2557 6077 d 20 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 6077 d 22 h jermar /trunk/kernel/generic/ Rename as_get_size() to as_area_get_size() and add a doxygen comment.  
2550 6078 d 16 h cejka /trunk/ Fixed naming convention in IPC.  
2538 6082 d 22 h vana /trunk/kernel/arch/ia64/include/drivers/ Macro naming correction  
2537 6082 d 22 h vana /trunk/kernel/arch/ia64/include/drivers/ IA64 keyboard lost headerfile  
2527 6090 d 21 h jermar /trunk/ VFS work.

Added mandatory VFS_LOOKUP

Handling of VFS_REGISTER request should be now more or less complete.
Added code that inserts the new fs_info structure into the list of registered
filesystems and creates a callback connection to the client FS.
 
2523 6092 d 0 h jermar /trunk/ VFS work.

Now, each VFS connection fibril will accept requests in a loop. The idea is that
each connection will be potentially reused for multiple requests before it is
closed by the server.

More VFS_REGISTER bits. Make use of the IPC_M_DATA_SEND wrappers introduced in
the previous commit.

Add enum members for more VFS operations.
 
2519 6093 d 20 h vana /trunk/ Pack ski version of HelenOS to image.boot loader  
2517 6096 d 20 h vana /trunk/kernel/arch/ia64/include/ Missing header file  
2516 6097 d 11 h vana /trunk/kernel/ IA64 rest of neaded changes to work with simics keyboard  
2515 6097 d 11 h vana /trunk/kernel/arch/ia64/include/ IA64 legacy I/O  
2514 6097 d 11 h vana /trunk/kernel/arch/ia64/ IA64 Makefile changes for simics  
2513 6097 d 11 h vana /trunk/kernel/arch/ia64/src/ IA64 simics keyboard support  
2512 6097 d 11 h vana /trunk/kernel/arch/ia64/src/ IA64 loader parameter  
2510 6101 d 12 h jermar /trunk/kernel/ Experimental support for the cgsix framebuffer, which is found on old Ultra 1
worksations, and the SBUS bus and devices. Not tested.
 
2505 6134 d 23 h jermar /trunk/kernel/genarch/src/softint/ Minor cleanup of softint.  
2504 6139 d 13 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.
 
2503 6139 d 14 h jermar /trunk/kernel/generic/src/adt/ Get rid of code duplicities in the insert path into an AVL tree.  
2502 6139 d 19 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.
 
2501 6139 d 19 h jermar /trunk/kernel/generic/ Add explicit type for an AVL tree key.
Add function to walk an AVL tree using a supplied walker.
 
2500 6139 d 21 h jermar /trunk/kernel/ Make the kernel compile again after integrating the AVL tree.
Integrate with tests, add the AVL tree implementation author into AUTHORS.
 
2499 6139 d 21 h jermar /trunk/kernel/ Import the AVL tree implementation from the RCU branch.  
2494 6157 d 12 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.
 
2493 6157 d 16 h jermar /trunk/kernel/generic/include/ipc/ Collapse IPC method numbers.  
2489 6164 d 18 h jermar /trunk/ Allow HelenOS to be built by a native gcc on Solaris.  
2487 6166 d 14 h jermar /trunk/kernel/generic/src/proc/ Kernel stack address was printed twice.  
2482 6171 d 8 h jermar /trunk/ Goodbye pseudo threads, welcome fibrils.
The renaming might still be incomplete.
 
2477 6178 d 9 h kebrt /trunk/kernel/arch/arm32/src/ fixes bug causing crash in tester 'thread1' test  
2476 6178 d 12 h jermar /trunk/ Cleanup.  
2472 6181 d 13 h jermar /trunk/kernel/generic/src/ipc/ Some left-over stuff from the last commit (IPC cleanup and improved
comments.)
 
2471 6181 d 13 h jermar /trunk/ Greatly improve comments in the IPC layer.
Now I think I finally start to understand our IPC internals :-)
 
2470 6185 d 11 h jermar /trunk/ Fix a double-free recently introduced in revision r2436.
Add a comment clarifying the life-cycle of the kernel_uarg structure.

Comment out the freeing of userspace thread stack while still running on it.
This should be fixed by implementing userspace version of thread_join().
 
2467 6185 d 15 h jermar /trunk/ Improve comments for arch-specific implementations of hierarchical
4-level page tables. Improve formatting.
 
2465 6190 d 17 h jermar /trunk/ Merge arm32 into trunk.  
2462 6192 d 12 h jermar /trunk/kernel/ Replace gcc-specific __FUNCTION__ with C99 __func__.
suncc's xregs=no%float can be used only on sparc64.
 
2460 6192 d 12 h jermar /trunk/kernel/ Better infrastructure for building with different compilers.
Separate ICC_CFLAGS added, SUNCC_CFLAGS extended.
 
2459 6192 d 16 h jermar /trunk/kernel/arch/ Fix a bug in ia32 and ia32xen Sun Studio builds.
In arch Makefile.inc, SUNCC_CFLAGS can only be appended via the += operator.
 
2458 6192 d 16 h jermar /trunk/kernel/arch/mips32/ Fix mips32 build script.
Replace CFLAGS with GCC_CFLAGS.
 
2457 6192 d 16 h jermar /trunk/kernel/arch/ia32xen/src/smp/ Fix ia32xen so that it can be built.  
2455 6193 d 11 h jermar /trunk/kernel/ Some non-C files (e.g. .S and linker scripts) must be still "compiled" with gcc and GCC_CFLAGS.
