* VFS and installed MFSes must be in sync before and after this change *
Use struct stat from NetBSD. It requires adding new STAT, FSTAT and LSTAT
syscalls. Libc modification is both backward and forward compatible.
Also new struct stat uses modern field sizes to avoid ABI
incompatibility, when we update uid_t, gid_t and company.
Exceptions are ino_t and off_t in old libc (though paddings added).
- The primary reason is that mkfs and installboot need to run natively during
the cross compilation (host and target versions are compiled). There is a
collision of include files though. E.g. a.out.h is very minix-specific.
Therefore some files we moved and replaced by stubs that include the original
file if compiling on or for Minix :
include/a.out.h -> include/minix/a.out.h
include/sys/dir.h -> include/minix/dir.h
include/dirent.h -> include/minix/dirent.h
include/sys/types.h -> include/minix/types.h
- This does not break any native compilation on Minix. Other headers that were
including the original files are changed according to include directly the
new, minix specific location not to pick up the host system includes while
cross-compiling.
- role of this patch is to make rebasing of the build branch simpler until the
new build system is merged
