946325051b * Added boolean "alreadyWired" parameter to vm_map_physical_memory().
* ioapic_init(): map_physical_memory() was called for already mapped
  addresses. This worked fine, but only because the x86 page mapping code
  didn't mind.

451ca8b4b4 PAGE_TYPE_GUARD was unused and for the other two types a simple one bit flag
suffices. Therefore replaced vm_page::type by vm_page::is_dummy.

d7455de2f6 allocate_page_run(): Use temporary lists to store the pages we're allocating.
This makes appending the pages to the active queue more efficient and we
don't need the vm_page::is_cleared bit anymore.

14429e896e Reverted the part of r31520 that made devfs_unpublish_partition() take a raw
device path + child partition name. When a "raw" device is unpublished the node
removal notification triggers the partition and child partitions to be
unpublished/removed. Since in that case the "raw" node is already unpublished
trying to resolve it in devfs_unpublish_partition() again to unpublish the child
partitions would fail, leaving the child partition nodes behind. When a new raw
device would then become available publishing its partitions would fail because
of these left behind nodes, causing bug #4587. Seeing that this code is more
compact and straight forward anyway I don't quite see why it was changed in the
first place.

8ab820f076 VMAddressSpace::Put() is too hot to always write lock the address spaces
table. It is now inline and uses double-checked locking. This reduces the
contention on the lock to insignificant. Total -j8 Haiku image build speedup
is marginal, but the total kernel time drops 12%.

3cd2094396 * Added new debug feature (DEBUG_PAGE_ACCESS) to detect invalid concurrent
access to a vm_page. It is basically an atomically accessed thread ID field
  in the vm_page structure, which is explicitly set by macros marking the
  critical sections. As a first positive effect I had to review quite a bit of
  code and found several issues.
* Added several TODOs and comments. Some harmless ones, but also a few
  troublesome ones in vm.cpp regarding page unmapping.
* file_cache: PrecacheIO::Prepare()/read_into_cache: Removed superfluous
  vm_page_allocate_page() return value checks. It cannot fail anymore.
* Removed the heavily contended "pages" lock. We use different policies now:
  - sModifiedTemporaryPages is accessed atomically.
  - sPageDeficitLock and sFreePageCondition are protected by a new mutex.
  - The page queues have individual locks (mutexes).
  - Renamed set_page_state_nolock() to set_page_state(). Unless the caller says
    otherwise, it does now lock the affected pages queues itself. Also changed
    the return value to void -- we panic() anyway.
* set_page_state(): Add free/clear pages to the beginning of their respective
  queues as this is more cache-friendly.
* Pages with the states PAGE_STATE_WIRED or PAGE_STATE_UNUSED are no longer
  in any queue. They were in the "active" queue, but there's no good reason
  to have them there. In case we decide to let the page daemon work the queues
  (like FreeBSD) they would just be in the way.
* Pulled the common part of vm_page_allocate_page_run[_no_base]() into a helper
  function. Also fixed a bug I introduced previously: The functions must not
  vm_page_unreserve_pages() on success, since they remove the pages from the
  free/clear queue without decrementing sUnreservedFreePages.
* vm_page_set_state(): Changed return type to void. The function cannot really
  fail and no-one was checking it anyway.
* vm_page_free(), vm_page_set_state(): Added assertion: The page must not be
  free/clear before. This is implied by the policy that no-one is allowed to
  access free/clear pages without holding the respective queue's lock, which is
  not the case at this point. This found the bug fixed in r34912.
* vm_page_requeue(): Added general assertions. panic() when requeuing of
  free/clear pages is requested. Same reason as above.
* vm_clone_area(), B_FULL_LOCK case: Don't map busy pages. The implementation is
  still not correct, though.

My usual -j8 Haiku build test runs another 10% faster, now. The total kernel
time drops about 18%. As hoped the new locks have only a fraction of the old
"pages" lock contention. Other locks lead the "most wanted list" now.

  potential errors.
* Added Insert{Before,After}() methods and declared the Insert() version
  with the InsertBefore() semantics obsolete.

