2678 5974 d 1 h jermar /trunk/uspace/ The IPC_M_SHARE_* and IPC_M_DATA_* calls pass through 3 stages. Rename the send,
receive and deliver wrappers to names ending with 'start', 'receive' and
'finalize', respectively. This should make it clearer for dummies.
 
2677 5974 d 2 h jermar /trunk/ Rename IPC_M_AS_AREA_SEND to IPC_M_SHARE_OUT. Rename IPC_M_AS_AREA_RECV to
IPC_M_SHARE_IN. Provide user-friendly wrappers for these methods so that even
dummies can get it right. Some applications using simpler protocols still use
these methods directly.
 
2676 5974 d 8 h jermar /trunk/ Simplify the IPC_M_DATA_WRITE protocol. Do not pass the source address space
virtual address to the recipient. This feature was not used anyway. Now
IPC_M_DATA_WRITE and IPC_M_DATA_READ are feature-aligned.
 
2662 5981 d 21 h jermar /trunk/ Add support for IPC_M_DATA_READ calls.  
2660 5981 d 23 h jermar /trunk/ Rename IPC_M_DATA_SEND to IPC_M_DATA_WRITE. Now, when we also add
IPC_M_DATA_READ, it will not clash and cause confusion with userspace wrappers
such as ipc_data_receive(). Rename the forementioned wrappers to
ipc_data_write_send(), ipc_data_write_receive() and ipc_data_write_deliver().
 
2637 6000 d 23 h cejka /trunk/ Extended IPC_M_CONNECT_TO_ME to use 3 user defined parameters.
Phone identifier is passed in ARG5.
 
2635 6002 d 23 h cejka /trunk/ Function ipc_connect_me_to sends 3 user defined arguments now.
One argument added also to ipc_forward_fast.
Fixed devmap and improved its test.
 
2622 6011 d 4 h jermar /trunk/ Add mode argument to IPC forward.
This argument can be used to modify the way forward behaves.
 
2619 6014 d 21 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 6015 d 9 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 6016 d 6 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.
 
2588 6032 d 4 h jermar /trunk/uspace/ Add ipc_answer_fast_[01] macros so that ipc_answer_fast() users don't have to
write zero arguments all the time.
 
2541 6069 d 6 h jermar /trunk/uspace/ Header cleanup.
Move off_t, size_t and ssize_t into sys/types.h.
Get rid off the non-standard and dummy types.h.
 
2531 6077 d 23 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().
 
2522 6081 d 12 h jermar /trunk/uspace/lib/libc/ Add wrappers facilitating easy use of IPC_M_DATA_SEND calls and answers.  
2479 6165 d 5 h jermar /trunk/ New, better-structured, directory layout for uspace.  
2471 6170 d 23 h jermar /trunk/ Greatly improve comments in the IPC layer.
Now I think I finally start to understand our IPC internals :-)
 
2089 6311 d 5 h decky /trunk/ huge type system cleanup
remove cyclical type dependencies across multiple header files
many minor coding style fixes
 
2071 6321 d 22 h jermar /trunk/ (c) versus (C)  
1923 6414 d 22 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.
