3183 5820 d 17 h jermar /trunk/kernel/generic/src/mm/ Avoid easy deadlock while printing slab cache statistics.  
3180 5821 d 22 h jermar /trunk/kernel/generic/src/mm/ cstyle for slab.c  
3143 5828 d 15 h svoboda /trunk/kernel/ Implement smc_coherence[_block]() for ppc32  
3142 5828 d 16 h svoboda /trunk/kernel/generic/src/mm/ Fix build when smc_coherence_block() is defined as an empty macro  
3141 5828 d 19 h jermar /trunk/kernel/generic/src/mm/ Maintain cache coherence when the ELF backend duplicates a frame from an
executable segment.
 
3130 5831 d 0 h jermar /trunk/kernel/generic/src/mm/ Add a comment explaining the reason for a memory barrier after page table update in detail.  
3128 5831 d 13 h jermar /trunk/kernel/generic/src/mm/ Issue a memory barrier after modifying a page table mapping in order to
prevent memory prefetching.
 
3104 5837 d 0 h svoboda /trunk/kernel/ Declare arguments for memstr.h operations as pointers instead of uintptr_t.  
3057 5839 d 17 h decky /trunk/kernel/generic/src/mm/ proper printf formatting  
3007 5847 d 13 h jermar /trunk/ Improve linking and loading of boot ELF images.

2745 5936 d 20 h decky /trunk/ code cleanup (mostly signed/unsigned)
allow extra compiler warnings
 
2725 5957 d 17 h decky /trunk/kernel/ remove config.memory_size, get_memory_size() and memory_init.{c|d}
the amount of available memory can be calculated from the sizes of the zones
add FRAMES2SIZE, SIZE2KB and SIZE2MB functions/macros (code readability)
 
2712 5962 d 18 h decky /trunk/kernel/ prettyprint output  
2647 6009 d 13 h jermar /trunk/kernel/generic/src/mm/ Fix a bug in anonymous address space area sharing. Call the backend's share
function only if the source area is not already shared. Otherwise increment the
sh_info refcount. Without this fix, the kernel will try to recreate the pagemap
if three and more address space areas attempt to share the same data.
 
2556 6087 d 21 h jermar /trunk/kernel/generic/ Rename as_get_size() to as_area_get_size() and add a doxygen comment.  
2467 6195 d 14 h jermar /trunk/ Improve comments for arch-specific implementations of hierarchical
4-level page tables. Improve formatting.
 
2222 6261 d 11 h decky /trunk/kernel/ map kernel pages explicitly as writable (this solves compatibility issues with Intel Core 2)
make VESA framebuffer initialization more robust
 
2183 6264 d 16 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 6269 d 9 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 6273 d 8 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.
