add a new option flag "-d", which enables debugging output. Compile all
of the code that used to be enabled with -DDEBUG unconditionally. The
amount of extra code is negligable, and all of the tests to check if
debugging is enabled were done regardless of -DDEBUG anyway. Adjust
SYSLOG() to DTRT if debugging is not enabled.
translated geometry of the disk. This code will only change the
disk geometry if it can find a geometry which is consistent with
all partition entries, so it's very conservative about choosing
a new disk geometry. Under some circumstances, it will choose a
number of cylinders which is a little lower than it needs to be,
but this code is enough so that you can create new partitions
with the correct physical addresses.
The right solution to this problem is to have the boot loader
communicate the BIOS geometry of each disk to the kernel, in a
manner similar to the symbol table, and then provide a kernel
interface to get at that information. I'm unfortunately not
really qualified to make such a change, and I want something
that works better than the status quo.
the boot image information. For some reason, a lseek and write of
just the image information scrambled the disklabel. Since we have
a copy of the entire first 1k, just write it.
differently he did. (1) don't assume that the timeval in
the packet is correctly aligned, (2) don't compare beyond the end
of the packet, (3) minor cast for printf happiness.
works again. solves pr 1257, but sets dumpsize earlier than suggested
in that pr, so that dumpsize is set if a core doesn't appear to be
present (because dumpsize would be used if the '-f' flag is given).
types. when using mount(8) with '-a', do _NOT_ remount file systems
that have been mounted once already. (This cannot be 100% precisely
determined (thanks to mfs, union fs, and similar file systems which
don't use a 'real' mounted-from node), and changed options cannot be updated
with mount -a. however, options wouldn't be updated with the old mount -a
anyway, and this solves several annoyances.
