------------------------------------------------------------
OS/161 2.0.3 released 20160124
------------------------------
20170124 dholland in base
- Remove obsolete, redundant, or not useful test programs:
guzzle (same as hog)
kitchen (equivalent to multiexec -n 4 sink)
sink (same as conman)
sty (equivalent to multiexec -n 6 hog)
quinthuge (offers little over triplehuge, can be done with multiexec)
quintmat, quintsort (ditto)
20170118 dholland in base
- Make -g -Og the flags when "debug" is enabled in a kernel config
(which it is in the non-OPT ones) and add an additional kernel
config verb "debugonly" to get just -g in case that becomes
necessary. This should significantly improve the output code
quality from gcc without compromising debugging. (However, gcc
being gcc, it also sometimes leads to additional spurious
warnings that don't occur with either -g or -O2.)
20170118 dholland in base
- Add a MI mainbus_debugger() function that goes through the right
MD paths to trigger the debugger hook in the ltrace device. Also
add a menu function "debug" to trigger it.
20170118 dholland in base
- Add some bits to forktest to try to catch the case where the fork
child returns from the next system call instead of from fork.
(Which is a moderately common bug, caused by races copying the
trapframe information in the kernel.)
20170117 dholland in base
- Add a menu command "deadlock" to intentionally deadlock.
20170117 dholland in base, from Sam Fishman
- Fix parallelvm -w so that if one of the forks fails the whole
thing doesn't wedge.
20170117 dholland in base, reported by Sam Fishman
- Don't do semfs I/O from NULL, or from/to insufficiently sized
buffers. Like the 20150615 change, except covering the rest of
the tests that use the semaphores that were doing it wrong:
multiexec, parallelvm, and schedpong.
20170117 dholland in base, from Sam Fishman
- Add assembler directives to exception-mips1.S that tell gdb how
to read trap frames correctly. Garbage-collect old stuff left
over from making it work with a (much) older version of gdb a
long time back. This also usually makes it possible to trace back
through a syscall into a userlevel process; include a gdb script
with tools for making this useful.
20170117 dholland in base
- Merge the deadlock detector into base. It was a success last year.
- Mention in the comments that the hangman hooks in locks need to
be called atomically.
20170117 dholland in base, reported by Jeffrey Cai, patch from Sam Fishman
- Fix off-by-one in tac that makes it skip the first line of files.
20170117 dholland in base, from Sam Fishman
- Make badcall's "pipe with unaligned pointer" test clean up after
itself if the operation succeeds. Otherwise it leaks fds and that
can intefere with other tests.
20170116 dholland in base, reported by Sam Fishman
- Don't allow opening an entirely empty pathname to succeed, and
don't allow success for this case in badcall either.
20170116 dholland in base, from Sasha Fedorova
- Fix write buffer size in filetest.
20160325 dholland in base
- Fix macro parenthesis bug in ROUNDUP().
20160304 dholland in base, from Sam Fishman
- Make runtest.py handle spacing in the command strings it's given.
20160216 dholland in base
- Fix spacing problems in ls -l output for large files.
20160203 dholland in base
- Expand comments attached to cpustacks[]/cputhreads[], prompted by
James Mickens.
20160125 dholland in base, from Nikhil Benesch.
- Fix stupid argument handling bug in test.py.
OS/161 2.0.2 released 20160112
------------------------------
20160112 dholland in base
- Add vfs_swapon() and vfs_swapoff() functions. These are like
vfs_mount() and vfs_unmount(), except for devices to be used for
swap. Using these instead of just opening the raw device causes
them to be tagged busy, so that accidentally using the same disk
for swap and a file system will fail.
20160112 dholland in base
- Kill off vm_tlbshootdown_all() and VM_TLBSHOOTDOWN_ALL. While
there's nothing wrong per se with doing a TLB shootdown that
invalidates all mappings, coalescing multiple pending TLB
shootdown requests into a single all-mappings request requires at
least MD logic, which the oversimplified scheme here didn't
support. In practice TLB shootdown requires synchronization, and
the coalescing scheme made it unsafe to put synchronization hooks
(that might get dropped) into struct tlbshootdown. Instead leave
behind a comment suggesting steps to take if the TLB shootdown
queue ever actually overflows in practice, which isn't that
likely.
20160112 dholland in base, reported by Sam Fishman
- In thread_make_runnable, don't send unidle IPIs to curcpu.
20160111 dholland in base
- Provide some simple test automation logic, and install it in
$(OSTREE)/testscripts. It uses Python and pexpect, so provide
some suitable infrastructure for handling that.
20160111 dholland in base
- Have "make clean" in a man directory do nothing instead of failing.
20160107 dholland in base
- Don't take vfs_biglock in vnode_check(). It isn't safe (e.g. it
can deadlock when paging once you have a VM system) and the
things vnode_check() looks at are supposed to be constant fields
anyway. If they aren't actually constant because of bugs, reading
a stale or even garbage value is not going to hurt more.
20160107 dholland in deadlock-detector
- Add a deadlock detector. For now this will be supplied to
instructors as a supplementary patch, because it intrudes into
the synchronization primitives and affects what students do
there. We are planning to try it on our students this coming
semester; if that works out well, I'll probably merge it into
base.
20160107 dholland in base
- In testbin/multiexec, if fork fails partway through, continue
with the forks we got. Otherwise the subprocesses we started hang
around forever, and there's no way to kill them.
20160106 dholland in all
- New format for CHANGES that admits longer descriptions, and that
deals better with having many branches and patches.
- Merge all the branch CHANGES.* files into the main CHANGES, as
having multiple CHANGES files was never desirable.
OS/161 2.0.1 released 20150805
------------------------------
20150804 dholland in base
- Improve multiexec's error reporting.
20150804 dholland in base
- Minor fixes to frack check.
20150722 dholland in base
- Add assertions to dumbvm to check that sleeping is ok in various
contexts where real VM systems typically sleep.
20150722 dholland in base

20150721 dholland in procsyscalls
- Put proc->p-threads[] back in the procsyscalls solution branch.
20150721 dholland in base
- Remove proc->p_threads[] array. Just count the number of threads
in each proc. This is enough to get going on, and it's easy for
students to add and synchronize an explicit array of threads
themselves if they want it. (It needs a sleeplock; but by that
point they'll have those. We don't out of the box though.)
20150713 dholland in base
- Make all sfs prints/panics include the volume name.
20150713 dholland in base

20150603 dholland in base
- Add example unit tests for the provided semaphores.
20150603 dholland in base

20150417 dholland in base, from Nikhil Benesch.
- Fix configure test for ntohll.
20150417 dholland in base, from Nikhil Benesch.
- Use printf instead of echo -n in shell scripts; it seems that
even in 2015 Mac OS X comes with a broken echo, and we don't care
about host OSes too old to have printf in sh.
20150322 dholland in base, from Anne Madoff.
- Fix typos in non-dumbvm addrspace.h.
20150322 dholland in base
