binfmt/, configs/, grahics/, libc/, mm/, net/, sched/: OS references to the errno variable should always use the set_errno(), get_errno() macros
arch/arm/src/stm32 and stm32f7: Architecture-specific code is not permitted to modify the errno variable. drivers/ and libc/: OS references to the errno variable should always use the set_errno(), get_errno() macros
sched/sched: Correct some build issues introduced by last set of changes.
sched/sched: Add new internal OS function nxsched_setaffinity() that is identical to sched_isetaffinity() except that it does not modify the errno value. All usage of sched_setaffinity() within the OS is replaced with nxsched_setaffinity().
sched/sched: Internal functions sched_reprioritize() and sched_setpriority() no longer movidify the errno value. Also renamed to nxsched_reprioritize() and sched_setpriority().
sched/sched: Add new internal OS function nxsched_getscheduler() that is identical to sched_getscheduler() except that it does not modify the errno value. All usage of sched_getscheduler() within the OS is replaced with nxsched_getscheduler().
sched/sched: Add new internal OS function nxsched_setparam() that is identical to sched_setparam() except that it does not modify the errno value. All usage of sched_setparam() within the OS is replaced with nxsched_setparam().
sched/sched: Add new internal OS function nxsched_getparam() that is identical to sched_getparam() except that it does not modify the errno value (actually, the previous value erroneously neglected to set the errno value to begin with, but this fixes both issues). All usage of sched_getparam() within the OS is replaced with nxsched_getparam().
fs: Add truncate() support for userfs
fs/unionfs: Add truncate() support to the unionfs
fs/tmpfs: Add ftruncate() support to tmpfs
syscall/: Add system call support for ftruncate()
net/route: Adding ftruncate() support eliminates an issue in file-based routing table management.
fs: Add basic framework to support truncate() and ftruncate(). The infrastructure is complete. Now, however, the actual implementation of ftruncate() will have to be done for each file system.
This conversion is unfortunate in the sense that Unix local domain sockets are relatively lightweight. LocalHost UDP sockets are much heavier weight since they rely on the full UDP stack. If anyone is up for a complete redesign, then using some shared memory and a POSIX message queue would be lightweight again.
This commit also fixes several bugs that were not testable before the inode tree deadlock. I cannot say that the logic is 100% stable but it does not have basic functionality.
Squashed commit of the following:
fs/userfs: Order locking so that access to the shared I/O buffer is also locked.
fs/userfs: Converts to use LocalHost UDP loopback for IPC.
fs/userfs: This completes coding of the UserFS client and of the UserFS feature in general. This feature is being merged to main now because I believe it is innocuous. It is, however, untesed. The next step will be to develop a test case to verify the feature.
fs/userfs: Completes the request logic for the UserFS client. Still need the logic that receives the responses.
fs/userfs: Completes coding for most of the server side of the user filesystem logic.
fs/userfs: Big design changes, simplications. Use Unix domain local sockets instead of message queues. Easier to transfer big data in local sockets than message queues. Remove character drvier 'factory' it is not necessary.
fs/userfs: Minor reparitioning; volume private info does not need to be held on the OS client side.
libc/userfs: Add some of the server side logic.
fs/userfs: Add some UserFS initialization logic.
fs/userfs: Add frame work for the UserFS proxy. Remove all references to a block driver. There is no block dricer... what was I thinking?
fs/userfs: Add some initialization of the character driver, 'factory' device.
fs/userfs: Rename from fusefs to userfs to that we don't stomp on someone else's cool name.
Add a header file describing the fusefs interface.
Squashed commit of the following:
Change all calls to usleep() in the OS proper to calls to nxsig_usleep()
sched/signal: Add a new OS internal function nxsig_usleep() that is functionally equivalent to usleep() but does not cause a cancellaption point and does not modify the errno variable.
sched/signal: Add a new OS internal function nxsig_sleep() that is functionally equivalent to sleep() but does not cause a cancellaption point.
This is analogous to similar renaming that was done previously for semaphores.
