CreateThreadEvent::DoDPC() missed a reference release to balance the
acquired reference before queuing the DPC, resulting in the
CreateThreadEvent objects being leaked.
This also removes the destructor that tried to cancel the DPC. Since
the class is reference counted and only destroyed when the DPC has
run and released the last reference, this didn't make much sense.
The signal to the team/thread is only actually sent in a deferred
procedure. To ensure that the team/thread stays valid between the DPC
being queued and it actually running, we need to acquire a reference.
Fixes#11390, where the DPC was run after the team was already
destroyed.
* VMArea::AddWaiterIfWired(): Replace the ignoreRange argument by a
flags argument and introduce (currently only) flag
IGNORE_WRITE_WIRED_RANGES. If specified, ranges wired for writing
are ignored. Ignoring just a single specified range doesn't cut it
in vm_soft_fault(), and there aren't any other users of that feature.
* vm_soft_fault(): When having to unmap a page of a lower cache, this
page cannot be wired for writing. So we can safely ignore all
writed-wired ranges, instead of just our own. We even have to do that
in case there's another thread that concurrently tries to write-wire
the same page, since otherwise we'd deadlock waiting for each other.
The thread that is being [un]scheduled already has its time_lock locked
in {stop|continue}_cpu_timers(). When updating the TeamTimeUserTimer,
the team is asked for its cpu time. Team::CPUTime() then iterates the
threads of the team and locks the time_lock of the thread again.
This workaround passes a possibly locked thread through the relevant
functions so Team::CPUTime() can decide whether or not a thread it
iterates needs to be locked or not.
This works around #11032 and its duplicates #11314 and #11344.
when uninitializing a partition or a disk (removing the partition
table), check that all partitions from that table are unmounted, as they
are about to become invalid.
Fixes#8827.
The BOOT_GDT_SEGMENT_COUNT was based on USER_DATA_SEGMENT on both
x86 and x86_64. However, on x86_64 the order of the segments is
different, leading to a too small gBootGDT array. Move the define to
the arch specific headers so they can be setup correctly in either case.
Also add a STATIC_ASSERT() to check that the descriptors fit into the
array.

There were 3 setting files, each an archived BMessage. Now there is only
one with all the data inside.
* Rework the SettingsPane class to save and load settings from a
message, rather than having each panel pick a file path on its own
* Move saving the app filters to the preference app, rather than the
server (so it's done at the same place as other settings)
* Rework loading prefs in the server so the settings message is read
from the file once and all settings are loaded from it.
This turns out to be more changes than I anticipated.
Fixes#9424.
* Move relevant parts up into BFormat so other format classes can use
those
* Adjust BDurationFormat and BTimeUnitFormat for the changes
* Remove the "default" date format, it is better to keep only a default
locale and let applications create B*Formats from it as needed.
* Creating a B*Format without arguments to the constructor now
configures it for the default locale, which allows for easy use in
standard cases (formatting something with the current language and
format)
* Creating a B*Format is potentially an expansive operation, it is
advised to keep the instance around and reuse it whenever possible.
However it must be "refreshed" when the locale changes, for apps which
supports that, since it keeps a copy of the language and formatting
convention, rather than a pointer to the locale as it did before.
* BDate setters don't perform any validation, use with caution.
* BCalendarView setters do perform validation checks, and will adjust
the day so it fits the requested month or year.
* Add tests for the BCalendarView setters.
* There is a little code duplication. This will be moved to BFormat once
the time and datetime formatting is also moved out of BLocale
* The way to create a BDateFormat from a BLocale is still open for
discussion. I'm undecided between making BDateFormat a member of
BLocale, or adding a BDateFormat(const BLocale&) constructor.
* Adjust all users of the API.
A BGeolocation object can query an online service to get geolocation
and geotagging data:
* LocateSelf() tries to locate the machine it is running on, by using an
online database of wifi access points
* Locate() (not yet implemented) searches a BString and converts it to
lat/lon coordinates (reverse geotagging)
* Name() (not yet implemented) finds a suitable name for the given
coordinates (address, building name, or anything fitting).
The default service used is openbmap.org, which is freely available but
not very accurate. A request has been sent to Mozilla to use MLS
(Mozilla Location Services), which is a bit more accurate but needs an
API key. MLS is used for geolocation on FirefoxOS, for mobile phones
which don't have a GPS, and the data can be contributed by Firefox for
Android or the dedicated MozStumbler app.
Alternatively, Google Maps also provide the service, but wants
people to pay for it. Google Maps data is more accurate as all Android
devices contribute data to it.
All 3 services use the same JSON-based API: we send a list of reachable
Wifi APs (mac address and signal strength), and we get lattitude and
longitude information, and possibly extra data which will currently be
unused.
This can be used to implement HTML5 geolocation with reasonably accurate
results, but it can also be used in other places. For example
FirstBootPrompt could try to guess a list of most likely languages and
keyboard layouts from it (if wifi is working at install time, that is).
Comments to #9672 agree that there's really no need to
expose the dev_t handle, thus simplifying the API.
The dev_t handle, if required, can be retrieved via
BPartition::GetVolume() instead.
This patch adds user_access() which can be used to gracefully handle
page faults that may happen when accessing user memory. It is used
by arch_cpu_user{memcpy, memset, strlcpy}() to allow using optimized
functions from the standard library.
Currently only x64 uses this, but nothing really is arch specific here.

