Enable SSE as a part of the "preparation of the environment to run any
C or C++ code" in the entry points of stage2 bootloader.
SSE2 is going to be used by memset() and memcpy().

There is absolutely no reason for these functions to be in commpage,
they don't do anything that involves the kernel in any way.
Additionaly, this patch rewrites memset and memcpy to C++, current
implementation is quite simple (though it may perform surprisingly
well when dealing with large buffers on cpus with ermsb). Better
versions are coming soon.

The possibility to specify custom memcpy and memset implementations
in cpu modules is currently unused and there is generally no point
in such feature.
There are only 2 x86 vendors that really matter and there isn't
very big difference in performance of the generic optmized versions
of these funcions across different models. Even if we wanted different
versions of memset and memcpy depending on the processor model or
features much better solution would be to use STT_GNU_IFUNC and save
one indirect call.
Long story short, we don't really benefit in any way from
get_optimized_functions and the feature it implements and it only adds
unnecessary complexity to the code.

* Removes default mapping of a portion of the RAM (will be done
as needed)
* Passes on the page directory area to kernel, so on early vm init
the kernel can use the area for pagetable allocation.
* Leaves it to the platform to pass in physical memory range(s). This
will ultimately come from FDT.
* Fix long standing issue with allocation of the heap, potentially
causing other part of the bootloader to overwrite the heap.
* Implements pagetable allocator in kernel for early vm mapping.
This fixes the first PANIC seen, we now just get the same one later
on when the VM is up... more to come...
This reverts commit 3fbb24680c.
As I mentioned in #11131, this fix is not correct, and works around
the problem. The real reason was that arch_debug_call_with_fault_handler
was not working properly, so the fault handler went crazy.
With commit eb92810 that is fixed so this can be reverted.
If GCC knows what these functions are actually doing the resulting
code can be optimized better what is especially noticeable in case of
invocations of atomic_{or,and}() that ignore the result. Obviously,
everything is inlined what also improves performance.

Based on an earlier piece of source code of mine that parsed JSON into
QObjects, this JSON parser creates a BMessage tree.
Will be used by Stephan in HaikuDepot for communication with the web app.
* From now on, the gcc-specific system libraries (libgcc, libsupc++ and
libstdc++) are provided by separate packages built along with gcc:
- gcc_syslibs contains the shared libraries (libgcc_s.so, libsupc++.so and
libstdc++.so)
- gcc_syslibs_devel contains the static libraries and both c++ and gcc
headers
The shared libraries now make proper use of symbol versioning and there
are version-specific symlinks
* The buildsystem has been adjusted to no longer use the libraries and
headers from the cross-compiler, but use the ones provided by the
above-mentioned packages. The only exception is that the 32-bit libraries
required for the bootloader of the x86_64 architecture are still taken
from the cross-compiler.
* The new libstdc++.so contains program headers of type PT_RELRO (for
making segments read-only after relocation). While the actual feature
has not been implemented, the runtime_loader should now silently
accept (and ignore) those program headers.
instead or additionally to string.h, in preparation for functions move.
* moves str[n]casecmp() functions and others to strings.h.
* strings.h doesn't include string.h anymore.
* this solves #10949
Besides that this is a nicer interface, it allows us to get a the HPKG
header as a side effect of initializing the reader, thus preventing
seeking backward in the file. This makes "package recompress - <file>"
work.
* Prefix lock functions with __ to mark them as private. Add
forwarding macros to keep existing code working.
* Avoids symbol name clashes with kernel lock APIs, occuring when
using kernellandemu-lib in userlandfs. Thanks to Ingo for the
suggestion.
Until now we always declared in the HPKG header that the package file is
zlib compressed. For uncompressed files we would just store all
individual chunks uncompressed. Now we handle completely uncompressed
files slightly differently: We don't write the redundant chunk size
table anymore. The size savings are minor, but it makes the uncompressed
format read-streamable which may be handy.
* PackageFileHeap{Reader,Writer} as well as Package{Reader,Writer} and
their implementation and super classes do now internally use a
BPositionIO instead of a FD to access the package file. This provides
more flexibility needed for features to come.
* BPackageReader has already grown a new Init() version with a
BPositionIO* parameter.
