USE_WALL feature can now be used.
Started implementing a USE_CHECKING_WALLS feature, that has a kernel
daemon running that periodically checks the walls of *all* memory
allocations - does not work yet (because of some initialization order
problems).

team and process group IDs as well.
Added a ToDo item that process groups do only work well as long as
their group leader is still active.
git-svn-id: file:///srv/svn/repos/haiku/trunk/current@9394 a95241bf-73f2-0310-859d-f6bbb57e9c96
ignored completely (so that zero and below become valid).
git-svn-id: file:///srv/svn/repos/haiku/trunk/current@9393 a95241bf-73f2-0310-859d-f6bbb57e9c96
no longer pop %fs from the iframe in that case, too.
When we restore a custom stack, however, we'll now pop %fs from the iframe
as such strange threads may even do their own business with it.
Added some comments.
git-svn-id: file:///srv/svn/repos/haiku/trunk/current@9369 a95241bf-73f2-0310-859d-f6bbb57e9c96
We also should disable interrupts in arch_restore_fork_frame().
git-svn-id: file:///srv/svn/repos/haiku/trunk/current@9368 a95241bf-73f2-0310-859d-f6bbb57e9c96
always copies the arguments and environment arrays.
No need for the "owns_arrays" in team_arg anymore - it now always owns
them.
git-svn-id: file:///srv/svn/repos/haiku/trunk/current@9363 a95241bf-73f2-0310-859d-f6bbb57e9c96
Switched to load_image() instad of using the old team_create_team() to start "init".
git-svn-id: file:///srv/svn/repos/haiku/trunk/current@9361 a95241bf-73f2-0310-859d-f6bbb57e9c96
The path name is now always taken from the provided argument list (except for
_user_exec() which now replaces args[0] with the path argument).
The team_arg structure know nows if it must delete its arguments or not - this
also fixes a memory leak in case team_create_team() failed when invoked from
userland.
load_image() is now also exported for the kernel.
git-svn-id: file:///srv/svn/repos/haiku/trunk/current@9360 a95241bf-73f2-0310-859d-f6bbb57e9c96
process ID (in the current session).
get_death_entry() could call free() with interrupts disabled; now follows
the same mechanism as chosen with the groups (ie. it returns a pointer
to a death_entry to be freed by the calling function).
git-svn-id: file:///srv/svn/repos/haiku/trunk/current@9354 a95241bf-73f2-0310-859d-f6bbb57e9c96
the specified process group (by passing in a negative pid, as in BeOS).
git-svn-id: file:///srv/svn/repos/haiku/trunk/current@9351 a95241bf-73f2-0310-859d-f6bbb57e9c96
- we now have a working process group/session model. Implemented related syscalls
and the kernel backend, some POSIX process functions are now available in the
kernel as well.
- dying teams now monitor their exitus by leaving death_entry structures in
their parent team.
- Implemented wait_for_child() for pid == -1 and pid > 0; IOW waiting for process
groups is missing yet. Hasn't yet been tested intensively.
git-svn-id: file:///srv/svn/repos/haiku/trunk/current@9350 a95241bf-73f2-0310-859d-f6bbb57e9c96
may be renamed):
- B_RELEASE_ALL: the semaphore count is set to 0, all waiting threads are released
(the "count" argument of release_etc_sem() is ignored then)
- B_RELEASE_IF_WAITING_ONLY: the semaphore count is only decreased if there
are any waiting threads; ie. the semaphore is signaled
Together, they will make the pthread_cond_*() functions easy to implement, and
they come in handy at other places, too.
Removed release_threads variable in release_sem_etc(), as it was useless.
git-svn-id: file:///srv/svn/repos/haiku/trunk/current@9330 a95241bf-73f2-0310-859d-f6bbb57e9c96
Also removed syscall for that function (shouldn't have been there in the
first place, anyway).
git-svn-id: file:///srv/svn/repos/haiku/trunk/current@9325 a95241bf-73f2-0310-859d-f6bbb57e9c96
no longer abuse the semaphore mechanism to carry an extra status value,
instead, wait_for_thread() registers a death_entry with the thread that
will be filled upon exit.
Removed delete_sem_etc() as it's no longer of use or available.
git-svn-id: file:///srv/svn/repos/haiku/trunk/current@9323 a95241bf-73f2-0310-859d-f6bbb57e9c96
flag set.
Fixes _user_wait_for_thread() which returned an invalid return code in case
of error.
Some minor cosmetics.
git-svn-id: file:///srv/svn/repos/haiku/trunk/current@9321 a95241bf-73f2-0310-859d-f6bbb57e9c96
not be restored from the iframe; it will be set by the scheduling code.
This is only of concern on SMP machines and could prevent TLS from working.
git-svn-id: file:///srv/svn/repos/haiku/trunk/current@9310 a95241bf-73f2-0310-859d-f6bbb57e9c96
same mechanism as NewOS, ie. using the iframe "stack" pointer (using the
new i386_get_current_iframe() function).
Implemented fork() support functions arch_{store|restore}_fork_frame().
git-svn-id: file:///srv/svn/repos/haiku/trunk/current@9292 a95241bf-73f2-0310-859d-f6bbb57e9c96
know about this specifier, it has to be replaced by B_EXACT_ADDRESS).

