Porting FreeBSD drm2 driver
I just noticed that FreeBSD's new 9.1 release has Kernel Mode Setting: The drm2(4) Intel GPU driver, which supports GEM and KMS and works with new generations of GPUs such as IronLake, SandyBridge, and IvyBridge, has been added. The agp(4) driver now supports SandyBridge and IvyBridge CPU northbridges.[r236926, r236927, r239965] (from http://www.freebsd.org/releases/9.1R/relnotes.html) It seems that it is practically impossible to buy a PCI graphics card these days for which X doesn't require KMS. This is going to make the use of NetBSD with X impossible at a very rapid rate. Even the card I that thought was supported properly (Radeon HD 5450-based) isn't - X claims no accelleration. I haven't tried Xv yet (needed to view video) but I fear the worst. Is anybody by any chance working on porting this FreeBSD driver to NetBSD? -Olaf. -- ___ Olaf 'Rhialto' Seibert -- The Doctor: No, 'eureka' is Greek for \X/ rhialto/at/xs4all.nl-- 'this bath is too hot.'

Re: Importing lua(4), but where in the source tree?

Nowadays I am playing with lua in userland. Current lua in base userland is 5.1.5 and it seems that it lacks bitwise operation commands. According to Lua website, newer 5.2 have bitwise operations, bit32.band etc. What version of Lua will be imported? I have no idea about kernel manner, but I think Lua 5.2 is preferable for kernel use, because bitwise operations are more important in kernel.

For the time being it is Lua 5.1.4 (and that is already in the tree, so Lua does not get imported, it just gets used in the kernel as well). Once all is in place I will start to update everything to Lua 5.2. Does that sound OK to you? - Marc

revert broken O_SEARCH
The following (untested) patch reverts the defective O_SEARCH implementation that was committed along with the *at calls back in November. I am currently building and testing it and will commit it when that finishes. I have left O_SEARCH defined and visible and made open() explicitly ignore it. This way, most code that tries to use it will continue to build and run. I've also arranged lib/libc/c063/t_o_search.c so that the tests that make use of the O_SEARCH semantics will disappear until O_SEARCH comes back, and fixed some mistakes and/or incorrect hacks that were causing some of these to succeed despite the broken O_SEARCH implementation. The man page changes at the end are essentially all the same. -- diff -r 660c8bed4e78 sys/kern/vfs_syscalls.c --- a/sys/kern/vfs_syscalls.c Sat Jan 12 15:03:39 2013 -0500 +++ b/sys/kern/vfs_syscalls.c Sat Jan 12 18:24:09 2013 -0500 @@ -181,14 +181,6 @@ if ((error = fd_getvnode(fdat, &dfp)) != 0) goto out; - if (!(dfp->f_flag & FSEARCH)) { - vn_lock(dfp->f_data, LK_EXCLUSIVE); - error = VOP_ACCESS(dfp->f_data, VEXEC, l->l_cred); - VOP_UNLOCK(dfp->f_data); - if (error) - goto cleanup; - } - NDAT(ndp, dfp->f_data); } @@ -213,14 +205,6 @@ if ((error = fd_getvnode(fdat, &dfp)) != 0) goto out; - if (!(dfp->f_flag & FSEARCH)) { - vn_lock(dfp->f_data, LK_EXCLUSIVE); - error = VOP_ACCESS(dfp->f_data, VEXEC, l->l_cred); - VOP_UNLOCK(dfp->f_data); - if (error) - goto cleanup; - } - dvp = dfp->f_data; } else { dvp = NULL; @@ -1577,6 +1561,10 @@ int indx, error; struct nameidata nd; + if (open_flags & O_SEARCH) { + open_flags &= ~(int)O_SEARCH; + } + flags = FFLAGS(open_flags); if ((flags & (FREAD | FWRITE)) == 0) return EINVAL; @@ -1641,7 +1629,6 @@ /* * Check permissions, allocate an open file structure, * and call the device open routine if any. - * XXX implement O_SEARCH */ static int do_sys_openat(lwp_t *l, int fdat, const char *path, int flags, @@ -1662,19 +1649,10 @@ goto out; dvp = dfp->f_data; - - if (!(dfp->f_flag & FSEARCH)) { - vn_lock(dfp->f_data, LK_EXCLUSIVE); - error = VOP_ACCESS(dfp->f_data, VEXEC, l->l_cred); - VOP_UNLOCK(dfp->f_data); - if (error) - goto cleanup; - } } error = do_open(l, dvp, pb, flags, mode, fd); -cleanup: if (dfp != NULL) fd_putfile(fdat); out: @@ -1988,6 +1966,10 @@ 0, NULL, NULL, NULL))) return (error); + if (oflags & O_SEARCH) { + oflags &= ~(int)O_SEARCH; + } + flags = FFLAGS(oflags); if ((flags & (FREAD | FWRITE)) == 0) return (EINVAL); diff -r 660c8bed4e78 sys/sys/fcntl.h --- a/sys/sys/fcntl.h Sat Jan 12 15:03:39 2013 -0500 +++ b/sys/sys/fcntl.h Sat Jan 12 18:24:09 2013 -0500 @@ -131,7 +131,7 @@ #defineO_MASK (O_ACCMODE|O_NONBLOCK|O_APPEND|O_SHLOCK|O_EXLOCK|\ O_ASYNC|O_SYNC|O_CREAT|O_TRUNC|O_EXCL|O_DSYNC|\ O_RSYNC|O_NOCTTY|O_ALT_IO|O_NOFOLLOW|O_DIRECT|\ -O_DIRECTORY|O_CLOEXEC|O_NOSIGPIPE|O_SEARCH) +O_DIRECTORY|O_CLOEXEC|O_NOSIGPIPE) #defineFMARK 0x1000 /* mark during gc() */ #defineFDEFER 0x2000 /* defer for next gc pass */ @@ -141,7 +141,7 @@ #defineFKIOCTL 0x8000 /* kernel originated ioctl */ /* bits settable by fcntl(F_SETFL, ...) */ #defineFCNTLFLAGS (FAPPEND|FASYNC|FFSYNC|FNONBLOCK|FDSYNC|FRSYNC|FALTIO|\ -FDIRECT|FNOSIGPIPE|FSEARCH) +FDIRECT|FNOSIGPIPE) /* bits to save after open(2) */ #defineFMASK (FREAD|FWRITE|FCNTLFLAGS) #endif /* _KERNEL */ @@ -166,7 +166,6 @@ #defineFRSYNC O_RSYNC /* kernel */ #defineFALTIO O_ALT_IO/* kernel */ #defineFDIRECT O_DIRECT/* kernel */ -#defineFSEARCH O_SEARCH/* kernel */ #endif /* diff -r 660c8bed4e78 tests/lib/libc/c063/t_o_search.c --- a/tests/lib/libc/c063/t_o_search.c Sat Jan 12 15:03:39 2013 -0500 +++ b/tests/lib/libc/c063/t_o_search.c Sat Jan 12 18:24:
