* Introduced in gcc-4.3 for at least Intel platforms
* On ARM, full support added in gcc-4.8
* Other platforms untested, left as-is
* This introduces a breaking change to the ABI for gcc4
* These aren't tested, but since we go off of DCE
versions for a lot of stuff, they may work.
* AMD doens't include market names in their drivers
anymore, so if we want to label them it will take
additional work.
This patch makes it possible to inline rdmsr and wrmsr instruction. The
performance impact shouldn't be significant since they are used relatively
rarely and wrmsr is usually a serializing instruction, but there is no reason
not to do so.
The goal of this patch is to amortize the cost of context switch by making
the compiler aware that context switch clobbers all registers. Because all
register need to be saved anyway there is no additional cost of using
callee saved register in the function that does the context switch.
Similarly to previous patch regarding GDT this is mostly a rewrite of
IDT handling code from C to C++. Thanks to constexpr IDT is now entirely
generated at compile-time.
Virtually no functional change, just rewriting the code from
"C in *.cpp files" to C++. Use of constexpr may be advantageous but
that code is not performance critical anyway.
This patch introduces support of ELF based TLS handling with lazy allocation
and initalization of TLS block for each DSO and thread. The implementation
generally follows the official ABI except that generation counter in dtv
is in fact a pointer to Generation object that contains both generation
counter and size of the dtv. That simplified the implementation a bit, but
could be changed later. The ABI requirements regariding in memory position
of TLS block is not honoured what results in static TLS model being
unsupported. However, that should not be a problem as long as
"executables" in Haiku are in fact shared objects and optimizations which
require specific TLS block in memory layout are not possible anyway.
* Nothing ever reads fTargetName in the scrollbar code, so remove the
field.
* Frees one reserved slot, and a little memory, as the target name was
copied with strdup.
* The ptrdiff_t limits are PTRDIFF_MIN and PTRDIFF_MAX, not PTDIFF_*.
* I could not find any non-Haiku reference to PTDIFF_*, so I guess
that's a mistake.
* Instead of forcing the hash-table to use a copy of the key,
introduce and use TypeOperation template to avoid taking a
reference of a reference type (which gcc2 doesn't allow).
* PackageFSVolumeInfo: Add the directories for all relevant states.
* PackageFSPackageInfo: Include the package file's parent directory node
ref.
Package daemon and package kit still don't support old states yet.
For potential boot volumes with older packages states the respective
item in the boot volume menu now has a sub menu for selecting a state.
The boot loader functionality for this feature is complete -- i.e. the
respective kernel is loaded and the name of the old state is added to
the kernel args -- but kernel packagefs and package daemon support is
still missing.
* The DataReceived hook gets a position argument, making it possible for
listeners to handle out-of-order data (from two range requests at
different positions, for example)
* Adjust HaikuDepot (only user of the API in our sources)
* Add a copy constructor to HTTPRequest that copies the relevant
parameters from an existing request. Makes it easy to repeat a request
with a different range. Could be useful for restarting downloads, or
paralellizing them.
* Add SetRangeStart, SetRangeEnd calls to HTTPRequest, no implementation
yet. I'm putting all the API changes in this commit as it needs to be
synced with a matching haikuwebkit release.
* All archs must update to HaikuWebkit 1.3.0. Previous versions are
broken by this.
... in filenames. Replace the existing Unicode conversion functions
with UTF conversion functions from js that he relicensed MIT for us.
Put the UTF conversion functions in a private but shared code location
so that they can be accessed throughout the kernel.
Right now we only provide functions to convert between UTF-8 and UTF-16.
At some point we should also add functions to convert between UTF-8 and
UTF-32 and UTF-16 and UTF-32 but these aren't needed by exfat.
Remove the old Unicode conversion functions from exfat as they assumed
UCS-2 characters and don't work with UTF-16 used by exfat.
Rename most variables with the term length with code unit where code units
are intended. The term length, when used, means length in bytes while code
units represent either a full 2-byte UTF-16 character or half a 4-byte
surrogate pair.
Create and use BLayoutUtils::AlignOnRect() to position the button label
in BControlLook::DrawLabel().
AlignOnRect(), unlike AlignInFrame(), provides the possibility to return
a rectangle with dimensions greater than the available size.
Add some comments above the methods in LayoutUtils that indicate such.
Also update copyright headers in LayoutUtils and ControlLook
The media server tried to use node monitoring to dynamically add and
remove plug-ins, but it isn't that useful:
* When a plug-in is added, applications would have to query the media
server to get an up to date list of available formats. For example
MediaConvert populates its format menus on startup.
* When removing a plugin, if an app already had it loaded, there is not
much that can be done to keep it working.
* The list of plugins was not sorted by directories (user vs system
add-ons), so the directories were re-scanned to make sure user add-ons
were returned first, rendering the node monitoring less interesting.
Now, the format handling is done by each application. The node
monitoring is removed, instead the apps will scan the plugin directory
when first using the media kit classes. Restarting the application is
needed to update the media formats list.
...when sending the whole view state over the link.
Also inherit the fill rule when pushing states (DrawState
copy constructor). A somewhat sloppy oversight, I must add.
* I don't know what I am doing here, but the test app_server only
ever built for me recently when I disabled the define, so I might
as well commit this...
After load_image() the child thread is suspended and the parent is
expected to resume it later. However, it is possible that the parent
attempts to resume its child after it has been notified that the image
had been loaded but before the child managed to suspend itself. In such
case the child would suspends itself after that wake up attempt and,
consequently will not be ever resumed.
To mitigate that problem flag Thread::going_to_suspend has been added
which helps synchronizing thread suspension and continuation in a similar
way that "traditional" thread blocking is performed. This means that
the child should behave in a following manner: set its going_to_suspend flag,
notify the parent (i.e. any thread that may want to resume it), acquire
its scheduler_lock and suspend itself if the going_to_suspend flag is set.
The parent should follow pattern: clear going_to_suspend flag of the thread
that is about to be resumed, acquire that thread scheduler_lock and enqueue
it in a run queue if it is suspended.
Thanks Oliver for reporting the bug and identifying what causes it.
Most of the actual UserEvent work is done in DPC so that we don't have
to care about the limitations of the context in which UserEvent::Fire()
is invoked. This requires appropriate management of lifetime of UserEvent
instances to make sure that DoDPC() method is always called on a valid
object.
This fixes building openssh on the bootstrap image.
The real problem is that it picks up this file instead of the histedit.h
from libedit, though. But since this include was missing anyway, it
makes sense to fix this file, too.
* BView gets SetFillRule/FillRule methods. The fill rule is part of the
view state.
* The B_NONZERO rule is the default. This is what we implemented before.
* The B_EVEN_ODD rule is the other common possibility for this, and
we need to support it to help WebKit to render properly.
