3476 5755 d 22 h jermar /trunk/kernel/generic/src/ipc/ Add comments documenting our treatment of the task's active call counter.  
3449 5762 d 20 h jermar /trunk/kernel/generic/src/ipc/ Fix task active call accounting for IPC_M_HUNGUP calls.  
3445 5763 d 20 h jermar /trunk/kernel/ Rename ipc/ipc_kbox.c to ipc/kbox.c.  
3441 5764 d 3 h svoboda /trunk/kernel/generic/src/ Use LOG() instead of printf() for debug messages.  
3438 5764 d 4 h svoboda /trunk/ Merge syscall tracer (trace) and relevant part of udebug interface from tracing to trunk.  
3395 5771 d 21 h jermar /trunk/kernel/generic/ Kernel's ipc_data_t and uspace's ipc_call_t must be in sync.

This commit fixes a problem introduced in revision 3362, when
ipc_data_t was enlarged by the caller_phone member. This resulted
in sys_ipc_wait_for_call() passing larger structure to uspace
than requested, leading to a random damage of userspace memory.
 
3394 5772 d 19 h jermar /trunk/kernel/generic/src/ipc/ cstyle for ipc.c  
3370 5784 d 20 h jermar /trunk/kernel/generic/ Synchronous IPC must be interruptible.  
3363 5787 d 22 h jermar /trunk/kernel/generic/src/ipc/ Demasquerade the caller phone during ipc_answer_n() rather than in
ipc_wait_for_call().
 
3362 5787 d 22 h jermar /trunk/kernel/generic/ Fix processing of answers to forwarded masqueraded calls.  
3332 5796 d 3 h jermar /trunk/kernel/generic/src/ipc/ Fix types when processing IPC_M_DATA_WRITE arguments.  
3186 5849 d 22 h jermar /trunk/kernel/ Support for active mutexes. Active mutexes implement busy waiting, pretty much
in the same way as spinlocks, but can be passed to condition variables, which is
the motivation for this enhancement.
 
3184 5851 d 1 h jermar /trunk/kernel/generic/src/ipc/ Fix a scary two-year old bug: do not attempt to initialize a call structure if
its allocation failed.
 
3104 5867 d 9 h svoboda /trunk/kernel/ Declare arguments for memstr.h operations as pointers instead of uintptr_t.  
3090 5870 d 1 h decky /trunk/kernel/generic/src/ipc/ revert coding style change  
3054 5870 d 2 h decky /trunk/kernel/generic/src/ipc/ proper printf formatting  
3020 5875 d 20 h jermar /trunk/kernel/generic/ Turn phone->lock into mutex.  
2934 5888 d 22 h jermar /trunk/ Do not attempt to malloc() zero bytes of memory during VFS_READ at end of file.  
2802 5929 d 6 h jermar /trunk/kernel/generic/ Fix initialization of answerbox->task in ipc_answerbox_init.
Contributed by Jiri Svoboda.
 
2745 5967 d 5 h decky /trunk/ code cleanup (mostly signed/unsigned)
allow extra compiler warnings
 
2677 6025 d 0 h jermar /trunk/ Rename IPC_M_AS_AREA_SEND to IPC_M_SHARE_OUT. Rename IPC_M_AS_AREA_RECV to
IPC_M_SHARE_IN. Provide user-friendly wrappers for these methods so that even
dummies can get it right. Some applications using simpler protocols still use
these methods directly.
 
2676 6025 d 6 h jermar /trunk/ Simplify the IPC_M_DATA_WRITE protocol. Do not pass the source address space
virtual address to the recipient. This feature was not used anyway. Now
IPC_M_DATA_WRITE and IPC_M_DATA_READ are feature-aligned.
 
2662 6032 d 19 h jermar /trunk/ Add support for IPC_M_DATA_READ calls.  
2661 6032 d 20 h jermar /trunk/kernel/generic/src/ipc/ Release the IPC_M_DATA_WRITE buffer even if the write is refused by the
recipient.
 
2660 6032 d 21 h jermar /trunk/ Rename IPC_M_DATA_SEND to IPC_M_DATA_WRITE. Now, when we also add
IPC_M_DATA_READ, it will not clash and cause confusion with userspace wrappers
such as ipc_data_receive(). Rename the forementioned wrappers to
ipc_data_write_send(), ipc_data_write_receive() and ipc_data_write_deliver().
 
2638 6051 d 20 h jermar /trunk/ Sync IPC comments with IPC code.  
2637 6051 d 21 h cejka /trunk/ Extended IPC_M_CONNECT_TO_ME to use 3 user defined parameters.
Phone identifier is passed in ARG5.
 
2636 6053 d 20 h jermar /trunk/ Update comments wrt the previous commit.
Minor formatting fixes.
 
2635 6053 d 21 h cejka /trunk/ Function ipc_connect_me_to sends 3 user defined arguments now.
One argument added also to ipc_forward_fast.
Fixed devmap and improved its test.
 
2626 6061 d 7 h jermar /trunk/kernel/generic/ Support for 5 payload arguments for IPC irq notifications and the pseudo code.  
2623 6062 d 2 h jermar /trunk/kernel/generic/ Introduce the IPC_FF_ROUTE_FROM_ME forwarding flag.  
2622 6062 d 2 h jermar /trunk/ Add mode argument to IPC forward.
This argument can be used to modify the way forward behaves.
 
2620 6064 d 8 h jermar /trunk/ Be more deterministic when a user accidently uses fast version of IPC
call/answer instead of the full one and passes fewer arguments than required by
the recipient of the call/response.

and the recipient interprets arguments that
were actually not passed by the sender.
 
2619 6065 d 19 h jermar /trunk/ Modify ipc_answer_*() to make use of all six syscall arguments. The recommended
means of answering calls is via the ipc_answer_m() macros (where m denotes the
number of return arguments) that automatically decide between the fast register
version or the slow universal version of ipc_answer().
 
2618 6066 d 8 h jermar /trunk/ Modify asynchronous IPC to make use of all six syscall arguments. The preferred
means of asynchronous communication is now via the set of ipc_call_async_m()
macros, where m is the number of payload arguments passed to the kernel. These
macros will automatically decide between the fast and the universal slow version
of ipc_call_async.
 
2617 6067 d 0 h jermar /trunk/kernel/generic/src/ipc/ STRUCT_TO_USPACE may fail in sys_ipc_call_sync_fast.  
2615 6067 d 4 h jermar /trunk/ Modify synchronous IPC to make use of all six syscall arguments. The preferred
means of synchronous communication is now via the set of ipc_call_sync_m_n()
macros, where m is the number of payload arguments passed to the kernel and n is
the number of return values. These macros will automatically decide between the
fast and the universal slow version of ipc_call_sync.
 
2601 6074 d 23 h jermar /trunk/kernel/generic/src/ipc/ Fix and improve two IPC related comments.  
2557 6118 d 4 h jermar /trunk/kernel/generic/src/ipc/ Enable forwarding of IPC_M_AS_AREA_SEND, IPC_M_AS_AREA_RECV, IPC_M_DATA_SEND
calls. In order to prevent the forwarder from cloberring the call data (i.e.
source and destination address, and size) by treating these three methods as
immutable on forward. This feature is experimental, but has huge benefits in
that it can significantly reduce the amount of data sharing (the middle man need
not modify its address space mappings) or the amount of data copying (the middle
man need not receive the data from the sender and then resend them to the next
recipient). As a result, it can reduce N such calls for a communication channel
with N tasks along the way to 1 such call.
 
2556 6118 d 6 h jermar /trunk/kernel/generic/ Rename as_get_size() to as_area_get_size() and add a doxygen comment.
