space is advertised to UVM by making virtual_avail and virtual_end
first-class exported variables by UVM. Machine-dependent code is
responsible for initializing them before main() is called. Anything
that steals KVA must adjust these variables accordingly.
This reduces the number of instances of this info from 3 to 1, and
simplifies the pmap(9) interface by removing the pmap_virtual_space()
function call, and removing two arguments from pmap_steal_memory().
This also eliminates some kludges such as having to burn kernel_map
entries on space used by the kernel and stolen KVA.
This also eliminates use of VM_{MIN,MAX}_KERNEL_ADDRESS from MI code,
this giving MD code greater flexibility over the bounds of the managed
kernel virtual address space if a given port's specific platforms can
vary in this regard (this is especially true of the evb* ports).
page: -1 for error, 0 for EOF, 1 otherwise. Inspired by an OpenBSD commit
message, pointed out by Miod Vallat in private mail.
vax/mba/hp.c: check return value <= 0, not < 0 to be concistent with how
other places handle return values from bounds_check_with_label().
could move to <arch/mac> if one day we create it.
Fixed french keymap: option was not mapped correctly, thus making
impossible to use |{}[] (tested).
Added jp keymap from PR/15438, and sf, sv, de and uk keymaps from OpenBSD.
(all untested).
means that the dynamic linker gets mapped in at the top of available
user virtual memory (typically just below the stack), shared libraries
get mapped downwards from that point, and calls to mmap() that don't
specify a preferred address will get mapped in below those.
This means that the heap and the mmap()ed allocations will grow
towards each other, allowing one or the other to grow larger than
before. Previously, the heap was limited to MAXDSIZ by the placement
of the dynamic linker (and the process's rlimits) and the space
available to mmap was hobbled by this reservation.
This is currently only enabled via an *option* for the i386 platform
(though other platforms are expected to follow). Add "options
USE_TOPDOWN_VM" to your kernel config file, rerun config, and rebuild
your kernel to take advantage of this.
Note that the pmap_prefer() interface has not yet been modified to
play nicely with this, so those platforms require a bit more work
(most notably the sparc) before they can use this new memory
arrangement.
This change also introduces a VM_DEFAULT_ADDRESS() macro that picks
the appropriate default address based on the size of the allocation or
the size of the process's text segment accordingly. Several drivers
and the SYSV SHM address assignment were changed to use this instead
of each one picking their own "default".
cd ${KERNSRCDIR}/${KERNARCHDIR}/compile && ${PRINTOBJDIR}
This is far simpler than the previous system, and more robust with
objdirs built via BSDOBJDIR.
The previous method of finding KERNOBJDIR when using BSDOBJDIR by
referencing _SRC_TOP_OBJ_ from another directory was extremely
fragile due to the depth first tree walk by <bsd.subdir.mk>, and
the caching of _SRC_TOP_OBJ_ (with MAKEOVERRIDES) which would be
empty on the *first* pass to create fresh objdirs.
This change requires adding sys/arch/*/compile/Makefile to create
the objdir in that directory, and descending into arch/*/compile
from arch/*/Makefile. Remove the now-unnecessary .keep_me files
whilst here.
Per lengthy discussion with Andrew Brown.
The keyboard works fine now. I don't confirm working internal
ADB track pad.
But an internal IDE drive is not recognized, and
an internal SCSI host controller(sbc driver) don't work yet.
- disk_unbusy() gets a new parameter to tell the IO direction.
- struct disk_sysctl gets 4 new members for read/write bytes/transfers.
when processing hw.diskstats, add the read&write bytes/transfers for
the old combined stats to attempt to keep backwards compatibility.
unfortunately, due to multiple bugs, this will cause new kernels and old
vmstat/iostat/systat programs to fail. however, the next time this is
change it will not fail again.
this is just the kernel portion.
kqueue provides a stateful and efficient event notification framework
currently supported events include socket, file, directory, fifo,
pipe, tty and device changes, and monitoring of processes and signals
kqueue is supported by all writable filesystems in NetBSD tree
(with exception of Coda) and all device drivers supporting poll(2)
based on work done by Jonathan Lemon for FreeBSD
initial NetBSD port done by Luke Mewburn and Jason Thorpe
clean up some other stuff along the way, including:
- use m68k/cacheops.*, remove duplicates from cpu.h.
- centralize a few declarations in (all the copies of) cpu.h.
- define M68K_VAC on platforms which have a VAC.
- switch the sun platforms to the (now common) proc_trampoline().
- do the phys_map thang on the sun platforms too, no reason not to.
