uhci_check_intr() routine needs to be more careful about deciding when
the end of a transfer has been detected.
This allows me to remove the nasty workaround code from if_aue and if_cue.
Receive performance is now much better for these adapters (500KB/sec
vs. 350KB/sec).
Also removed unused KUE_CUTOFF define from if_kuereg.h.

just use _foo() <-- foo(). In the case of a libpthread that doesn't do
call conversion (such as linuxthreads and our upcoming libpthread), this
is adequate. In the case of libc_r, we still need three names, which are
now _thread_sys_foo() <-- _foo() <-- foo().
Convert all internal libc usage of: aio_suspend(), close(), fsync(), msync(),
nanosleep(), open(), fcntl(), read(), and write() to _foo() instead of foo().
Remove all internal libc usage of: creat(), pause(), sleep(), system(),
tcdrain(), wait(), and waitpid().
Make thread cancellation fully POSIX-compliant.

kernel debugger in the corresponding mode. This mechanism has proven
very useful at Whistle for setting breakpoints, etc., while doing
remote serial line kernel debugging.

- Fix btxldr to preserve a NULL bootinfo pointer when it copies the kernel
arguments.
- Add the cdldr bootstrap program. This program is tacked onto the
beginning of the standard 3rd stage boot loader (/boot/loader) to form
the CD boot loader (/boot/cdboot). When a CD is booted, the cdboot file
is copied into memory instead and executed. The cdldr stub emulates the
environment normally provided by boot2 and then starts the loader. This
booting method does not emulate a floppy drive, but boots directly off of
the CD. This should fix the problems some BIOS's have with emulating a
2.88 MB floppy image.
- Add support to the loader to recognize that it has been booted by cdldr
instead of boot2 and use a simpler method of extracting the BIOS boot
device.
string to u_long and back using two functions, flags_to_string and
string_to_flags, which co-existed with 'ls'. As time has progressed
more and more other tools have used these private functions to
manipulate the file flags.
Recently I moved these functions from /usr/src/bin/ls to libutil,
but after some discussion with bde it's been decided that they
really ought to go in libc.
There are two already existing libc functions for manipulating file
modes: setmode and getmode. In keeping with these flags_to_string
has been renamed getflags and string_to_flags to setflags.
The manual page could probably be improved upon ;)
of %cr0 wasn't reloaded into %eax before being modified to turn protected
mode off if PAGING was not defined. The result was that the processor did
not exit protected mode, so when it tried to jump to segment 0x0 in the
next instruction to clear the prefetch cache like one should when leaving
protected mode, it actually tried to jump to a null selector, causing a
GPF.
page of -mdoc manual pages in troff mode. The problem has been
introduced in rev 1.12; apparently ending a line inside a macro
definition with \c doesn't behave as Bill expected, and troff was
fooled to believe previous output was already pending thus a new page
needed to be emitted. Using a troff comment .\" instead of \c seems
to solve this, alas the brain^Wnice sed(1) magic needs to be taught to
_not_ strip those comments now.
I think -stable is not affected by this.
o Do not override `environ' if realloc() fails, leave it intact.
o Set `alloced' only when memory is actually allocated.

Using recursion to traverse the recursive data structure for extended
partitions was never good, but when slice support was implemented in
1995, the recursion worked for the default maximum number of slices
(32), and standard fdisk utilities didn't support creating more than
the default number. Even then, corrupt extended partitions could
cause endless recursion, because we attempt to check all slices, even
ones which we don't turn into devices.
The recursion has succumbed to creeping features. The stack requirements
for each level had grown to 204 bytes on i386's. Most of the growth was
caused by adding a 64-byte copy of the DOSpartition table to each frame.
The kernel stack size has shrunk to about 5K on i386's. Most of the
shrinkage was caused by the growth of `struct sigacts' by 2388 bytes
to support 128 signals.
Linux fdisk (a 1997 version at least) can now create 60 slices (4 standard
ones, 56 for logical drives within extended partitions, and it seems to
be leaving room to map the 4 BSD partitions on my test drive), and Linux
(2.2.29 and 2.3.35 at least) now reports all these slices at boot time.
The fix limits the recursion to 16 levels (4 + 16 slices) and recovers
32 bytes per level caused by gcc pessimizing for space. Switching to
a static buffer doesn't cause any problems due to recursion, since the
buffer is not passed down. Using a static buffer is wrong in general
because it requires the giant lock to protect it. However, this problem
is small compared with using a static buffer for dsname(). We sometimes
neglect to copy the result of dsname() before sleeping.
Also fixed slice names when we find more than MAX_SLICES (32) slices.
The number of the last slice found was not passed passed recursively.
The limit on the recursion now prevents finding more than 32 slices
with a standard extended partition data structure anyway.
