removed in several cases.
* vfs_get_vnode_cache() now always gives out a reference to the cache it
returns; if it needs to allocate a new one, the vnode owns one reference,
and the caller another.
* therefore, file_cache_create() now owns a reference to its vm_cache_ref, and
frees it in file_cache_delete().

* The CopySetHaikuRevision propagates the value of the
HAIKU_INCLUDE_IN_IMAGE variable from the source to the target.
* Propagate the value of HAIKU_INCLUDE_IN_IMAGE from "kernel" to
"kernel_$(TARGET_ARCH)".

* vm_copy_on_write_area() now does no longer overwrite the ref_count, but keeps
it's reference to the cache until it has unlocked it.
* It now also locks its reference from the start, preventing any other thread
to interfere.
* vm_cache_remove_consumer() now detects if it has to remove a foreign busy
page itself in order to preserve a mapped page.
* vm_soft_fault() now keeps a reference to the cache that owns the page to be
mapped until it has actually mapped it.
* vm_unmap_pages() removed the mappings of all pages of the area instead of only
those that are within the requested range.
* Kept (disabled) debug output for convenience.

When iterating through modules, the iterator was loading the module file, inserting it into the module image hash. Then, the first time get_module() was called on a module contained in the image, it was trying to load the image again. It probably actually was. Changed the logic to call get_module_image() which checks to see if it's already loaded.

* Simplified the nested while loops by dropping the special handling for the
first iovec and restructuring the innermost loop. This also rules out
the possibility of a zero-length temporary vec. IMHO the readability
has improved quite a bit (YMMV :-). Hopefully without introducing new

* Solved nasty race condition between the page scrubber and
vm_page_allocate_page_run(): The page scrubber didn't mark the pages
it was processing busy, so that vm_page_allocate_page_run() could claim
them in the meantime. They would end up in the clear pages queue,
although being assigned to a cache at the same time. This should
finally solve bug #1056.

mapped fully read-only (for both kernel and userland). Previously a
kernel read access to a yet unmapped r/w accessible userland address
would cause the page from the lower cache to be mapped with write
permission for userland (on x86 also for the kernel) thus e.g.
allowing a fork()ed child process to write to the parent process'
memory.

the team enters the debugger. Handy in situations when the program in
question can't really be started in a debugger (or it would be
complicated to do so). The functions work only as long as no debugger is
installed for the team.
We clear the arch specific team and thread debug infos now, when a new

start address wasn't aligned and numBytes was a multiple of the page
size, the last page was ignored. A subsequent get_memory_map() would
return NULL as physical address for that page, if it hadn't been mapped
before (that function looks generally suspicious, IMHO). E.g. reads from a
device into an unaligned buffer that hadn't been touched before would
hit that problem. Fixes bug #1075. Might also fix other reported
problems (like #1056), since this bug could have cause all kinds of weird
behavior and crashes.

vnode::covered_by fields. Together with sMountOpLock it allows write
access, either lock alone suffices for read access. Before
sMountOpLock had to be acquired for read (and write) access, which
meant that while mounting/unmounting a FS path resolution would have
to wait. In case of the UserlandFS this would even cause a deadlock
while mounting if the client tried to resolve the path of the device
to be mounted (e.g. by opening it).
* Added a clarifying comment about read access to the
fs_mount::covers_vnode/root_vnode field and removed locking in
resolve_volume_root_to_mount_point() which was not necessary for

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.

* vm_area and vm_page now have a new field "mappings" where they will store lists
of vm_page_mapping structures. vm_page::ref_count is gone, as it's no longer
needed (it was never updated correctly, anyway).
* vm_caches now have a type field, ie. CACHE_TYPE_RAM for anonymous areas - this
makes the stores a bit less independent, but is quite handy in several places.
* Added new vm_map_page() and vm_unmap_pages() functions to be used whenever you
map in or unmap pages into/from an area. They don't do much more than handling
vm_page::wired_count correctly right now, though (ie. B_LAZY_LOCK is now working
as expected as well).
* Moved the device fault handler to vm_map_physical_memory(); it was not really
used as a fault handler, anyway.
* Didn't notice Ingo's changes to the I/O space region broke lock_memory(). It
now checks the type of the area that contains the memory, and doesn't lock
anymore if not needed which solves the problem in a platform independent way.
* Implemented lock_memory() and unlock_memory() for real: they now change the
vm_page::wired_count member to identify pages that shouldn't be paged out.
* vm_area_for() now uses vm_area_lookup() internally.
* Fixed various potential overflow conditions with areas that reach 0xffffffff.
* Creating anonymous areas with B_FULL_LOCK no longer causes vm_soft_fault()
to be called, instead, the pages are allocated and mapped (via vm_map_page())
directly.
* Removed the _vm_ prefix for create_area_struct() and create_reserved_area_struct().
* Fixed a bug in vm_page_write_modified() that would not have enqueued pages that
failed to be written to the modified queue again when needed.

