Setting of timestamps on devices had no effect visible to userland

This broke:
- update of file change time after a change of an attribute
- setting of file access and modification times.
The VA_UTIMES_NULL case did not work. Revs 1.31-1.32 were supposed to
fix this by copying correct bits from ufs, but had little or no effect
because the old checks were not removed.

some of the settings were sometimes clobbered with the current time a
little later. This caused cp -p even by root to almost always fail
to preserve any times despite not reporting any errors in attempting
to preserve them.
Don't forget to set the archive attribute when we set the read-only

GID_FT to get a list of Port IDs and then use GPN_ID/GNN_ID to find the

more stable.
This also caused some cleanup of SNS subcommand canonicalization so that
we can actually check for FS_ACC and FS_RJT, and if we get an FS_RJT,

interrupts. This is a bit harder than it needs to be because there's
more than one way to generate link attentions, at least one of which
does not work on the BCM5700, but does on the 5701.
For the 5701, we can safely use the 'link changed' bit in the status
block, and we enable link change attentions in the mac event register.
For the 5700, we have to use MII interrupts, which require checking
the MAC status register rather than the status block. This requires
doing an extra register access on each interrupt which I'd prefer to
avoid, but them's the breaks. Testing with both a 3c996-T and 3c996B-T
shows that we do in fact detect the link going up and down properly
on cable insertions/disconnections.
Also, avoid twiddling the autopoll enable bit in the MI mode register
when doing a PHY read. I think this coupled with the other changes
will stop the interrupt storms Paul Saab has been harassing me about.
Manually setting the link to 100baseTX full duplex seems to work ok
for me. (I'm typing over the 3c996B-T right now.)
Lastly, teach the driver how to recognize a 3c996B-SX by checking
the hardware config word in the EEPROM in order to detect the media.
We attach 5701 fiber cards correctly now, but I haven't verified that
they send/receive packets yet since I don't have a second fiber

of the options yet.
I would appreciate if a userland hacker could help me out getting savecore
to do what we want it to do from a users point of view, compression,

you are interested).
Currently, savecore will scan all devices marked as "swap" or "dump" in

All architectures but i386 lack an implementation of dumpsys(), but
looking at the i386 version it should be trivial for anybody familiar
with the platform(s) to provide this function.
Documentation is quite sparse at this time, more to come.
Details:
ATA and SCSI drivers should work as the dump formatting code has been
removed. The IDA, TWE and AAC have not yet been converted.
Dumpon now opens the device and uses ioctl(DIOCGKERNELDUMP) to set
the device as dumpdev. To implement the "off" argument, /dev/null
is used as the device.
Savecore will fail if handed any options since they are not (yet)
implemented. All devices marked "dump" or "swap" in /etc/fstab
will be scanned and dumps found will be saved to diskfiles
named from the MD5 hash of the header record. The header record
is dumped in readable format in the .info file. The kernel
is not saved. Only complete dumps will be saved.

Bugs in EOF handling in -current limited the problem to "disks" with
size precisely LABELSECTOR sectors. LABELSECTOR happens to be a very
unusual "disk" size since it is only 0 for non-i386 arches that don't
usually have disks with DOS MBRs.
provided the latter is nonzero. At this point, the former is a fairly
arbitrary default value (DFTPHYS), so changing it to any reasonable
value specified by the device driver is safe. Using the maximum of
these limits broke ffs clustered i/o for devices whose si_iosize_max
is < DFLTPHYS. Using the minimum would break device drivers' ability
to increase the active limit from DFTLPHYS up to MAXPHYS.
Copied the code for this and the associated (unnecessary?) fixup of
mp_iosize_max to all other filesystems that use clustering (ext2fs and
msdosfs). It was completely missing.

only care if it's network or not at this time. If we're loaded from
the network, we set currdev (=loaddev) so that the kernel is loaded
from the network as well. In all other cases we initialize to disk.
This makes netbooting more convenient and can easily be enhanced to
do more elaborate checking.
Most significantly (from an interfacing point of view) is the
support for the FPSWA pointer passing. Even though that was added
4 months ago, it's probably not a bad idea to bump the version
number to reflect this.
o Query the state field of the protocol mode to determine whether
we need to start and/or initialize the protocol. When we're
loaded across the network, the protocol has already been started
and is already initialized. When no networking has happened yet,
we have to start and initialize the protocol ourselves.
o After initialization, we have to set the receive filters. Not
doing this results in a deaf interface. We set the unicast and
broadcast filters. Multicast may not be supported. This specific
change fixes the problem we had that we could not netboot if
the loader was started from the EFI shell.
o To help future debugging, add a function that dumps the current
mode of the interface. It's conditional on EFINET_DEBUG.
o To help in runtime problems, emit a diagnostic message when we
could not initialize the protocol properly.
an efi_devdesc structure. When we're netbooting, f->f_devdata holds
the address of the network socket variable. Dereferencing this caused
some very unpredictable behaviour, including proper functioning.
So, as a sanity check, we first make sure f->f_dev points to our
own devsw. If not, the open will fail before we use f->f_devdata.
This solves the netboot hangs I invariably got whenever I used the
latest toolchain to compile the EFI loader.
layer to signal transmission of the packet. This resolves the
problem I'm seeing that an immediate call to net->Receive
after calling net->Transmit returns EFI_DEVICE_ERROR. This
condition seems to be sufficiently persistent that BOOTP and
RARP fail.
o While here, unify all functions to have 'nif' defined. Some
have it as arguments. The others now have them as locals. We
now always get the protocol interface by using the 'nif' var.
The current status of netbooting is that even though we now reliably
have BOOTP working (again), opening a file (ie loading a kernel)
across the network causes the loader to hang. I'm working on that now.
exists, otherwise we install it anyway. I interpret this as a very
high desire to install ${PROG}.help. Alas, ${PROG}.help doesn't exist
at the moment and neither does loader.help, so in practice this just
doesn't work, no matter how you interpret it. The compromise is to
install ${PROG}.help IFF it exists. I realize we lost creativity with
this commit, but style should have been preserved, AFAICT :-)
back into the calling MD code. The MD code must ensure no races between
checking the astpening flag and returning to usermode.
