allow for more parallelism. Also introduce seperate locks for the bins and
for page allocation. This greatly reduces lock contention and reduces the
duration the locks are held due to them overall protecting less code. Now only
allocations of the same size hitting the same allocator or allocating larger
chunks of memory should block. Previously, basically any allocation and also
free would be mutually exclusive, making it scale pretty badely.
* Added memalign_nogrow(). As it uses heap_memalign() anyway, there's no real
reason not to allow for an alignment.
* Some cleanup.
git-svn-id: file:///srv/svn/repos/haiku/haiku/trunk@32074 a95241bf-73f2-0310-859d-f6bbb57e9c96
ROUNDUP to use '*' and '/' -- the compiler will optimize that for powers of
two anyway and this implementation works for other numbers as well.
* The thread::fault_handler use in C[++] code was broken with gcc 4. At least
when other functions were invoked. Trying to trick the compiler wasn't a
particularly good idea anyway, since the next compiler version could break
the trick again. So the general policy is to use the fault handlers only in
assembly code where we have full control. Changed that for x86 (save for the
vm86 mode, which has a similar mechanism), but not for the other
architectures.
* Introduced fault_handler, fault_handler_stack_pointer, and fault_jump_buffer
fields in the cpu_ent structure, which must be used instead of
thread::fault_handler in the kernel debugger. Consequently user_memcpy() must
not be used in the kernel debugger either. Introduced a debug_memcpy()
instead.
* Introduced debug_call_with_fault_handler() function which calls a function
in a setjmp() and fault handler context. The architecture specific backend
arch_debug_call_with_fault_handler() has only been implemented for x86 yet.
* Introduced debug_is_kernel_memory_accessible() for use in the kernel
debugger. It determines whether a range of memory can be accessed in the
way specified. The architecture specific back end
arch_vm_translation_map_is_kernel_page_accessible() has only been implemented
for x86 yet.
* Added arch_debug_unset_current_thread() (only implemented for x86) to unset
the current thread pointer in the kernel debugger. When entering the kernel
debugger we do some basic sanity checks of the currently set thread structure
and unset it, if they fail. This allows certain commands (most importantly
the stack trace command) to avoid accessing the thread structure.
* x86: When handling a double fault, we do now install a special handler for
page faults. This allows us to gracefully catch faulting commands, even if
e.g. the thread structure is toast.
We are now in much better shape to deal with double faults. Hopefully avoiding
the triple faults that some people have been experiencing on their hardware
and ideally even allowing to use the kernel debugger normally.

- stubbed out arch_cpu_init_percpu(),
- make atomic ops declarations extern "C",
- move calls to [i]sync inside the asm code that needs it.
git-svn-id: file:///srv/svn/repos/haiku/haiku/trunk@32067 a95241bf-73f2-0310-859d-f6bbb57e9c96
* SMP:
- Added smp_send_broadcast_ici_interrupts_disabled(), which is basically
equivalent to smp_send_broadcast_ici(), but is only called with interrupts
disabled and gets the CPU index, so it doesn't have to use
smp_get_current_cpu() (which dereferences the current thread).
- Added cpu index parameter to smp_intercpu_int_handler().
* x86:
- arch_int.c -> arch_int.cpp
- Set up an IDT per CPU. We were using a single IDT for all CPUs, but that
can't work, since we need different tasks for the double fault interrupt
vector.
- Set the per CPU double fault task gates correctly.
- Renamed set_intr_gate() to set_interrupt_gate and set_system_gate() to
set_trap_gate() and documented them a bit.
- Renamed double_fault_exception() x86_double_fault_exception() and fixed
it not to use smp_get_current_cpu(). Instead we have the new
x86_double_fault_get_cpu() that deducts the CPU index from the used stack.
- Fixed the double_fault interrupt handler: It no longer calls int_bottom to
avoid accessing the current thread.
* debug.cpp:
- Introduced explicit debug_double_fault() to enter the kernel debugger from
a double fault handler.
- Avoid using smp_get_current_cpu().
- Don't use kprintf() before sDebuggerOnCPU is set. Otherwise
acquire_spinlock() is invoked by arch_debug_serial_puts().
Things look a bit better when the current thread pointer is broken -- we run
into kernel_debugger_loop() and successfully print the "Welcome to KDL"
message -- but we still dereference the thread pointer afterwards, so that we
don't get a usable kernel debugger yet.
git-svn-id: file:///srv/svn/repos/haiku/haiku/trunk@32050 a95241bf-73f2-0310-859d-f6bbb57e9c96
* Added x86_double_fault_get_cpu(), a save way to get the CPU index when in
the double fault handler. smp_get_current_cpu() requires at least a somewhat
intact thread structure, so we rather want to avoid it when handling a double
fault. There are a lot more of those dependencies in the KDL entry code.
Working on it...

* Renamed the new Haiku call fs_open_attr() to fs_fopen_attr(), and added a new
function fs_open_attr() that takes a path (same semantics as the
fs_[f]open_attr_dir() functions already present in BeOS).
* Merged former _kern_open_attr(), and _kern_create_attr() into one syscall.
* Cleaned up vfs.h.

Tracker's OpenHashTable.h which it should eventually replace. We've renamed the
class to BOpenHashTable and changed the interface slightly so that HashTableLink
became superfluous.
Adapted all the code that used it. Since the OpenHashTables no longer clash,
this should fix the GCC4 build.

of the parameter string, and thus bug #4045.
* Removed UserMemoryParameter, as it's no longer in use.
* Adjusted syscalls accordingly.

there are prefixed with the respective architecture name. Useful for remote
debugging a different architecture.
* <x86/arch_debugger.h>: Introduced a structure for the FPU state, so that it
isn't left to the debugger.
* Removed the _kern_get_thread_cpu_state() syscall. Was originally intended for
bdb compatiblity, but isn't really needed.
* Kernel x86 arch_get_debug_cpu_state(): The use of fnsave was broken, since
it reinits the FPU after saving the state. This resulted in weird results
when debugging functions using the FPU. We now use fxsave, if available.
Otherwise fnsave + frstor should be used -- not fully implemented yet.
Same for arch_set_debug_cpu_state().

* Profiling the boot process is now possible.

patch from about a year ago (I couldn't use any code of his yet, though,
but there are a few things left). The emergency keys are triggered by
pressing Alt-SysReq + key.
* By default, only Alt-SysReq+'d' is used as a means to deliberately enter
the kernel debugger. F12 belongs to userland again, now :-)
* Debugger add-ons now have another optional method to implement their own
emergency keys - 'd' for the debugger cannot be overridden, though.
* The mechanism can be turned off via a new kernel setting, so it's not that
easy anymore to "crash" Haiku if you don't want to.
* Right now, the PS/2 driver, and the pre-input_server in-kernel debugger
keyboard mini-driver support this, USB not yet.
* Minor cleanup.

* Added missing name parameter to the partitioning system module child creation
and child creation validation hooks. Pass the name to them.
* Added BPartitionParameterEditor interface, which is/will be used for editing
disk system specific parameters.
* Implemented partition parameter editors for BFS initialization and Intel
partition map child creation.
* Fixed the incorrect supported child partition type iteration in the Intel
partition map add-on. It does now return actual types.
* Handle the "active" flag parameter in the Intel partitioning system module.
* DriveSetup:
- Replaced the "Create" submenu by a simple menu item. The type can now by
chosen in the dialog.
- Make use of initialization and child creation parameter editors. Some
non-generic code has been moved to the respective editor implementations
(BFS, intel partitioning system).

* devfs:
- devfs_[un]publish_partition(): They no longer get the partition path as
parameter, but rather the device path and the partition name.
- Added devfs_rename_partition(), which renames an already published
partition node.
* KPartition/KDiskDevice:
- Replaced the fPublished flag by fPublishedName, the name under which the
partition is published. This simplifies UnpublishDevice() and makes it
practically infallible.
- Added GetFileName(), which only returns the partition's file name.
Simplified GetPath() by using it.
- When a partition is added/removed the subsequent sibling partitions get a
new index. Now we also rename their published device nodes (and those of
their descendents). When something goes wrong we unpublish the concerned
partition's device to be on the safe side. Would be a shame to accidentally
format the wrong partition, eh? :-)

KPartition::CreateChild(). CreateChild() calls AddChild(), which publishes
the new partition, though at that point offset and size were not set, so that
the published devices would not be usable.