Simple BPositionIO implementation using the POSIX API on a FD. In effect
similar to BFile, but more easily ported to kernel and boot loader (and
the FD is reusable).
* Ingo copied the methods into a shared location, and then obviously
"forgot" to let BFS use them. As a side note for Ingo: the complete
error GCC reported was "std::fssh_size_t" not defined with the macro
wrapper as code location. The actual problem was a "using std::size_t"
in some C++ header that accidentally got included after the wrapper.
* The shared Query code is not yet used. That'll be done another time.
* Renamed BFS_SHELL define to FS_SHELL, such that QueryParserUtils can be
used in any file system shell, not just the bfs_shell.
* BCompressionAlgorithm is a base class for classes that provide
compression/decompression functionality. There are methods for
compressing/decompressing a single buffer and factory methods for
a compressing/decompressing input/output BDataIO.
* BZlibCompressionAlgorithm is a BCompressionAlgorithm implementation
using zlib.
* FDDataWriter and ZlibDataWriter weren't used anymore.
* AbstractDataWriter was implemented only by PackageFileHeapWriter,
which was only used by WriterImplBase.
* Add a PackageFileHeapWriter::AddDataThrows() which has semantics
equivalent to the previously inherited WriteDataThrows().
Can be requested/stopped via BPackageRoster::{Start,Stop}Watching().
The notification message has the what code B_PACKAGE_UPDATE and contains
fields "event", "location", and "change count".
* The Install() and Update() versions that take a const char* array
now check whether a string looks like a path to a local package file.
If so, they use that file instead of interpreting the string as a
search string.
* Extend the repository hierarchy. There's now a LocalRepository base
class from which InstalledRepository and the new MiscLocalRepository
derive. The latter is instantiated once and collects all package files
specified by path.
* BFatalErrorException: Add commitTransactionResult property and
respective constructor. In case committing the transaction failed,
BPackageManager throws a BFatalErrorException with the result.
* BFatalErrorException::UserInteractionHandler: Pass
BCommitTransactionResult to ProgressTransactionCommitted().
* BDaemonClient: Move inner class BCommitTransactionResult to top level
and make it public.
* BCommitTransactionResult:
- Add a whole bunch of specific error code enum values. Such an error
code is now the primary error, as opposed to before where we would
mix status_t and enum value errors. There's a systemError property
of type status_t which may provide additional information, though
(depending on the primary error type).
- Remove the errorMessage property. Due to mapping all errors to the
specific error codes this is no longer necessary. Mixing such a
message with another error description is also not very helpful when
it comes to localization (still not supported, though).
- Add several properties (paths, strings, error codes) that serve as
arguments to the primary error and are used by FullErrorMessage().
- Add issues property, a list of instances of new class
BTransactionIssue. Those describe non-critical issues (e.g. failed
update of a settings file) that occurred in the process of
committing the transaction. Those issues should be presented to the
user by the package management program.
* Exception: Adjust to transport the BCommitTransactionResult
properties.
* CommitTransactionHandler, FsTransactions, Root, Volume: Adjust to
BCommitTransactionResult/Exception changes.
* CommitTransactionHandler: Now requires a BCommitTransactionResult to
which it adds the issues it encounters. The reply BMessage is no
longer needed, though.
* Volume: Refactor common code from the three methods that use
CommitTransactionHandler into new method _CommitTransaction.
Add GetPathOrName() and PathOrName() methods which try to get some kind
of usable path or at least a file name for the entry. Useful mainly for
debugging and error reporting cases.
When an ARMv7 CPU is detected, immediately turn on the FPU. This allows
us to use vsnprintf in the TRACE call in that function, as our libc is
compiled with floating point support and will trigger a fault if the FPU
is not available.
This lets the boot go further, and crash in mmu_init. Next steps:
* Find why mmu_init is crashing
* Setup some fault handlers, otherwise we call uboot ones, and they are
not very helpful. They will also probably not work once the mmu is
enabledvery helpful. They will also probably not work once the mmu is
enabledvery helpful. They will also probably not work once the mmu is
enabled...
* The Network Kit now makes use of it for BUrlContext, so we need this
in the public headers.
* Problem caught by the new build bot by compiling the unit tests.
