* PowerStatus is now using this API when compiled for Haiku.
* Note, I'm not sure why yet, but running PowerStatus in the background
crashes at least my laptop after some time.

The first use is to let the kernel decide what the preferred syscall mechanism is at boot time and copy the
appropriate user space code there. Can be used for routines the kernel can decide best how to use (memcpy, some
timing routines, etc).

Now two complete tss structures exist within the per-cpu structure. Instead
of having to create a seperate area per each one, initialize them in place.
Also, the old mechanism to getting all of the cpus to get initialized was
subtly broken, but still managed to work. Now, just force all the cpus to
initialize at boot, which makes the actual swapping of esp0 somewhat simpler.

at boot, per cpu, detect the cpu, pull down all the relevant cpuid bits and
save them into the per-cpu structure. Changed most of the code scattered here
and there that reads the cpuid to use a new api, x86_check_feature, which looks
at the saved bits.
Also changed the system_info stuff to read from these bits.
While i was at it, refreshed all the bits to be current.

This should fix bug #553.

turned off - accessing userland memory. Now, arch_thread_enter_userspace() does that
job, and as a result, may also fail.
* dump_thread() now directly prints the info of the current thread when used without
argument (rather than iterating the thread list to look for the current thread).
* If arch_thread_init_tls() fails upon thread creation, the function will now return
an error.

We don't do anything with it yet, though, so the BIOS will probably ignore us since
we are supposed to poll for events.

substructure now (that's the only member actually). The system time
offset is therefore accessed via architecture specific accessor
functions.
Note, that this commit breaks the PPC build. Since I want to rename at
least one file I've already changed, I can't avoid that.

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.

kernel TLBs from being flushed on context switch.
* new arch_cpu_user_TLB_invalidate() that now does what arch_cpu_global_TLB_invalidate()
did before.
* arch_cpu_global_TLB_invalidate() will now flush all TLBs, even those from the
kernel.
* some cleanups.

* The boot loader now checks the CPU for the cpuid and rdtsc features, which we
currently both rely on.
* Removed old and no longer used stage2_priv.h header

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).

No symbols there, yet, though.
git-svn-id: file:///srv/svn/repos/haiku/haiku/trunk@14697 a95241bf-73f2-0310-859d-f6bbb57e9c96
* there is now a "Disable Hyper-Threading" safemode in the boot loader
* the SMP & HT menu items are now added in smp.cpp - and are only added
if the system supports one of them.
* more cleanup to smp_apic.h
* removed cpuid() from the boot loader's support.S - instead, it will now
use the one from the kernel.
* added a very weak HT detection: if the MP config only listed one CPU,
and this CPU supports HT, we enable the other logic processor manually -
as this currently doesn't work, it's disabled, though.

Renamed some structure fields, variables to be clearer and nicer to read.
Removed some unused stuff.

your system, I've also added a "Disable SMP" safemode option. The NO_SMP
define is still there, and will be removed once SMP works flawlessly.
Prints out infos about the interrupt entries in the MP config.

user application performs a division by zero or causes a general
protection fault. For some exceptions (e.g. machine check) I wasn't
quite sure whether they can be caused by user apps at all, so we panic()
in those cases. Wouldn't harm, if someone more knowledgable would check
this, though.
* Removed the unused fault handling stuff, respectively moved the little
that was used into x86/arch_int.c.
git-svn-id: file:///srv/svn/repos/haiku/haiku/trunk@13795 a95241bf-73f2-0310-859d-f6bbb57e9c96
Lots of cleanup:
- moved B_NO_ENABLE_COUNTER flag definition out of int.h to KernelExport.h, as it's
described in the BeBook (although it's probably not really used that often :))
- int.c no longer has any platform dependent code (+ 0x20 on interrupt numbers is gone);
it's now entirely handled in the arch/x86/ section.
- the io_vectors[] is now statically initialized, instead of allocated from the heap
- removed {install|remove}_interrupt_handler(); they weren't that useful, arch_smp_init()
is now calling install_io_interrupt_handler() correctly instead
- introduced a new arch_int.h header file that currently contains NUM_IO_VECTORS only
(though on x86, it also has ARCH_INTERRUPT_BASE == 0x20).
- changed the return type from {install|remove}_io_interrupt_handler() from "long" to
"status_t"
- rearranged and cleaned the PIC initialization code, made the PIC code more prominent
- changed comments that talk about a non existing 8239 (the PIC chip is actually 8259)
- moved arch/x86/interrupts.h to the source directory, as it's not used outside
- added BeOS compatible interrupts_enabled() function, that should replace our
equivalent (and private) are_interrupts_enabled()

for these changes. I was mostly just staring in amazement at the screen
while Axel and Thomas were discussing IA32 internals. A particularly
fascinating moment was when Thomas produced the cause of a bug we had
been trying to track down for hours off the top of his head (of course
iret behaves specially when the NT bit is set :-). His slowness must be
excused though, since he hadn't slept for more then 30 hours. ;-)
The code doesn't wholeheartedly deal with multi-processor machines yet.
Axel will certainly do some cleanup...

