2222 6284 d 1 h decky /trunk/kernel/ map kernel pages explicitly as writable (this solves compatibility issues with Intel Core 2)
make VESA framebuffer initialization more robust
 
2221 6284 d 3 h decky /trunk/kernel/arch/ia32/src/boot/ fix typo in comment  
2220 6284 d 3 h decky /trunk/kernel/arch/ia32/src/boot/ check for PSE support, add error message on PSE not present
make initial mapping explicitly writeable, turn PAE explicitly off (just in case)
 
2219 6284 d 4 h decky /trunk/kernel/arch/amd64/src/boot/ add error message on no long mode support  
2218 6284 d 22 h decky /trunk/kernel/ support the possibility to send EOI or Interrupt Acknowledgement
prior to processing the interrupt
(this is essential on some architectures to prevent preemption deadlock)
 
2217 6284 d 23 h jermar /trunk/kernel/arch/ia32/src/smp/ On SMP amd64 and ia32 systems, release the irq->lock
before calling clock() from the interrupt handler.
This is important for maintaining kernel preemption
since no preemption can take place while a spinlock
is held.
 
2216 6285 d 2 h decky /trunk/ make thread ID 64 bit (task ID is 64 bit already)
cleanup thread syscalls
 
2211 6285 d 4 h decky /trunk/kernel/generic/src/synch/ reflect the renaming of printflock to printf_lock  
2210 6285 d 4 h decky /trunk/ use more useful values  
2209 6285 d 4 h decky /trunk/uspace/ use futex instead of pthread serialization
synchronize only output to stdout
cleanup
 
2208 6285 d 4 h decky /trunk/kernel/generic/ use spinlock only on console output, not other print functions
cleanup
 
2193 6286 d 7 h decky /trunk/uspace/tester/ reimplement all tests from original ipcc
(cleanup needed)
 
2192 6286 d 7 h decky /trunk/uspace/libc/arch/sparc64/include/ fix uspace atomic_add according kernel code  
2188 6286 d 8 h decky /trunk/ new user space testing framework (unfinished)  
2187 6286 d 9 h decky /trunk/kernel/generic/ add syscall for getting current thread ID  
2186 6286 d 10 h decky /trunk/uspace/tester/ rename ipcc.c to tester.c  
2185 6286 d 10 h decky /trunk/ rename ipcc to tester  
2184 6286 d 12 h decky /trunk/kernel/generic/src/lib/ add zetta (sextillion) prefix
make constants explicitly unsigned
 
2183 6287 d 6 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 6292 d 0 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.
