It's not fatal for someone else to push a branch
with objects that we don't have. We should deal
with it gracefully, and act as though it doesn't
exist.
In showlist, call bwindata instead of bwinopen in order to use a
pre-existing fd to write to the data file. This existing fd will
properly honour any address set by a previous write to the addr file.
Specifically, the redraw function sets addr to "," before calling
showlist in order to overwrite the entire contents of the window.
This is implemented by checking first if the uri is
a directory containing the .git/ subdirectory.
If this is the case, we fork git/serve serving the
repository on a pipe.
We weren't giving all objects to the twixt() function, and
it was making bad life choices -- gambling, smoking, drinking,
and packing in too much data.
With more information, it doesn't do the last.
For 64-bit architectures, the a.out header has the HDR_MAGIC flag set
in the magic and is expanded by 8 bytes containing the 64-bit virtual
address of the programs entry point. While Exec.entry contains physical
address for kernel images.
Our sysexec() would always use Exec.entry, even for 64-bit a.out binaries,
which worked because PADDR(entry) == entry for userspace pointers.
This change fixes it, having the kernel use the 64-bit entry point
and document the behaviour in the manpage.
The 9p debug server was broken as it assumed the first
tree file added would have a qid of 0 (it has a qid
of 1 as the root directory is using 0 already).
Instead, just compare File* pointers and get rid of
the table (less code).
When passing 64-bit unsigned addresses as 64-bit signed
file offsets, we have to make sure to not pass negative
offsets (filtered out by kernel and lib9p)!
This is solved by clearing and sign bit in encoding and
63-bit sign extension on decoding.
Make the mem file writable (needed for acid).
The 9p debug server provided a single directory containing
mem and regs files. This patch renames the regs file
(which is in vmx specific text format) to "xregs" and
adds "regs" and "kregs" file which use the same format
as exported by the kernels /proc filesystem.
This allows one to bind the vmx directory over a proc
directory and attach acid to a running system like:
mount -b /srv/vmx /proc/1
acid -k -lkernel 1 /sys/src/9/pc64/9pc64
