3004 6591 d 6 h svoboda /branches/dynload/ A crude task_spawn() libc function to run a program. A tiny command-line application 'cli' to test it.  
3001 6592 d 7 h svoboda /branches/dynload/kernel/generic/ Kernel support for running programs from userspace.  
2927 6602 d 11 h decky /branches/dynload/ added dynload branch  
2504 6893 d 2 h jermar /trunk/kernel/generic/ Give the AVL tree walkers the possibility to take an argument.
Each walker is now supposed to return a bool value to support walk termination.

Switch over from the tasks_btree B+tree to tasks_tree AVL tree.
This makes the fix for ticket #48 complete.		  
2446 6951 d 6 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.		  
2227 7004 d 15 h decky /trunk/kernel/ start shutdown infrastructure  
2216 7006 d 1 h decky /trunk/ make thread ID 64 bit (task ID is 64 bit already)
cleanup thread syscalls		  
2106 7069 d 8 h jermar /trunk/kernel/ Merge as_t structure into one and leave the differring parts in as_genarch_t.

Indentation and formatting changes in header files.		  
2105 7073 d 9 h decky /trunk/kernel/ move ipc structures to ipc.h  
2103 7074 d 1 h decky /trunk/kernel/generic/include/ move timeout_t to timeout.h
move other helper types to thread.h		  
2096 7074 d 3 h decky /trunk/kernel/generic/include/ move thread_t to thread.h  
2093 7074 d 4 h decky /trunk/kernel/ spinlock extern declaration macro  
2092 7074 d 5 h decky /trunk/kernel/generic/include/ move cpu_t to cpu.h  
2090 7075 d 4 h decky /trunk/kernel/generic/include/proc/ cleanup garbage  
2089 7075 d 8 h decky /trunk/ huge type system cleanup
remove cyclical type dependencies across multiple header files
many minor coding style fixes		  
2071 7086 d 1 h jermar /trunk/ (c) versus (C)  
2039 7120 d 9 h decky /trunk/kernel/generic/ accumulate task accounting, run tests as separate kernel task  
1888 7211 d 4 h jermar /trunk/ C99 compliant header guards (hopefully) everywhere in the kernel.
Formatting and indentation changes.
Small improvements in sparc64.		  
1820 7258 d 22 h decky /trunk/kernel/generic/ initial security context support  
1787 7276 d 3 h decky / move kernel/trunk, uspace/trunk and boot/trunk to trunk/kernel, trunk/uspace and trunk/boot
