Otherwise, checksum calculation would be an incredible complexity. It could, however be done. If the AS is split into multiple processes, the following can be done: 1) use stacq to maintain counters. 2) use entry locks on the individual entries. 3) use the pclocks on the components to validate checksum entries. With any luck, we will have FAMIS files at our disposal by the time the AS splits, and all of this will be unnecessary. --BIM 1984-07-23 */ declare (hdrp, segp, ep) pointer; declare 1 mt_header aligned based (hdrp), 2 header aligned, /* data mstb_mgr_ owns */ 3 comp_hdr aligned like comp_header, 3 lock bit (36) aligned, /* file lock */ 3 pclock fixed bin (35), /* change count, used for passive locking */ 3 mti aligned like ms_table_info, 3 (number_components, entries_per_component, entry_offset) unsigned fixed binary (18), 3 (total_entries, deleted_entries, used_entries) fixed binary (35), 3 perm_data_checksum fixed bin (35), /* sum of n_components, entries_per_component, entry_offset, total_entries, header_size, entry_size */ 3 meters, /* only maintained if mti.keep_meters is on */ 4 searches fixed binary (35), 4 entries_examined fixed binary (35), 3 pad (12) bit (36) aligned, /* 50 words to end of this */ 2 header_data (0 refer (mt_header.mti.header_size)) bit (36) aligned; declare 1 comp_header aligned based (segp), /* 16 words */ 2 type character (32), 2 (dt_created, dt_updated) fixed binary (71), 2 component unsigned fixed binary (18), 2 pad (3) bit (36); /* Pad out to 16 words. */ declare 1 entry aligned based (ep), /* 10 + entry size */ 2 header aligned, 3 flags unaligned, 4 (used, deleted, inconsistent) bit (1), 4 pad bit (15), 3 checksum fixed bin (18) unsigned unaligned, /* checksums ENTIRE entry, including header */ 3 lock bit (36) aligned, /* unused for now */ 3 key character (32) unaligned, 2 entry_data (mt_header.mti.entry_size) bit (36) aligned; /* End include file mstb_format.incl.pl1 */ */ ----------------------------------------------------------- Historical Background This edition of the Multics software materials and documentation is provided and donated to Massachusetts Institute of Technology by Group Bull including Bull HN Information Systems Inc. as a contribution to computer science knowledge. This donation is made also to give evidence of the common contributions of Massachusetts Institute of Technology, Bell Laboratories, General Electric, Honeywell Information Systems Inc., Honeywell Bull Inc., Groupe Bull and Bull HN Information Systems Inc. to the development of this operating system. Multics development was initiated by Massachusetts Institute of Technology Project MAC (1963-1970), renamed the MIT Laboratory for Computer Science and Artificial Intelligence in the mid 1970s, under the leadership of Professor Fernando Jose Corbato. Users consider that Multics provided the best software architecture for managing computer hardware properly and for executing programs. Many subsequent operating systems incorporated Multics principles. Multics was distributed in 1975 to 2000 by Group Bull in Europe , and in the U.S. by Bull HN Information Systems Inc., as successor in interest by change in name only to Honeywell Bull Inc. and Honeywell Information Systems Inc. . ----------------------------------------------------------- Permission to use, copy, modify, and distribute these programs and their documentation for any purpose and without fee is hereby granted,provided that the below copyright notice and historical background appear in all copies and that both the copyright notice and historical background and this permission notice appear in supporting documentation, and that the names of MIT, HIS, Bull or Bull HN not be used in advertising or publicity pertaining to distribution of the programs without specific prior written permission.
