Use rpcgen's -C option, although using it for non-headers breaks K&R
support. A local copy of yp.h is built to avoid adding
-I/usr/include/rpcsvc to CFLAGS. This version of yp.h differed from
<rpcsvc/yp.h> only in not declaring prototypes.
Fixed style bugs.
but also assumes that they are 32-bits. This is one place where I don't
think it is appropriate to change 'long' to 'int'. I don't see why the
code couldn't be fixed so that using natural long variables does the
right thing. It's spaggetti code so it'll take some effort. Obviously
NetBSD thought so too because they change 'long' to 'int32_t' etc
and left it at that. As a temporary measure FreeBSD/Alpha can use the
NetBSD code and put this on the list of things to fix.
in termios.h, but it's prototype in termcap.h and the main file use
the underlying definition (which is now an int, not a long for
compatibility with NetBSD). Really termcap.h should use speed_t too,
but I guess that this might break sources that don't include termios.h
first.
One bug was relatively harmless (select's timeout had an uninitialized
tv_usec), the other I'm not so sure.. (neglected to catch select returns
less than zero). Both of these were irrelevant on kernels with poll().
chunks of res_comp.c and replacing it with chunks of bind-8.1.1's resolver
code. (There are no interface changes though)
The other parts are better bounds checking related.
default syscall asm, so add it to NOASM. The other syscalls that manipulate
kernel threads use the default asm code, so they just get built
automatically.
file works with libpthread, but when built into libc_r which has a non-weak
symbol of the same name, the linker behaves unpredicatably and sometimes
links the wrong symbol. The linker behaviour is a byproduct of what
the program calls from object to object so it is like winning a lottery
if the program actually works. The odds are quite good - 95:1, I think.
We need a sure thing, though, so weak symbols can't be used instead
of renaming things.
of the one in libc that contains the weak symbol for __error. FreeBSD's
make accumulates paths to the point that it can find *anything*, possibly
including the car keys.
for the process, not a separate set for each thread). By default, the
process now only has signal handlers installed for SIGVTALRM, SIGINFO
and SIGCHLD. The thread kernel signal handler is installed for other
signals on demand. This means that SIG_IGN and SIG_DFL processing is now
left to the kernel, not the thread kernel.
Change the signal dispatch to no longer use a signal thread, and
call the signal handler using the stack of the thread that has the
signal pending.
Change the atomic lock method to use test-and-set asm code with
a yield if blocked. This introduces separate locks for each type
of object instead of blocking signals to prevent a context
switch. It was this blocking of signals that caused the performance
degradation the people have noted.
This is a *big* change!
