use a 256 entry ring buffer of descriptersfor this purpose. This allows
the use of a simple 8bit counter in the sequencer code for tracking start
location.
Entries in the ring buffer now contain a "cmd_valid" byte at their tail.
As an entry is serviced, this byte is cleared by the kernel and set by
the sequencer during its dma of a new entry. Since this byte is the last
portion of the command touched during a dma, the kernel can use this
byte to ensure the command it processes is completely valid.
The new command format requires a fixed sized DMA from the controller
to deliver which allowed for additional simplification of the sequencer
code. The hack that required 1 SCB slot to be stolen for incoming
command delivery notification is also gone.
from an interrupt context and fsetown() wants to peek at curproc, call
malloc(..., M_WAITOK), and fiddle with various unprotected data structures.
The fix is to move the code that duplicates the F_SETOWN/FIOSETOWN state
of the original socket to the new socket from sonewconn() to accept1(),
since accept1() runs in the correct context. Deferring this until the
process calls accept() is harmless since the process can't do anything
useful with SIGIO on the new socket until it has the descriptor for that
socket.
One could make the case for not bothering to duplicate the
F_SETOWN/FIOSETOWN state and requiring the process to explicitly make the
fcntl() or ioctl() call on the new socket, but this would be incompatible
with the previous implementation and might break programs which rely on
the old semantics.

interrupt handlers. Instead, load and use it atomically as necessary.
This reduces mode switching overhead for "polled" mode interrupt handling
from 5 i/o's to 3 (per service type, per port) so that polled mode is only
slightly more inefficient than "interrupt" mode.
UARTs when their divisor latch registers are selected while they are
doing output. Waiting for (some) output to drain is not permitted for
the TCSANOW case of tcsetattr(). NIST-PCTS easily detects bugs like
this by testing at at speeds that no one would want to use (50 bps).
Deleted stale comments related to flushing i/o. Flushing works properly
for 16550s according to NIST-PCTS (it can't work properly for 16450s).
This finishes fixing all sio(16550)-related bugs found by NIST-PCTS.
Many (mostly machine-dependent ones) are still missing. NIST-PCTS found
this bug for all the ioctls used to implement the POSIX tc* functions
(TIOCCBRK, TIOCDRAIN, TIOCSPGRP, TIOCSBRK, TIOCSTART and TIOCSTOP), and
I found FIOASYNC, TIOCCONS, TIOCEXCL, TIOCHPCL, TIOCNXCL, TIOCSCTTY and
TIOCSDRAINWAIT by inspection. TIOCSPGRP was ifdefed out for some reason.
Handle tcsetattr()'s historical speed conversions correctly and more
centrally:
- don't store speeds of 0 in the final termios struct. Drivers can now
depend on tp->t_ispeed and tp->t_ospeed giving the actual speed.
Applications can now depend on tcgetattr() being POSIX.1 conformant.
- convert from a proposed input speed of 0 to the proposed output speed
(except if that is 0, convert to the current output speed). Drivers
can now depend on the proposed input speed being nonzero.
- don't reject negative speeds. Negative speeds can't happen now that
speed_t is unsigned, and rejecting invalid speeds is a bug - tcsetattr()
is supposed to succeed if it can "perform any of the requested actions",
so it shouldn't fail in practice.
because libpam is built shared only. There is a way to build PAM
into a static library that contains all (or a selected subset) of
the modules. But our Makefiles don't support that yet. Until I get
that working, just force NOSHARED=no in login's Makefile. Of
course, it still won't work if NOPIC is set.

Change login to use PAM for authentication. I kept the built-in

be committed later today. The format of the file is described in
pam(8).
This sample file makes login behave in the traditional way. To
wit, it enables authentication via S/Key and passwd/NIS lookups.
KerberosIV authentication is present in the sample file but commented
out.
As a safety net and a transition aid, login will fall back on
built-in passwd/NIS authentication if this configuration file is
missing or if some other fatal PAM error occurs.
This file will eventually replace "/etc/auth.conf", but not until

the first time block 0 is read. This fix initialises the block
numbers to -1 which isn't the most correct thing for a daddr_t but
it isn't likely to cause a problem in the boot blocks and it could
do with a more thought out fix later.
The bug is probably benign on the i386 but on the alpha it can
cause initial file opens to fail. This is the cause of the "can't
open /boot/boot.conf" errors.
It appears on the alpha because of a number of combining factors.
On the alpha the LABELSECTOR is 0 so block 0 needs to be read in
from the media. The first time this happens you get a false hit
because the bc_blkno field is zero initially. Also, the timestamp
check against this cache hit succeeds because on the alpha a hacked
getsecs() function can return 0 when it starts counting so that
the zero initial timestamp + BCACHE_TIMEOUT is greater than the
current time until getsecs() has counted passed BCACHE_TIMEOUT.
The overall effect is that the first open() that occurs gets a
false cache hit and returns garbage to the bd_strategy() function
which then fails the open() call. This false hit then stays in the
cache until BCACHE_TIMEOUT getsecs() ticks have passed; all open()
calls during this time fail.
This explains why you can generally access the media by the time
you get to interp() and start issuing commands but the earlier
attempts to run the boot scripts are failing.
It's possible that this is causing the problem switching to the
mfsroot floppy as well but I haven't confirmed that.

This case apparently doesn't happen in normal operation, but it

hogging application that hasn't already been paged out.