2ea2527fe4 R/W lock implementation:
* Changed the rw_lock_{read,write}_unlock() return values to void. They
  returned a value != B_OK only in case of user error and no-one checked them
  anyway.
* Optimized rw_lock_read_[un]lock(). They are inline now and as long as
  there's no contending write locker, they will only perform an atomic_add().
* Changed the semantics of nested locking after acquiring a write lock: Read
  and write locks are counted separately, so read locks no longer implicitly
  become write locks. This does e.g. make degrading a write lock to a read
  lock by way of read_lock + write_unlock (as used in the VM) actually work.

These changes speed up the -j8 Haiku image build on my machine by a few
percent, but more interestingly they reduce the total kernel time by 25 %.
Apparently we get more contention on other locks, now.

eb8dc1ebfb * Removed DEBUG_PAGE_CACHE_TRANSITIONS debugging.
* Added VMCache::MovePage() and MoveAllPages() to move pages between caches.
* VMAnonymousCache:
  - _MergeSwapPages(): Avoid doing anything, if neither cache has swapped out
    pages.
  - _MergeSwapPages() does now also remove source cache pages that are
    shadowed by consumer swap pages. This allows us to call _MergeSwapPages()
    before _MergePagesSmallerSource(), save the swap page shadowing check
    there and get rid of the vm_page::merge_swap flag. This is an
    optimization based on the assumption that usually none or only few pages
    are swapped out, so we save a lot of checks.
  - Implemented _MergePagesSmallerConsumer() as an alternative to
    _MergePagesSmallerSource(). The former is used when the source cache has
    more pages than the consumer cache. It iterates over the consumer cache's
    pages, moves them to the source and finally moves all pages back to the
    consumer. The final move is relatively cheap (though unfortunately we
    still have to update all pages' vm_page::cache field), so that overall we
    save iterations of the main loop with the more expensive checks.

The optimizations particularly improve the common fork()+exec*() situations.
fork() uses CoW, which is implemented by putting two new empty caches between
the to be copied area and its cache. exec*() destroys one copy of the area,
its cache and thus causes merging of the other new cache with the old cache.
Since this usually happens in a very short time, the old cache does still
contain many pages and the new cache only few. Previously the many pages were
all checked and moved individually. Now we do that for the few pages instead.

A very extreme example of this situation is the Haiku image build. jam has a
huge heap (> 200 MB) and it fork()s+exec*()s for every action to be executed.
Since during the cache merging the cache is locked, any write access to a
heap page causes jam to block until the cache merging is done. Formerly that
took so long that it killed a lot of parallelism in multi-job builds. That
could be observed particularly well when lots of small actions where executed
(like the Link, XRes, Mimeset, SetType, SetVersion combos when building
executables/libraries/add-ons). Those look dramatically better now.
The overall speed improvement for a -j8 image build on my machine is only
about 15%, though.

2e74d74f4f * Added method VMCache::TransferAreas() moving areas from one cache to
another. The code originates from vm_copy_on_write_area(). We now generate
  the VM cache tracing entries, though.
* count_writable_areas() -> VMCache::CountWritableAreas()
* Added debugger command "cache_stack" which is enabled when VM cache tracing
  is enabled. It prints the source caches of a given cache or area at the
  time of a specified tracing entry.

a38f850360 * arch_debug_get_stack_trace():
- Replaced the "userOnly" parameter by a "flags" parameter, that allows to
    specify kernel and userland stack traces individually.
  - x86, m68k: Don't always skip the first frame as that prevents the caller
    from being able to record its own address.
* capture_tracing_stack_trace(): Replaced the "userOnly" parameter by
  "kernelOnly", since one is probably always interested in the kernel stack
  trace, but might not want the userland stack trace.
* Added stack trace support for VM cache kernel tracing.

