include grant id in DEV_REVIVE messages.
. Removal of TTY_FLAGS field (and so O_NONBLOCK support).
. Fixed CANCEL behaviour and return code on blocking I/O,
previously handled by O_NONBLOCK
. Totally removed REVIVE replies, previously still possible on
blocking ioctls (REVIVE directly called) and ptys (missing TTY_REVIVE
check), removes deadlock bug with FS
. Removed obsolete *COMPAT options and associated code
initialization. One-time init is called from tty.
Side effect is that the one-time init is done after the sys_getmachine()
call, which makes set_leds() work, which makes numlock go off at booting.
Output during initialization should be suppressed. Unless an error occurs.
Note that main() can now be main(int argc, char **argv) and arguments can
be passed when bringing up the driver.
to provide an index (0 .. 31) that is passed in the HARD_INT message when an
interrupt occurs. The NOTIFY_ARG field contains a bitmap with all indexes for
which an interrupt occured.
TTY: select and revive with new notify and FS call back;
kernel: removed old notify code; removed ugly prepare_shutdown timer
kputc: don't send to FS if PRINTF_PROC fails
The TTY driver now only notifies the IS server about function key event,
but does not tell which keys are pressed. The IS servers queries the TTY
driver to find out about this.
* Removed some variants of the SYS_GETINFO calls from the kernel;
replaced them with new PM and utils libary functionality. Fixed
bugs in utils library that used old get_kenv() variant.
* Implemented a buffer in the kernel to gather random data.
Memory driver periodically checks this for /dev/random.
A better random algorithm can now be implemented in the driver.
Removed SYS_RANDOM; the SYS_GETINFO call is used instead.
* Remove SYS_KMALLOC from the kernel. Memory allocation can now
be done at the process manager with new 'other' library functions.
names. All system processes can now either use panic() or report() from
libutils, or redefine their own function. Assertions are done via the standard
<assert.h> functionality.
