/etc CHANGES:
- /etc/drivers.conf has been renamed to /etc/system.conf. Every entry in
the file is now marked as "service" rather than driver.
- user "service" has been added to password file /etc/passwd.
- docs/UPDATING updated accordingly, as well as every other mention to the old
drivers.conf in the system.
RS CHANGES:
- No more distinction between servers and drivers.
- RS_START has been renamed to RS_UP and the old legacy RS_UP and RS_UP_COPY
dropped.
- RS asks PCI to set / remove ACL entries only for services whose ACL properties
have been set. This change eliminates unnecessary warnings.
- Temporarily minimize the risk of potential races at boot time or when starting
a new service. Upcoming changes will eliminate races completely.
- General cleanup.
remembering the origin and cursor position as that feature didn't
really work properly anyway
- tty: map in video and font memory using a vm call, access it from C,
thereby eliminating pesky weird segment calls and assembly to access it,
and unbreaks loadfont (Roman Ignatov)
- bios_wini: fix bios_wini by allocating a <1MB buffers for it
- memory: preallocate ramdisk, makes it a bit faster (and doesn't
fail halfway if you allocate a huge one)
- floppy: use <1MB buffer
- ramdisk proto: because of the 2x1 page reservations, binaries
got a little fatter and didn't fit on the ramdisk any more.
increase it.
. include c1* nodes in std in MAKEDEV
. this requires a slightly larger shell
. this requires a larger blocksize on the boot ramdisk (to fit
/dev/ in direct blocks for mkfs with a proto file)
. also more inodes and kB's on the boot ramdisk
