readlink() from type `int' to type `size_t'. This isn't an ABI change, since
the calling convention of our only LP64 platform (the Alpha) already promotes
this argument to a `long'.
This may not be the final action on this matter; readlink() still returns
an `int', which may change in a future revision of the standard.
again - the facility required in this context would be a filesystem-specific
super-user determination, which is not available yet. Also, add some
clarification to a comment.
change_owner().
* Change the semantics of chown(), fchown() and lchown(): when requesting a
change of the owner of a file, clear the set-user-id bit; analogous behaviour
for group changes.
* Since the above is a violation of the semantics specified by POSIX and
X/Open, add corresponding compatibility syscalls: __posix_chown(),
__posix_fchown(), __posix_lchown(). (Neither fchown() nor lchown() is
specified by POSIX; the prefix is intended to reflect the semantics.)
* Rename posix_rename() to __posix_rename() to follow the above convention.
UVM was written by chuck cranor <chuck@maria.wustl.edu>, with some
minor portions derived from the old Mach code. i provided some help
getting swap and paging working, and other bug fixes/ideas. chuck
silvers <chuq@chuq.com> also provided some other fixes.
this is the rest of the MI portion changes.
this will be KNF'd shortly. :-)
to the stat(2) family and msync(2). This uses a primitive function
versioning scheme.
This reverts the libc shared library major version from 13 to 12, and
adds a few new interfaces to bring us to libc version 12.20.

which maps the old file system index numbers to the new (well, since after
NetBSD 0.9) string-based method of finding a file system ops vector. Use
this table rather than assuming the ordering of the vfssw[] array when
emulating the old mount system call.
- New function change_utimes() to set access and modification times
given a vnode.
- In the function sys_chmod() and sys_fchmod(), call change_mode().
- In the function sys_utimes() and sys_futimes(), call
change_utimes().
work. Not quite as good as with the Lite2 merges, but it'll do until then.
* dounmount() expects to be called with the mountpoint marked busy
* all callers of dounmount() thus make the call themselves
* if a filesystem was being unmounted, and we're woken up in vfs_busy(),
don't reference the mountpoint struct pointer, as it has very probably
been freed.
