ca80161f40 . Junk-filling gap+stack code on exec() if enabled (not enabled now)
. Allow 'boot monitor' variable changes and additions by svrctl call

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)

f1153541c7 Fixed bug in PM that caused update program not to be scheduled, so that
sync was not periodically run. Chain of timers was accidentially broken.

Kernel sends SIGKSTOP signal on shutdown. FS calls sync to clean up.

f2e16763e7 Removed PM signon for INET. Now daemonized in /usr/etc/rc.

eba45510a9 New alarm(2) timers mechanism.
Kernel no longer keeps track of user alarms on behalf of the PM.
Instead, the PM maintains its own list of watchdog timers, and
uses one synchronous alarm (at the kernel) to get notifications
for expired user timers.

42050e39f8 kernel and servers send diagnostic messages to IS; IS sends them to TTY
and the new log driver if enabled.

new usyslogd is started from /usr/etc/rc. New device created by
MAKEDEV.sh. /var/log created by etc/mtree/minix.tree (on root for
now). Made select() slightly more generic, with less code duplication.

904cf1f84d A "fix" for bug no. 2 is to check if the process slot has disappeared.
Not a really good solution (as it might not catch situations in which this
is caused by another bug), but the forrest of checks necessary might be worse
than this quick fix - because when looking for the cause, I found some other
cases in which the PM would panic as well. See info in bug 2 for details.

Another fix is to delay notification of PM by SYSTASK of signals delivered
internally until after the reply (e.g. of exec()), because the reply would
be messed up otherwise (receiving the notify instead of reply). This caused
SIGTRAP not to be delivered properly with traced processes.

ec24a0798c Updated function key mapping because of possible changes to NOTIFY.
The TTY driver now only notifies the IS server about function key event,
but does not tell which keys are pressed. The IS servers queries the TTY
driver to find out about this.

c9c6983cc1 Fixed a few quirks in misc.c
. MAX used where it should've been MIN
  . buffer byte too short
  . inobvious use of & with && without parantheses
  . funny length checking

45ddea1cdd Fixed bug that caused the PM to brutalize the contents of the 'memory'
variable. Parsing worked, but future requests for the variable (such as
by the sysenv command) returned truncated data. This caused the system
(e.g. setup script) to think the amount of memory was tiny, and caused
the enabling of swapspace, while it is unnecessary.

d844d2a547 Fixed nasty bug that would cause FS to loop forever in rw_scattered (while
syncing, for instance) if blocks are unwritable. This could happen if:

  . write goes beyond device boundary to a block device
  . write is done for a complete block or more; thus the
    block is not retrieved first (at which point it would be noticed
    it doesn't exist), but the buffer is simply allocated
  . at write time, the device i/o doesn't succeed, but rw_scattered
    doesn't understand this and loops forever trying to get the block
    written.

Currently, if no blocks can be written, the loop aborts, leaving all
buffers intact but potentially dirty. When invalidate() is called on the
device, the buffers will disappear (even if dirty). Same story for if
the buffer is removed due to rmed from lru chain. There's not much we
can do about this, however - we can't keep these blocks around, forever
occupying a buffer in the buffer cache.

The second part of the solution is not to let unwritable buffers be
created in the first place. How to do this, however, without doing a
wasteful read first?

It looks like this code was in 2.0.4 too.

5954c7e303 Part of fs timers library, forgot to add this in previous commit. 2005-06-17 13:49:56 +00:00
Ben Gras
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.

c2cd510adf Removed debug dumps from the PM and FS servers. The dumps are now done by the
IS servers, which obtains a copy of the data through the getsysinfo() system
call. CTRL-F1 now is a special TTY key to shows function key mappings.
2005-06-07 14:43:35 +00:00

2f74381dcc Fixed 'ps' utility: now get process table addresses with getsysinfo() calls.
To be done: get copies of process tables instead of using /dev/(k)mem.

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.)

f2a85e58d9 Various updates.
* Removed some variants of the SYS_GETINFO calls from the kernel;
  replaced them with new PM and utils libary functionality. Fixed
  bugs in utils library that used old get_kenv() variant.
* Implemented a buffer in the kernel to gather random data.
  Memory driver periodically checks this for /dev/random.
  A better random algorithm can now be implemented in the driver.
  Removed SYS_RANDOM; the SYS_GETINFO call is used instead.
* Remove SYS_KMALLOC from the kernel. Memory allocation can now
  be done at the process manager with new 'other' library functions.
