best-fit, rather than first-fit, algorithm.
ability to handle free()s with zero size (needed for gzip read
support).
ability to start the heap someplace else (defined by HEAP_START).
ability to limit growth of the heap (via HEAP_LIMIT).
debugging sanity checks (ifdef DEBUG).
allocation tracing support, to help debugging (ifdef ALLOC_TRACE).
and from me:
ability to pick a (smaller) first-fit algorithm (via ALLOC_FIRST_FIT).
lots of comments.
If heap limits and all of the debugging features are disabled (the default),
and ALLOC_FIRST_FIT is defined (not the default), compiled with -O on the
alpha the new version is the same (object) size as the old version.
upper-level YP call. This allows the RPC code to retry the transaction,
which is helpful for busy networks.
Problem noted and suggested fix from Michael.Eriksson@era-t.ericsson.se,
and slightly modified by me to compute the RPC timeout one at compile-time,
rather than N times at run-time.
Fixes PR #3117.
- move the helper programs txlt and aout2bb to the topmost directory
- build the few files from libsa in the topmost directory
* while doing this, hunted down mysterious code expansion: It seems
that ld aligns code segments differently when linking .o's directly
than when using an archive consisting of the same files. Abuse this
effect to make the bootblock even smaller. The floppy boot block
"fdboot" is now small enough to build; add it back to the Makefile.
* while being here, remove a file which was committed by mistake.
1.2A and 1.2B, respectively). clean up the strings resulting from
other Nx uses slightly. (previously, 1.0A would be printed as 1.0a, etc.
Now it's printed correctly.)
bit quick and dirty, and there may still be errors or confusions present.
* NetBSD does not use tcpd, since inetd does internal checks.
* NetBSD uses hosts_options.
* NetBSD inetd does not have `paranoid' mode to automatically reject
paranoid connections without further processing.
* NetBSD can have more than one address on a physical interface.
* Safe_finger comes from the tcp_wrappers package, not included in NetBSD.
* Add RCS ID (at end, because this uses old manpage macros).
and declare ssir as volatile. This avoids the problem of lost softints
should a hard interrupt cause a softint to be flagged while we are
clearing a different one.
Idea from atari mtpr.h, modified/optimized by me.
* Command line editing via editline(3) library.
* Context sensitive command and file completion, including remote files.
Enhancements to auto-fetch feature:
* Support for http:// URLs using the http protocol, including proxy HTTP
support via $htty_proxy if it's defined.
* The connection is kept open between successive files on the same host.
(obviously, this does not count for http requests.)
* Return value of ftp is 0 on no error, or the offset in argv[] of the file
which failed (i.e., argv[x] failed, ftp returns x).
* If the path in an ftp URL or classic format line has a trailing '/',
cd to the path and enter interactive mode. Fixes [bin/3011], albiet
requiring the user to help ftp in determining the operation.
Other changes:
* '-P port' works for normal ftp, and is the default for all classic style
auto-fetch transfers and for ftp URLs that don't specify the port.
(previously it would just work for the first xfer.)
* Some code moved into separated files along logical divisions.
* Editing and completion can be compiled out with -DSMALLFTP.
