This will allow you to compile and run a freebsd kernel with shared
memory support. I haven't tested the shm*() calls yet.
You run out of page table descriptors if you specify 4Mb of sharable
memory (SHMMAXPGS=1024). I don't know what the limit is, but
SHMMAXPGS=64 works. Rich
going to panic shortly after this anyway. Destroys less state, and
keeps the machine from waiting for someone to smash the return key
a few times before it panics!
Added support of DONET({IMP,NS,ISO}) so you can now compile with options
NS and ISO, still missing some IMP code, but since the imp is old and
gone I doubt this will ever be used.
FP and we try to call the emulator when it is not compiled in.
Removed the #if defined(i486) || defined(i387) that use to call the
panic if we did not have a math emulator.
Removed an extranious include of i386/i386/math_emu.h from math_emulate.c.
I posted some patches on the 386bsd_patchkit list to prohibit io access.
Because of a noninitialised filed in the tss, this was possible.
It is included below as the patch to machdep.c
However, when you do this *necessary* fix (security), it will be
impossible form within user space to do io.
therefor, I included another fix: when you open /dev/io, you
get the access. Of course you can rewrite it to use another minor
and thus giving access to the iospace when /dev/mem is opened, e.g.
NOTE: The /dev/io entry has not been added to /dev/MAKEDEV yet.
The patch is in NetBSD.
profiling, and various protection checks that cause security holes
and system crashes.
* Changed min/max/bcmp/ffs/strlen to be static inline functions
- included from cpufunc.h in via systm.h. This change
improves performance in many parts of the kernel - up to 5% in the
networking layer alone. Note that this requires systm.h to be included
in any file that uses these functions otherwise it won't be able to
find them during the load.
* Fixed incorrect call to splx() in if_is.c
* Fixed bogus variable assignment to splx() in if_ed.c
argument definitions outside of the function parameter list. This is
to reduce the copious warning messages that (non-Jolitz) gcc produces.
Also fixed some bogus variable declarations and casts to make the
compiler happy.
way of doing things. There still remain several drivers that need to
be updated. Also added a compile-time option to pccons to switch the
control and caps-lock keys (REVERSE_CAPS_CTRL) - added for my personal
sanity.
