447b988154 exec now uses phys_zero system call to zero bss segments (instead of 
using phys_copy to copy zeroes there for every kb), which is a big
optimisation in some cases

fixed a bug that was introduced when function keys became notifies

c977bd8709 Added args to lock() and unlock() to tell them apart, for use 
when lock timing is enabled in minix/config.h.

Added phys_zero() routine to klib386.s that zeroes a range of memory, and
added corresponding system call.

b4335679cb Added sys_physzero library call for corresponding system call; modified 
system-printf() so it returns number of characters printed (for use in
smart formatting)

5a43b84e2d Fix for 'the kermit problem' (keyrepeats happening before the keyrepeat 
timeout). A fix is to treat the alarm and interrupt cases differently and
only call the interrupt handler when an actual interrupt has been seen. No
apparent adverse effects.

0165662cd9 Replaced flagalrm() timers with another technique to check for timeouts. 
This allowed removing the p_flagarlm timer from the kernel's process table.
Furthermore, I merged p_syncalrm and p_signalrm into p_alarm_timer to save
even more space. Note that processes can no longer have both a signal and
synchronous alarm timer outstanding as of now.

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.

cd72f80639 Disabled clearing screen in tty driver, started console printing after an 
initial 1-line scroll at last line. If clearing screen in trailer of boot
monitor is disabled, all previous boot monitor and console messages are
preserved on rebooting.

All that's needed now is a scrollback buffer to see all old messages..
(Even from the boot monitor, bios, previous boots...)

5927788cdd Added 'bootdelay' feature in boot monitor, it pauses a given number of ms 
so the list of programs in the image and their sizes can be seen before the
kernel starts filling the screen.

Added some formatting fixes in installboot and boot monitor itself,
some of the segments were larger than the formatting allowed.

b421423c77 SENDREC now always has flag FRESH_ANSWER to prevent pending notifications

07d582872f Fixed a bug in PM: sending of reply messages didn't check if destination 
process is still alive. This caused a panic in some situations, e.g., when
all processes are killed on a shutdown.

c2be104821 Improved NOTIFY system: fixed a minor error, ignore pending notifications 
on SENDREC system calls. To be done: resource (buffer pool) management;
make it structurally impossible to run out of buffers.

77c3213948 Optimized scheduling code. Old code is still available withing DEAD_CODE 
and NEW_SCHED_Q definitions. Some minor problems are being traced at the
moment. This commit is meant to backup my files.

dcffa17db2 this test breaks on the new pre-i/o i/o buffer check. it wants to read 
more than its buffer allowed, so it is reasonable that it breaks. reducing
read request size 'fixes' it.

6a3519f3a8 Added 2 checks to mapping function - one for overflow (virtual address + 
size wraparound), one to see if the size fits in the designated segment.

It seems this check wasn't done. This came to light when trying to pre-check
the users buffer for read() and write() in using the vectored virtual
copy system call in servers/fs/read.c.

ccd17ecfed New NOTIFY system call! Queued at kernel. Duplicate messages (with same source 
and type) are overwritten with newer flags/ arguments. The interface from
within the kernel is lock_notify(). User processes can make a system call with
notify(). NOTIFY fully replaces the old notification mechanism.

64ecaca24b Changed something in default no. of inodes in mkfs (I run out of inodes 
often with the defaults).

Made setup script not make root filesystem with 1kB filesystem blocks,
as that restriction is out of the boot monitor now.

f8bd2691ec Removed root filesystem blocksize restriction by reducing boot monitor 
stack size from 16kB to 8kB. No apparent adverse affects.

cff515edd8 made time use times() system call to get higher resolution (1/60s clock 
ticks instead of 1s) for real time measurement.

307c825515 New NOTIFY trap (IPC call) to send queued notification messages. 
The call works. Permission check, restriction of outstanding notifications
to be added. Low level code to make it work from within interrupt handlers
will be added as well.
