when using rio auto-complete to resolve file names for the "attach:" and
"include:" headers, the auto-completer might leave whitespaces at
the end of the line which leads upas/marshal to not find the file.
it is now possible to configure additional interfaces (like wifi)
and store the network information while preserving old entries
in /net/ndb. this allows to easily switch from ethernet to wifi
and have dhcp configure dns without having to clear /net/ndb.
netmkaddr() can return a the pointer to the host string if
it is already a full dial string. but we assumed to get
a copy and freed it before returning.
problem is NaN() produces a SNaN, not a QNaN... and on the 387,
storing 80 bit SNaN in register to a 64-bit memory destination
traps.
SNaN/QNaN encoding is machine specific. mips has the qiet/signaling
bit inverted.
disabling fp exception in main() now, but that sucks.
i think the best solution would be to not even call strtod() in
is_number() but just write a regex or a little state machine that
will only accept numbers without nan and ±inf.
that might even make it faster and is more robust than relying on
the os's strtod() details.
for queue like non-seekable files, it is impossible to implement an
exportfs because one has to run the kernels devtab read() and write()
in separate processes, and that makes it impossible to maintain 9p message
order as the scheduler can come in and randomly schedule one process before
another.
so as soon as we have a transition from 9p -> syscalls, we'r screwed.
i currently see just two possibilities:
- introduce special file type like QTSEQ with strictly ordered i/o semantics
- fix all fileservers and exportfs to only do one outstanding i/o to QTSEQ files
which means maintaining a queue per fid
this doesnt propagate. so exporting slow 9p mount again will be limited
again by latency of the inner mount.
other option:
- return offset in Rread, so client can bring responses back into order. this
requires changing all fileservers and drivers to maintain such an per fid offset
and change the protocol to include it in the response, and also pass it to userspace
(new syscalls or pass it in TOS)
this only works for read pipelining, write is still screwed.
both options suck.

(ppp->secret comes from factotum and it can have any size)
This patch also sets the correct state after success and
failure cases in chap negotiation (without them the code was
working because it expected the other point to pass to net
phase or due to the timer).
p2.patch: Do not request encriptation with -c or -C in ppp
(it was a bit annoying request compression, and when the ACK
from the server was received then send a NAK).
p3.patch: Add support for md5 and mschap in in chap
(without this patch ppp was passing to the net stage
without worring about chap).
- remove redundant flushimage() calls before readmouse()
- remove flushimage() calls for allocimage(),freeimage() and originwindow()
this is experimental. it will break allocimage() error handling unless the
caller does explicit flushimage() calls, tho the gains
in usability over high latency connections is huge. in most cases, programs
will just terminate when encountering these errors.
both server and client need to be convinced that the connection
is broken for a connection reestablishment to happen as the server
will only start looking for incoming clients when the connection
already broke. so use the 8 second interval sync messages
to check for connection lifeness. if we miss two syncs in time,
we declare the connecton to be broken and will try to reconnect.

Hello,
While I was setting my pppoe conexion with my ISP
I discovered several problems in ip/pppoe. I used
the command line ip/pppoe -A '' ether0 and I got

clearstate() is called in pppoe.c:424, and it frees acname and sets it
to nil. pktread() is called in pppoe.c:434 with parameter wantoffer,
which frees acname again in line pppoe.c:360 but doesn't set it to
nil, so clearstate() makes a double free in the next iteration.
this allows running kbdfs under kbdfs :-)
going use this in new drawterm. drawterm provides the initial
/dev/kbd, but only sends rune up/down messages (keeps it simple).
the servers kbdfs reads that and exports itself the full
set of files, similar to what we do in vncs. this also
provides note processing.
the dns file service can be restarted, which causes it to forget
all fid state. given the simple file system structure of the dns
service (just a single dns file), we can assume that rpcs
on a unknown fid refers to the root, so the mountpoint will stay
valid and /net/dns can be reopend avoiding the need for a remount
of the dns service after restart.
The execexec() function should never return, as it irreversably changes
the filedescriptor table for the new program. This means rc's internal
filedesciptors for reading the script get implicitely closed and we cannot
continue the rc interpreter when Execute() fails. So Execute() now sets the
error status, and execexec() runs Xexit() in case Execute() returns.
when we look up role=speakfor key and askforkeys is set, the
findkey() can return RpcNeedkey, which causes us to skip the
query for a role=client key. Instead, we now check for the
return value != RpcOk (and != RpcConfirm which we want to
handle the same for both queries).
we have to free the attribute lists when returning RpcConfirm.
the ini buffer was not reset when we got eof in the message
body read causing a endless loop. instead of defining our
own read9pmsg() function, just handle the first read specially
when we consumed the first 4 bytes for the "impo" protocol
escape check.
When a window is moved or reshaped, that implicitely tops
the window and makes it current. The conseqence of this
is that we always have to redraw the window as if it where
a current window in any case. This was handled for Reshaped
windows, but not when the window was just moved. We now
handle both cases the exact same way, getting rid of the
Moved wctl message.
the shared command language assumed 512 byte sectors, which is
not the case for fdisk as it uses cylinders for the block unit.
so we introduce an extra argument in the Edit structure and
parseexpr() function so byte sizes are properly converted to
the block unit when the K,M,G and T postfixes are used.
the pcap files produced by snoopy had the wrong timestamps because it expected:
/* magic=0xa1b2c3d4 */
ulong ts_sec; /* seconds*/
ulong ts_usec; /* microseconds */
but we wrote:
uvlong ts; /* nanoseconds */
now, we write:
/* magic=0xa1b23c4d */
ulong ts_sec; /* seconds */
ulong ts_nsec; /* nanoseconds */
as the generated parser intermixes lines from .y source
and the parser text, the line source/lineno for yyparse()
shows up wrong in the debugger. to make stack traces a
bit less crazy, put a #line 1 "/sys/lib/yaccpar" before
copying in the parser text.
when the "resize" wctl was used on a hidden window, the window
was put back on the screen, however, it was not removed from
the hidden[] array so trying to hide the window again failed
because whide() assumed it was already hidden.
the fix is to not unhide the window, but preserve the hidden
state, so windows can programmatically be reshaped and moved,
but will remain hidden unless explicitely unhidden.
to solve the usb device enumeration race on boot, usbd creates /env/usbbusy
on startup and once all devices have been enumerated and readers have consumed
all the events, we remove the file so nusbrc/bootrc can continue. this makes
sure all the usb devices that where plugged in on boot are made available.
code assumed the accessdir() call would always mark the block dirty, but
this is not the case when noatime flag is enabled. this was reported by
michael in bug:
"open/with_noatime_option_cwfs_doesnt_preserve_changes_in_file_permissionowner"

