* The boot splash code now checks wether debug screen output is enabled or not
using the above function.
* The boot splash code no longer maps it's own copy of the frame buffer, instead,
it will use the boot item feature as the VESA driver does. Also removed the
lock, as that's not needed at all.
* Renamed splash.cpp to boot_splash.cpp, and boot/splash.h to boot_splash.h
(it's not part of the boot loader, but the kernel).
* Removed dead code from boot_splash.cpp, added license. Replaced license
header in boot_splash.h to a style guide conforming one.

correct "traverse" argument to entry_ref_to_vnode(). This fixes bug
#1932 (symlink refs wouldn't be resolved).

the length of the string actually written into the buffer.
* Adjusted rootfs, devfs, and bfs accordingly. Also adjusted their
read_stat() hooks to return the correct symlink length in st_size.
* Our readlink() does now comply to the standard (and BeOS).
Additionally if the buffer is big enough it is nice to non-conforming
apps and null-terminates it.

could cause pages to be freed that were still in use.

* Added new devfs_driver_added(), and devfs_driver_removed() functions

B_ENTRY_MOVED events in probe.cpp. The watched directory inode numbers

matter if the driver has been unloaded in the mean time or not.
* Offloaded driver reloading to a kernel daemon. Since this is regarded
to happen rarely, a simple event variable will be set when something

do so before opening the device.

* BFS now uses the B_STAT_INTERIM_UPDATE flag for sending updates to actively

* This makes us more compatible with BeOS again; if you only asked for
B_WATCH_STAT, you will now only receive a notification if the file in

* Tracker now uses B_WATCH_INTERIM_STAT to always get all updates (ie.
downloading a file will update its size and modification time in Tracker
periodically during the download).
* Wether "needsTrimming" was true or not has no influence on wether or not
the size index needs to be updated in BFS - only the actual file size is

update the size index when changing the file size, not when the file has
been closed (but that's probably too slow).

* Added team::flags. Currently only used for setting a flag when a team
has exec()ed.
* Some improvements of _user_setpgid():
- It failed incorrectly when the target process was a process group
leader. According to the standard it shall fail when the process is
a session leader. Moving a process group leader to another process
group is fine, even if that leaves the group leaderless.
- Fixed race conditions. We need to recheck the error conditions when
we hold the team spinlock. Otherwise the situation could change
while we allocated the new process group. This was one of the
reasons for bug #1799 -- after the shell fork()'s both parent and
child invoke setpgid() for the child.
- Fixed behavior for pid == pgid. It doesn't necessarily mean that a
new group has to be created.
- Fixed update of target process group orphaned state.
- Squashed TODO: setpgid() on a child is supposed to fail after the
child has exec()ed.

* On changes of (known) driver directories, the device manager will now print
some info to the syslog.
* Fixed republish_driver() I broke recently (would skip every other node), and
moved it to the driver functions section of the devfs.cpp.
* Implemented currently unused unpublish_driver() function that would have to

This eliminates the edge case where the grow thread would not be able to create
a new area because no memory could be allocated for the allocation of the area.
As this case cannot happen anymore, it is also not possible to deadlock in
memalign. Therefore the timeout (which would only have prevented the deadlock
but wouldn't have solved the edge case anyway) has been removed too.

* Implemented automatic syscall restarts:
- A syscall can indicate that it has been interrupted and can be
restarted by setting a respective bit in thread::flags. It can
store parameters it wants to be preserved for the restart in
thread::syscall_restart::parameters. Another thread::flags bit
indicates whether it has been restarted.
- handle_signals() clears the restart flag, if the handled signal
has a handler function installed and SA_RESTART is not set. Another
thread flag (THREAD_FLAGS_DONT_RESTART_SYSCALL) can prevent syscalls
from being restarted, even if they could be (not used yet, but we
might want to use it in resume_thread(), so that we stay
behaviorally compatible with BeOS).
- The architecture specific syscall handler restarts the syscall, if
the restart flag is set. Implemented for x86 only.
- Added some support functions in the private <syscall_restart.h> to
simplify the syscall restart code in the syscalls.
- Adjusted all syscalls that can potentially be restarted accordingly.
- _user_ioctl() sets new thread flag THREAD_FLAGS_IOCTL_SYSCALL while
calling the underlying FS's/driver's hook, so that syscall restarts
can also be supported there.
* thread_at_kernel_exit() invokes handle_signals() in a loop now, as
long as the latter indicates that the thread shall be suspended, so
that after waking up signals received in the meantime will be handled
before the thread returns to userland. Adjusted handle_signals()
accordingly -- when encountering a suspending signal we don't check
for further signals.
* Fixed sigsuspend(): Suspending the thread and rescheduling doesn't
result in the correct behavior. Instead we employ a temporary
condition variable and interruptably wait on it. The POSIX test
suite test passes, now.
* Made the switch_sem[_etc]() behavior on interruption consistent.
Depending on when the signal arrived (before the call or when already
waiting) the first semaphore would or wouldn't be released. Now we
consistently release it.
* Refactored _user_{read,write}[v]() syscalls. Use a common function for
either pair. The iovec version doesn't fail anymore, if anything could
be read/written at all. It also checks whether a complete vector
could be read/written, so that we won't skip data, if the underlying
FS/driver couldn't read/write more ATM.
* Some refactoring in the x86 syscall handler: The int 99 and sysenter
handlers use a common subroutine to avoid code duplication.

