4490 5486 d 7 h decky /trunk/kernel/ remove redundant index_t and count_t types (which were always quite ambiguous and not actually needed)  
3240 5793 d 16 h decky / move unfinished ObjC support to a separate branch  
3222 5816 d 10 h svoboda /trunk/ Merge program-loader related stuff from dynload branch to trunk. (huge)  
2745 5948 d 15 h decky /trunk/ code cleanup (mostly signed/unsigned)
allow extra compiler warnings
 
2556 6099 d 16 h jermar /trunk/kernel/generic/ Rename as_get_size() to as_area_get_size() and add a doxygen comment.  
2183 6276 d 10 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 6281 d 4 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2142 6284 d 11 h jermar /trunk/kernel/generic/include/mm/ Remove out of date comment.  
2126 6329 d 4 h decky /trunk/kernel/ small cleanup, more work coming  
2125 6329 d 6 h decky /trunk/ experimental support for Objective C
(disabled by default)
 
2107 6337 d 5 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 6337 d 13 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 6342 d 9 h decky /trunk/kernel/generic/ avoid conflict with potential keyword  
2093 6342 d 9 h decky /trunk/kernel/ spinlock extern declaration macro  
2089 6343 d 13 h decky /trunk/ huge type system cleanup
remove cyclical type dependencies across multiple header files
many minor coding style fixes
 
2071 6354 d 6 h jermar /trunk/ (c) versus (C)  
2015 6393 d 6 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 6398 d 5 h jermar /trunk/kernel/ Initial support for handling illegal virtual aliases on sparc64.  
2000 6404 d 15 h decky /trunk/kernel/ move files to more proper locations  
1914 6455 d 12 h jermar /trunk/kernel/generic/ Add function for printing out info about address space.  
1891 6475 d 4 h jermar /trunk/kernel/ sparc64 work:
- Experimental support for TSB (Translation Storage Buffer).
 
1890 6475 d 15 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 6476 d 6 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 6479 d 9 h jermar /trunk/ C99 compliant header guards (hopefully) everywhere in the kernel.
Formatting and indentation changes.
Small improvements in sparc64.
 
1868 6488 d 12 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 6503 d 13 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 6544 d 8 h decky / move kernel/trunk, uspace/trunk and boot/trunk to trunk/kernel, trunk/uspace and trunk/boot  
1780 6551 d 9 h jermar /kernel/trunk/ Replace old __u?? types with respective C99 variants (e.g. uint32_t, int64_t, uintptr_t etc.).  
1702 6572 d 12 h cejka /kernel/trunk/ Kernel doxygen comments updated.  
1468 6585 d 10 h jermar /kernel/trunk/ Function for destroying address space for which there is no other reference in the kernel.  
1428 6589 d 4 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 6589 d 7 h jermar /kernel/trunk/generic/ Make address space backend data a union.  
1424 6589 d 9 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 6589 d 13 h jermar /kernel/trunk/ Update page fault handlers to distinguish between different access modes that had caused the page fault.  
1417 6591 d 5 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 6591 d 18 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 6592 d 5 h jermar /kernel/trunk/generic/ Reimplement memory sharing. Currently, only
anonymous address space areas can be shared.
 
1411 6592 d 10 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 6593 d 3 h jermar /kernel/trunk/generic/ Some shared memory stuff (not completed).
Support for address space area backends.
Add ELF and anonymous memory backends.
 
1387 6595 d 11 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.