* 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.
* 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.
... 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.
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.
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.
* 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.
* Add isb just because.
* pdziepak pointed out that ARMv5 and before
had different barrier support.
* pdziepak also mentioned that dsb was too strong
for __sync_synchronize
* On ARMv6 or older, we do a simulated dsb.
* Move __sync_synchronize into thread.c in libroot
and use the new arch_atomic.h dsb/dmb defines.
* Gets arm @bootstrap-raw to end of bootstrap.
* Don't assume verdex as it isn't clear this was
occurring.
* Make an educated guess on HAIKU_BOOT_PLATFORM
based on provided board (but still allow it to
be overridden)
* Error out if user doesn't populate
HAIKU_BOOT_PLATFORM or enters an unknown board
name.
* You need to add "-sHAIKU_BOOT_BOARD=xxx" to
your jam to build for the proper ARM device.
* Rename beagle to beagleboneblk as per the
documentation.
* Use atomic_get_and_set for return value
* Atomics are no longer volatile
* Add missing arch_cpu_pause stub
* Move arch_cpu_idle to arch_cpu header to match
other architectures
* This will be used to implement compressed http streams
* Remove the custom BDataOutput class, and use BDataIO instead, for
easier integration with existing code.
* ... instead of queuing it for the job thread. The advantage is that
the request will be handled immediately and clients won't have to wait
for transactions (which may even require user feedback) to finish. It
complicates Volume a bit, since there are now two threads that may
access it. The shared data have been moved to a State object which is
protected by a lock.
* For commit transaction requests check whether another package request
is already pending/in progress before queuing a job. Fail immediately,
if there is.
Fixes bug #10039.
Everything untested, but compiles, so it must work. The idea is to introduce
BAffineTransform additionally to the existing Origin and Scale properties of
BViews. One may use it in parallel or as an alternative. Painter in app_server
is not yet aware of the additional transformation. It is however already used
to transform drawing coordinates. It probably needs to work differently,
perhaps only in Painter and AGGTextRenderer.
* This is less pretty, but we need access to the connector
to find the HPD gpio pin mask on the card.
* dp_aux communications seem to work again.
* If you have a DisplayPort item attached to your card you
may want to just unplug it at this point. We attempt DP
link training and it fails. This failure will also cause
other monitors to not function as app_server still isn't
multi-head aware (#10486)
For non-US keyboards, the extra 102th/105th key is used to reach \. But,
we also need it to report | when shifted (this is the key left to
"enter").
This affects only USB keyboards. Thanks to gordoncjp for reporting!
When switching AppMetaMimeCreator from BMimeType to Database the
SetIcon[ForType]() calls with a BBitmap* ended up calling the vector
icon version with the icon_size as the data size argument, thus not only
not writing the bitmap icon attributes, but also clobbering the vector
icon attribute.
* BSolver/LibsolvSolver: Add FullSync() method. It uses libsolv's
SOLVER_DISTUPGRADE mode.
* BPackageManager: Add FullSync() using the new solver mode.
* pkgman: Add full-sync command.
The new command is similar to the update command without arguments, just
more aggressive, allowing downgrading or even removal of packages, to
match the state of the repositories. Just like "update" it doesn't work
properly yet.
UserEvent can be fired from scheduler_reschedule() i.e. while holding current
thread scheduler_lock. If the current thread goes sleep and during reschedule
one of its timers sends a signel to it, then scheduler_enqueue_in_run_queue()
attempts to acquire again its scheduler_lock resulting in a deadlock.
There was also a minor issue with both scheduler_reschedule() and
scheduler_enqueue_in_run_queue() acquiring current CPU scheduler mode lock.
Some websites set cookies expiring in the (not so) far future, after year 2038.
So, using time_t to store the cookie expiration date won't do. Use the
BDateTime class instead.
This makes goodsearch.com login work again (#10460).
Adjust Database{Location} to only attempt to create a mimetype when
actually necessary, and fail otherwise if a writable version doesn't yet
exist. Correspondingly, adjust callers such as
DatabaseLocation::DeleteAttribute(). Fixes a problem where a caller asking
to perform a mimeset could fail early due to SetSupportedTypes() attempting
to update the read-only mime database entry supplied by a package, and
consequently most of the mimeset operations would be skipped.
