The getsysinfo(2), getrusage(2), and svrctl(2) calls used the same
call number to different services. Since we want to give each service
its own call number ranges, this is no longer tenable. This patch
introduces per-service call numbers for these calls.
Note that the remainder of the COMMON_ range is left intact, as these
the remaining requests in it are processed by SEF and thus server-
agnostic. The range should really be prefixed with SEF_ now.

- move system calls for use by services from libminlib into libsys;
- move srv_fork(2) and srv_kill(2) from RS and into libsys;
- replace getprocnr(2) with sef_self(3);
- rename previous getnprocnr(2) to getprocnr(2);
- clean up getepinfo(2);
- change all libsys calls that used _syscall to use _taskcall, so as
to avoid going through errno to pass errors; this is already how
most calls work anyway, and many of the calls previously using
_syscall were already assumed to return the actual error;
- initialize request messages to zero, for future compatibility
(note that this does not include PCI calls, which are in need of a
much bigger overhaul, nor kernel calls);
- clean up more of dead DS code as a side effect.

This commit separates the low-level keyboard driver from TTY, putting
it in a separate driver (PCKBD). The commit also separates management
of raw input devices from TTY, and puts it in a separate server
(INPUT). All keyboard and mouse input from hardware is sent by drivers
to the INPUT server, which either sends it to a process that has
opened a raw input device, or otherwise forwards it to TTY for
standard processing.
Design by Dirk Vogt. Prototype by Uli Kastlunger.
Additional changes made to the prototype:
- the event communication is now based on USB HID codes; all input
drivers have to use USB codes to describe events;
- all TTY keymaps have been converted to USB format, with the effect
that a single keymap covers all keys; there is no (static) escaped
keymap anymore;
- further keymap tweaks now allow remapping of literally all keys;
- input device renumbering and protocol rewrite;
- INPUT server rewrite, with added support for cancel and select;
- PCKBD reimplementation, including PC/AT-to-USB translation;
- support for manipulating keyboard LEDs has been added;
- keyboard and mouse multiplexer devices have been added to INPUT,
primarily so that an X server need only open two devices;
- a new "libinputdriver" library abstracts away protocol details from
input drivers, and should be used by all future input drivers;
- both INPUT and PCKBD can be restarted;
- TTY is now scheduled by KERNEL, so that it won't be punished for
running a lot; without this, simply running "yes" on the console
kills the system;
- the KIOCBELL IOCTL has been moved to /dev/console;
- support for the SCANCODES termios setting has been removed;
- obsolete keymap compression has been removed;
- the obsolete Olivetti M24 keymap has been removed.

The set of processes to which a SIGKMESS signal is sent whenever new
diagnostics messages are added to the kernel's message buffer, is now
no longer hardcoded. Instead, processes can (un)register themselves
to receive such notifications, by means of sys_diagctl().

Not all services involved in block I/O go through VM to access the
blocks they need. As a result, the blocks in VM may become stale,
possibly causing corruption when the stale copy is restored by a
service that does go through VM later on. This patch restores support
for forgetting cached blocks that belong to a particular device, and
makes the relevant file systems use this functionality 1) when
requested by VFS through REQ_FLUSH, and 2) upon unmount.

* Removed startup code patches in lib/csu regarding kernel to userland
ABI.
* Aligned stack layout on NetBSD stack layout.
* Generate valid stack pointers instead of offsets by taking into account
_minix_kerninfo->kinfo->user_sp.
* Refactored stack generation, by moving part of execve in two
functions {minix_stack_params(), minix_stack_fill()} and using them
in execve(), rs and vm.
* Changed load offset of rtld (ld.so) to:
execi.args.stack_high - execi.args.stack_size - 0xa00000
which is 10MB below the main executable stack.

On the AM335X, writes to the padconf registers must be done in privileged
mode. To allow userspace drivers to dynamically change the padconf at
runtime, a kernel call has been added.

. add receive hooks in the kernel to print asynchronously
delivered messages
. do not rely on MF_REPLY_PEND to decide between calls and errors,
as that isn't reliable for asynchronous messages; try both instead
. add _sendcall() that extract-mfield.sh can then reliably recognize
the fields for messages that are sent with just send()
. add DEBUG_DUMPIPC_NAMES to restrict printed messages to
from/to given process names

Primary purpose of change: to support the mmap implementation, VM must
know both (a) about some block metadata for FS cache blocks, i.e.
inode numbers and inode offsets where applicable; and (b) know about
*all* cache blocks, i.e. also of the FS primary caches and not just
the blocks that spill into the secondary one. This changes the
interface and VM data structures.
This change is only for the interface (libminixfs) and VM data
structures; the filesystem code is unmodified, so although the
secondary cache will be used as normal, blocks will not be annotated
with inode information until the FS is modified to provide this
information. Until it is modified, mmap of files will fail gracefully
on such filesystems.
This is indicated to VFS/VM by returning ENOSYS for REQ_PEEK.

