2984 5848 d 8 h svoboda /branches/dynload/ Add as_area_change_flags() syscall and libc wrapper. Implementation limited to non-shared areas of anonymous memory.  
2927 5855 d 11 h decky /branches/dynload/ added dynload branch  
2745 5933 d 10 h decky /trunk/ code cleanup (mostly signed/unsigned)
allow extra compiler warnings
 
2647 6006 d 3 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 6084 d 11 h jermar /trunk/kernel/generic/ Rename as_get_size() to as_area_get_size() and add a doxygen comment.  
2183 6261 d 5 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 6265 d 23 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 6269 d 22 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.
 
2133 6271 d 2 h jermar /trunk/kernel/generic/src/mm/ Coding style and indentation fixes.  
2126 6313 d 23 h decky /trunk/kernel/ small cleanup, more work coming  
2125 6314 d 1 h decky /trunk/ experimental support for Objective C
(disabled by default)
 
2106 6322 d 8 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.
 
2094 6327 d 4 h decky /trunk/kernel/generic/ avoid conflict with potential keyword  
2089 6328 d 8 h decky /trunk/ huge type system cleanup
remove cyclical type dependencies across multiple header files
many minor coding style fixes
 
2087 6329 d 4 h jermar /trunk/kernel/ Indentaion and formatting changes even Martin will like :-)  
2071 6339 d 1 h jermar /trunk/ (c) versus (C)  
2069 6340 d 23 h jermar /trunk/ Improve formatting.  
2015 6378 d 1 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.
 
2009 6383 d 0 h jermar /trunk/kernel/ Initial support for handling illegal virtual aliases on sparc64.  
2007 6385 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.
