[9fans] patch for /rc/bin/cpurc

[Antonin]

I suggest a small change to /rc/bin/cpurc to allow different
configuration of running services on multiple cpu servers:
Insert these 4 lines:

# cpu-specific startup
if(test -d /cfg/$sysname/
service)                                          <-- inserted
  /bin/bind /cfg/$sysname/service /rc/bin/service
<-- inserted
if(test -d /cfg/$sysname/
service.auth)                                  <-- inserted
  /bin/bind /cfg/$sysname/service.auth /rc/bin/service.auth    <--
inserted
if(test -e /cfg/$sysname/cpurc)
  . /cfg/$sysname/cpurc

Is the "patch" system still working?
It's been a while since I looked.

listen calls newns() internally, so changing the namespace by hand
doesn't affect it.  listen can be given alternate service directories
(see listen(8)) and will now ignore zero-length files in the service
directories, so binding /dev/null onto files in /bin/service (for
example) in /cfg/$sysname/namespace can be used to alter the set of
services offered.

The patch system is still working.  We're a bit behind processing the
queue but working on it.

You are right.
Better way is to create file /cfg/$sysname/namespace .
I didn't know about this option.
Thanks.
