emul.darwin.init.pid instead of emul.darwin.init_pid, and so on.
This breaks backward compatibility with the pre-dynamic sysctl(8) for
emul.darwin, but it has never been available in a formal release, so
it should be alright.
remote process. This new implementation also passes all the test programs
I've written so far.
- When exceptions come from traps, no UNIX signal should evet be sent.
- Add a lock to ensure a debugger handles only one exception at a time
- Use a structure to hold flavor and behavior in exception ports, instead
of stuffing the two argument into an int.
- Implement new Mach services: thread_suspend, thread_resume and thread_abort
- Implement Darwin's ptrace PT_ATTACHEXC and PT_THUPDATE commands
- Handle NULL second argument correctly in sigprocmask.
- One mistake in the last commit (darwin_tracesig prototype)
fit what it does.
The softsignal feature is used in Darwin to trace processes. When the
traced process gets a signal, this raises an exception. The debugger will
receive the exception message, use ptrace with PT_THUPDATE to pass the
signal to the child or discard it, and then it will send a reply to the
exception message, to resume the child.
With the hook at the beginnng of kpsignal2, we are in the context of the
signal sender, which can be the kill(1) command, for instance. We cannot
afford to sleep until the debugger tells us if the signal should be
delivered or not.
Therefore, the hook to generate the Mach exception must be in the traced
process context. That was we can sleep awaiting for the debugger opinion
about the signal, this is not a problem. The hook is hence located into
issignal, at the place where normally SIGCHILD is sent to the debugger,
whereas the traced process is stopped. If the hook returns 0, we bypass
thoses operations, the Mach exception mecanism will take care of notifying
the debugger (through a Mach exception), and stop the faulting thread.
exec case, as the emulation already has the ability to intercept that
with the e_proc_exec hook. It is the responsability of the emulation to
take appropriaye action about lwp_emuldata in e_proc_exec.

argument, large sigset), and the older sigprocset (no old set argument,
small sigset). It feature old set argument and small sigset.
We now emulates this correctly.
Add some methods to IOFramebuffer (DARWIN_IOFBSETBOUNDS,
DARWIN_IOFBSETCURSORVISIBLE) and to IOHIDSystem (DARWIN_IOHIDPOSTEVENT),
all are unimplemented empty shells.
Gone are the old kern_sysctl(), cpu_sysctl(), hw_sysctl(),
vfs_sysctl(), etc, routines, along with sysctl_int() et al. Now all
nodes are registered with the tree, and nodes can be added (or
removed) easily, and I/O to and from the tree is handled generically.
Since the nodes are registered with the tree, the mapping from name to
number (and back again) can now be discovered, instead of having to be
hard coded. Adding new nodes to the tree is likewise much simpler --
the new infrastructure handles almost all the work for simple types,
and just about anything else can be done with a small helper function.
All existing nodes are where they were before (numerically speaking),
so all existing consumers of sysctl information should notice no
difference.
PS - I'm sorry, but there's a distinct lack of documentation at the
moment. I'm working on sysctl(3/8/9) right now, and I promise to
watch out for buses.
so that a specific emulation has the oportunity to filter out some signals.
if sigfilter returns 0, then no signal is sent by kpsignal2().
There is another place where signals can be generated: trapsignal. Since this
function is already an emulation hook, no call to the sigfilter hook was
introduced in trapsignal.
This is needed to emulate the softsignal feature in COMPAT_DARWIN (signals
sent as Mach exception messages)
Exceptions coming from a trap are generated from darwin_trapsignal()
softsignals are from darwin_sigfilter(), a function that is called
from darwin_trapsignal() and from kpsignal2() [the latter from a
emulation specific hook which is not yet committed]
Make some sanity checks to avoid sending data to a port with no receiver.

blocked in the kernel. The task that catched the exception may unblock
it by sending a reply to the exception message (Of course it will have
to change something so that the exception is not immediatly raised again).
Handling of this reply is a bit complicated, as the kernel acts as the
client instead of the server. In this situation, we receive a message
but we will not send any reply (the message we receive is already a reply).
I have not found anything better than a special case in
mach_msg_overwrite_trap() to handle this.
A surprise: exceptions ports are preserved accross forks.
While we are there, use appropriate 64 bit types for make_memory_entry_64.
may turn into exceptions on Mach: a small message sent by the kernel to
the task that requested the exception.
On Darwin, when an exception is sent, no signal can be delivered.
TODO: more exceptions: arithmetic, bad instructions, emulation, s
software, and syscalls (plain and Mach). There is also RPC alert, but
I have no idea about what it is.
While we are there, remove some user ktrace in notification code, and add
a NODEF qualifier in mach_services.master: it will be used for notifications
and exceptions, where the kernel is always client and never server: we
don't want the message to be displayed as "unimplemented xxx" in kdump (thus
UNIMPL is not good), but we don't want to generate the server prototype
(therefore, STD is not good either). NODEF will declare it normally in the
name tables without creating the prototype.
1) make sure Mach servers will not work on data beyond the end of the
request message buffer.
2) make sure that on copying out the reply message buffer, we will not
leak kernel data located after the buffer.
3) make sure that the server will not overwrite memory beyond the end
of the reply message buffer. That check is the responsability of the
server, there is just a DIAGNOSTIC test to check everything is in
good shape. All currently implemented servers in NetBSD have been
modified to check for this condition
While we are here, build the mach services table (formerly in mach_namemap.c)
and the services prototypes automatically from mach_services.master, just
as this is done for system calls.
The next step would be to fold the message formats in the mach_services.master
file, but this tends to be difficult, as some messages are quite long and
complex.

seems to handle a graph more than a tree). Introfuction of a keyboard

The kernel keymapping is still a big mystery.
static binary: otool). Dynamic binaires have a pointer to the Mach-O
header on the top of the stack, static binaries don't have this, and
having it produced a crash.
One bugfix: the EXEC_MACHO code assumes that entry = NULL means that
the entry point has not been found in the load commands seen so far.
Therefore we need to initialized entry to NULL if we want a static binary
to discover it. (dynamic binaries were forced to iscover it because when
the intepreter load command is found, entry is updated whatever its
value was before).
One hack: Both COMPAT_MACH and COMPAT_DARWIN are willing to run Mach-O
binaries. COMPAT_MACH fails for dynamic binaries because it cannot find
the interpreter in /emul/mach. For static binaires, it will accept them
(and for Darwin static binaries, this will cause a failure). Until we
rite a test for matchinf Darwin static binaries, just swap the order of
COMPAT_MACH and COMPAT_DARWIN in the exec switch so that COMPAT_DARWIN
is tried first (this will have the advantage of speeding up program
startup). EXECSW_PRIO_{FIRST_LAST} does not seem to work...
