2218 6234 d 21 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)
 
2141 6245 d 20 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.
 
2117 6296 d 6 h decky /trunk/kernel/generic/src/ddi/ explicit typecast  
2116 6296 d 6 h decky /trunk/kernel/generic/src/ddi/ explicit typecast  
2107 6297 d 23 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.
 
2089 6304 d 7 h decky /trunk/ huge type system cleanup
remove cyclical type dependencies across multiple header files
many minor coding style fixes
 
2071 6315 d 0 h jermar /trunk/ (c) versus (C)  
2015 6354 d 0 h jermar /trunk/ Rework support for virtually indexed cache.
Instead of repeatedly flushing the data cache, which was a huge overkill, refuse to create an illegal address alias
in the kernel (again) and allocate appropriate page color in userspace instead. Extend the detection also to
SYS_PHYSMEM_MAP syscall.

Add support for tracking physical memory areas mappable by SYS_PHYSMEM_MAP.

Lots of coding style changes.
 
2012 6356 d 22 h jermar /trunk/ Eliminate confusion between SYS_MAP_PHYSMEM and sys_physmem_map.
The syscall is to be called SYS_PHYSMEM_MAP from now on and the functions that participate in its implementation are
called *physmem_map().
 
1933 6406 d 23 h jermar /trunk/kernel/generic/ Implement efficient IPC notification cleanup.  
1926 6407 d 10 h decky /trunk/kernel/ cleanup for new IRQ subsystem  
1923 6407 d 23 h jermar /trunk/ Replace the old IRQ dispatcher and IPC notifier with new implementation.
Note that all architectures except for sparc64 are now broken
and don't even compile.
 
1922 6409 d 7 h jermar /trunk/kernel/ More IRQ stuff.
Modify the IRQ hash table functions to support lookup based on inr and devno.
Add method member to irq_t.
 
1921 6410 d 1 h jermar /trunk/kernel/ Changes in ns16550 and z8530 drivers.
Add some stuff for IRQ notifications to irq_t.
 
1920 6410 d 8 h jermar /trunk/kernel/ Move the new IRQ redirector to ddi/.
Add function for assigning unique device numbers.
Change sparc64/drivers/kbd.c to assign devno to keyboard.
 
1888 6440 d 3 h jermar /trunk/ C99 compliant header guards (hopefully) everywhere in the kernel.
Formatting and indentation changes.
Small improvements in sparc64.
 
1839 6480 d 4 h decky /trunk/kernel/generic/ finish security context isolation  
1787 6505 d 2 h decky / move kernel/trunk, uspace/trunk and boot/trunk to trunk/kernel, trunk/uspace and trunk/boot  
1780 6512 d 3 h jermar /kernel/trunk/ Replace old __u?? types with respective C99 variants (e.g. uint32_t, int64_t, uintptr_t etc.).  
1708 6530 d 9 h jermar /kernel/trunk/ Fix some broken doxygen comments.  
1705 6532 d 9 h cejka /kernel/trunk/ Added file with modules definitions and descriptions.
We are able to change modules order and their description in one place.
 
1702 6533 d 6 h cejka /kernel/trunk/ Kernel doxygen comments updated.  
1589 6541 d 1 h jermar /kernel/trunk/generic/src/ Improve comments regarding liveliness of threads and tasks.  
1588 6541 d 2 h jermar /kernel/trunk/generic/src/ In task_kill(), remove the task from the tasks_btree before proceeding.
Thus, when the kernel finds the task in the tasks_btree and locks it before
releasing tasks_lock, it is guaranteed that the task will not be destroyed
until the lock is held. If the kernel needs to unlock the task, do some operation
and lock it again, it should increase its refcount before doing so. In that case,
when releasing the lock, it must decrement the refcount and if it reaches
zero, it must call task_destroy().
 
1494 6544 d 20 h palkovsky /kernel/trunk/generic/ Removes unnecessary parameter for map_physmem syscall.  
1429 6549 d 10 h jermar /kernel/trunk/generic/ Make ddi_physmem_map() accept address space area flags instead of writable switch.
Thus even these types of address space areas can turn caching on, if it is desired.
 
1425 6550 d 0 h jermar /kernel/trunk/generic/ Make address space backend data a union.  
1424 6550 d 2 h jermar /kernel/trunk/ Move the sharing functionality to address space area backends.
Add backend for continuous regions of physical memory.
Sharing for these areas works automagically now.
 
1409 6553 d 21 h jermar /kernel/trunk/generic/ Some shared memory stuff (not completed).
Support for address space area backends.
Add ELF and anonymous memory backends.
 
1297 6570 d 5 h jermar /kernel/trunk/ Add SYS_CAP_GRANT and SYS_CAP_REVOKE syscalls.
Move SYS_PREEMPT_CONTROL to ddi.c.
Add some comments and fix some small issues.
 
1288 6572 d 8 h jermar /kernel/trunk/ Complete implementation of copy_from_uspace() and copy_to_uspace()
for amd64 and ia32. Other architectures still compile and run,
but need to implement their own assembly-only memcpy(), memcpy_from_uspace(),
memcpy_to_uspace() and their failover parts. For these architectures
only dummy implementations are provided.
 
1278 6575 d 2 h palkovsky /kernel/trunk/ Changed interrupt_control to preemption_control.  
1248 6580 d 3 h jermar /kernel/trunk/ Add some @file doxygen comments and improve already existing comments.  
1239 6581 d 2 h jermar /kernel/trunk/generic/ Prevent race in as_area_send() by allowing the address space area to be
created with AS_AREA_ATTR_PARTIAL attribute.
 
1227 6584 d 4 h jermar /kernel/trunk/ Reorganize syscall names to better correspond to kernel architecture.
Add dummy placeholders for SYS_AS_AREA_SHARE_APPROVE and
SYS_AS_AREA_SHARE_PERFORM syscalls.
 
1212 6585 d 2 h palkovsky /kernel/trunk/ Added uspace call to enable/disable interrupts.  
1191 6593 d 11 h jermar /kernel/trunk/ Kernel support for SYS_ENABLE_IOSPACE.
amd64 and ia32 provide dummy implementation thereof.
 
1178 6595 d 3 h jermar /kernel/trunk/ Add task_find_by_id().
Add kernel support for SYS_MAP_PHYSMEM.
