Cleanups for mig

Hi, while waiting hours for package rebuilds, I looked at mig and started by doing some cleanups. I hope noone shows up with a VAX and gcc < 2.0 and complains about me pulling the plug on the custom alloca implementation ;) I'm reasonably sure I didn't break anything, I rebuilt the Hurd with this

[PATCH 5/5] exec: remove the BFD code

This commit removes the parts of the exec server that were once using the Binary File Descriptor library. As I understand it, the BFD code stopped working because it uses stdio streams and the glue code for that has never been ported to libio. The code has been #ifdefed out ever since. It may or m

[PATCH 4/5] exec: Remove #ifdef 0-out code for user specified exec servers.

This code was meant to allow the user to specify alternative exec servers using an environment variable. The Hurd uses the file system as namespace for server lookups, so the proper way to use one's own exec server seems to be the remap translator. * exec/exec.c (S_exec_exec): Remove unused code.

Cleanups for the exec server

Hi :) this is a series removing both functionality and unused (out-#ifdef-ed) code in an attempt to reduce the size and complexity of an essential server. Overall this cuts about 800 lines from exec/exec.c. It is meant to be applied over my recent patch series, but should be applicable to the van

* config.make.in (datarootdir,YACC): New variable. * configure.ac (XKB_BASE): Drop extraneous "/share" from path. --- Hi, I recently started building Hurd with X11 and ran into some minor troubles. First, configure detects yacc, but it doesn't get substituted. This results in make's default YAC

[PATCH 2/2] Define _PATH_MOUNTED as "/etc/mtab"

Change the definition of _PATH_MOUNTED to "/etc/mtab". This is the value used on Linux. The change is motivated by the fact that on Debian /etc/mtab is a symbolic link to /proc/mounts. This patch adjusts the macro for non-linux systems such as Hurd. Changing this using sysdeps/mach/hurd/paths.h ca

[PATCH 1/2] Hurd: make reboot() send messages to both pid 1 and 2

Previously /hurd/init was run as pid 1 on Hurd systems, however sysvinit assumes that it is being run as pid 1. To appease sysvinit, /hurd/init will be run as pid 2 in the near future. Currently the pid of /hurd/init is hardcoded to 1. This patch makes reboot() try to send the start_reboot message

[PATCH 7/7] sysvinit: Fix getty path in /etc/inittab on Hurd.

This is essentially the same as 89f6476d8979174f395a1bf784486254464c349d but fixes the existing /etc/inittab file in the postinstall script. --- debian/changelog |1 + debian/sysvinit.config| 43 +++ debian/sysvinit.postinst | 13 ++

[PATCH 5/7] initscripts: Only run rootcheck on Linux

Neither kFreeBSD nor Hurd have /dev/root and the device ids used here are specific to Linux. Note that fsck is still run, rootcheck refers to the check whether the root device in /etc/fstab matches the actual device. --- debian/changelog |2 ++ debian/src/initscri

[PATCH 4/7] initscripts: add runsystem.sysv

runsystem.sysv does some very early initialization of Hurd and execs /sbin/init to start the system using sysvinit. Hurd uses the alternatives system to choose which runsystem to use and traditionally shipped a custom init solution. Add runsystem.sysv using update-alternatives in initscripts.postin

[PATCH 6/7] killall5.c: Use sysconf(_SC_SYMLOOP_MAX) instead of MAXSYMLINKS.

[PATCH 3/7] initscripts: use pidof -s /sbin/init for robustness

pidof -s returns the first matching process. Since readdir(2) on procfs returns the processes in ascending order, this returns the first process. This is more robust if there is more than one /sbin/init process. Currently on Hurd there are two /sbin/init processes. Clearly this needs some investig

The process interfaces got new routines, add processUser.o so that they get picked up by the servers that need them. As I understand it this is no longer necessary once the libc has been rebuilt with the new definitions. So this patch can either be omitted if the libc is rebuild first, or committe
