Axel Dörfler ddb7d0b6a6 Implemented force unmounting - by passing the "-f" option to "unmount" you
can now safely unmount volumes that are still in use by some applications.
Minor fixes to the FD disconnection implementation:
* put_fd() checked the condition for being able to disconnect a descriptor
  incorrectly (causing the FD to never be disconnected).
* remove_fd() would hand out disconnected descriptors (but should have
  returned NULL for them).

Ingo Weinhold 7afc16f059 * Fixed a bug regarding storing/restoring FPSCR in the interrupt
code. The stack pointer was not adjusted, hence we were
  overwriting the previous register value. But it looks like I
  missed to check in the arch_cpu.h with the iframe structure
  including the floating point registers anyway.
* Backported the ELF PPC relocation code from the boot loader to
  the kernel.
* Fixed the PPC version of arch_thread_switch_kstack_and_call().
  Apparently the signature had changed, but the assembly
  implementation was not adjusted accordingly.
* sc prints more registers now (LR, CR, CTR, XER,...).
* Fixed several occurences of not-working fault handlers.
  Apparently the compiler realized, that the "error" label was
  never jumped to (by the code it knew), and optimized the
  respective code away. Now we use a trick to make it think the
  error label might actually be jumped to. I wonder whether the
  x86 version has the same problem when being compiled with GCC4.
* Adopted the x86 page fault handling interrupt code.

Stephan Aßmus 55f6067fcd * I thought it was a good idea to Flush() the server link
in all drawing methods in case the parent window was
  not in a "transaction" (fInTransaction). For ordinary
  updates, nothing has changed, but if you call drawing
  methods outside of an update, they will happen "immediately"
  rather than when the link is sporadically full and auto
  flushes. The effect is that the cursor in Terminal blinks
  reliably, the selection in BTextViews follows the mouse
  right on the spot (and so on). BWindow::BeginViewTransaction()
  and EndViewTransaction() now have a meaning in Haiku too.

Axel Dörfler ba61df6d0b Beginnings of APM support: we now connect to the APM BIOS in 32 bit protected mode.
We don't do anything with it yet, though, so the BIOS will probably ignore us since
we are supposed to poll for events.

Ingo Weinhold 6c678c57c7 * The exception vector offset is now also part of the iframe.
* Cloned iframe stack management from x86.
* Reimplemented arch_thread_{get,set}_current_thread(). The
  thread structure is stored in SPRG2. It is set to NULL in
  arch_cpu_preboot_init(), now. A non-null current thread
  causes all kinds of undesired behavior in early boot code.
* We establish the address space mappings we know from the
  Open Firmware as areas. At least those in kernel address
  space. The ones in userland address space are tougher.
  Fortunately on my Mac mini there aren't any save the
  boot_loader stack, which is not needed any longer anyway.
* Added stack trace support to the kernel debugger. Mostly
  cloned and adjusted the x86 code. Some bits are still
  missing, like stack traces for other threads.

Ingo Weinhold 7176dd57e5 Reworked the exception handling code. The former one ran into the
void after turning off BAT for the segment containing itself.
The monster macro for the exception vector code was not really
elegant besides being too long for the 32 byte performance
monitor exception slot. Furthermore wasting three of the SPRG*
registers as cheap scratch memory wasn't that nice either.

We now have a three-step approach: The exception vectors
themselves contain only five instructions which branch to common
code at the beginning of the same physical page. That one sets
up BAT for itself, turns address translation back on and jumps
into the kernel. There we turn off BAT again, dump an iframe,
and enter the actual exception handler (/dispatcher). Upon return
the registers are restored from the iframe and we get back to the
place where the exception occurred.

Stephan Aßmus 7afc7c5074 ServerFont:
* fixed weird pointer conversion in SetStyle()
* fixed a potential mix up in operator=() in case the
  other ServerFont has fStyle == NULL

ServerWindow:
* the WindowLayer fTopLayer cannot be deleted by
  client request, just for safety reasons
* the link is flushed if there is no drawing engine,
  but this case is theoretical only
* deleting the ServerWindow object syncs with the
  client, so that when BBitmaps are deleted, they
  can be sure there are no pending messages (which
  would be executed in a nother thread)
* there is no timeout anymore when sending messages
  to the client, which made absolutely no sense

AGGTextRenderer:
* renamed fFontManager to fFontCache, because that's
  what it really is
* fLastFamilyAndStyle defaulted to the system plain
  font and therefor that font was never loaded when
  the font never changed meanwhile

