jruoho dfba418d38 Add mq(3), a manual page for the POSIX message queues. This tries to act as
a short introduction to the rationale and API, noting also some pros and cons.

rmind@: basically ok. Please feel free to adjust, correct, and extend.

jruoho 2e96a91ae5 Remove the paragraph about the used notification mechanism. Instead,
reference sigevent(3). Clarify the file offset discussion.

jruoho e8cfad37a0 Reference only aio(3) in SEE ALSO as it is the central placeholder. Note
timespec(3). Markup: -width Er (not -width Dv), .Dv NULL (not null), etc.

jruoho 4e9ea952b8 Add an introductory manual page for the POSIX asynchronous I/O, aio(3).
This is hopefully enough for a reader to get started with the aio.

ok rmind@

ad 18e73e1ebe Replace semid_t with intptr_t. No function change. This is a libc/kernel
private interface and so the name change should not affect any third

yamt 603e4b9abd update for _sched_{get,set}param changes. from rmind@. 2008-02-09 17:01:51 +00:00
rmind b5e9addd22 sched_setparam: fix the case when incorrect (according to the class)
in-kernel priority is used.  Reported by <drochner>.

Minor fixes for scheduling calls to conform the POSIX:
- If pid is equal to zero, use the calling process;
- In case of permission problem, return EPERM instead of EACESS;
- sched_setscheduler() should return previously used policy;
- pthread_* calls should return the error code or zero;

Should fix the namespace problems (and builds of some packages):
- Move cpuset_t defintion from pset.h to sched.h;
- Remove the #include of pset.h in pthread.h;

rmind 5c71a4d49f Implementation of processor-sets, affinity and POSIX real-time extensions.
Add schedctl(8) - a program to control scheduling of processes and threads.

Notes:
- This is supported only by SCHED_M2;
- Migration of LWP mechanism will be revisited;

rmind 67d703cf25 Import of POSIX Asynchronous I/O.
Seems to be quite stable. Some work still left to do.

Please note, that syscalls are not yet MP-safe, because
of the file and vnode subsystems.

time of import.
