[FreeVMS] New release 0.2.10

[Roar Thronæs]

Hi

New release 0.2.10 at
ftp.nvg.ntnu.no:/pub/vms/freevms (freevms-0_2_10.tgz and linker-0_2_6)

Disk images are named a.img.gz and c.img.gz.
The USE file or reference to it should accompany downloads.
(For x86_64 they are named a.img.x86_64.gz and c.img.x86_64.gz)
The README file should be read first.

News:
x86_64:
Better PAL.
PAL SMP support.
PAL support for 4 modes (but no CLI in supervisor).
All 4 modes used.
i386:
PAL support for 4 modes (with CLI in supervisor).
Only 3 modes used.

Bugs/features fixed:
x86_64:
Critical kernel stack overflow (PAL).
Killed off interrupt stack (PAL).
Misc other PAL fixes.
i386:
Killed off Linux semaphores here, too.
Linux spinlock semantics with pte alloc in syscredel.
Both:
Zero check for image routine start.

New bugs/features:
Probably some.
Some elf images not being run due to incomplete read symbol table
(got it probably last time).

Notes:
i386:
Have no idea why the syscredel fix just works ok for i386.

Regards,
Roar Thronæs
