860224a4d4 stat.h: abi-compatible way to make st_size off_t 2012-08-29 01:20:30 +02:00

7b81254069 VFS: simplify stat for pipes
According to POSIX the st_size field of struct stat is undefined for
fifos and anonymous pipes. Thus we can do anything we want. We save a
copy by not being accurate on pipe sizes.

2fe8fb192f Full switch to clang/ELF. Drop ack. Simplify.
There is important information about booting non-ack images in
docs/UPDATING. ack/aout-format images can't be built any more, and
booting clang/ELF-format ones is a little different. Updating to the
new boot monitor is recommended.

Changes in this commit:

	. drop boot monitor -> allowing dropping ack support
	. facility to copy ELF boot files to /boot so that old boot monitor
	  can still boot fairly easily, see UPDATING
	. no more ack-format libraries -> single-case libraries
	. some cleanup of OBJECT_FMT, COMPILER_TYPE, etc cases
	. drop several ack toolchain commands, but not all support
	  commands (e.g. aal is gone but acksize is not yet).
	. a few libc files moved to netbsd libc dir
	. new /bin/date as minix date used code in libc/
	. test compile fix
	. harmonize includes
	. /usr/lib is no longer special: without ack, /usr/lib plays no
	  kind of special bootstrapping role any more and bootstrapping
	  is done exclusively through packages, so releases depend even
	  less on the state of the machine making them now.
	. rename nbsd_lib* to lib*
	. reduce mtree

ef0a265086 New stat structure.
* VFS and installed MFSes must be in sync before and after this change *

Use struct stat from NetBSD. It requires adding new STAT, FSTAT and LSTAT
syscalls. Libc modification is both backward and forward compatible.

Also new struct stat uses modern field sizes to avoid ABI
incompatibility, when we update uid_t, gid_t and company.
Exceptions are ino_t and off_t in old libc (though paddings added).

958b25be50 - Introduce support for sticky bit.
- Revise VFS-FS protocol and update VFS/MFS/ISOFS accordingly.
- Clean up MFS by removing old, dead code (backwards compatibility is broken by
  the new VFS-FS protocol, anyway) and rewrite other parts. Also, make sure all
  functions have proper banners and prototypes.
- VFS should always provide a (syntactically) valid path to the FS; no need for
  the FS to do sanity checks when leaving/entering mount points.
- Fix several bugs in MFS:
  - Several path lookup bugs in MFS.
  - A link can be too big for the path buffer.
  - A mountpoint can become inaccessible when the creation of a new inode
    fails, because the inode already exists and is a mountpoint.
- Introduce support for supplemental groups.
- Add test 46 to test supplemental group functionality (and removed obsolete
  suppl. tests from test 2).
- Clean up VFS (not everything is done yet).
- ISOFS now opens device read-only. This makes the -r flag in the mount command
  unnecessary (but will still report to be mounted read-write).
- Introduce PipeFS. PipeFS is a new FS that handles all anonymous and
  named pipes. However, named pipes still reside on the (M)FS, as they are part
  of the file system on disk. To make this work VFS now has a concept of
  'mapped' inodes, which causes read, write, truncate and stat requests to be
  redirected to the mapped FS, and all other requests to the original FS.

0b8e20c89e Changes to the include files in order to make cross-compilation possible.
- The primary reason is that mkfs and installboot need to run natively during
  the cross compilation (host and target versions are compiled). There is a
  collision of include files though. E.g. a.out.h is very minix-specific.
  Therefore some files we moved and replaced by stubs that include the original
  file if compiling on or for Minix :
  
  include/a.out.h -> include/minix/a.out.h
  include/sys/dir.h -> include/minix/dir.h
  include/dirent.h -> include/minix/dirent.h
  include/sys/types.h -> include/minix/types.h

- This does not break any native compilation on Minix. Other headers that were
  including the original files are changed according to include directly the
  new, minix specific location not to pick up the host system includes while
  cross-compiling.

- role of this patch is to make rebasing of the build branch simpler until the
  new build system is merged
