As suggested by Joshua, this commit adds the 2-clause BSD license as a
comment block to the top of every source file.
For the first pass, I've just added myself for simplicity. I encourage
everyone to add themselves as copyright holders of any file they've
added or modified in some significant way. If I've added myself in
error somewhere, feel free to replace it with the appropriate copyright
holder instead.
Going forward, all new source files should include a license header.
This is roughly twice as fast as the old 4 KB buffer size. We still
don't go nearly as fast as "cp", since we don't ftruncate() up front
like "cp" does.
It only works for sending a signal to a process that's in userspace code.
We implement reception by synthesizing a PUSHA+PUSHF in the receiving process
(operating on values in the TSS.)
The TSS CS:EIP is then rerouted to the signal handler and a tiny return
trampoline is constructed in a dedicated region in the receiving process.
Also hacked up /bin/kill to be able to send arbitrary signals (kill -N PID)
- sys$readlink + readlink()
- Add a /proc/PID/exe symlink to the process's executable.
- Print symlink contents in ls output.
- Some work on plumbing options into VFS::open().
I also added a generator cache to FileHandle. This way, multiple
reads to a generated file (i.e in a synthfs) can transparently
handle multiple calls to read() without the contents changing
between calls.
The cache is discarded at EOF (or when the FileHandle is destroyed.)
