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).

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.

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.

* 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).
git-svn-id: file:///srv/svn/repos/haiku/trunk/current@10384 a95241bf-73f2-0310-859d-f6bbb57e9c96
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).

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.

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.
