convert several raidframe ioctls to be bitsize idempotent so that
they work the same in 32 and 64 bit worlds, allowing netbsd32 to
configure and query raid properly. remove useless 'row' in a few
places. add COMPAT_80 and put the old ioctls there.
raidframeio.h:
RAIDFRAME_TEST_ACC
- remove, unused
RAIDFRAME_GET_COMPONENT_LABEL
- convert to label not pointer to label
RAIDFRAME_CHECK_RECON_STATUS_EXT
RAIDFRAME_CHECK_PARITYREWRITE_STATUS_EXT
RAIDFRAME_CHECK_COPYBACK_STATUS_EXT
- convert to progress info not pointer to info
RAIDFRAME_GET_INFO
- version entirely.
raidframevar.h:
- rf_recon_req{} has row, flags and raidPtr removed (they're
not a useful part of this interface.)
- RF_Config_s{} and RF_DeviceConfig_s{} have numRow/rows removed.
- RF_RaidDisk_s{} is re-ordered slightly to fix alignment
padding - the actual data was already OK.
- InstallSpareTable() loses row argument
rf_compat32.c has code for RF_Config_s{} in 32 bit mode, used
by RAIDFRAME_CONFIGURE and RAIDFRAME_GET_INFO32.
rf_compat80.c has code for rf_recon_req{}, RF_RaidDisk_s{} and
RF_DeviceConfig_s{} to handle RAIDFRAME_FAIL_DISK,
RAIDFRAME_GET_COMPONENT_LABEL, RAIDFRAME_CHECK_RECON_STATUS_EXT,
RAIDFRAME_CHECK_PARITYREWRITE_STATUS_EXT,
RAIDFRAME_CHECK_COPYBACK_STATUS_EXT, RAIDFRAME_GET_INFO.
move several of the per-ioctl code blocks into separate functions.
add rf_recon_req_internal{} to replace old usage of global
rf_recon_req{} that had unused void * in the structure, ruining
it's 32/64 bit ABI.
add missing case for RAIDFRAME_GET_INFO50.
adjust raid tests to use the new .conf format, and add a case to
test the old method as well.
raidctl:
deal with lack of 'row' members in a couple of places.
fail request no longer takes row.
handle "START array" sections with just "numCol numSpare", ie
no "numRow" specified. for now, generate old-style configuration
but update raidctl.8 to specify the new style (keeping reference
to the old style.)
note that: RF_ComponentLabel_s::{row,num_rows} and
RF_SingleComponent_s::row are obsolete but not removed yet.
are arrays, not pointers, so don't use copyoutstr on them, but instead
copyin/copyout the whole array of structures.
Fixes PR 52864 for me (on sparc64).
gif(4), stf(4), and ipsec(4). Without this, loading the if_gif
module can result in redefined global symbols if either ipsec(4) or
stf(4) but not gif(4) is built into the kernel.
Fixes PR kern/52795 (as reported by martin@ via irc).
XXX pullup to netbsd-8
This is a legacy interface from 4.4BSD, and it was
introduced to overcome shortcomings of ptrace(2) at that time, which are
no longer relevant (performance). Today /proc/#/ctl offers a narrow
subset of ptrace(2) commands and is not applicable for modern
applications use beyond simplistic tracing scenarios.
This removal will simplify kernel internals. Users will still be able to
use all the other /proc files.
This change won't affect other procfs files neither Linux compat
features within mount_procfs(8). /proc/#/ctl isn't available on Linux.
Remove:
- /proc/#/ctl from mount_procfs(8)
- P_FSTRACE note from the documentation of ps(1)
- /proc/#/ctl and filesystem tracing documentation from mount_procfs(8)
- KAUTH_REQ_PROCESS_PROCFS_CTL documentation from kauth(9)
- source code file miscfs/procfs/procfs_ctl.c
- PFSctl and procfs_doctl() from sys/miscfs/procfs/procfs.h
- KAUTH_REQ_PROCESS_PROCFS_CTL from sys/sys/kauth.h
- PSL_FSTRACE (0x00010000) from sys/sys/proc.h
- P_FSTRACE (0x00010000) from sys/sys/sysctl.h
Reduce code complexity after removal of this functionality.
Update TODO.ptrace accordingly: remove two entries about /proc tracing.
Do not keep legacy notes as comments in the headers about removed
PSL_FSTRACE / P_FSTRACE, as this interface had little number of users
(close or equal to zero).
Proposed on tech-kern@.
All filesystem tracing utility users are encouraged to switch to ptrace(2).

out that compat_ibcs2 does not implement the iBCS2 standard - which is
x86-specific - but rather SVR3. Our real iBCS2 implementation was a
mixture of compat_ibcs2 and compat_svr4, and was only partial. Keeping
support for this in i386 is totally irrelevant today. I also asked on
port-i386 but didn't wait long.
The main issue is that compat_ibcs2 should have been called compat_svr3.
But CVS does not support renaming files, and moving things around is both
painful and tiring, even more so when no one seems to be interested in
doing this work or in the feature at all. For now compat_ibcs2 is available
on Vax and will stay, until someone (not me) cleans it up.
Unclear why we have a separate xyz.ioconf for module and XYZ.ioconf
for rump component, but at least xyz_modcmd obviates the need for
xyz_component.c (though evidently the latter could have been replaced
anyway by RUMP_COMPONENT=ioconf in the rump component Makefile).
This example presents a C module with its device (/dev entry) and its
content generator with algorithm defined in Lua state. The Lua state can
be changed dynamically from userland, without interruption of read(2) over
the device.
This is an example how to call Lua code from C.