* The bulk of the work -- i.e. juggling the software and hardware breakpoints,
watchpoints, and memory reads/writes -- is done in the new class
BreakpointManager.
* For the architectures a few capability macros have to be defined, one
pointing to the software breakpoint instruction opcode. Done for x86.
* Some more simplifications in the user debugger code, made possible by the
recently introduced debugger_changed_condition attribute.

installed team debugger and adjusted the code accordingly. It's not needed yet,
but I intend to add support for software breakpoints and those require a bit of
uninitialization that needs to be synchronized with debugger changes and can't
be done with interrupts disabled.

* Removed unused inner struct State.
* Added work-around for the extremely annoying "fState my be used
uninitialized" warning gcc 4 produces. I'm not aware of any solution that
doesn't generate unnecessary code. :-/

and added a _kern_unreserve_address_range() as well.
* The runtime loader now reserves the space needed for all its areas first
to make sure there is enough space left for all areas of a single image.
* This also fixes the final part of bug #4008.
* Minor cleanup.

* Generalized address checks. The debugger can now also read the commpage.
* Added new syscall _kern_get_thread_cpu_state() to get the CPU state of a
not running thread. Introduced arch_get_thread_debug_cpu_state() for that
purpose, which is only implemented for x86 ATM (uses the new
i386_get_thread_user_iframe()).
* Don't allow a debugger to change a thread's "esp" anymore. That's the esp
register in the kernel. "user_esp" can still be changed.
* Generally set RF (resume flag) in eflags in interrupt handlers, not only
after a instruction breakpoint debug exception. This should prevent
breakpoints from being triggered more than once (e.g. when the breakpoint is
on an instruction that can cause a page fault). I still saw those with bdb
in VMware, but that might be a VMware bug.

boot device is actually read-only (even if it's using the write overlay).
* Do not create a swap file on a read-only device - this would really be a
stupid use of the write overlay (just saw this happening on an older
machine).
* Made swap_file_{add|delete}() take a const char* path - there was no reason
this was writable, and this also avoids casting away the const when adding
the default swap file.
* Minor cleanup.

have a simple dedicated heap for the kernel debugger with stacked allocation
pools (deleting a pool frees all memory allocated in it). The heap should
eventually be used for all commands that need temporary storage too large for
the stack instead of each using its own static buffer.

- While walking down the cache chain, we keep all upper caches locked.
- When we have to unlock -- when waiting for a busy page or reading a page in
-- we unlock completely, including the address space, and restart
vm_soft_fault().
- Folded fault_get_page() and fault_find_page() into one.
This simplifies and improves things considerably:
- We no longer need dummy pages.
- We no longer need vm_area::no_cache_change.
- #2710 is fixed, since we no longer hold the address space lock while
waiting.
* vm_soft_fault(): When we have found our page, we first check whether a page
is already mapped at the address. If it is already our page, we just change
its protection. If not, we unmap it first. Fixes race conditions when multiple
threads fault at the same address at the same time.
* fault_get_page(): When copying a read-only page from a lower cache, no longer
mark it active, since at least for the fault area it is shadowed from then on.
* vm_set_area_protection(): Fixed potential overflow for in the
vm_translation_map::protect() call.

gcc could apparently assume that the register assigned to the one in the
clobber list would keep its value (as can be observed when disassembling
add_debugger_command_etc()).
Using a dummy output register works around the problem and also avoids the
unnecessary initialization of the register.
Comments explaining the mystery welcome.

* Implemented a way to do asynchronous pre-fetching when mapping files.
* There are slight code duplications in some places that could benefit
from cleaning up, but nothing too bad.
* Implementing smarter ways to trigger prefetching and more analysis of
the situations in the kernel would be nice. Currently up to 10 MB
of every mapped file are pre-fetched without further analysis.
* The speed improvement is nice for certain operations. On our test
system (real hardware), Firefox took 9 seconds from being launched
to display a window. Now it takes 5 seconds. Both measurements
right after booting. The same system took 35 seconds from launching
Haiku in the GRUB menu to displaying the Tracker desktop background
image. Now it takes 27 seconds.
* We didn't have the chance to check out the effects of this on the
CD boot, but potentially, they could speed it up a lot.
git-svn-id: file:///srv/svn/repos/haiku/haiku/trunk@30465 a95241bf-73f2-0310-859d-f6bbb57e9c96
- Moved scheduler listening interface to <listeners.h> and added more
convenient to use templatized notification functions.
- Added a listener mechanism for the wait objects (semaphores, condition
variables, mutex, rw_lock).
* system profiler:
- Hopefully fixed locking issues related to notifying the profiler thread
for good. We still had an inconsistent locking order, since the scheduler
notification callbacks are invoked with the thread lock held and have to
acquire the object lock then, while the other callbacks acquired the object
lock first and as a side effect of ConditionVariable::NotifyOne() acquired
the thread lock. Now we make sure the object lock is the innermost lock.
- Track the number of dropped events due to a full buffer.
_user_system_profiler_next_buffer() returns this count now.
- When scheduling profiling events are requested also listen to wait objects
and generate the respective profiling events. We send those events lazily
and cache the infos to avoid resending an event for the same wait object.
- When starting profiling we do now generate "thread scheduled" events for
the already running threads.
- _user_system_profiler_start(): Check whether the parameters pointer is a
userland address at all.
- The system_profiler_team_added event does now also contain the team's name.
* Added a sem_get_name_unsafe() returning a semaphore's name. It is "unsafe",
since the caller has to ensure that the semaphore exists and continues to
exist as long as the returned name is used.
* Adjusted the "profile" and "scheduling_recorder" according to the system
profiling changes. The latter prints the number of dropped events, now.
git-svn-id: file:///srv/svn/repos/haiku/haiku/trunk@30345 a95241bf-73f2-0310-859d-f6bbb57e9c96

being. Obviously we'll have to think of something different when we support
speed-stepping on models with frequency-dependent TSCs.

passed in a structure now, so it is easier to extend it and ignore unused
parameters.
* One can now select which system profiling events one is interested in.
* Added scheduling events to the system profiling interface. Those are pretty
much the ones recorded when scheduler tracing is enabled. Still missing are
the "wait object" events that allow to interpret what a thread is waiting
for.

methods that used an "event mask" field. There was no need to introduce
a "flags" field for the same purpose.
* Renamed protected DefaultNotificationService methods (removed "_" prefix).
* Adjusted the code providing a notification service accordingly.
* Changed the event message several notification services generated by renaming
the "opcode" field to "event".
* Implemented the TEAM_ADDED event and also added a TEAM_EXEC event.
* Added notifications for threads and images.
* Added visitor-like iteration functions for teams, threads, and images.

DefaultUserNotificationService.

* The I/O context related vfs_*() functions have io_context* instead of void*
parameters/return values, now.
* vfs_new_io_context(): Lock the parent I/O context before getting its table
size. Otherwise the table size could change until we do.
* vfs_resize_fd_table(): Fixed use of MutexLocker. We created only a temporary
object, not one with function scope.
* Renamed load_image_etc() to load_image_internal() and added a parameter for
specifying the parent team of the one to create.
* Introduced a kernel private load_image_etc() with a few more arguments than
load_image().

* Extended the debugger message for B_DEBUGGER_MESSAGE_HANDED_OVER by the
causing thread.
* Also send B_DEBUGGER_MESSAGE_HANDED_OVER to the debugger to which the team
was handed over. The message will be the very first one the debugger gets
from the team in question.
* Some harmless refactoring (added thread_hit_serious_debug_event()).
git-svn-id: file:///srv/svn/repos/haiku/haiku/trunk@29302 a95241bf-73f2-0310-859d-f6bbb57e9c96
* Added debugger commands to resolve usb_ids to pipes.
* Adjusted the physical memory allocator to be usable in a slimmed down mode
when running inside the kernel debugger.
* Implemented USB keyboard support for KDL through a kernel debugger add-on.
* Added kgetc() and made use of it where previously individual methods were used
to ensure that reading characters always goes through the kernel debugger
add-ons and the other methods.
This has some preconditions to meet though:
1) The keyboard must be in the boot protocol (currently the case but needs to
be revisited once we have a full usb_hid).
2) The keyboard must be attached to a UHCI root port (i.e. not use EHCI or OHCI,
also not through hubs unless those are USB 1.1).
3) the usb_hid driver has to be opened for this to work. This means that for the
time between initializing USB and when usb_hid is opened by the input_server
there is no keyboard support.
Also note that this has no way of detecting hot-plug, meaning that you can't
re-attach your USB keyboard from the hub to the root port once in KDL.
On the bright side of things, since this is a non-destructive mechanism it is
possible to enter and leave KDL without loosing the USB state.
Tested OK in QEMU, not tested on real hardware yet, will see in a few minutes.

