43ea6a9ce8 Added <minix/sys_config.h>. This file is intended to be included from
other, user-includable config files. It only defines names that don't
pollute the users namespace (start with _). <minix/config.h> still works
like always; it includes sys_config.h now and defines the 'messy' names
(such as CHIP) as the 'cleaner' names (such as _MINIX_CHIP).

Changed some of the other include files to use sys_config.h and the
'cleaner' names. This solves some (past and future) compilation problems.

538e8ba2f1 Added header file that decodes the intel x86 flags register.
Added field in kinfo that can count re-lock()ing, controlled by
ENABLE_K_LOCKCHECK in config.h.

2f74381dcc Fixed 'ps' utility: now get process table addresses with getsysinfo() calls.
To be done: get copies of process tables instead of using /dev/(k)mem.

f2a85e58d9 Various updates.
* Removed some variants of the SYS_GETINFO calls from the kernel;
  replaced them with new PM and utils libary functionality. Fixed
  bugs in utils library that used old get_kenv() variant.
* Implemented a buffer in the kernel to gather random data.
  Memory driver periodically checks this for /dev/random.
  A better random algorithm can now be implemented in the driver.
  Removed SYS_RANDOM; the SYS_GETINFO call is used instead.
* Remove SYS_KMALLOC from the kernel. Memory allocation can now
  be done at the process manager with new 'other' library functions.

0165662cd9 Replaced flagalrm() timers with another technique to check for timeouts.
This allowed removing the p_flagarlm timer from the kernel's process table.
Furthermore, I merged p_syncalrm and p_signalrm into p_alarm_timer to save
even more space. Note that processes can no longer have both a signal and
synchronous alarm timer outstanding as of now.

0899f82ab2 Fixed some minor issues with the NOTIFY call. 2005-05-24 14:35:58 +00:00

ccd17ecfed New NOTIFY system call! Queued at kernel. Duplicate messages (with same source
and type) are overwritten with newer flags/ arguments. The interface from
within the kernel is lock_notify(). User processes can make a system call with
notify(). NOTIFY fully replaces the old notification mechanism.
