4047 5610 d 0 h jermar /trunk/ Improve the configuration file.

- Support for easy configuration with sane defaults.

- Fix the ambiguous MACHINE variable by introducing the PROCESSOR variable.

- Eliminate some unnecessarily detailed questions by providing defaults for the
Serengeti machine.

- Introduce CONFIG_HID_IN and CONFIG_HID_OUT variables. They help to limit the
number of offered HID devices. In the future, they can be also used to
configure the way how the serial controller devices are connected to the
keyboard / serial line modules on some platforms where we can't autodetect.
 
4042 5610 d 4 h jermar /trunk/ Complete emancipation of kernel serial controller drivers (i8042, ns16550 and
z8530). Provide a common keyboard module for PC and Sun keyboards. The serial
line module is still to follow.
 
4026 5613 d 21 h jermar /trunk/ Make the kbd port drivers platform neutral by using PIO functions.
The kernel now supplies the physical address and the kernel virtual address.
 
4022 5613 d 23 h svoboda /trunk/ Move multiboot parsing to genarch/*/multiboot and adapt it for use with both ia32 and amd64. Multiboot info parsing now supported on amd64, too.  
4021 5614 d 0 h jermar /trunk/kernel/ There is no need to define ioport{8,16,32}_t types for each architecture separately.  
4017 5614 d 5 h decky /trunk/kernel/arch/amd64/ better inline assembler readability using the new symbolic syntax  
3987 5616 d 0 h svoboda /trunk/kernel/ Read command line for multiboot modules on ia32 and copy it to task name. Other arches will need to initialize task names in the init structure to an empty string.  
3982 5617 d 2 h jermar /trunk/kernel/ Do not set sysinfo for uspace drivers directly in the kernel drivers.  
3973 5618 d 9 h decky /trunk/kernel/ kernel memory management revisited (phase 2): map physical memory according to zones
- ia32: register reserved and ACPI zones
- pareas are now used only for mapping of present physical memory (hw_area() is gone)
- firmware zones and physical addresses outside any zones are allowed to be mapped generally
- fix nasty antient bug in zones_insert_zone()
 
3963 5623 d 5 h jermar /trunk/kernel/ The kernel i8042 driver should be instance-neutral.  
3948 5624 d 3 h jermar /trunk/kernel/arch/amd64/ Unbreak amd64.  
3940 5625 d 3 h decky /trunk/kernel/ make hw_area API more generic
this allows mapping of EGA VRAM on ia32/amd64
 
3932 5625 d 22 h jermar /trunk/kernel/ Kill arch/drivers/ega.h. Provide one-stop shopping
place for architectures with ia32 legacy I/O space.
 
3929 5625 d 23 h jermar /trunk/kernel/arch/ Introduce ioport8_t, ioport16_t and ioport32_t. These types are to be used with
pio_read_n() and pio_write_n() functions. This breaks everything.
 
3908 5629 d 2 h decky /trunk/ overhaul pareas: use one single physical area for the physical address space not belonging to physical memory  
3906 5629 d 21 h jermar /trunk/kernel/ IRQ handlers are using one superfluous argument and an unused elipsis.
On the other hand, IRQ claim functions would need to be passed the instance
argument.
 
3902 5630 d 5 h jermar /trunk/kernel/ Introduce a more platform-neutral name for programmed I/O.

The new API looks like pio_read_n() or pio_write_n(), where n is 8, 16 or 32.
The old API (i.e. inb(), inw(), inl(), outb() outw(), outl()) may have made
some people think that the interface is only to be used with the separate I/O
space. That's not the case. This API is to be implemented on all platforms
so that we can finally have really generic kernel device drivers.
 
3892 5630 d 23 h jermar /trunk/ Get rid of CONFIG_DEBUG_AS_WATCHPOINT.  
3890 5631 d 0 h jermar /trunk/ Get rid of CONFIG_DEBUG_ALLREGS.  
3880 5633 d 0 h decky /trunk/kernel/arch/ simplify configuration
introduce arch_construct_function and inb/outb (sometimes empty) on all platforms
various code cleanup
 
3879 5633 d 0 h decky /trunk/kernel/arch/ simplify configuration in Makefiles  
3878 5633 d 0 h decky /trunk/kernel/arch/ introduce fncptr_t and ioport_t on all platforms  
3851 5644 d 3 h jermar /trunk/kernel/arch/amd64/src/ Fix amd64 UP build.  
3838 5645 d 7 h decky /trunk/kernel/ make RANDI a generic macro  
3802 5657 d 5 h decky /trunk/kernel/arch/ fallback to VGA registers if VESA routine fails  
3790 5668 d 8 h svoboda /trunk/kernel/ Make newlines in panic messages consistent. Add periods at end of messages so that it is obvious whether they are printed entirely.  
3788 5668 d 22 h svoboda /trunk/kernel/ Unify newlines in fault_if_from_uspace() format strings. (Remove them and print newline automatically). Also start messages with caps.  
3779 5672 d 6 h jermar /trunk/kernel/ Only one kernel EGA driver to rule them all.  
3762 5676 d 22 h decky /trunk/kernel/arch/amd64/src/ redraw kernel console  
3712 5690 d 23 h decky /trunk/kernel/arch/amd64/include/ synchronize drivers with ia32  
3711 5690 d 23 h decky /trunk/kernel/arch/amd64/include/ remove amd64 drivers  
3707 5691 d 1 h decky /trunk/ kconsole is optional
kernel & uspace framebuffer rewrite with speedups (some things are slightly broken yet)
 
3706 5691 d 2 h decky /trunk/ cstyle & small fixes  
3485 5762 d 23 h jermar /trunk/ Support for SYSENTER on ia32.  
3380 5798 d 1 h jermar /trunk/kernel/arch/amd64/include/ Prevent 'tmp' in amd64's atomic_lock_arch() from being allocated
to the same register as 'val->count'.
 
3369 5802 d 3 h decky /trunk/ configurable cross-compiler prefix (using CROSS_PREFIX)  
3274 5819 d 5 h jermar /trunk/ memcpy(), memmove() and similar functions return dst instead of src.
Fix all implementations, including those in assembly. ppc32 assembly
version didn't seem to be affected by this.
 
3233 5833 d 5 h decky /trunk/ remove dummy page coloring facility, which is currenty not used  
3222 5852 d 4 h svoboda /trunk/ Merge program-loader related stuff from dynload branch to trunk. (huge)  
3179 5870 d 3 h jermar /trunk/kernel/ Introduce the notion of FPU_NO_CFLAGS and separate building of test/fpu
objects and building the rest of kernel objects. Now, amd64 and ia32 can
enable things such as SSE selectively for the test/fpu/*.
