2465 6233 d 17 h jermar /trunk/ Merge arm32 into trunk.  
2462 6235 d 12 h jermar /trunk/kernel/ Replace gcc-specific __FUNCTION__ with C99 __func__.
suncc's xregs=no%float can be used only on sparc64.
 
2451 6237 d 13 h jermar /trunk/kernel/generic/ JoinMe -> Lingering  
2446 6240 d 17 h jermar /trunk/kernel/generic/ More efficient and simpler task termination.

Based on the assumption, that after its creation, only the task itself can create more threads for itself,
the last thread with userspace context to execute thread_exit() will perform futex and IPC cleanup. When
the task has no threads, it is destroyed. Both the cleanup and destruction is controlled by reference
counting.

As for userspace threads, even though there could be a global garbage collector for joining threads, it is
much simpler if the uinit thread detaches itself before switching to userspace.

task_kill() is now an idempotent operation. It just instructs the threads within a task to exit.

Change in the name of a thread state: Undead -> JoinMe.
 
2445 6240 d 18 h decky /trunk/ initial merge of branches/fs
(not finished, huge cleanup is needed)
 
2444 6241 d 9 h jermar /trunk/kernel/ First fixes for suncc support.
It is going to be a long way...
 
2441 6241 d 11 h decky /trunk/kernel/ fix ICC compilation  
2440 6241 d 11 h jermar /trunk/kernel/generic/ Fix the problem with sys_thread_create() by splitting the create and attach functionality of
thread_create(). Now it is possible to specify a flag that will cause thread_create() to only allocate and
initialize the thread structure. A call to thread_attach() will make the thread visible to the system.
This arrangement makes it easier to undo creation of a thread in case of a failure in sys_thread_create().
 
2310 6265 d 14 h jermar /trunk/kernel/generic/ Cleanup the waitq_wakeup() interface.
Replace numeric constants (i.e. 0)
and boolean constants (i.e. false) with
more readable WAKEUP_FIRST. Also change the
type of the second argument of waitq_wakeup()
to a newly introduced type wakeup_mode_t.

Fix behaviour of waitq_wakeup() in case
that WAKEUP_ALL semantics is required
but no threads are sleeping in the wait
queue. This is a similar fix to that of
Jan Hudecek committed in the RCU branch,
but, IMHO, is more straightforward and
also doesn't eat up previous missed
wakeups.
 
2275 6282 d 14 h decky /trunk/kernel/generic/ add fancy uptime kconsole command  
2268 6284 d 13 h jermar /trunk/kernel/generic/ Document and assert proper usage of THREAD_FLAG_WIRED.
Original patch by Jan Hudecek.
 
2227 6294 d 2 h decky /trunk/kernel/ start shutdown infrastructure  
2218 6295 d 9 h decky /trunk/kernel/ support the possibility to send EOI or Interrupt Acknowledgement
prior to processing the interrupt
(this is essential on some architectures to prevent preemption deadlock)
 
2216 6295 d 12 h decky /trunk/ make thread ID 64 bit (task ID is 64 bit already)
cleanup thread syscalls
 
2208 6295 d 14 h decky /trunk/kernel/generic/ use spinlock only on console output, not other print functions
cleanup
 
2187 6296 d 20 h decky /trunk/kernel/generic/ add syscall for getting current thread ID  
2183 6297 d 16 h jermar /trunk/kernel/generic/ Continue to de-oversynchronize the kernel.
- replace as->refcount with an atomic counter; accesses to this
reference counter are not to be done when the as->lock mutex is held;
this gets us rid of mutex_lock_active();

Remove the possibility of a deadlock between TLB shootdown and asidlock.
- get rid of mutex_lock_active() on as->lock
- when locking the asidlock spinlock, always do it conditionally and with
preemption disabled; in the unsuccessful case, enable interrupts and try again
- there should be no deadlock between TLB shootdown and the as->lock mutexes
- PLEASE REVIEW !!!

Add DEADLOCK_PROBE's to places where we have spinlock_trylock() loops.
 
2170 6302 d 10 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 6305 d 17 h jermar /trunk/kernel/generic/include/mm/ Remove out of date comment.  
2128 6349 d 13 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.
 
2126 6350 d 10 h decky /trunk/kernel/ small cleanup, more work coming  
2125 6350 d 12 h decky /trunk/ experimental support for Objective C
(disabled by default)
 
2124 6350 d 14 h decky /trunk/kernel/generic/ implement simple realloc()  
2122 6356 d 17 h decky /trunk/kernel/generic/ explicit typecast, fix signed/unsigned comparison  
2120 6356 d 17 h decky /trunk/kernel/generic/include/syscall/ specify syscall handler arguments  
2109 6357 d 21 h jermar /trunk/kernel/generic/ Revert thread_interrupt_sleep() to waitq_interrupt_sleep().
I'd prefer that this, IMO, waitq related stuff stays together.
 
2107 6358 d 11 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 6358 d 19 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.
 
2105 6362 d 20 h decky /trunk/kernel/ move ipc structures to ipc.h  
2103 6363 d 12 h decky /trunk/kernel/generic/include/ move timeout_t to timeout.h
move other helper types to thread.h
 
2098 6363 d 14 h decky /trunk/kernel/generic/ avoid conflict with potential keyword  
2096 6363 d 14 h decky /trunk/kernel/generic/include/ move thread_t to thread.h  
2094 6363 d 15 h decky /trunk/kernel/generic/ avoid conflict with potential keyword  
2093 6363 d 15 h decky /trunk/kernel/ spinlock extern declaration macro  
2092 6363 d 16 h decky /trunk/kernel/generic/include/ move cpu_t to cpu.h  
2090 6364 d 15 h decky /trunk/kernel/generic/include/proc/ cleanup garbage  
2089 6364 d 19 h decky /trunk/ huge type system cleanup
remove cyclical type dependencies across multiple header files
many minor coding style fixes
 
2085 6370 d 18 h decky /trunk/kernel/ typedef elimination  
2083 6370 d 19 h decky /trunk/kernel/ typedef elimination  
2081 6370 d 19 h decky /trunk/kernel/generic/include/ another typedefs to anonymous structs
