39dfb2bc55 Don't build ext2 ramdisk for cross compilation
. as mkfs.mfs is now cross compilable, we can remove the ext2 ramdisk
  special case for cross compilation.

f93afa00e9 Remove MINIXSRCDIR and use NETBSDSRCDIR
NETBSDSRCDIR is used all over the place anyway, and this reduces
our diff with NetBSD a little.

2fe8fb192f Full switch to clang/ELF. Drop ack. Simplify.
There is important information about booting non-ack images in
docs/UPDATING. ack/aout-format images can't be built any more, and
booting clang/ELF-format ones is a little different. Updating to the
new boot monitor is recommended.

Changes in this commit:

	. drop boot monitor -> allowing dropping ack support
	. facility to copy ELF boot files to /boot so that old boot monitor
	  can still boot fairly easily, see UPDATING
	. no more ack-format libraries -> single-case libraries
	. some cleanup of OBJECT_FMT, COMPILER_TYPE, etc cases
	. drop several ack toolchain commands, but not all support
	  commands (e.g. aal is gone but acksize is not yet).
	. a few libc files moved to netbsd libc dir
	. new /bin/date as minix date used code in libc/
	. test compile fix
	. harmonize includes
	. /usr/lib is no longer special: without ack, /usr/lib plays no
	  kind of special bootstrapping role any more and bootstrapping
	  is done exclusively through packages, so releases depend even
	  less on the state of the machine making them now.
	. rename nbsd_lib* to lib*
	. reduce mtree

b4d909d415 Split block/character protocols and libdriver
This patch separates the character and block driver communication
protocols. The old character protocol remains the same, but a new
block protocol is introduced. The libdriver library is replaced by
two new libraries: libchardriver and libblockdriver. Their exposed
API, and drivers that use them, have been updated accordingly.
Together, libbdev and libblockdriver now completely abstract away
the message format used by the block protocol. As the memory driver
is both a character and a block device driver, it now implements its
own message loop.

The most important semantic change made to the block protocol is that
it is no longer possible to return both partial results and an error
for a single transfer. This simplifies the interaction between the
caller and the driver, as the I/O vector no longer needs to be copied
back. Also, drivers are now no longer supposed to decide based on the
layout of the I/O vector when a transfer should be cut short. Put
simply, transfers are now supposed to either succeed completely, or
result in an error.

After this patch, the state of the various pieces is as follows:
- block protocol: stable
- libbdev API: stable for synchronous communication
- libblockdriver API: needs slight revision (the drvlib/partition API
  in particular; the threading API will also change shortly)
- character protocol: needs cleanup
- libchardriver API: needs cleanup accordingly
- driver restarts: largely unsupported until endpoint changes are
  reintroduced

As a side effect, this patch eliminates several bugs, hacks, and gcc
-Wall and -W warnings all over the place. It probably introduces a
few new ones, too.

Update warning: this patch changes the protocol between MFS and disk
drivers, so in order to use old/new images, the MFS from the ramdisk
must be used to mount all file systems.

b01aff70d2 use servers/inet/mq.[ch] to queue messages using mq_queue() in
libdriver.  at_wini now queues messages it can't handle it receives when
waiting for an interrupt. this way it can do receive(ANY) and timeouts
should be working again (were broken for VFS, as with the advent of VFS,
at_wini could get requests from a filesystem while it was waiting for an
interrupt - as a hack, the receive() was changed to receive(HARDWARE)).

Added mq.c to libdriver, and made libdriver an actual library that
drivers link with -L../libdriver -ldriver. (So adding files, if
necessary, is easier next time.)

e9aabcf2f8 Disabled building rescue driver (no longer needed). Moved allocmem from
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).

74711a3b14 Check if kernel calls is allowed (from process' call mask) added. Not yet
enforced. If a call is denied, this will be kprinted. Please report any such
errors, so that I can adjust the mask before returning errors instead of
warnings.

Wrote CMOS driver. All CMOS code from FS has been removed. Currently the
driver only supports get time calls. Set time is left out as an exercise
for the book readers ... startup scripts were updated because the CMOS driver
is needed early on. (IS got same treatment.) Don't forget to run MAKEDEV cmos
in /dev/, otherwise the driver cannot be loaded.
