looking at a high resolution clock for each of the following events:
function call, function return, interrupt entry, interrupt exit,
and interesting branches. The differences between the times of
these events are added at appropriate places in a ordinary histogram
(as if very fast statistical profiling sampled the pc at those
places) so that ordinary gprof can be used to analyze the times.
gmon.h:
Histogram counters need to be 4 bytes for microsecond resolutions.
They will need to be larger for the 586 clock.
The comments were vax-centric and wrong even on vaxes. Does anyone
disagree?
gprof4.c:
The standard gprof should support counters of all integral sizes
and the size of the counter should be in the gmon header. This
hack will do until then. (Use gprof4 -u to examine the results
of non-statistical profiling.)
config/*:
Non-statistical profiling is configured with `config -pp'.
`config -p' still gives ordinary profiling.
kgmon/*:
Non-statistical profiling is enabled with `kgmon -B'. `kgmon -b'
still enables ordinary profiling (and distables non-statistical
profiling) if non-statistical profiling is configured.
is really necessary. Going backwards on a P6 is much slower than forwards
and it's a little slower on a P5. Also moved the count mask and 'std'
down a few lines - it's a couple percent faster this way on a P5.
replace the dozen other various hacks in the code that do all sorts
of crude things including spamming the envrionment strings with the new
argv string.
This version is mainly inspired by the sendmail version, with a couple of
ideas taken from the NetBSD implementation as well.
XDR routines auto-generated by rpcgen don't quite match the format of
the original ones even though tey have the same names (that was one of
the things wrong with the old XDR routines).
rpcgen-erated on the fly (just like librpcsvc).
Makefile: Add rule for generating yp_xdr.c and yp.h.
xdryp.c: gut everything except the special ypresp_all XDR function
needed to to handle yp_all() (this one can't be created on
the fly), and xdr_datum(), which isn't used internally by
libc, but which as documented as being there in yp_prot.h,
so what the hell. We now get everything else from yp_xdr.c.
yplib.c: change a few structure member names to match those found in
yp.h instead of those declared in yp_prot.h.
via mmap() up around the shared library area. Previously the directory
was allocated from space from it's own memory pool. Because of the way it
was being extended on processes with large malloced data segments (ie: inn)
once the page directory was extended for some reason, it was not possible
to lower the heap size any more to return pages to the OS.
(If my understanding is correct, page directory expansion occurs at 4MB,
12MB, 20MB, 28MB, etc.) I was seeing INN allocate a large amount of short
term memory, pushing it over the 28MB mark, and once it's transient demands
hit 28MB, it never freed it's pages and swap space again.)
I've been running this in my libc for about a month...
Also, seperate MALLOC_STATS from EXTRA_SANITY.. I found it useful to call
malloc_dump() from within INN from a ctlinnd command to see where the hell
all the memory was going.. :-) I've left MALLOC_STATS enabled, as it has
no run-time or data storage cost.

this before 'ps'), but the dynamic linked stuff should be OK (ie: 'w')

in particular circumstances. (malloc() does not zero memory, but usually
does by coincidenct that sbrk() returns zeroed pages)

it before before trying to establish a binding. If /var/run/ypbind.lock
doesn't exist, or if it exists and isn't locked, then ypbind isn't
running, which means NIS is either turned off or hosed.
- Have _yp_check() call yp_unbind() after it sucessfully calls yp_bind()
to make sure it frees resources correctly. (I don't think there's really
a memory leak here, but it seems somehow wrong to call yp_bind() without
making a corresponding call to yp_unbind() afterwards.)
This makes the NIS code behave a little better in cases where libc makes
calls to NIS, but it isn't running correctly (i.e. there's no ypbind).
This cleans up some strange libc behavior that manifests itself if
you have the system domain name set, but aren't actually running NIS.
In this event, the getrpcent(3) code could try to call into NIS and
cause several inexplicable "clnttcp_create error: RPC program not
registered" messages to appear. This happens because _yp_check() checks
if the system domain name is set and, if it is, proceeds to call
yp_bind() to attempt to establish a binding. Since there is no
binding file (remember: ypbind isn't running, so /var/yp/binding
will be empty), _yp_dobind() will attempt to contact ypbind to
prod it into binding the domain. And because ypbind isn't running,
the code generates the 'clnttcp_create' error. Ultimately the
_yp_check() fails and the getrpcent(3) code rolls over to the /etc/rpc
file, but the error messages are annoying, and the code should be
smart enough to forgo the binding attempt when NIS is turned off.
both call getservent() to do most of the work, so we only need to modify
this file to take care of everybody).
Note that there is only one NIS services map (services.byname) even
though there are getservbyname() and getservbyport() library functions.

This is a bulk mport of Mike's IPX/SPX protocol stacks and all the
related gunf that goes with it..
it is not guaranteed to work 100% correctly at this time
but as we had several people trying to work on it
I figured it would be better to get it checked in so
they could all get teh same thing to work on..
Mikes been using it for a year or so
but on 2.0
more changes and stuff will be merged in from other developers now that this is in.
