2601 6037 d 20 h jermar /trunk/kernel/generic/src/ipc/ Fix and improve two IPC related comments.  
2557 6081 d 1 h jermar /trunk/kernel/generic/src/ipc/ Enable forwarding of IPC_M_AS_AREA_SEND, IPC_M_AS_AREA_RECV, IPC_M_DATA_SEND
calls. In order to prevent the forwarder from cloberring the call data (i.e.
source and destination address, and size) by treating these three methods as
immutable on forward. This feature is experimental, but has huge benefits in
that it can significantly reduce the amount of data sharing (the middle man need
not modify its address space mappings) or the amount of data copying (the middle
man need not receive the data from the sender and then resend them to the next
recipient). As a result, it can reduce N such calls for a communication channel
with N tasks along the way to 1 such call.		  
2556 6081 d 3 h jermar /trunk/kernel/generic/ Rename as_get_size() to as_area_get_size() and add a doxygen comment.  
2494 6160 d 17 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.		  
2471 6184 d 18 h jermar /trunk/ Greatly improve comments in the IPC layer.
Now I think I finally start to understand our IPC internals :-)		  
2359 6215 d 3 h jermar /trunk/ Improve comments for the IPC subsystem.
Fix formatting and indentation.		  
2098 6323 d 19 h decky /trunk/kernel/generic/ avoid conflict with potential keyword  
2071 6335 d 17 h jermar /trunk/ (c) versus (C)  
1923 6428 d 17 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.		  
1875 6467 d 18 h jermar /trunk/ sparc64 work.
- Changes to enable userspace keyboard drivers.
- Fix z8530 initialization (i.e. clear any pending Tx interrupts).
- Experimental support for framebuffers with inverted colors.		  
1787 6525 d 19 h decky / move kernel/trunk, uspace/trunk and boot/trunk to trunk/kernel, trunk/uspace and trunk/boot  
1780 6532 d 20 h jermar /kernel/trunk/ Replace old __u?? types with respective C99 variants (e.g. uint32_t, int64_t, uintptr_t etc.).  
1757 6547 d 1 h jermar /kernel/trunk/ Cleanup of comments.  
1702 6553 d 23 h cejka /kernel/trunk/ Kernel doxygen comments updated.  
1693 6555 d 20 h palkovsky /kernel/trunk/generic/ Modified ipc/irq to be able to pass up to 3 arguments to userspace.  
1669 6558 d 20 h palkovsky /kernel/trunk/generic/src/ipc/ Small consitency ipc update.  
1595 6561 d 6 h palkovsky /kernel/trunk/ Added kernel circular buffer klog.
Added automatic killing of tasks raising inappropriate exceptions.
TODO: Fix vsnprintf return value(and behaviour according to specs) and remove workaround in klog.		  
1591 6561 d 15 h palkovsky /kernel/trunk/generic/ Small updates to ipc.  
1573 6562 d 20 h palkovsky /kernel/trunk/generic/ Renamed some things in IPC to be consistent.
Added ipc reporting to kconsole.		  
1568 6562 d 22 h palkovsky /kernel/trunk/generic/ Slightly remodelled ipc hangups to facilitate correct cleanup.
Doc updates for frame allocator.
