0bd011affd PM: extend srv_fork to set a specific UID
Currently, all servers and drivers run as root as they are forks of
RS. srv_fork now tells PM with which credentials to run the resulting
fork. Subsequently, PM lets VFS now as well.

This patch also fixes the following bugs:
 - RS doesn't initialize the setugid variable during exec, causing the
   servers and drivers to run setuid rendering the srv_fork extension
   useless.
 - PM erroneously tells VFS to run processes setuid. This doesn't
   actually lead to setuid processes as VFS sets {r,e}uid and {r,e}gid
   properly before checking PM's approval.

5c0927e108 SMP - clock calibration spurious IRQ deadlock fix
- this patch fixes a deadlock which may occur if we get a
   spurious interrupt while calibrating clocks during the boot
   time. Since we never handle interrupts while in the kernel
   (BKL locked) the interrupt code locks the lock. This is a
   different situation, a corner case, boot time only. We do not
   return to userspace but to the kernel, so the BKL is not
   unlocked. So we need irq handler which leaves the BKL
   unlocked.  The clock handler does it already, this patch adds
   a dummy spurious irq handler for the same reason. It is better
   to handle the situation this way to keep the normal runtime
   code simple.

8fa95abae4 SMP - fixed usage of stale TLB entries
- when kernel copies from userspace, it must be sure that the TLB
  entries are not stale and thus the referenced memory is correct

- everytime we change a process' address space we set p_stale_tlb
  bits for all CPUs.

- Whenever a cpu finds its bit set when it wants to access the
  process' memory, it refreshes the TLB

- it is more conservative than it needs to be but it has low
  overhead than checking precisely

e7db2d3588 Add fbd -- Faulty Block Device driver
This driver can be loaded as an overlay on top of a real block
device, and can then be used to generate block-level failures for
certain transfer requests. Specifically, a rule-based system allows
the user to introduce (overt and silent) data corruption and errors.

It exposes itself through /dev/fbd, and a file system can be mounted
on top of it. The new fbdctl(8) tool can be used to control the
driver; see ``man fbdctl'' for details. It also comes with a test
set, located in test/fbdtest.

4005bba437 libblockdriver: clear IPC only on stateful restart
This removes a race condition when the block driver performs a
complete restart after a crash (the new default). If any user of
the driver finds out its new endpoint and sends a request to the
new driver instance before this instance has had the chance to
initialize, then its initialization would clear all IPC state and
thereby erroneously cancel the incoming request. Clearing IPC
state is only desired upon a stateful restart (where the driver's
endpoint is retained). This information is now passed to and used
by libblockdriver accordingly.

6f374faca5 Add "expected size" parameter to getsysinfo()
This patch provides basic protection against damage resulting from
differently compiled servers blindly copying tables to one another.
In every getsysinfo() call, the caller is provided with the expected
size of the requested data structure. The callee fails the call if
the expected size does not match the data structure's actual size.

driver, which implies it wants the library to handle getting and

b4d909d415 Split block/character protocols and libdriver
This patch separates the character and block driver communication
protocols. The old character protocol remains the same, but a new
block protocol is introduced. The libdriver library is replaced by
two new libraries: libchardriver and libblockdriver. Their exposed
API, and drivers that use them, have been updated accordingly.
Together, libbdev and libblockdriver now completely abstract away
the message format used by the block protocol. As the memory driver
is both a character and a block device driver, it now implements its
own message loop.

The most important semantic change made to the block protocol is that
it is no longer possible to return both partial results and an error
for a single transfer. This simplifies the interaction between the
caller and the driver, as the I/O vector no longer needs to be copied
back. Also, drivers are now no longer supposed to decide based on the
layout of the I/O vector when a transfer should be cut short. Put
simply, transfers are now supposed to either succeed completely, or
result in an error.

After this patch, the state of the various pieces is as follows:
- block protocol: stable
- libbdev API: stable for synchronous communication
- libblockdriver API: needs slight revision (the drvlib/partition API
  in particular; the threading API will also change shortly)
- character protocol: needs cleanup
- libchardriver API: needs cleanup accordingly
- driver restarts: largely unsupported until endpoint changes are
  reintroduced

As a side effect, this patch eliminates several bugs, hacks, and gcc
-Wall and -W warnings all over the place. It probably introduces a
few new ones, too.

Update warning: this patch changes the protocol between MFS and disk
drivers, so in order to use old/new images, the MFS from the ramdisk
must be used to mount all file systems.

a209c3ae12 Fix a ton of compiler warnings
This patch fixes most of current reasons to generate compiler warnings.
The changes consist of:
 - adding missing casts
 - hiding or unhiding function declarations
 - including headers where missing
 - add __UNCONST when assigning a const char * to a char *
 - adding missing return statements
 - changing some types from unsigned to signed, as the code seems to want
   signed ints
 - converting old-style function definitions to current style (i.e.,
   void func(param1, param2) short param1, param2; {...} to
   void func (short param1, short param2) {...})
 - making the compiler silent about signed vs unsigned comparisons. We
   have too many of those in the new libc to fix.

A number of bugs in the test set were fixed. These bugs were never
triggered with our old libc. Consequently, these tests are now forced to
link with the new libc or they will generate errors (in particular tests 43
and 55).

Most changes in NetBSD libc are limited to moving aroudn "#ifndef __minix"
or stuff related to Minix-specific things (code in sys-minix or gen/minix).

af01bda509 libbdev: initial version
The "bdev" library provides basic primitives for file systems to talk
to block device drivers, hiding the details of the underlying protocol
and interaction model.

This version of libbdev is rather basic. It is planned to support the
following features in the long run:

 - asynchronous requests and replies;
 - recovery support for underlying block drivers;
 - retrying of failed I/O requests.

The commit also changes our block-based file systems (mfs, ext2, isofs)
to make use of libbdev.

e1d867b686 ahci/libdriver: multithreading support
This patch adds support for executing multiple concurrent requests on
different devices on the same AHCI controller. The libdriver library
has been extended to include a generic multithreading interface, and
the AHCI driver has been extended to make use of this interface.

The original version of this code has been written by Arne Welzel.

In some places it was assumed that PATH_MAX does not include a

rewriting in AVFS to keep memory usage low (the stack in use by a thread