The kernel is allowed to use fpu anywhere so we must make sure that
user state is not clobbered by saving fpu state at interrupt entry.
There is no need to do that in case of system calls since all fpu
data registers are caller saved.
We do not need, though, to save the whole fpu state at task swich
(again, thanks to calling convention). Only status and control
registers are preserved. This patch actually adds xmm0-15 register
to clobber list of task swich code, but the only reason of that is
to make sure that nothing bad happens inside the function that
executes that task swich. Inspection of the generated code shows
that no xmm registers are actually saved.

There is absolutely no reason for these functions to be in commpage,
they don't do anything that involves the kernel in any way.
Additionaly, this patch rewrites memset and memcpy to C++, current
implementation is quite simple (though it may perform surprisingly
well when dealing with large buffers on cpus with ermsb). Better
versions are coming soon.

The possibility to specify custom memcpy and memset implementations
in cpu modules is currently unused and there is generally no point
in such feature.
There are only 2 x86 vendors that really matter and there isn't
very big difference in performance of the generic optmized versions
of these funcions across different models. Even if we wanted different
versions of memset and memcpy depending on the processor model or
features much better solution would be to use STT_GNU_IFUNC and save
one indirect call.
Long story short, we don't really benefit in any way from
get_optimized_functions and the feature it implements and it only adds
unnecessary complexity to the code.

* Removes default mapping of a portion of the RAM (will be done
as needed)
* Passes on the page directory area to kernel, so on early vm init
the kernel can use the area for pagetable allocation.
* Leaves it to the platform to pass in physical memory range(s). This
will ultimately come from FDT.
* Fix long standing issue with allocation of the heap, potentially
causing other part of the bootloader to overwrite the heap.
* Implements pagetable allocator in kernel for early vm mapping.
This fixes the first PANIC seen, we now just get the same one later
on when the VM is up... more to come...
This reverts commit 3fbb24680c.
As I mentioned in #11131, this fix is not correct, and works around
the problem. The real reason was that arch_debug_call_with_fault_handler
was not working properly, so the fault handler went crazy.
With commit eb92810 that is fixed so this can be reverted.
If GCC knows what these functions are actually doing the resulting
code can be optimized better what is especially noticeable in case of
invocations of atomic_{or,and}() that ignore the result. Obviously,
everything is inlined what also improves performance.

Based on an earlier piece of source code of mine that parsed JSON into
QObjects, this JSON parser creates a BMessage tree.
Will be used by Stephan in HaikuDepot for communication with the web app.
* From now on, the gcc-specific system libraries (libgcc, libsupc++ and
libstdc++) are provided by separate packages built along with gcc:
- gcc_syslibs contains the shared libraries (libgcc_s.so, libsupc++.so and
libstdc++.so)
- gcc_syslibs_devel contains the static libraries and both c++ and gcc
headers
The shared libraries now make proper use of symbol versioning and there
are version-specific symlinks
* The buildsystem has been adjusted to no longer use the libraries and
headers from the cross-compiler, but use the ones provided by the
above-mentioned packages. The only exception is that the 32-bit libraries
required for the bootloader of the x86_64 architecture are still taken
from the cross-compiler.
* The new libstdc++.so contains program headers of type PT_RELRO (for
making segments read-only after relocation). While the actual feature
has not been implemented, the runtime_loader should now silently
accept (and ignore) those program headers.
