2141 6350 d 18 h jermar /trunk/ The Ultimate Solution To Illegal Virtual Aliases.
It is better to avoid them completely than to fight them.
Switch the sparc64 port to 16K pages. The TLBs and TSBs
continue to operate with 8K pages only. Page tables and
other generic parts operate with 16K pages.

Because the MMU doesn't support 16K directly, each 16K
page is emulated by a pair of 8K pages. With 16K pages,
illegal aliases cannot be created in 16K D-cache.
 
2134 6351 d 22 h jermar /trunk/kernel/ Reworked handling of illegal virtual aliases caused by frame reuse.
We moved the incomplete handling from backend's frame method to
backend's page_fault method. The page_fault method is the one that
can create an illegal alias if it writes the userspace frame using
kernel address with a different page color than the page to which is
this frame mapped in userspace. When we detect this, we do D-cache
shootdown on all processors (!!!).

If we add code that accesses userspace memory from kernel address
space, we will have to check for illegal virtual aliases at all such
places.

I tested this on a 4-way simulated E6500 and a real-world Ultra 5,
which has unfortunatelly only one processor.

This solves ticket #26.
 
2133 6351 d 22 h jermar /trunk/kernel/generic/src/mm/ Coding style and indentation fixes.  
2132 6353 d 5 h jermar /trunk/kernel/generic/src/mm/ Fix coding style in the address space area backends.  
2128 6393 d 22 h jermar /trunk/ Add arm32 architecture. The 32 suffix is used to specify that 16-bit Thumb
instructions are not used. The arm32 code is mostly composed of placeholders
that need to be replaced by real implementation. So far, the arm32 tree
only compiles. If run under GXEmul simulator, an infinit loop at the
kernel entry point will be entered.

2109 6402 d 6 h jermar /trunk/kernel/generic/ Revert thread_interrupt_sleep() to waitq_interrupt_sleep().
I'd prefer that this, IMO, waitq related stuff stays together.
 
2108 6402 d 6 h jermar /trunk/kernel/generic/src/console/ Cleanup kconsole.c  
2107 6402 d 20 h jermar /trunk/ When clock() is called by an external interrupt dispatched by the IRQ dispatcher,
no spinlock can be held or the kernel will not be preemptive. This fixes Ticket #24.

Formating and indentation fixes.
 
2106 6403 d 4 h jermar /trunk/kernel/ Merge as_t structure into one and leave the differring parts in as_genarch_t.

Indentation and formatting changes in header files.

many minor coding style fixes

2083 6415 d 4 h decky /trunk/kernel/ typedef elimination  
2076 6418 d 5 h jermar /trunk/kernel/ Beat the implicit illegal virtual alias created by reusing userspace frames.
In the anonymous and ELF backends, if the architecture has virtually indexed D-cache,
selectively flush cachelines belonging to the frame being freed.
This fixes Ticket #20.
 
2071 6419 d 21 h jermar /trunk/ (c) versus (C)  
2070 6420 d 5 h jermar /trunk/ Rather big indentation and formatting changes.
More inteligent long line wrapping.
 
2069 6421 d 19 h jermar /trunk/ Improve formatting.  
2068 6427 d 4 h jermar /trunk/kernel/ Formatting and indentation fixes.  
2067 6430 d 3 h jermar /trunk/kernel/ More formatting changes.  
2066 6432 d 2 h jermar /trunk/kernel/generic/src/main/ Formatting changes.
Bump year in kernel copyright.
 
2064 6433 d 20 h vana /trunk/ SIMICS added as a simulator kernel runs on  
2063 6434 d 0 h jermar /trunk/kernel/generic/src/lib/ Call big endian byte swap function instead of little endian.
