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.
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
If we tokenize the register file contents in a static buffer,
we can avoid having to duplicate the register names.
All callers to rpoke() provide constant register arguments
so they also do not need to be duplicated.
Now that we have these new functions,
we can also make them return an error
instead of calling sysfatal() like
postmountsrv().
Remove the confusing Srv.srvfd, as it
is only temporarily used and return
it from postsrv() instead.
Resample is well known for taking a long time to resize an image. This
patch brings an important performance boost (in my test image, time
was reduced from ~2850ms to ~500ms). It does that by extracting FP
multiplication and division out of the innermost loop of
resamplex/resampley.
The results differ slightly from the current implementation: in my
test: ~0.3% of the bytes had a ±2 difference in their value, which I
attribute to rounding errors. I'm personally not concerned with that
deviation, given the performance gains. However, I recommend testing
it just to be sure I didn't overlook anything.

The patch does the following:
1. Adds recognition of executable script (shebang) files.
2. Returns correct MIME type for mbox files (RFC 4155).
3. Returns XML instead of HTML type in some cases.

description:
When an imap fetch fails, it's helpful at times to know the underlying
cause. This provides more details by providing the underlying error
message.
unlike other tools like iconv(1), a crop(1) without arguments or with
ones resulting in a no-op, like `-t 0 0', errors out. other options
like `-i 0' do not error. this breaks assumptions and results in
tedious intermediary steps or hacks like:
foo | {crop -t $1 $2 >[2]/null || cat} > baz.bit
instead, just ignore the check. subsequent code doesn't make
assumptions on that.
This patch adds dirmodefmt from fcall.h to pretty-print file
permissions, similarly to ls -l. I didn't notice any performance
degradation.
I hope no-one relied on the old behaviour.
To reproduce the suicide try running the following in acme:
• 'Edit B <ls lib'
by select and middle clicking in a window that is in your $home.
There is a very high chance acme will commit suicide like this:
<snip>

echo kill>/proc/333310/ctl # acme
cpu% acid 333310
/proc/333310/text:amd64 plan 9 executable

