* Removed vm_page, vm_area, vm_cache, and vm_address_space typedefs; it's
cleaner this way, and the actual types are only used in C++ files now,
anyway.
* And that caused changes in many files...
* Made commpage.h self-containing.
* Minor cleanup.

Can be enabled by defining KERNEL_BREAKPOINTS in arch/user_debugger.h
and will provide the arch_{set,clear}_kernel_{break,watch}point()
function. Hitting a break-/watchpoint will throw the thread into KDL.
* Finally added a comment, what's the point of
i386_reinit_user_debug_after_context_switch(), since I wonder every
time I see it. Should be optimized aways soon.

and cancels an eventually set alarm. Both things weren't done before...

* 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).

the new cpuid stuff was apparently exacerbating an existing problem where various bits of low level
cpu code (specifically get_current_cpu) weren't really initialized before being used. Changed the
order to set up a fake set of threads to point each cpu at really early in boot to make sure that at
all points in code it can get the current 'thread' and thus the current cpu.
A probably better solution would be to have dr3 point to the current cpu which would then point to the
current thread, but that has a race condition that would require an int disable, 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.

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.

arch dependent code (they will be removed as soon as someone else
asks for these interrupt lines).
* Added an interrupt driven keyboard handler to the kernel that uses
this technique. As a result, you can now press F12 to enter the kernel
debugger before the input_server has been started, and Control-Alt-Delete
should reboot the system (actually I did not test the latter yet).

the device manager is initialized. For x86 it does nothing, but
for PPC it searches for a supported interrupt controller and
remembers it for later use.
arch_int_{enable,disable}_io_interrupt() are implemented as
well as handling of external exceptions (aka as I/O interrupts).
We'll see later how well that works.

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.

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

* 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.

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.

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.

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. :-/

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.

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.

bus, and time base frequency) in the PPC boot loader, and propagate
them to the kernel via kernel_args.
* Now we use the correct time base frequency for timer calculations.
* Implemented PPC specific system info stuff. Added a few PPC CPU
types to <OS.h>.

remapping stuff into separate functions and made them available to
others.
* Remap the exception handler space in arch_int_init_post_vm() into the
kernel address space (same issue as with the page table).
git-svn-id: file:///srv/svn/repos/haiku/haiku/trunk@15783 a95241bf-73f2-0310-859d-f6bbb57e9c96
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.
git-svn-id: file:///srv/svn/repos/haiku/haiku/trunk@15780 a95241bf-73f2-0310-859d-f6bbb57e9c96
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.

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.

* new arch_cpu_user_TLB_invalidate() that now does what arch_cpu_global_TLB_invalidate()
did before.

kernel.
* some cleanups.

currently both rely on.

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).
