This does not buy us new functionnality for now, because we still have to
discover how mach_init (which acts as a name server, enabling processes to
discover each other's ports) is able to receive messages from other processes
(this is a bootstrap problem, and the bootstrap port might be the place to
search).
While we are there:
- removed a lot of debug which is now available using ktrace.
- reworked message handling to avoid mutliple copyin/copyout of the
same data. ktrace of Mach message now uses the in-kernel copy of the
message instead of copying it from userland.
- packed mach trap handlers arguments into a structure to avoid modifying
everything next time we have to add an argument.
used to get and set the thread user value, which is an opaque pointer to
a per thread structure stored in userland. cthread_self() is used by Darwin
as an implementation for pthread_self(), which return the thread id.
We use the p_emuldata field of struct proc in order to keep track of the
thread user value. For now the value is per-process, but we will make it
per-thread when we will take care of threading.
While we are there, do some KNF
Check for target buffer length, and fail if it is too short
Move mach_msg_trap and mach_msg_overwrite_trap to their own file
Remove some useless debug messages now we have ktrace
Remove __P()