flag. Now, it will choose how to set the granularity by evaluating the
limit.
This call was actually already used this way in the kernel, so that
the TLS and TSS segments were much too large (harmless but incorrect).
git-svn-id: file:///srv/svn/repos/haiku/haiku/trunk@12231 a95241bf-73f2-0310-859d-f6bbb57e9c96
Introduced a gBootFrameStack that is used until the first thread structure
is available - this allows stack crawls and useful register dumps during
early startup. Could also be solved differently by making sure there is
always a thread structure installed in %dr3 (ie. the boot thread would
get a static thread structure instead of a static iframe stack only).
This might be a better solution as i386_handle_trap() would no longer
need to check for an existing thread structure.
git-svn-id: file:///srv/svn/repos/haiku/haiku/trunk@12230 a95241bf-73f2-0310-859d-f6bbb57e9c96
Moved ptentry/pdentry to arch_vm_translation_map.c and renamed them to
page_table_entry and page_directory_entry.
Fixed a race condition that happened when memory was remapped (which
can currently happen because lock_memory() does not work correctly, and
there might be other conditions as well, like certain vm_store fault
handlers). Now, page table and directory entries are updated atomically.

with the bit number, not the respective mask).
* Added a small hack to allow single stepping to work in qemu.
Apparently the BS bit in DR6 is not set when the debug exception
is handled. So we always assume that a single step event occurred,
when we couldn't recognize any other event, if the hack is enabled.
git-svn-id: file:///srv/svn/repos/haiku/haiku/trunk@11998 a95241bf-73f2-0310-859d-f6bbb57e9c96
we only have 3 debug registers available for break-/watchpoints.
* Added definitions for debug status register DR6. Reordered DR7 defs to
ascending order. Added definitions for the EFLAGS flags we need.
* Added arch_thread_debug_info structure and related definitions.

needed to get the topmost user iframe. Added i386_get_user_iframe() for
exactly that purpose.
* Added reinitialization of user debugging for the new thread when
switching the context.
git-svn-id: file:///srv/svn/repos/haiku/trunk/current@11523 a95241bf-73f2-0310-859d-f6bbb57e9c96
* Made the parameter for restoring the FPU state const.
git-svn-id: file:///srv/svn/repos/haiku/trunk/current@11522 a95241bf-73f2-0310-859d-f6bbb57e9c96
Introduced new arch_vm.h ("public" arch headers have the arch_ prefix).

of BIOS32, SMBIOS, and DMI services.
Also implemented a get_bios32_service() function which you can use to get
access to that service (ie. for use by the PCI bus manager).
git-svn-id: file:///srv/svn/repos/haiku/trunk/current@10286 a95241bf-73f2-0310-859d-f6bbb57e9c96
from smp_priv.h and stage2_priv.h. Created a new file smp_apic.h which now
contains those definitions.
Made the APIC_xxx register offsets only base offsets (without referencing a
particular variable).
Other small cleanups (i.e. "unsigned int" to uint32).
git-svn-id: file:///srv/svn/repos/haiku/trunk/current@2604 a95241bf-73f2-0310-859d-f6bbb57e9c96
Renamed i386_set_kstack() to i386_set_tss_and_kstack(), because that's what
it does.
Added a new function arch_thread_init_tls() which must be called after
having allocated the TLS area.
Renamed arch_thread_initialize_kthread_stack() to arch_thread_init_kthread_stack()
to be more consistent.
Changed the parameters for arch_thread_enter_uspace() - it now gets a pointer
to the thread structure and takes the user stack pointer from there (which
might also be architectural different).
git-svn-id: file:///srv/svn/repos/haiku/trunk/current@2379 a95241bf-73f2-0310-859d-f6bbb57e9c96
Moved the tss_descriptor structure to descriptor.h, updated it to be a
segment_descriptor structure, and provided inlines for set_tss_descriptor(),
set_segment_descriptor(), set_segment_descriptor_base(), and
clear_segment_descriptor().
Also added defines for the different privilege levels and descriptor types.
Removed the unusused and incorrect TSS definition, introduced new
TSS_BASE_SEGMENT and TLS_BASE_SEGMENT macros.
Removed include of arch/cpu.h in arch_cpu.h.
git-svn-id: file:///srv/svn/repos/haiku/trunk/current@2360 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().
git-svn-id: file:///srv/svn/repos/haiku/trunk/current@1454 a95241bf-73f2-0310-859d-f6bbb57e9c96
Removed dependencies on arch/x86/types.h - this file is not really used
anymore, now. Might prevent compiling on Windows, though.
Replaced "int" with "int32" for the id types.
Removed some stuff from ktypes.h because it didn't belong there.
git-svn-id: file:///srv/svn/repos/haiku/trunk/current@1120 a95241bf-73f2-0310-859d-f6bbb57e9c96
A couple of changes in various interrupt and thread functions and structures.
These make it now possible to change the stack at any time without making the kernel crash. This is needed for calling VESA 3.0 VBE functions through the protected mode interface.
