or a partition is larger than the slice.
Now `disklabel -Brw sdX auto' should fail properly on sliced disks
without partition of type 165, e.g., on zip disks with the factory
default formatting. Previously it set a bogus in-core label for
the compatibility slice and used this to corrupt the MBR (the slice
has offset 0 and size 0, but setting the label in effect corrupted
its size to nonzero).
`disklabel -Brw sdX auto' already failed properly on normally (not
dangerously dedicated) sliced disks _with_ partition of type 165,
because the compatibility slice has a nonzero offset so the MBR
remained inaccessible when the size was corrupted.
This bug only affected in-core labels. On-disk labels are checked
carefully when they read and written.
Hide the bogus FDC ``chip type'' display behind a (mostly) undocumented
option, since people started to trust the bogus claim. Once we're going
to handle 2.88 MB controllers, we have to redo the chip detection, by
now just leave it hidden.
A couple of stylistic nits from Bruce.
If your libc contains version 1.11 or 1.12 of getcwd.c, (ie: if
you recompiled libc one of the last couple of days):

A new libc will deal with both old and new kernels.

We aren't sure if this new code and the old sound code will co-exist in a
kernel, so the device pcm0 line is left commented out in LINT.

While i was at it, also fixed a broken return value for the VT_RELDISP
ioctl, iff the third arg was legally VT_TRUE, but the destination
screen was in process mode so the actual switch had to be deferred.
This was breaking the ability to directly toggle between two X servers
running on two VTs, since the server getting the bogus error return
was running wild, and competing with the other one for the hardware.
(Sigh, this was a very long-standing bug.)
adapted from NetBSD.. However, there are some differences in the tty
system that are big enough to cause their code to not fit comfortably.

detail is passed back and forwards). This mostly came from NetBSD, except
that our interfaces have changed a lot and this funciton is in a different
part of the kernel.

The implementation is done (unlike what i've originally been
contemplating) by reparenting kids of processes that have the
appropriate bit set to PID 1, and let PID 1 handle the zombie. This
is far less problematical than what would seem to be ``doing it
right'', for a number of reasons.
Of our currently shipping PID-1-intended programs, 50 % fail the above
assumption. ;-) (Read this: sysinstall doesn't do it right. This is
no problem as long as no program called by sysinstall actually uses
SA_NOCLDWAIT.)
ToDo: . clarify the correct SA_* flag inheritance, compared
to other systems,
. decide whether the compat cruft (osigvec(9)) should
deal with new system additions or not,
. merge OpenBSD's SA_SIGINFO implementation. ;)
