Add boot loader debug menu option "Save syslog from previous session
during boot". If enabled (defaults to true), the previous session's
debug syslog data is copy to a separate buffer and passed to the
kernel, which writes it back to the file /var/log/previous_syslog.
As long as Haiku still boots, this should now be the most convenient way
to retrieve the output from a kernel crash.

Rebased against current sources.
* The BIOS video mode sometimes reports a scaled mode instead of the
physical panel dimensions. Get the data from the VBT table as well, and
use it if the reported resolution is bigger.
* On first boot, force the panel native mode so the user doesn't have to
set it manually.
* Only allow a single head at a time on i855gm, as the card can't drive
both heads at the same time.
* Detect when a new requested mode is the same as the current one, and
skip modesetting in that case. Avoids screen flickering when changing
workspaces.
* Fix some cases of misdetecting which pipes to enable
* Instead of creating an OpenSSL context ofor each socket, use a global
one and initialize it lazily when the first SecureSocket is created
* Load the certificates from our certificate list so SSL certificates
sent by servers can be validated.
* Add a callback for signalling that certificate validation failed, the
default implementation proceeds with the connection anyway (to keep the
old behavior).
* Introduce BCertificate class, that provides some information about a
certificate. Currently it's only used by the callback mentionned above,
but it will be possible to get the leaf certificate for the connection
after it's established.
Review of the API and implementation is welcome, before I start making
use of this in HttpRequest and WebKit to allow the user to accept new
certificates.
Use standard error codes instead.
This allows using error code returned by the underlying functions
directly, and makes it possible to use strerror for debugging. So, we
can also remove StatusString() from the various *Request classes.
Previous implementation based on the actual load of each core and share
each thread has in that load turned up to be very problematic when
balancing load on very heavily loaded systems (i.e. more threads
consuming all available CPU time than there is logical CPUs).
The new approach is to estimate how much load would a thread produce
if it had all CPU time only for itself. Summing such load estimations
of each thread assigned to a given core we get a rank that contains
much more information than just simple actual core load.
* Previously PE binaries would trigger the "incorrectly
executable" dialog. Now we get a special message for
B_LEGACY_EXECUTABLE and B_UNKNOWN_EXECUTABLE
* Legacy at the moment is a R3 x86 PE binary. This could
be extended to gcc2 binaries someday far, far, down the
road though
* The check for legacy is based on a PE flag I see
set on every R3 binary (that isn't set on dos ones)
* Unknown is something we know *is* an executable, but
can't do anything with (such as an MSDOS or Windows
application)
* No performance drops as we do the PE scan last
* Tested on x86 and x86_gcc2
This field forces kernel to track each CPU load all the time. It is not
a problem with the current scheduler on a multicore systems, but on
single core machnies or with any other future scheduler this field may
become just an unnecessary burden. It isn't difficult for an application
to compute CPU load by itself when it needs it.
When calling Stop(), we expect the request thread to exit as soon as
possible. Closing the connection unlocks it from any blocking read() or
write(), avoiding some lockup situations.
* My BeagleBone gcc defines __ARMEL__ but not
__ARM__ which breaks the native tool builds
* As ARM was originally Little Endian, we assume
__ARM__ means as such.
* Look for Big Endian ARM and define the needed big
endian preprocessors
* Add behavior constant B_POP_UP_BEHAVIOR which adds a pop-up marker
to the button (similar to that of BMenuField).
* Add methods [Set]PopUpMessage(). To set/get the the message that is
sent to the button's target when the pop-up marker is clicked.
* Add methods SetFlat()/IsFlat(). A flat button doesn't draw its frame,
unless the mouse is hovering over it or it is otherwise activated.
* As a side effect this change also activates the hover glow that was
already implemented in BControlLook, but not activated in BButton.
* Draw(): Remove the non-BControlLook code.
* GetPreferredSize(): Implement based on _ValidatePreferredSize() to
avoid code duplication.
* Draw(): Fix off-by-one error. The label was too close to the box.
* Draw(), _ValidatePreferredSize(): Add icon support.
_ValidatePreferredSize() is now actually aligned with what Draw()
expects. The preferred width is now a tight fit; there were three or
four pixels of empty space before.
Due to the fixed check box position the layout isn't that nice in
some situations (particularly with an icon larger than the text),
IMHO.
The icon is meant as an addition to or replacement of the label. Icon
bitmaps for various states of the control (off, on, partially on, each
enabled or disabled, plus up to 125 custom states) can be set
individually via SetIconBitmap() (getter IconBitmap()).
The convenience method SetIcon() can be used to set the bitmaps for the
standard states from a single bitmap; it also supports cropping the
icon to its non-transparent area. Code borrowed from BIconButton.
* Update the previously unused frame_type and background_type enums.
* Add methods GetFrameInsets(), GetBackgroundInsets(), GetInsets() to
get the insets for a given frame type, background type, or both
respectively.
The baudrate constant for MIDI speed was after all the others in BeOS,
and we have to keep them with the same values for things to work.
Moreover, the constants in SerialPort.h were not changed, so everything
was out of sync and all apps using BSerialPort ended up using the wrong
speed.
Add a comment in termios.h to make sure this doesn't happen again.
* Add possible control state B_CONTROL_PARTIALLY_ON and support it in
BCheckBox and BControlLook.
* BCheckBox: Add partialStateToOff property defining whether the
partial state should transition to off. Defaults to false (i.e.
partial to on).
