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.

be put into a boot_item in frame_buffer_console_init().
* 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.

remains. This replaces the previous mechanism of switching the thread to
a dedicated death stack. We might consider moving more cleanup work to
the undertaker, but that seems a little more involved.

* Adjusted code using recursive locks respectively. The initialization
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.

* Use vm86 mode to call the VESA BIOS to do the actual mode switching by
providing an ioctl in the vesa driver.
* Fix vm86.h.
git-svn-id: file:///srv/svn/repos/haiku/haiku/trunk@25680 a95241bf-73f2-0310-859d-f6bbb57e9c96
* 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.
* Added _kern_sync_memory() syscall and the msync() POSIX function.
git-svn-id: file:///srv/svn/repos/haiku/haiku/trunk@25620 a95241bf-73f2-0310-859d-f6bbb57e9c96
* 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.
git-svn-id: file:///srv/svn/repos/haiku/haiku/trunk@25610 a95241bf-73f2-0310-859d-f6bbb57e9c96
* Add a "fault_callback" to the thread structure which is called when a
unhandled page fault happens in user space. A SIGSEGV will only be sent
if the callback returns "true".

* In vm86 mode CS will have arbitrary values so we check for both USER_CODE_SEG
and the VM flag in EFLAGS. This is also done when entering interrupt gates.

compatible with what our code assumed (pointers to objects of
TraceEntry and its POD base class trace_entry aren't identical
anymore).
* Added optional stack traces for ktrace_printf() output in the kernel.

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.

git-svn-id: file:///srv/svn/repos/haiku/haiku/trunk@25450 a95241bf-73f2-0310-859d-f6bbb57e9c96
* 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
header guidelines.
* Renamed ntfs pretty name from "ntfs File System" to "Windows NT File System".

arguments they get a single thread_creation_attributes structure now.
* Added stack_address and stack_size to thread_creation_attributes,
which allow to specify the stack size or the stack to be used for the
new user thread.
git-svn-id: file:///srv/svn/repos/haiku/haiku/trunk@25389 a95241bf-73f2-0310-859d-f6bbb57e9c96
* Fixed operator=(): the second argument of SetTo() is a boolean (normalize),
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
not supposed to be passed to pathconf() or sysconf().
* Added POSIX semaphore related macros.

* Allow userland teams to create areas below 1 MB when requested specifically.
* Note, this is a temporary solution - see the comments in the code.
git-svn-id: file:///srv/svn/repos/haiku/haiku/trunk@25358 a95241bf-73f2-0310-859d-f6bbb57e9c96
* Renamed the old kernel_posix[_arch...].o to kernel_lib_posix...

Realtime option group). The implementation should be complete, but is
totally untested yet.
git-svn-id: file:///srv/svn/repos/haiku/haiku/trunk@25326 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.
git-svn-id: file:///srv/svn/repos/haiku/haiku/trunk@25283 a95241bf-73f2-0310-859d-f6bbb57e9c96
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.

the selecting thread, which has obviously no effect.
* Changed select_info::events to vint32. It is now updated atomically.
This removes a race condition when concurrent threads would notify at
the same time.
git-svn-id: file:///srv/svn/repos/haiku/haiku/trunk@25273 a95241bf-73f2-0310-859d-f6bbb57e9c96
* 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.
