3948 5747 d 20 h jermar /trunk/kernel/arch/amd64/ Unbreak amd64.  
3947 5747 d 20 h jermar /trunk/ This is the evil commit. In particular, it does:

- introduces more powerful pseudo code for userspace IRQ top-half handlers
- changes the internals of IRQ dispatching
- simplifies the kernel's i8042 driver
- adapts the uspace i8042 driver to make use of the new pseudocode
- breaks all other architectures except ia32
- breaks almost all existing drivers
- breaks switching between uspace and kernel drivers
 
3946 5747 d 21 h jermar /trunk/kernel/arch/ia32/include/ Fix ia32's pio_{read,write}_32().  
3941 5748 d 17 h jermar /trunk/kernel/ Let IRQ claim methods take irq_t * instead of the instance argument.  
3940 5748 d 21 h decky /trunk/kernel/ make hw_area API more generic
this allows mapping of EGA VRAM on ia32/amd64
 
3936 5748 d 22 h decky /trunk/ dash is not a safe character for C preprocessor, use underscore instead  
3935 5749 d 14 h jermar /trunk/kernel/arch/sparc64/src/drivers/ Fix sparc64 build.  
3934 5749 d 14 h jermar /trunk/kernel/ Improve the ns16550 driver.

- The driver support multiple instances.
- It still remembers the last registered IRQ in a global structure (cannot be
easily fixed now)
- Was converted to use PIO directly
 
3932 5749 d 16 h jermar /trunk/kernel/ Kill arch/drivers/ega.h. Provide one-stop shopping
place for architectures with ia32 legacy I/O space.
 
3930 5749 d 16 h jermar /trunk/kernel/ Adapt most of the kernel to ioport8_t, ioport16_t and ioport32_t types.  
3929 5749 d 16 h jermar /trunk/kernel/arch/ Introduce ioport8_t, ioport16_t and ioport32_t. These types are to be used with
pio_read_n() and pio_write_n() functions. This breaks everything.
 
3928 5749 d 18 h jermar /trunk/kernel/ Kill arch/drivers/i8042.h.  
3922 5751 d 15 h decky /trunk/ make arch_pre_main optional, don't force any specific prototype
simplify boot process
mips32: detect number of configured CPUs in msim
 
3917 5751 d 16 h decky /trunk/ remove non-standard define  
3913 5752 d 0 h decky /trunk/ mips32: basic SMP support  
3910 5752 d 13 h decky /trunk/kernel/arch/mips32/ eliminate non-standard -D$(MACHINE)  
3908 5752 d 19 h decky /trunk/ overhaul pareas: use one single physical area for the physical address space not belonging to physical memory  
3906 5753 d 15 h jermar /trunk/kernel/ IRQ handlers are using one superfluous argument and an unused elipsis.
On the other hand, IRQ claim functions would need to be passed the instance
argument.
 
3903 5753 d 22 h jermar /trunk/kernel/arch/ia32/include/ Fix ia32 build for Pentium 3 systems.  
3902 5753 d 22 h jermar /trunk/kernel/ Introduce a more platform-neutral name for programmed I/O.

The new API looks like pio_read_n() or pio_write_n(), where n is 8, 16 or 32.
The old API (i.e. inb(), inw(), inl(), outb() outw(), outl()) may have made
some people think that the interface is only to be used with the separate I/O
space. That's not the case. This API is to be implemented on all platforms
so that we can finally have really generic kernel device drivers.
