libroot). It's available in the kernel through the private
get_haiku_revision() and added to the kernel syslog output.

Basically, there was a pretty subtle race between the cpus in main where if the main cpu released the AP cpus and then before the AP cpus had a chance to run the boot cpu started creating the main thread (which causes smp ici messages to be created) the system would livelock, where the boot cpu waited forever for the AP cpu to acknowledge the ICI (for a TLB flush when creating the kernel stack).
Added smp_cpu_rendezvous(), used to synchronize all the cpus to a particular point, and used it a few times in main().
While i was at it i fixed another race that'll probably never happen, but what the hey. Make sure the kernel args are copied into kernel space by the main cpu before letting any other ones use it.

the new cpuid stuff was apparently exacerbating an existing problem where various bits of low level
cpu code (specifically get_current_cpu) weren't really initialized before being used. Changed the
order to set up a fake set of threads to point each cpu at really early in boot to make sure that at
all points in code it can get the current 'thread' and thus the current cpu.
A probably better solution would be to have dr3 point to the current cpu which would then point to the
current thread, but that has a race condition that would require an int disable, etc.

away cpuid info into the current cpu structure. Trouble was the code was running before the current
thread pointer was set on each cpu, so it was always looking up cpu 0's structure and saving there,
leaving the other ones uninitialized. Surprisingly this works fine on my machine, but obviously fails
on others (cpuid info would have been zeroed probably). Solution is to change the order that things
are brought up on each cpu to set the current thread pointer first. I don't really like that solution
but it'll work for now. Added a comment to the effect.

at boot, per cpu, detect the cpu, pull down all the relevant cpuid bits and
save them into the per-cpu structure. Changed most of the code scattered here
and there that reads the cpuid to use a new api, x86_check_feature, which looks
at the saved bits.
Also changed the system_info stuff to read from these bits.
While i was at it, refreshed all the bits to be current.

commented the insertion of the attribute name in patterns in the case of a string attribute
notify_probe_by_file chooses a module based on a bus specific suffix
dm_register_child_device has a parameter to optionally check the support for the node
added scanning of bus devices after the boot filesystem is mounted
fixed dm_rescan, locking was misbehaving
fixed SYSTEM_DRIVER_REGISTRATION definition
added B_DRIVER_MAPPING attributes for PCI and ACPI devices:
%vendor%_%device% for PCI, hid_%hid% and type_%type% for ACPI
moved acpi_device_module_info definition to public ACPI.h

the next step would be to rescan the partition tree with a job to recognize unrecognized partitions (asynchronously ?)

the device manager is initialized. For x86 it does nothing, but
for PPC it searches for a supported interrupt controller and
remembers it for later use.
arch_int_{enable,disable}_io_interrupt() are implemented as
well as handling of external exceptions (aka as I/O interrupts).
We'll see later how well that works.

Basically the architecture specific code is now responsible to
init and make use of the platform specific code, now. The reason
being that we have only one kernel per platform and thus cannot
decide at compile time, which platform to use (if any).
The PPC implementation features an abstract base class PPCPlatform
(implemented for all supported platforms) through which platform
support is provided.

{HAIKU,HOST,TARGET}_KERNEL_PIC_{CC,LINK}FLAGS which define the
compiler/linker flags specifying the kind of position independence
the kernel shall have. For x86 we had and still have -fno-pic, but the
PPC kernel has -fPIE (position independent executable) now, as we
need to relocate it.
* The boot loader relocates the kernel now. Mostly copied the relocation
code from the kernel ELF loader. Almost completely rewrote the PPC
specific relocation code, though. It's more correct and more complete now
(some things are still missing though).
* Added boot platform awareness to the kernel. Moved the generic
Open Firmware code (openfirmware.c/h) from the boot loader to the kernel.
* The kernel PPC serial debug output is sent to the console for the time
being.
* The PPC boot loader counts the CPUs now and allocates the kernel stacks
(made OF device iteration a bit more flexible on the way -- the search
can be restricted to subtree). Furthermore we really enter the kernel...
(Yay! :-) ... and crash in the first dprintf() (in the atomic_set()
called by acquire_spinlock()). kprintf() works, though.

service depends on it, it doesn't make any sense to call it that early in the
game.
* The VFS now has a low memory handler for vnodes as well. If there is enough
memory left, it won't free any vnodes anymore.
* Potential crashing bug fix: some functions did not check if the FD passed
in belonged to the right type; they just assumed it had a valid vnode, but
it could have had a mount structure associated as well.

has not yet been tested, though - I'll do this after this commit):
* Removed the arch_memory_type stuff from vm_area; since there are only 8 memory
ranges on x86, it's simply overkill. The MTRR code now remembers the area ID
and finds the MTRR that way (it could also iterate over the existing MTRRs).
* Introduced some post_modules() init functions.
* If the other x86 CPUs out there don't differ a lot, MTRR functionality might
be put back into the kernel.
* x86_write_msr() was broken, it wrote the 64 bit number with the 32 bit words
switched - it took me some time (and lots of #GPs) to figure that one out.
* Removed the macro read_ebp() and introduced a function x86_read_ebp()
(it's not really a time critical call).
* Followed the Intel docs on how to change MTRRs (symmetrically on all CPUs
with caches turned off).
* Asking for memory types will automatically change the requested length to
a power of two - note that BeOS seems to behave in the same, although that's
not really very clean.
* fixed MTRRs are ignored for now - we should make sure at least, though,
that they are identical on all CPUs (or turn them off, even though I'd
prefer the BIOS stuff to be uncacheable, which we don't enforce yet, though).

Extracted scheduler_init() from start_scheduler() (which is now called scheduler_start()).
Moved scheduler related function prototypes from thread.h to the new scheduler.h.
Cleanup.

user application performs a division by zero or causes a general
protection fault. For some exceptions (e.g. machine check) I wasn't
quite sure whether they can be caused by user apps at all, so we panic()
in those cases. Wouldn't harm, if someone more knowledgable would check
this, though.
* Removed the unused fault handling stuff, respectively moved the little
that was used into x86/arch_int.c.

called by debug_init_post_vm().
Since the availability of a blue screen specific getchar() is static anyway, there
is no need for the sBlueScreenGetChar variable (only the message "only serial input
available" gets lost, but since that is platform specific anyway...).
Hello blue screen! We now have an on-screen KDL, to be enabled by the kernel
setting "bluescreen", just like on BeOS.
The blue screen does not yet support any cursor actions or backspace, though (need
to grab some stuff from our console driver).

kernel_debugger() didn't do enough before; panic() did all the work - but
since the former is a public function as well, I moved all the functionality
to it. Also fixed a possible buffer overrun in panic().
Renamed dbg_* to debug_*.
"serial_debug_port" setting did not ignore negative values.
