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

0fb2f83da9 drop from segments physcopy/vircopy invocations
. sys_vircopy always uses D for both src and dst
	. sys_physcopy uses PHYS_SEG if and only if corresponding
	  endpoint is NONE, so we can derive the mode (PHYS_SEG or D)
	  from the endpoint arg in the kernel, dropping the seg args
	. fields in msg still filled in for backwards compatability,
	  using same NONE-logic in the library

769af57274 further libexec generalization
. new mode for sys_memset: include process so memset can be
	  done in physical or virtual address space.
	. add a mode to mmap() that lets a process allocate uninitialized
	  memory.
	. this allows an exec()er (RS, VFS, etc.) to request uninitialized
	  memory from VM and selectively clear the ranges that don't come
	  from a file, leaving no uninitialized memory left for the process
	  to see.
	. use callbacks for clearing the process, clearing memory in the
	  process, and copying into the process; so that the libexec code
	  can be used from rs, vfs, and in the future, kernel (to load vm)
	  and vm (to load boot-time processes)

040362e379 exec() cleanup, generalization, improvement
. make exec() callers (i.e. vfs and rs) determine the
	  memory layout by explicitly reserving regions using
	  mmap() calls on behalf of the exec()ing process,
	  i.e. handling all of the exec logic, thereby eliminating
	  all special exec() knowledge from VM.
	. the new procedure is: clear the exec()ing process
	  first, then call third-party mmap()s to reserve memory, then
	  copy the executable file section contents in, all using callbacks
	  tailored to the caller's way of starting an executable
	. i.e. no more explicit EXEC_NEWMEM-style calls in PM or VM
	  as with rigid 2-section arguments
	. this naturally allows generalizing exec() by simply loading
	  all ELF sections
	. drop/merge of lots of duplicate exec() code into libexec
	. not copying the code sections to vfs and into the executable
	  again is a measurable performance improvement (about 3.3% faster
	  for 'make' in src/servers/)

41b869d4d6 drop aout support
justification: soon we won't be able to execute sep I&D aouts at
all (because of the vanishing segments), which was the default mode
to generate them so most binaries will be sep I&D.

this makes the vfs/rs exec() unification work simpler.

after unification, common I&D aout could be added back quite simply.

53002f6f6c recognize and execute dynamically linked executables
. generalize libexec slightly to get some more necessary information
	  from ELF files, e.g. the interpreter
	. execute dynamically linked executables when exec()ed by VFS
	. switch to netbsd variant of elf32.h exclusively, solves some
	  conflicting headers

0bd011affd PM: extend srv_fork to set a specific UID
Currently, all servers and drivers run as root as they are forks of
RS. srv_fork now tells PM with which credentials to run the resulting
fork. Subsequently, PM lets VFS now as well.

This patch also fixes the following bugs:
 - RS doesn't initialize the setugid variable during exec, causing the
   servers and drivers to run setuid rendering the srv_fork extension
   useless.
 - PM erroneously tells VFS to run processes setuid. This doesn't
   actually lead to setuid processes as VFS sets {r,e}uid and {r,e}gid
   properly before checking PM's approval.

6f374faca5 Add "expected size" parameter to getsysinfo()
This patch provides basic protection against damage resulting from
differently compiled servers blindly copying tables to one another.
In every getsysinfo() call, the caller is provided with the expected
size of the requested data structure. The callee fails the call if
the expected size does not match the data structure's actual size.

02081e4b62 rename mmap() and munmap()
. it's a good extra interface to have but doesn't
	  meet standardised functionality
	. applications (in pkgsrc) find it and expect
	  full functionality the minix mmap doesn't offter
	. on the whole probably better to hide these functions
	  (mmap and friends) until they are grown up; the base system
	  can use the new minix_* names

ef0a265086 New stat structure.
* VFS and installed MFSes must be in sync before and after this change *

Use struct stat from NetBSD. It requires adding new STAT, FSTAT and LSTAT
syscalls. Libc modification is both backward and forward compatible.

Also new struct stat uses modern field sizes to avoid ABI
incompatibility, when we update uid_t, gid_t and company.
Exceptions are ino_t and off_t in old libc (though paddings added).

9639af49d2 RS: fix IPC privilege computation bug
Take into account the ALL and ALL_SYS cases when constructing proper
symmetrical IPC send masks. Fix system.conf accordingly, to keep
userland processes from sending to several non-interface servers and
drivers. Also fix IS's F4 formatting.

7bef45ad3b system.conf: base ipc permissions on process names rather than labels
From now on, the "ipc" directive in system.conf refers to process names
instead of labels, similar to the "control" directive. The old, more
fine-grained approach is deemed unnecessary and cumbersome at this time.

As side effects, this patch unbreaks late IPC permission computation as
well as the filter driver.

06b6e5624a SMP - Changed prototype of sys_schedule()
- sys_schedule can change only selected values, -1 means that the
  current value should be kept unchanged. For instance we mostly want
  to change the scheduling quantum and priority but we want to keep
  the process at the current cpu

- RS can hand off its processes to scheduler

- service can read the destination cpu from system.conf

- RS can pass the information farther
