allocating a buffer and copying your data into it, when you have data to
send in several chunks (for example, this could be used by BMessage, as
suggested by Ingo Weinhold).
Code is untested, but should work.

can now only happen if the thread is killed.
_user_receive_data() will now longer pass B_CAN_INTERRUPT to receive_data(),
but B_KILL_CAN_INTERRUPT - this should fix the problem Stefano experienced
with this function, even if I couldn't reproduce it.

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).

Also changed readlink() to be POSIX compliant with those changes.
"ls -l" does now resolve links properly again (the new coreutils version outlined the problems).

they are public now, they might become private later on.
It's almost the same as acquire_sem() but allows you to release another semaphore
atomically. This makes condvar implementations and the like very simple to do.
Added B_CHECK_PERMISSION flags to the user calls, although it's not honored yet.

is perfectly okay on x86 anyway, but should be moved into the arch stuff).

* Added _kern_image_relocated() and _kern_loading_app_failed(), which
are invoked by the loader to provide the kernel with more info.
git-svn-id: file:///srv/svn/repos/haiku/trunk/current@11689 a95241bf-73f2-0310-859d-f6bbb57e9c96
Removed *_create() and *_create_entry_ref() syscalls - they are now handled by
*_open() and *_open_entry_ref() calls which get another parameter for the permissions.

modules to use their module name directly.
Also introduced a whole range of reserved syscall functions in case we want
to add some more.
git-svn-id: file:///srv/svn/repos/haiku/trunk/current@10458 a95241bf-73f2-0310-859d-f6bbb57e9c96
Added real _user_exit_team() syscall (it was previously incorrectly mapped
to _user_exit_thread()).
git-svn-id: file:///srv/svn/repos/haiku/trunk/current@10325 a95241bf-73f2-0310-859d-f6bbb57e9c96
added prototypes for set_tzspecs, used for setting these fields

a new thread_entry_func typedef in the kernel only. Unlike thread_func, it accepts
two arguments - that functionality is not exported to the user, though.
git-svn-id: file:///srv/svn/repos/haiku/trunk/current@8777 a95241bf-73f2-0310-859d-f6bbb57e9c96
Removed some includes from syscalls.h where possible, minor style changes.
git-svn-id: file:///srv/svn/repos/haiku/trunk/current@8256 a95241bf-73f2-0310-859d-f6bbb57e9c96
Renamed the image and node monitor syscalls to the new scheme.
git-svn-id: file:///srv/svn/repos/haiku/trunk/current@8235 a95241bf-73f2-0310-859d-f6bbb57e9c96
Added support functions in sem.h and port.h that return some stats.
git-svn-id: file:///srv/svn/repos/haiku/trunk/current@7289 a95241bf-73f2-0310-859d-f6bbb57e9c96
Renamed the thread/team syscalls to the new naming scheme.
Some other minor cleanups.
