2001-10-11 Thread Moritz Schulte
Hello, there was a discussion about Shadowfs' write support on IRC (#hurd @ openprojects.net) and Marcus suggested to post the conclusions - so here they are. The first question was: If shadowfs supports having an explicitely specified writable filesystem[0], shadowfs might has to create whole d

Mark Kettenis did some work a while back on using the hurd with osfmach on x86. Probably that is mostly the same architecture-independent stuff (differences in the IPC system between mach3 and osfmach) Peter has dealt with for the ppc osfmach. I have no clue about the status of the osfmach pa

I stole much of the signal code from sysdeps/mach/hurd/alpha (is there an Alpha port of the Hurd?). Actually, there is at least one bug in my powerpc code: in sigreturn, all the registers are restored except for the one (CTR) which holds the return value right before returning. I don't know if the
