data which can be read, as expected. Before, the call fell through a
"case" statement and was forwarded to the slave side, returning the
data which can be read by the slave.
The new behaviour also matches Linux and OSF/1.
- Add a lot of missing selinit() and seldestroy() calls.
- Merge selwakeup() and selnotify() calls into a single selnotify().
- Add an additional 'events' argument to selnotify() call. It will
indicate which event (POLL_IN, POLL_OUT, etc) happen. If unknown,
zero may be used.
Note: please pass appropriate value of 'events' where possible.
Proposed on: <tech-kern>
the code that `knows' about /dev/[pt]tyXX names (the BSD ptys) into a separate
file. Make an interface to be used by the tty creating provider. The code
to enable old PTY searching via ptm is enabled via COMPAT_BSDPTY, and it
is turned on by default on all kernels that have compatibility options enabled.
Lock setting/clearing of tp->t_oproc to guarantee concurrent opens can't
both suceed and that code in tty.c can't get a NULL t_oproc if the value
is re-read after being checked.
There are still MP issues with pt_flags, pt_send and pt_unctl.
Maybe problems that require TTY_LOCK() to be taken before calling std tty
functions.
be inserted into ktrace records. The general change has been to replace
"struct proc *" with "struct lwp *" in various function prototypes, pass
the lwp through and use l_proc to get the process pointer when needed.
Bump the kernel rev up to 1.6V
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
This merge changes the device switch tables from static array to
dynamically generated by config(8).
- All device switches is defined as a constant structure in device drivers.
- The new grammer ``device-major'' is introduced to ``files''.
device-major <prefix> char <num> [block <num>] [<rules>]
- All device major numbers must be listed up in port dependent majors.<arch>
by using this grammer.
- Added the new naming convention.
The name of the device switch must be <prefix>_[bc]devsw for auto-generation
of device switch tables.
- The backward compatibility of loading block/character device
switch by LKM framework is broken. This is necessary to convert
from block/character device major to device name in runtime and vice versa.
- The restriction to assign device major by LKM is completely removed.
We don't need to reserve LKM entries for dynamic loading of device switch.
- In compile time, device major numbers list is packed into the kernel and
the LKM framework will refer it to assign device major number dynamically.
