IS:
- do not use p_getfrom_e for a process that is sending
- register with TTY only function keys that are used
- various header and formatting fixes
- proper shutdown code
TTY:
- restore proper Ctrl+F1 dump contents
isofs:
- don't even try to call sys_exit()
form. Subscriptions are regular expressions.
. different types are stored per key; currently u32 and/or string.
the same key can be referenced (publish, subscribe, check) as any type.
. notify()s are sent when subscriptions are triggered (publishing or
updating of matching keys); optionally, a subscribe flag sends
updates for all matching keys at subscription time, instead of only
after updates after subscribing
. all interfacing to ds is in /usr/src/lib/syslib/ds.c.
. subscribe is ds_subscribe
publish functions are ds_publish_<type>
retrieve functions are ds_retrieve_<type> (one-time retrieval of a value)
check functions are ds_check_<type> (check for updated key caller
subscribes to not yet checked for, or ESRCH for none)
. ramdisk driver updated with new ds interface
New Shift-F6 dump for RS server at IS.
New getnpid, getnproc, getpproc library calls at PM.
New reincarnation server (basic functionality is there now).
This was caused by a change in the shared driver code. Not log's fault.
Renamed #definitions of driver process numbers, e.g., TTY now is TTY_PROC_NR.
All known (special) processes now have consistent naming scheme. Kernel tasks
don't follow this scheme.
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.
* 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.
names. All system processes can now either use panic() or report() from
libutils, or redefine their own function. Assertions are done via the standard
<assert.h> functionality.
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.
