3984 5698 d 13 h svoboda /trunk/kernel/ The ia32-specific boot code is written completely in assembly for no reason. Start fixing this. For now rewrite the copying of multiboot info to C.  
3982 5699 d 14 h jermar /trunk/kernel/ Do not set sysinfo for uspace drivers directly in the kernel drivers.  
3973 5700 d 21 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()
 
3972 5701 d 9 h decky /trunk/kernel/ kernel memory management revisited (phase 1): proper support for zone flags
- the zone_t structures are now statically allocated to be easily available
- the locking scheme was simplified
- new flags for non-available zones were introduced
- FRAME_LOW_4_GiB flag is removed, the functionality will be eventually reimplemented using a generic mechanism
 
3964 5703 d 19 h decky /trunk/kernel/ switch between the preference of kernel/uspace IRQ hash table  
3963 5705 d 17 h jermar /trunk/kernel/ The kernel i8042 driver should be instance-neutral.  
3947 5706 d 15 h jermar /trunk/ This is the evil commit. In particular, it does:

- introduces more powerful pseudo code for userspace IRQ top-half handlers
- changes the internals of IRQ dispatching
- simplifies the kernel's i8042 driver
- adapts the uspace i8042 driver to make use of the new pseudocode
- breaks all other architectures except ia32
- breaks almost all existing drivers
- breaks switching between uspace and kernel drivers
 
3941 5707 d 12 h jermar /trunk/kernel/ Let IRQ claim methods take irq_t * instead of the instance argument.  
3940 5707 d 15 h decky /trunk/kernel/ make hw_area API more generic
this allows mapping of EGA VRAM on ia32/amd64
 
3932 5708 d 10 h jermar /trunk/kernel/ Kill arch/drivers/ega.h. Provide one-stop shopping
place for architectures with ia32 legacy I/O space.
 
3930 5708 d 11 h jermar /trunk/kernel/ Adapt most of the kernel to ioport8_t, ioport16_t and ioport32_t types.  
3908 5711 d 14 h decky /trunk/ overhaul pareas: use one single physical area for the physical address space not belonging to physical memory  
3906 5712 d 10 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 5712 d 17 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 5713 d 12 h jermar /trunk/ Get rid of CONFIG_DEBUG_AS_WATCHPOINT.  
3891 5713 d 12 h jermar /trunk/ Get rid of CONFIG_SIMICS_FIX.  
3890 5713 d 12 h jermar /trunk/ Get rid of CONFIG_DEBUG_ALLREGS.  
3880 5715 d 13 h decky /trunk/kernel/arch/ simplify configuration
introduce arch_construct_function and inb/outb (sometimes empty) on all platforms
various code cleanup
 
3802 5739 d 17 h decky /trunk/kernel/arch/ fallback to VGA registers if VESA routine fails  
3790 5750 d 21 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 5751 d 10 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 5754 d 19 h jermar /trunk/kernel/ Only one kernel EGA driver to rule them all.  
3751 5762 d 21 h svoboda /trunk/kernel/arch/ia32/src/drivers/ Revive kernel EGA fb driver. Plus fix bug -- was using memcpy() for scrolling instead of memmove().  
3709 5773 d 13 h decky /trunk/kernel/ invert VGA 3:2:3 palette to reflect changes in revision 3692  
3707 5773 d 14 h decky /trunk/ kconsole is optional
kernel & uspace framebuffer rewrite with speedups (some things are slightly broken yet)
 
3672 5784 d 13 h jermar /trunk/ Merge sparc branch to trunk.  
3631 5795 d 11 h jermar /trunk/kernel/arch/ia32/src/ The IA-32 manual is very secretive about the fact that the SYSENTER instruction
disables interrupts (I found only one evidence of this in the instruction's
pseudo code). The sysenter_handler needs to reenable the interrupts in order to
preserve the preemptive nature of the kernel.
 
3485 5845 d 11 h jermar /trunk/ Support for SYSENTER on ia32.  
3274 5901 d 17 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.
 
3240 5911 d 22 h decky / move unfinished ObjC support to a separate branch  
3234 5915 d 17 h decky /trunk/ reintroduce support for MSIM text console in user space  
3227 5916 d 13 h decky /trunk/kernel/arch/ia32/src/drivers/ remove unnecessary newline  
3222 5934 d 17 h svoboda /trunk/ Merge program-loader related stuff from dynload branch to trunk. (huge)  
3209 5936 d 12 h jermar /trunk/kernel/arch/ia32/src/smp/ Allocate AP's GDT from first 4 GiB.  
3104 5967 d 1 h svoboda /trunk/kernel/ Declare arguments for memstr.h operations as pointers instead of uintptr_t.  
3097 5968 d 13 h decky /trunk/kernel/ resurrect klog  
3071 5969 d 18 h decky /trunk/kernel/ reflect changes in generic code
proper formatting directives
coding style
 
3043 5970 d 12 h jermar /trunk/kernel/arch/ia32/ Some inline functions in memstr.h seem to be of uncertain origin (ia32).
Replace either with built-in functions or with generic functions.
 
2784 6045 d 12 h jermar /trunk/kernel/arch/ Fortify ia32 and amd64 kernels against mallicious uspace applications that set
DF prior to entering the kernel. For AMD64 syscalls, we don't use the CLD
instruction, but make use of the SFMASK MSR instead. Simics works fine with
it, but QEMU seems to have a problem.
 
2775 6049 d 23 h cejka /trunk/kernel/arch/ia32/src/ Added missing ia32/context.S from last commit.
