3395 5750 d 23 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 5751 d 21 h jermar /trunk/kernel/generic/src/ipc/ cstyle for ipc.c  
3370 5763 d 21 h jermar /trunk/kernel/generic/ Synchronous IPC must be interruptible.  
3363 5767 d 0 h jermar /trunk/kernel/generic/src/ipc/ Demasquerade the caller phone during ipc_answer_n() rather than in
ipc_wait_for_call().
 
3362 5767 d 0 h jermar /trunk/kernel/generic/ Fix processing of answers to forwarded masqueraded calls.  
3186 5829 d 0 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 5830 d 3 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 5846 d 11 h svoboda /trunk/kernel/ Declare arguments for memstr.h operations as pointers instead of uintptr_t.  
3090 5849 d 3 h decky /trunk/kernel/generic/src/ipc/ revert coding style change  
3054 5849 d 4 h decky /trunk/kernel/generic/src/ipc/ proper printf formatting  
3020 5854 d 22 h jermar /trunk/kernel/generic/ Turn phone->lock into mutex.  
2802 5908 d 7 h jermar /trunk/kernel/generic/ Fix initialization of answerbox->task in ipc_answerbox_init.
Contributed by Jiri Svoboda.
 
2662 6011 d 21 h jermar /trunk/ Add support for IPC_M_DATA_READ calls.  
2637 6030 d 23 h cejka /trunk/ Extended IPC_M_CONNECT_TO_ME to use 3 user defined parameters.
Phone identifier is passed in ARG5.
 
2623 6041 d 4 h jermar /trunk/kernel/generic/ Introduce the IPC_FF_ROUTE_FROM_ME forwarding flag.  
2622 6041 d 4 h jermar /trunk/ Add mode argument to IPC forward.
This argument can be used to modify the way forward behaves.
 
2601 6054 d 1 h jermar /trunk/kernel/generic/src/ipc/ Fix and improve two IPC related comments.  
2494 6176 d 22 h jermar /trunk/kernel/generic/ Implement a new mechanism for copying data between two address spaces based on
IPC. New system method IPC_M_DATA_SEND is introduced. The implementation is
generic and does not make use of any possible architecture optimizations such as
direct copy from one address space to another.
 
2472 6200 d 23 h jermar /trunk/kernel/generic/src/ipc/ Some left-over stuff from the last commit (IPC cleanup and improved
comments.)
 
2471 6200 d 23 h jermar /trunk/ Greatly improve comments in the IPC layer.
Now I think I finally start to understand our IPC internals :-)
 
2310 6242 d 0 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.
 
2216 6271 d 22 h decky /trunk/ make thread ID 64 bit (task ID is 64 bit already)
cleanup thread syscalls
 
2183 6274 d 2 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.
 
2071 6351 d 22 h jermar /trunk/ (c) versus (C)  
1933 6443 d 21 h jermar /trunk/kernel/generic/ Implement efficient IPC notification cleanup.  
1923 6444 d 22 h jermar /trunk/ Replace the old IRQ dispatcher and IPC notifier with new implementation.
Note that all architectures except for sparc64 are now broken
and don't even compile.
 
1787 6542 d 0 h decky / move kernel/trunk, uspace/trunk and boot/trunk to trunk/kernel, trunk/uspace and trunk/boot  
1780 6549 d 1 h jermar /kernel/trunk/ Replace old __u?? types with respective C99 variants (e.g. uint32_t, int64_t, uintptr_t etc.).  
1757 6563 d 6 h jermar /kernel/trunk/ Cleanup of comments.  
1735 6565 d 8 h decky /kernel/trunk/ make kernel prints case consistent  
1708 6567 d 7 h jermar /kernel/trunk/ Fix some broken doxygen comments.

We are able to change modules order and their description in one place.
 
1702 6570 d 4 h cejka /kernel/trunk/ Kernel doxygen comments updated.  
1595 6577 d 11 h palkovsky /kernel/trunk/ Added kernel circular buffer klog.
Added automatic killing of tasks raising inappropriate exceptions.

Doc updates for frame allocator.
 
1502 6581 d 6 h jermar /kernel/trunk/ Replace nonblocking argument of waitq_sleep_timeout with flags that specify mode of operation.
Now a flag can be used to specify interruptible sleep.
Modify waitq_interrupt_sleep() to only interrupt threads that used this flag.