* Fix incorrect cpu vendor name mapping
* Add additional CPU architectures
* Add additional CPU vendors
* Rework PowerPC arch_system_info passing
PVR back for cpu model
* Set max cpu to 1 for PPC until atomic functions are finished
* We have atomic functions inline in the kernel and assembly
code in libroot post-scheduler merge... isn't that a lot of
duplication?
Add boot loader debug menu option "Save syslog from previous session
during boot". If enabled (defaults to true), the previous session's
debug syslog data is copy to a separate buffer and passed to the
kernel, which writes it back to the file /var/log/previous_syslog.
As long as Haiku still boots, this should now be the most convenient way
to retrieve the output from a kernel crash.

Rebased against current sources.
* The BIOS video mode sometimes reports a scaled mode instead of the
physical panel dimensions. Get the data from the VBT table as well, and
use it if the reported resolution is bigger.
* On first boot, force the panel native mode so the user doesn't have to
set it manually.
* Only allow a single head at a time on i855gm, as the card can't drive
both heads at the same time.
* Detect when a new requested mode is the same as the current one, and
skip modesetting in that case. Avoids screen flickering when changing
workspaces.
* Fix some cases of misdetecting which pipes to enable
Previous implementation based on the actual load of each core and share
each thread has in that load turned up to be very problematic when
balancing load on very heavily loaded systems (i.e. more threads
consuming all available CPU time than there is logical CPUs).
The new approach is to estimate how much load would a thread produce
if it had all CPU time only for itself. Summing such load estimations
of each thread assigned to a given core we get a rank that contains
much more information than just simple actual core load.
* Previously PE binaries would trigger the "incorrectly
executable" dialog. Now we get a special message for
B_LEGACY_EXECUTABLE and B_UNKNOWN_EXECUTABLE
* Legacy at the moment is a R3 x86 PE binary. This could
be extended to gcc2 binaries someday far, far, down the
road though
* The check for legacy is based on a PE flag I see
set on every R3 binary (that isn't set on dos ones)
* Unknown is something we know *is* an executable, but
can't do anything with (such as an MSDOS or Windows
application)
* No performance drops as we do the PE scan last
* Tested on x86 and x86_gcc2
This field forces kernel to track each CPU load all the time. It is not
a problem with the current scheduler on a multicore systems, but on
single core machnies or with any other future scheduler this field may
become just an unnecessary burden. It isn't difficult for an application
to compute CPU load by itself when it needs it.
The icon is meant as an addition to or replacement of the label. Icon
bitmaps for various states of the control (off, on, partially on, each
enabled or disabled, plus up to 125 custom states) can be set
individually via SetIconBitmap() (getter IconBitmap()).
The convenience method SetIcon() can be used to set the bitmaps for the
standard states from a single bitmap; it also supports cropping the
icon to its non-transparent area. Code borrowed from BIconButton.
atomic_{get, set}64() are problematic on architectures without 64 bit
compare and swap.
Also, using sequential lock instead of atomic access ensures that
any reads from cpu_ent::active_time won't require any writes to shared
memory.
The client code is not supposed to change the topology info.
It would be also nice if cpu_topology_node::children was an array of
pointers to const but that would require several const_casts in the
topology tree generation code so it's probably not worth it.
Apparently, reading from dr3 is slower than reading from memory
with cache hit.
Also, depending on hypervisor configuration, accessing dr3 may cause
a VM exit (and, at least on kvm, it does), what makes it much slower
than a memory access even when there is a cache miss.
Add get_safemode_option_early() and get_safemode_boolean_early() to get
safemode options before the kernel heap has been initialized. They use a
simplified parser.
* VMTranslationMap:
- Add DebugPrintMappingInfo(): Given a virtual address it is supposed
to print the paging structure information for that address. To be
implemented by derived classes.
- Add DebugGetReverseMappingInfo(): Given a physical addresss it is
supposed to find all virtual addresses mapped to it. To be
implemented by derived classes.
* X86VMTranslationMapPAE: Implement the new methods
DebugPrintMappingInfo() and DebugGetReverseMappingInfo().
* Add KDL command "mapping". It supports both virtual address lookups
and reverse lookups.
