* You can now put jobs/services into a target.
* Instead of having Login started as part of the normal boot process,
it's now in the "login" target.
* The app_server now launches the login target when a login becomes
available (ie. during startup, but that could be improved later on).
* Instead of launching Tracker/Deskbar directly, we now launch the
Login application.
* This will now start a new session for the selected user (the password
is currently ignored).
* When a user session is started, the launch_daemon forks, and the
child then restarts the LaunchDaemon application in user mode.
* It then registers itself with its parent, in order to resolve user
dependent services.
* Added a user launch file that will cause Tracker, and Deskbar to
start in the new session.
* get_roster_port_name() is no longer needed.
* This also removes the app_server restart code from the debug
server -- this will be done by the launch_daemon in the future.
* Dropped "create_port" -- this is now the default for services.
* Additionally (or alternatively, if you use the "legacy" mode), you can
now create named ports, and specify their capacity.
* Added convenience methods to BLaunchRoster that automatically use the
signature of the current be_app.
* This is actually working already, although we cannot reproduce all
the features of the former Bootscript yet. This is without any
dependency support in launch_daemon.
* All shell activity like cleaning out /tmp, setting up the environment,
setting the time, etc. is not yet working.
* This will be heavily inspired by Apple's launchd, as well as
systemd -- for now it really doesn't do a whole lot, though.
* What works so far: the configuration files are read, parsed, and
the jobs created.
* The jobs are even initialized, and their message ports created.
* BApplication now retrieves a previously created port from the
launch_daemon for use with BServer.
* Only the registrar actually uses this for now.
These files are required for netresolv functionality, and there is no
real use in modifying them as settings files. Restore the previous
behavior, the files are stored in data and part of the Haiku package.
This means there is no need for a fresh install from image to get the
files anymore.
Fixes#12156.
libbind development was transferred to the NetBSD project at
http://wiki.netbsd.org/individual-software-releases/netresolv/
There isn't an official release yet, but they provide a set of patches
against the latest libbind release.
* Remove all files we don't use
* Merge the changes to the remaining files
* Add some new files we need
* Move getifaddrs implementation to libnetwork (instead of libbnetapi)
so it can be used by netresolv.
Fixes#8293 : netresolv uses getifaddrs to determine if there is a local
IPv6 address. If there is not, it will not return AAAA records.
* This also updates /etc/profile to detect whether our
parent process is a shell, and changes the banner
message accordingly.
* Also, pipe errors to /dev/null, in case grep is not
installed; this allows us to not require grep as a
dependency, and let the banner message do the right
thing.
