memory fault handler. IRIX uses irix_vm_fault, and all other emulation
use NULL, which means to use uvm_fault.
- While we are there, explicitely set to NULL the uninitialized fields in
struct emul: e_fault and e_sysctl on most ports
- e_fault is used by the trap handler, for now only on mips. In order to avoid
intrusive modifications in UVM, the function pointed by e_fault does not
has exactly the same protoype as uvm_fault:
int uvm_fault __P((struct vm_map *, vaddr_t, vm_fault_t, vm_prot_t));
int e_fault __P((struct proc *, vaddr_t, vm_fault_t, vm_prot_t));
- In IRIX share groups, all the VM space is shared, except one page.
This bounds us to have different VM spaces and synchronize modifications
to the VM space accross share group members. We need an IRIX specific hook
to the page fault handler in order to propagate VM space modifications
caused by page faults.
This merge changes the device switch tables from static array to
dynamically generated by config(8).
- All device switches is defined as a constant structure in device drivers.
- The new grammer ``device-major'' is introduced to ``files''.
device-major <prefix> char <num> [block <num>] [<rules>]
- All device major numbers must be listed up in port dependent majors.<arch>
by using this grammer.
- Added the new naming convention.
The name of the device switch must be <prefix>_[bc]devsw for auto-generation
of device switch tables.
- The backward compatibility of loading block/character device
switch by LKM framework is broken. This is necessary to convert
from block/character device major to device name in runtime and vice versa.
- The restriction to assign device major by LKM is completely removed.
We don't need to reserve LKM entries for dynamic loading of device switch.
- In compile time, device major numbers list is packed into the kernel and
the LKM framework will refer it to assign device major number dynamically.
* struct sigacts gets a new sigact_sigdesc structure, which has the
sigaction and the trampoline/version. Version 0 means "legacy kernel
provided trampoline". Other versions are coordinated with machine-
dependent code in libc.
* sigaction1() grows two more arguments -- the trampoline pointer and
the trampoline version.
* A new __sigaction_sigtramp() system call is provided to register a
trampoline along with a signal handler.
* The handler is no longer passed to sensig() functions. Instead,
sendsig() looks up the handler by peeking in the sigacts for the
process getting the signal (since it has to look in there for the
trampoline anyway).
* Native sendsig() functions now select the appropriate trampoline and
its arguments based on the trampoline version in the sigacts.
Changes to libc to use the new facility will be checked in later. Kernel
version not bumped; we will ride the 1.6C bump made recently.
than current one; this is expected (even documented) behaviour of the
new system call
This fixes the endless loop when reading directories on NFS, though
applications won't see all directory entries due to different problem.
Fix by Matthias Scheler and Charles Hannum.
lst_ino to __lst_ino and lst_ino64 to lst_ino, and define
LINUX_STAT64_HAS_BROKEN_ST_INO. Only assign __lst_ino if this define
is present.
This fixes compile on powerpc archs, and hence port-powerpc/16893.
host:port pair through SO_REUSEADDR even if the address is not a
multicast-address. Effectively, this means that we should use
SO_REUSEPORT when SO_REUSEADDR is set (from the linux process)
to allow Linux applications to not exit with EADDRINUSE.
(Previously erraneously applied to 1.5 branch; approved for
proper location by thorpej)
(revisions 1.47 & 1.48 effectively backed off):
* for all but vnodes, just fallback to sys_fcntl(); assumming
state of support for F_SETOWN/F_GETOWN and even hardcoding it here is
not right (e.g. rev. 1.47 had this incorrect for DTYPE_PIPE)
* fallback to sys_fcntl() also for vnodes which don't represent tty
* don't need to use FILE_{,UN}USE() here, the code won't block while
using the pointer
* add/fix some comments
- bug with order in args in mask conversion md code.
- flags can be both int and long on the alpha. kludge around that, by not
passing pointers to the conversion function.
- something is wrong with the toolchain look at the void * cast in copyout().
- sa_restorer is in a different place on the aplha. Deal with that, by not
initializing it as before. XXX: this should be changed in the MD signal
definition.