from charles forsuth:
because the previous version thought OINDEX might have a side effect, it
stopped it building a tower of them.
probably the best thing is to limit that anyway, since each one consumes
2-3 registers, so towering them can
keep even more active, and the x86 hasn't got that many.
the quick hack is to return that case to the earlier state by treating
OINDEX as a side-effect in side().
it's not a bad thing to do in the OSTRUCT case, for similar reasons: it's
better to collapse the indexed pointer
into a direct register, instead of repeating the indexing operation through
the copying of the value.
OINDEX isn't a machine-independent operation, so it doesn't affect the uses
in ../cc
- cover more cases that have no side effects
- ensure function has complex FNX
- pull operators out of OFUNC level
- rewrite OSTRUCT lhs to avoid all side-effects, use regalloc() instead of regret()
maximum file size is 4GB-1 as the file length is stored in
a 32 bit long. make sure it doesnt overflow on write or
or truncate. interpret the file length as unsigned. pass
vlong to readfile()/writefile()/truncfile() so we can
handle overflows and not just ignore the upper bits.
sprint() will replace invalid utf8 sequences with U+FFFD
which caused directory reads and stats to return the wrong
filename. just strcpy the name bytes.
the dynamic input buffer resize code (fillbuf()) is broken as
the calling code assumes that memory wont relocate. instead
of trying to work out all the cases where this happens, i'm
getting rid of fillbuf() and just read the whole file into
memory in setsource().
the bug could be reproduced with something as simple as:
@{for(i in `{seq 1 10000}){echo $i ', \'; }} | cpp
tar used to infer compression type from the filenames extension, but when
no file name is given (stdin/stdout), the -z flag was ignored and no
compression filter applied. this changes tar to assume the default
gzip compression method when z is given and no file name is specified.
this is in preparation for replacing DES ticket encryption with
something better. but first need to make the code stop making
assumptions.
the wire encoding of the Ticket might be variable length
with TICKETLEN just giving an upper bound. the details will be
handled by libauthsrv _asgetticket() and _asgetresp() funciotns.
the Authenticator and Passwordreq structures are encrypted
with the random ticket key. The encryption schmeme will depend
on the Ticket format used, so we pass the Ticket* structure
instead of the DES key.
introduce Authkey structure that will hold all the required
cryptographic keys instead of passing DES key.
theres code that assumes one can dereference a char[] buffer on the stack
as a long (ghostscript gxblend.c), so make sure all automatics on the stack
are word aligned. this is not strictrly neccesary, but avoids some
trouble with unportable code.
buffers which still have requests queued on them are not free!
we cannot chanedev() a buffer while it has still requests queued on it
and we canot just queue our request (having different address) on the
buffer while there are other requests before it, otherwise we would
create artificial block dependency that can cause deadlock.
it is possible for another getbuf() on buffer b to come in
before undelayreq() calls givebuf() on a buffer again. then
givebuf() would find b already busy and abort().
instead, we now handle what getbuf() did in givebuf() and
consider the Buf* argument to givebuf() as a hint only for
the case when we have to actually flush/read a block from
disk.
this allows members of the -1 group to create new directories in /
without having to fiddle with the fileserver console. this also
makes it consistent to hjfs and cwfs.

parsecookie() used to inplace modify the request path
for implicit path (to get the directory from path) and
also did it wrong. now have a static copy and do not
remove the last slash.
as usual, the dude with the hardware vanished so i cannot
develop this further. setting mode worked the last time
but only when using vesa before, so some bits are still
missing. commiting this as it is so i dont have to start
from scratch once we have hardware again.
when cookie is domain=example.com, then we implicitely add
dot to the domain name, which made us reject the cookie as the
request domain "example.com" != ".example.com". fix by making
isdomainmatch() skip the implicit dot in pattern before string
comparsion.
when there where multiple syscalls returning out of order,
it would print blank lines between the exits. avoid this
by remembering if the last char written was a newline and
conditionally insert newline on out of order return.
sometimes, ratrace would return before all messages have
been printed. make the writer process the parent so ratrace
wont exit until all readers are finished avoiding the
problem.
Tflush handling was wrong, we cannot respond to the old
request if we have not actually removed the req from the
in progress block queue.
when reads are issued concurrently, we have to set b->len
before the block is inserted into the inprogress list.
otherwise findblock() is unable to find it and no requests
can be queued on the block. this caused the same offset
to be downloaded multiple times.
set the errstr in getrange() so in case of an error, we dont
get some random previous error string.
