4537 5750 d 22 h trochtova /branches/dd/ dd branch synchronized with trunk (revision 4536)  
4055 5849 d 19 h trochtova /branches/dd/ changes in trunk (rev 4054) merged into dd branch  
3022 6132 d 21 h decky /branches/dd/ device drivers branch  
2451 6492 d 12 h jermar /trunk/kernel/generic/ JoinMe -> Lingering  
2446 6495 d 16 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.
 
2310 6520 d 13 h jermar /trunk/kernel/generic/ Cleanup the waitq_wakeup() interface.
Replace numeric constants (i.e. 0)
and boolean constants (i.e. false) with
more readable WAKEUP_FIRST. Also change the
type of the second argument of waitq_wakeup()
to a newly introduced type wakeup_mode_t.

Fix behaviour of waitq_wakeup() in case
that WAKEUP_ALL semantics is required
but no threads are sleeping in the wait
queue. This is a similar fix to that of
Jan Hudecek committed in the RCU branch,
but, IMHO, is more straightforward and
also doesn't eat up previous missed
wakeups.
 
2285 6532 d 21 h jermar /trunk/kernel/generic/src/proc/ Formatting and indentation fixes.  
2216 6550 d 12 h decky /trunk/ make thread ID 64 bit (task ID is 64 bit already)
cleanup thread syscalls
 
2183 6552 d 16 h jermar /trunk/kernel/generic/ Continue to de-oversynchronize the kernel.
- replace as->refcount with an atomic counter; accesses to this
reference counter are not to be done when the as->lock mutex is held;
this gets us rid of mutex_lock_active();

Remove the possibility of a deadlock between TLB shootdown and asidlock.
- get rid of mutex_lock_active() on as->lock
- when locking the asidlock spinlock, always do it conditionally and with
preemption disabled; in the unsuccessful case, enable interrupts and try again
- there should be no deadlock between TLB shootdown and the as->lock mutexes
- PLEASE REVIEW !!!

Add DEADLOCK_PROBE's to places where we have spinlock_trylock() loops.
 
2118 6611 d 17 h decky /trunk/kernel/generic/src/ explicit typecast, fix signed/unsigned comparison  
2089 6619 d 19 h decky /trunk/ huge type system cleanup
remove cyclical type dependencies across multiple header files
many minor coding style fixes
 
2087 6620 d 14 h jermar /trunk/kernel/ Indentaion and formatting changes even Martin will like :-)  
2071 6630 d 11 h jermar /trunk/ (c) versus (C)  
2068 6637 d 19 h jermar /trunk/kernel/ Formatting and indentation fixes.  
2067 6640 d 17 h jermar /trunk/kernel/ More formatting changes.  
2040 6664 d 18 h decky /trunk/kernel/generic/src/proc/ add forgotten btree_remove()  
2030 6665 d 20 h decky /trunk/kernel/ thread CPU cycles accounting  
1888 6755 d 15 h jermar /trunk/ C99 compliant header guards (hopefully) everywhere in the kernel.
Formatting and indentation changes.
Small improvements in sparc64.
 
1882 6756 d 19 h jermar /trunk/kernel/ Support for sparc64 FPU context.  
1854 6771 d 21 h jermar /trunk/kernel/ Define architecture-specific thread sub-constructors and sub-destructors on all architectures.
Define the THREAD_FLAG_USPACE which means that the thread runs in user space.
The forementioned changes allow for allocating of user window buffer on sparc64
threads that execute in userspace.

A lot of formatting and indentation fixes.
