2451 6188 d 13 h jermar /trunk/kernel/generic/ JoinMe -> Lingering  
2446 6191 d 17 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 6192 d 11 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 6235 d 13 h jermar /trunk/kernel/generic/ Document and assert proper usage of THREAD_FLAG_WIRED.
Original patch by Jan Hudecek.		  
2216 6246 d 13 h decky /trunk/ make thread ID 64 bit (task ID is 64 bit already)
cleanup thread syscalls		  
2187 6247 d 20 h decky /trunk/kernel/generic/ add syscall for getting current thread ID  
2109 6308 d 21 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 6309 d 19 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.		  
2103 6314 d 13 h decky /trunk/kernel/generic/include/ move timeout_t to timeout.h
move other helper types to thread.h		  
2096 6314 d 15 h decky /trunk/kernel/generic/include/ move thread_t to thread.h  
2093 6314 d 15 h decky /trunk/kernel/ spinlock extern declaration macro  
2089 6315 d 19 h decky /trunk/ huge type system cleanup
remove cyclical type dependencies across multiple header files
many minor coding style fixes		  
2080 6321 d 20 h decky /trunk/kernel/generic/include/ another typedef to anonymous enum  
2071 6326 d 12 h jermar /trunk/ (c) versus (C)  
2042 6360 d 16 h decky /trunk/kernel/ introduce uncounted threads, whose accounting doesn't affect accumulated task accounting
run tests in kconsole thread again		  
2031 6361 d 20 h decky /trunk/kernel/generic/include/proc/ fix comment  
2030 6361 d 20 h decky /trunk/kernel/ thread CPU cycles accounting  
1888 6451 d 15 h jermar /trunk/ C99 compliant header guards (hopefully) everywhere in the kernel.
Formatting and indentation changes.
Small improvements in sparc64.		  
1854 6467 d 22 h jermar /trunk/kernel/ Define architecture-specific thread sub-constructors and sub-destructors on all architectures.
Define the THREAD_FLAG_USPACE which means that the thread runs in user space.
The forementioned changes allow for allocating of user window buffer on sparc64
threads that execute in userspace.

A lot of formatting and indentation fixes.		  
1839 6491 d 17 h decky /trunk/kernel/generic/ finish security context isolation
