. 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
library to the memory driver. Always put output from within TTY directly on
the console. Removed second include of driver.h from tty.c. Made tty_inrepcode
bigger. First step to move PM and FS calls that are not regular (API)
system calls out of callnr.h (renumbered them, and removed them from the
table.c files). Imported the Minix-vmd uname implementation. This provides
a more stable ABI than the current implementation. Added a bit of security
checking. Unfortunately not nearly enough to get a secure system. Fixed a
bug related to the sizes of the programs in the image (in PM patch_mem_chunks).
Implemented by changing write_map to accept a WMAP_FREE flag. In that
case, it doesn't update the datablock (creating indirect zones as
necessary) pointer, but it frees the datablock if present. Also it
frees the single and double indirect blocks if unused.
This makes the implementation of truncate_inode() simpler.
truncate_inode() now accepts a truncation length which makes
implementing truncate() and ftruncate() simple.
This also allowed implementing the F_FREESP fcntl().