DrawingMode:
* I'm not quite sure but I think there was the
  potential of a division by zero, at least I
  had crashes with "divide error"

HWInterface:
* fix update when the cursor shape changed in
  double buffered mode
 
ViewLayer:
* since the top layer is never really deleted
  before its time has come, it is not necessary
  to set it to NULL in the ViewLayer destructor

ViewLayer/WindowLayer:
* added a function to collect the view tokens
  that are affected by an update session

EventDispatcher:
* use the importance of the message for the timeout
  in _SendMessage()
* drop mouse moved events in the server if we're
  lagging behind more than 5 ms (Axel, maybe review)

View:
* there were some problems with the locking
  of the BWindow looper in RemoveSelf(), since
  this is called from the window destructor,
  also of BWindows from BBitmaps, which have
  never been run (this might need review), at
  least I seem to have solved the crashing
  problems introduced by actually deleting the
  view hirarchy in the BWindow destructor
* fixed _Draw() for being used non-recursively,
  temporarily disabled DrawAfterChildren, which
  didn't work yet anyways (because views cannot
  draw over children in the server yet)

Window:
* small cleanup when deleting shortcuts
* sync with the server when having send
  AS_DELETE_WINDOW (see ServerWindow above)
* fixed locking in Begin/EndViewTransaction()
* removed folding of _UPDATE_ messages, since
  there is only one ever in the queue
* set the fInTransaction flag during an update,
  I plan to use this in BView later to
  flush the link when drawing outside of an
  update
* BView::_Draw() is now called by view token,
  this gives the next leap forward in speed,
  the overhead because of drawing clean views
  was considerable

Ingo Weinhold 262e0a636b We use the same strategy for computing the system time as on x86 now.
The time base conversion factor is the 32 bit value
  2^32 * 1000000 / time base frequency,
so the system time can be computed by
  system time = time base * conversion factor / 2^32.
The expression in system_time() looks more complicated now, but is
actually much faster (factor 2.5 on my Mac mini). I'm positively
surprised, how good the assembly looks, that GCC 4 generates. There's
not that much potential for optimization by hand-coding the function.

Ingo Weinhold 3b36b30fef * Made vm_alloc_virtual_from_kernel_args() available to other kernel
parts, too. Fixed a potential overflow.
* The generic physical page mapper reserves the virtual address range
  for the IO space now, so that noone can interfere until an area has
  been created. The location of the IO space is no longer fixed; it
  didn't look to me like it was necessary for x86, and we definitely
  need to be flexible for PPC.

Stephan Aßmus 34a9556215 Made our glue code compatible to BeOS again. IOW executables compiled for Haiku will
now run under BeOS as well (as long as they don't use any functions that are not
available under R5).
The solution is a bit messy, but we have to live with it :-)
The runtime loader now patches the __gRuntimeLoader symbol in libroot.so to point
to its exported structure instead of passing it to the init functions as an
argument.

Ingo Weinhold e55e1a0e66 Implemented the PPC specific RTC support. We search for an "rtc"
device in the Open Firmware implementation of boot loader and
pass its path to the kernel, where it's opened and used for
getting/setting the real time. The expensive atomic_*64() on PPC
32-bit make things a bit more complicated. Moreover, missing
64 bit multiplication and division instructions won't really
allow system_time() to be anywhere near as fast as on x86. :-/

Ingo Weinhold 09bb4e9ac5 The real_time_data structure contains an architecture specific
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.

Ingo Weinhold 7afa713acb Reorganized the boot platform dependencies in the kernel a bit.
Basically the architecture specific code is now responsible to
init and make use of the platform specific code, now. The reason
being that we have only one kernel per platform and thus cannot
decide at compile time, which platform to use (if any).
The PPC implementation features an abstract base class PPCPlatform
(implemented for all supported platforms) through which platform
support is provided.

Ingo Weinhold a1bcf2c880 * The OF memory management callback is now set in arch_mmu_init().
According to the spec we need to set it before taking over the MMU,
  but we can't call it before arch_mmu_init(), since we need the OF
  to allocate the page table. So we do it after we have allocated
  the new page table.
* Added PPC specific kernel_args: The virtual address ranges we want
  to keep in the kernel. We fill that in with the translations we
  find when initializing the MMU stuff. We remove the memory the
  boot loader occupies from those. Besides the stack for the boot
  loader only the OF stuff remains.
* arch_mmu_allocate() now starts to search at KERNEL_BASE for a free
  virtual address when no particular address is requested. This saves
  us further trouble in the kernel, since those allocations would
  need to be remapped otherwise.

