When we send MMC commads that contain data the controller provides no
description of the order of events and we need to be able to send data
from and to the controller "when needed". Changed the code to react
on buffer read and buffer write ready based on interrupts.

The kernel API for requesting interrupts and the associated callback
have a somewhat strange behaviour. Requesting an interrupts is done
by calling sys_irqsetpolicy using an interrupt and a given id. This
id can be modified by the sys_irqsetpolicy and must be used for
subsequent calls to sys_irqenable/sys_irqdisable. However upon an
incoming call from the kernel NOTIFY_ARG contains the original value
encoded in a set e.g. if 1 << id == true the interrupt was raised.
In order to make it more clear that ticks should be used for timers
and realtime should be used for timestamps / displaying the date/time,
getuptime() was renamed to getticks() and getuptime2() was renamed to
getuptime().
Servers, drivers, libraries, tests, etc that use getuptime()/getuptime2()
have been updated. In instances where a realtime was calculated, the
calculation was changed to use realtime.
System calls clock_getres() and clock_gettime() were added to PM/libc.
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.

i386 systems
. change the kernel/arm to have a special case for the memory

The build system distinction between "bootprog" and "service" is

This patch introduces a framebuffer to Minix. It's written for the ARM
port of Minix, but has an architectural split that separates the
hardware dependent part from the non-hardware dependent part. Futhermore,
this driver was developed using a screen that has a native resolution of
1024x600 pixels and having lack of support for obtaining EDID from the
screen. Consequently, it uses a hardcoded resolution of 1024x600.
The driver uses an interface based on the Linux ioctl API, but supports
only a very limited subset.
All cards in this family (RTL8101E, RTL8102E, RTL8103E, RTL8105E,
possibly others) should be recognized based on the added PCI ID.
The hardware version number of the RTL8105E has been added only to
serve as an example of a card that does not require modification of
certain undocumented registers.
- if supported, override BSY/DRQ flags and start the port anyway if it
times out with DET=3h status during device detection;
- no longer rely on the device signature to be set; unless a valid
signature is obtained, try both ATA and ATAPI device identification.
- do not start a port before the BSY and DRQ flags have been cleared;
as such, poll on device status rather than signature availability.
- change "ahci_sig_timeout" to "ahci_device_timeout" variable setting
accordingly; this variable determines the polling duration before a
newly attached device is given up on, and uses 30 seconds as default;
- use port connect changes (PCS/X/DET->1h) to kick off polling for an
attached device; detachment is still detected by means of PhyRdy
status changes (PRCS/N/DET<->3h).
- the "ahci_sig_timeout" variable now denotes the entire checking
period, and the delay between checks has been hardcoded; what was
previously "ahci_sig_checks" is now computed from those two;
- timeout values are no longer used for both millisecond and clock
tick values, and better typed;
- the computation of timeouts is no longer off by half a second.
There is no need to set/clear PxCMD.FRE on every port start/stop.
Also remove some already useless and now also incomplete port
reinitialization at startup.

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

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.