</snap>
The suicide issue is caused by the following chain of events:
• /sys/src/cmd/acme/ecmd.c:/^edittext is called at
/sys/src/cmd/acme/xfid.c:479 passing nil as its first parameter:
<snip>
...
case QWeditout:
r = fullrunewrite(x, &nr);
if(w)
err = edittext(w, w->wrselrange.q1, r, nr);
else
err = edittext(nil, 0, r, nr);
^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^
...
</snap>
...and /sys/src/cmd/acme/ecmd.c:/^edittext dereferences the
first parameter that is *nil* at the first statement:
<snip>
char*
edittext(Window *w, int q, Rune *r, int nr)
{
File *f;
f = w->body.file;
^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^
This will crash if 'w' is *nil*
switch(editing){
...
</snap>
Moving the the derefernce of 'w' into the case where it is
needed (see above patch) fixes the suicude.
The memory leak is fixed in /sys/src/cmd/acme/ecmd.c:/^filelist. The
current implementation of filelist(...) breaks its contract with its
caller, thereby leading to a memory leak in /sys/src/cmd/acme/ecmd.c:/^B_cmd
and /sys/src/cmd/acme/ecmd.c:/^D_cmd.
The contract /sys/src/cmd/acme/ecmd.c:/^filelist seems to have with
its callers is that in case of success it fills up a 'collection' that
callers can then clear with a call to clearcollection(...).
The fix above honours this contract and thereby removes the leak.
After you apply the patch the following two tests should succeed:
• Execute by select and middle click in a Tag:
'Edit B lib/profile'
• Execute by select and middle click in a Tag:
'Edit B <ls lib'
The former lead to a resource leak that is now fixed.
The latter lead to a suicide that is now fixed by moving the statement
that dereferences the parameter to the location where it is needed,
which is not the path used in the case of 'Edit B <ls'.
Cheers,
Igor
The expression value of the assignment operation was
returned implicitely by relying on regalloc() on the
right hand side "nod" borrowing the register from nn.
But this only works if nn is a register.
In case of 6c, it can also be a ONAME from a .safe
rathole returned by regsalloc().
This change adds explicit gmove() calls to assign the
expression value. Note that gmove() checks if source
and destination are the same register so it wont emit
redundant move operations in the common case.
The same is applied also to OPREINC and OPOSTINC operations.
Mutating lists that are being iterated is needlessly error
prone, and we were removing the wrong message in some cases
if it the dummy got inserted in the right place.
Separating deletion into a redraw/relink and zap phase
simplifies the problem.
Switching window focus used to be non deterministic
as the current window in focus (Window *input) was set
concurrently while processing window messages such as
Resized and Topped.
This implements a new approach where wcurrent() and
wuncurrent() are responsible for the synchronization
and switch of the input.
It is implemented by sending a Repaint message to the
old input window first, neccesarily waiting until that
window releases the focus and then input is updated
and then a Topped or Reshaped message is send to the
new input window.
Note, that when the whole screen is resized that no
input changes need to happening anymore.
When deleting messages that came in just
the right order, we would end up stuck in
a loop deleting and reinserting a dummy
parent, rather than the messages we wanted
to remove.
Sacrifice some of the sub-millisecond timer precision in favor of less
cpu load when the timer is about to be kicked a bit early. Result is
visible *especially* when the guest idling.
Timer proc *still* has to send to the channel (in order to kick PIT
and RTC logic), which takes time, and compensates a bit for possibly
early runs.
tftpd currently unconditionally sets its namespace via /lib/namespace
(newns("none", nil)), which stymied my attempts to pxe boot the
openbsd installer without creating a real /etc dir on 9front, which
would've been gross.
I tried working around this with -h (and -r for good measure), but
again hit issues because the namespace is rebuilt from scratch -- any
binds of /386, /amd64, /cfg/pxe, etc. into the tftp-specific directory
disappeared from tftpd's namespace and rendered my *9front* boxes
unable to boot. I could maintain copies of the needed files in the
tftp-specific directory, but that'd be kind of a drag.
The following patch adds a -n flag to allow the specification of a
namespace file in place of /lib/namespace; similar to ip/ftpd.
I thought about setting up a /lib/namespace.tftp to act as a default
rather than continuing to use /lib/namespace by default (which
security-wise is about the same as allowing 9p mounts by user none,
which I also have disabled), but I had trouble coming up with a sane
default. Maybe someone more experienced would like to try that out.

When the save folder did not exist, and we could not create
it, we would handle up to one Biobuf worth of message, and
then fail, due to a failed tee. The sequence of events leading
up to this was:
openfolder() -> error
tee(0, fd, -1) -> wait for read
write(0, data) ->
write(fd, data) -> ok
write(-1, data) -> error, tee terminates
write(0, attachment) -> error
This change prevents us from writing to a closed fd, and
therefore from erroring out when sending.
We also warn the user.

I think I found a reason for DNS failing on known good domains.
/sys/src/cmd/ndb/dns.h:156,157
/* tune; was 60*1000; keep it short */
Maxreqtm= 8*1000, /* max. ms to process a request */
So, 8 seconds is how much the resolver will bother with a request it
has been handed, before dropping it on the floor with little
explanation.
It seems quite possible that this is too short a timeout on a machine
during a spam queue run, which predictably stresses the compute and
network resources.
In turn, negative response caching might explain why a particular
unlucky domain would basically stop receiveing any mail for a while.
I'm dying to know if bumping this limit would clear up the queue of
such DNS errors.

fseeko returns 0 on success, not the new stream position.
This allows flacenc to update the streaminfo block when it is finished
(for example to set the number of samples and checksum).
There may be two iso endpoints with the same ID if it is asynchronous
or adaptive (one for data, one for feedback), and rw iso endpoints are
unusable (error out with "iso i/o is half-duplex").

