This one is strange and goes against my rusty compiler knowledge.
The global declaration
struct sockaddr whereto;
produces for both i386 && alpha:
.comm whereto,16,1
which means common storage, byte aligned. Ahem. I though structs
were supposed to be ALDOUBLE always? I mean, w/o pragma packed?
Later on, this address is coerced to:
to = (struct sockaddr_in *)&whereto;
Up until now, we've been fine on alpha because the address
just ended up aligned to a 4 byte boundary. Lately, though,
it end up as:
0000000120027b0f B whereto
And, tra la, you get unaligned access faults. The solution I picked, in
lieu of understanding what the compiler was doing, is to put whereto
as a union of a sockaddr and sockaddr_in. That's more formally correct
if somewhat awkward looking.
perform a key change, *and* our sequence numbers have wrapped,
ensure that the number of key changes is calculated correctly.
The previous code counted down from a negative number to zero,
re-encrypting the current key on each iteration - this took some
time and strangely enough got the answer wrong !!!
Fix a(nother) spelling mistake while I'm there.
Monitor the system power profile, and use _SCP to adjust thermal zones
accordingly.
Simplify the behaviour of the timeout routine, and add some temporary
debugging.
The p_can(...) construct was a premature (and, it turns out,
awkward) abstraction. The individual calls to p_canxxx() better
reflect differences between the inter-process authorization checks,
such as differing checks based on the type of signal. This has
a side effect of improving code readability.
o Replace direct credential authorization checks in ktrace() with
invocation of p_candebug(), while maintaining the special case
check of KTR_ROOT. This allows ktrace() to "play more nicely"
with new mandatory access control schemes, as well as making its
authorization checks consistent with other "debugging class"
checks.
o Eliminate "privused" construct for p_can*() calls which allowed the
caller to determine if privilege was required for successful
evaluation of the access control check. This primitive is currently
unused, and as such, serves only to complicate the API.
