The pass() function that does the prompting is still in
/sys/src/cmd/init.c, but the call seems to have vanished. I guess I
best look in old sources for it...
Here is what it used to look like:
for(;;){
if(iscpu){
consctl = open("#c/consctl", OWRITE);
key = open("#c/key", OREAD);
if(consctl<0 || key<0 || write(consctl, "rawon", 5) != 5)
print("init: can't check password; insecure\n");
else{
pass(key);
write(consctl, "rawoff", 6);
}
close(consctl);
close(key);
}
print("\ninit: starting /bin/rc\n");
fexec(rcexec);
manual = 1;
cmd = 0;
sleep(1000);
}
And here is the new one:
for(;;){
print("\ninit: starting /bin/rc\n");
fexec(rcexec);
manual = 1;
cmd = 0;
sleep(1000);
}
I always regretted losing this bit.
