probed in sysinstall. Rather than make template devices and use up lots
of inodes, also restricting the number of devices that can be dealt with,
mknod all necessary devices as necessary using built-in information.
This removes a number of constraints on the number and type of devices
that sysinstall can see.
was supplied to the kernel when booting, ignore any 'quit' commands in the
userconfig script.
This provides an escape mechanism whereby a broken userconfig script may
be worked around.
1) Resulting special files now in group operator. (Reviewed by bde)
2) Use $disk_umask when creating ccd device specials. (Suggested by
bde)
3) No longer create rccd{n}.ctl; ccd's are not necessarily scsi.
(Suggested by bde)
4) No need to split short lines. (Suggested by bde)
into libc. This reduces the size of every dynamically linked
executable by 248 bytes, and it reduces the size of static executables
by a lesser amount. It also eliminates some global namespace
pollution.
With this change in place, the source for dlfcn.h should probably
be moved to "/usr/src/include". I'll save that for another day.
Compatibility note: Programs which use dlopen, if compiled on
systems with this change, will not run on systems with a libc from
prior to this change. Very few programs use dlopen, so I think
that is OK.
Document `make readmes'. This is getting old, and the intent is to
stop questions regarding it; however, I have a suspicion documenting it
will work counter to ending questions about it and am mentally prepared
to see it go-ooooooooo.......
waslocked = TRUE. This change may fix lockmgr panic in umapfs/nullfs.

I've worked to enhance the connect() patches.
I've just tested this with the Linux JDK appletviewer on an applet
that does a lot of connects, and it works as well as during my
previous tests.
The connect() patch is now a merge between my older patch and the
OpenBSD stuff. It ensures that any async error is returned by
connect() instead of getsockopt(SOL_SOCKET, SO_ERROR) as reasonnable
systems do.
There are also minor patches to implement IPPROTO_TCP for
get/setsocktopt(). These are also tested (with Linux Apache).

I would appreciate any feedback regarding these changes, as they'd
be very useful in 2.2.6.

urgent need is when you run sh around a program that intentionally
uses SIGQUIT/SIGINT for asynchronous events, i.e. $EDITOR started from
system(2), like many mailers do. This fixes PR bin/1206 and possibly
bin/4241.
The solution committed has been tested for a large number of possible
cases (see recent discussion on cvs-committers). I completed a make
world, made sure 'make world' is interruptable and used the changed
/bin/sh as a login shell all day, including job control and using
SIGQUIT-catching programs (to write this message :-).
