"KERN_SYSVIPC_SEM_INFO" and "KERN_SYSVIPC_SHM_INFO" to return the
info and data structures for the relevent SysV IPC types. The return
structures use fixed-size types and should be compat32 safe. All
user-visible changes are protected with
#if !defined(_POSIX_C_SOURCE) && !defined(_XOPEN_SOURCE)
Make all variable declarations extern in msg.h, sem.h and shm.h and
add relevent variable declarations to sysv_*.c and remove unneeded
header files from those .c files.
Make compat14 SysV IPC conversion functions and sysctl_file() static.
Change the data pointer to "void *" in sysctl_clockrate(),
sysctl_ntptime(), sysctl_file() and sysctl_doeproc().
doing a cpu_set_kpc(), just pass the entry point and argument all
the way down the fork path starting with fork1(). In order to
avoid special-casing the normal fork in every cpu_fork(), MI code
passes down child_return() and the child process pointer explicitly.
This fixes a race condition on multiprocessor systems; a CPU could
grab the newly created processes (which has been placed on a run queue)
before cpu_set_kpc() would be performed.
- Change ktrace interface to pass in the current process, rather than
p->p_tracep, since the various ktr* function need curproc anyway.
- Add curproc as a parameter to mi_switch() since all callers had it
handy anyway.
- Add a second proc argument for inferior() since callers all had
curproc handy.
Also, miscellaneous cleanups in ktrace:
- ktrace now always uses file-based, rather than vnode-based I/O
(simplifies, increases type safety); eliminate KTRFLAG_FD & KTRFAC_FD.
Do non-blocking I/O, and yield a finite number of times when receiving
EWOULDBLOCK before giving up.
- move code duplicated between sys_fktrace and sys_ktrace into ktrace_common.
- simplify interface to ktrwrite()
so conditionalized is already conditionalized on (NWSDISPLAY > 0),
so is wscons-specific. wscons has no conditionalization on XSERVER;
neither should the linux compatibility code.
Removing this is necessary to keep linux X server emulation functionining
after GENERIC rev 1.337 removing "options XSERVER" (relegating it
to the pccons/pcvt-specific, and therefore depricated).
reality - adjust and fill in "version" the same way that some other
compat routines do. An Ultrix "uname -a" returns something meaninful
now instead of just "NetBSD ".
* Remove the casts to vaddr_t from the round_page() and trunc_page() macros to
make them type-generic, which is necessary i.e. to operate on file offsets
without truncating them.
* In due course, cast pointer arguments to these macros to an appropriate
integral type (paddr_t, vaddr_t).
Originally done by Chuck Silvers, updated by myself.
timeout()/untimeout() API:
- Clients supply callout handle storage, thus eliminating problems of
resource allocation.
- Insertion and removal of callouts is constant time, important as
this facility is used quite a lot in the kernel.
The old timeout()/untimeout() API has been removed from the kernel.
