Two bugs reported from actual use, plus a test harness that had stopped
testing.
init could be killed by Ctrl-C, taking the machine with it. SIGINT goes
to the foreground process group, init is pgid 1, and any window where
tty_fg_pgrp is 1 -- before a shell claims the terminal, after one exits,
or between the two while the key is held -- lands it on init. init has
no handler, so killed was set, exit() ran, and exit() panics outright on
initproc. Spamming Ctrl-C at a frozen program is exactly the input that
finds that window. POSIX and Linux both discard a default-action signal
for pid 1; init_ignores() now does the same, SIGKILL included, because
init is not killable from userspace on any Unix.
Everything was slow because BSIZE was 1024 while a SchFS block is 4096,
so every block cost four IDE requests, each with its own interrupt and
sleep/wakeup. exec() of the 800 KB toybox binary meant ~800 round trips.
The giveaway: `seq 1 200`, which touches no file and prints nothing,
cost the same 2.0s as `cat /bin/toybox`, and `ls | wc -l` cost exactly
double -- both dominated by loading the same binary twice.
BSIZE is 4096 now, one request per SchFS block, and NBUF is 256 blocks
(1 MB) rather than 90 KB -- smaller than the binary every command execs,
so nothing was ever still resident. ideinit() issues SET MULTIPLE MODE,
which is what makes a 4096-byte transfer legal: READ/WRITE MULTIPLE move
the drive's multiple count per interrupt and nothing had ever set it,
which is the real reason idestart() carried a sector_per_block > 7 panic.
seq 1 200 2.02s -> 0.06s
ls /bin 2.76s -> 0.68s
ls /bin | wc -l 4.68s -> 0.73s
And the harness. bootcheck called Find-Qemu from a param() default,
which is bound before any function in the body exists -- so it died on
its first line and printed an error containing neither "FAIL" nor
"Exception", the two things being grepped for. It had not run since it
was made host-portable. Worse, an earlier index-based edit had deleted
the Expect blocks for -Tty, -Usb, -Sock, -Ps and -Evdev, so five of the
seven modes asserted nothing at all. Restored, and the USB run gets its
own 16 MB build/usbstick.img: it had been pointed at build/fs.img, which
nothing builds since SchFS became root, so QEMU refused to start.
242 checks across seven modes, all passing, and make schfs-check green.
Removes the "-unix" element and with it any trademark exposure to The
Open Group.
The split follows the ecosystem layout: SchOS is the system, and the
kernel has its own name. Kernel-identity strings are the only places
that take SchIFT -- uname(2) sysname, /proc/version, and the two licence
sentences that say "kernel" outright. That is what every Unix does here:
`uname -s` on Linux reports the kernel, not the distribution. Everything
a user reads as the product -- panic screen, boot menu, error prefixes,
docs, LICENSE, NOTICE -- is SchOS.
schunix.img is schos.img, the logo assets and the musl TLS patch are
renamed, and __SCHUNIX__ is __SCHOS__ (the define and the patch that
consumes it moved together).
Two things the rename broke, both found by the bootcheck suite:
- shmtest wrote "SCHUNIX-MMAP-OK" with a hardcoded length of 15 and
compared it back by hand-counted offsets (m[3]=='U', m[14]=='K').
The shorter marker left the write running two bytes past the literal
and the compare reading past the data, failing a file-backed mmap
that was working correctly. Now written and compared through one
constant with sizeof.
- bootcheck asserted a 31-byte file after appending to
"hello-from-schunix"; the shorter string makes it 29.
Both are the same mistake: a string literal whose length is written out
somewhere else. Full suite green -- base, Tty, Ps, Sock, Fb, Usb, Evdev.
An x86-64 operating system built from xv6, now largely rewritten: SMP,
a copy-on-write root filesystem (SchFS), PCI/USB/virtio drivers, a TTF
rasteriser, and a Linux-numbered syscall ABI.
No history before this point -- the tree was never under version control.
This commit exists so the rename that follows has something to undo to.
