Improved how it can be used, added a description at the top of the file, too.

It has not yet been tested in this version, so it might not work correctly.
Needs Ingo's userland FS server.

offset to recognize the boot volume.
This should work well enough for now (as long as you don't have too many
disks in your system).
git-svn-id: file:///srv/svn/repos/haiku/trunk/current@9965 a95241bf-73f2-0310-859d-f6bbb57e9c96
versions 2.x and 3.x and fills the disk_identifier of the boot disk.
"Dumb" checksum/size recognition is not yet implemented (stores only the
size of the disk for now).
Does not yet create bios_drive structures for any other drives.
git-svn-id: file:///srv/svn/repos/haiku/trunk/current@9962 a95241bf-73f2-0310-859d-f6bbb57e9c96
the boot partition, and calls platform_register_boot_device() for the
rest.
git-svn-id: file:///srv/svn/repos/haiku/trunk/current@9961 a95241bf-73f2-0310-859d-f6bbb57e9c96
now fields that carry information about the boot disk and partition.
git-svn-id: file:///srv/svn/repos/haiku/trunk/current@9956 a95241bf-73f2-0310-859d-f6bbb57e9c96
added flags parameter (for example for B_MOUNT_READ_ONLY).
git-svn-id: file:///srv/svn/repos/haiku/trunk/current@9939 a95241bf-73f2-0310-859d-f6bbb57e9c96
- added user data pointer to cache_transaction notifier
- added functions block_cache_set_dirty(), and block_cache_make_writable()
- cache_transaction_next_block() let's you iterate over all blocks in the transaction
- instead of binding the block contents to the transaction (read-only checked
out blocks did only see the unchanged blocks until the transaction was closed)
the block now always shows the current data - even if the old way had some
advantages, it was terrible to use
- the blocks were not correctly added to the transaction
- improved debug output
- can check if the read-only blocks were changed accidently (compile time option)
git-svn-id: file:///srv/svn/repos/haiku/trunk/current@9936 a95241bf-73f2-0310-859d-f6bbb57e9c96
we don't want to copy them over to the kernel heap, we just don't free
the kernel args if the debug symbols are enabled - and since there are
no driver settings yet in the kernel, this is always for now.
git-svn-id: file:///srv/svn/repos/haiku/trunk/current@9931 a95241bf-73f2-0310-859d-f6bbb57e9c96
Moved from mutexes to benaphores.
Removed partial write support of the old API.
remove_cached_device_blocks() will now actually free all remaining blocks.
git-svn-id: file:///srv/svn/repos/haiku/trunk/current@9895 a95241bf-73f2-0310-859d-f6bbb57e9c96
to the arch independent section (pure laziness + I am not yet sure how this
will look like on other platforms).
Fixed the clone_area() command: B_CLONE_ADDRESS must not be used in the
same address space, because the area creation then can only fail.
Added an explanation on why the area is cloned at all.
git-svn-id: file:///srv/svn/repos/haiku/trunk/current@9885 a95241bf-73f2-0310-859d-f6bbb57e9c96
we do not support mount() and unmount() anymore.
I've not removed that file in case we decide that we have to export those
functions for whatever reason.
git-svn-id: file:///srv/svn/repos/haiku/trunk/current@9868 a95241bf-73f2-0310-859d-f6bbb57e9c96
The page_stats debugger command now understands queue names as well.
Some minor cleanup, improved error checking.
git-svn-id: file:///srv/svn/repos/haiku/trunk/current@9861 a95241bf-73f2-0310-859d-f6bbb57e9c96
Renamed vm_area::lock to vm_area::protection to be less confusing - wiring
is still called wiring, though (might be renamed to lock later, as that's
how BeOS calls it).
Renamed some global variables to match our naming scheme.
git-svn-id: file:///srv/svn/repos/haiku/trunk/current@9860 a95241bf-73f2-0310-859d-f6bbb57e9c96
Renamed vm_area::lock to vm_area::protection to be less confusing - wiring
is still called wiring, though (might be renamed to lock later, as that's
how BeOS calls it).
git-svn-id: file:///srv/svn/repos/haiku/trunk/current@9858 a95241bf-73f2-0310-859d-f6bbb57e9c96
Renamed all static global variables to have the 's' prefix.
acquire_sem_etc() now fails if B_RELATIVE_TIMEOUT and B_ABSOLUTE_TIMEOUT
are both set.
git-svn-id: file:///srv/svn/repos/haiku/trunk/current@9854 a95241bf-73f2-0310-859d-f6bbb57e9c96
Fixed a bug in snooze_etc(): it could define both, B_ABSOLUTE_TIMEOUT and
B_RELATIVE_TIMEOUT at the same time.
git-svn-id: file:///srv/svn/repos/haiku/trunk/current@9852 a95241bf-73f2-0310-859d-f6bbb57e9c96
No longer crashes due to architectural VM restrictions (ie. the area
is kernel only but writable now - should be cloned).
git-svn-id: file:///srv/svn/repos/haiku/trunk/current@9851 a95241bf-73f2-0310-859d-f6bbb57e9c96
real time shared page (it contains the boot time offset and the system
time conversion factor for now).
git-svn-id: file:///srv/svn/repos/haiku/trunk/current@9850 a95241bf-73f2-0310-859d-f6bbb57e9c96
(it will be maintained by the system afterwards, though).
git-svn-id: file:///srv/svn/repos/haiku/trunk/current@9849 a95241bf-73f2-0310-859d-f6bbb57e9c96
and the kernel.
create_area() can now only create kernel areas.
