941fdb393b Add the loader side of support for preloading ELF relocatable object
format modules, which are currently only used on the amd64 platform.
This initial implementation just parses enough of the module to
allow it to extract dependencies and load all the bits into the
right place in memory, so the kernel must still do the full relocation
and linking. The details of the loaded sections are passed to the
kernel by supplying a copy of the ELF section header table as module
metadata with the MODINFOMD_SHDR tag.

45b8d7c46e Separate out the ELF relocation code from the ELF loader, and add
better relocation support for the amd64 and i386 platforms. This
should not result in any change in functionality, but moves a step
towards supporting the relocatable object file modules on amd64.

The same hack/trick as load_elf*.c uses is used here to simultaneously
support both elf32 and elf64 on amd64 and i386.

84344f9fbf Rename the kern.vm.kmem.size tunable to the more logical vm.kmem_size. To
assure backward compatibility (conditional on !BURN_BRIDGES), look it up
by its old name first, and log a warning (but accept the setting) if it
was found.  If both the old and new name are defined, the new name takes
precedence.

Also export vm.kmem_size as a read-only sysctl variable; I find it hard to
tune a parameter when I don't know its default value, especially when that
default value is computed at boot time.

48a0b96a50 Enable the i386 loader to load and run an amd64 kernel. If this puts
things over floppy size limits, I can exclude it for release builds or
something like that.  Most of the changes are to get the load_elf.c file
into a seperate elf32_ or elf64_ namespace so that you can have two
ELF loaders present at once.  Note that for 64 bit kernels, it actually
starts up the kernel already in 64 bit mode with paging enabled.  This
is really easy because we have a known minimum feature set.

Of note is that for amd64, we have to pass in the bios int 15 0xe821
memory map because once in long mode, you absolutely cannot make VM86
calls.  amd64 does not use 'struct bootinfo' at all.  It is a pure loader
metadata startup, just like sparc64 and powerpc.  Much of the
infrastructure to support this was adapted from sparc64.

ada981b228 Create a new 32-bit fs_flags word in the superblock. Add code to move
the old 8-bit fs_old_flags to the new location the first time that the
filesystem is mounted by a new kernel. One of the unused flags in
fs_old_flags is used to indicate that the flags have been moved.
Leave the fs_old_flags word intact so that it will work properly if
used on an old kernel.

Change the fs_sblockloc superblock location field to be in units
of bytes instead of in units of filesystem fragments. The old units
did not work properly when the fragment size exceeeded the superblock
size (8192). Update old fs_sblockloc values at the same time that
the flags are moved.

dd200e5643 Enable UFS1_AND_UFS2 support for sparc64 by default. Booting from ufs1 or

2002-06-21 22:33:56 +00:00
Kirk McKusick
1c85e6a35d This commit adds basic support for the UFS2 filesystem. The UFS2
filesystem expands the inode to 256 bytes to make space for 64-bit
block pointers. It also adds a file-creation time field, an ability
to use jumbo blocks per inode to allow extent like pointer density,
and space for extended attributes (up to twice the filesystem block
size worth of attributes, e.g., on a 16K filesystem, there is space
for 32K of attributes). UFS2 fully supports and runs existing UFS1
filesystems. New filesystems built using newfs can be built in either
UFS1 or UFS2 format using the -O option. In this commit UFS1 is
the default format, so if you want to build UFS2 format filesystems,
you must specify -O 2. This default will be changed to UFS2 when
UFS2 proves itself to be stable. In this commit the boot code for
reading UFS2 filesystems is not compiled (see /sys/boot/common/ufsread.c)
as there is insufficient space in the boot block. Once the size of the
boot block is increased, this code can be defined.

Things to note: the definition of SBSIZE has changed to SBLOCKSIZE.
The header file <ufs/ufs/dinode.h> must be included before
<ufs/ffs/fs.h> so as to get the definitions of ufs2_daddr_t and
ufs_lbn_t.

