b5e3e6d18c Two 'dynamic driver' features in FS:
.  When drivers disappear that have pending select()s, wake up
   those user processes with EAGAIN so that they can retry their
   select() and won't hang forever on it.
.  When drivers re-appear and are mapped into the dmap, run through
   the list of mounted filesystems and re-dev_open() every one (for
   partition tables and such). This can't happen before the driver
   has exec()ced itself, so processes that have fork()ed but not
   exec()ced yet are marked as DMAP_BABY in the dmap table if they
   are dmapped before they are execced. If that happens, the above
   procedure happens after the exec(). If the exec() happens before
   the dmapping, it (the dev_open()ing) happens right away.

2eca6f9374 If processes are blocked on device drivers (returning SUSPEND),
unblock the processes when the device drivers die.

86ed54ee94 FS:
. unmap device drivers from dmap when PM signals they are dead
	. new null-io function (no_dev_io) to fill in for io functions
	  of unmapped drivers
	. driver (process number) of unmapped drivers is NONE instead of
	  0 (a valid process number)

IS:
	. print mutable flag of dmap table too

FS changes require sync() to be done 'manually' (currently by
reboot/shutdown) at shutdown time; could be caught by SIGTERM in
the future.

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.

e561081545 Miscellaneous clean ups and fixes to the kernel.
Support for FLOPPY in boot image. (Set controller=fd at boot monitor.)
Moved major device numbers to <minix/dmap.h> (maybe rename to dev.h?)

6e8f484b3b . added cd-probe logic; tries to find the right root filesystem
if the boot monitor parameter is set. it also sets a boot monitor
  parameter (by talking to the PM) so userland knows it.
. ramdisk copy code made slightly smarter
. various select() prettifications (work in progress)

More space for synctree.

9664ba0c4f Started select() implementation.
Added interface to select() for pipes (also named pipes), and select()
stubs for regular files.

Added timer library in FS that select() is the first customer of.


This is unfinished, but committed anyway to get a new release out to
Al and testers.

e44e9ad261 small compile fixes; initial select() stubs; release.sh script doesn't
need /tmp any more since 16MB root device; increase to 3.0.5 to make new
CD with working FXP driver. (not tagged 3.0.5 yet as at driver bios-copy
workaround hasn't been done.)

6d23f072f3 Cleaned up src/lib/utils library. Renamed server_ functions to more logical
names. All system processes can now either use panic() or report() from
libutils, or redefine their own function. Assertions are done via the standard
<assert.h> functionality.

322ec9ef8b Moved stime, time, times POSIX calls from FS to PM. Removed child time
accounting from kernel (now in PM).  Large amount of files in this commit
is due to system time problems during development.