It causes the interrupt handler to be inserted at the very end of the list
instead of at the top. It is intended to be used as a workaround when a
interrupt handler cannot know if it actually handled the interrupt. This
should never be used by native drivers. Also if we know that the result is
not valid because of this flag we won't disable the vector in case we count
many unhandled interrupts as those numbers are then unreliable.
* Moved B_NO_LOCK_VECTOR to be a private flag as well.
* Made the interrupt handler list a simple manually maintaned singly linked list
instead of the doubly linked one used with insque and remque as it greatly
simplifies things for such an easy use case and is more compact.

* Replaced the use of offsetof() for structs that aren't PODs. Add a
offset_of_member() macro to util/khash.h because that's what it's used for
in our cases.
* Change the signature of add_debugger_command()/remove_debugger_command() on
GCC > 2 to avoid the depricated conversion from string constants to char *.
* Adding some "suggested" parenthesis. I know that not everyone likes that, but
it pointed out at least one bug that is fixed here as well.

better reflect what they are for. Minimum priority is now 1, ie. you no
longer can set another thread to the idle priority. This fixes part of
ticket #2959.
* set_thread_priority() will no longer allow to change the priority of the
idle thread to something else. This fixes the rest of ticket #2959.

This is not necessary, since userland teams' page directories also
contain the kernel mappings, and avoids unnecessary TLB flushes. To make
that possible the vm_translation_map_arch_info objects are reference
counted now.
This optimization reduces the kernel time of the Haiku build on my
machine with SMP disabled a few percent, but interestingly the total
time decreases only marginally. Haven't tested with SMP yet, but for
full impact CPU affinity would be needed.

scheduler_set_thread_priority(). Setting the thread priority was the
only situation in which it was used.
* Renamed scheduler.cpp to scheduler_simple.cpp.
* The scheduler functions are no longer called directly. Instead there's
an operation vector now, which is initialized at kernel init time.
This allows for picking the most suitable scheduler for the machine
(e.g. a non-SMP scheduler on a non-SMP machine).
git-svn-id: file:///srv/svn/repos/haiku/haiku/trunk@28262 a95241bf-73f2-0310-859d-f6bbb57e9c96
* Turned the checks for all those macros to "#if"s instead of "#ifdef"s.
* Introduced macro KDEBUG_LEVEL which serves as a master setting.
git-svn-id: file:///srv/svn/repos/haiku/haiku/trunk@28248 a95241bf-73f2-0310-859d-f6bbb57e9c96
added vm_memcpy_from_physical() and vm_memcpy_physical_page(), and
added respective functions to the vm_translation_map operations. The
architecture specific implementation can now decide how to implement
them most efficiently. Added generic implementations that can be used,
though.
* Changed vm_{get,put}_physical_page(). The former no longer accepts
flags (the only flag PHYSICAL_PAGE_DONT_WAIT wasn't needed anymore).
Instead it returns an implementation-specific handle that has to be
passed to the latter. Added vm_{get,put}_physical_page_current_cpu()
and *_debug() variants, that work only for the current CPU,
respectively when in the kernel debugger. Also adjusted the
vm_translation_map operations accordingly.
* Made consequent use of the physical memory operations in the source
tree.
* Also adjusted the m68k and ppc implementations with respect to the
vm_translation_map operation changes, but they are probably broken,
nevertheless.
* For x86 the generic physical page mapper isn't used anymore. It is
suboptimal in any case. For systems with small memory it is too much
overhead, since one can just map the complete physical memory (that's
not done yet, though). For systems with large memory it counteracts
the VM strategy to reuse the least recently used pages. Since those
pages will most likely not be mapped by the page mapper anymore, it
will keep remapping chunks. This was also the reason why building
Haiku in Haiku was significantly faster with only 256 MB RAM (since
that much could be kept mapped all the time).
Now we're using a different strategy: We have small pools of virtual
page slots per CPU that are used for the physical page operations
(memset_physical(), memcpy_*_physical()) with CPU-pinned thread.
Furthermore we have four slots per translation map, which are used to
map page tables.
These changes speed up the Haiku image build in Haiku significantly. On
my Core2 Duo 2.2 GHz 2 GB machine about 40% to 20 min 40 s (KDEBUG
disabled, block cache debug disabled). Still more than factor 3 slower
than FreeBSD and Linux, though.
git-svn-id: file:///srv/svn/repos/haiku/haiku/trunk@28244 a95241bf-73f2-0310-859d-f6bbb57e9c96
* Introduced flag "invoke_scheduler" in the per CPU structure. It is
evaluated in hardware_interrupt() (x86 only ATM).
* Introduced SMP_MSG_RESCHEDULE_IF_IDLE message, which enters the
scheduler when the CPU currently runs an idle thread.
* Don't do dprintf() "CPU x halted!" when handling a SMP_MSG_CPU_HALT
ICI message. It uses nested spinlocks and could thus potentially
deadlock itself (acquire_spinlock() processes ICI messages, so it
could already hold one of the locks). This is a pretty likely scenario
on machines with more than two CPUs, but is also possible when the
panic()ing thread holds the threads spinlock. Probably fixes#2572.
* Reworked the way the kernel debugger is entered and added a "cpu"
command that allows switching the CPU once in KDL. It is thus possible
to get a stack trace of the thread not on the panic()ing CPU.
* When a thread is added to the run queue, we do now check, if another
CPU is idle and ask it to reschedule, if it is. Before this change, the
CPU was continuing to idle until the quantum of the idle thread
expired. Speeds up the libbe.so build about 8% on my machine (haven't
tested the full Haiku image build yet).
* When spinlock debugging is enabled (DEBUG_SPINLOCKS) we also record
the spinlock acquirer on non-smp machines. Added "spinlock" debugger
command to get the info.
* Added debugger commands "ici" and "ici_message", printing info on
pending ICI message respectively on a given one.
* Process not only a single ICI message in acquire_spinlock() and other
places, but all pending ones.
* Also process ICI messages when waiting for a free one -- avoids a
potential deadlock.
* Mask out non-existing CPUs in send_multicast_ici(). panic() instead of
just returning when there's no target CPU left.

BDiskDeviceRoster::GetFileDeviceForPath().

several places.

debugger add-on set a demangle hook, all modules under debugger/demangle/ are
now considered demangle modules.
* Added another function to the demangle module interface that gives you access
to the arguments.
* Implemented a demangling module for GCC2.
* The older demangling module is now called "gcc3+", but doesn't support
getting the arguments yet.
* The "call" KDL command is now using demangling to automatically show you
the arguments of a call from a stack crawl.
* Minor cleanup.

arch_vm_aspace_swap().
* The x86 implementation does now maintain a bit mask per
vm_translation_map_arch_info indicating on which CPUs the address
space is active. This allows flush_tmap() to avoid ICI for user
address spaces when the team isn't currently running on any other CPU.
In this context ICI is relatively expensive, particularly since we map
most pages via vm_map_page() and therefore invoke flush_tmap() pretty
much for every single page.
This optimization speeds up a "hello world" compilation about 20% on
my machine (KDEBUG turned off, freshly booted), but interestingly it
has virtually no effect on the "-j2" haiku build time.

buffer format, the buffer can now also contain other events than just
stack traces. ATM these are only references to the image events
(created/deleted). Therefore we no longer have to flush the profiling
buffer after such an event, since the debugger can exactly match the
samples. Since we couldn't flush when the profiling timer hit while the
thread was in the kernel, that wasn't working that well anyway.
"profile -f" fails to translate stack trace addresses only very rarely,
now.

been mounted, before anyone could try to load any modules from it.
Also pass it a flag whether the boot volume is where the boot loader
pre-loaded the modules from.
* module_init_post_boot_device() changes the pre-loaded module image
paths to normalized boot volume paths, now. Got rid of the code in
register_preloaded_module_image() which tried something like this.
* Changed module image ref counting. A referenced module has single
reference to its image, which is released when the module becomes
unreferenced.
* get_module() for a reference module will not try to re-get and re-set
the module's image anymore. That could lead to a similar module (from
different paths) being loaded at the same time. A module from a new
file can only be loaded when the old one has been put completely.
* Simplified B_KEEP_ALIVE module handling a bit. When the module is
initialized, we add another reference, which we'll never free. Thus
the module remains loaded without special handling. Removed
module_image::keep_loaded. A B_KEEP_ALIVE module remains referenced
and thus its image remains referenced, too.
* Removed module::file, a cached path to the module's image. An
optimization that wouldn't work with multiple root directories for
modules (/boot/beos/..., /boot/common/...) or when module files were
moved. get_module() does now always search the image file, when the
module is still unreferenced. This should be a bit slower than before,
but I didn't notice any difference in VMware at least. If it turns out
to be a problem we could introduce a more intelligent cache that stays
up to date by using node monitoring.

true and the leaf component is a symlink, it will be resolved.

