After this patch, "UnitTester BSymLink" passes.
BSymLink::ReadLink() in BeOS would always return the length of the
link unless an error occurred. Before this patch, Haiku instead seemed
to emulate posix readlink() behavior, returning the number of bytes
copied into the output buffer.
BeOS also did not guarantee that the string written into the output
buffer is NULL terminated if the output buffer cannot contain the
entire link contents, but the Haiku implementation does since it is is
a basic safety issue.
This patch fixes this and updates the Haiku API docs to describe the
behavior explicitly.
Fixing this required changing behavior in bfs_read_link, which
required changes in many more places.
docs/user/storage/SymLink.dox:
src/kits/storage/SymLink.cpp:
* Don't return B_BUFFER_OVERFLOW if the provided buffer is not large
enough to hold the link contents.
* Update documentation to clearly describe behavior.
src/add-ons/kernel/file_systems/bfs/kernel_interface.cpp:
* Change bfs_read_link() to always return the link length. This is
called by common_read_link in the VFS, which is called by
_kern_read_link().
src/add-ons/kernel/file_systems/btrfs/kernel_interface.cpp:

* Update the implementation of read_link for these filesystems. Some
of them were incorrect, and some had just copied the posix behavior of
bfs from before this patch.
* Use user_memcpy in ext2_read_link()

* Update UnpackingLeafNode::ReadSymlink and
PackageSymLink::ReadSymLink() to set the bufferSize out parameter to
the symlink length. Both of these are called by
packagefs_read_symlink.
* Use user_memcpy
src/add-ons/kernel/file_systems/netfs/client/netfs.cpp:
* netfs seems mostly unimplemented. Added a FIXME note for future
implementers so that they know to implement the correct behavior.
src/system/libroot/posix/unistd/link.c:
* readlinkat() was just wrapping _kern_read_link() because before this
patch it had expected posix behavior. But now it does not, so we
need to return the number of bytes written to the output
buffer.
src/build/libroot/fs.cpp:
* Update _kern_read_link() in the compatibility code to emulate the
Haiku behavior on the host system. This is done by using an
intermediate buffer that is guaranteed to fit the link contents and
returning its length. The intermediate buffer is copied into the
output buffer until there is no more room.
src/tests/kits/storage/SymLinkTest.cpp:
* This patch also resolves some test failures similar to those
resolved in ee8cf35f0 which fixed tests for BNode. The tests were
failing because Haiku's error checking is just better.
BeOS allowed constructing a BSymLink with BSymLink(BDirectory*,
const char*) with the entry name of "". The same is true of the
equivilant SetTo() method. The BSymLink object will appear valid
until you attempt to use it by, for example, calling the ReadLink
method, which will return B_BAD_VALUE.
Haiku does a more appropriate thing and returns B_ENTRY_NOT_FOUND,
for this constructor and the equivilant SetTo(BDirectory*, const
char*) method. This patch fixes these test assertions to match Haiku
behavior.

The current implementation of the keystore_server is not perfect. While the
source has many seeds for a future of having keyrings encrypted, and having
more fine grained permissions, it is far from complete.
The main arguments for adding documentation about this new but incomplete

headers, and there are some legitimate use cases for developers.
The documentation aims to give the proper amount of caution to any developer

This change is a reshuffle of the backend processing involved in the
aquisition of data from servers including the pull-down and load of
HPKR data as well as the pull-down and load of data from the
HaikuDepotServer (HDS) system. The driver for this change is to
implement an initial implementation of a progress bar for the
loading of data as the application starts.
The following are notable changes;
* Removed some previously attempted 'functional style' logic in the
model which didn't fit well with C++
* Use of the base-url in the logical mapping from HDS and HD data is no
longer required and has been removed
* Some logging has been improved making it clearer which part of HD
is producing the logging which in turn helps with debugging issues
* List class has been modified to more cleanly support sorted lists
and binary searches; tests have also be updated accordingly
* Reorganise and tidy-up of the data-loading processes' structures
* The local repository update (HPKR) and data-load occur in background
processes now in the same system as the HDS data-load - this has been
crudely shifted from the MainWindow to new Processes and incorporated
into the background processing system
* The 'state-machine' background process runner is now replaced with a
'coordinator' style approach that can more easily handle the new
processes related to HPKR loading.
* Progress for loading processes is shown in the main window in the
WorkStatusView - this is flickering a bit, but basically works
* Added some documentation regarding how Processes work in the system
* The "Refresh Repositories" menu item now also updates data from HDS
* The "Refresh Repositories" menu item is disabled when the background
processes are running that update the repository data
Some further refinement would be good, but this change is large enough
for one round of improvements. There is an issue that the status bar
is used for screenshot display as well as this data-loading, but that
was the case before so it is something that can be dealt with later if
it is a problem.

