2222 6420 d 0 h decky /trunk/kernel/ map kernel pages explicitly as writable (this solves compatibility issues with Intel Core 2)
make VESA framebuffer initialization more robust
 
2170 6427 d 22 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.
 
2141 6431 d 21 h jermar /trunk/ The Ultimate Solution To Illegal Virtual Aliases.
It is better to avoid them completely than to fight them.
Switch the sparc64 port to 16K pages. The TLBs and TSBs
continue to operate with 8K pages only. Page tables and
other generic parts operate with 16K pages.

Because the MMU doesn't support 16K directly, each 16K
page is emulated by a pair of 8K pages. With 16K pages,
illegal aliases cannot be created in 16K D-cache.
 
2125 6476 d 1 h decky /trunk/ experimental support for Objective C
(disabled by default)
 
2106 6484 d 7 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.
 
2102 6489 d 1 h decky /trunk/kernel/genarch/src/fb/ signed/unsigned comparison, explicit typecast  
2101 6489 d 1 h decky /trunk/kernel/ fix signed/unsigned comparison and integer overflow  
2100 6489 d 2 h decky /trunk/kernel/ signed/unsigned comparison, explicit typecast  
2093 6489 d 3 h decky /trunk/kernel/ spinlock extern declaration macro  
2089 6490 d 7 h decky /trunk/ huge type system cleanup
remove cyclical type dependencies across multiple header files
many minor coding style fixes
 
2086 6492 d 4 h jermar /trunk/kernel/genarch/src/fb/ Don't write to frame buffer memory, which is past the resolution.
This fixes Ticket #17

Coding style a formatting changes in the frame buffer code.
 
2085 6496 d 6 h decky /trunk/kernel/ typedef elimination  
2071 6501 d 0 h jermar /trunk/ (c) versus (C)  
2054 6528 d 23 h jermar /trunk/kernel/ Fix important comment in kernel/arch/sparc64/src/proc/scheduler.c.

Improve framebuffer code.

Formatting and indentation fixes.
 
2015 6540 d 0 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.
 
2007 6547 d 23 h jermar /trunk/kernel/ Introduce page colors. So far, only sparc64 uses correct page color bits. Other architectures have a dummy define
specifying zero bits for a page color.

There is a new check of page color in as_area_share(). Because of lack of support for this in the userspace, the
check has been #ifef'ed out.
 
1994 6557 d 7 h decky /trunk/ Add BGR 0888 visual for Ultra 60  
1993 6557 d 8 h decky /trunk/ make framebuffer code more generic  
1991 6558 d 1 h jermar /trunk/kernel/genarch/src/fb/ The prefered switch statement indentation is the one replaced by the previous commit :-)  
1990 6558 d 4 h decky /trunk/kernel/genarch/src/fb/ framebuffer cleanup