* Extended the profiling API by an option to record a variable number of
samples per tick. The stack depth is used as a maximum.
* Added new option "-f" to the "profile" tool. When specified it
increments the hit counts of all symbols in the full available caller
stack. I.e. the resulting hit counts will approximate the total time
spent in each function or any function directly or indirectly called
by it. Thus "_start" and "main" will usually get 100% and leaf
functions only what time has actually been spent in them.

* BFS::Stream::GetName() was broken. It accessed the small data region

is a variably-sized structure with the small data region at the end.
Changed that to a ref-counted, shared member instead.

buffer during a timer event that interrupted a kernel function: We do
now flush the buffer as soon as it is 70% full, *if* we didn't interrupt
a kernel function. When the buffer runs full and we still haven't hit a
user function, we drop the tick. The number of dropped ticks is recorded
and sent to the debugger with the next update message.
Reverted the previous partial solution (the temporary disabling of
profiling while in debugger support code).

sent with several debugger messages.
* Track the image event counter that is used when samples are added to
the profiling buffer. If the current team counter differs, we flush
the buffer first (sending an update message to the debugger), so that
the debugger has a chance to match the addresses to the correct images.
* Disable profiling for a thread while it runs in the debugger support
code. This fixes potential deadlocks which could occur when a
profiling timer event occurred that would require the buffer to be
flushed while the thread was just sending something to the debugger or
waiting for a command. As it turns out, this is not sufficient either,
since we should never try to flush the buffer when the timer event
occurred in the kernel, since the thread might hold a lock that the
debugger thread could try to acquire. Will implement a more general
solution later.

newly introduced callback feature, which notifies the debugger right
before returning from the interrupt.
* We didn't indicate that the profiling buffer was full and that the

was profiled while trying to notify the debugger that the profiling
buffer was full, resulting in a deadlock. Introduce a respective flag

* Introduced _kern_analyze_scheduling() syscall. It requires scheduler
kernel tracing to be enabled. It uses the tracing entries for a given
period of time to do a similar analysis the "scheduler" debugger
command does (i.e. number of runs, run time, latencies, preemption
times) for each thread. Additionally the analysis includes for each
thread how long the thread waited on each locking primitive in total.
* Added kernel tracing for the creation of semaphores and initialization
of condition variables, mutexes, and rw locks. The enabling macro is
SCHEDULING_ANALYSIS_TRACING. The only purpose is to provide
_kern_analyze_scheduling() with more info on the locking primitives
(the name in particular).

* Reorganized merging of caches a bit. Renamed MergeStore() to Merge()
and moved some more functionality into it. The method also moves the
pages from source to consumer, now. This is necessary, since
VMAnonymousCache needs to consider both physical pages and swap pages
at the same time. Before we first moved the physical pages and the
swap pages later, which was broken for two reasons: (1) A swap page in
the consumer cache shadows a physical page of the source cache, which
we ignored. (2) A source cache's physical page that also had a swap
page would lose the latter in the process when moved to the consumer
cache, i.e. if the page was not marked modified, it could be stolen
and its data would be lost.
These changes improve the situation when building Haiku with 256 MB RAM
in that jam doesn't crash anymore, but in my test the system became
totally unusable after about an hour or 7000 targets (GUI froze). For
some reason it didn't manage to free pages anymore although swapping
heavily.

debug_{get,set}_debugged_thread(). By default the currently debugged

mainly supposed to be used for resizing allocations asynchrounously.

don't wait for memory or pages to become available. They fail
immediately instead.

of free objects an object cache should try to have ready. If the number
of free objects drops below the threshold, a new urgent priority thread
is asked to asynchronously resize the object cache (pretty similar to
the heap grower thread). Such a mechanism is necessary for code paths
that are supposed to free pages, but may need memory themselves (like
the swap support).

be written directly by passing B_PHYSICAL_IO_REQUEST.
* Added VMCache::WriteAsync() which is supposed to write pages
asynchronously. The base class version version falls back to the
synchronous Write(). Only VMVnodeCache implements WriteAsync() ATM,
VMAnonymousCache (swap support) still has to be adjusted accordingly.
* write_page() doesn't need to map the page anymore as it can write the
physical page directly.
* Modified the page writer to write pages asynchronously. This shouldn't
have any noticeable effect yet. It will though as soon as the I/O
scheduler reorders I/O operations.

Ingo suggestions: instead of having one global sem_undo list,
we now have two local list, one per semaphore set and one per team
which is held in its xsi_sem_context structure, along with a mutex.
A mutex has also been added to the semaphore set class in order to
protect the local list, but also in order to (hopefully) improve
concurrency.

* Introduced gMappedPagesCount variable which counts the total number of
physical pages that are mapped.
* Added vm_page_get_stats() which fills in the memory related part of
the system_info structure. Used and cached pages are computed
differently, now. The "available" (== not committed) memory is no
longer used for the computation as it doesn't say anything about the
actually used/free pages (with swap support enabled it is even
less meaningful, since we first commit swap space when possible).
We do also consider the memory used by the block cache as cached
pages, now. All in all these changes should fix the memory statistics
reported by get_system_info(), IOW bug #2574.

include the guard pages. Adjusted the kernel and boot loader code
accordingly -- the guard pages size is added/not removed respectively.
The stack size passed to _kern_spawn_thread() is now the actually usable
size, and it is no longer possible to specify a size smaller than or
equal to the guard pages size.
* vm_create_anonymous_area(): Precommit two pages maximum -- a stack with
only one page usable size obviously doesn't need two pages.

* is_kernel_stack_address() does now also check whether the given
address is on the double fault stack. This fixes stack traces on
double faults, which were broken (i.e. went only to the double fault
iframe) since we started checking whether the addresses are on the
kernel stack at all.

- Fixed deadlock in xsi_sem_undo - RecordUndo
- Fixed issue in xsi_sem_undo: if the semaphore set does not exist
anymore, ignore the request but do remove the process from the sUndoList,
which wasn't previously done.
- free() in ClearUndos was called with interrupts disabled
- when a semaphore set ends to exist, remove all it's sem_undo request as it's ID
will be reused in the future.

partially (e.g. due to hitting the end of file). The respective
classes have grown new methods and attributes to deal with that. The
"finished" callbacks have got additional parameters to indicate
whether the transfer was only partial and how much has been
transferred. Other callbacks and functions have a size_t* in/out
parameter instead of a simple size_t, now.
* vfs_{read,write}_pages() do now use the I/O request framework instead
of the underlying FS's {read,write}_pages() hooks (those should be
unused now). Furthermore they've got an additional "flags" parameter,
which is passed to IORequest::Init(), i.e. it allows to specify that
the given vecs refer to physical addresses.
* The file cache's read_into_cache() reads directly into physical
pages, now.
* Fixed bug in DoIO::IO(): The offset was not adjusted, so that all
pages were incorrectly transferred from/to the same location.
* Fixed broken subrequest scheduling loop head in
do_iterative_fd_io_iterate().
* Adjusted the test driver and implemented its io() hook. Using this
driver I/O requests are passed all the way from the VFS/VM to the
driver and through the I/O scheduler. It even seems to work. :-)
* Added missing const to the iovec* parameter of the IORequest::Init()
methods.
* Disabled some debug output by default. Added new optional debug
output.

