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

.In sys/types.h

.Ft int
|
|
.Fn getfh "const char *path" "void *fhp" "size_t *fh_size"
|
|
.Sh DESCRIPTION
|
|
.Fn getfh
|
|
returns a file handle for the specified file or directory
|
|
in the file handle pointed to by
|
|
.Fa fhp .
|
|
The variable pointed to by
|
|
.Fa fh_size
|
|
has to be initialized to the memory allocated for the variable sized file
|
|
handle.
|
|
On return the value will be replaced by the actual size
|
|
needed (which will vary depending on the file system the path is on).
|
|
This system call is restricted to the superuser.
|
|
To query the necessary size for the filehandle, a
|
|
.Dv NULL
|
|
pointer may
|
|
be passed as
|
|
.Fa fhp ,
|
|
and the value pointed to by
|
|
.Fa fh_size
|
|
should be initialized to zero.
|
|
.Sh RETURN VALUES
|
|
Upon successful completion, a value of 0 is returned.
|
|
Otherwise, \-1 is returned and the global variable
|
|
.Va errno
|
|
is set to indicate the error.
|
|
