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.

Previously, VFS would reopen a character device after a driver crash
if the associated file descriptor was opened with the O_REOPEN flag.
This patch removes support for this feature. The code was complex,
full of uncovered corner cases, and hard to test. Moreover, it did not
actually hide the crash from user applications: they would get an
error code to indicate that something went wrong, and have to decide
based on the nature of the underlying device how to continue.
- remove support for O_REOPEN, and make playwave(1) reopen its device;
- remove support for the DEV_REOPEN protocol message;
- remove all code in VFS related to reopening character devices;
- no longer change VFS filp reference count and FD bitmap upon filp
invalidation; instead, make get_filp* fail all calls on invalidated
FDs except when obtained with the locktype VNODE_OPCL which is used
by close_fd only;
- remove the VFS fproc file descriptor bitmap entirely, returning to
the situation that a FD is in use if its slot points to a filp; use
FILP_CLOSED as single means of marking a filp as invalidated.

The new API now covers the entire character driver protocol, while
hiding all the message details. It should therefore be used by all
new character drivers. All existing drivers that already made use of
libchardriver have been changed to use the new API.
As one of the most important API changes, support for scatter and
gather transfers has been removed, as several key drivers already
did not support this, and it could be supported at the safecopy
level instead (for a future readv/writev).
Additional changes include:
- respond to block device open requests to avoid hanging VFS threads;
- add support for sef_cancel.

The block driver protocol and libblockdriver's bdr_ioctl hook are

I/O control requests now come with the endpoint of the user process
that initiated the ioctl(2) call. It is stored in a new BDEV_USER
field, which is an alias for BDEV_FLAGS. The contents of this field

preserved (not replaced!) by services that forward IOCTL requests,
and may be set to NONE for service-initiated IOCTL requests.

The T_DUMPCORE implementation was not only broken - it would currently
produce a coredump of the tracer process rather than the traced
process - but also deeply flawed, and fixing it would require serious
alteration of PM's internal state machine. It should be possible to
implement the same functionality in userland, and that is now the
suggested way forward. For now, also remove the (identical) utilities
using T_DUMPCORE: dumpcore(1) and gcore(1).

These days, DEV_OPEN calls to character drivers block the calling
thread until completion or failure, and thus never return SUSPEND to
the caller. The same already applied to BDEV_OPEN calls to block
drivers. It has thus become impossible for a process to enter a state
of being blocked on a device open call.
There is currently no support for restarting device open calls to
restarted character drivers. This support was present in the _DOPEN
logic, but was already no longer triggering. In the future, this case
should be handled by the thread performing the open request.

The main motivation for this change is that only Loris supports
multithreading, and Loris supports dynamic thread allocation, so the
number of supported threads can be implemented as a bit flag (i.e.,
either 1 or "at least as many as VFS has"). The ABI break obviates the
need to support file system versioning at this time, and several
other aspects are better implemented as flags as well. Other changes:
- replace peek/bpeek test upon mount with FS flag as well;
- mark libsffs as 64-bit file size capable;
- remove old (3.2.1) getdents support.

Many i2c device drivers used similar code to access registers on
the ICs they drive. This commit implements that functionality in
libi2cdriver and updates the drivers to use the library instead of
their own register access functions. The net result is 375+ fewer
lines of code and less work for people developing new drivers.
The two exceptions were cat24c256 and parts of tda19988. They access
the bus in uncommon ways. It doesn't make sense at this time to
move their read/write functions into libi2cdriver.

The VM server now manages its call masks such that all user processes
share the same call mask. As a result, an update for the call mask of
any user process will apply to all user processes. This is similar to
the privilege infrastructure employed by the kernel, and may serve as
a template for similar fine-grained restrictions in other servers.
Concretely, this patch fixes the problem of "service edit init" not
applying the given VM call mask to user processes started from RC
scripts during system startup.
In addition, this patch makes RS set a proper VM call mask for each
recovery script it spawns.

128 byte reads are much more common than 32 byte reads. The message
passing + setup/teardown for a read is much more expensive, in terms
of time, than the reading itself. A slightly bigger struct is well
worth the time savings. This reduces read times for /dev/eeprom
from 57 seconds per 4KB to 14 seconds.
Additionally, make sending the page address in the eeprom driver
and utility optional. This can save a little time when reading
within the same page and allows support for smaller devices that
don't support pages (example: chips containing EDID).

. libc: add vfs_mmap, a way for vfs to initiate mmap()s.
This is a good special case to have as vfs is a slightly
different client from regular user processes. It doesn't do it
for itself, and has the dev & inode info already so the callback
to VFS for the lookup isn't necessary. So it has different info
to have to give to VM.

though our off_t is still 32 bit now.

