2170 6308 d 7 h jermar /trunk/kernel/ Simplify synchronization in as_switch().
The function was oversynchronized, which
was causing deadlocks on the address
space mutex.

Now, address spaces can only be switched
when the asidlock is held. This also protects
stealing of ASIDs. No other synchronization
is necessary.
 
2142 6311 d 14 h jermar /trunk/kernel/generic/include/mm/ Remove out of date comment.  
2126 6356 d 6 h decky /trunk/kernel/ small cleanup, more work coming  
2125 6356 d 9 h decky /trunk/ experimental support for Objective C
(disabled by default)
 
2107 6364 d 7 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 6364 d 16 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.
 
2094 6369 d 11 h decky /trunk/kernel/generic/ avoid conflict with potential keyword  
2093 6369 d 12 h decky /trunk/kernel/ spinlock extern declaration macro  
2089 6370 d 15 h decky /trunk/ huge type system cleanup
remove cyclical type dependencies across multiple header files
many minor coding style fixes
 
2071 6381 d 8 h jermar /trunk/ (c) versus (C)  
2015 6420 d 9 h jermar /trunk/ Rework support for virtually indexed cache.
Instead of repeatedly flushing the data cache, which was a huge overkill, refuse to create an illegal address alias
in the kernel (again) and allocate appropriate page color in userspace instead. Extend the detection also to
SYS_PHYSMEM_MAP syscall.

Add support for tracking physical memory areas mappable by SYS_PHYSMEM_MAP.

Lots of coding style changes.
 
2009 6425 d 8 h jermar /trunk/kernel/ Initial support for handling illegal virtual aliases on sparc64.  
2000 6431 d 18 h decky /trunk/kernel/ move files to more proper locations  
1914 6482 d 14 h jermar /trunk/kernel/generic/ Add function for printing out info about address space.  
1891 6502 d 7 h jermar /trunk/kernel/ sparc64 work:
- Experimental support for TSB (Translation Storage Buffer).
 
1890 6502 d 17 h jermar /trunk/ - Create a dedicated slab cache for as_t objects and switch from malloc/free to slab_alloc/slab_free for
them.

- Slightly fix and improve both the kernel and userspace atomic_add() on sparc64.

- More TSB work on the sparc64 front.
 
1889 6503 d 9 h jermar /trunk/kernel/ Fix bug in mm/as.c:
- as_area_destroy() should not work with AS but as

sparc64 work:
- start implementing TSB support
 
1888 6506 d 12 h jermar /trunk/ C99 compliant header guards (hopefully) everywhere in the kernel.
Formatting and indentation changes.
Small improvements in sparc64.
 
1868 6515 d 14 h jermar /trunk/ sparc64 work.
- the syscall wrapper needs to use the "memory"
clobber specifier to prevent over-optimization.
- on sparc64, the user address space spans the whole
64-bit space and therefore the macro
USER_ADDRESS_SPACE_SIZE_ARCH, as it was defined,
overflows to 0
- stop using USER_ADDRESS_SPACE_SIZE_ARCH and define
MAX_HEAP_SIZE instead
- in our situation when kernel and user address spaces
are separate, the G (global) bit cannot be used
(there is no point in it anymore)
- add the DEBUG() macro to stdio.h; DEBUG() uses
SYS_IO and is a good debugging tool for getting
early userspace to work
 
1851 6530 d 15 h jermar /trunk/kernel/ sparc64 work.
Define the istate structure.
Move the identity-mapping handler to assembly.
Make the preemptible handler more general so that TL=1 MMU exceptions can make use of it.

Little bit of formatting and indentation.
 
1787 6571 d 10 h decky / move kernel/trunk, uspace/trunk and boot/trunk to trunk/kernel, trunk/uspace and trunk/boot  
1780 6578 d 12 h jermar /kernel/trunk/ Replace old __u?? types with respective C99 variants (e.g. uint32_t, int64_t, uintptr_t etc.).  
1702 6599 d 14 h cejka /kernel/trunk/ Kernel doxygen comments updated.  
1468 6612 d 12 h jermar /kernel/trunk/ Function for destroying address space for which there is no other reference in the kernel.  
1428 6616 d 6 h palkovsky /kernel/trunk/generic/ Added 256K slab, so that AMD can boot (until ELF loader is fixed).
Added AS_AREA_RECV so that the caller can receive AS_AREA.
 
1425 6616 d 9 h jermar /kernel/trunk/generic/ Make address space backend data a union.  
1424 6616 d 11 h jermar /kernel/trunk/ Move the sharing functionality to address space area backends.
Add backend for continuous regions of physical memory.
Sharing for these areas works automagically now.
 
1423 6616 d 15 h jermar /kernel/trunk/ Update page fault handlers to distinguish between different access modes that had caused the page fault.  
1417 6618 d 8 h jermar /kernel/trunk/generic/ Modify as_area_share() to accept destination area flags bitmask from the sender
(i.e. the sender can limit access mode to the shared area for the recipient).
Modify IPC_M_AS_AREA_SEND code to support this. Arguments for sender: arg1=as_area,
arg2=size, arg3=flags_mask.

The mechanism seems to work, but the page fault handlers need to be altered to
distinguish between faults under different access modes.
 
1415 6618 d 20 h jermar /kernel/trunk/generic/ Some renaming to prevent confusion.
as_lock -> inactive_as_with_asid_lock
as_t::refcount -> as_t::cpu_refcount
 
1413 6619 d 7 h jermar /kernel/trunk/generic/ Reimplement memory sharing. Currently, only
anonymous address space areas can be shared.
 
1411 6619 d 12 h jermar /kernel/trunk/ Modify the hierarchy of page fault handlers to pass access mode that caused the fault.
Architectures are required to pass either PF_ACCESS_READ, PF_ACCESS_WRITE or PF_ACCESS_EXEC
to as_page_fault(), depending on the cause of the fault.
 
1409 6620 d 6 h jermar /kernel/trunk/generic/ Some shared memory stuff (not completed).
Support for address space area backends.
Add ELF and anonymous memory backends.
 
1387 6622 d 14 h jermar /kernel/trunk/generic/ Add used_space_insert() and used_space_remove().
These are the alpha versions of functions that
will help to map used and unused portions of address
space areas. Currently unused, but many as_area operations
will be more efficient when the used space B+tree map
is used.
 
1380 6623 d 9 h jermar /kernel/trunk/ Turn address space lock, address space area lock and
page_ht_lock into mutexes.
 
1358 6627 d 12 h jermar /kernel/trunk/generic/ Cleanup after removal of as_area_accept and as_area_send.  
1329 6629 d 12 h palkovsky /kernel/trunk/generic/ Added support to IPC for simple page sharing.  
1306 6632 d 13 h jermar /kernel/trunk/generic/ Add SYS_AS_AREA_DESTROY syscall.
Add few error codes to errno.h
and change as.c accordingly.
 
1288 6638 d 17 h jermar /kernel/trunk/ Complete implementation of copy_from_uspace() and copy_to_uspace()
for amd64 and ia32. Other architectures still compile and run,
but need to implement their own assembly-only memcpy(), memcpy_from_uspace(),
memcpy_to_uspace() and their failover parts. For these architectures
only dummy implementations are provided.
 
1239 6647 d 11 h jermar /kernel/trunk/generic/ Prevent race in as_area_send() by allowing the address space area to be
created with AS_AREA_ATTR_PARTIAL attribute.