* Added ASSERT_{READ|WRITE}_LOCKED_RW_LOCK() macros. The read assertion is only
working when KDEBUG_RW_LOCK_DEBUG is defined to 1, the write assertion works
always.
git-svn-id: file:///srv/svn/repos/haiku/haiku/trunk@26686 a95241bf-73f2-0310-859d-f6bbb57e9c96
* Added "syslog" command that dumps the contents of the syslog ring buffer into
KDL. Use the '-n' option to only show what hasn't been sent to the syslog
daemon yet.
* When entering the kernel debugger, the current thread ID and name are also
printed (not only the current CPU).

by myself:
* renamed xsi_do_undo() to xsi_sem_undo() (there is more to XSI than sems).
* Fixed coding style issues in sys/sem.h and xsi_sem.cpp.
* Added _kern_*() syscall prototypes to syscalls.h.
* Added a TODO in xsi_sem.cpp and xsi_semaphore.h about moving union semun to
a shared header.
* Made the team::xsi_sem_undo_requests int32 - due to padding, it would have
needed 4 bytes anyway; please always use specific types over int/short/long.
* xsi_sem_undo() now checks if it needs to do anything - the calls in team.cpp
no longer needs to do this.

to provide asynchrounous (or only synchronous, if asynchronous is not
supported) I/O request support. It will eventually replace
{read,write}_pages(). None of the FS implementations implement them
yet.
* Implemented some support functions for request-based I/O. File system
implementations can use do_fd_io() which passes an I/O request to the
layer responsible for a given FD, and do_iterative_fd_io(), which
translates a request for a file to subrequests for the underlying
device and passes them on. Both fall back to synchrounous processing
when the io() hook is not supported.
Furthermore added vfs_synchronous_io() which should be handy for the
devfs to perform io_requests synchronously for devices that don't
support the io() hook.

It does its job by using part of libsupc++, with fake malloc and friends to make sure it won't double fault.

introduces the following relevant changes:
* VMCache:
- Renamed vm_cache to VMCache, merged it with vm_store and made it a
C++ class with virtual methods (replacing the store operations).
Turned the different store implementations into subclasses.
- Introduced MergeStore() callback, changed semantics of Commit().
- Changed locking and referencing semantics. A reference can only be
acquired/released with the cache locked. An unreferenced cache is
deleted and a mergeable cache merged when it is unlocked. This
removes the "busy" state of a cache and simplifies the page fault
code.
* Added VMAnonymousCache, which will implement swap support (work by
Zhao Shuai). It is not integrated and used yet, though.
* Enabled the mutex/recursive lock holder asserts.
* Fixed DoublyLinkedList::Swap().
* Generalized the low memory handler to a low resource handler. And made
semaphores and reserved memory handled resources. Made
vm_try_resource_memory() optionally wait (with timeout), and used that
feature to reserve memory for areas.

though until we use ACPI for proper PCI IRQ routing through the IO APIC.
Therefore the IO APIC code path is not yet enabled and the IO APIC isn't used.
ISA interrupts would work though, as would PCI interrupts if you'd hardcode
them for your specific configuration.
Note that this change also modifies some parts in the bootloader and in the PIC
setup to make local APICs available even on non-SMP systems. This causes APIC
timers to be used instead the normal PIT if it is available (also on non-SMP
configurations).
Also fixes some general errors in SMP and PIC code as well as some code cleanup.

This allows drivers to lock the memory outside of the original team context.
* create_area_etc() got a struct team as first argument, but that should have
been a team_id.
* Removed delete_area_etc() - there is already vm_delete_area() doing the same
thing.
* Renamed vm_get_address_space_by_id() to vm_get_address_space(), as there is
no other method of getting an address space.
* Removed erroneous white space.

it clear when boot_splash_set_stage() must no longer be used.
* Free the memory associated with the kernel args before starting the
init process. Unlike the original TODO stated there are quite a few
more users of the kernel args (including the boot splash screen),
hence we can't really do that earlier, unless we decide to copy the
data over to the kernel heap.

It follows the semantics of the BFS R/W lock, though, that is, if you unlock
your write lock before the read locks, the read locks effectively become
write locks, too.
* Added a mutex_transfer_lock() function that will allow you to unlock a mutex
in a different thread than the one which locked it (only matters if KDEBUG
is enabled, though).

serve, bin sizes and page size. This minimizes the amount of "large"
allocations made in heaps that don't have a bin for the allocation size
(combining multiple pages). This is desirable as such large allocations
are generally pretty inefficient, and also because it separates larger from
smaller allocations better, making the chance of a heap becoming empty higher.
For now there are three heap classes "small", "large" and "huge", with a
predefined set of bin sizes for each. This might need some finetuning later on.
Reduce the grow size to 4MB though as the allocations should now be spread
across heap classes which each grow on their own.

* _ScanPartition() now allows to restrict the disk systems to a predefined set.
* _ScanPartition() now even scans partitions that already have a disk system

* KPartition now also stores the priority of the disk system assigned to it.

* Changed the strategy vm_cache_acquire_page_cache_ref() uses to ensure
that the cache isn't deleted while trying to get a reference. Instead
of the global cache pages hash table lock, it holds the global cache
list lock now. We acquire + release this lock in delete_cache() after
removing all pages and just before deleting the object.
* Some small optimizations using the property that the cache's pages are
ordered, now (vm_cache_resize(), vm_page_write_modified_page_range(),
vm_page_schedule_write_page_range()).

a flattened argument/environment buffer now. This simplifies the work
for the kernel a bit, since it can just copy the buffer and check
whether it looks OK instead of messing around with individual strings.
The runtime loader also gets a flattened array.
* Set the maximum size of the arguments/environment buffer to 128 KB.
When more arguments are passed, we fail with a proper error code
(instead of just truncating the arguments as before).
* On exec*() the first argument was silently replaced by the given path
name, which is not correct.

* When waiting for a grow to happen, notify the waiting thread from the grower
also if it failed to allocate a new heap. Otherwise a thread would just sit
there and wait until another thread requested growing too and that one
succeeded (or just forever in the worst case).
* Make the dedicated grow heap growable too. If the current grow heaps run low
on memory it will instruct the grower to allocate a new grow heap. This
reduces the likelyhood of running out of memory with no way to grow to a
minimum. As the growing is done asynchronously it is still possible to
happen, but it is highly unlikely as the grow heap is solely used to
allocate memory in the process of creating new heap areas and it will even
try using normal public memory if the dedicated memory has run out.
* Reduced the dedicated grow heap from 2 to 1MB. As it can now grow itself, it
doesn't need to last so long.
* Extract heap creation into it's own function that does area creation and heap
attach and use this function for growing normal and grow heaps.

and remove the then unneeded mutex_init() for them.
* Remove the workaround for allowing uninitialized mutexes on kernel startup.
As they are all initialized statically through the MUTEX_INITIALIZER() now
this is not needed anymore.
* An uninitialized mutex will now cause a panic when used to find possibly
remaining cases.
* Remove now unnecessary driver_settings_init_post_sem() function.

* Cleanup the license header and add authors
* Sort the available keymaps list in the config file and add 'dv'

keymap there too.
* Add a config header where one can select what KDL keymap should be used
(currently only 'us' and 'sg' are available though).
* Provide a third keymap that is used when the alt modifier is used (the swiss
german keymap is pretty useless without alt as all the useful keys like
backslash and curly braces use alt).
Our KDL is so powerful and nice to use, the only thing that bothered me was
that I always had to think about where some of the special keys are located in
the US keymap. So this simple compile-time keymap switching provided to be
helpful for me and might be for others too. Keymaps for other layouts obviously
have to be written before this becomes really useful.

* The VESA driver now supports gettings the EDID information as well; this
is necessary now, since the app_server no longer takes over the mode the
boot loader had chosen.
* Note, we might want to do this via vm86 instead in the future, and remove
the kernel part again.

B_DEBUG_SPINLOCK_CONTENTION is defined to 1. It typedefs spinlock to a
structure (thus breaking BeOS binary compatibility), containing a
counter which is incremented whenever a thread has to wait for the
spinlock.
* Added macros for spinlock initialization and access and changed
code using spinlocks accordingly. This breaks compilation for BeOS --
the macros should be defined in the respective compatibility wrappers.
* Added generic syscall to get the spinlock counters for the thread and
the team spinlocks.

pipes in the shell, though the semantics is a little different: The
second command is invoked whenever the first command has written a
complete line. The line is passed as last argument to the second
command. The new command flag B_KDEBUG_PIPE_FINAL_RERUN causes the
second command to be invoked again (with NULL argument) after the
first command is done.
* Added kprintf_unfiltered() and kputs_unfiltered() which bypass the
pipe mechanism and directly print to the bluescreen/serial output.
* Moved most commands from debug.cpp to the new
debug_builtin_commands.cpp.
* B_KDEBUG_DONT_PARSE_ARGUMENTS commands don't get an argument anymore,
if it would consist of white space only.
* Added new debugger command return value B_KDEBUG_ERROR, which
indicates that executing the command failed. This return code will
abort a complete pipe.
* Since debugger commands can nest (i.e. one command can invoke another
one) the setjmp()/longjmp() mechanism to restore the stack after a
page fault in a command needs more than one jump buffer.
* Added abort_debugger_command(), which longjmp()s out of the currently
executed command. This will also abort the current pipe.
* When pagination is enabled pressing "a" will abort the running command
(as opposed to "q" which only disables the blue screen output, but
lets the command continue).
* Added debugger commands:
- "grep" which can be used to filter output by pattern. Removed the
"filter" command and the underlying mechanism that did that before.
- "head" which prints only the first lines of output of another
command.
- "wc" counts lines, words, and characters of another command's
output.

a dedicated death stack. We might consider moving more cleanup work to
the undertaker, but that seems a little more involved.

cannot fail anymore, and it is possible to use recursive locks in the
early boot process (even uninitialized, if in BSS), which simplifies
things a little.

