Some gba cartridges use flash chips produced by a few different
manufacturers for backup memory. A game rom may then try to read the
device id for its flash chip and break if it's the wrong one. There's
no way for us to know which chip is supposed to be there, save for
looking it up in some database. These chips are either 64k or 128k
big. gba(1) hardcodes the id for the SST 64k chip, but games like the
Pokémon ones use a 128k Macronix chip and expect a different id,
completely breaking them.
This patch sets a different default for 128k flash backups, and gives
the ability to set the exact type when creating the save file if it's
really necessary. This new default fixes the Pokémons. The type is
saved in the save file, but this will *not* break existing ones. It
may be that we don't need to worry about the type and just have an id
that corresponds to the right chip size, which is why these defaults
make sense, but I haven't tested more than a dozen roms, mostly since
I don't really know which games use 128k flash.
Before applying this patch the following will fail to open ed
in the '/tmp/s p a c e' folder:
<snip>
% mkdir '/tmp/s p a c e'
% window -cd '/tmp/s p a c e' ed
!pwd
/tmp/s p a c e
!
q
<snap>
After applying the patch the above sequence works as expected,
opening ed in the '/tmp/s p a c e' folder, printing the present
working directory, and quitting ed.
The root cause was a faulty computation of the pointer `s`,
being off by one, leading to any arguments after the
directory path to be skipped.

Thanks umbraticus for finding and reporting the issue.
The device address is highly variable and depends on
all prior enumerated devices.
This can happen with some devices that do not have
a serial number and all devices of the same type
having the same hname.
Using a counter of collisions per hname makes more sense
and is more stable (given that the order devices are
enumerated is deterministic).
This allows mapping incoming filenames to a different name
using regular expressions, followed by subtitutions
of the %[ICE] format strings.
I needed this to have individual cmdline.txt files for
netbooted raspberry pi's. In this example, i map cmdline.txt
to %C, which gets substituted for /cfg/pxe/$ether of the client.
When grep gets a single file argument, it does
not show the file name. This makes seeing the
file name in the output of 'g' difficult.
Pass a spare /dev/null to each invocation of g,
in order to force it to show the file name.
The transitional PCI device ID for block devices is 0x1001, and the
virtio spec says that devices must have the transitional device ID or
0x1040 + the virtio device ID (2).
Mothra does not currently render text inside <samp> tags inline
similar to <code>, but instead treats them like <pre> which is actually
incorrect behavior. The following small patch should fixes issue.
Sometimes, there is the one-off occation when one needs to
pass a huge list in rc...
This change makes devenv track total memory consumption
of environment groups allowing them to grow up to 1MB in
size (including overhead).
(Before, only the variable size was restricted, but
not the amount of files being created).
The maximum value size of a single environment variable
is set to half of the total size, which allows the
occational large value. (But not many of them).
Because we track all memory consuption, it is also
now possible to create around 10k small environment
variales.
A hashtable is added for name lookups and the qid.path
was changed to allow direct indexing into the entry
array without needing a scan lookup.
All smalloc() calls have been removed, exhaustion is
handled with error(Enomem) avoiding deadlock
in case we run out of kernel memory.
This does not have any adverse effect, since yylex never calls mpatov
with a string with leading 0 (and not 0x) that contains non-octal
digits, but the condition was wrong regardless.
Strings for existing codes in the most used server (OpenSSH) just
repeat the error code name. OTOH we like to have wording of the
strings under our control as much as possible, so we can easier find
and process them. Error strings are still usefull as fallback for
compatibility with future versions of the server.
- fix showpage1 only decrementing proc counter once limit is reached;
this blocked having more than one loadpages process after NPROC calls,
since the next one has to wait until the last has exited
- allow procs to skip pages currently being loaded by others; this
forced processes to wait for each other at the same page
- bump NPROC from 4 to 8
- (hack) immediately fork a few times after adding all pages at
startup to force loading a batch of pages in parallel
To avoid a MAXMACH limit of 32 and make
txtflush into an array for the bitmap.
Provide portable macros for testing and clearing
the bits: needtxtflush(), donetxtflush().
On pc/pc64, define inittxtflush()/settxtflush()
as no-op macros, avoiding the storage overhead of
the txtflush array alltogether.
The new rc's exit status will be '' for a successfull
pipeline execution instead of '|'.
This is a bit too tightly coupled, so just use if()
statement instead, handling this in a portable way.
programs that try to use /srv would choke when running
under iostats, because we intercepted operations on the
special, magic fd passing; we should instead give them
access to the real /srv.
when running outside of a repository, we would try to
remove '$msgfile.tmp', but we had never actually set
'$msgfile'.
the error is harmless, but annoying.
The following patch fixes acme display glitches at the bottom fringe
of columns when adding/moving/resizing windows.
Here an example of an easy to reproduce case:
• https://invidio.xamh.de/watch?v=iLekQrxycaM
…opening acme and resizing a column to the right is all that is needed.
The functions winresize(…) and textresize(…) are extended with an
additional parameter `fillfringe` to indicate if a window/tag shall
fill a potential fringe area that would otherwise remain white.
The changes have been inspired by the approach taken in plan9port
acme.
Eckard's test case:
cat <<! | cat
asdf
!
The issue is that we have to continue parsing until we see
the '\n' before consuming the here document.
So we revert to the old approach of having two functions:
heredoc() which remembers if we'v seen a heredoc redirection
and a second readhere() function that reads the doc from
the lexers input and sets Tree.str on thee REDIR node.
due to the way the size of buf was calculated, the parent
file had one trailing null byte for each parent. also, while
we're here, replace the sprint with seprint, and compute the
size from how much we printed in.
Fixup remaining Plan9 dependencies (chartorune()).
Add Makefile for UNIX-like systems (tested with Linux and APE).
Make error printing consistent, use Errstr() explicitely.
Get rid of NSTATUS buffer limit, just malloc it.
git used to track cache size in object
count, rather than bytes. This had the
unfortunate effect of making memory use
depend on the size of objects -- repos
with lots of large objects could cause
out of memory deaths.
now, we track sizes in bytes, which should
keep our memory usage flatter.
