2451 6191 d 6 h jermar /trunk/kernel/generic/ JoinMe -> Lingering  
2446 6194 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.		  
2440 6195 d 4 h jermar /trunk/kernel/generic/ Fix the problem with sys_thread_create() by splitting the create and attach functionality of
thread_create(). Now it is possible to specify a flag that will cause thread_create() to only allocate and
initialize the thread structure. A call to thread_attach() will make the thread visible to the system.
This arrangement makes it easier to undo creation of a thread in case of a failure in sys_thread_create().		  
2268 6238 d 6 h jermar /trunk/kernel/generic/ Document and assert proper usage of THREAD_FLAG_WIRED.
Original patch by Jan Hudecek.		  
2227 6247 d 19 h decky /trunk/kernel/ start shutdown infrastructure  
2216 6249 d 5 h decky /trunk/ make thread ID 64 bit (task ID is 64 bit already)
cleanup thread syscalls		  
2187 6250 d 13 h decky /trunk/kernel/generic/ add syscall for getting current thread ID  
2109 6311 d 14 h jermar /trunk/kernel/generic/ Revert thread_interrupt_sleep() to waitq_interrupt_sleep().
I'd prefer that this, IMO, waitq related stuff stays together.		  
2106 6312 d 12 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.		  
2105 6316 d 13 h decky /trunk/kernel/ move ipc structures to ipc.h  
2103 6317 d 6 h decky /trunk/kernel/generic/include/ move timeout_t to timeout.h
move other helper types to thread.h		  
2096 6317 d 8 h decky /trunk/kernel/generic/include/ move thread_t to thread.h  
2093 6317 d 8 h decky /trunk/kernel/ spinlock extern declaration macro  
2092 6317 d 9 h decky /trunk/kernel/generic/include/ move cpu_t to cpu.h  
2090 6318 d 8 h decky /trunk/kernel/generic/include/proc/ cleanup garbage  
2089 6318 d 12 h decky /trunk/ huge type system cleanup
remove cyclical type dependencies across multiple header files
many minor coding style fixes		  
2081 6324 d 13 h decky /trunk/kernel/generic/include/ another typedefs to anonymous structs  
2080 6324 d 13 h decky /trunk/kernel/generic/include/ another typedef to anonymous enum  
2071 6329 d 5 h jermar /trunk/ (c) versus (C)  
2042 6363 d 9 h decky /trunk/kernel/ introduce uncounted threads, whose accounting doesn't affect accumulated task accounting
run tests in kconsole thread again