team's address space - for internal use, anyway.
Added a ToDo: item to exec_team() to remind me of alarms and signals.
Started implementing fork_team() based on team_create_team() - it's not
completed (or even works), though.
git-svn-id: file:///srv/svn/repos/haiku/trunk/current@9279 a95241bf-73f2-0310-859d-f6bbb57e9c96
must not be accessed without it.
Implemented _get_next_area_info() and _user_get_next_area_info().
git-svn-id: file:///srv/svn/repos/haiku/trunk/current@9277 a95241bf-73f2-0310-859d-f6bbb57e9c96
reference to the address space, so that the calling team deletion function
doesn't have to do this.
delete_address_space() doesn't have to delete any areas anymore, since
at the point it's called, there is no area anymore, anyway: each area
holds a reference to the address space.
git-svn-id: file:///srv/svn/repos/haiku/trunk/current@9276 a95241bf-73f2-0310-859d-f6bbb57e9c96
This actually reflects the only usage of this function anyway, and thus,
fixes the resize_area() function.
git-svn-id: file:///srv/svn/repos/haiku/trunk/current@9265 a95241bf-73f2-0310-859d-f6bbb57e9c96
vm_page no longer keeps a pointer to the vm_cache_ref but to the vm_cache.
This cleans the page handling when having to make an area copy-on-write;
regions belong to vm_cache_ref, pages to vm_cache.
Fixed some return types.
git-svn-id: file:///srv/svn/repos/haiku/trunk/current@9264 a95241bf-73f2-0310-859d-f6bbb57e9c96
It currently checks for temporary caches, but it should really only be used
with regions for anonymous memory.
Fixed some return types.
git-svn-id: file:///srv/svn/repos/haiku/trunk/current@9259 a95241bf-73f2-0310-859d-f6bbb57e9c96
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.

Should be tested and verified more intensively, though.
Moved the creation, initialization, and deletion of the team_arg structure out of
team_create_team(); it's now also used by exec_team().
Renamed kfree_strings_array() to free_strings_array().
Renamed the fields of the team_arg structure to be more in sync with the names used
at other places.
Fixed the routine that copied the environment/arguments into the userland space.
Improved and fixed the user_copy_strings_array() function.
git-svn-id: file:///srv/svn/repos/haiku/trunk/current@9250 a95241bf-73f2-0310-859d-f6bbb57e9c96
of vm_delete_aspace() (which now calls it).
Fixed some return types.
git-svn-id: file:///srv/svn/repos/haiku/trunk/current@9248 a95241bf-73f2-0310-859d-f6bbb57e9c96
file descriptors that have O_CLOEXEC set.
Minor cleanup.