Alexander G.M. Smith deb238df7d Tried to get MDR to compile under Zeta RC3 but to no avail, with lots of
brick wall collisions.  Along the way I found a few defines that no longer
exist in Haiku - changed B_BEOS_VERSION_DANO to use Haiku versions (anyone
rebuilding under Dano might want to undo it).  By the way, the BeOS version
number define system might be worth using, since it's a numerical compare
rather than #if defined(V1) || defined (V2) || defined (V3) and so on.

What sort of errors?  Besides needing libzeta.so for some things, the
networking compatibility compile doesn't work (libbind and all that).

the fact that I couldn't find ptesync in an otherwise more complete
  documentation I downloaded yesterday made me suspicious.
* arch_cpu_global_TLB_invalidate() uses tlbia now. The instruction is
  optional, but so is tlbie (how I understood it is that both exist,
  when the architecture implementation has a TLB). And the former loop
  looked just scary.
* Implemented arch_cpu_user_TLB_invalidate(). It does just the same as
  arch_cpu_global_TLB_invalidate().
* Some changes with respect to synchronization required on page table
  and segment register updates.
* Some more minor renaming. Pulled a new function
  remove_page_table_entry() out of unmap_tmap().
* In arch_vm_translation_map_init_post_area() we do now remap the page
  table into the kernel address space, if it was without before. The
  page table might actually be a good application for BAT, though.

Ingo Weinhold 957a1b17eb * Introduced new build system variables
{HAIKU,HOST,TARGET}_KERNEL_PIC_{CC,LINK}FLAGS which define the
  compiler/linker flags specifying the kind of position independence
  the kernel shall have. For x86 we had and still have -fno-pic, but the
  PPC kernel has -fPIE (position independent executable) now, as we
  need to relocate it.
* The boot loader relocates the kernel now. Mostly copied the relocation
  code from the kernel ELF loader. Almost completely rewrote the PPC
  specific relocation code, though. It's more correct and more complete now
  (some things are still missing though).
* Added boot platform awareness to the kernel. Moved the generic
  Open Firmware code (openfirmware.c/h) from the boot loader to the kernel.
* The kernel PPC serial debug output is sent to the console for the time
  being.
* The PPC boot loader counts the CPUs now and allocates the kernel stacks
  (made OF device iteration a bit more flexible on the way -- the search
  can be restricted to subtree). Furthermore we really enter the kernel...
  (Yay! :-) ... and crash in the first dprintf() (in the atomic_set()
  called by acquire_spinlock()). kprintf() works, though.

Ingo Weinhold c83d9dad1c * platform_allocate_region() has a new boolean parameter "exactAddress"
specifying whether only the exact supplied address is acceptable. If
  false, the address is considered a hint only. It will be picked, if
  available, otherwise a greater address is tried to be acquired, and
  as last resort any address. This feature is only implemented for PPC.
  It is needed since the preferred kernel text base address 0x80000000
  might not be available (and actually isn't on my Mac mini).
* Fixed a bug in the PPC memory management code:
  is_{virtual,physical}_allocated() were checking whether the given
  range was completely contained by an existing range instead of
  checking for intersection. As a consequence we could (and did) allocate
  a range intersecting with already allocated ranges. The kernel segment
  thus overwrote OF memory for instance.
* The ELF loader makes sure that it got both text and data segment of
  the image to be loaded.

The PPC boot loader successfully loads kernel and modules now. Next
comes the hard part, I'm afraid.

Ingo Weinhold 8cfaf4b974 For PPC the read/write (==data) segment is actually executable
(it contains the PLT).

Ingo Weinhold d561d0ad68 Added a mini networking stack to the boot loader. It speaks basic ARP,
IP, and UDP, as well as a home brewn UDP based protocol, "remote disk",
which provides random access to a single remote file/device. The Open
Firmware flavored boot loader automatically initializes the net stack,
searches for a remote disk, and tries to boot from it, if the boot
device is a network device (e.g. when loading the boot loader via
TFTP).

This is quite nice for developing with a two-machine setup, since one
doesn't even need to install Haiku on the test machine anymore, but can
serve it directly from the development machine. When the networking
support in the kernel is working, this method could even be used to
fully boot, not just for loading kernel and initial modules.