This commit removes the secondary cache code implementation from
VM and its usage from libminixfs. It is to be replaced by a new
implementation.

This also adds the sys_settime() kernel call which allows for the adjusting
of the clock named realtime in the kernel. The existing sys_stime()
function is still needed for a separate job (setting the boottime). The
boottime is set in the readclock driver. The sys_settime() interface is
meant to be flexible and will support both clock_settime() and adjtime()
when adjtime() is implemented later.
settimeofday() was adjusted to use the clock_settime() interface.
One side note discovered during testing: uptime(1) (part of the last(1)),
uses wtmp to determine boottime (not Minix's times(2)). This leads `uptime`
to report odd results when you set the time to a time prior to boottime.
This isn't a new bug introduced by my changes. It's been there for a while.
In order to make it more clear that ticks should be used for timers
and realtime should be used for timestamps / displaying the date/time,
getuptime() was renamed to getticks() and getuptime2() was renamed to
getuptime().
Servers, drivers, libraries, tests, etc that use getuptime()/getuptime2()
have been updated. In instances where a realtime was calculated, the
calculation was changed to use realtime.
System calls clock_getres() and clock_gettime() were added to PM/libc.
Make the frclock functions similar to the tsc utility functions. This
way, we can call frclock functions from the framebuffer driver which
will use frclock on ARM and tsc on X86.
Also, frclock_64_to_micros computed seconds, not microseconds

The Cycle CouNTer on ARM cannot be used reliably as it wraps around
rather quickly and can be altered by user space (on Minix). Furthermore,
it's buggy when wrapping and is not implemented at all on the Linaro
Beagleboard emulator.
This patch programs GPTIMER10 as a free running clock at 1.625 MHz (it
doesn't generate interrupts). It's memory mapped into every process,
which enables libsys to provide micro_delay().

Due to the ABI we are using we have to use the earm architecture
moniker for the build system to behave correctly. This involves
then some headers to move around.
There is also a few related Makefile updates as well as minor
source code corrections.
* Updating common/lib
* Updating lib/csu
* Updating lib/libc
* Updating libexec/ld.elf_so
* Corrected test on __minix in featuretest to actually follow the
meaning of the comment.
* Cleaned up _REENTRANT-related defintions.
* Disabled -D_REENTRANT for libfetch
* Removing some unneeded __NBSD_LIBC defines and tests
Change-Id: Ic1394baef74d11b9f86b312f5ff4bbc3cbf72ce2
The tested targets are the followgin ones:
* tools
* distribution
* sets
* release
The remaining NetBSD targets have not been disabled nor tested
*at all*. Try them at your own risk, they may reboot the earth.
For all compliant Makefiles, objects and generated files are put in
MAKEOBJDIR, which means you can now keep objects between two branch
switching. Same for DESTDIR, please refer to build.sh options.
Regarding new or modifications of Makefiles a few things:
* Read share/mk/bsd.README
* If you add a subdirectory, add a Makefile in it, and have it called
by the parent through the SUBDIR variable.
* Do not add arbitrary inclusion which crosses to another branch of
the hierarchy; If you can't do without it, put a comment on why.
If possible, do not use inclusion at all.
* Use as much as possible the infrastructure, it is here to make
life easier, do not fight it.
Sets and package are now used to track files.
We have one set called "minix", composed of one package called "minix-sys"
. add cpufeature detection of both
. use it for both ipc and kernelcall traps, using a register
for call number
. SYSENTER/SYSCALL does not save any context, therefore userland
has to save it
. to accomodate multiple kernel entry/exit types, the entry
type is recorded in the process struct. hitherto all types
were interrupt (soft int, exception, hard int); now SYSENTER/SYSCALL
is new, with the difference that context is not fully restored
from proc struct when running the process again. this can't be
done as some information is missing.
. complication: cases in which the kernel has to fully change
process context (i.e. sigreturn). in that case the exit type
is changed from SYSENTER/SYSEXIT to soft-int (i.e. iret) and
context is fully restored from the proc struct. this does mean
the PC and SP must change, as the sysenter/sysexit userland code
will otherwise try to restore its own context. this is true in the
sigreturn case.
. override all usage by setting libc_ipc=1
