The CD now boots directly from the ISO 9660 filesystem instead of using
MBR partitioning with Minix file systems. This saves some space on the
CD and reduces memory requirements by some unknown amount as the root
ramdisk is completely eliminated.
The x86 hard drive image creation is also rewritten in the same
fashion.
The setup is modified to be more NetBSD-like (unpacking sets
tarballs instead of blindly copying the CD contents). Splitting MINIX
into sets is done in another commit due to it being a nightmare to
rebase.
Since MINIX lacks union mounts for now, a bunch of ramdisks are
generated at run-time to make parts of the filesystem writeable for the
CD. This solution isn't ideal, but it's enough for an installation CD.

There are currently no devices out there that require this change.
The change is merely needed to support subsequent changes.

We already had a hack to ignore the precision, but the ACPI driver
requires an actual implementation--it prints garbage at the end of
some strings otherwise. This patch adds support for precision for
strings only, limiting printing to the given number of characters.
For all other specifiers, precision is still unsupported.

Previously, the bootloader would only provide a single memory range.
At least on VirtualBox, this memory range includes the ACPI tables,
which the kernel then happily overwrites when executing VM. Much of
the infrastructure to use a fullblown memory map is already in place;
this patch adds the last (and strangely missing) bit of generating
the memory map in a multiboot-compatible way.
It should be noted that both the bootloader and the kernel actually
violate the multiboot specification by not packing the structure for
the memory ranges. This is a NetBSD bug, but it is also a nonissue
for (our) practical purposes. It can be fixed without changing the
code added in this patch.

. bitcode fixes
. switch to compiler-rt instead of netbsd libc functions
or libgcc for support functions for both x86 and arm
. minor build fixes
. allow build with llvm without crossbuilding llvm itself
. can now build minix/arm using llvm and eabi - without C++
support for now (hence crossbuilding llvm itself is turned off
for minix/arm)

Alternatives should be considered (such as changing our keymaps to
better match NetBSD) in due time, but for now, the current default
is incredibly annoying!

existing libunwind used '0' in lsda_encoding as 'not present,'
whereas that is a valid encoding and does occur and would be
ignored. a missing encoding is actually 0xff.
The commit that addresses this is:

0 is a valid LSDA encoding and can be seen in statically linked
programs. Initialize lsdaEncoding to DW_EH_PE_omit and check for that
value to decide whether a value should be decoded.
more bugfixes are necessary. this update is up to:

Lazy VFP processing works a lot better if the functions contain a return
instruction.
replace invocations of -Ttext=.. with --section-start=.text=.. for
gnu gold-ld. it was giving very weird results when given page-rounded
values. --section-start=.text=.. works for both bfd-ld and gold.
-Add support for returning the amount of characters that would have been
written if the buffer was large enough.
-Protect code against NULL dereference.

The goal is to prevent a name collision with the expected mount/umount
function signatures, if we decide one day to allow any application
using those to work on MINIX.
At this moment the caller has to start the required services, but if we
implement that logic inside the mount/unmout function, this would allow
any application to call those function successfully.
By renaming those now, we prevent a possible ABI break in the future.

This cause in some software to assume we are linux, as this is rightly
only used there.
By default hide it behind _MINIX_SYSTEM, until we have removed traces
of it from getpeereid/[gs]etsocketopt and replaced it by the NetBSD
mechanism.

Currently we don't accept writable file mmap()s, as there is no
system in place to guarantee dirty buffers would make it back to
disk. But we can actually accept MAP_SHARED for PROT_READ mappings,
meaning the ranges aren't writable at all (and no private copy is
made as with MAP_PRIVATE), as it turns out a fairly large class of
usage.
. fail writable MAP_SHARED mappings at runtime
. reduces some minix-specific patches
. lets binutils gold build on minix without further patching

. define _MINIX_SYSTEM for all system code from minix.service.mk
. hide some system-level declarations and definitions
behind _MINIX_SYSTEM to cleanly fix host tool build problems on
Minix (such as: NONE being defined and paddr_t being used but not
declared)
. the similar definition _SYSTEM is unsuitable as it changes the
values of errno definitions

This fcntl requests all cached blocks associated with the minor device
number associated with the regular file are invalidated. If the file
is a block special, invalidate the blocks associated with that minor
device instead.
This is to be used for a test that tests unmapped file-mapped memory
ranges whose blocks are not in the cache and therefore must be fetched
from a FS.

- Fix for possible unset uid/gid in toproto
- Fix for default mtree style
- Update libelf
- Importing libexecinfo
- Resynchronize GCC, mpc, gmp, mpfr
- build.sh: Replace params with show-params.
This has been done as the make target has been renamed in the same
way, while a new target named params has been added. This new
target generates a file containing all the parameters, instead of
printing it on the console.
- Update test48 with new etc/services (Fix by Ben Gras <ben@minix3.org)