Still TODO:
Verify that the first level bootstraps work for all the architectures.
Convert the utility ffsinfo to understand UFS2 and test growfs.
Add support for the extended attribute storage. Update soft updates
to ensure integrity of extended attribute storage. Switch the
current extended attribute interfaces to use the extended attribute
storage. Add the extent like functionality (framework is there,
but is currently never used).

occasionally as well.  The effects were usually harmless, it would add
bogus "binary" search directories to the places it actually looked for
files.

0c6ec4aca0 Declare time(not3) instead of depending on namespace pollution 3 layers
deep in <stand.h> to eventually include <time.h> to declare the user
version.

This is not quite the right place to declare it, but <stand.h> would
be worse because time() is very MD so it isn't in libstand.

Many places in the boot sources still get the user version using only
1 layer of pollution (#include <sys/time.h>.  Some pollute themselves
directly (#include <time.h>).  But the boot Makefiles are too broken
to enable warnings for redeclarations.

0889b9be41 - Add 'fwrite' and 'fseek' words for writing to and seeking on files.
- Change the 'fopen' keyword to accept a mode parameter.  Note that this
  will break existing 4th scripts that use fopen.  Thus, the loader
  version has been bumped and loader.4th has been changed to check for a
  sufficient version on i386 and alpha.  Be sure that you either do a full
  world build or install or full build and install of sys/boot after this
  since loader.old won't work with the new 4th files and vice versa.

2f9e4e8025 Limit the amount of KVM reserved for the buffer cache and for swap-meta
information.  The default limits only effect machines with > 1GB of ram
and can be overriden with two new kernel conf variables VM_SWZONE_SIZE_MAX
and VM_BCACHE_SIZE_MAX, or with loader variables kern.maxswzone and
kern.maxbcache.  This has the effect of leaving more KVM available for
sizing NMBCLUSTERS and 'maxusers' and should avoid tripups where a sysad
adds memory to a machine and then sees the kernel panic on boot due to
running out of KVM.

Also change the default swap-meta auto-sizing calculation to allocate half
of what it was previously allocating.  The prior defaults were way too high.
Note that we cannot afford to run out of swap-meta structures so we still
stay somewhat conservative here.

file is processed by passing its name in argv[1]:
        return(mod_loadobj(typestr, argv[1]));
however, it is not tested to see if argv[1] actually is defined.

At best, mod_loadobj() near line 244 returns an error like
"can't find 'garbage'" but if the "filename" entered is sufficiently
long, some buffer gets overrun. Of course, "load -t filename" is
actually a typo because we meant to type "load -t mfs_root filename";
nevertheless, a hung machine seems like too harsh a punishment for
such a small typo...

59549c5031 Fix autoboot. Now autoboot *always* show the correct kernel name. It
gets the name from the environment variable kernelname, which is set
when a kernel is loaded. For this reason, autoboot will _first_ try
to load a kernel, and only proceed with the wait prompt after that
succeeds. If it fails, it will abort immediately.

While I understand some may think this behavior undesirable, I think
it is, overall, the best thing to do, even if we do not consider the
aesthetic issue. Notice that anyone using the default loader.rc
already has the kernel loaded before autoboot.

On unload, unset kernelname.

Separate the code that tries to load a kernel from the list of options
to the function loadakernel(). It is used by both boot() and
autoboot().

down in is wrong in the case where the loader will boot /kernel.old.

a5686d2f66 bcache_strategy() now receives an unit number, and keep track of what
was the last unit number received. If it changes, it flushes the cache.
Add bcache_flash().

The actual fix is sligthly different from the one in the PR.

c447342094 Change #ifdef KERNEL to #ifdef _KERNEL in the public headers. "KERNEL"
is an application space macro and the applications are supposed to be free
to use it as they please (but cannot).  This is consistant with the other
BSD's who made this change quite some time ago.  More commits to come.

a031bda24e Don't build gensetdefs when we can use /usr/bin/gensetdefs. The latter
also creates setdef{0|1}.c so there's no need to have those in the
repository. Using /usr/bin/gensetdefs has no consequences for the
output.

3206c41a3c Changes the default prompt to "ok".
Mike says the whole idea of a current device was a bad idea in first place,
and will be doing away with currdev.

Anyway, people are not supposed to even notice this. :-)
