2620 6018 d 11 h jermar /trunk/ Be more deterministic when a user accidently uses fast version of IPC
call/answer instead of the full one and passes fewer arguments than required by
the recipient of the call/response.

and the recipient interprets arguments that
were actually not passed by the sender.
 
2619 6019 d 23 h jermar /trunk/ Modify ipc_answer_*() to make use of all six syscall arguments. The recommended
means of answering calls is via the ipc_answer_m() macros (where m denotes the
number of return arguments) that automatically decide between the fast register
version or the slow universal version of ipc_answer().
 
2618 6020 d 11 h jermar /trunk/ Modify asynchronous IPC to make use of all six syscall arguments. The preferred
means of asynchronous communication is now via the set of ipc_call_async_m()
macros, where m is the number of payload arguments passed to the kernel. These
macros will automatically decide between the fast and the universal slow version
of ipc_call_async.
 
2615 6021 d 8 h jermar /trunk/ Modify synchronous IPC to make use of all six syscall arguments. The preferred
means of synchronous communication is now via the set of ipc_call_sync_m_n()
macros, where m is the number of payload arguments passed to the kernel and n is
the number of return values. These macros will automatically decide between the
fast and the universal slow version of ipc_call_sync.
 
2568 6068 d 14 h jermar /trunk/uspace/ Rename fibril_schedule_next_adv() to fibril_switch(). Rename
fibril_schedule_next() to fibril_yield(). Some fibril structures could be
uninitialized, set them to zero in fibril_setup(). For some fibrils, the stack
member can be NULL (e.g. every thread's first/main fibril); don't do free on
these stacks when cleaning up after a dead fibril.
 
2531 6083 d 1 h jermar /trunk/uspace/ VFS work.
Implement VFS_REGISTER part of the protocol in the FAT file system.

IPC work.
Rename ipc_data_send_accept() to ipc_data_receive() and ipc_data_send_answer()
to ipc_data_deliver(). Introduce ipc_data_send().
 
2530 6083 d 15 h jermar /trunk/uspace/lib/libc/generic/ Pseudo thread -> fibril change in several comments.  
2522 6086 d 13 h jermar /trunk/uspace/lib/libc/ Add wrappers facilitating easy use of IPC_M_DATA_SEND calls and answers.  
2490 6159 d 3 h jermar /trunk/uspace/lib/libc/generic/ Improve comments in async.c  
2482 6165 d 20 h jermar /trunk/ Goodbye pseudo threads, welcome fibrils.
The renaming might still be incomplete.
 
2479 6170 d 7 h jermar /trunk/ New, better-structured, directory layout for uspace.  
2471 6176 d 1 h jermar /trunk/ Greatly improve comments in the IPC layer.
Now I think I finally start to understand our IPC internals :-)
 
2359 6206 d 10 h jermar /trunk/ Improve comments for the IPC subsystem.
Fix formatting and indentation.
 
2071 6327 d 0 h jermar /trunk/ (c) versus (C)  
1923 6420 d 0 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.
 
1866 6462 d 0 h jermar /trunk/uspace/ Indentation and formatting facelift for libc.
Libc headers now have C99 compliant guards.
 
1787 6517 d 2 h decky / move kernel/trunk, uspace/trunk and boot/trunk to trunk/kernel, trunk/uspace and trunk/boot  
1751 6539 d 10 h palkovsky /uspace/trunk/ Sligtly more efficient ipc.  
1709 6542 d 8 h jermar /uspace/trunk/ Fix some broken doxygen comments.  
1653 6551 d 1 h cejka /uspace/trunk/ Doxygen comments.