_user_create_area() now directly calls vm_create_anonymous_region().
Removed broken find_region_by_address() and find_region_by_name().
Removed vm_find_region_by_name().
Renamed the idle thread stack areas.
git-svn-id: file:///srv/svn/repos/haiku/trunk/current@9848 a95241bf-73f2-0310-859d-f6bbb57e9c96
placed in src/add-ons/Jamfile.
Removed sample-code driver digit; it's of no use here.
git-svn-id: file:///srv/svn/repos/haiku/trunk/current@9806 a95241bf-73f2-0310-859d-f6bbb57e9c96
will do this if this function is called by anyone other than the root
user.
git-svn-id: file:///srv/svn/repos/haiku/trunk/current@9804 a95241bf-73f2-0310-859d-f6bbb57e9c96
for temporary memory anymore, it's the store's responsibility to do that
correctly now, and that functionality is reached via the vm_cache using
vm_cache_set_minimal_commitment().
Therefore, the vm_store commit() function now returns a status instead of
the size that could be commited.
Replaced the max_commit mechanism with one that cares about the available
memory, stores can reserve and unreserve such memory. The anonymous_commit()
will now fail in case it could not reserve the needed amount of memory.
git-svn-id: file:///srv/svn/repos/haiku/trunk/current@9777 a95241bf-73f2-0310-859d-f6bbb57e9c96
off to enable bright background colors. It's now always done which enabled
me to improve the slider colors a bit.
Therefore, console_set_color() no longer clears bit 8 from the background color.
Now no longer tries to change the palette in non-8-bit modes; that fixes
the strange colors I got in high and true color modes (VESA palette changing
would fail and the fallback VGA palette changing was responsible for the effect).
git-svn-id: file:///srv/svn/repos/haiku/trunk/current@9772 a95241bf-73f2-0310-859d-f6bbb57e9c96
with an empty queue, it crashed. sem_info::latest_holder is obviously not
set correctly, and should be fixed.
Some cosmetics.
git-svn-id: file:///srv/svn/repos/haiku/trunk/current@9771 a95241bf-73f2-0310-859d-f6bbb57e9c96
serial_init() is now called from start().
Changed the way the serial debug output is served: instead of having
the console node to dump everything to serial, too, only dprintf()
triggers serial output now.
dprintf() is now silent unless in debug mode; serial output could
be enabled separetely, though (currently only at build time).
There is no need to disable serial output while the menu is running.
Removed unnecessary grist from the Jamfile.
git-svn-id: file:///srv/svn/repos/haiku/trunk/current@9756 a95241bf-73f2-0310-859d-f6bbb57e9c96
some stuff blinked and had wrong colors), we now have a new color scheme
in the boot loader. Not perfect, but looks okay and the same on Bochs and
real machines.
Made changing the colors again easier by moving most colors to constants.
We now have 3 lines for help texts.
git-svn-id: file:///srv/svn/repos/haiku/trunk/current@9754 a95241bf-73f2-0310-859d-f6bbb57e9c96
Now clears the screen and scrolls using the current colors (which allows
for other background colors than black).
console_set_color() no longer allows to set the 8 bit of the background
color which indicates blinking.
git-svn-id: file:///srv/svn/repos/haiku/trunk/current@9753 a95241bf-73f2-0310-859d-f6bbb57e9c96
Added comments about which colors can be used for what (unlike Bochs,
real systems support blinking modes, and therefore only 7 bits for
the background color).
git-svn-id: file:///srv/svn/repos/haiku/trunk/current@9752 a95241bf-73f2-0310-859d-f6bbb57e9c96
or I am messing things up (it will now use good old VGA palette programming).
This fixes the strange colors on my system, should investigate on how to
properly use the VESA stuff here.
Debug output now goes through dprintf().
git-svn-id: file:///srv/svn/repos/haiku/trunk/current@9751 a95241bf-73f2-0310-859d-f6bbb57e9c96
Now correctly removes the partitioning system from a device when it is no longer
needed. Also resets the parent pointer of its children.
Debug output now goes through dprintf() rather than printf().
git-svn-id: file:///srv/svn/repos/haiku/trunk/current@9748 a95241bf-73f2-0310-859d-f6bbb57e9c96
the partition was deleted, but never removed from the partition list.
No longer prints out the root directory contents of all file systems.
Debug output now uses dprintf() rather than printf().
git-svn-id: file:///srv/svn/repos/haiku/trunk/current@9747 a95241bf-73f2-0310-859d-f6bbb57e9c96
add_partitions_for(), though).
The partition now also tracks if it refers to a partitioning system or not.
git-svn-id: file:///srv/svn/repos/haiku/trunk/current@9745 a95241bf-73f2-0310-859d-f6bbb57e9c96
For example, command line history now works in the bash :)