By decoupling synchronous drivers from VFS, we are a big step closer to
supporting driver crashes under all circumstances. That is, VFS can't
become stuck on IPC with a synchronous driver (e.g., INET) and can
recover from crashing block drivers during open/close/ioctl or during
communication with an FS.
In order to maintain serialized communication with a synchronous driver,
the communication is wrapped by a mutex on a per driver basis (not major
numbers as there can be multiple majors with identical endpoints). Majors
that share a driver endpoint point to a single mutex object.
In order to support crashes from block drivers, the file reopen tactic
had to be changed; first reopen files associated with the crashed
driver, then send the new driver endpoint to FSes. This solves a
deadlock between the FS and the block driver;
- VFS would send REQ_NEW_DRIVER to an FS, but he FS only receives it
after retrying the current request to the newly started driver.
- The block driver would refuse the retried request until all files
had been reopened.
- VFS would reopen files only after getting a reply from the initial
REQ_NEW_DRIVER.
When a character special driver crashes, all associated files have to
be marked invalid and closed (or reopened if flagged as such). However,
they can only be closed if a thread holds exclusive access to it. To
obtain exclusive access, the worker thread (which handles the new driver
endpoint event from DS) schedules a new job to garbage collect invalid
files. This way, we can signal the worker thread that was talking to the
crashed driver and will release exclusive access to a file associated
with the crashed driver and prevent the garbage collecting worker thread
from dead locking on that file.
Also, when a character special driver crashes, RS will unmap the driver
and remap it upon restart. During unmapping, associated files are marked
invalid instead of waiting for an endpoint up event from DS, as that
event might come later than new read/write/select requests and thus
cause confusion in the freshly started driver.
When locking a filp, the usage counters are no longer checked. The usage
counter can legally go down to zero during filp invalidation while there
are locks pending.
DS events are handled by a separate worker thread instead of the main
thread as reopening files could lead to another crash and a stuck thread.
An additional worker thread is then necessary to unlock it.
Finally, with everything asynchronous a race condition in do_select
surfaced. A select entry was only marked in use after succesfully sending
initial select requests to drivers and having to wait. When multiple
select() calls were handled there was opportunity that these entries
were overwritten. This had as effect that some select results were
ignored (and select() remained blocking instead if returning) or do_select
tried to access filps that were not present (because thrown away by
secondary select()). This bug manifested itself with sendrecs, but was
very hard to reproduce. However, it became awfully easy to trigger with
asynsends only.

This commit removes all traces of Minix segments (the text/data/stack
memory map abstraction in the kernel) and significance of Intel segments
(hardware segments like CS, DS that add offsets to all addressing before
page table translation). This ultimately simplifies the memory layout
and addressing and makes the same layout possible on non-Intel
architectures.
There are only two types of addresses in the world now: virtual
and physical; even the kernel and processes have the same virtual
address space. Kernel and user processes can be distinguished at a
glance as processes won't use 0xF0000000 and above.
No static pre-allocated memory sizes exist any more.
Changes to booting:
. The pre_init.c leaves the kernel and modules exactly as
they were left by the bootloader in physical memory
. The kernel starts running using physical addressing,
loaded at a fixed location given in its linker script by the
bootloader. All code and data in this phase are linked to
this fixed low location.
. It makes a bootstrap pagetable to map itself to a
fixed high location (also in linker script) and jumps to
the high address. All code and data then use this high addressing.
. All code/data symbols linked at the low addresses is prefixed by
an objcopy step with __k_unpaged_*, so that that code cannot
reference highly-linked symbols (which aren't valid yet) or vice
versa (symbols that aren't valid any more).
. The two addressing modes are separated in the linker script by
collecting the unpaged_*.o objects and linking them with low
addresses, and linking the rest high. Some objects are linked
twice, once low and once high.
. The bootstrap phase passes a lot of information (e.g. free memory
list, physical location of the modules, etc.) using the kinfo
struct.
. After this bootstrap the low-linked part is freed.
. The kernel maps in VM into the bootstrap page table so that VM can
begin executing. Its first job is to make page tables for all other
boot processes. So VM runs before RS, and RS gets a fully dynamic,
VM-managed address space. VM gets its privilege info from RS as usual
but that happens after RS starts running.
. Both the kernel loading VM and VM organizing boot processes happen
using the libexec logic. This removes the last reason for VM to
still know much about exec() and vm/exec.c is gone.
Further Implementation:
. All segments are based at 0 and have a 4 GB limit.
. The kernel is mapped in at the top of the virtual address
space so as not to constrain the user processes.
. Processes do not use segments from the LDT at all; there are
no segments in the LDT any more, so no LLDT is needed.
. The Minix segments T/D/S are gone and so none of the
user-space or in-kernel copy functions use them. The copy
functions use a process endpoint of NONE to realize it's
a physical address, virtual otherwise.
. The umap call only makes sense to translate a virtual address
to a physical address now.
. Segments-related calls like newmap and alloc_segments are gone.
. All segments-related translation in VM is gone (vir2map etc).
. Initialization in VM is simpler as no moving around is necessary.
. VM and all other boot processes can be linked wherever they wish
and will be mapped in at the right location by the kernel and VM
respectively.
Other changes:
. The multiboot code is less special: it does not use mb_print
for its diagnostics any more but uses printf() as normal, saving
the output into the diagnostics buffer, only printing to the
screen using the direct print functions if a panic() occurs.
. The multiboot code uses the flexible 'free memory map list'
style to receive the list of free memory if available.
. The kernel determines the memory layout of the processes to
a degree: it tells VM where the kernel starts and ends and
where the kernel wants the top of the process to be. VM then
uses this entire range, i.e. the stack is right at the top,
and mmap()ped bits of memory are placed below that downwards,
and the break grows upwards.
Other Consequences:
. Every process gets its own page table as address spaces
can't be separated any more by segments.
. As all segments are 0-based, there is no distinction between
virtual and linear addresses, nor between userspace and
kernel addresses.
. Less work is done when context switching, leading to a net
performance increase. (8% faster on my machine for 'make servers'.)
. The layout and configuration of the GDT makes sysenter and syscall
possible.
. 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.
. all invocations were S or D, so can safely be dropped
to prepare for the segmentless world
. still assign D to the SCP_SEG field in the message
to make previous kernels usable

