There are some delays in making the actual package repo generated by the
buildbot go live. Until then, I'm going to manually update the existing
repositories with the built packages, so people can start to experiment
with them and report any new issues.
There are more updates coming, but I'm doing them gradually so we can see
which set of packages triggers a regression, should one happen.
This is separate to the VESA driver, as the VESA driver requires
using the VBE BIOS. Under UEFI, we don't have the VBE BIOS, nor
are we able to switch modes after leaving UEFI Boot Services, so
a dumb framebuffer driver seemed like the easier way to approach
the problem.
The framebuffer & vesa drivers now test for the presence of the
VESA_MODES_BOOT_INFO boot item to distinguish between which driver
to use. Also added check for the VESA mode count to determine
whether to add the VESA_MODES_BOOT_INFO item.
UEFI video updated to explicitly zero out the VESA and EDID
boot data.
Revert "repo rework: Remove stubs; Breaks repo compat."
Revert "repo rework: Remove need for repos to be self-aware"
This reverts commit a2b2f4d642.
This reverts commit 602076ef82.
This reverts commit 5ffaf72c8a.
These changes break the build on Haiku and the ability to create repo
mirrors, for the lack of a replacement for the URL (an UUID was evoked
on the mailing lists, but not implemented).
We are due for a release soon, please don't break the build.
* See #12917 for details.
* Squashed to one commit to make revert easy if we
run into any issues.
* pkgman is now pre-attached to the 'current' repo
version within nightly images so they can be updated
by default.
* This shouldn't impact us keeping older sets of package
versions by commit hash for building older hrevs.
* There are XXX stubs with "Kill me". These will need
to be dropped after users are given sufficent time to
upgrade. We're dropping a previously required field (url)
so making this a slowish roll out.
* Makes the repos a lot less restrictive which should
help PM package building automation be a bit easier.
* Once this stuff smooths out, we'll add UUID's to the
repo definitions for duplicate repo detection.
* Re ML discussions, this should make a lot more
sense to users as it is inline with what most
linux distros ship.
* This will require a tweak to the buildbot.
* First step to shipping anyboot instead of plain iso.
Added Haiku's new forums.
Added BeBytes.
Removed GuestOne repo (can be re-added if they return).
Added empty "Bookmarks bar" folder.
Added overlay icons for the folders in "Bookmarks".
- B_TRIM_DEVICE on a ram disk frees all requested pages. Reading from a
trimmed page returns all 0s. This can be used with fstrim to release
memory for the parts not used by the filesystem, without unregistering
then registering the device.
- Add icon and ioctl to get it.
- Add it to the image, because it works reasonably well and there is no
reason not to include it.
Thanks to Pete Goodeve for patiently providing help and feedback wrt
the package layout and esp. for his device definitions for the Roland GS
and Yamaha XG.
