instead of keeping a running total of enqueued processes
(because somehow the load average was broken)
. added SI_KPROC_TAB to get a copy of kernel process table from PM, for
a top implementation
. fixed arg to sys_nice() to make it an endpoint, not a slot number
. rename message field name macros from *PROC* to *ENDPT*,
both to reflect the new meaning and to use it to hunt down where
they are used
. _PM_SEG_FLAG in fd replaces funny segment loading construction by
PM in FS
. _MAX_MAGIC_PROC is the highest used proc number, including magic
constants such as (currently) ANY, NONE and SELF, used by the
endpoint macros to make sure they are encoded properly and no valid
endpoint number ever encodes to it.
. rename proc_nr in address copy struct to proc_nr_e (endpoint)
via cause_sig() during an exception.
moved lock check configuration to <minix/sys_config.h> instead of
kernel/config.h, because the 'relocking' field in kinfo depends on it.
other prettification: common locking macro, whether lock timing is on or
not.
Implemented by changing write_map to accept a WMAP_FREE flag. In that
case, it doesn't update the datablock (creating indirect zones as
necessary) pointer, but it frees the datablock if present. Also it
frees the single and double indirect blocks if unused.
This makes the implementation of truncate_inode() simpler.
truncate_inode() now accepts a truncation length which makes
implementing truncate() and ftruncate() simple.
This also allowed implementing the F_FREESP fcntl().
OUTPUT_PROCS_ARRAY in <minix/config.h>, in that order, terminated by NONE.
log no longer forwards messages to tty itself. This leads to less funny
loops and more robust debug-message handling. Also the list of
processes receiving messages can easily be changed around or disabled by
editing the array (e.g. disable it by changing the array to { NONE }.).