vm_alloc_from_kernel_args()) which now allows you to specify a different

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.

Now two complete tss structures exist within the per-cpu structure. Instead
of having to create a seperate area per each one, initialize them in place.
Also, the old mechanism to getting all of the cpus to get initialized was
subtly broken, but still managed to work. Now, just force all the cpus to
initialize at boot, which makes the actual swapping of esp0 somewhat simpler.

for one quantum wasn't really a good idea, as this could get quite expensive for the thread
(depending on the system load, it might have taken a long time until the thread was scheduled
again, no matter what priority it was).
Also, calling thread_yield() in a loop would have taken 100% CPU time.
Now, we sort the thread into the queue as with any other thread, but we'll ignore it once.
This now guarantees an actual context switch, as well as a much fairer rescheduling policy
for threads calling that function.

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.

Replaced the _kern_null syscall with _kern_is_computer_on.
is_computer_on_fire is a bit harder, since it returns a float from kernelland, which
at the moment isn't supported in haiku.

I don't know why (or how) it could work before r19775, though.
This fixes the wrong return code from wait_for_thread() in most cases, and thus,
bug #1011.

* we now always flush the TLBs after having unmapped some pages.
* vm_soft_fault() could traverse to a source cache while it was being collapsed
by vm_cache_remove_consumer() - this is now no longer possible as the latter
marks the cache as busy when doing so, and the former now tests this flag and
locks the cache (via the new fault_acquire_locked_source() function).
* if fault_acquire_locked_source() fails with B_BUSY, the current cache is locked
again, and tested again for the page - as it might have been moved upwards to it
with the destruction of its former source.
* The cache delivering the page for vm_soft_fault() is now locked until the end;
it can no longer go away before having actually mapped the page into the area.
* This also fixes the issue where pages would get lost as vm_soft_fault() put the
page in the active list, no matter if its cache still existed.
* Also, we now keep a reference of to a cache in case a dummy page is inserted; this
makes again sure that it doesn't go away during the execution of vm_soft_fault()
(which could even add this page to the free list...).
* divided vm_soft_fault() into several smaller functions which should make it much
more readable.
* Added a "cache_chain" KDL command that dumps the whole chain until the bottom
when giving a pointer to a vm_cache as parameter.
* now usually call vm_cache_acquire_ref() before map_backing_store(), even though
it shouldn't be really needed (I added it for debugging purposes).
* Some minor cleanup.
* NOTE: a major problem still persists: when removing a vm_cache, it's possible
that some of its pages are still mapped, and there is currently no mechanism
to get rid of these mappings! I've added TODO comments into vm_cache.c where
appropriate.

The "lookup" option has been removed, there is now a "-p" for a physical address, and
"-v" for a virtual address.

process group. This fixes bug #996.
* As a result, the process group stuff and wait_for_child() got much simpler;
get_death_entry() and update_wait_for_any() could go away completely.
* If a team goes away, all of its children are now "reparented" to the kernel team,
instead of the team's parent - this follows common implementations (and POSIX if
I understand it correctly), but not BeOS anymore. The OpenGroup Base says this
about this topic: "If a parent process terminates without waiting for all of its
child processes to terminate, the remaining child processes shall be assigned a
new parent process ID corresponding to an implementation-defined system process."
* We wait too long in wait_test_4 which at least puts us on par with Linux; see
comment in _user_setpgid().

ECHILD in case it doesn't. This fixes bug #995.
* Added a TODO item for solving bug #996.
* wait_for_child() did not release the team lock and restore interrupts in case
the child you wanted to wait for didn't exist...
* with child > 0, wait_for_child() will now check if its really a child of yours,
and not just in the same process group.
