calls to reflect this. Also, block statclock rather than softclock during
in the proclist locking functions, to address a problem reported on
current-users by Sean Doran.
which use uvm_vslock() should now test the return value. If it's not
KERN_SUCCESS, wiring the pages failed, so the operation which is using
uvm_vslock() should error out.
XXX We currently just EFAULT a failed uvm_vslock(). We may want to do
more about translating error codes in the future.
to uvm_fault_wire(), to guarantee that the kernel stacks will not
cause even a mod/ref emulation fault.
- uvm_vslock(): pass VM_PROT_NONE until this function is updated.
the child inherits the stack pointer from the parent (traditional
behavior). Like the signal stack, the stack area is secified as
a low address and a size; machine-dependent code accounts for stack
direction.
This is required for clone(2).
memory access a mapping was caused by. This is passed through from uvm_fault()
and udv_fault(), and in most other cases is 0.
The pmap module may use this to preset R/M information. On MMUs which require
R/M emulation, the implementation may preset the bits and avoid taking another
fault. On MMUs which keep R/M information in hardware, the implementation may
preset its cached bits to speed up the next call to pmap_is_modified() or
pmap_is_referenced().
the new proc structure when performing a fork. This makes it much
easier to abort a fork operation and return an error if we run out
of KVA space.
The U-area pages are still wired down in {,u}vm_fork(), as before.
UVM was written by chuck cranor <chuck@maria.wustl.edu>, with some
minor portions derived from the old Mach code. i provided some help
getting swap and paging working, and other bug fixes/ideas. chuck
silvers <chuq@chuq.com> also provided some other fixes.
this is the UVM kernel code portion.
this will be KNF'd shortly. :-)
