protocol and translate between that and PUFFS. As
an example that it works, fuse-ntfs-3g from pkgsrc can be compiled and
used to mount ntfs partitions:
mount -t ntfs-3g <device> <mountpoint>
FUSE only works with the asynchronous version of VFS. See <docs/UPDATING> on
how to run AVFS.
This patch further includes some changes to mount(1) and mount(2) so it's
possible to use file systems provided by pkgsrc (note: manual modifications
to /etc/system.conf are still needed. There has been made an exception for
fuse-ntfs-3g, so it already as an entry).
