The next commit will make mode_t 32-bits, ino_t 64-bits, nlink_t
32-bits, and off_t 64-bits. However, in the protocol there is no
room for that.
When analyzing the usage of these data types we can see that of
mode_t we currently use 15 bits and that future flags (if copied
from NetBSD) are only of importance to VFS and not to the actual
file system on disk. Therefore we can get away with keeping the
protocol version of mode_t (pmode_t) 16 bits.
At this point it is unlikely that MINIX will support file systems
that can hold more than 2^32 files. Keeping the protocol version of
ino_t (pino_t) 32-bits and exposing it as 64-bits to the rest of the
system is fine.
uid_t and gid_t are already 32-bits, but in behind the scenes they're
16-bits. This is sufficient since we don't support uid/gids larger
than 2^16-1.
off_t will become 64-bits, but the protocol had room reserved
for that since it was revised years ago.
So to make the difference clear between what the protocol supports
and what is exposed to the system, we define protocol version of
these data types.

By adding versioning we have a handle on ABI breaking changes in
the protocol or system wide data structures. As of this commit the
protocol version is 0 in order to be compatible with File Servers
that are not yet aware of versioning.

Fix warnings about:
. Unused variables
. format mismatch in printf/scanf format string and arguments
. Missing parenthesis around assignment as truth values
. Clang warnings anout unknown GCC pragma
The tested targets are the followgin ones:
* tools
* distribution
* sets
* release
The remaining NetBSD targets have not been disabled nor tested
*at all*. Try them at your own risk, they may reboot the earth.
For all compliant Makefiles, objects and generated files are put in
MAKEOBJDIR, which means you can now keep objects between two branch
switching. Same for DESTDIR, please refer to build.sh options.
Regarding new or modifications of Makefiles a few things:
* Read share/mk/bsd.README
* If you add a subdirectory, add a Makefile in it, and have it called
by the parent through the SUBDIR variable.
* Do not add arbitrary inclusion which crosses to another branch of
the hierarchy; If you can't do without it, put a comment on why.
If possible, do not use inclusion at all.
* Use as much as possible the infrastructure, it is here to make
life easier, do not fight it.
Sets and package are now used to track files.
We have one set called "minix", composed of one package called "minix-sys"
. all invocations were S or D, so can safely be dropped
to prepare for the segmentless world
. still assign D to the SCP_SEG field in the message
to make previous kernels usable
WARNING: this will break existing dynamically linked binaries if they
exist. If you have any:
. re-build world statically first if necessary
. remove libraries from /lib and /usr/lib
. then build world
This change:
. avoids possible future dismay when interfacing other
systems' binaries; done until they are abi-compatible
Thanks to Antoine Leca for pointing this out.
building defaults to off until clang is updated.
current clang does not handle -shared, necessary to change the ld
invocation to build shared libraries properly. a new clang should be
installed and MKPIC defaults to no unless the newer clang is detected.
changes:
. mainly small imports of a Makefile or two and small fixes
(turning things back on that were turned off in Makefiles)
. e.g.: dynamic librefuse now depends on dynamic
libpuffs, so libpuffs has to be built dynamically too
and a make dependency barrier is needed in lib/Makefile
. all library objects now have a PIC (for .so) and non-PIC
version, so everything is built twice.
. generate PIC versions of the compat (un-RENAMEd) jump files,
include function type annotation in generated assembly
. build progs with -static by default for now
. also build ld.elf_so
. also import NetBSD ldd
Import libpuffs and our port of libpuffs. The port was done as part of
GSoC 2011 FUSE project, done by Evgeniy Ivanov. The librefuse import
did not require any porting efforts. Libpuffs has been modified to
understand our VFS-FS protocol and translate between that and PUFFS. As
an example that it works, fuse-ntfs-3g from pkgsrc can be compiled and
used to mount ntfs partitions:
mount -t ntfs-3g <device> <mountpoint>
FUSE only works with the asynchronous version of VFS. See <docs/UPDATING> on
how to run AVFS.
This patch further includes some changes to mount(1) and mount(2) so it's
possible to use file systems provided by pkgsrc (note: manual modifications
to /etc/system.conf are still needed. There has been made an exception for
fuse-ntfs-3g, so it already as an entry).