0338371f26 * All scheduler implementations:
- enqueue_in_run_queue() no longer returns whether rescheduling is supposed
    to happen. Instead is sets cpu_ent::invoke_scheduler on the current CPU.
  - reschedule() does now handle cpu_ent::invoke_scheduler_if_idle(). No need
    to let all callers do that.
* thread_unblock[_locked]() no longer return whether rescheduling is supposed
  to happen.
* Got rid of the B_INVOKE_SCHEDULER handling. The interrupt hooks really
  can't know, when it makes sense to reschedule or not.
* Introduced scheduler_reschedule_if_necessary[_locked]() functions for
  checking+invoking the scheduler.
* Some semaphore functions (e.g. delete_sem()) invoke the scheduler now, if
  they wake up anything with greater priority.
  I've also tried to add scheduler invocations in the condition variable and
  mutex/rw_lock code, but that actually has a negative impact on performance,
  probably because it causes too much ping-ponging between threads when
  multiple locking primitives are involved.

b4be7c9021 * Added cpu_ent::running_thread which is maintained by the schedulers.
* simple_smp scheduler: Rewrote the interesting part of
  enqueue_in_run_queue(). It always selects a target CPU for the inserted
  thread, now. If no CPU is idle, the CPU running the thread with the lowest
  priority is chosen. If the thread running on the target CPU has a lower
  priority than the inserted one, it will be asked to reschedule. If that's
  the current CPU, we'll return the correct value (wasn't done before at
  all).
  These changes help reducing latencies. On my machine in an idle system
  playing music DebugAnalyzer shows maximum latencies of about 1 us. I still
  find that a bit much, but it's several orders of magnitude better than
  before. The -j8 Haiku image build time dropped about 10%.

3533b6597d * Reintroduced the SMP_MSG_RESCHEDULE_IF_IDLE ICI message. This time
implemented by means of an additional member in cpu_ent.
* Removed thread::keep_scheduled and the related functions. The feature
  wasn't used yet and wouldn't have worked as implemented anyway.
* Resurrected an older, SMP aware version of our simple scheduler and made it
  the default instead of the affine scheduler. The latter is in no state to
  be used yet. It causes enormous latencies (I've seen up to 0.1s) even when
  six or seven CPUs were idle at the same time, totally killing parallelism.
  That's also the reason why a -j8 build was slower than a -j2. This is no
  longer the case. On my machine the -j2 build takes about 10% less time now
  and the -j8 build saves another 20%. The latter is not particularly
  impressive (compared with Linux), but that seems to be due to lock
  contention.

522c2f19d4 * Added a simple mechanism to wait for events to VMCache. WaitForPageEvents()
waits for certain events on a given page, NotifyPageEvents() wakes up
  waiting threads respectively.
* Used the new feature instead of condition variables for waiting on busy
  pages. We save publishing and unpublishing of a condition variable whenever
  a page is marked busy. There's only something to do, if there's at least
  one thread waiting in the list of the respective cache. The general
  assumption is that this is only rarely the case and even if it happens,
  there should be only very few threads.
* Added an apparently missing notification in cache_io(). At least I didn't
  see the reason for it not being there.

40cd019ea0 * Renamed VMAddressSpace::ResizeArea{Head,Tail}() to ShrinkArea{Head,Tail}()
to clarify that they never enlarge the area.
* Reimplemented VMKernelAddressSpace. It is somewhat inspired by Bonwick's
  vmem resource allocator (though we have different requirements):
  - We consider the complete address space to be divided into contiguous
    ranges of type free, reserved, or area, each range being represented by
    a VMKernelAddressRange object.
  - The range objects are managed in an AVL tree and a doubly linked list
    (the latter only for faster iteration) sorted by address. This provides
    O(log(n)) lookup, insertion and removal.
  - For each power of two size we maintain a list of free ranges of at least
    that size. Thus for the most common case of B_ANY*_ADDRESS area
    allocation, we find a free range in constant time (the rest of the
    processing being O(log(n))) with a rather good fit. This should also
    help avoiding address space fragmentation.
  While the new implementation should be faster, particularly with an
  increasing number of areas, I couldn't measure any difference in the -j2
  haiku build. From a cursory test the -j8 build hasn't tangibly benefitted
  either.

