- Re-arrange et_loadmode() and et_inittextmode() to write into shadow
register set instead of writing to the card-registers directly.
- provide et_hwsave()/et_hwrest() functions to transfer the card-registers
to and from the shadow set.
Fix a bug in fsck_ffs where if a directory somehow develops a hole
(that is a block pointer that has a value of zero), fsck would give the
filesystem a clean bill of health, but the kernel would panic when
accessing the directory with the hole. Fsck now checks for holes
in directories. If found in preen mode, fsck fails. In manual
mode, it can be directed to shorten the directory to the beginning of
the hole. A more complete solution would be to allocate a block to fill
the hole. However, this is a lot more work for a `cannot happen' error,
so the extra effort seems unwarranted.
ELF_ROUND (round to higher alignment boundary), and use them properly.
Also, change a bit of code in elf_load_psection to use the next ELF_ROUND
macro. This fixes a bug found by Robert Baron <rvb+@cs.cmu.edu> where
elf_load_psection, if given a properly aligned address at which to load
the section, would round actually load it at the next highest alignment
boundary.
Scenario: If ip_insertoptions() prepends a new mbuf to the chain, the
bad: label's m_freem(m0) still would free only the original mbuf chain
if the transmission failed for, e.g., no route to host; resulting in
one lost mbuf per failed packet. (The original posting included a
demonstration program).
Original report of this bug was by jinmei@isl.rdc.toshiba.co.jp
(JINMEI Tatuya) on comp.bugs.4bsd.
the __strerror() and __strsignal() functions can not assume that the
messages will not overflow a NL_TEXTSIZE-sized buffer.
