a415b68523 Release.sh now uses packages.install and package_sources.install to
determine which packages and package sources to include on the
installation media, as opposed to including everything in the
PACKAGEDIR AND PACKAGESOURCEDIR directories.

dac531addf Support for VMWare Workstation 6.x
VMWare Workstation 6.x would previously die when running MINIX 3 with an
IOSPACE assertion and several error messages about multiply registered
I/O ports. The assertion is triggered when we probe for BAR sizes in
record_bar(). The solution: The PCI driver now disables I/O and mem
access before probing for BAR sizes.

Bumped up NR_PCIDEV and NR_PCIBUS, since Workstation 6.x virtualizes
more PCI buses and devices.

f76d75a5ec Various VFS and MFS fixes to improve correctness, consistency and
POSIX compliance.

VFS changes:
* truncate() on a file system mounted read-only no longer panics MFS.
* ftruncate() and fcntl(F_FREESP) now check for write permission on
  the file descriptor instead of the file, write().
* utime(), chown() and fchown() now check for file system read-only
  status.

MFS changes:
* link() and rename() no longer return the internal EENTERMOUNT and
  ELEAVEMOUNT errors to the application as part of a check on the
  source path.
* rename() now treats EENTERMOUNT from the destination path check as
  an error, preventing file system corruption from renaming a normal
  directory to an existing mountpoint directory.
* mountpoints (mounted-on dirs) are hidden better during lookups:
  - if a lookup starts from a mountpoint, the first component has to
    be ".." (anything else being a VFS-FS protocol violation).
  - in that case, the permissions of the mountpoint are not checked.
  - in all other cases, visiting a mountpoint always results in
    EENTERMOUNT.
* a lookup on ".." from a mount root or chroot(2) root no longer
  succeeds if the caller does not have search permission on that
  directory.
* POSIX: getdents() now updates directory access times.
* POSIX: readlink() now returns partial results instead of ERANGE.

Miscellaneous changes:
* semaphore file handling bug (leading to hangs) fixed in test 32.

The VFS changes should now put the burden of checking for read-only
status of file systems entirely on VFS, and limit the access
permission checks that file systems have to perform, to checking
search permission on directories during lookups. From this point on,
any deviation from that spceification should be considered a bug.
Note that for legacy reasons, the root partition is assumed to be
mounted read-write.

bdab3c4cfb Library call for cpu features; make kernel and vm use this to query cpu
features (specifically: 4MB pages and TLB global bit).  Only enable
these features in CR4 if available. 4MB pages to be used in the near
future.

dd56aa321f to let tty run with its own page table (instead of with the kernel identity
map table), make it map in video memory.

sadly, this breaks tty in non-paged mode.

happily, this simplifies the code by throwing out the messing
around with segments, and throws out vidcopy.s.

e3ca89c0be more sanity checking. sanity checking disabled by default.
give every process a full pagetable by default now.

might not have page tables -> no address translation).

9a01c828c8 VFS-FS error codes: better safe than sorry 2009-05-11 11:30:04 +00:00
David van Moolenbroek
0ac1aaccca Limited support for nested FS->VFS requests during VFS->FS call.
- Changed VFS-FS protocol to only store OK or negative error code in
  m_type field of reply messages.
- Changed VFS to treat nonzero positive replies from FS as requests.
- Added backwards compatibility to VFS and MFS.
No protection of global data structures is provided in VFS, so many
VFS calls cannot be made safely by FS servers during many FS calls.
Use with caution (or, preferably, not at all).

dc1238b7b9 make unpause() decrease susp_count, as it shouldn't be decreased
if the process was REVIVING. (susp_count doesn't count those
 processes.) this together with dev_io SELECT suspend side effect
 for asynch. character devices solves the hanging pipe bug. or
 at last vastly improves it.

 added sanity checks, turned off by default.

 made the {NOT_,}{SUSPENDING,REVIVING} constants weirder to
 help sanity checking.

b7e23b70e8 - delete unused .h files
- slight code cleanup
 - neater exit procedure: exit when unmount
   message received and kill signal (from RS 'down' or
   reboot/shutdown) received (speed up unmount, but don't
   confuse VFS by exiting before/during unmount msg)