__flatten_process_args() does now have the executable path as an
additional (optional) parameter. If specified, the function will read
the file's SYS:ENV attribute (if set) and use its value to modified the
environment it is preparing for the new process. Currently supported
attribute values are strings consisting of "<var>=<value>" substrings
separated by "\0" (backslash zero), with '\' being used as an escape
character. The environment will be altered to contain the specified
"<var>=<value>" elements, replacing a preexisting <var> element (if
any).
A possible use case would be setting a SYS:ENV attribute with value
"DISABLE_ASLR=1" on an executable that needs ASLR disabled.
* VMAddressSpace: Add randomizingEnabled property.
* VMUserAddressSpace: Randomize addresses only when randomizingEnabled
property is set.
* create_team_arg(): Check, if the team's environment contains
"DISABLE_ASLR=1". Set the team's address space property
randomizingEnabled accordingly in load_image_internal() and
exec_team().
* Create new interface for cpuidle modules (similar to the cpufreq
interface)
* Generic cpuidle module is no longer needed
* Fix and update Intel C-State module
* Increase FIFO buffer capacity from 32 to 64 KiB and the FIFO atomic
write size ({BUF_SIZE}) from 512 bytes to 4 KiB (both like Linux).
* Fix *pathconf(..., _PC_PIPE_BUF). It was returning 4 KiB although the
implemented atomic write size was 512 bytes only. Now both *pathconf()
and the FIFO implementation refer to the same constant.
A DatabaseLocation is passed to the constructor and used to verify that
the sniffed MIME type is installed instead of BMimeType::IsInstalled().
This makes the add-on independent of the default MIME DB.
Most of the hooks don't strictly need a non-empty implementation. The
defaults now simply throw exceptions in those that do. This allows the
class to be instantiated, which is useful when a BPackageManager is only
used for finding packages.
Require the installation interface and the user interaction handle to
be passed to the constructor. Formerly, derived classes set them
manually in their constructors. This makes using the class without
having to subclass it possible.
It's a browser for the system package content, where entries can be
selected to blacklist them. The selected entries are removed from the
packagefs instance in the boot loader, so that e.g. selected drivers
won't be picked up. The paths are also added to the safe mode driver
settings and will be interpreted when the system packagefs instance is
mounted by the kernel.
* Make Menu and MenuItem polymorphic.
* MenuItem:
- Make SetMarked() virtual, so it can be overridden.
- Add SetSubmenu() and Supermenu().
- Delete the submenu in the destructor.
* Menu:
- Add Entered()/Exited() hooks. They frame the time the user navigates
the menu or any of its submenus. The hooks allow for subclasses
populating their item list dynamically.
- Add SortItems().
* Update boot loader menu copyright text to include 2013, now that it is
over soon. :-)
In each installation location, it is now possible to create a settings
file "packages" that allows to blacklist entries contained in packages.
The format is:
Package <package name> {
EntryBlacklist {
<entry path>
...
}
}
...
<package name> is the base name (no version) of the respective package
(e.g. "haiku"), <entry path> is an installation location relative path
(e.g. "add-ons/Translators/FooTranslator").
Blacklisted entries will be ignored by packagefs, i.e. they won't appear
in the file system. This addresses the issue that it may be necessary to
remove a problematic file (e.g. driver, add-on, or library), which would
otherwise require editing the containing package file.
The settings file is not not "live". Changes take effect only after
reboot (respectively when remounting the concerned packagefs volume).
* get_architectures() returns the primary and the secondary
architectures in one array. That turned out to be convenient.
* Add C++ versions for get[_secondary]_architectures(), returning a
BStringList.
* Add get_architecture(), get_primary_architecture(),
get_secondary_architectures(), guess_architecture_for_path() to get
the caller's architecture, the primary architecture, all secondary
architectures, or the architecture associated with a specified path
respectively.
* Rename the find_path*() functions to find_path*_etc() and add an
optional architecture parameter. Add simplified find_path*()
functions.
* BPathFinder: Add FindPath[s]() versions with an architecture
parameter.
By passing the window pointer to ScreenSaverRunner contructor and using that
to lock the window when drawing instead of getting the window from the
Window() method of the view. This is safer.
