2384a85296 FS support for grant-based i/o.
For character device i/o, FS does a so-called 'magic' grant to let the
driver copy from or to user space. As this is done in FS address space,
the driver is told to do this in FS address space. The redirection to
the right user process then happens at copy-time in the kernel, using the
FS grant table. This also happens for DEV_READ and DEV_WRITE on block
devices.

For other block device i/o, which happens from/to FS buffers, FS does
a 'direct' grant to its own address space for the driver.

After the i/o returns, this access has to be K-I-L-L-E-D, revoked.
Sometimes this is after a SUSPEND and DEV_REVIVE, in which case the
revoking happens in pipe.c.

This conversion happens in safe_io_conversion() in device.c, called
by dev_io and dev_bio.

FS has to pre-allocate its own space for these grant tables. This happens
in main.c.

cb02a90b77 Fixed some select bugs related to pipes. Removed SELFD_* because they were
bogus and unused.

e9aabcf2f8 Disabled building rescue driver (no longer needed). Moved allocmem from
library to the memory driver. Always put output from within TTY directly on
the console. Removed second include of driver.h from tty.c. Made tty_inrepcode
bigger. First step to move PM and FS calls that are not regular (API)
system calls out of callnr.h (renumbered them, and removed them from the
table.c files). Imported the Minix-vmd uname implementation. This provides
a more stable ABI than the current implementation. Added a bit of security
checking. Unfortunately not nearly enough to get a secure system. Fixed a
bug related to the sizes of the programs in the image (in PM patch_mem_chunks).

7967177710 endpoint-aware conversion of servers.
'who', indicating caller number in pm and fs and some other servers, has
been removed in favour of 'who_e' (endpoint) and 'who_p' (proc nr.).

In both PM and FS, isokendpt() convert endpoints to process slot
numbers, returning OK if it was a valid and consistent endpoint number.
okendpt() does the same but panic()s if it doesn't succeed. (In PM,
this is pm_isok..)

pm and fs keep their own records of process endpoints in their proc tables,
which are needed to make kernel calls about those processes.

message field names have changed.

fs drivers are endpoints.

fs now doesn't try to get out of driver deadlock, as the protocol isn't
supposed to let that happen any more. (A warning is printed if ELOCKED
is detected though.)

fproc[].fp_task (indicating which driver the process is suspended on)
became an int.

PM and FS now get endpoint numbers of initial boot processes from the
kernel. These happen to be the same as the old proc numbers, to let
user processes reach them with the old numbers, but FS and PM don't know
that. All new processes after INIT, even after the generation number
wraps around, get endpoint numbers with generation 1 and higher, so
the first instances of the boot processes are the only processes ever
to have endpoint numbers in the old proc number range.

More return code checks of sys_* functions have been added.

IS has become endpoint-aware. Ditched the 'text' and 'data' fields
in the kernel dump (which show locations, not sizes, so aren't terribly
useful) in favour of the endpoint number. Proc number is still visible.

Some other dumps (e.g. dmap, rs) show endpoint numbers now too which got
the formatting changed.

PM reading segments using rw_seg() has changed - it uses other fields
in the message now instead of encoding the segment and process number and
fd in the fd field. For that it uses _read_pm() and _write_pm() which to
_taskcall()s directly in pm/misc.c.

PM now sys_exit()s itself on panic(), instead of sys_abort().

RS also talks in endpoints instead of process numbers.

50b06261b6 Implementation of truncate(), ftruncate() and the F_FREESP fcntl().
Implemented by changing write_map to accept a WMAP_FREE flag. In that
case, it doesn't update the datablock (creating indirect zones as
necessary) pointer, but it frees the datablock if present. Also it
frees the single and double indirect blocks if unused.

This makes the implementation of truncate_inode() simpler.
truncate_inode() now accepts a truncation length which makes
implementing truncate() and ftruncate() simple.

This also allowed implementing the F_FREESP fcntl().

6a911b5284 Merge of minix-vmd symlink code.
. new_node() now returns inode of parent dir as argument that
	  has to be put_node()d again by the caller of new_node().
	  it can also return the name of the last component as last_dir()
	  did.
	. advance() takes a pointer to a pointer of an inode as the
	  parent now. This parent can change, in which case the old
	  one is put_node()d and a new one is put there.
	. eat_path() replaced by more flexible parse_path()
	. last_dir() replaced by call to parse_path().
	. do_slink(), do_readlink(), do_lstat() and slink_traverse() added.

Also added some truncate()/ftruncate()-introduction related changes.
(e.g. renamed truncate() to truncate_inode().)

b5e3e6d18c Two 'dynamic driver' features in FS:
.  When drivers disappear that have pending select()s, wake up
   those user processes with EAGAIN so that they can retry their
   select() and won't hang forever on it.
.  When drivers re-appear and are mapped into the dmap, run through
   the list of mounted filesystems and re-dev_open() every one (for
   partition tables and such). This can't happen before the driver
   has exec()ced itself, so processes that have fork()ed but not
   exec()ced yet are marked as DMAP_BABY in the dmap table if they
   are dmapped before they are execced. If that happens, the above
   procedure happens after the exec(). If the exec() happens before
   the dmapping, it (the dev_open()ing) happens right away.

86ed54ee94 FS:
. unmap device drivers from dmap when PM signals they are dead
	. new null-io function (no_dev_io) to fill in for io functions
	  of unmapped drivers
	. driver (process number) of unmapped drivers is NONE instead of
	  0 (a valid process number)

IS:
	. print mutable flag of dmap table too

FS changes require sync() to be done 'manually' (currently by
reboot/shutdown) at shutdown time; could be caught by SIGTERM in
the future.

74711a3b14 Check if kernel calls is allowed (from process' call mask) added. Not yet
enforced. If a call is denied, this will be kprinted. Please report any such
errors, so that I can adjust the mask before returning errors instead of
warnings.

Wrote CMOS driver. All CMOS code from FS has been removed. Currently the
driver only supports get time calls. Set time is left out as an exercise
for the book readers ... startup scripts were updated because the CMOS driver
is needed early on. (IS got same treatment.) Don't forget to run MAKEDEV cmos
in /dev/, otherwise the driver cannot be loaded.

6e8f484b3b . added cd-probe logic; tries to find the right root filesystem
if the boot monitor parameter is set. it also sets a boot monitor
  parameter (by talking to the PM) so userland knows it.
. ramdisk copy code made slightly smarter
. various select() prettifications (work in progress)

9664ba0c4f Started select() implementation.
Added interface to select() for pipes (also named pipes), and select()
stubs for regular files.

Added timer library in FS that select() is the first customer of.


This is unfinished, but committed anyway to get a new release out to
Al and testers.

e44e9ad261 small compile fixes; initial select() stubs; release.sh script doesn't
need /tmp any more since 16MB root device; increase to 3.0.5 to make new
CD with working FXP driver. (not tagged 3.0.5 yet as at driver bios-copy
workaround hasn't been done.)

6d23f072f3 Cleaned up src/lib/utils library. Renamed server_ functions to more logical
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.

322ec9ef8b Moved stime, time, times POSIX calls from FS to PM. Removed child time
accounting from kernel (now in PM).  Large amount of files in this commit
is due to system time problems during development.
