- kern.maxproc and kern.maxprocperuid were read-only (and thus essentially
useless. Apparently no one uses them).
- all the user sysctls were read-write (and thus it was possible for them
to be inconsistent with the authoritative fixed values in the library).
Removed unused #include.
by sysctl and never can be in their documented form (kern.name_max would
have to become fs.filesystemname.name_max, etc.).
Added missing references to user.stream_max and user.tzname_max. These
seem to misnamed. <sys/sysconf.h> says that they correspond to POSIX2
names, but the sysconf names don't have POSIX2 or "posix2" like all the
other POSIX2 names.
. prototyped and staticized the internal functions while i was here,
. made the thing -Wall clean,
. fixed an error that causes the recipient name to be matched only
for the first characters, as opposed to a full name (wonder why i'm
concerned? Well, one of my login IDs is `j', and i've noticed that
vacation has been sending out replies to all mailing list messages
that had a jkh@ or jmb@ in it :),
. introduced an option -l to list the contents of the database; mucho
useful if you've got (too) many mailing list messages in your inbox
and wanna make sure you don't miss the `important' mails.
search 'pattern' in whole file 'file', from top to bottom. This is
not necessary; if grep found 'pattern' it can stop further searching
in file 'file'.
Example:
$ time ./grep-old -q Adam /usr/share/dict/*
1.93 real 1.05 user 0.85 sys
$ time ./grep-new -q Adam /usr/share/dict/*
0.14 real 0.06 user 0.06 sys
for headers in the compile directory work unsurprisingly. Without
-I-, the search for "foo.h" begins in the directory of the file
that includes it, and the compile directory is only searched because
`-I.' is in ${INCLUDES}.
Removed -I$S/sys from ${INCLUDES}. It was once necessary to find
things like "param.h" in $S/sys. Now <sys/param.h> is found in $S.
- old static non-profiled libraries were removed in the wrong directory
if ${ORIG_SHLIBDIR} != ${LIBDIR}.
- old profiled libraries weren't removed.
- new shared compat libraries were installed in the wrong directory if
${ORIG_SHLIBDIR} != /usr/lib.
- some lines were too long.
Added some comments about cases that have caused problems. Changed
libfoo to ${LIB} so that libresolv/Makefile and libgnumalloc/Makefile
are almost identical.
lcall 7,0 (ie: ldt slot 0) and lcall 0x87,0 (ldt slot 16, it's shifted
three bits to the left). I was fiddling with this so long ago, I don't
recall the specifics.
with this quite a while ago when somebody reported a BSD/OS 2.1 binary
that wouldn't run. I'm pretty sure they tried it and I'm pretty sure
they mentioned to me that the patch worked.
complaints and suggestions about this over the last few days that I
cannot remember who has said what anymore. :-(
There is also a comment here about the intent of the process and another
explicit pointer to the etc/etc/rc change to that has been ignored by
quite a few people it seems.
stuff and detection for the "gnumalloc" port which doesn't exist and
nobody has cared enough about for the past 6 months or so to implement.
As has been pointed out to me (quite a few times) in email, the people
that had been bitten by the changes had failed to follow the instructions
about updating /etc/rc.
Bruce also pointed out that after my last commit, it was no longer
removing /usr/lib/libgnumalloc.so.2.0 as it should have been.
Hopefully this (and the comments in the Makefile) should defuse the problem
a bit.
since we don't have it yet and I've taken too long on the libg++-2.7.2
stuff (it causes problems due to to the lack of .weak support which I've
nearly finished)
Submitted by: "Ph. Charnier" <charnier@xp11.frmug.org>
and use /dev/console.
I really think the proper test is to determine which device has been configured
to be the console (remember the RB_SERIAL flag?) and use it instead of always
trying to open /dev/ttyv0 first.
and the user inserts a floppy), read the config file to pre-define variables
for a custom installation.
[Note: I fixed one bug in LOAD_CONFIG_FILE code, but it's still not perfect.]
pick up the old CVSROOT if we don't have the environment variable set.
If /usr/src/release/install.cfg is present, put it out onto
the root filesystem of the boot floppy. It may optionally be
used to pre-configure sysinstall with custom values. (See next
batch of commits).
in order to create sparse directory files that caused a panic of a
filesystem where fsck would not find anything. A fix for fsck is in the
make but still has to be reviewed by Kirk McKusick.
not halt on error. Thanks to Wolfram for reminding me. ;)
Also remove a unnecessary test for c == '\n', since the
loop (in ParseSkipLine) will not terminate unless
c == '\n' || c == EOF, and the EOF case is already
explicted handled by a return statement.
comparisons in the inb() and outb() macros. I decided that int args
are OK here. Any type that can hold a u_int16_t without overflow
is correct, and 32-bit types are optimal.
Introduced a few tens of warnings (100 in LINT) for use of pessimized
(short) types for the port arg. Only a few drivers are affected by
this. u_short pessimizations aren't detected.
Added `__extension__' before the statement-expression in inb() so
that it can be compiled without warnings by gcc -pedantic.
