This new implementation of the UDS service is built on top of the
libsockevent library. It thereby inherits all the advantages that
libsockevent brings. However, the fundamental restructuring
required for that change also paved the way for resolution of a
number of other important open issues with the old UDS code. Most
importantly, the rewrite brings the behavior of the service much
closer to POSIX compliance and NetBSD compatibility. These are the
most important changes:
- due to the use of libsockevent, UDS now supports multiple suspending
calls per socket and a large number of standard socket flags and
options;
- socket address matching is now based on <device,inode> lookups
instead of canonized path names, and socket addresses are no longer
altered either due to canonization or at connect time;
- the socket state machine is now well defined, most importantly
resolving the erroneous reset-on-EOF semantics of the old UDS, but
also allowing socket reuse;
- sockets are now connected before being accepted instead of being
held in connecting state, unless the LOCAL_CONNWAIT option is set
on either the connecting or the listening socket;
- connect(2) on datagram sockets is now supported (needed by syslog),
and proper datagram socket disconnect notification is provided;
- the receive queue now supports segmentation, associating ancillary
data (in-flight file descriptors and credentials) with each segment
instead of being kept fully separately; this is a POSIX requirement
(and needed by tmux);
- as part of the segmentation support, the receive queue can now hold
as many packets as can fit, instead of one;
- in addition to the flags supported by libsockevent, the MSG_PEEK,
MSG_WAITALL, MSG_CMSG_CLOEXEC, MSG_TRUNC, and MSG_CTRUNC send and
receive flags are now supported;
- the SO_PASSCRED and SO_PEERCRED socket options are replaced by
LOCAL_CREDS and LOCAL_PEEREID respectively, now following NetBSD
semantics and allowing use of NetBSD libc's getpeereid(3);
- memory usage is reduced by about 250 KB due to centralized in-flight
file descriptor tracking, with a limit of OPEN_MAX total rather than
of OPEN_MAX per socket;
- memory usage is reduced by another ~50 KB due to removal of state
redundancy, despite the fact that socket path names may now be up to
253 bytes rather than the previous 104 bytes;
- compared to the old UDS, there is now very little direct indexing on
the static array of sockets, thus allowing dynamic allocation of
sockets more easily in the future;
- the UDS service now has RMIB support for the net.local sysctl tree,
implementing preliminary support for NetBSD netstat(1).

The getnucred() function was used by UDS to obtain credentials of user
processes in a form used in the UDS API, namely the ucred structure.
Since the NetBSD merge, this structure has changed drastically (aside
from being renamed to "uucred"), and it is no longer in UDS's best
interest to use this structure internally. Therefore, getnucred() is
no longer a useful API either, and instead we directly use the
previously private getepinfo() function to obtain credentials.

Instead, filter it in libc for old networking implementations, as
those do not support sending SIGPIPE to user processes anyway. This
change allows newer socket drivers to implement the flag as per the
specification.

- switch to the NetBSD identifier system; it is not only better, but
also required for porting NetBSD ipcs(1) and ipcrm(1); however, it
requires that slots not be moved, and that results in some changes;
- synchronize some other things with NetBSD: where keys are kept, as
well as various non-permission mode flags;
- fix semctl(2) vararg retrieval and message field type;
- use SUSPEND instead of weird reply exceptions in the call table;
- fix several memory leaks and at least one missing permission check;
- improve the atomicity of semop(2) by a small amount, even though
its atomicity is still broken at a fundamental level;
- use the new cheaper way to retrieve the current time;
- resolve all level-5 LLVM warnings.

Now that uname(3) uses sysctl(2), we no longer need sysuname(2).
Backward compatibility is retained for old statically linked
binaries for a short while.
Also remove the now-obsolete MINIX3-specific "arch" field from the
utsname structure. While this is an ABI break at the libc level,
it should pose no problems in practice, because:
- statically linked programs (i.e., all of the base system) are not
affected, as they will use headers synchronized with libc;
- the structure is getting smaller, thus, older dynamically linked
programs (typically in pkgsrc) using the new libc will end up with
garbage in the "arch" field, but it is unlikely they will use this
field anyway, since it was specific to MINIX3;
- new dynamically linked programs using an old libc could end up with
memory corruption, but this is not a scenario that is expected to
occur in the first place - certainly not with programs from pkgsrc.

The new MIB service implements the sysctl(2) system call which, as
we adopt more NetBSD code, is an increasingly important part of the
operating system API. The system call is implemented in the new
service rather than as part of an existing service, because it will
eventually call into many other services in order to gather data,
similar to ProcFS. Since the sysctl(2) functionality is used even
by init(8), the MIB service is added to the boot image.
MIB stands for Management Information Base, and the MIB service
should be seen as a knowledge base of management information.
The MIB service implementation of the sysctl(2) interface is fairly
complete; it incorporates support for both static and dynamic nodes
and imitates many NetBSD-specific quirks expected by userland. The
patch also adds trace(1) support for the new system call, and adds
a new test, test87, which tests the fundamental operation of the
MIB service rather thoroughly.

- Replace minix/commands/zdump with usr.bin/zdump
- external/bsd/libelf has moved to /external/bsd/elftoolchain/
- Import ctwm
- Drop sprintf from libminc

There are currently no devices out there that require this change.
The change is merely needed to support subsequent changes.

Alternatives should be considered (such as changing our keymaps to
better match NetBSD) in due time, but for now, the current default

The goal is to prevent a name collision with the expected mount/umount
function signatures, if we decide one day to allow any application
using those to work on MINIX.
At this moment the caller has to start the required services, but if we
implement that logic inside the mount/unmout function, this would allow
any application to call those function successfully.
By renaming those now, we prevent a possible ABI break in the future.

This cause in some software to assume we are linux, as this is rightly
only used there.
By default hide it behind _MINIX_SYSTEM, until we have removed traces
of it from getpeereid/[gs]etsocketopt and replaced it by the NetBSD
mechanism.

Currently we don't accept writable file mmap()s, as there is no
system in place to guarantee dirty buffers would make it back to
disk. But we can actually accept MAP_SHARED for PROT_READ mappings,
meaning the ranges aren't writable at all (and no private copy is
made as with MAP_PRIVATE), as it turns out a fairly large class of
usage.
. fail writable MAP_SHARED mappings at runtime
. reduces some minix-specific patches
. lets binutils gold build on minix without further patching

. define _MINIX_SYSTEM for all system code from minix.service.mk
. hide some system-level declarations and definitions
behind _MINIX_SYSTEM to cleanly fix host tool build problems on
Minix (such as: NONE being defined and paddr_t being used but not
declared)
. the similar definition _SYSTEM is unsuitable as it changes the
values of errno definitions

This fcntl requests all cached blocks associated with the minor device
number associated with the regular file are invalidated. If the file
is a block special, invalidate the blocks associated with that minor
device instead.
This is to be used for a test that tests unmapped file-mapped memory
ranges whose blocks are not in the cache and therefore must be fetched
from a FS.

- Fix for default mtree style
- Update libelf
- Importing libexecinfo
- Resynchronize GCC, mpc, gmp, mpfr

printing it on the console.

Well, make a start, anyway. Our copy was missing a legacy field from
the structure, that could very well cause applications to fail trying
to set, clear, or check it. As a consequence, SUN_LEN now yields the
same result as on NetBSD.