* Moved devfs from fs/ to device_manager/, and separated the legacy driver
support from it.
* Removed fast_log module.
* There are a couple of (temporary) regressions, though:
- legacy SATA and ISA IDE support is disabled, the drivers haven't been
ported yet.
- The not yet used ATA bus manager hasn't been ported yet, either.
- AHCI changes have not been tested.
- the listdev command has been removed from the build (as it currently
doesn't work anymore).
- device manager generated IDs currently are not freed anymore when a device
node is removed.
- generic drivers can't yet use the new driver architecture.
- simple busses that do not support device types won't work yet.
- legacy driver publishing/unpublishing (ie. what USB needs) has not been
tested, and may be broken.

vm_page_write_modified_pages(), save that it only writes pages in the
given range.
* Added vm_page_schedule_write_page_range() which schedules all modified
pages in the given cache's range for writing by the page writer.

* The new function vm86_do_int(struct vm86_state *state, uint8 vec) provides a
facility to call BIOS interupt handlers. The function must only be called from
a user thread context because the lower 1MB of the address space is used.

Changed condition variables so that it is allowed to block (e.g. lock
mutexes etc.) between Add() and Wait(). This fixes#2059, since the
block writer used them this way and could thusly fail to wait for a
condition variable, causing a temporary stack object to be used past its
lifetime.

to contain headers shared by kernel and userland (mainly libroot).
* Moved quite a few private kernel headers to the new location. Split
several kernel headers into a shared part and one that is still kernel
private. Adjusted all affected Jamfiles and source in the standard x86
build accordingly. The build for other architectures and for test code
may be broken.
* Quite a bit of userland code still includes private kernel headers.
Mostly those are <util/*> headers. The ones that aren't strictly
kernel-only should be moved to some other place (maybe
headers/private/shared/util).

address space that is fully locked and marked B_KERNEL_AREA. It can
thus be accessed by the kernel without additional checks.
* For each userland thread we do create a user_thread structure in that
area. The structure is accessible from userland via TLS, using the
private get_user_thread() function.
* Introduced private userland functions [un]defer_signals(). They can be
used to cheaply disable/re-enable signal delivery. They use the
user_thread::defer_signals/pending_signals fields which are
checked/updated by the kernel.

* Added BDiskDeviceRoster::GetDiskSystem() method, that can get a disk system
by short/pretty/module name - since they should all be unique, I put them
in a single namespace, please complain if you don't like that :-)
* Cleaned up DiskSystem.h and DiskDeviceRoster.h according to the updated

new user thread.

not the length of the buffer.
git-svn-id: file:///srv/svn/repos/haiku/haiku/trunk@25382 a95241bf-73f2-0310-859d-f6bbb57e9c96
* Changed the semantics of unnamed semaphores. Before parent and child
of a fork() would always share an earlier created semaphore. Now we do
that only, if the "shared" parameter of sem_init() was true. That's
still not quite the behavior Linux and Solaris have, but should be
perfectly fine with how reasonable code would use the API.
* There's a global table for shared unnamed semaphores now. ATM a
semaphore is leaked when no one explicitly destroys it (just as with
named sems).
* Enforce per-team and global semaphore number limits.
git-svn-id: file:///srv/svn/repos/haiku/haiku/trunk@25362 a95241bf-73f2-0310-859d-f6bbb57e9c96

* Trivial adjustments of code using mutexes. Mostly removing the
mutex_init() return value check.
* Added mutex_lock_threads_locked(), which is called with the threads
spinlock being held. The spinlock is released while waiting, of
course. This function is useful in cases where the existence of the
mutex object is ensured by holding the threads spinlock.
* Changed the two instances in the VFS code where an IO context of
another team needs to be locked to use mutex_lock_threads_locked().
Before it required a semaphore-based mutex implementation.

that can unlock the mutex, so one bit is sufficient.
* Added cutex_init_etc() which has an additional "flags" parameter.
The only specifyable flag is CUTEX_FLAG_CLONE_NAME, which causes the
function to strdup() the given name and free() its copy in
cutex_destroy().
* cutex_destroy() does now unblock waiting threads.

name, couldn't resist :-P). It's semantically equivalent to a mutex,
but doesn't need a semaphore (it uses thread blocking and a simple
queue instead). Initialization can't fail. In fact it is ready to use
without initialization when living in the bss segment, also in the
early boot process. It's as fast as a benaphore in cases of low lock
contention, and faster otherwise. Only disadvantage is the higher
immediate memory footprint of 16 bytes.
* Changed how the "thread" and "threads" debugger commands list the
objects they are waiting for. Cutexes are also included.

This removes a race condition when concurrent threads would notify at
the same time.

* Made the pointers const.
* Changed how the ARP module maintains its arp_entry::request_buffer: it
now uses the atomic_pointer*() functions to make sure there is no race
condition, and it's deleted only once.
* Getting an ARP entry would return uninitialized data, if the entry hadn't
been resolved yet.

64-bit safe version of atomic_test_and_set() for pointers:
atomic_pointer_test_and_set().

kernel this way).

git-svn-id: file:///srv/svn/repos/haiku/haiku/trunk@25215 a95241bf-73f2-0310-859d-f6bbb57e9c96
* Added "mode" parameter to set_paranoia_check(), which specifies
whether the check is supposed to already exist/not exist yet. This
allows for, as it turns out, very useful additional tests. Added
{ADD,UPDATE}_PARANOIA_CHECK macros that imply the used "mode"
parameter.
* PARANOIA_SLOT_COUNT was accidentally redefined in the source file.
* Fixed remove_paranoia_check(). It didn't remove anything.
git-svn-id: file:///srv/svn/repos/haiku/haiku/trunk@25207 a95241bf-73f2-0310-859d-f6bbb57e9c96
* Added capture_tracing_stack_trace() which allocates space in the
tracing buffer and captures the stack trace according to the given
parameters.
* Added TraceOutput::PrintStackTrace() to print a stack trace thus
created.
* Added TraceEntry::DumpStackTrace() callback which is supposed to print
a stack trace for the entry, if it can do that.
* Added "--stacktrace" switch to the "traced" command, which causes the
stack traces for all entries that have one to be printed as well.
git-svn-id: file:///srv/svn/repos/haiku/haiku/trunk@25205 a95241bf-73f2-0310-859d-f6bbb57e9c96

Init() on those, and add entries directly with the
ConditionVariable::Add() method.
git-svn-id: file:///srv/svn/repos/haiku/haiku/trunk@25110 a95241bf-73f2-0310-859d-f6bbb57e9c96
* Made the object pointer passed to thread_prepare_to_block() const, so
that strings can be passed without casting. Passing a string could
maybe be made a convention for THREAD_BLOCK_TYPE_OTHER.