Squashed commit of the following:
sched/signal: Fix a few compile warnings introduced by naming changes.
sched/signal: Rename all private, internal signl functions to use the nxsig_ prefix.
sched/signal: Rename sig_removependingsignal, sig_unmaskpendingsignal, and sig_mqnotempty to nxsig_remove_pendingsignal, nxsig_unmask_pendingsignal, and nxsig_mqnotempty to make it clear that these are OS internal interfaces.
sched/signal: Rename sig_findaction and sig_lowest to nxsig_find_action and nxsig_lowest to make it clear that these are OS internal interfaces.
sched/signal: Rename sig_allocatepingsigaction and sig_deliver to nxsig_alloc_pendingsigaction and nxsig_deliver to make it clear that these are OS internal interfaces.
sched/signal: Rename sig_cleanup, sig_release, sig_releasependingaction, and sig_releasependingsignal to nxsig_cleanup, nxsig_release, nxsig_release_pendingaction, and nxsig_release_pendingsignal to make it clear that these are OS internal interfaces.
sched/signal: Rename sig_tcbdispatch and sig_dispatch to nxsig_tcbdispatch and nxsig_dispatch to make it clear that these are OS internal interfaces.
sched/signal: Rename sig_releaseaction and sig_pendingset to nxsig_release_action and nxsig_pendingset to make it clear that these are OS internal interfaces.
sched/signal: Rename sig_initialize and sig_allocateactionblock to nxsig_initialize and nxsig_alloc_actionblock to make it clear that these are OS internal interfaces.
This commit backs out most of commit b4747286b1. That change was added because sem_wait() would sometimes cause cancellation points inappropriated. But with these recent changes, nxsem_wait() is used instead and it is not a cancellation point.
In the OS, all calls to sem_wait() changed to nxsem_wait(). nxsem_wait() does not return errors via errno so each place where nxsem_wait() is now called must not examine the errno variable.
In all OS functions (not libraries), change sem_wait() to nxsem_wait(). This will prevent the OS from creating bogus cancellation points and from modifying the per-task errno variable.
sched/semaphore: Add the function nxsem_wait(). This is a new internal OS interface. It is functionally equivalent to sem_wait() except that (1) it is not a cancellation point, and (2) it does not set the per-thread errno value on return.
sched/semaphore: Add nxsem_post() which is identical to sem_post() except that it never modifies the errno variable. Changed all references to sem_post in the OS to nxsem_post().
sched/semaphore: Add nxsem_destroy() which is identical to sem_destroy() except that it never modifies the errno variable. Changed all references to sem_destroy() in the OS to nxsem_destroy().
libc/semaphore and sched/semaphore: Add nxsem_getprotocol() and nxsem_setprotocola which are identical to sem_getprotocol() and set_setprotocol() except that they never modifies the errno variable. Changed all references to sem_setprotocol in the OS to nxsem_setprotocol(). sem_getprotocol() was not used in the OS
libc/semaphore: Add nxsem_getvalue() which is identical to sem_getvalue() except that it never modifies the errno variable. Changed all references to sem_getvalue in the OS to nxsem_getvalue().
sched/semaphore: Rename all internal private functions from sem_xyz to nxsem_xyz. The sem_ prefix is (will be) reserved only for the application semaphore interfaces.
libc/semaphore: Add nxsem_init() which is identical to sem_init() except that it never modifies the errno variable. Changed all references to sem_init in the OS to nxsem_init().
sched/semaphore: Rename sem_tickwait() to nxsem_tickwait() so that it is clear this is an internal OS function.
sched/semaphoate: Rename sem_reset() to nxsem_reset() so that it is clear this is an internal OS function.
This would be particularly useful, for example, in the case where there is only a single network adaptor and you want all output packets to go to the single adaptor in all cases. So for that behavior you could add a read-only routing table to the board-specific long that contains a single entry, the default route: 0.0.0.0/0.
Squashed commit of the following:
net/route: RAM and ROM routing tables build correctly in all IPv4 and IPv6 configurations.
net/route: Verify IPv6 ROM route build; Make number of ROM routes a variable, not a configuration item.
net/route: Add initial support for ROM-base, read-only routing tables.
net/route: Adjust and generalize some structures, rename some functions, and add configuration and build support that will eventually support read-only routing tables.
net/route: Some initial though experiments on use of a fixe, read-only routing table
