c566d4623b Allow install of binutils and import texinfo
- Enable installing binutils from the base system.

 - Import texinfo which is required for the binutils tools
   to be compiled.

 - Also adapted the fetch rules to correctly generate the
   gitignore files for gcc, and allow the case of multiple
   modules in the same directory, as found in gnu/dist.

8a3677def0 build:refactor arm_sdimage.sh as to no longer require root.
There where two reasons for needing root access while making ARM builds. The
first reason was that we needed root permissions to create device nodes and
assign permissions to files. The second reason we needed root was that we used
loop mounted files to copy the build output to the file backed storage.

The first problem is solved by building in unprivileged mode (adding -U) during
compilation. The second problem is solved by using mcopy to put files on the
fat partition and use the mkfs.mfs proto files to create MFS file system.

Future work might be to replace this script by the netbsd makefs tool.

5acaa0814f kernel, ramdisk: some boot unification
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.

	. ramdisk: remove some arm-only utilities only used for running
	  from the shell
	. remove ARM-only rc.arm, proto.arm.small, ttys and mylogin.sh
	  boot-time ramdisk files
	. change kernel to add "arch" variable so userland knows what
	  we're running on from sysenv
	. make ARM use the regular ramdisk rc file, changed to distinguish
	  i386-only and ARM-only drivers; requires rootdevname to be set
	. change /etc/rc and /usr/etc/rc to start i386-only drivers only on
	  i386 systems
	. change the kernel/arm to have a special case for the memory
	  driver to load it higher so it can be bigger
	. add uEnv.txt, cmdline.txt and a for now highly linux-dependent
	  SD preparation script arm_sdimage.sh to the git repository in
	  releasetools/

252a83f614 Fix command line history in ash
Also did some cleanup in ash sources, to make minix modifications
more obvious, as well as some simplifications (by removing code which
is never compiled)

Removed EDITLINE support, use libedit, which does the termcap/terminfo
handling.

WARNING: this will break existing dynamically linked binaries if they
exist. If you have any:
	. re-build world statically first if necessary
	. remove libraries from /lib and /usr/lib
	. then build world

This change:
	. avoids possible future dismay when interfacing other
	  systems' binaries; done until they are abi-compatible

Thanks to Antoine Leca for pointing this out.

53f94f8ed4 dynamic executables on ramdisk support
See UPDATING about upgrading clang for dynamic linking.

	. allow executables on ramdisk to be dynamically linked; this means
	  putting a few required shared libraries and ld.elf_so on the ramdisk.
	. this makes the ramdisk (usage) smaller when they are dynamic, but
	  bigger when they're not.
	. also we can safely ditch newroot and call mount directly as that is
	  all newroot does.
	. create proto.common to share a bunch of entries between
	  small/nonsmall cases

a5190194a0 build: don't -L/usr/pkg/lib
You might have to update the compiler-rt package! See UPDATING.

	. the purpose of this -L was solely to find compiler-rt, which contains
	  runtime support code for clang-compiled binaries
	. this also makes all other packaged libraries visible, however
	. it is cleaner to isolate the base system from packages, and so
	  compiler-rt puts itself in /usr/pkg/compiler-rt/lib/ too, which the
	  base system henceforth uses exclusively
	. e.g. this solves a link failure when libfetch is installed as a
	  package
	. the new compiler-rt package also puts itself in /usr/pkg/lib for 'old'
	  systems; that is harmless. The benefit of 'new' systems is that the other
	  packages are hidden.

2fe8fb192f Full switch to clang/ELF. Drop ack. Simplify.
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

e7db2d3588 Add fbd -- Faulty Block Device driver
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.

ef0a265086 New stat structure.
* VFS and installed MFSes must be in sync before and after this change *

Use struct stat from NetBSD. It requires adding new STAT, FSTAT and LSTAT
syscalls. Libc modification is both backward and forward compatible.

Also new struct stat uses modern field sizes to avoid ABI
incompatibility, when we update uid_t, gid_t and company.
Exceptions are ino_t and off_t in old libc (though paddings added).

f3d5a9dc61 Reduce compiler/libraries/headers cases to only two
1. ack, a.out, minix headers (moved to /usr/include.ack),
	   minix libc
	2. gcc/clang, elf, netbsd headers (moved to /usr/include),
	   netbsd libc (moved to /usr/lib)

So this obsoletes the /usr/netbsd hierarchy.

No special invocation for netbsd libc necessary - it's always used
for gcc/clang.

cc17b27a2b Build NetBSD libc library in world in ELF mode.
3 sets of libraries are built now:
  . ack: all libraries that ack can compile (/usr/lib/i386/)
  . clang+elf: all libraries with minix headers (/usr/lib/)
  . clang+elf: all libraries with netbsd headers (/usr/netbsd/)

Once everything can be compiled with netbsd libraries and headers, the
/usr/netbsd hierarchy will be obsolete and its libraries compiled with
netbsd headers will be installed in /usr/lib, and its headers
in /usr/include. (i.e. minix libc and current minix headers set
will be gone.)

To use the NetBSD libc system (libraries + headers) before
it is the default libc, see:
   http://wiki.minix3.org/en/DevelopersGuide/UsingNetBSDCode
This wiki page also documents the maintenance of the patch
files of minix-specific changes to imported NetBSD code.

Changes in this commit:
  . libsys: Add NBSD compilation and create a safe NBSD-based libc.
  . Port rest of libraries (except libddekit) to new header system.
  . Enable compilation of libddekit with new headers.
  . Enable kernel compilation with new headers.
  . Enable drivers compilation with new headers.
  . Port legacy commands to new headers and libc.
  . Port servers to new headers.
  . Add <sys/sigcontext.h> in compat library.
  . Remove dependency file in tree.
  . Enable compilation of common/lib/libc/atomic in libsys
  . Do not generate RCSID strings in libc.
  . Temporarily disable zoneinfo as they are incompatible with NetBSD format
  . obj-nbsd for .gitignore
  . Procfs: use only integer arithmetic. (Antoine Leca)
  . Increase ramdisk size to create NBSD-based images.
  . Remove INCSYMLINKS handling hack.
  . Add nbsd_include/sys/exec_elf.h
  . Enable ELF compilation with NBSD libc.
  . Add 'make nbsdsrc' in tools to download reference NetBSD sources.
  . Automate minix-port.patch creation.
  . Avoid using fstavfs() as it is *extremely* slow and unneeded.
  . Set err() as PRIVATE to avoid name clash with libc.
  . [NBSD] servers/vm: remove compilation warnings.
  . u32 is not a long in NBSD headers.
  . UPDATING info on netbsd hierarchy
  . commands fixes for netbsd libc
