SUPERSERVER has 4 different meanings in our code:
- this is milticlient server (replaced with Config::getMultiClientServer())
- use shared data cache (replaced with Config::getSharedCache())
- use shared metadata cache (replaced with macro SHARED_METADATA_CACHE)
- database are NOT shared between processes (replaced with getSharedDatabase())
2. Use fb_smp_server as both superclassic and classic binary on posix
(xinetd autodecection is done).
3. Small posix build cleanup.
Use traditional firebird configuration files format in all places (intl, trace, etc.).
Add per-database configuration facility to aliases.conf (currently 15 parameters from firebird.conf).
related with local events from isc_sync.cpp.
2. Cleanup - removed unused parameter 'number of events' from ISC_event_wait()
and two unused parameters from ISC_event_init().
3. Added SYSV-semaphore based implementation of IPC to isc_sync.cpp.
This should fix CORE-2102: Firebird 2.5 does not build on MacOS (Darwin).
4. Fixed use of posic CS without (x)inetd (i.e. fb_inet_server -s).
5. Fixed (to be reviewed by Dmitry) recovery after some process death in lock manager.
2) Replaced "early" (before LM) checkouts with "late" (inside LM) ones.
3) Removed the mutex protection that's no longer necessary.
Note: the new LM contains some future code (currently commented out) which will be enabled and tested after the Alpha release.
1) Separate process and owner blocks. Multiplex blocking signals via single blocking thread.
2) Enable direct in-process AST delivery.
3) Drop PREVENT_OWNER_STARVATION code as not compatible with the new LM structure.
4) Synchronize LM using its own mutex instead of SCH.
5) Implement wakeup'n'remap code for waiting owners.
6) Add more debugging points for memory remaps.
7) Cleanup and style.
Hopefully, this attempt is more POSIX-friendly than my previous one.
