private area called PRDA that remains unshared. We implement this by using
different vmspace for each share group member, and keeping the memory
appings in sync on each mmap/munmap/mprotect/break...
We use irix_saddr_sync_vmcmd and irix_saddr_sync_syscall to apply a
vmcmd or a syscall to all share group member, this makes the job a bit
easier.
Also implements {get|set}rlimit{64}.
return the number of processes waiting on the semaphore. We now maintiain
a count of waiting processes.
- Blocked processes are unblocked "first in, first out". We now have a
queue of waiting processes on a asemaphores, so that we can wakeup the
first blocked process.
Problems:
- We now have a lot of dynamic memory allocation, it may be a bit slow.
- Nothing is SMP safe for now. We need to add locks.
- On close, we forget about a semaphore, which is incorrect. One process
can close its fd attached on a semaphore, but other processes would carry
on using it. Since any process can join a shared arena, this is not an
easy thing to solve.
- A lot of usema/usync functionnalities are still to be discovered.
- initial support for MAP_AUTOGROW flag. When mapping beyond the end of file is
requested with MAP_AUTOGROW, if pages beyond the end of file are touched, the
file should be resized. We are not able to emulate this yet, so we immediatly
resize the file to fit the whole mapping.
- implements mmap64
makes X11 binaries able to actually work: most of them were previously hang
in infinite loop wiaiting for data from the X server because SIOCNREAD
reported that some data where to be read whereas the X server had nothing
to say.
Tested (and works): xlogo, xterm, ghostview (IRIX build). Things are getting
interesting...
Service happy. Code in libc attempts to open files in the ns filesystem, and
then uses getmountid on failure to ensure that the ns filesystem is really
mounted. We don't emulate the ns filesystem yet, but getmountid now correctly
reports that ns is not present.
Note: It seems that the mountid of the ns filesystem should always be
00000005 00000000 00000000 7fff3000
