Add more identifiers to drivers.conf for orinoco and rtl8137.
Increase RSS_NR_PCI_ID and remove dumplicate reference
to /etc/drivers.conf; each such reference uses _PATH_DRIVERS_CONF

debugging info on panic: decode segment selectors and descriptors, now moved
to arch-specific part, prototypes added; sanity checking in debug.h made
optional with vmassert().

thanks to tomas: fix for level0() race condition - global variable can
be used concurrently. pass the function in eax instead; this gets rid
of the global variable. also execute the function directly if we're
already trapped into the kernel.
revert of u32_t endpoint_t to int (some code assumes endpoints are
negative for negative slot numbers).

PM delay call infrastructure improvements
- allow PM to tell sys_runctl() whether to use delay call feature
- only use this feature in PM for delivering signals - not for exits
- do better error checking in PM on sys_runctl() calls
- rename SIGKREADY to SIGNDELAY

Merge of David's ptrace branch. Summary:
o Support for ptrace T_ATTACH/T_DETACH and T_SYSCALL
o PM signal handling logic should now work properly, even with debuggers
being present
o Asynchronous PM/VFS protocol, full IPC support for senda(), and
AMF_NOREPLY senda() flag
DETAILS
Process stop and delay call handling of PM:
o Added sys_runctl() kernel call with sys_stop() and sys_resume()
aliases, for PM to stop and resume a process
o Added exception for sending/syscall-traced processes to sys_runctl(),
and matching SIGKREADY pseudo-signal to PM
o Fixed PM signal logic to deal with requests from a process after
stopping it (so-called "delay calls"), using the SIGKREADY facility
o Fixed various PM panics due to race conditions with delay calls versus
VFS calls
o Removed special PRIO_STOP priority value
o Added SYS_LOCK RTS kernel flag, to stop an individual process from
running while modifying its process structure
Signal and debugger handling in PM:
o Fixed debugger signals being dropped if a second signal arrives when
the debugger has not retrieved the first one
o Fixed debugger signals being sent to the debugger more than once
o Fixed debugger signals unpausing process in VFS; removed PM_UNPAUSE_TR
protocol message
o Detached debugger signals from general signal logic and from being
blocked on VFS calls, meaning that even VFS can now be traced
o Fixed debugger being unable to receive more than one pending signal in
one process stop
o Fixed signal delivery being delayed needlessly when multiple signals
are pending
o Fixed wait test for tracer, which was returning for children that were
not waited for
o Removed second parallel pending call from PM to VFS for any process
o Fixed process becoming runnable between exec() and debugger trap
o Added support for notifying the debugger before the parent when a
debugged child exits
o Fixed debugger death causing child to remain stopped forever
o Fixed consistently incorrect use of _NSIG
Extensions to ptrace():
o Added T_ATTACH and T_DETACH ptrace request, to attach and detach a
debugger to and from a process
o Added T_SYSCALL ptrace request, to trace system calls
o Added T_SETOPT ptrace request, to set trace options
o Added TO_TRACEFORK trace option, to attach automatically to children
of a traced process
o Added TO_ALTEXEC trace option, to send SIGSTOP instead of SIGTRAP upon
a successful exec() of the tracee
o Extended T_GETUSER ptrace support to allow retrieving a process's priv
structure
o Removed T_STOP ptrace request again, as it does not help implementing
debuggers properly
o Added MINIX3-specific ptrace test (test42)
o Added proper manual page for ptrace(2)
Asynchronous PM/VFS interface:
o Fixed asynchronous messages not being checked when receive() is called
with an endpoint other than ANY
o Added AMF_NOREPLY senda() flag, preventing such messages from
satisfying the receive part of a sendrec()
o Added asynsend3() that takes optional flags; asynsend() is now a
#define passing in 0 as third parameter
o Made PM/VFS protocol asynchronous; reintroduced tell_fs()
o Made PM_BASE request/reply number range unique
o Hacked in a horrible temporary workaround into RS to deal with newly
revealed RS-PM-VFS race condition triangle until VFS is asynchronous
System signal handling:
o Fixed shutdown logic of device drivers; removed old SIGKSTOP signal
o Removed is-superuser check from PM's do_procstat() (aka getsigset())
o Added sigset macros to allow system processes to deal with the full
signal set, rather than just the POSIX subset
Miscellaneous PM fixes:
o Split do_getset into do_get and do_set, merging common code and making
structure clearer
o Fixed setpriority() being able to put to sleep processes using an
invalid parameter, or revive zombie processes
o Made find_proc() global; removed obsolete proc_from_pid()
o Cleanup here and there
Also included:
o Fixed false-positive boot order kernel warning
o Removed last traces of old NOTIFY_FROM code
THINGS OF POSSIBLE INTEREST
o It should now be possible to run PM at any priority, even lower than
user processes
o No assumptions are made about communication speed between PM and VFS,
although communication must be FIFO
o A debugger will now receive incoming debuggee signals at kill time
only; the process may not yet be fully stopped
o A first step has been made towards making the SYSTEM task preemptible

Mostly a revert of r5306. com.h defines MAX_NR_TASKS value which replaces
NR_TASKS in the endpoint macros. MAX_NR_TASKS defines the maximal number of
kernel tasks. It is unlikely that we will ever need this many tasks as the goal
is not to have such a difference in the future. For now it makes possible to
remove the limiting NR_TASKS from the endpoint code.

ps fix
It removes the no more existing marcos (XPIPE XPOPEN XDOPEN XLOCK XSELECT) and
replaces them with the new ones from servers/vfs/const.h No more dependency on

Removed dependency of vfs on NR_TASKS macro
- all macros in consts.h that depend on NR_TASKS replaced by a FP_BLOCKED_ON_*
- fp_suspended removed and replaced by fp_blocked_on. Testing whether a process
is supended is qeual to testing whether fp_blocked_on is FP_BLOCKED_ON_NONE or
not
- fp_task is valid only if fp_blocked_on == FP_BLOCKED_ON_OTHER
- no need of special values that do not colide with valid and special endpoints
since they are not used as endpoints anymore
- suspend only takes FP_BLOCKED_ON_* values not endpoints anymore
- suspend(task) replaced by wait_for(task) which sets fp_task so we remember who
are we waiting for and suspend sets fp_blocked_on to FP_BLOCKED_ON_OTHER to
signal that we are waiting for some other process
- some functions should take endpoint_t instead of int, fixed

NOT_REACHABLE macro
- marks code path that should be unreachable (never executed)
- if hit, panics and reports the problem
- the end of main() marked as such. The SMP changes need some magic with stack
switching before the AP can be started as they need to run on the boot stack
before figuring out what is their own stack. As main() uses the boot stack to,
we need to switch to to the stack of BSP before executing the last part of
main() which needs to be in a separate function so we can jump to it.
Therefore restart() won't be the last call in main() which may be confusing.
The macro can/should be used in other such places too.

Removed NR_TASKS from macros manipulating endpoint_t
- the magic numbers ANY, NONE and SELF are kept for the compatibility with the
current userspace. It is OK as long as NR_PROCS is greater so they don't
colide with other endpoints
- the 32 bit endpoint_t value is split in half, lower 16 bits for process slot
number and upper half for generation number
- transition to a structured endpoint_t in the future possible
