This is pretty cool. :^)
GraphicsBitmaps are now mapped into both the server and the client address
space (usually at different addresses but that doesn't matter.)
Added a GUI syscall for getting a window's backing store, and another one
for invalidating a window so that the server redraws it.
It only works for sending a signal to a process that's in userspace code.
We implement reception by synthesizing a PUSHA+PUSHF in the receiving process
(operating on values in the TSS.)
The TSS CS:EIP is then rerouted to the signal handler and a tiny return
trampoline is constructed in a dedicated region in the receiving process.
Also hacked up /bin/kill to be able to send arbitrary signals (kill -N PID)
I ran out of steam writing library routines and imported two
BSD-licensed libc routines: sscanf() and getopt().
I will most likely rewrite them sooner or later. For now
I just wanted to see figlet running.
I added a dead-simple malloc that only allows allocations < 4096 bytes.
It just forwards the request to mmap() every time.
I also added simplified versions of opendir() and readdir().
