from struct proc, which are now unused (p_nthread already was).
Remove process flag P_KTHREADP which was untested and only set
in vfs_aio.c (it should use kthread_create). Move the yield
system call to kern_synch.c as kern_threads.c has been removed
completely.
moral support from: alfred, jhb
gcc's internal exit() prototypes and the (futile) hackery that we did to
try and avoid warnings. main() was renamed for similar reasons.
Remove an exit related hack from makesyscalls.sh.
type. This gave an inconsistent amount of crufty padding on i386's with
64-bit longs (8 bytes instead of 4). On alphas it gives a consistent
amount of crufty padding (8 bytes) in addition to the 4 bytes of normal
padding caused by passing int args as register_t's.
Fixed the args struct tag for the NOPROTO syscalls (netbsd_lchown() and
netbsd_msync()). The tag is currently unused for NOPROTO syscalls, so
the bug has no effect, but it will be used even in the NOPROTO case to
calculate sy_nargs correctly.
my tree for ages (~2 years) waiting for an excuse to commit it. Now Linux
has implemented it and it seems that Staroffice (when using the
linux_base6.1 port's libc) calls this in the linux emulator and dies in
setup. The Linux emulator can call these now.
Make gratuitous style(9) fixes (me, not the submitter) to make the aio
code more readable.

-----------------------------
Rename sigaction, sigprocmask, sigpending and sigsuspend to
osigaction, osigprocmask, osigpending and osigsuspend (resp)
and add new syscalls for them to support the new sisgset_t
without breaking existing binaries.
Change the prototype of sigaltstack to use the typedef stack_t
instead of struct sigaltstack to reflect that it is SUSv2
compliant.
Also, rename sigreturn to osigreturn and add a new syscall
to support the modified stackframe. The change is caused by
sigreturn operating on ucontext_t now and the fact that
siginfo_t has been updated to conform to SUSv2.
Changed to `const void *'. utrace() is undocumented, so nothing should
notice.
Fixed missing consts for utrace() and ktrace() in syscalls.master.
sys/ktrace.h is missing some Lite2 changes of shorts to ints.
NetBSD compatible.
Add parameter to fo_read and fo_write. (The only flag FOF_OFFSET mean that
the offset is set in the struct uio).
Factor out some common code from read/pread/write/pwrite syscalls.
linker. This is intended to replace kvm_mkdb etc. The first version
only does name->value lookups, but it's open ended. value->name lookups
would probably be a good thing to do too.
It's been suggested to try and connect the symbol tables to sysctl (which
is probably a more flexible way of doing it if it's done right), but that
is far more complex and difficult than I was ready to have a shot at.
file to a stream socket. sendfile(2) is similar to implementations in
HP-UX, Linux, and other systems, but the API is more extensive and
addresses many of the complaints that the Apache Group and others have
had with those other implementations. Thanks to Marc Slemko of the
Apache Group for helping me work out the best API for this.
Anyway, this has the "net" result of speeding up sends of files over
TCP/IP sockets by about 10X (that is to say, uses 1/10th of the CPU
cycles) when compared to a traditional read/write loop.
FreeBSD/alpha. The most significant item is to change the command
argument to ioctl functions from int to u_long. This change brings us
inline with various other BSD versions. Driver writers may like to
use (__FreeBSD_version == 300003) to detect this change.
The prototype FreeBSD/alpha machdep will follow in a couple of days
time.
the only common usage of utrace (the possible problem with this
commit) is with malloc, so this should be a real problem. Add
the various NetBSD syscalls that allow full emulation of their
development environment.
_KPOSIX_PRIORITY_SCHEDULING options to work. Changes:
Change all "posix4" to "p1003_1b". Misnamed files are left
as "posix4" until I'm told if I can simply delete them and add
new ones;
Add _POSIX_PRIORITY_SCHEDULING system calls for FreeBSD and Linux;
Add man pages for _POSIX_PRIORITY_SCHEDULING system calls;
Add options to LINT;
Minor fixes to P1003_1B code during testing.
If you want to play with it, you can find the final version of the
code in the repository the tag LFS_RETIREMENT.
If somebody makes LFS work again, adding it back is certainly
desireable, but as it is now nobody seems to care much about it,
and it has suffered considerable bitrot since its somewhat haphazard
integration.
R.I.P
This introduce an xxxFS_BOOT for each of the rootable filesystems.
(Presently not required, but encouraged to allow a smooth move of option *FS
to opt_dontuse.h later.)
LFS is temporarily disabled, and will be re-enabled tomorrow.