all newroot does.

building defaults to off until clang is updated.
current clang does not handle -shared, necessary to change the ld

changes:
. mainly small imports of a Makefile or two and small fixes
(turning things back on that were turned off in Makefiles)
. e.g.: dynamic librefuse now depends on dynamic
libpuffs, so libpuffs has to be built dynamically too
and a make dependency barrier is needed in lib/Makefile
. all library objects now have a PIC (for .so) and non-PIC
version, so everything is built twice.
. generate PIC versions of the compat (un-RENAMEd) jump files,
include function type annotation in generated assembly
. build progs with -static by default for now
. also build ld.elf_so
. also import NetBSD ldd
TTY has no way of keeping track of multiple readers for a tty minor
device. Instead, it stores a read request for the last reader only.
Consequently, the first ("overwritten") reader gets stuck on a read
request that's never going to be finished. Also, the overwriting
causes a grant mismatch in VFS when TTY returns a reply for the
second reader.
This patch is a work around for the actual problem (i.e., keeping track
of multiple readers). It checks whether there is a read operation in
progress and returns an error if it is --preventing that reader from
getting overwritten and stuck. It fixes a bug triggered by executing
'top | more' and pressing the space bar for a while (easily reproducable
in a VM, not on hardware).
- add files needed for acpi, ahci, fbd, vfs to libminc
- remove "-lc" from their respective makefiles

- remove PCI tables where system.conf suffices
- remove drivers' ability to mess up NIC order
- fix dp8390 PCI enumeration
- convert ti1225 to instance model
- add system.conf entry for ti1225
- if an operation (R, W, IOCTL) is non blocking, a flag is set
and sent to the device.
- nothing changes for sync devices
- asyn devices should reply asap if an operation is non-blocking.
We must trust the devices, but we had to trust them anyway to
reply to CANCEL correctly
- we safe sending CANCEL commands to asyn devices. This greatly
simplifies the protocol. Asynchronous devices can always reply
when a reply is ready and do not need to deal with other
situations
- currently, none of our drivers use the flags since they drive
virtual devices which do not block
There is important information about booting non-ack images in
docs/UPDATING. ack/aout-format images can't be built any more, and
booting clang/ELF-format ones is a little different. Updating to the
new boot monitor is recommended.
Changes in this commit:
. drop boot monitor -> allowing dropping ack support
. facility to copy ELF boot files to /boot so that old boot monitor
can still boot fairly easily, see UPDATING
. no more ack-format libraries -> single-case libraries
. some cleanup of OBJECT_FMT, COMPILER_TYPE, etc cases
. drop several ack toolchain commands, but not all support
commands (e.g. aal is gone but acksize is not yet).
. a few libc files moved to netbsd libc dir
. new /bin/date as minix date used code in libc/
. test compile fix
. harmonize includes
. /usr/lib is no longer special: without ack, /usr/lib plays no
kind of special bootstrapping role any more and bootstrapping
is done exclusively through packages, so releases depend even
less on the state of the machine making them now.
. rename nbsd_lib* to lib*
. reduce mtree
Instead of using rootdev= or ramimagedev= in the boot monitor

