appear: when freeing a modified page, it wouldn't have a cache
anymore, but set_page_state_nolock() depended on it.
* To work around this, I added a vm_page_free() function, which the
caches that free modified pages have to call (but others may, too).
It will correctly maintain the sModifiedTemporaryPages counter in case
the cache has already been removed.

* ACPI is evaluated first as it also handles things like multi core or hyper threading setups
* Removed other (disabled) hyper threading code per the notes in the corresponding ToDo
* Limit the detected CPU count to 2 for now as I wasn't able to get it working in either emulation nor real hardware with more than 2 CPUs
* Added a reserved byte to the mp_config_table struct, it worked only by luck as the compiler did padding there to get to the same size
I can now boot my Core 2 Quad with two out of four processors active :-)

passes that information on to the kernel. This should fix wrong bytes per row with
certain resolutions and graphics cards.
* The boot loader now recognizes 15 bit modes that are advertised as 16 bit modes.
This should fix wrong colors in 16 bit modes on some cards.
* Reenabled setting MTRR for VESA mode - don't remember why I disabled it, but it
works fine on my test machines.

and will put that into the syslog buffer.
* dump_block() now also prints an offset.

device geometry.
* If SetTo() reports no media, and GetGeometry() fails, the device geometry
is now reset as well.
* KDiskDeviceManager::_ScanPartition() no longer unmarks the partition busy;
this is now done by the caller, and done independently from the outcome of
_ScanPartition(). This also fixes the problem that devices with no media
were never marked unbusy (and thus were ignored subsequently).

was inserted and uninitialize when ejected.
* Turned the disk device media checker from a kernel daemon into a thread.

that can be used by file systems.
* Changed the way the file cache works: instead of reading/writing to the
underlying device directly, it can now be used for any data source, ie.
also network file systems.
* As a result, the former pages_io() moved to the VFS layer, and can now be
called by a file system via {read|write}_file_io_vec_pages() (naming
suggestions are always welcomed :-)). It now gets an FD, and uses that to
communicate with the device (via its fs_{read|write}_pages() hooks).
* The file_cache_{read|write}() functions must now be called without holding
an I/O relevant file system lock. That allows the file cache to prepare the
pages without colliding with the page writer, IOW the "mayBlock" flag can
go into the attic again (yay!).
* This also results in a much better performance when the system does I/O and
is low on memory, as the page writer can now finally write back some pages,
and that even without maxing out the CPU :)
* The API changes put slightly more burden on the fs_{read|write}_pages()
hooks, but in combination with the file_map it's still pretty straight
forward. It just will have to dispatch the call to the underlying device
directly, usually it will just call its fs_{read|write}_pages() hooks
via the above mentioned calls.
* Ported BFS and FAT to the new API, the latter has not been tested, though.
* Also ported the API changes to the fs_shell. I also completely removed its
file cache level page handling - the downside is that device access is no
longer cached (ie. depends on the host OS now), the upside is that the code
is greatly simplified.

K{Disk,File,Partitioning}System writing methods. It is now required
that the caller has marked the concerned partitions busy, hence we can
(read-)access them without needing a lock. The module interfaces will
will be changed to take advantage of the fact as well. The methods take a
disk_job_id instead of a KDiskDeviceJob* now, though I haven't quite
decided, whether we need it at all or just want to add a special
handling in the cases where notifications during the operation make
sense.
* Reimplemented the disk device write support syscalls (save
_user_move_partition() for which other module hooks are needed). They
call the KDiskSystem methods, now.

synchronous scanning is supported.
* Removed the disk device job support from the disk device manager.
* K{Disk,File,Partitioning}System:
- Remove querying and validation methods.
- Commented out the modification methods until their fate is decided.
* Removed obsolete _user_get_partitionable_spaces().

* Adjusted the prototypes of the disk device modification syscalls.
Commented out their implementations for the time -- they'll mostly
have to be rewritten completely.
* Implemented the userland disk device jobs.