The return value of Inode::WaitForRequest() is status_t not bool. So the
method would always fail when it actually succeeded. This affected reads
from pipes which didn't have data. The bug was hidded since VFS code
mostly checks error codes only against < B_OK, so that such a read would
be treated as 0 byte read.

* Also add a few more bin sizes (for 8, 24 and 48 bytes) turns out especially

* Tracing of allocations, reallocations and frees
* Leak checking infrastructure to dump allocations
The leak checking code records the team and thread id when an allocation is
made as well as stores the originally requested size. It also adds the
"allocations" debugger command that can dump all current allocations (usually
a huge list) or filter by either a team or thread id. This way it's easily
possible to find leftover allocations of no more active teams/threads.
Combined with the tracing support one might be able to track down the time and
reason of an allocation and possibly find the corresponding leak if it is one.
Note that kernel heap leak checking has to be enabled manually by setting the
KERNEL_HEAP_LEAK_CHECK define to 1.
git-svn-id: file:///srv/svn/repos/haiku/haiku/trunk@23953 a95241bf-73f2-0310-859d-f6bbb57e9c96
and pages are now kept in lists as well. This allows to return free pages once
a bin does not need them anymore. Partially filled pages are kept in a sorted
linked list so that allocation will always happen on the fullest page - this
favours having full pages and makes it more likely lightly used pages will get
completely empty so they can be returned. Generally this now goes more in the
direction of a slab allocator.
The allocation logic has been extracted, so a heap is now simply attachable to
a region of memory. This allows for multiple heaps and for dynamic growing. In
case the allocator runs out of free pages, an asynchronous growing thread is
notified to create a new area and attach a new heap to it.
By default the kernel heap is now set to 16MB and grows by 8MB each time all
heaps run full.
This should solve quite a few issues, like certain bins just claiming all pages
so that even if there is free space nothing can be allocated. Also it obviously
does aways with filling the heap page by page until it overgrows.
I think this is now a well performing and scalable allocator we can live with
for quite some time. It is well tested under emulation and real hardware and
performs as expected. If problems come up there is an extensive sanity checker
that can be enabled by PARANOID_VALIDATION that covers most aspects of the
allocator. For normal operation this is not necessary though and is therefore
disabled by default.

not use a single static variable to synchronize CPUs at two points. In an
environment where CPUs do not really run concurently (in emulation or with
logical processors) it would be possible for CPUs to get trapped in the first
synchronization while another CPU might just do its thing and change the
sync variable again. These CPUs would then never leave the first loop as the
exit condition has already passed again. The key is to use two different sync
variables like it is done in early kernel initialization. As I didn't manage
to trigger this code though I am not sure if this is gonna work.

using the int 99 syscall method. Otherwise it would remain set e.g.
after _kern_restore_signal_frame() and the next syscall would look like
one returning a 64 bit value.

function has the old behavior. When false, it just calls the scheduler
without any priority adjustment or other stuff.

Not sure if this is the right place, Ingo might want to review that one.
* This fixes unmounting sessions of a multi-session CD, ie. the BeOS CD (it currently panics
when trying to access a device that's not there anymore - for debugging only, of course :-)

already knows this driver.
* This should also allow to have a driver in home/config/add-ons/... overlays
a driver with the same name in system/add-ons/...
* This should also fix bug #1750.

This is not safe when already freed memory is overwritten. But since we also
store the next pointer of the freelist in there, overwriting would break the
freelist and cause a crash in that case. This gives a drastic performance
boost when freelists grow during use and especially when opening and closing
a lot of programs.
* Optimize filling the freed element with 0xdeadbeef by writing 4 bytes at a
time instead of using single byte writes. Works as all our bins have an
element size that is a multiple of four. Put a panic in there just in case
this assumption isn't met for some reason.
