2898 5896 d 7 h svoboda /branches/tracing/ Implement operation UDEBUG_M_STOP that stops a thread. Can be used for stopping program by hitting a key in debugger. Somewhat jittery demo in sctrace. Fix missing lock of THREAD->debug_lock in udebug_stoppable_end()  
2870 5905 d 4 h svoboda /branches/tracing/kernel/generic/ Terminate debugging session on debugger disconnect  
2866 5905 d 15 h svoboda /branches/tracing/kernel/generic/ Verify that thread is waiting in syscall event when reading syscall args  
2848 5924 d 14 h svoboda /branches/tracing/kernel/generic/ Use debug_lock in thread struct for finer locking, to avoid problems with waitq_wakeup  
2839 5925 d 8 h svoboda /branches/tracing/kernel/generic/ Add thread_attach_by_id() and use it to do ipc_connect_kbox() with proper locking  
2827 5929 d 14 h svoboda /branches/tracing/kernel/generic/ Verify that a thread/task is in appropriate state when handling debug calls  
2826 5929 d 16 h svoboda /branches/tracing/kernel/generic/ Move debug_go_call from task struct to thread struct  
2825 5929 d 16 h svoboda /branches/tracing/kernel/generic/ Introduce task debug-states (udebug_task_state_t)  
2817 5930 d 7 h svoboda /branches/tracing/kernel/generic/ Add REGS_READ and REGS_WRITE debug methods to access userspace register state (no effect yet)  
2808 5931 d 6 h svoboda /branches/tracing/ add kernel answerbox+thread to mediate access to task's memory  
2805 5932 d 10 h svoboda /branches/tracing/ add ipc call to retrieve syscall arguments  
2804 5932 d 12 h svoboda /branches/tracing/kernel/generic/ allow for attaching to tasks with sleeping threads  
2801 5932 d 16 h svoboda /branches/tracing/ [tracing] initial debug interface support  
2799 5932 d 17 h svoboda /branches/tracing/ Revert all changes in tracing branch (sync to r2785 of trunk)  
2787 5941 d 9 h decky /branches/tracing/ add dynamic linking, debugging and tracing branch  
2746 5970 d 9 h decky /trunk/kernel/ start merging tasklets (more or less a rewrite)  
2504 6183 d 7 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 6183 d 12 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.
 
2451 6238 d 6 h jermar /trunk/kernel/generic/ JoinMe -> Lingering  
2446 6241 d 10 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.
