- Rename EX_NOBLOB to EX_NOCOALESCE; it's much more descriptive of
what's going on.
- In extent_free_region_descriptor(), if we're a fixed extent,
freeing a dynamically allocated region descriptor, and someone
is waiting on the freelist, let the waiter have it, rather than
free'ing it back to the system.
- Use ALIGN(), rather than our homegrown EXTENT_ALIGN(), when dealing
with map overhead. Privatize the EXTENT_ALIGN() macro; there's no need
to export it.
- Implement EX_BOUNDZERO flag. This changes the boundary line policy in
extent_alloc() and extent_alloc_subregion(); boundary lines are
computed relative to 0, rather then the start of the extent.
- Fix a nasty race between multiple participants doing region and
descriptor allocation.
- Add a new flag to specify that it's ok to wait for space in the
extent: EX_WAITSPACE.
- Blow away an unnecessary splhigh()/splx().
- Put a bunch of sanity code inside #ifdef DIAGNOSTIC/#endif.
- Fix up usage of MBD_ISPID(). (from Jason Thorpe)
- Be careful not to deref bad pointers in the MMU fault handler. (ditto)
- Ensure trap() never deals with a NULL proc, and if our proc has
no pcb, punt. (Suggested by Gordon Ross)
- Initialize proc0.p_addr just after setting up the kernel stack, to avoid
getting NULL pointers in trap(). Change suggested by Gordon Ross.
- Panic if main() returns.
prototypes, and suppress a bogus "might be used uninitialized" warning.
It's clear from reading the logic of the function that produces the
warning that the variable will not be used uninitialized, but the
compiler just isn't smart enough, I guess. Marked XXX for future reference.
rename SYSCALL_NOLABEL as CALLSYS_ERROR (for consistency with CALLSYS_NOERROR
now in asm.h), and implement it using CALLSYS_NOERROR.
reimplement SYSCALL, RSYSCALL, and PSEUDO to use the appropriate macros.
implement SYSCALL_NOERROR and RSYSCALL_NOERROR to do the same thing as
SYSCALL and RSYSCALL, but without the error checking/handling.
create an assembly label, and SYSCALLNUM to convert a syscall name into
the macro that's defined to be its number. Add a CALLSYS_NOERROR macro
which invokes the named system call. (CALLSYS_NOERROR is here since
it's used in locore, for sigcode.)
restart if we get multiple status interrupts before the softintr()
routine gets a chance to run. The fix is to determine and accumulate
status line changes at the H/W interrupt level, and then check and zero
the accumulated changes when the softint() finally runs. Many thanks
to Bill Studenmund <wrstuden@loki.stanford.edu> for finding and fixing.
