ae75f9d4e5 Removal of the executable flag from files that cannot be executed
- 755 -> 644
2009-11-09 10:26:00 +00:00

b423d7b477 Merge of David's ptrace branch. Summary:
o Support for ptrace T_ATTACH/T_DETACH and T_SYSCALL
o PM signal handling logic should now work properly, even with debuggers
  being present
o Asynchronous PM/VFS protocol, full IPC support for senda(), and
  AMF_NOREPLY senda() flag

DETAILS

Process stop and delay call handling of PM:
o Added sys_runctl() kernel call with sys_stop() and sys_resume()
  aliases, for PM to stop and resume a process
o Added exception for sending/syscall-traced processes to sys_runctl(),
  and matching SIGKREADY pseudo-signal to PM
o Fixed PM signal logic to deal with requests from a process after
  stopping it (so-called "delay calls"), using the SIGKREADY facility
o Fixed various PM panics due to race conditions with delay calls versus
  VFS calls
o Removed special PRIO_STOP priority value
o Added SYS_LOCK RTS kernel flag, to stop an individual process from
  running while modifying its process structure

Signal and debugger handling in PM:
o Fixed debugger signals being dropped if a second signal arrives when
  the debugger has not retrieved the first one
o Fixed debugger signals being sent to the debugger more than once
o Fixed debugger signals unpausing process in VFS; removed PM_UNPAUSE_TR
  protocol message
o Detached debugger signals from general signal logic and from being
  blocked on VFS calls, meaning that even VFS can now be traced
o Fixed debugger being unable to receive more than one pending signal in
  one process stop
o Fixed signal delivery being delayed needlessly when multiple signals
  are pending
o Fixed wait test for tracer, which was returning for children that were
  not waited for
o Removed second parallel pending call from PM to VFS for any process
o Fixed process becoming runnable between exec() and debugger trap
o Added support for notifying the debugger before the parent when a
  debugged child exits
o Fixed debugger death causing child to remain stopped forever
o Fixed consistently incorrect use of _NSIG

Extensions to ptrace():
o Added T_ATTACH and T_DETACH ptrace request, to attach and detach a
  debugger to and from a process
o Added T_SYSCALL ptrace request, to trace system calls
o Added T_SETOPT ptrace request, to set trace options
o Added TO_TRACEFORK trace option, to attach automatically to children
  of a traced process
o Added TO_ALTEXEC trace option, to send SIGSTOP instead of SIGTRAP upon
  a successful exec() of the tracee
o Extended T_GETUSER ptrace support to allow retrieving a process's priv
  structure
o Removed T_STOP ptrace request again, as it does not help implementing
  debuggers properly
o Added MINIX3-specific ptrace test (test42)
o Added proper manual page for ptrace(2)

Asynchronous PM/VFS interface:
o Fixed asynchronous messages not being checked when receive() is called
  with an endpoint other than ANY
o Added AMF_NOREPLY senda() flag, preventing such messages from
  satisfying the receive part of a sendrec()
o Added asynsend3() that takes optional flags; asynsend() is now a
  #define passing in 0 as third parameter
o Made PM/VFS protocol asynchronous; reintroduced tell_fs()
o Made PM_BASE request/reply number range unique
o Hacked in a horrible temporary workaround into RS to deal with newly
  revealed RS-PM-VFS race condition triangle until VFS is asynchronous

System signal handling:
o Fixed shutdown logic of device drivers; removed old SIGKSTOP signal
o Removed is-superuser check from PM's do_procstat() (aka getsigset())
o Added sigset macros to allow system processes to deal with the full
  signal set, rather than just the POSIX subset

Miscellaneous PM fixes:
o Split do_getset into do_get and do_set, merging common code and making
  structure clearer
o Fixed setpriority() being able to put to sleep processes using an
  invalid parameter, or revive zombie processes
o Made find_proc() global; removed obsolete proc_from_pid()
o Cleanup here and there

