by hacking on locked buffers without getblk()ing them, and we didn't
even use splbio() to prevent biodone() changing the buffer underneath
use when a write completes. I think there was no problem in practice
on i386's because the operations on b_flags and numdirtybufs happen to
be atomic. We still depend on biodone()'s operations on b_flags not
interfering with ours. I think there is only interference for B_ERROR,
and this is harmless because errors for async writes are ignored anyway.
Don't use mark_buffer_dirty() except for superblock-related metadata.
It was used in just one case where ordinary BSD buffering is more
natural.
to not using splbio(), and has rotted a little. The races were
probably harmless in practice because this function was only used
for superblock updates, and separate superblock updates are probably
prevented from running into each other by doing part of the update
synchronously.
end of the main options section.
Turned on documented option OVERRIDE_TUNER. LINT is primarily
for turning on options, not for documenting them.
Don't list IPFILTER twice (once as broken).
which makes adjtime(2) useless and confuses xntpd(8) into refusing
to start even when it would use the kernel PLL instead of adjtime().
The result is the same as recommended by tickadj(8), at least when
HZ divides 10^6. Of course, you wouldn't want to actually use
adjtime() when HZ is large. In the silly boundary case of HZ == 10^6,
tickadj == tick == 1 so the clock stops while adjtime() is active.
mmioctl() to fix hundreds of style bugs and a few error handling bugs
(don't check for superuser privilege for inappropriate ioctls, don't
check the input arg for the output-only MEM_RETURNIRQ ioctl, and don't
return EPERM for null changes).
doesn't work with libc/net/res_stubs.c since gas wants the weak reference
to take place in the same context as the real definition, presumably so
that it can get hold of the symbol typing etc.
However, this doesn't matter for libc/elf since we don't have binaries
that use the old symbol names.
`void *' arg. Fixed or hid most of the resulting type mismatches.
Handlers can now be updated locally (except for reworking their
global declarations in isa_device.h).
Don't generate declarations for isa interrupt handlers at all.
Isa interrupt handlers are now declared in <i386/isa/isa_device.h>
but should be converted take a `void *' arg and staticized as
soon as possible.
Updated CONFIGVERS. New configs are very incompatible with
previous versions.
and don't depend on them being declared there. This will cause lots of
warnings for a few minutes until config is updated. Interrupt handlers
should never have been configured by config, and the machine generated
declarations get in the way of changing the arg type from int to void *.
