- in mount_portal.c: included catching of SIGHUP to get portald to
re-read the config file.
- in mount_portal.c: in SIGCHLD handler the return values checked from
waitpid were wrong. Note. this routine was written correclty according
to the manual page for 4.4BSD, but waitpid does not exhibit this
behaviour. It is not returning 0 when WNOHANG is specified. I havent
checked this properly.
- in mount_portal.c: initialized the fdset for the select properly.
- in mount_portal.c: corrected poor casting in the select.
- in mount_portal.c: changed a break; to exit (0); so that the
children die after doing the hard work, this stops the select: bad
file descriptor messages.
- in pt_file.c: the kernel passes kernel style open flags to the
portal code which aren't compatible with "normal" O_ flags. I have
adjusted these in pt_file.c. In general I think the portal fs code
and portal_cred structure need changing to pass to the portald
the right style of flags _and_ the permissions.
- in pt_tcp.c: a few mistakes in typing of the socket structures,
getservbyname returns the port number as an int but sockaddr wants
the port number as an u_short.
- in pt_tcp.c: someone wrote this on a VAX/Sun whatever and forget
about byte ordering!! I've included a few htons about the place.
- in all the above I have sprinkled a few more debugging printf's.

don't belong in a disklabel in the first place.
to open the mounted block device containing the directory to put the bad
sector files in, and opening of mounted block devices hasn't been allowed
since Net/2 or before. Attempt to open the raw device instead. Be more
careful about long names.
Use lstat() instead of stat() to search for block devices so that my
symlink to the default floppy doesn't cause problems.
Check for truncation of the block number when it is squeezed through the
mknod() interface. The maximum used to be only 32767, but now it large
enough.
you to push the same host into its NFS export lists twice, but mountd
tries to do it anyway. This means that putting:
/some_file_system -ro host1 host1
in your /etc/exports file causes an error. This is bogus: mountd should be
smart enough to ignore the second instance of host1. This can be a problem
in some configurations that use netgroups. For example, each host in my
netgroups database is has two entries:
startide (startide,-,) (startide.ctr.columbia.edu,-,)
When mountd sees this, it tries to put startide.ctr.columbia.edu into the
export list *twice*. Just listing 'startide' /etc/exports list will also
screw up because mountd will try to resolve the netgroup 'startide' instead
of the hostname 'startide.'
My solution is watch for duplicate entries in get_host() and mark them
as grouptype GT_IGNORE, which do_mount() will now cheefully throw away.
This is a bit of a kludge, but it was the least obtrusive fix I could
come up with.
Also silenced a compiler warning: arguments passwd to xdr_long() should
be u_long, not int. :)
in the man page. ifconfig -au affects all interfaces marked as up,
and ifconfig -ad affects only the interfaces marked down. ifconfig -a

SunOS, for those who might be accustomed to the SunOS ifconfig's
behavior.
established. This way, automatic scripts are possible that might
control the SLIP connection. It's unacceptable for a daemon that's
being controlled by a variety of signals to not leave its PID
somewhere. The file name contains the terminal path name component of
the associated tty device, so it should be unique even with multiple
parallel slattach's running. The file will be unlinked at regular exit.
Also found a minor bug in the option handling by compiling with -Wall.

to be able to see the total number of sectors more than edit it. The
default d_secperunit of (sectors/track * tracks/cylinder * cylinders) is
bogus if sectors/track is only an approximation and more bogus if
sectors/track and tracks/cylinder are dummy values such as 4096 and 1

that of maxfilesperproc is maxfiles (untill maxfile will disappear)
Now it is at least possible to prohibit one user opening maxfiles

We pretend we have one head with two megabyte worth of sectors per cylinder.
The code try to access another head in what it belives to the same
physical cylinder, because it belives that it would be faster than
waiting for the next free sector under this head to come around.
Most modern drives doesn't have a "classical" geometry, and thus
we end up fooling ourselves doing the above optimization. With this
change we will fill a cylinder sequentially if we can, and thus get
much more mileage from the track-buffer/cache built into the drives.
As a result a lot of seeks to the next or previous track should be
avoided by this.
(My disk is a lot less noisy actually...)
You can still get the old behaviour, by specifying zero for the
numbers.
This will also solve the problem with newfs barfing at really big
drives.

Include bteasy, bootsd, sdboot and termcap entries using file2.c
Remove all traces of "termcap.small".
The policy in this program regarding termcap is:
| If $TERM is set
| do nothing special, rely on usual termcap.
| else
| use compiled in (via file2c) termcap entries
misfeature caused troubles when a program attempted to access a shlib
where one with a higher minor number has been hashed. Ldconfig does
only include the highest-numbered shlib anyway, so this is in no way a
limitation of generality.
Caution: after installing the new programs, your /var/run/ld.so.hints
needs to be rebuiult; run ldconfig again as it's done from /etc/rc.
We have only one firewall chain and one accounting chain now.
No blocking/forwarding so commands changed.
Man pages are somewhat out of date and will be updated ASAP.
- The -a flag now works just as it does in SunOS: '-a' is actually
handled like a wildcard for all interfaces. 'ifconfig -a' displays
the status of all interfaces, 'ifconfig -a netmask 0xffffff00' sets
the netmask of all interfaces, and so forth. I don't know if many
people really need to be able to set the netmasks of all interfaces
at once, but the SunOS ifconfig seems to allow this, so there you
have it.
- An 'ether_status' function has been added to display the ethernet
address of all ethernet interfaces. Again, as in SunOS, you must
be root in order for this to work. The ethernet address is read
from /dev/kmem using kvm_open() and kvm_read(), much in the same
was as it's done with netstat. If you choose to install ifconfig
set-gid kmem then normal users will be able to see the ethernet
address as well, though this may not be desireable. This feature
requires a small change to the ifconfig Makefile: you need to link
with -lkvm in order to use the kvm_*() functions.