Also included:
o Fixed false-positive boot order kernel warning
o Removed last traces of old NOTIFY_FROM code

THINGS OF POSSIBLE INTEREST

o It should now be possible to run PM at any priority, even lower than
  user processes
o No assumptions are made about communication speed between PM and VFS,
  although communication must be FIFO
o A debugger will now receive incoming debuggee signals at kill time
  only; the process may not yet be fully stopped
o A first step has been made towards making the SYSTEM task preemptible

b900311656 endpoint_t in syslib
- headers use the endpoint_t in syslib.h and the implmentation was using int
  instead. Both uses endpoint_t now

- every variable named like proc, proc_nr or proc_nr_e of type endpoint_t has
  name proc_ep now

- endpoint_t defined as u32_t not int

9647fbc94e moved type and constants for random data to include file;
added consistency check in random; added source of randomness
internal to random using timing; only retrieve random bins that are full.

3cc092ff06 . new kernel call sysctl for generic unprivileged system operations;
now used for printing diagnostic messages through the kernel message
   buffer. this lets processes print diagnostics without sending messages
   to tty and log directly, simplifying the message protocol a lot and
   reducing difficulties with deadlocks and other situations in which
   diagnostics are blackholed (e.g. grants don't work). this makes
   DIAGNOSTICS(_S), ASYN_DIAGNOSTICS and DIAG_REPL obsolete, although tty
   and log still accept the codes for 'old' binaries. This also simplifies
   diagnostics in several servers and drivers - only tty needs its own
   kputc() now.
 . simplifications in vfs, and some effort to get the vnode references
   right (consistent) even during shutdown. m_mounted_on is now NULL
   for root filesystems (!) (the original and new root), a less awkward
   special case than 'm_mounted_on == m_root_node'. root now has exactly
   one reference, to root, if no files are open, just like all other
   filesystems. m_driver_e is unused.

calibrated busywait (where necessary).

6d50591226 . let kernel use read_tsc() from sysutil library
. read_tsc() in sysutil library saves edx and eax now
 . added read_tsc_64() by Antonio Mancina to load tsc into
   a 64-bit data type directly
 . deleted read_tsc.h in favour of a prototype in <minix/syslib.h>

9df1183b94 . removed const from putenv() for g++
. added safecopies.c:
  these are library functions to maintain grant tables in own address space
. sys_safecopy.c:
  interfaces to kernel calls to perform safe copy functions in from or to
  foreign process
. changes in i/o fields (type merged with request) reflected in
  library functions (sys_out.c, sys_vinb.c, sys_vinl.c, sys_vinw.c,
  sys_voutb.c, sys_voutl.c, sys_voutw.c)
. type merged with request in sys_sdevio, also now accepts offset which
  is used when a grant is specified (the _DIO_SAFE subtype)
. system printf() function changed to send DIAGNOSTICS_S messages, which
  specify a grant id instead of a direct address for the buffer to be
  printed; tty and log can then safecopy the buffer

ea75918df1 printf() by kernel and servers now send messages to an array of processes,
OUTPUT_PROCS_ARRAY in <minix/config.h>, in that order, terminated by NONE.
log no longer forwards messages to tty itself. This leads to less funny
loops and more robust debug-message handling. Also the list of
processes receiving messages can easily be changed around or disabled by
editing the array (e.g. disable it by changing the array to { NONE }.).

c79574aba4 A new panic that makes processes exit with PM knowing about it, instead
of sys_exit, so that PM functions (e.g. findproc) keep working properly,
and RS finds out about process deaths.

b69ca94efb Fixed 'bug' in log driver that caused kernel messages not to be displayed.
This was caused by a change in the shared driver code. Not log's fault.

Renamed #definitions of driver process numbers, e.g., TTY now is TTY_PROC_NR.
All known (special) processes now have consistent naming scheme. Kernel tasks
don't follow this scheme.
