floppy (and there's not the same RAM contraints that *-tiny has),
fold rescue-small into boot-small and deprecate the former.
The "all in one" boot-small is only 100KB larger on the second floppy.
extract. We now generate GNU tar archives by default ("ustar ^@" instead of
"ustar^@00"). GNU extensions can be disabled with --strict.
XXX: long symlinks untested.
ALL_KERNELS ?= ${KERNEL_SETS} ${EXTRA_KERNELS} ${BUILD_KERNELS}
and use ALL_KERNELS instead of the latter three in the loop to configure
& build kernels. This allows ALL_KERNELS to be overridden in make(1)'s
environment or on make(1)'s command line... (I got sick of waiting for
all eleven i386 kernels to rebuild when I was only testing one)
of a single 1.2MB floppy; cranky FLOPPYMAX to use two floppies.
the kernel and the contents of the ramdiskbin have both grown...
(We should just merge the install & rescue functionality of the -small
floppies into one two x 1.2MB floppy set, since -small is for older
machines with 1.2MB floppy drives, versus those with extremely small
RAM constraints)
GCC produces almost exactly the same instructions as the hand-assembled
versions, albeit in a different order. It even found one place where it
could shave one off. Its insistence on creating a stack frame might slow
things down marginally, but not, I think, enough to matter.
to char-cell based vga(4) driver, and fully compatible with existing
apps like XFree86. Currently it supports 80x25, 80x30, 80x40 and 80x50
text modes using emulation. You can enable it by specifying `options
VGA_RASTERCONSOLE' in your kernel config file.
Note that displaying multilingual text doesn't work yet. Necessary
code is already there, but userland stuff and some functionality isn't
ready for prime time yet. I'm working on them.
mode 666 tty.
In order to use sshd logins with a read-only /dev, the administrator has to
make the tty mode 600 root/wheel before the partition gets read-only.
children to attach; it is not sufficient to have an interface
atttribute which only happens to have the same name.
Fix the same mistake with the sabtty declaration.
It seems that the firmware accept 104bit key only if
all the keys have 104bit length. We get the length of
the transmit key and use it for all other keys.
Perhaps we should use software WEP for such situation.
Change the name for the size of driver private structure:
ic_bss_privlen -> ic_node_privlen
Add a hook to free node for the driver private structure, though there are
no consumer of the structure in the tree for now.
add rd, pc, #foo - . - 8 -> adr rd, foo
ldr rd, [pc, #foo - . - 8] -> ldr rd, foo
Also, when saving the return address for a function pointer call, use
"mov lr, pc" just before the call unless the return address is somewhere
other than just after the call site.
Finally, a few obvious little micro-optimisations like using LDR directly
rather than ADR followed by LDR, and loading directly into PC rather than
bouncing via R0.