Start the screensaver in the window thread instead of the runner
thread so that there is no lock contention for the window lock in
the runner thread when the saver starts.
The view that gets drawn into is assumed to have been prepared before
being passed to the runner thread, and this assumption has been made
true for the screensaver preview and screen_blanker apps.
Eliminate fHasStarted and the corresponding HasStarted() method in
ScreenSaverRunner as they are no longer needed.
Drawing still happens in the runner thread, and still needs to lock
the window thread potentially causing contention, yet, there
is a timeout here so the contention won't freeze the screensaver window,
only delay drawing the screensaver.
Drawing could be moved to the window thread via message passing to avoid
lock contention with the window but this would defeat a big part of the
purpose of having a separate rendering thread.
This fixes#10125 and #4260
* pin idle threads to their specific CPUs

* scheduler_set_thread_priority() reworked

* Thread::scheduler_lock protects thread state, priority, etc.
* sThreadCreationLock protects thread creation and removal and list of

* Scheduler uses its own internal locking.
* The UNMAP command is theoretically much faster, as it can get many block
ranges instead of just a single range.
* Furthermore, the ATA TRIM command resembles it much better.
* Therefore, fs_trim_data now gets an array of ranges, and we use SCSI UNMAP
to trim.
* Updated BFS code to collect array ranges to fully support the new
fs_trim_data possibilities.
* No need for the atomically changed variables to be declared as
volatile.
* Drop support for atomically getting and setting unaligned data.
* Introduce atomic_get_and_set[64]() which works the same as
atomic_set[64]() used to. atomic_set[64]() does not return the
previous value anymore.
The new functions are meant to replace many uses of find_directory():
* find_paths() is supposed to be used when the directories of a certain
kind in all installation directories are needed (e.g. font
directories, add-on directory, etc.). Using this API makes code
robust wrt addition or removal of installation locations.
* find_path() is supposed to be used when files/directories associated
with a loaded program, library, or add-on need to be found (e.g. data
files or global settings).
* find_path_for_path() is similar to find_path(), but it starts from a
given path instead of an image.
The flag main purpose is to avoid race conditions between event handler
and cancel_timer(). However, cancel_timer() is safe even without
using gSchedulerLock.
If the event is scheduled to happen on other CPU than the CPU that
invokes cancel_timer() then cancel_timer() either disables the event
before its handler starts executing or waits until the event handler
is done.
If the event is scheduled on the same CPU that calls cancel_timer()
then, since cancel_timer() disables interrupts, the event is either
executed before cancel_timer() or when the timer interrupt handler
starts running the event is already disabled.
* Replace ports list mutex with R/W-lock.
* Move team port list protection to separate array of mutexes.
Relieve contention on sPortsLock by removing Team::port_list from its
protected items. With this, set_port_owner() only needs to acquire the
sPortsLock for reading.
* Add another hash table holding the ports by name. Used by find_port()
so it doesn't have to iterate over the list anymore.
* Use slab-based memory allocator for port messages. sPortQuotaLock was
acquired on every message send or receive and was thus another point
of contention. The lock is not necessary anymore.
* Lock for port hashes and Port::lock are no longer locked in a nested
fashion to reduce chances of blocking other threads.
* Make operations concurrency-safe by adding an atomically accessed
Port::state which provides linearization points to port creation and
deletion. Both operations are now divided into logical and physical
parts, the logical part just updating the state and the physical part
adding/remove it to/from the port hash and team port list.
* set_port_owner() is the only remaining function which still locks
Port::lock and one or two of sTeamListLock[] in a nested fashion.
Since it needs to move the port from one team list to another and
change Port::owner, there's no way around.
* Ports are now reference counted to make accesses to already-deleted
ports safe.
* Should fix#8007.
When removing a string attribute, decrement the referenced string's
usage count in the string cache. This fixes the potentially incorrect
usage counts in update mode. Not a serious problem, but it could lead
to only singly (or no longer) used strings to be written to the string
subsection instead of encoding them inline and thus to slightly greater
file sizes.
When joining with a single range, firstRange would be the same as
RangeAt(endIndex - 1) and we would overwrite its offset field before
getting its end offset, thus possibly resulting in a wrong joined range
size.
