in the air to deal with it.
Basically, following a kernel fault (eg. dereferencing a NULL pointer
in kernel mode) a DDB 'trace' did not show the function where the
fault occurred. For example:
db> trace
_Debugger()
_panic()
_trap()
faultstkadj()
_pool_drain()
_uvm_pageout()
_start_pagedaemon()
_proc_trampoline()
db>
The 'faultstkadj()' line here is bogus. It is shown because the return
address to 'trap()' happens to point there, and since faultstkadj() has
no stack frame, DDB assumes it was the faulting function. In this example,
the _real_ function was pool_reclaim(), but you would have to look at
the program counter at the time of the fault to figure that one out.
This fix makes the trace command do the dirty work for you by grubbing
around in 'trap()'s argument list to find the *real* PC value at the
time of the fault, replacing the 'faultstkadj()' line with the real
function's name.
provides the correct functions for primary, secondary, and unified
boot blocks. actually behave correctly (e.g. expect correct arguments,
perform correct operations) depending on which you are. also
some minor cleanup.
guts were actually functionally equivalent to the current guts, but were
much larger, filled with bugs, and indeed poked around at the disklabel
when some of those bugs prevented them from ever using the disklabel!
had a few bugs fixed that let the problem slip in, and since bootxx's
Makefile now goes out of its way to satisfy installboot's undocumented
and totally unreasonable assumptions about the bootxx file it's operating
on. No point in fixing the assumptions, because sooner rather than later
this incarnation of installboot is going to die.
assuming that there's always going to be space for the whole boot
block info struct. (the assumption would cause a malloc'd region
to be overrun, if it proved false.)
picking the bits we wanted explicitly, taking advantage of some of the
recent code-size trimming from cgd. There's now no duplication if libsa
code in sys/arch/pmax/stand.
As a bonus, we now have 416 bytes free in stage one (up from 80), and
will all of Chris' space saving options enabled (these are commented out
in scsiboot/Makefile), theres over a 1kB free.
