2605 6039 d 12 h jermar /trunk/ Start support for six syscall arguments.
This breaks all architectures.
 
2573 6063 d 9 h jermar /trunk/kernel/generic/include/lib/ Add SHF_TLS ELF section header flag.
This will be needed for detecting alignment of TLS sections of userspace tasks
loaded at runtime.
 
2572 6081 d 23 h jermar /trunk/kernel/ Remove duplicit implementation of strlen() in kernel, rename is_digit(),
is_white() and co. to their standard names (e.g. isdigit(), isspace()) and
remove duplicit implementation of isdigit(). Fix cstyle in kernel printf()
implementation.
 
2556 6087 d 17 h jermar /trunk/kernel/generic/ Rename as_get_size() to as_area_get_size() and add a doxygen comment.  
2550 6088 d 11 h cejka /trunk/ Fixed naming convention in IPC.  
2527 6100 d 17 h jermar /trunk/ VFS work.

Added mandatory VFS_LOOKUP

Handling of VFS_REGISTER request should be now more or less complete.
Added code that inserts the new fs_info structure into the list of registered
filesystems and creates a callback connection to the client FS.
 
2523 6101 d 19 h jermar /trunk/ VFS work.

Now, each VFS connection fibril will accept requests in a loop. The idea is that
each connection will be potentially reused for multiple requests before it is
closed by the server.

More VFS_REGISTER bits. Make use of the IPC_M_DATA_SEND wrappers introduced in
the previous commit.

Add enum members for more VFS operations.
 
2504 6149 d 9 h jermar /trunk/kernel/generic/ Give the AVL tree walkers the possibility to take an argument.
Each walker is now supposed to return a bool value to support walk termination.

Switch over from the tasks_btree B+tree to tasks_tree AVL tree.
This makes the fix for ticket #48 complete.
 
2502 6149 d 14 h jermar /trunk/kernel/generic/ Replace the threads_btree B+tree with an AVL tree. The new variable is called
threads_tree. For printing list of threads, use the new AVL tree walker
mechanism.

This solves half of ticket #48.
 
2501 6149 d 14 h jermar /trunk/kernel/generic/ Add explicit type for an AVL tree key.
Add function to walk an AVL tree using a supplied walker.
 
2499 6149 d 16 h jermar /trunk/kernel/ Import the AVL tree implementation from the RCU branch.  
2494 6167 d 7 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.
 
2493 6167 d 11 h jermar /trunk/kernel/generic/include/ipc/ Collapse IPC method numbers.  
2476 6188 d 7 h jermar /trunk/ Cleanup.  
2471 6191 d 8 h jermar /trunk/ Greatly improve comments in the IPC layer.
Now I think I finally start to understand our IPC internals :-)
 
2465 6200 d 13 h jermar /trunk/ Merge arm32 into trunk.  
2462 6202 d 8 h jermar /trunk/kernel/ Replace gcc-specific __FUNCTION__ with C99 __func__.
suncc's xregs=no%float can be used only on sparc64.
 
2451 6204 d 8 h jermar /trunk/kernel/generic/ JoinMe -> Lingering  
2446 6207 d 12 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 6207 d 14 h decky /trunk/ initial merge of branches/fs
(not finished, huge cleanup is needed)
