When building the binary release, include all the system stuff like
|
|
GNOSnooper, et al.
|
|
|
|
We need a namespace(5) manual page. Here is a "bugs" entry for it:
|
|
Apropos of building a bootable system, I've also encountered another
|
|
bug. One cannot use a "partition" defined in /etc/namespace as the
|
|
home directory for any user. For example, one cannot use "/root" as
|
|
root's home directory unless it is a real volume. The symptoms of
|
|
this are:
|
|
1. You will get a error about "Device not found"
|
|
2. The user's gshrc file will not have been sourced.
|
|
|
|
Make the source *.shk archive on trenco use proper file types.
|
|
|
|
The header files <curses.h>, <sys/termios.h>, and <sys/ioctl.compat.h>
|
|
have conflicting definitions for FLUSHO.
|
|
|
|
newuser, newuserv:
|
|
- update to use /home vice /user or maybe a conf file
|
|
- check out behavior of 'adduser', see if there's anything
|
|
missing
|
|
|
|
vfscanf.c:
|
|
After a reasonable time, disable the assert calls.
|
|
|
|
Finish index in kernel reference manual.
|
|
|
|
in stack(3) man page, the user shouldn't have to allow for extra
|
|
bytes for _assertStack(3). Determine what is necessary. If the
|
|
number of bytes left is less than this value, then print out
|
|
an abbreviated error message rather than calling errx.
|
|
|
|
Add implementations for Tilghman:
|
|
strftime(3)
|
|
|
|
Create a src/gno/build.tools/mklink script for duplicating binary
|
|
files at user install time. Current packages that need this:
|
|
compress/zcat
|
|
sum/cksum
|
|
|
|
As a group:
|
|
Update utmp.5, libutil (logout, logwtmp), last(1), login(1), who(1),
|
|
w(1), init(8), _PATH_UTMP (<utmp.h> and FAQ), rwho(1), users(1)
|
|
|
|
Add to relevent util man pages:
|
|
.SH ATTRIBUTIONS
|
|
This command was ported from FreeBSD source code
|
|
for distribution with GNO/ME 2.0.6.
|
|
|
|
stdio:
|
|
- add %b modifier to fprintf implementation (ORCA/C compatibility)
|
|
|
|
stdlib/cvt.c:
|
|
- handle modes 0 and 1 correctly.
|
|
|
|
Use result of _setModeEmulation(3) in appropriate calls. These include
|
|
chmod -
|
|
fchmod -
|
|
creat - done
|
|
open - done
|
|
stat - unnecessary
|
|
fstat - unnecessary
|
|
lstat - unnecessary
|
|
|
|
check up on the type of nlink_t, used in stat(2)
|
|
|
|
Write a test that handles:
|
|
- negative process numbers
|
|
- process numbers exceeding INT_MAX and UINT_MAX
|
|
the easiest way to do this is to repeatedly exec a program that prints
|
|
it's process number. Keep doing so until either the number wraps or
|
|
the machine crashes.
|
|
|
|
libc/sys/exec.c:
|
|
buildCmd should single-quote strings containing whitespace.
|
|
If the string already has single quotes, then backspace them.
|
|
|
|
buildPath should only return files of type S16, EXEC, or EXE.
|
|
|
|
buildPath should use the mapPath facility.
|
|
|
|
These functions should operate closer to GS/OS when possible.
|
|
Also need to reduce stack requirements.
|
|
|
|
For the exec* functions, there should be a test for whether
|
|
or not the file is of type SRC and auxtype EXEC. If that
|
|
is the case, and if the first two characters of the file
|
|
are '#!', then the shell should be exec'd instead. (currently,
|
|
shell scripts cannot be exec'd)
|
|
|
|
|

|
|
investigate using dynamic libraries (RTLs)
|
|
|
|
libc/sys/syscall.c:
|
|
for unlink, if file is open, then register a call to unlink
|
|
(non-recursive) the file via atexit(3)
|
|
[not practical?]
|
|
|
|
libc/gen/environ.c:
|
|
Review routines. Force them to use GSString routines, reduce
|
|
stack usage (depend on dynamic allocation for parm blocks).
|
|
|
|
libc/gen/err.c:
|
|
Use syslogd if not on a tty.
|
|
|
|
libc/gen/tty.c:
|
|
review these routines
|
|
|
|
do intro man pages:
|
|
1 done
|
|
2 review DEFINITIONS section
|
|
3 done
|
|
4 done
|
|
5 done
|
|
6 done
|
|
7 done
|
|
8 done
|
|
|
|
Add locale implementation to libc.
|
|
|
|
various man pages:
|
|
add note under COMPATIBILITY as to whether the routines
|
|
are thread-safe. If they write any globals or static
|
|
variables, they are not.
|
|
|
|
Verify that the setdebug(2) macros in gno/gno.h are correct.
|
|
|
|
Add implementations for execle; the final
|
|
envp can't appear in the prototype, but it can be found since it is
|
|
the last argument after the first NULL pointer.
