to main.c to avoid a name collision with lib/libc/gen/disklabel.c
when we build nbdisklabel. Still todo: commit host-tool build
infrastructure to src/tools/disklabel/.
The Iyonix is a desktop machine from Castle Technology, based on a 600MHz
XScale[tm] 80321 processor.
* Uses the bootloader from NetBSD/acorn32, which is now 32-bit compatible.
* Currently boots multiuser with a serial console.
* Device support is not yet complete.
With help from abs.
If the input to 'disklabel' (non -i) referenced a partition two or more
larger than that permitted by npartitions it would error out with 'bad
partition name' (and the option given to re-edit if -e). If a partition one
larger was used it would be dropped from the disklabel with a warning and the
label written anyway! The (off by one) check for a bad partition name was
against npartitions anyway, rather than MAXPARTITIONS. npartitions was just
read from the disklabel and could have been set to an arbitrary value.
Given 'disklabel -i' sets npartitions automatically, make the normal case
check partition names against MAXPARTITIONS, and if necessary increase
npartitions to the size needed to hold the last partition used.
While here remove two 'write only' uses of a 'part' variable.
controls with the section for the other MBR-using platforms that
already enable this)
* Don't prompt the user to "erase the previous contents of the disk"
when there's no NetBSD MBR partition; SAVEBOOTAREA is sufficient.
These fixes mean that you can create a disklabel (on an i386/amd64) on a disk
that doesn't have a NetBSD MBR partition without trashing the existing MBR.
The previous behaviour was extremely annoying when working with media such
as FAT-formatted CF cards, and didn't really protect people with such from
accidentally trashing part of sector 1 of such disks, and made it extremely
easy to trash sectors 0..15 of those disks instead.
- factor out disksubr.c between sun3, sparc and sparc64. Keep the sun3
groveling code to find a NetBSD disklabel in the first sector (so that it
can find a label at the old sun3 LABELOFFSET) as a fallback is not
label at LABELOFFSET, or sun label is present.
- Fix the sun3 LABELOFFSET (was 64, but the kernel wrote the NetBSD label at
128)
- Make next68k disksubr.c always write a next-compatible disklabel.
- remove #ifdef __sparc__ hack from disklabel(8), and change it to issue
a DIOCWDINFO after writing the disklabel to the raw partition in the
-r/-I case (so that the kernel can convert the label if needed).
<sys/bootblock.h>:
* Added definitions for the Master Boot Record (MBR) used by
a variety of systems (primarily i386), including the format
of the BIOS Parameter Block (BPB).
This information was cribbed from a variety of sources
including <sys/disklabel_mbr.h> which this is a superset of.
As part of this, some data structure elements and #defines
were renamed to be more "namespace friendly" and consistent
with other bootblocks and MBR documentation.
Update all uses of the old names to the new names.
<sys/disklabel_mbr.h>:
* Deprecated in favor of <sys/bootblock.h> (the latter is more
"host tool" friendly).
amd64 & i386:
* Renamed /usr/mdec/bootxx_dosfs to /usr/mdec/bootxx_msdos, to
be consistent with the naming convention of the msdosfs tools.
* Removed /usr/mdec/bootxx_ufs, as it's equivalent to bootxx_ffsv1
and it's confusing to have two functionally equivalent bootblocks,
especially given that "ufs" has multiple meanings (it could be
a synonym for "ffs", or the group of ffs/lfs/ext2fs file systems).
* Rework pbr.S (the first sector of bootxx_*):
+ Ensure that BPB (bytes 11..89) and the partition table
(bytes 446..509) do not contain code.
+ Add support for booting from FAT partitions if BOOT_FROM_FAT
is defined. (Only set for bootxx_msdos).
+ Remove "dummy" partition 3; if people want to installboot(8)
these to the start of the disk they can use fdisk(8) to
create a real MBR partition table...
+ Compile with TERSE_ERROR so it fits because of the above.
Whilst this is less user friendly, I feel it's important
to have a valid partition table and BPB in the MBR/PBR.
* Renamed /usr/mdec/biosboot to /usr/mdec/boot, to be consistent
with other platforms.
* Enable SUPPORT_DOSFS in /usr/mdec/boot (stage2), so that
we can boot off FAT partitions.
* Crank version of /usr/mdec/boot to 3.1, and fix some of the other
entries in the version file.
installboot(8) (i386):
* Read the existing MBR of the filesystem and retain the BIOS
Parameter Block (BPB) in bytes 11..89 and the MBR partition
table in bytes 446..509. (Previously installboot(8) would
trash those two sections of the MBR.)
mbrlabel(8):
* Use sys/lib/libkern/xlat_mbr_fstype.c instead of homegrown code
to map the MBR partition type to the NetBSD disklabel type.
Test built "make release" for i386, and new bootblocks verified to work
(even off FAT!).
64 bit block pointers, extended attribute storage, and a few
other things.
This commit does not yet include the code to manipulate the extended
storage (for e.g. ACLs), this will be done later.

FreeBSD.
this one had all the infrastructure of fork/exec/wait, like the
others, but called system instead of exec creating an extra PID
and associated memory usage during the edit.
it conditional on USE_ACORN, and define that if MACHINE is arm26 or acorn32.
This is less than optimal, and maybe we should define it for all ARM systems,
but then disklabel handling across architectures is generally a mess at the
moment.
- add a function to print only one partition's info.
- print the partition information if it was modified in interactive mode.
- improve on the chaining code. [still assumes that partition offsets increase
monotonically]. We could check for overlap too.
already. So, don't fail if there appears to be a corrupt label or
no 'fake' label; get the 'default' label (which is generated
from DIOCGDEFLABEL) instead.