validateattachment has no business with the mime boundary; it is not
part of the attachment itself.
Also, it causes the boundary to be dropped in the message output from
upas/vf, effectively dropping the following attachment (though the
content is still present after the last boundary of the wrapped first
attachment part).
Consider the following sequence of events:
1. upas/vf is run on a message containing two attachments.
2. The first attachment does not have a known extension, so is saved
to a temporary file *including* the following mime boundary.
3. This file is opened as p->tmpbuf, which is used for subsequent
reads until switching back to stdin.
4. The attachment fails validateattachment, so upas/vf wraps it in a
multipart with a warning message.
5. problemchild() calls passbody(p, 0), which copies from p->tmpbuf
until it hits the outer boundary line, which it excludes, seeks
back one line, then returns the outer multipart.
6. problemchild() then writes its own boundary, and then copies one
line from *stdin* to stdout, expecting the outer boundary.
However, this boundary was already read from stdin in 2, so it ends
up reading the first line of the subsequent part instead.
To fix this, pass 0 to passbody() in save() to exclude it from the
attachment file and make it available in stdin when expected.
Reading nested subparts of messages into the root
message array allows deeply nested multipart trees
of messages to show correctly in the message view.
upas/vf was converted to use tmdate, but the formatter was never
installed. This caused it to send attachments to validateattachment
with header `From virusfilter %τ%`, which always failed since upas/fs
would just skip over the message.
The old parser code was rubbish and only worked for trivial
expressions. The new code properly handles complex expressions,
including short circuit evaluation.
As such, the BUGS section has been removed from the test(1) man page.
The description of an unimplemented feature has also been removed.
Despite pervious efforts, mk clean still doesn't remove libcommon.a*
files from cmd/upas/common/. To fix this, let's tell cmd/mklib to do
the job instead.
Runq spawns a number of processes, and wait()s for them
in 2 different places. Because of the way that the exit
handling is done, the wait can get the wrong message.
It turns out that only one place in the code needs to
wait for the child, and in all other cases, it's just
muddling the problem.
This change adds the RFNOWAIT call to all the processes
we don't need to wait for, so that the places that do
need wait will always get the correct child.
Screenlock should use libdraw(2) to init the display
and create the window, instead of looking at the screen
file directly. Also, to prevent new windows from popping
up over screenlock, bring it to the top periodically.
on arm32, we can do one of 4 shifts
by a constant:
reg<<(0..31)
reg>>(1..32)
((u32int)reg)>>(1..32)
reg ROT (0..31)
There's no way to encode a 0 bit right
shift, so when encoding reg>>0, flip
it to the equivalent nop reg<<0, which
can be encoded.
This prevents an incorrect warning for a comparison such as `0 < x`,
where x is an unsigned type. Previously, this would get normalized as
`x >= 0` rather than `x > 0` when checking the comparison.
With ntlm auth, we were trying to set 0 bytes of
the auth struct to its size. The args were clearly
swapped. Fix it.
While we're here, remove some dead code.
When running a mail queue, it's useful to run it with limited
parallelism. This helps mailing lists process messages in a
reasonable time.
At the same time, we can remove the load balancing from runq,
since the kinds of systems that this matters on no longer
exist, and running multiple queues at once can be better
done through xargs.
Querying battery (or temperature) using ACPI takes quite some
resources, which makes the battery discharge faster. It doesn't make
much sense to have it queried as often either. So, when using ACPI:
1) set battery query period to 10s minimum
2) set temperature query period to 5s minimum
When invoking with dd with an invalid size suffix, we
silently accept the suffix. This can lead to confusion,
because lines like:
dd -bs 1K
dd -bs 1m
will silently copy in 1-byte increments. This has caught
people by surprise. While we're at it, megabytes are
convenient, so let's have them too.
Passwd used to produce a very confusing error
about DES not being enabled whenever the password
was mistyped. This happened because we attempted
to guess what authentication method to use, and
preseneted the error from the wrong one on failure.
This puts the legacy mode behind a flag, so that
we don't even try the old method unless it's
explicitly requested.
when loading large binaries such as netsurf, with many
symbols, our hash table fills up with collisions and
loading the symbol table gets very slow. Bumping it up
drops the time to lstk() in acid on netsurf from 4 minutes
to 8 seconds.
Call exits(0) instead of returning from main. Also call sysfatal if
writing of image data fails. Previously, qr(1) would exit with
default non-nil status "main" unconditionally as a result of returning
from main.

vt sets several environment variables ($TERM, $COLS, $LINES)
after exiting. This change rforks the environment so that this
detritus doesn't get left behind.
The initial protocol handling in exportfs for
cpu and import services is a huge mess.
Saparate the code out into its own program with
its own oexportfs(4) manpage.
The -v flag now does not create a new rio window,
while -w flag does (restores the old behaviour).
This allows vmx to run under vncs and is in general
mode aligned to other emulators and programs.
