that passes signal map along. This mechanisms is also used for nonuser signals
like SIGKMESS, SIGKSTOP, SIGKSIG.
Revised comments of many system call handlers. Renamed setpriority to nice.
New configuration header file to include/ exclude functionality.
Extracted privileged features from struct proc and create new struct priv.
Renamed various system calls for readability.
Removed stop sequence when MINIX is shut down.
Disabled send mask checks --- to be replaced by proper mechanism.
Fixed bug relating to 'shutdown -x'.
Simplified clock accounting of realtime.
Updated Makefiles for mkdept script.
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.
Reduced kernel size by 512KB by moving private buffer into cstart() function.
Replaced assertions with erroneous return values. Removed assertions relating
to isuserp(rp), since all processes should become user processes; system
processes are now treated similar to other processes.
* 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.
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.
