2193 6423 d 3 h decky /trunk/uspace/tester/ reimplement all tests from original ipcc
(cleanup needed)
 
2192 6423 d 3 h decky /trunk/uspace/libc/arch/sparc64/include/ fix uspace atomic_add according kernel code  
2188 6423 d 4 h decky /trunk/ new user space testing framework (unfinished)  
2187 6423 d 5 h decky /trunk/kernel/generic/ add syscall for getting current thread ID  
2186 6423 d 5 h decky /trunk/uspace/tester/ rename ipcc.c to tester.c  
2185 6423 d 5 h decky /trunk/ rename ipcc to tester  
2184 6423 d 7 h decky /trunk/kernel/generic/src/lib/ add zetta (sextillion) prefix
make constants explicitly unsigned
 
2183 6424 d 2 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 6428 d 19 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.
 
2161 6430 d 22 h jermar /trunk/kernel/arch/sparc64/src/mm/ Fix TSB bug during TSB refill.
When one wants to enable a TSB entry, he or she should set the
entry invalid bit to false, as opposed to setting it to true.
 
2160 6430 d 23 h decky /trunk/boot/arch/ remove duplicate dependency  
2144 6431 d 20 h jermar /trunk/kernel/arch/sparc64/src/mm/ Fix TSB size.  
2143 6432 d 2 h jermar /trunk/kernel/arch/sparc64/include/ Remove unneeded enum member.  
2142 6432 d 3 h jermar /trunk/kernel/generic/include/mm/ Remove out of date comment.  
2141 6432 d 18 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.
 
2139 6432 d 19 h decky /trunk/contrib/toolchain/ move to GCC 4.1.2, make scripts really host platform independent
remove orphaned libobjc
 
2138 6432 d 22 h decky /trunk/contrib/toolchain/ revert previous change (libobjc is actually HOST platform dependent)  
2134 6433 d 22 h jermar /trunk/kernel/ Reworked handling of illegal virtual aliases caused by frame reuse.
We moved the incomplete handling from backend's frame method to
backend's page_fault method. The page_fault method is the one that
can create an illegal alias if it writes the userspace frame using
kernel address with a different page color than the page to which is
this frame mapped in userspace. When we detect this, we do D-cache
shootdown on all processors (!!!).

If we add code that accesses userspace memory from kernel address
space, we will have to check for illegal virtual aliases at all such
places.

I tested this on a 4-way simulated E6500 and a real-world Ultra 5,
which has unfortunatelly only one processor.

This solves ticket #26.
 
2133 6433 d 23 h jermar /trunk/kernel/generic/src/mm/ Coding style and indentation fixes.  
2132 6435 d 5 h jermar /trunk/kernel/generic/src/mm/ Fix coding style in the address space area backends.