- if no IRQ table is found, we report that ACPI cannot map IRQ
correctly
- fixes mapping of IRQs in KVM because in this case we just fall
through and use the IRQ configured by BIOS. PCI still reports
that it failed to use ACPI. It is a hint if things go wrong.
This driver can be loaded as an overlay on top of a real block
device, and can then be used to generate block-level failures for
certain transfer requests. Specifically, a rule-based system allows
the user to introduce (overt and silent) data corruption and errors.
It exposes itself through /dev/fbd, and a file system can be mounted
on top of it. The new fbdctl(8) tool can be used to control the
driver; see ``man fbdctl'' for details. It also comes with a test
set, located in test/fbdtest.
This removes a race condition when the block driver performs a
complete restart after a crash (the new default). If any user of
the driver finds out its new endpoint and sends a request to the
new driver instance before this instance has had the chance to
initialize, then its initialization would clear all IPC state and
thereby erroneously cancel the incoming request. Clearing IPC
state is only desired upon a stateful restart (where the driver's
endpoint is retained). This information is now passed to and used
by libblockdriver accordingly.
This stops the printer driver from hanging the entire system when
/dev/lp is opened on systems that do not have a parallel port. With
this change, the printer driver shuts down immediately after loading
on such systems.
Each block driver now gets to specify whether it is a disk block
driver, which implies it wants the library to handle getting and
setting partitions for it.
This patch separates the character and block driver communication
protocols. The old character protocol remains the same, but a new
block protocol is introduced. The libdriver library is replaced by
two new libraries: libchardriver and libblockdriver. Their exposed
API, and drivers that use them, have been updated accordingly.
Together, libbdev and libblockdriver now completely abstract away
the message format used by the block protocol. As the memory driver
is both a character and a block device driver, it now implements its
own message loop.
The most important semantic change made to the block protocol is that
it is no longer possible to return both partial results and an error
for a single transfer. This simplifies the interaction between the
caller and the driver, as the I/O vector no longer needs to be copied
back. Also, drivers are now no longer supposed to decide based on the
layout of the I/O vector when a transfer should be cut short. Put
simply, transfers are now supposed to either succeed completely, or
result in an error.
After this patch, the state of the various pieces is as follows:
- block protocol: stable
- libbdev API: stable for synchronous communication
- libblockdriver API: needs slight revision (the drvlib/partition API
in particular; the threading API will also change shortly)
- character protocol: needs cleanup
- libchardriver API: needs cleanup accordingly
- driver restarts: largely unsupported until endpoint changes are
reintroduced
As a side effect, this patch eliminates several bugs, hacks, and gcc
-Wall and -W warnings all over the place. It probably introduces a
few new ones, too.
Update warning: this patch changes the protocol between MFS and disk
drivers, so in order to use old/new images, the MFS from the ramdisk
must be used to mount all file systems.

While no problems have been observed in practice yet, modern compilers
may reorder memory access operations, and that could lead to problems
with memory-mapped I/O typically done by drivers. This patch prevents
any potentially problematic reordering by the compiler in the ATL2
driver.
In addition, this patch removes a number of gcc/clang warnings.
While no problems have been observed in practice yet, modern compilers
may reorder memory access operations, and that could lead to problems
with memory-mapped I/O typically done by drivers. This patch prevents
any potentially problematic reordering by the compiler in the AHCI
driver.
This patch adds support for executing multiple concurrent requests on
different devices on the same AHCI controller. The libdriver library
