- Moved (u)mount prototypes from unistd.h to sys/mount.h. - Prepared mount system call to accept multiple mount flags instead of just read_only (however, it remains backwards compatible). - Updated the man mount(2) to reflect new header file usage. - Updated badblocks, newroot, mount, and umount commands to use the new header file.

Fixed a minor select bug: - When one does a select on a file descriptor that is meaningless for that particular file type, select shall indicate that the file descriptor is ready for that particular operation and that the file descriptor has no exceptional condition pending.

Miscellaneous PM fixes: o Don't call vm_willexit() more than once upon normal process exit o Correct two cases of indenting of the no-discussion-possible kind o Perform slightly stricter ptrace(2) checks: - process calling ptrace must be target process's parent - process must call wait/waitpid before using ptrace on stopped child - no ptrace on zombies o Allow user processes to use ptrace(T_STOP) to stop an active child

keep some processes mapped in always; direct message copying where possible (no buffering); no more explicit vm checkranges in kernel; new allocator for vm using avl tree without needing remapping

only switch pagetable if necessary and it's different for copying messages

move field offset from vir region from phys_block to phys_region, so the same blocks of physical memory can be mapped in in different offsets within regions.

Release.sh now uses packages.install and package_sources.install to determine which packages and package sources to include on the installation media, as opposed to including everything in the PACKAGEDIR AND PACKAGESOURCEDIR directories.

further messing with page fault handling

no vm_setbuf any more (kernel doesn't create its page table any more), no relocking field (locks not checked)

Library call for cpu features; make kernel and vm use this to query cpu features (specifically: 4MB pages and TLB global bit). Only enable these features in CR4 if available. 4MB pages to be used in the near future.

-Remove qemu_pci boot variable. Useres no longer need to set qemu_pci when booting MINIX under QEMU/KVM. -Kept the diagnostic message, however.

to let tty run with its own page table (instead of with the kernel identity map table), make it map in video memory.
