. added bss range values for the high (paged) kernel and
clear it in pre_init
. this changes the meaning of the current _edata end _end in the
pre_init phase to mean: highly mapped bss; and the new symbols
_kern_unpaged_edata ... _kern_unpaged_edata to mean directly
mapped (pre_init) bss. This was previously _edata and _end.
. added a sanity check in kmain (ben@)

Change the kernel to add features to vircopy and safecopies so that
transparent copy fixing won't happen to avoid deadlocks, and such copies
fail with EFAULT.
Transparently making copying work from filesystems (as normally done by
the kernel & VM when copying fails because of missing/readonly memory)
is problematic as it can happen that, for file-mapped ranges, that that
same filesystem that is blocked on the copy request is needed to satisfy
the memory range, leading to deadlock. Dito for VFS itself, if done with
a blocking call.
This change makes the copying done from a filesystem fail in such cases
with EFAULT by VFS adding the CPF_TRY flag to the grants. If a FS call
fails with EFAULT, VFS will then request the range to be made available
to VM after the FS is unblocked, allowing it to be used to satisfy the
range if need be in another VFS thread.
Similarly, for datacopies that VFS itself does, it uses the failable
vircopy variant and callers use a wrapper that talk to VM if necessary
to get the copy to work.
. kernel: add CPF_TRY flag to safecopies
. kernel: only request writable ranges to VM for the
target buffer when copying fails
. do copying in VFS TRY-first
. some fixes in VM to build SANITYCHECK mode
. add regression test for the cases where
- a FS system call needs memory mapped in a process that the
FS itself must map.
- such a range covers more than one file-mapped region.
. add 'try' mode to vircopy, physcopy
. add flags field to copy kernel call messages
. if CP_FLAG_TRY is set, do not transparently try
to fix memory ranges
. for use by VFS when accessing user buffers to avoid
deadlock
. remove some obsolete backwards compatability assignments
. VFS: let thread scheduling work for VM requests too
Allows VFS to make calls to VM while suspending and resuming
the currently running thread. Does currently not work for the
main thread.
. VM: add fix memory range call for use by VFS

- Fix for possible unset uid/gid in toproto
- Fix for default mtree style
- Update libelf
- Importing libexecinfo
- Resynchronize GCC, mpc, gmp, mpfr
- build.sh: Replace params with show-params.
This has been done as the make target has been renamed in the same
way, while a new target named params has been added. This new
target generates a file containing all the parameters, instead of
printing it on the console.
- Update test48 with new etc/services (Fix by Ben Gras <ben@minix3.org)
get getservbyport() out of the inner loop

. use netbsd sigframe, sigcontext struct
. netbsd sigframe *contains* sigcontext; use that directly
in kernel sigsend
. drop two fields from minix x86 stackframe.h (process context)
that were unused, retadr and st
use in-sigframe sigcontext

This allows us to write things like this:
message m;
m.m_notify.interrupts = new_value;
or
message *mp;
mp->m_notify.interrupts = new_value;
The shorthands macro have been adapted for the new scheme, and will be
kept as long as we have generic messages being used.

. create signals-related struct message type to store sigset_t
directly
. create notify-specific message types, so the generic NOTIFY_ARG
doesn't exist anymore
. various related test expansions, improvements, fixes
. add a few error-checks to sigismember() calls
. rename kernel call specific signals fields to SYS_*

. implement TIOCSCTTY for use by getty so getty can get
controlling terminal from init's child(ren)
. allow NULL envp for exec

- make brk(2) go to VM directly, rather than through PM;
- remove obsolete BRK, UTIME, and WAIT calls;
- clean up path copying routine in VFS;
- move remaining system calls from libminlib to libc;
- correct some errno-related mistakes in libc routines.

- move system calls for use by services from libminlib into libsys;
- move srv_fork(2) and srv_kill(2) from RS and into libsys;
- replace getprocnr(2) with sef_self(3);
- rename previous getnprocnr(2) to getprocnr(2);
- clean up getepinfo(2);
- change all libsys calls that used _syscall to use _taskcall, so as
to avoid going through errno to pass errors; this is already how
most calls work anyway, and many of the calls previously using
_syscall were already assumed to return the actual error;
- initialize request messages to zero, for future compatibility
(note that this does not include PCI calls, which are in need of a
much bigger overhaul, nor kernel calls);
- clean up more of dead DS code as a side effect.
