3492 5918 d 12 h rimsky /branches/sparc/ Changes in trunk merged into the sparc branch. SILO's ramdisk issue solved by the CONFIG_RD_EXTERNAL option.  
3397 5950 d 17 h rimsky /branches/sparc/ Merged recent changes from trunk into the Sparc branch.  
3343 5974 d 13 h decky /branches/sparc/ add sparc branch  
3334 5977 d 15 h jermar /trunk/uspace/lib/libc/generic/ Let ipc_data_{read|write}_start() use the async framework.  
2820 6108 d 8 h decky /trunk/uspace/lib/libc/generic/ fix copy-paste typo  
2678 6206 d 13 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 6206 d 14 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 6206 d 20 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.
 
2663 6214 d 9 h jermar /trunk/uspace/ Reimplement VFS_READ using IPC_M_DATA_READ.  
2662 6214 d 9 h jermar /trunk/ Add support for IPC_M_DATA_READ calls.  
2660 6214 d 11 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 6233 d 10 h cejka /trunk/ Extended IPC_M_CONNECT_TO_ME to use 3 user defined parameters.
Phone identifier is passed in ARG5.
 
2636 6235 d 9 h jermar /trunk/ Update comments wrt the previous commit.
Minor formatting fixes.
 
2635 6235 d 10 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 6243 d 16 h jermar /trunk/ Add mode argument to IPC forward.
This argument can be used to modify the way forward behaves.
 
2620 6245 d 21 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 6247 d 9 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 6247 d 21 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 6248 d 18 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 6295 d 23 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 6310 d 10 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 6311 d 1 h jermar /trunk/uspace/lib/libc/generic/ Pseudo thread -> fibril change in several comments.  
2522 6313 d 23 h jermar /trunk/uspace/lib/libc/ Add wrappers facilitating easy use of IPC_M_DATA_SEND calls and answers.  
2490 6386 d 13 h jermar /trunk/uspace/lib/libc/generic/ Improve comments in async.c  
2482 6393 d 5 h jermar /trunk/ Goodbye pseudo threads, welcome fibrils.
The renaming might still be incomplete.
 
2479 6397 d 17 h jermar /trunk/ New, better-structured, directory layout for uspace.  
2471 6403 d 11 h jermar /trunk/ Greatly improve comments in the IPC layer.
Now I think I finally start to understand our IPC internals :-)
 
2359 6433 d 20 h jermar /trunk/ Improve comments for the IPC subsystem.
Fix formatting and indentation.
 
2071 6554 d 10 h jermar /trunk/ (c) versus (C)  
1923 6647 d 10 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 6689 d 10 h jermar /trunk/uspace/ Indentation and formatting facelift for libc.
Libc headers now have C99 compliant guards.
 
1787 6744 d 12 h decky / move kernel/trunk, uspace/trunk and boot/trunk to trunk/kernel, trunk/uspace and trunk/boot  
1751 6766 d 20 h palkovsky /uspace/trunk/ Sligtly more efficient ipc.  
1709 6769 d 18 h jermar /uspace/trunk/ Fix some broken doxygen comments.  
1653 6778 d 11 h cejka /uspace/trunk/ Doxygen comments.  
1610 6779 d 15 h palkovsky /uspace/trunk/ Revised ipc. Now it is preferrable to use only functions from async.h, they
take care of correct buffering, waiting for answers etc.
 
1518 6783 d 14 h palkovsky /uspace/trunk/ Changed recommended way of asynchronous communication.  
1503 6783 d 18 h jermar /uspace/trunk/libc/ Sync with last kernel commit (the ability to specify whether a sleep is interruptible or not).  
1489 6784 d 9 h palkovsky /uspace/trunk/ Added integration of console & fb.
Added ipc_call_async_3 call.
 
1463 6785 d 15 h palkovsky /uspace/trunk/libc/ Added asynchronous waiting on ipc_async_send, when kernel limits
are reached. It works better in test_time.