This commit introduces a new request type called REQ_BPEEK. It
requests minor device blocks from the FS. Analogously to REQ_PEEK,
it requests the filesystem to get the requested blocks into its
cache, without actually copying the result anywhere.
Change-Id: If1d06645b0e17553a64b3167091e9d12efeb3d6f
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.

Some (backwards-compatible) changes in mmap() call message fields
that allow for a 64-bit offset. minix_mmap() takes an off_t and
minix_mmap64() takes a u64_t. Some mmap() work in VM goes into a
separate function, using the new fields, so that that can be re-used
when files are to be mapped (future commit).

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.

This patch introduces a framebuffer to Minix. It's written for the ARM
port of Minix, but has an architectural split that separates the
hardware dependent part from the non-hardware dependent part. Futhermore,
this driver was developed using a screen that has a native resolution of
1024x600 pixels and having lack of support for obtaining EDID from the
screen. Consequently, it uses a hardcoded resolution of 1024x600.
The driver uses an interface based on the Linux ioctl API, but supports
only a very limited subset.
. the total amount of memory in the system didn't include the memory
used by the boot-time modules and some dynamic allocation by the
kernel at boot time (to map in VM). especially apparent on our
ARM board with 'only' 512MB of memory and a huge ramdisk.
. also: *add* the VM loaded module to the freelist after it has
been allocated for & mapped in instead of cutting it *out* of the
freelist! so we get a few more MB free..

. allow any number of pde's used for pagedir mapping
. allows >1024 NR_PROCS on x86, >64 on ARM
. allows NR_PROCS to be the same in both cases
. also cleanup: allocating spare PDE's is not necessary
throw that function out

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.
This makes sure the types are coherent, and right now, time_t is
defined as an long, through _BSD_TIME_T_. It previously was
hardcoded as an int, so the structure's size does not change.

* 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

. restore state depends on how saving of state was done;
also remember trap style in sig context
. actually set and restore TRACEBIT with new trap styles;
have to remove it once process enters kernel though, done
in debug trap exception handler
. introduce MF_STEP that makes arch-specific code
turn on trace bit instead of setting TRACEBIT directly,
a bit more arch-friendly and avoids keeping precious
state in per-process PSW arch-dependently
- CHOOSETRAP define makes impossible to use some common words
like send, receive and notify in any other context, for
instance as members or structures
- any reasonable compiler inlines the static inline functions so
no extra function call overhead is introduced by this change
- this gets us back to the situation before the SYSCALL/SYSENTER
change. It is not perfect, but it used to work and still does.
upgrade to NetBSD CVS release from 2012/10/17 12:00:00 UTC
Makefiles updates to imporve portability
Made sure to be consistent in the usage of braces/parenthesis at
least on a per file basis. For variables, it is recommended to
continue to use braces.
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"
Bumping libc files for unsupported architectures, to simplify merging.
A bunch of small fixes:
* in libutil update
* the macro in endian.h
* some undefined types due to clear separation from host.
* Fix a warning for cdbr.c
Some modification which were required for the new build system:
* inclusion path for const.h in sconst, still hacky
* Removed default malloc.c which conflicts on some occasions.
. Check if we have the right number of boot modules
. Check if the ELF parsing of VM actually succeeded
Both these are root causes of less-than-obvious other
errors/asserts a little further down the line; uncovered
while experimenting with booting by iPXE, specifically
(a) iPXE having a 8-multiboot-modules limit and
(b) trying to boot a gzipped VM.
Add primary cache management feature to libminixfs as mfs and ext2
currently do separately, remove cache code from mfs and ext2, and make
them use the libminixfs interface. This makes all fields of the buf
struct private to libminixfs and FS clients aren't supposed to access
them at all. Only the opaque 'void *data' field (the FS block contents,
used to be called bp) is to be accessed by the FS client.
The main purpose is to implement the interface to the 2ndary vm cache
just once, get rid of some code duplication, and add a little
abstraction to reduce the code inertia of the whole caching business.
Some minor sanity checking and prohibition done by mfs in this code
as removed from the generic primary cache code as a result:
- checking all inodes are not in use when allocating/resizing
the cache
- checking readonly filesystems aren't written to
- checking the superblock isn't written to on mounted filesystems
The minixfslib code relies on fs_blockstats() in the client filesystem to
return some FS usage information.
Introduce explicit abstractions for different mapping types,
handling the instantiation, forking, pagefaults and freeing of
anonymous memory, direct physical mappings, shared memory and
physically contiguous anonymous memory as separate types, making
region.c more generic.
Also some other genericification like merging the 3 munmap cases
into one.
COW and SMAP safemap code is still implicit in region.c.
. 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