We will use SRP (supervisor root pointer) register to hold the current thread pointer.
Its use by the pmmu is optional and I don't plan on using it.

next/prev link order - that messed up the DoublyLinkedListCLink adapter.
* Since it's more likely that someone messes with the C version, the C++ version
now uses the same order than that one.
* This fixes a bug when TCP's BufferQueue tried to iterate over a list, messing
up its integrity.

vm_page_reserve_pages() and vm_page_allocate_page() will now steal pages from
the inactive queue as needed.
* We currently never steal active pages anymore, but this might need to be
revised later (therefore, the page scanner never waits anymore, but uses
mutex_trylock() to lock a cache).
* The page scanner and writer now both run at normal priority - let's see how
that will work out.
* Introduced an inactive queue.
* Instead of shuffling pages around in the queue (and therefore destroying LRU)
the page stealing mechanism now uses a marker page to be able to release the
page lock without losing its position in the queue.
* The page writer now always grabs the whole release count of the semaphore, so
that there won't be a huge backlog to catch up with.
* vm_page_num_free_pages() now also includes the inactive queue as well as the
reserved pages (they are no longer regarded as free pages).
* Added a insert_page_after() function that inserts a page after another one,
needed by the marker code.
* clear_page() now gets a vm_page instead of a physical address which simplified
some code.
* Removed superfluous initialization of the queues (if those aren't zeroed on
start, we would have serious problems, anyway).
* Removed old and unimplemented dump_free_page_table() ("free_pages") KDL
command.
git-svn-id: file:///srv/svn/repos/haiku/haiku/trunk@22506 a95241bf-73f2-0310-859d-f6bbb57e9c96
it intended to. That resulted in more writable pages where you wouldn't want
them (ie. allowing the area to change pages in lower caches).
* We were losing modified pages: vm_unmap_pages() sometimes has to preserve
the modified flag (eg. when called from page fault).
* Both of these were responsible that stealing active pages would crash
applications - even if less likely, this could also have happened when
stealing inactive pages. Therefore, I've activated stealing active pages
again.
* The page writer now pushes the pages of busy vnodes to the end of the queue,
so that it won't pick them up again too soon (the vnode destruction would
be in the process of writing those pages back, anyway).
* The page thief now triggers the page writer to run once it has to steal
active pages. This might be a bit too aggressive, though.
git-svn-id: file:///srv/svn/repos/haiku/haiku/trunk@22495 a95241bf-73f2-0310-859d-f6bbb57e9c96
busy vnodes.
* dir_create_entry_ref() used get_vnode() incorrectly (and could therefore
potentially prevent a file system from doing proper locking when called
from the kernel).
* The vnode_store now uses this for its acquire_unreferenced_ref()
implementation (and therefore for the page writer).
* read_into_cache() and write_to_cache() were still marked inline.
* The system will now wait 10 secs for a busy vnode before returning an error.
* It will also no longer panic in that case.
git-svn-id: file:///srv/svn/repos/haiku/haiku/trunk@22485 a95241bf-73f2-0310-859d-f6bbb57e9c96
additional partition_data* child parameter now.
* _user_get_partitionable_spaces() doesn't need to copy the buffer into
the kernel, since it is no input parameter. It also copies back the
actual partitionable spaces count on error, now -- B_BUFFER_OVERFLOW
is returned when the buffer was too small, but then the count must be
returned too.
* Fixed several instances of syscall implementations that unloaded a disk
system, although they didn't load it in the first place. This screwed
up the load count with undesirable consequences.
* _user_create_child_partition() would set the size to the supplied
offset.
* Fixed broken loop in KPhysicalPartition::CreateShadowPartition().
* KPartition::RemoveChild() notified the listeners about the wrong
event.
* Intel partitioning module:
- The *_get_partitionable_spaces() correctly return B_BUFFER_OVERFLOW
now, if the supplied buffer is too small.
- Implemented a part of pm_shadow_changed(), which creates and updates
the PartitionMap, so that the validate_*() hooks have a chance to
work at all.

* his has to be used by the page writer to make sure the vnode is still valid.
* This should have been the final nail on the Luposian bug - I haven't tested
it yet, but we'll certainly see :-)

interfere with the page thief, we always need to have reserved a page for
this upfront. I introduced a function to the vm_translation_map layer that
estimates how much pages a mapping might need at maximum. All functions that
map a page now call this and reserve the needed pages upfront.
It might not be a nice solution, but it works.
* The page thief could run into a panic when trying to call vm_cache_release_ref()
on a non-existing (NULL) cache.
* Also, it will now ignore wired active pages.
* There is still a race condition between the page writer and the vnode
destruction - writing a page back needs a valid vnode, but that might just
have been deleted.

system initialize() hooks. It's often the only info about the
partition one needs and thus locking the partition just to get it is
no longer necessary.
* intel partitioning system:
- Removed passing around block sizes. We require 512 byte sectors
anyway. In fact using the parent partition's block size was even
wrong.
- Simplified writing the partition map sector.
- Simplified and corrected the partition map initialization.
- We don't fail identifying a partition anymore, if the partition map
contains no partitions. We would never identify a freshly
initialized partition map before.
- Made pm_identify() more intelligent: It determines the priority to
return depending on whether the partition is the device itself and
whether we have recognized child partitions.
