3034 6001 d 9 h svoboda /branches/tracing/kernel/generic/ Convert kb_cleanup_lock to a mutex  
3018 6004 d 2 h svoboda /branches/tracing/ Isolate udebug-related thread_t fields into udebug_thread_t  
3015 6004 d 8 h svoboda /branches/tracing/kernel/generic/ Call udebug_stoppable_begin() after scheduling, rather than before - avoid restricted contex.  
2902 6020 d 10 h svoboda /branches/tracing/kernel/generic/ Implement proper kbox thread shutdown, with all bells and whistles. Use THREAD->debug_active in udebug_stoppable_xx() and friends  
2898 6021 d 0 h svoboda /branches/tracing/ Implement operation UDEBUG_M_STOP that stops a thread. Can be used for stopping program by hitting a key in debugger. Somewhat jittery demo in sctrace. Fix missing lock of THREAD->debug_lock in udebug_stoppable_end()  
2866 6030 d 9 h svoboda /branches/tracing/kernel/generic/ Verify that thread is waiting in syscall event when reading syscall args  
2848 6049 d 8 h svoboda /branches/tracing/kernel/generic/ Use debug_lock in thread struct for finer locking, to avoid problems with waitq_wakeup  
2839 6050 d 1 h svoboda /branches/tracing/kernel/generic/ Add thread_attach_by_id() and use it to do ipc_connect_kbox() with proper locking  
2827 6054 d 8 h svoboda /branches/tracing/kernel/generic/ Verify that a thread/task is in appropriate state when handling debug calls  
2826 6054 d 9 h svoboda /branches/tracing/kernel/generic/ Move debug_go_call from task struct to thread struct  
2825 6054 d 10 h svoboda /branches/tracing/kernel/generic/ Introduce task debug-states (udebug_task_state_t)  
2817 6055 d 1 h svoboda /branches/tracing/kernel/generic/ Add REGS_READ and REGS_WRITE debug methods to access userspace register state (no effect yet)  
2805 6057 d 4 h svoboda /branches/tracing/ add ipc call to retrieve syscall arguments  
2801 6057 d 10 h svoboda /branches/tracing/ [tracing] initial debug interface support  
2799 6057 d 11 h svoboda /branches/tracing/ Revert all changes in tracing branch (sync to r2785 of trunk)  
2787 6066 d 3 h decky /branches/tracing/ add dynamic linking, debugging and tracing branch  
2502 6308 d 6 h jermar /trunk/kernel/generic/ Replace the threads_btree B+tree with an AVL tree. The new variable is called
threads_tree. For printing list of threads, use the new AVL tree walker
mechanism.

This solves half of ticket #48.
 
2451 6363 d 0 h jermar /trunk/kernel/generic/ JoinMe -> Lingering  
2446 6366 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.
 
2440 6366 d 22 h jermar /trunk/kernel/generic/ Fix the problem with sys_thread_create() by splitting the create and attach functionality of
thread_create(). Now it is possible to specify a flag that will cause thread_create() to only allocate and
initialize the thread structure. A call to thread_attach() will make the thread visible to the system.
This arrangement makes it easier to undo creation of a thread in case of a failure in sys_thread_create().