* Changed sigwait() and sigsuspend() to use thread_block() instead of a

thread_block(), thread_unblock(),...) that allow a thread to wait for
something without needing a semaphore or condition variable. It can
simply block and another thread can unblock it. Supports timeouts and
interrupting. Both semaphores and condition variables use this
common mechanism, now.
* Semaphores:
- Some simplifications due to the thread blocking mechanism.
- Changed locking order to sem -> thread. It was the other way around
before and when introducing the wait_for_objects() support I had
also introduced a situation where the locking was reverse, which
could potentially cause a dead lock on SMP systems.
- Instead of queueing thread structures, a semaphore queues
queued_thread entries now, which are created on the stack. The
thread::sem structure could thus be removed.
- Added sem_entry::net_count, which is sem_entry::count plus the
acquisition count of all waiting threads. This number is needed in
remove_thread_from_sem() and instead of computing it there we
maintain it.
- Fixed remove_thread_from_sem(). It would not unblock threads, if
the sem count was <= 0.
- Made sem::last_acquirer unconditional. It is actually needed for
sem_info::latest_holder. Fixed fill_sem_info() accordingly.
- Added some optional tracing output, though only via ktrace_printf().
* Condition variables:
- Could be simplified significantly through the use of the thread
blocking mechanism. Removed a good deal of unnecessary code.
- Moved the ConditionVariableEntry "flags" parameter from Wait() to
Add(), and adjusted all places where condition variables are used
accordingly.
* snooze() uses thread_block_with_timeout() instead of a semaphore.
* Simplified thread interrupting in the signal and user debugger code.
Instead of separate functions for threads waiting on a semaphore or
condititon variable, we only have a single thread_interrupt(), now.
git-svn-id: file:///srv/svn/repos/haiku/haiku/trunk@25099 a95241bf-73f2-0310-859d-f6bbb57e9c96
- If the hook of the timer we're cancelling is currently being
executed, we do now wait till it is finished. This is how the BeBook
specifies the function to behave.
- Periodic timers would not be cancelled, if their hook was being
invoked at the same time, since they weren't in the queue during
that time.
- Since we know the CPU on which the timer is scheduled (timer::cpu),
we don't have to look through any other CPU queue to find it.
- Fixed the return value. It should report whether the timer had
already fired, and was not always doing that.
* Added private add_timer() flag B_TIMER_ACQUIRE_THREAD_LOCK. It causes
the thread spinlock to be acquired before the event hook is called.
cancel_timer() doesn't wait for timers with the flag set. Instead we
check in the timer interrupt function after acquiring the thread
spinlock whether the timer was cancelled in the meantime. Calling
cancel_timer() with the thread spinlock being held does thus avoid any
race conditions and won't deadlock, if the event hook needs to acquire
the thread spinlock, too. This feature proves handy for some kernel
internal needs.
* The scheduler uses a B_TIMER_ACQUIRE_THREAD_LOCK timer now and
cancel_timer() instead of the no longer needed
_local_timer_cancel_event().

* Renamed syscall sys_vm_map_file() to _kern_map_file() and changed the
path to an FD parameter. Changed vm_map_file() accordingly and
adjusted the kernel ELF loader and the runtime loader.
* Added syscall _kern_unmap_memory().
* Added bool unmapAddressRange parameter to vm_create_anonymous_area()
and map_backing_store(). If true and the address specification is
B_EXACT_ADDRESS, all areas in the specified address range will be
deleted (unless an area is covered only partially).
* Introduced B_SHARED_AREA flag, which is set on areas that have been
created by {vm,_user}_map_file() with REGION_NO_PRIVATE_MAP. When
fork()ing those areas won't be copied CoW, but rather be cloned. This
is needed for mmap() MAP_SHARED.
* {vm,_user}_map_file() also accept an FD argument < 0, in which case an
anonymous area is created.
* Implemented mmap() and munmap(). Currently there's the restriction
that we can't partially unmap areas. Otherwise the functions should be
rather compliant. We also support the non-POSIX extension
MAP_ANONYMOUS.

reason to check the flag at all, since we know we set it.

* Changed common_fcntl() to also work for non-vnode-based FDs. Only the
operations that require a vnode do fail now. F_SETFL uses the new
fd_ops::set_flags() if available, falling back to the vnode respective
operation.
* Changed some direct accesses to file_descriptor::u::vnode. It was safe
in those cases, but might not be anymore if we ever change fd_vnode().
ftp can at least connect to servers again, now, but apparently we still
have a problem with syscall restarts -- downloads fail after one second,
when the timer goes off.

syscall_restart_ioctl_is_restarted() to syscall_restart_is_restarted,
IoctlSyscallFlagUnsetter to SyscallFlagUnsetter, and
IoctlSyscallRestartWrapper to SyscallRestartWrapper, as they are no
longer only used for ioctl().
* Removed unused syscall_restart_ioctl_handle_post().
* Made SyscallRestartWrapper a lot fancier. Instead of storing a
reference to the result value, it stores the value itself, and it
features all the interesting operators that make it appear like that
value. This simplifies the use of the class quite a bit.
* THREAD_FLAGS_SYSCALL is now set for all socket function and the
read[v](), write[v]() syscalls.
* Added is_syscall() function and net_stack hook to the net stack.
* Removed "kernel" parameter from all net_stack_interface and net_socket
module hooks. They aren't need any longer, since is_syscall() can be
used instead.

- The net_stack driver is no longer used. Instead we have a kernel
module which is directly used by syscall implementations in the
kernel. I.e. we no longer tunnel those functions through ioctls, but
have normal syscalls.
- Removed the superfluous net starter module.
- Implemented the FDTYPE_SOCKET type file_descriptors, that is sockets
are no longer vnode based.
- Adjusted libnetwork (the socket function implementations)
accordingly.
- Adjusted netstat accordingly.
* Socket module:
- Implemented socketpair().
- Added "kernel" parameter to the control hook. Quite a few more hooks
would actually need the parameter, but I didn't change those yet,
since that would probably also require changes to the protocol
module interface.
git-svn-id: file:///srv/svn/repos/haiku/haiku/trunk@24908 a95241bf-73f2-0310-859d-f6bbb57e9c96
* Revised the RLE algorithm used for compressing the boot splash artwork to
handle uncompressed runs.
* Compress the RGB channels separately for improved efficiency.

FIFO. Reimplemented pipe() to use it.
* pipefs is no longer mounted. Will remove the superfluous code soon.
git-svn-id: file:///srv/svn/repos/haiku/haiku/trunk@24823 a95241bf-73f2-0310-859d-f6bbb57e9c96
- Moved most file_system_module_info hooks into separate structures.
Those that operate on mounted volumes to fs_volume_ops, those
operating on a vnode to fs_vnode_ops.
- Got rid of the fs_volume, fs_cookie, fs_vnode typedefs. We use void*
again.
- Instead of a void* volume and node cookie hooks are passed a
fs_volume and fs_vnode structure pointer, which contain the cookie
and an ops pointer (fs_volume a few more things).
- The VFS {new,publish,get,...}_vnode() functions take a fs_volume*
instead of the volume ID. So does vfs_get_fs_node_from_path().
- Added type and flags arguments to publish_vnode() and the
get_vnode() hook and removed the type argument from lookup() hook.
Added vnode::type using formerly unused bits to store the node type.
Simplified a few things in the VFS due to the now always available
node type.
- Added fs_volume_ops::{create,delete}_sub_vnode() and
fs_vnode_ops::get_super_vnode() hooks. They are used to support file
system layers, e.g. allowing to extend an FS not supporting BeOS
attribute with attribute support. Needs some more work in the VFS.
- Added fs_vnode_ops::create_special_node() hook for creating special
nodes (e.g. FIFOs).
* Adjusted the built-in file systems and BFS according to the interface
changes. Removed all other FSs from the image for the time being.
We'll see whether further API changes are necessary before porting
them.
* Adjusted the bfs_shell accordingly.
* Implemented create_special_node() in rootfs to support special nodes.
* Added support for FIFOs:
- Added syscall _kern_create_fifo() (used by mkfifo()), which creates
a special node (type S_IFIFO) in the respective file system.
- When a special node is published the VFS creates a respective sub
node. Currently only FIFOs are supported.
- Added a little support for FIFO subnodes by using functionality from
the pipefs.
- Added mkfifo to the image. It can create FIFOs in the rootfs, but
the FIFOs aren't really usable ATM, since they still work like
pipes, i.e. readers and writers need to have them open at the same
time.
* Some smaller changes in the VFS:
- Made the *_CALL macros nicer to use (vargs).
- Refactored FS entry lookup into new function lookup_dir_entry().
- create_vnode() no longer just calls the FS create() hook. First it
looks up the entry and uses open_vnode(), if it already exists. This
is necessary for two reasons: 1) The FS might not support create()
while still allowing to open() entries. 2) When the FS has other
layers on to of it (or the respective node) it might not be
responsible for opening the node.

and ino_t instead of a path. Supposed to work with node monitoring messages.
Took the name from vfs_entry_ref_to_path() that takes the same arguments, but
suggestions for a better name are welcome.

* Implemented RLE compression for the boot splash images, resulting in
smaller kernel and boot loader.
* Only the boot loader contains the RLE compressed images, the decompressed
buffer for the icons is passed to the kernel via kernel args.

