To use the new SD building script, Linux has to be configured with
loop.max_part=15 on the command line (or set at module load time)
to make the loopback device see the partitions.
This commit removes a lot of differences between the ARM and x86
boot ramdisk and rc scripts. It changes the ARM build from running
from ramdisk to requiring a full filesystem on the SD image and
booting into it.
. ramdisk: remove some arm-only utilities only used for running
from the shell
. remove ARM-only rc.arm, proto.arm.small, ttys and mylogin.sh
boot-time ramdisk files
. change kernel to add "arch" variable so userland knows what
we're running on from sysenv
. make ARM use the regular ramdisk rc file, changed to distinguish
i386-only and ARM-only drivers; requires rootdevname to be set
. change /etc/rc and /usr/etc/rc to start i386-only drivers only on
i386 systems
. change the kernel/arm to have a special case for the memory
driver to load it higher so it can be bigger
. add uEnv.txt, cmdline.txt and a for now highly linux-dependent
SD preparation script arm_sdimage.sh to the git repository in
releasetools/

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"
. Some Makefile fixes to automatically differentiate between a normal
compilation and cross-compilation. Also, build compressed images.
. Harmonize ramdisk rc scripts for normal use case and ext2 ramdisk.
. ext2_ramdisk filesystem prototype fixes.
See UPDATING about upgrading clang for dynamic linking.
. allow executables on ramdisk to be dynamically linked; this means
putting a few required shared libraries and ld.elf_so on the ramdisk.
. this makes the ramdisk (usage) smaller when they are dynamic, but
bigger when they're not.
. also we can safely ditch newroot and call mount directly as that is
all newroot does.
. create proto.common to share a bunch of entries between
small/nonsmall cases
Instead of using rootdev= or ramimagedev= in the boot monitor
which are changed to numbers and cannot be used with other
loaders, rootdevname= or ramimagename= are (MINIX-style)
device names always stored as strings.
Patch by Antoine Leca.
. also implement now-possible fsck -p option
. allows unconditional fsck -p invocation at startup,
only checking each filesystem if not marked clean
. mounting unclean is allowed but is forced readonly
. updating the superblock while mounted is now not
allowed by mfs - must be done (e.g. by fsck.mfs)
on an unmounted fs
. clean flag is unset by mfs on mounting, and set by
mfs on clean unmounting (if clean flag was set at
mount time)

. always compile acpi, with clang, so never have
build/clean inconsistencies; can be enabled (i.e. run
at boot time) by setting acpi variable in the boot monitor
. always strip binaries with the right strip cmd, so never
have ack/elf strip inconsistencies
This eliminates a race condition between the disk driver calling
sys_statectl(SYS_STATE_CLEAR_IPC_REFS) as part of driver_announce(),
and the root MFS calling sendrec(DEV_OPEN) on the disk driver.
