2454 6189 d 18 h jermar /trunk/kernel/ A bit of infrastructure for building with different compilers.
CFLAGS split into GCC_CFLAGS and SUNCC_CFLAGS.
As of now, there are no separate ICC_CFLAGS, but can be easily added.
 
2453 6190 d 0 h jermar /trunk/kernel/ More suncc fixes.
- remove more empty declarations
- add options to turn errors on empty structs into warnings and options to
silence these warnings
 
2452 6190 d 2 h jermar /trunk/kernel/ More suncc fixes.
- Removed extra semicolons after function declaration.
- Sun Studio recognizes only C99 __func__ and no gcc-specific __FUNCTION__.
In this case, a simple -D option can fix the problem.
 
2444 6194 d 16 h jermar /trunk/kernel/ First fixes for suncc support.
It is going to be a long way...
 
2441 6194 d 18 h decky /trunk/kernel/ fix ICC compilation  
2439 6194 d 18 h decky /trunk/kernel/arch/ia32/src/ fix ICC compilation  
2438 6194 d 19 h decky /trunk/ update for new compiler configuration scheme  
2317 6216 d 17 h decky /trunk/kernel/arch/ia32/include/ remove outstanding move  
2316 6216 d 17 h decky /trunk/kernel/arch/ia32/include/ remove forgotten movs  
2314 6216 d 17 h decky /trunk/kernel/arch/ia32/include/ allow to compile with -O0  
2302 6221 d 22 h decky /trunk/ force VGA palette to 3:2:3 palette on 8 bpp modes
(this fixes ticket #33)
 
2272 6236 d 21 h jermar /trunk/kernel/ Indentation and formatting fixes.  
2267 6238 d 20 h jermar /trunk/kernel/arch/sparc64/src/mm/ Fix indentation.  
2266 6238 d 21 h jermar /trunk/kernel/arch/sparc64/src/mm/ Add few assertions to tsb.c and clean it up a little bit.  
2252 6240 d 19 h jermar /trunk/kernel/arch/sparc64/src/mm/ Move one MEMBAR instruction from a delay slot,
which is, due to SF Erratum #51, a potentionally
dangerous place for a MEMBAR to be.
 
2233 6246 d 19 h decky /trunk/kernel/arch/ use the hlt instruction more properly  
2232 6246 d 20 h decky /trunk/kernel/arch/mips32/src/ add support for halt/reboot in MSIM  
2231 6246 d 23 h jermar /trunk/kernel/arch/sparc64/ Fix a nasty bug in the TLB miss handlers on sparc64.
After we no longer lock the kernel stack in the DTLB,
there is a real danger of nested DTLB misses. The nested
miss can very easily clobber the DTLB Tag Access register.
Therefore, the original miss may not read this register, but
it has to receive its value as an argument. The argument
value is saved in the trap table when it is guaranteed that
the nested TLB miss will not occur.
 
2228 6247 d 2 h jermar /trunk/kernel/arch/sparc64/src/ Fix ticket #28.
In switch_to_userspace(), the uarg argument is in %i2, not in %i3.
 
2227 6247 d 10 h decky /trunk/kernel/ start shutdown infrastructure  
2225 6247 d 10 h decky /trunk/kernel/arch/mips32/ the bss and common sections have to be in .data output section to be properly generated in the binary image
(this might break IRIX, but it is already unmaintaned)
 
2222 6247 d 19 h decky /trunk/kernel/ map kernel pages explicitly as writable (this solves compatibility issues with Intel Core 2)
make VESA framebuffer initialization more robust
 
2221 6247 d 21 h decky /trunk/kernel/arch/ia32/src/boot/ fix typo in comment  
2220 6247 d 21 h decky /trunk/kernel/arch/ia32/src/boot/ check for PSE support, add error message on PSE not present
make initial mapping explicitly writeable, turn PAE explicitly off (just in case)
 
2219 6247 d 22 h decky /trunk/kernel/arch/amd64/src/boot/ add error message on no long mode support  
2218 6248 d 16 h decky /trunk/kernel/ support the possibility to send EOI or Interrupt Acknowledgement
prior to processing the interrupt
(this is essential on some architectures to prevent preemption deadlock)
 
2217 6248 d 17 h jermar /trunk/kernel/arch/ia32/src/smp/ On SMP amd64 and ia32 systems, release the irq->lock
before calling clock() from the interrupt handler.
This is important for maintaining kernel preemption
since no preemption can take place while a spinlock
is held.
 
2216 6248 d 20 h decky /trunk/ make thread ID 64 bit (task ID is 64 bit already)
cleanup thread syscalls
 
2170 6255 d 17 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 6257 d 20 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.
 
2144 6258 d 18 h jermar /trunk/kernel/arch/sparc64/src/mm/ Fix TSB size.  
2143 6259 d 0 h jermar /trunk/kernel/arch/sparc64/include/ Remove unneeded enum member.  
2141 6259 d 16 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.
 
2134 6260 d 20 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.
 
2129 6295 d 19 h jermar /trunk/ Fix small problem in sparc64 port.

Bump version to 0.2.0.4 (Sunset).
 
2128 6302 d 21 h jermar /trunk/ Add arm32 architecture. The 32 suffix is used to specify that 16-bit Thumb
instructions are not used. The arm32 code is mostly composed of placeholders
that need to be replaced by real implementation. So far, the arm32 tree
only compiles. If run under GXEmul simulator, an infinit loop at the
kernel entry point will be entered.
 
2125 6303 d 20 h decky /trunk/ experimental support for Objective C
(disabled by default)
 
2110 6310 d 19 h jermar /trunk/kernel/arch/ia64/ Minor cleanup in ia64.  
2107 6311 d 18 h jermar /trunk/ When clock() is called by an external interrupt dispatched by the IRQ dispatcher,
no spinlock can be held or the kernel will not be preemptive. This fixes Ticket #24.

Formating and indentation fixes.
 
2106 6312 d 2 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.