The dividing line is back although with a little more spacing. Also the icon
spacing is a little increased and I added a subtle outline as well as a little
brighter background for the active icon look. The placement logic is now not
independant of each other anymore, otherwise I couldn't center both images
as a unit. But only the vertical placement is affected.
Comments as always on the commit mailing list... :-)

* Added {Create|Delete}Device() analogous to {Create|Delete}FileDevice
* Added a small DeviceWatcher class that reacts to entry creation/removal
* Implemented a way to start/stop node monitoring
* Start watching for devices after the boot volume has been mounted and the
the second initial scan was run
The disk device manager now creates and scans a device when a "raw" node is
published and deletes the device on removal. This makes hot-plugging of disk
devices (for example memory sticks using usb_disk) work. Their partitions will
be scanned and published so they can be mounted. Somehow the removal of the
partitions does not yet work however, any insights are welcome.

the icons are centered.
* The boot loader and kernel now use the placement info that
generate_boot_screen now generates.
* Made the code that draws the images handle the case where any of the images
is larger than the frame buffer.
* All drawing functions need to know the image width (analogous for bytes per
row).

item entry.
* The bios_ia32 video platform code now stores the available VESA modes in
the new vesa_modes kernel_args field.
* When configuring a VESA mode via settings file, it's no longer needed to
specify the exact mode - the closest available mode is now used. This should
help with bug #1962.
* frame_buffer_console_init() now also creates a boot_item for the VESA modes
in the kernel_args.
* The VESA accelerant now filters the mode list to only contain modes that
are actually supported.
* Moved non-shared vesa driver data into its own file vesa_private.h.

- Added a "root" vnode to the io_context. It is used for resolving
paths and converting nodes to paths instead of sRoot. Some more
passing around of io_context structures was necessary.
- Introduced a new lock sIOContextRootLock to protect
io_context::root. The current uses of io_context::io_mutex
(put_vnode(), remove_vnode() while holding it) looked too suspicious
to use that mutex in vnode_path_to_vnode().
- Added _kern_change_root() syscall and chroot() libroot function.
- Added chroot coreutils program to the image. Funnily it seems to be
much easier to set up a little jail than under Linux (just copy
bash and libroot.so into respective subdirs; mount another pipefs
if you want pipe support).
With Haiku allowing direct access to directories via inode IDs
jailing is obviously not very secure at the moment.
- Added /var/empty to the image. It will be the chroot target for ssh.
* Changed vfs.cpp:get_cwd() so that the io_context::io_mutex is no
longer held when calling dir_vnode_to_path().
git-svn-id: file:///srv/svn/repos/haiku/haiku/trunk@24673 a95241bf-73f2-0310-859d-f6bbb57e9c96
- The kernel stores the group IDs in the team structure. They are
correctly inherited on fork() and load_image_etc().
- Implemented getgroups() for real, i.e. it retrieves the groups
associated with the process.
- Implemented setgroups(), initgroups() and (the BSDish)
getgrouplist(). The latter two read the group information from the
"group database" /etc/group (if existing).
- Change the BIND port config, since we do have getgrouplist() now.
* The set-uid feature was broken when the path to the executable was
relative, since we used stat(), which, in the kernel, uses the kernel
IO context.

finally created a solution to avoid that: Header files that contain
configuration settings (and nothing else) go to build/config_headers.
To change settings, create a directory build/user_config_headers (which
is ignored by svn), copy the respective header there and modify it at
your leisure. Currently only tracing_config.h has been moved to the new
location, but more files will follow eventually. It is also recommended
to move optional macro definitions in Jamfile (as for BFS) to a config
header instead; the build system will then automatically rebuild on
changes.

* Add a cached_pages field to the system_info structure, and change the
meaning of the used_pages field to not include cached pages.

* 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.

longer.

* Fixed the icons image, it was upside down.
* Support the new 24 bit boot screen images in the boot_loader and the kernel.

* Added the feature of an animated boot screen (icons lighting up at
different boot stages).
* Added first version of new boot splash images, generated by the new
hsbg tool. (Also finally contains the "new" Haiku logo.)
changes by myself:
* Added Artur to the contributors list in About System.
* Fixed some left overs in the patch, kept tracing turned off.
TODO:
* Remove the need for hard coding the icon positions. (Maybe generate
those from hsbg and put them into images.h? Have user provide icon
spacing/offsets at the command line for hsbg?)
* Rename the stages to something meaningful.
* Use hsbg as a build system tool and generate images.h during build
from PNGs provided in the artwork folder.

fork(), load_image(), and exec().

transfering the area, the area is cloned into the target teams' address space

* driver_entry::api_version now stores the actual version instead of a
pointer to it.
* Renamed node_path_entry to path_entry and reused it for driver
reloading: handle_driver_events() will now also check for drivers to
add in the sDriversToAdd list.
* Added new devfs_driver_added(), and devfs_driver_removed() functions
that trigger certain driver actions.
* Implemented notifying devfs on B_ENTRY_CREATED, B_ENTRY_REMOVED, and
B_ENTRY_MOVED events in probe.cpp. The watched directory inode numbers
are now stored in a hash for B_ENTRY_MOVED.
* unpublish_driver() did not actually delete the node, it only marked
it removable since we never get/put the node. We now do, and so the
node is actually removed as intended.
* Added "devfs_driver" KDL command.

* 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.

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.
Add options to dump the dedicated grow heap and to only print the current heap
count to the "heap" debugger command.
git-svn-id: file:///srv/svn/repos/haiku/haiku/trunk@23994 a95241bf-73f2-0310-859d-f6bbb57e9c96
but there's a special handling for 0 us relative timeouts. Syscalls
usually return B_WOULD_BLOCK instead of B_TIMED_OUT in this case, and
callers might explicitely check for it. Hence we don't convert 0 us
timeouts anymore. gdb works again.
git-svn-id: file:///srv/svn/repos/haiku/haiku/trunk@23989 a95241bf-73f2-0310-859d-f6bbb57e9c96
* 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.
git-svn-id: file:///srv/svn/repos/haiku/haiku/trunk@23983 a95241bf-73f2-0310-859d-f6bbb57e9c96
* 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.

missed something).
* Added sys/file.h and the flock() system call.
* common_fcntl() could forget to put back the file descriptor on some error
conditions (I guess we should introduce and use a DescriptorGetter class).

* While this is not a really good idea for a lock with supposedly little
contention, but it'll fix bug #1731. I haven't tested it yet, but will
do so in a minute :-)
* I will need to rework the slab anyway so that it's possible to use it
as a replacement for our heap, and then I'll switch back to a benaphore
again.

destination of the message and it's "what" field are stored. It might be
nice to also get some info about its fields -- maybe as an additional
option.

* The kernel now opens up to 8 debugger modules (and puts them into an array;
maybe we'll want to switch to a doubly linked list when there is the need).
* Implemented an example debugger module that prints a stack trace of the
current thread when the kernel debugger is entered (not included in the
image).

For commands with this flag set, the parser won't parse the
arguments provided (it will only check for matching parentheses and
brackets), but will pass the unparsed argument list string to the
command instead.
* Set the new flag for the "expr" command, so one doesn't have to quote
the expression to evaluate anymore (or put it in parentheses).
* Fixed tokenizing of quoted and unquoted strings in expression mode.

* Removed the public hash_grow() function again (at least for now, it's only
private).
* Removed the newSize argument from hash_grow(); it will compute the new size
automatically.
* The block cache is now using hash_insert_grow() instead of hash_insert()
which should make hash lookups much faster with some 10 thousand blocks,
also increased the initial table size from 32 to 1024...

kSyscallParametersInfos to kExtendedSyscallInfos) and added "name"
field. Now the classes for syscall kernel tracing don't need to lookup
the syscall function symbol anymore, which speeds up printing/filtering
of those entries dramatically.

is recorded in a kernel trace entry (if tracing is enabled).

* Added "printteam" switch to "traced" command, enabling the printing of
the team ID.
* Added "team" filter to the "traced" command expression language.

write code aligned to what one has written in the comment (or the
other way around).
* Made trace_entry structure doubly linked, by introducing a
previous_size member. By using bit fields, shrinking the flags field
to 4 bits, and not saving the lower two bits of size and previous_size
(which are always 0 due to alignment), the structure remains 4 byte
sized and can still address the same entry size.
* kBufferSize is no longer one less than it could be.
* "traced" command:
- Use static variable for the iteration state rather then cluttering
the temporary debug variable name space.
- The <count> parameter can now be negative, in which case the entries
before (and including) <start> are printed.
- Added a new optional parameter, specifying the maximal number of
entries to be filtered. Filtered iteration is beautifully
comfortable now.

* Add platform methods for timer as it is platform dependent.

boolean operators ("not", "and", "or") and filters matching thread IDs
or contained strings.
I'm still not fully happy with the command. It should be possible to
define a filter and then comfortably scroll through the matching
entries. Currently having to specify an index range of the unfiltered
entries is rather unhandy in combination with filtering.