John's revert of my removal commit dragged back a bunch of cygwin/sunos
cruft, as well as re-adding RegExp.cpp to the host libshared, that we don't
need.
Instead, remove this and add libgnuregex_build to just the tools/keymap
link alongside the FreeBSD gnuregex case.
The cached top coordinate of each BListItem isn't updated when you
change the height of the item, leading to confusing highlighting and
incorrect mouse clicks. Rather than fixing it, this just documents a
workaround or two to force an update of the cached coordinates.
Now vaguely follows the tree structure of "src", with the exception of
directories that described subsystems spanning more than one "kit" or
"server" (e.g. "media", "midi", "bluetooth") -- these have been left as their
own top-level directory within docs/develop.
This is the beginning of a large "move developer docs from the wiki
to the tree" operation, which will probably take some time to complete.
The general goal is to consolidate all docs that would be used by developers
(i.e., anyone working on the Haiku tree) into the tree itself. Docs on
getting started contributing, or for translators, designers, etc. will remain
on Trac and on the website.
I've updated the docs to match the current BMailComponent, documented
new functions, and cleaned up the MailComponent.h file to at least
somewhat match our coding style.
First in a series (there are 3 more old API docs on the Mail Kit in that
"Public API" folder.)
It was needed on macOS for a time when BUrl used regexes for parsing.
Now it does not, and so we can remove libshared's RegExp from build
libshared, and thus also libgnuregex.
The Interface Kit is long since "99% functional", so lists of modules
with what's-implemented-what's-not are not really helpful anymore.
The one (rather lengthy) file describing the unit testing system
set up by the IKTeam is indeed useful, so keep that.
Previously when we used Drupal, the icon guidelines there "shadowed"
the ones in this tree. Now that the git-based website reigns supreme,
we should not keep two copies around. I've chosen to preserve
the one in the website repository and trash this one because the icon
guidelines primarily target artists, not programmers (as just about
all other docs in this directory do.)
The only thing of any real use in this directory was the Be Newsletter
article, and the objdump from BeOS R5 (at least I guess that's what it is...)
so I kept those.

As discussed on the mailing lists and with Humdinger off-list:
* The general design concensus tends slightly towards DejaVu, as metrics
of DejaVu look much better (DejaVu 12 and Noto 13 are roughly the same size,
but Noto has much wider margins with that)
* While Noto does have a wider set of fonts with support for lots of
different languages, DejaVu actually has built-in support for more
Unicode languages (the default Noto has, as far as I can tell, only
Latin/Greek/Cyrillic [2416 glyphs], while DejaVu also has Armenian, Georgian,
and a few other scripts too [5119 glyphs].)
* The worse rendering of DejaVu appears to have been somewhat rectified by
disabling the average-based subpixel filter in app_server.
This mostly reverts commit 75b219d35a.
The changes to the image URLs in Alert.dox are still needed, so I

As per discussion on the mailing list and IRC.
Since the "Layout" group is a member of the "Interface" group,
Doxygen automatically adds the "Interface" group to all pages

created duplicate group tags.

everything else pretty much worked out of the box. Only a number of CSS
changes were needed to adapt.

...instead of doubleBuffered for the flag that specifies whether or not to
draw using an offscreen buffer.
Also remove the (not currently used) text from the docs since the parameter
is being used.
The inseparable changes necessary to support live color updating across the
system in a sane, safe, and performant manner.
BView gains:
HasSystemColors()
HasDefaultColors()
AdoptSystemColors()
AdoptParentColors()
AdoptViewColor(BView*)
SetViewUIColor(color_which, float tint)
SetHighUIColor(...
SetLowUIColor(...
ViewUIColor(float* tint)
HighUIColor(...
LowUIColor(...
DelayedInvalidate()
BWindow gains a simple helper method:
IsOffscreenWindow()
BMessage gains:
AddColor()
FindColor()
GetColor()
HasColor() * allegedly this API is deprecated, but I implemented it anyway
ReplaceColor()
SetColor()
Previous private ColorTools methods are made public and moved into GraphicsDefs:
mix_color, blend_color, disable_color
These are fully compatible with BeOS dan0 R5.1 methods and are just code cleanup
of BeOS example code under the OpenTracker license.
In addition, four new colors are created:
B_LINK_TEXT_COLOR
B_LINK_HOVER_COLOR
B_LINK_ACTIVE_COLOR
B_LINK_VISITED_COLOR
These changes are documented in their proper user documentation files.
In addition, due to a history rewrite, B_FOLLOW_LEFT_TOP has been defined and
used in lieu of B_FOLLOW_TOP | B_FOLLOW_LEFT and is included in this commit.
On the app_server side, the following has changed:
Add DelayedMessage - a system by which messages can be sent at a scheduled time,
and can also be merged according to set rules. A single thread is used to service the
message queue and multiple recipients can be set for each message.
Desktop gains the ability to add message ports to a DelayedMessage so that
said messages can target either all applications or all windows, as needed.
Desktop maintains a BMessage which is used to queue up all pending color changes
and the delayed messaging system is used to enact these changes after a short
period of time has passed. This prevents abuse and allows the system to merge
repeated set_ui_color events into one event for client applications, improving
performance drastically.
In addition, B_COLORS_UPDATED is sent to the BApplication, which forwards the message
to each BWindow. This is done to improve performance over having the app_server
independently informing each window.
Decorator changes are live now, which required some reworking.

* Sticky events are events that keep their signal raised, ie. even if
a job is initialized afterwards, it will still be triggered.
* Consolidated naming for external events.
* Events are now registered once they are actually being used. This
allows them to allocate the resources they need to do their thing.
This was missed when introducing the feature in hrev49558. Thanks Jérôme
for the pointer!
Also add a note explaining that update operations on cached entries and
the removal of uncached entries are safe.
Without this, Doxygen attempts to parse __attribute__ directives
and often outputs garbage instead of properly parsing them, so just
exclude them from the documentation.
Fixes some incorrect function listings in BString documentation
and possibly more elsewhere.
