2446 6187 d 4 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.
 
2436 6189 d 0 h jermar /trunk/ Fix two memory leaks.

In kernel, kernel_uarg structure needs to be deallocated when a thread
with userspace context is destroyed.

In userspace, the return value of the SYS_THREAD_CREATE must be checked
for error conditions and in case of error, uarg and stack must be freed
up.
 
2227 6240 d 14 h decky /trunk/kernel/ start shutdown infrastructure  
2216 6242 d 0 h decky /trunk/ make thread ID 64 bit (task ID is 64 bit already)
cleanup thread syscalls
 
2183 6244 d 4 h jermar /trunk/kernel/generic/ Continue to de-oversynchronize the kernel.
- replace as->refcount with an atomic counter; accesses to this
reference counter are not to be done when the as->lock mutex is held;
this gets us rid of mutex_lock_active();

Remove the possibility of a deadlock between TLB shootdown and asidlock.
- get rid of mutex_lock_active() on as->lock
- when locking the asidlock spinlock, always do it conditionally and with
preemption disabled; in the unsuccessful case, enable interrupts and try again
- there should be no deadlock between TLB shootdown and the as->lock mutexes
- PLEASE REVIEW !!!

Add DEADLOCK_PROBE's to places where we have spinlock_trylock() loops.
 
2118 6303 d 5 h decky /trunk/kernel/generic/src/ explicit typecast, fix signed/unsigned comparison  
2109 6304 d 8 h jermar /trunk/kernel/generic/ Revert thread_interrupt_sleep() to waitq_interrupt_sleep().
I'd prefer that this, IMO, waitq related stuff stays together.
 
2089 6311 d 7 h decky /trunk/ huge type system cleanup
remove cyclical type dependencies across multiple header files
many minor coding style fixes
 
2087 6312 d 3 h jermar /trunk/kernel/ Indentaion and formatting changes even Martin will like :-)  
2071 6321 d 23 h jermar /trunk/ (c) versus (C)  
2050 6351 d 10 h decky /trunk/kernel/ benchmarking with statistics (initial)  
2048 6354 d 1 h jermar /trunk/ Formatting and indentation changes.  
2042 6356 d 3 h decky /trunk/kernel/ introduce uncounted threads, whose accounting doesn't affect accumulated task accounting
run tests in kconsole thread again
 
2041 6356 d 4 h decky /trunk/kernel/generic/src/proc/ revert 2040  
2040 6356 d 6 h decky /trunk/kernel/generic/src/proc/ add forgotten btree_remove()  
2039 6356 d 7 h decky /trunk/kernel/generic/ accumulate task accounting, run tests as separate kernel task  
2035 6357 d 5 h decky /trunk/kernel/generic/src/ more fancy kconsole output  
2000 6372 d 9 h decky /trunk/kernel/ move files to more proper locations  
1880 6450 d 23 h jermar /trunk/ Small improvements here and there.  
1864 6457 d 20 h jermar /trunk/ sparc64 update.
- Prototype userspace layer implementation that
at least relates to sparc64 and compiles cleanly.
- Fixes for kernel's preemptible_handler and code
related to running userspace.
- Enable userspace. Several dozen instructions
are now run in userspace! We are pretty near
the userspace milestone for sparc64.
