we have to wait for the pcmconv process to exit before
exiting yourselfs because otherwise pcmconv could
keep /dev/audio open and prevent further reopens for
a short period of time.
the rule that was used to copy header files from ../pc
accidently overwrote dat.h when ../pc/dat.h was updated
because it matched on all *.h files that was also found
in ../pc directory. change to exact match on $PCHEADERS
to prevent this.
problems that need to be addressed:
- reads in the whole /proc every second for no reason
- breaks when http server doesnt include Content-Length header
- length is wrong for continued download (-o option)
do not store Block* pointer in packet descriptor, assumed
pointer would fit in a long. we use pointer table now to
record the Block* pointer and store index instead.
old ramfs had a limit on the number of files it could serve
and file size was limited to maximum allocaiton size.
the new implementation uses multiple memory chunks to back file data
in a private compactable memory pool to overcome these limits.
files can be sparse. file metadata is maintained by 9pfile data
structures of lib9p.

netfd is initially zero (stdin), when filter() closes fd0,
fd0 is free to be reused. this causes problems with openmount()
that assumes sfd being >2.
instead, we dup the our pipe end over netfd, and close the pipe.
stringwidth() and string() sometimes failed spuriously due
to the wrong assumption that cachechars() will only fail
when a different subfont is needed. in fact, cachechars()
can fail for other reasons like when it resizes the fontcache
(or fails todo so).
theres also the case when loadchar() is unable to translate
a character and returns 0. this case needs to be differentiated
from such temporary conditions like fontcache resize or subfont
load to stop the retry loop in string() and stringwidth().
now cachechars() returns -1 to indicate that it cannot
proceed and we test this in string() and stringwidth()
to skip over untranslatable characters to make progress
instead of retrying.
when libmach is compiled with 6c, unions in the 32bit Uregs
cause fields to be wronly aligned. use #pragma pack arround
the #include "/$objtype/include/ureg.h" statement.
the comment about Physseg.size being in pages is wrong,
change type to uintptr and correct the comment.
change the length parameter of segattach() and isoverlap()
to uintptr as well. segments can grow over 4GB in pc64 now
and globalsegattach() in devsegment calculates len argument
of isoverlap() by s->top - s->bot. note that the syscall
still takes 32bit ulong argument for the length!
check for integer overflow in segattach(), make sure segment
goes not beyond USTKTOP.
change PTEMAPMEM constant to uvlong as it is used to calculate
SEGMAXSIZE.
previous change had forgot how dithering works... m(
we *really* add a random signal when *reducing* the number
of bits. just make sure we do not overflow like in
mixin().
the check in dither() was inverted. we should only
add noise when the output bit count is greater
than input bit count (samples shifted up) to
fill the lower zero bits produced by the shift.
simplifying paging code by getting rid of duppage(). instead,
fixfault() now always makes a copy of the shared/cached page
and leaves the cache alone. newpage() uncaches pages as
neccesary.
thanks charles forsyth for the suggestion.

1) handle errors when loading thumbprint file.
initThumbprints() now returns nil and sets errstr
on error. a syntax error in a thumbprint file
should be reported instead of silently ignored!
(have to check users)
2) fix memory leak in initThumbprints(); we have to use
freeThumbprints() instead of free to release crltab.
3) use the actual head entries for thumbprint
storage in the thumbprints array. most thumbprint
files are rather sparse.
4) remove private emalloc() function. we shouldnt
just exit the calling process on allocation error,
instead handle error properly. this is a library!
imagereclaim() sabotaged itself by breaking the invariant
that cached pages are kept at the end of the page list.
once we made a hole of uncached pages, we would stop
reclaiming cached pages before it as the loop breaks
once it hits a uncached page. (we iterate backwards from
the tail to the head of the pagelist until pages have been
reclaimed or we hit a uncached page).
the solution is to move pages to the head of the pagelist
after removing them from the image cache.
child processes handling the connection should be all
independent of each another and not share rendezvous
group. the rendezvous group sharing caused a bug in
exportfs when we switched from using pid to memory
address as rendezvous tag.
exportfs used pid of slave proc as rendezvous tag. when we
changed it to use Proc* memory address, there where tag
collisions because listen didnt fork the rendezvous group (bug!).
for now, just do rfork(RFREND) in main just in case.
will fix aux/listen in a follow up changeset.

from /n/sources/patch/blowfish/readme:
Blowfish is broken. The order of the bytes in the ciphertext
is wrong. The problem is the conversion from the ciphertext
plaintext block to the array of u32int used by the core funcions
and vice versa.
This code has been tested on big endian and little endian
machines.
A test program is also included, bftets.c. It uses the
test vectors of blowfish available at

amd64 passes first argument in RARG (BP) register
which has the be preserved duing _profin() and
_profout() calls. to handle this we introduce
_saveret() and _savearg(). _saveret() returns
AX, _savearg() returns RARG (BP). for archs other
and amd64, _saveret() and _savearg() are the
same function, doing nothing.
restoing works with dummy function:
uintptr
_restore(uintptr, uintptr ret)
{
return ret;
}
...
ret = _saveret();
arg = _savearg();
...
return _restore(arg, ret);
as we pass arg as the first argument, RARG (BP) is
restored.
