this saves 4 bytes per page. To compensate the loss of bytes, the offset is now
stored in page size units, that's enough to address 2^44 or 16 TB (which is now
the maximal supported file size!).
* Renamed vm_page::ppn to physical_page_number.

them apart (this even saves a pointer from vm_virtual_map to its address space)
* aspace -> address_space
* vm_create_address_space() did not check if creating the semaphore succeeded
* Removed team::kaspace - was not really needed (introduced a new vm_kernel_address_space()
function that doesn't grab a reference to the address space)
* Removed vm_address_space::name - it was just a copy of the team name, anyway,
and there is always only one address space per team
* Removed aspace_id - the address space is now using the team_id
* Some cleanup.

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).

following 1152 MB - that area only guarantees that the heap can grow this much before
the application need the memory for something else. And even then, the heap range
is reused from top-to-bottom, allowing for maximum heap usage. Of course, if the
memory after the heap range is not claimed yet, it can still be claimed by the heap,
too. Added new syscall to create the reserved range.
Fixed a bug in vm_delete_areas(): when it removed reserved areas, the area list
could get messed up.
Fixed a bug in resize_area(): resized areas could never be deleted (missing vm_put_area())!
resize_area() now supports reserved regions (but not perfectly yet, see ToDo items).

only if memory becomes tight, and then the range is used from end to
start.
This is useful to reserve heap address ranges.

Renamed vm_area::lock to vm_area::protection to be less confusing - wiring
is still called wiring, though (might be renamed to lock later, as that's
how BeOS calls it).

- the above file now also exports a function to finally complete the kernel's
address space translation map after semaphores became available (was just
not done before)
- renamed some functions, especially the *_init2() functions are now called
like *_init_post_area() to indicate they are called after the area functionality
became available
- removed the _struct suffix from certain structures
- fixed some return types
- added prototype for vm_free_unused_boot_loader_range() to be called by
arch code.

This cleans the page handling when having to make an area copy-on-write;
regions belong to vm_cache_ref, pages to vm_cache.
Added prototype for new call vm_copy_area().
Fixed some return types.

Changed the way a vm_address_space is deleted: instead of having to explicitly
call vm_delete_aspace(), the last vm_put_aspace() will remove it.

syscalls or to the syscall mechanism (which exposed naming and parameter
inconsistencies).

they are now replaced by get_area_info() and the area_info structure.
get_area_info() still misses some pieces, though.
Added all missing VM user/kernel syscalls.
git-svn-id: file:///srv/svn/repos/haiku/trunk/current@4352 a95241bf-73f2-0310-859d-f6bbb57e9c96
some broken C++ export definitions, added missing licenses etc.
git-svn-id: file:///srv/svn/repos/haiku/trunk/current@3152 a95241bf-73f2-0310-859d-f6bbb57e9c96
Changed the file_descriptor structure (more status_t, name removed).
Changed "extern inline" to "static inline" in thread.h/arch_thread.h as those
also work with -O0 -g.
Added prototypes for [arch_cpu_]user_strlcpy().
