as we do system reset and reboot only from boot processor cpu0 now,
theres no need for active.rebooting conditional variable.
mpshutdown() will unconditionally park application processors and
and cpu0 boots the new kernel or calls mpshutdown() causing system
reset.
in vmware, mpshutdown() used to hang in i8042reset() when not
called from the boot processor, so instead of reseting from first
cpu that acquires the shutdown lock, we park all application
processors and let the boot processor do the reset.
procwrite() did truncate the offset to 32bit ulong.
introduce off2addr() function that does the sign
extension hack and use it conststently for Qmem
reads and writes.
for the CMclose procctl, the fd number was not
bounds checked before indexing in the Fgrp.fd
array.
for the CMclosefiles, we looped fd from 0..maxfd-1,
but need to loop from 0..maxfd as maxfd is inclusive.
newns() (called by auth_chuid()) already prepares the
environment variables and puts us in a sane working
directory (as specified by the namespace file).
on amd64, the text segment is aligned and padded to
2MB, but segment granularity is 4K which can give
us page faults that are beyond the highest file
offset. this is perfectly valid, but was not handled
correctly in pio().
use two per process memory slots, one for the
pid and one for the fd instead of a global table
avoiding the case when the table gets full.
instead of calling pread() on the cached fd
(dangerous as it has side effects when the
fd was not closed), we check if the cached fd
is still good using fd2path() when called
the first time in this process.
theres big performance regression with this using
cwfs. cwfs calls time() to update atime on every
read/write which now causes walks on /dev.
reverting to the previous version for now. in the
long run, we'll use new _nsec() syscall but this
has to wait for a later release once new kernels
are established.
trackers do like the new default Mozilla/5.0 (compatible)
user agent. so force useragent to hjdicks and give option
to override it in case trackers get even more clever in
the future.
in dhcpwatch, the sleep time "secs" could become
zero potentially freezing the lease time.
give up when in Sinit state in dhcpquery() as this
is a terminal state.
from the specification:
software may reset the entire HBA by setting GHC.HR to '1'.
When software sets the GHC.HR bit to '1', the HBA shall perform
an internal reset action. The bit shall be cleared to '0'
by the HBA when the reset is complete.
sites like google return the wrong characterset when
they do not recognize the user-agent. so setting default
user agent to something thats likely to pass these
idiotic browser tests.
