Netsurf porting effort (2020/04/16)

   Date: Wed, 05 Feb 2020 01:56:42 +0200   Subject: [9front] TODO Netsurf port to Plan 9   Dear all,   I have compiled a small TODO list for the port of Netsurf to Plan 9 from    things that I can come to think of. I also made the list so that it    would be easer to select a task for anyone that would find it fun to    help out. Maybe you would like to play with something on the list? The    support for various image formats could be one thing that is easy to do    in parallel with other tasks.   I am not expecting changes in 9front just to compile upstream netsurf    without patches, neither do I believe that the Netsurf team would change    their code base too much in order for it to compile out of the box in    Plan 9. All comments are welcome, however. As Ori and Kyle mentioned    they were willing to work on some things, I put their names in brackets    for those tasks :-)   Higher priority tasks:   * clean up the mkfiles, factor out common parts [Ori B]   * implement webfs fetcher backend [Kyle N]   * alternatively integrate with libcurl   * compress image updates sent to /dev/draw [Jonas A]   * iconv library support (convert between different character encodings.   * make content handlers for jpg, png & svg compile & work          (netsurf/content/handlers/image/ now commented out in netsurf/mkfile)   * start on a native gui frontend (netsurf/frontends/plan9/gui.c)          (lots of things, fonts handling etc.)   * netsurf/frontends/framebuffer/gui.c          fix Options handling (argc/argv) in main()   * add support for pread() pwrite() and fceil() in APE          (now implemented in posix/*)   * look into the warning "Using dodgy gettimeofday() fallback"          in libnsutils/src/time.c   Maybe less important tasks: (mostly for easier upstream integration)   * make translator between flex/bison and lex/yacc for *.l and          *.y files. Also something for perl scripts maybe.   * look into the macros in libwapcaplet. Not all macros are understood          by cpp (now using function decl. from older version of the library.   * make the code in libnsfb-0.2.1/src/plot/*.c byte order agnostic          (might not matter if we make an native GUI)   * implement VLA (Variable Lentgth Arrays) - or an good  way to          avoid them (if upstream is updated)

From: mycroftiv 9gridchan
Date: Thu, 28 Dec 2017 10:41:02 -0600

I made a custom spin of the 9front .iso which includes my “AdvancedNamespace Tools” kernel and software, which I have continued todevelop and keep updated to current 9front. It’s at:

http://files.9gridchan.org/9frants569.iso.gz

There is a brief guide to using it at:

http://doc.9gridchan.org/guides/livecd

Any feedback and/or reports of issues is appreciated. Everythingshould work just as it does in standard 9front but with someadditional features available. This is intended as experimentalcontributions to the 9front project for experienced Plan 9 users toexplore if interested. Thanks to Cinap for 9front and helping with allmy questions about Plan 9 development. I’m around most of the time inirc currently to discuss and answer any questions.

notes

This release adds aiju’s games/timmy, a physics simulation game and abignum calculator for programmers called pc.

On the system side, we got a fast portable /dev/random now which isbased on the chacha stream cipher - carefully seeded once at boot time.Cipher states for the rng and other kernel crypto services is nowkept in a separate memory pool which devproc will prohibit access toand which automatically destroys the data on free.
