In each installation location, it is now possible to create a settings
file "packages" that allows to blacklist entries contained in packages.
The format is:
Package <package name> {
EntryBlacklist {
<entry path>
...
}
}
...
<package name> is the base name (no version) of the respective package
(e.g. "haiku"), <entry path> is an installation location relative path
(e.g. "add-ons/Translators/FooTranslator").
Blacklisted entries will be ignored by packagefs, i.e. they won't appear
in the file system. This addresses the issue that it may be necessary to
remove a problematic file (e.g. driver, add-on, or library), which would
otherwise require editing the containing package file.
The settings file is not not "live". Changes take effect only after
reboot (respectively when remounting the concerned packagefs volume).
Some gristing mixup caused the non-secondary version of the lib to be
added to the non-secondary directory, which is what the main
architecture HaikuDevel is already doing.
Trying to Read from a directory results in an error code, but we also
missed that because an unsigned variable was used to store the result.
Fixes#10210.
* Move PathBuffer helper class out of find_paths.cpp into its own
header.
* find_directory():
- Make use of MemoryDeleter to simplify things.
- Make use of PathBuffer for a simpler and more correct handling.
- Make B_UTILITIES_DIRECTORY to B_APPS_DIRECTORY. /boot/utilities
doesn't exist anyway.
- Resolve the concerned constants to the architecture specific
subdirectory, when called in a secondary architecture context, just
like find_path*().
* Computes the length of the category strings array.
* Checks against this length before accessing the array
* Improves comment
* Should fix#10186

* get_architectures() returns the primary and the secondary
architectures in one array. That turned out to be convenient.
* Add C++ versions for get[_secondary]_architectures(), returning a
BStringList.
* Add get_architecture(), get_primary_architecture(),
get_secondary_architectures(), guess_architecture_for_path() to get
the caller's architecture, the primary architecture, all secondary
architectures, or the architecture associated with a specified path
respectively.
* Rename the find_path*() functions to find_path*_etc() and add an
optional architecture parameter. Add simplified find_path*()
functions.
* BPathFinder: Add FindPath[s]() versions with an architecture
parameter.
Implement BNetworkRoster::GetRoutes() and BNetworkInterface::GetRoutes().
Also implement BNetworkInterface::GetDefaultGateway().
There is code duplication at the moment, and the api only supports IPV4.
By passing the window pointer to ScreenSaverRunner contructor and using that
to lock the window when drawing instead of getting the window from the
Window() method of the view. This is safer.
* Remove useless dummy protocol loop in UrlRequest
* Stop HTTP requests before deleting the socket and other things the
loop may still be using
* Deletion of items from the authentication map wasn't working
* Remove some debug traces
Start the screensaver in the window thread instead of the runner
thread so that there is no lock contention for the window lock in
the runner thread when the saver starts.
The view that gets drawn into is assumed to have been prepared before
being passed to the runner thread, and this assumption has been made
true for the screensaver preview and screen_blanker apps.
Eliminate fHasStarted and the corresponding HasStarted() method in
ScreenSaverRunner as they are no longer needed.
Drawing still happens in the runner thread, and still needs to lock
the window thread potentially causing contention, yet, there
is a timeout here so the contention won't freeze the screensaver window,
only delay drawing the screensaver.
Drawing could be moved to the window thread via message passing to avoid
lock contention with the window but this would defeat a big part of the
purpose of having a separate rendering thread.
This fixes#10125 and #4260