- Renamed to AVLTreeBase and moved it into its own header/source file.
  - Renamed FindClose() to FindClosest().
  - Added CheckTree() method for debugging purposes. It checks the validity
    of the tree.
* Added a templatized class AVLTree which doesn't offer a map-like interface
  like AVLTreeMap, but rather one similar to BOpenHashMap and SplayTree. It
  is more convenient to use, if one wants to store objects that already
  contain the key.

new derived classes VM{Kernel,User}AddressSpace. Currently those are
identical, but that will change.

38a97b2c36 Moved all knowledge of reserved areas from vm.cpp to VMAddressSpace. It's a
pure address space feature, so it should be handled there.

f69032f22b * Added VMAddressSpace::ResizeArea{Head,Tail}() to adjust an area's base
and size.
* Made VMArea::Set{Base,Size}() private and made VMAddressSpace a friend.
  In vm.cpp the new VMAddressSpace::ResizeArea{Head,Tail}() are used
  instead.
Finally all address space changes happen in VMAddressSpace only. *phew*
Now it's ready to be thoroughly butchered. :-)

35d940014e * Changed the address space area list to doubly linked. The reason is to
simplify migration of the area management, but as a side effect, it also
  makes area deletion O(1) (instead of O(n), n == number of areas in the
  address space).
* Moved more area management functionality from vm.cpp to VMAddressSpace and
  VMArea structure creation to VMArea. Made the list and list link members
  itself private.
* VMAddressSpace tracks its amount of free space, now. This also replaces
  the previous mechanism to do that only for the kernel address space. It
  was broken anyway, since delete_area() subtracted the area size instead of
  adding it.
* vm_free_unused_boot_loader_range():
  - lastEnd could be set to a value < start, which could cause memory
    outside of the given range to be unmapped. Haven't checked whether this
    could happen in practice -- if so, it would be seriously unhealthy.
  - The range between the end of the last area in the range and the end of
    the range would never be freed.
  - Fixed potential integer overflows when computing addresses.

fc7864091e Attempt at allowing to use C++ structures in C only code: We use the
CreateAsmStructOffsetsHeader mechanism to generate a header with macros
defined to the sizes of the structures we're interested in and when compiling
in C mode define the structures as "struct { char bytes[size]; }".
It works in principle, but due to how jam works, one would have to specify the
dependency to the generated header for all sources that include it directly or
indirectly.

checking the physical frame buffer location.

  need anymore to remap the memory on mode change.
* Also, this will ease the burden of the MTRRs, as the memory size will be
  properly aligned.

bb163c0289 * Added a set_mtrrs() hook to x86_cpu_module_info, which is supposed to set
all MTRRs at once.
* Added a respective x86_set_mtrrs() kernel function.
* x86 CPU module:
  - Implemented the new hook.
  - Prefixed most debug output with the CPU index. Otherwise it gets quite
    confusing with multiple CPUs.
  - generic_init_mtrrs(): No longer clear all MTRRs, if they are already
    enabled. This lets us benefit from the BIOS's setup until we install our
    own -- otherwise with caching disabled things are *really* slow.
* arch_vm.cpp: Completely rewrote the MTRR handling as the old one was not
  only slow (O(2^n)), but also broken (resulting in incorrect setups (e.g.
  with cachable ranges larger than requested)), and not working by design for
  certain cases (subtractive setups intersecting ranges added later).
  Now we maintain an array with the successfully set ranges. When a new range
  is added, we recompute the complete MTRR setup as we need to. The new
  algorithm analyzing the ranges has linear complexity and also handles range
  base addresses with an alignment not matching the range size (e.g. a range
  at address 0x1000 with size 0x2000) and joining of adjacent/overlapping
  ranges of the same type.

This fixes the slow graphics on my 4 GB machine (though unfortunately the
8 MTRRs aren't enough to fully cover the complete frame buffer (about 35
pixel lines remain uncachable), but that can't be helped without rounding up
the frame buffer size, for which we don't have enough information). It might
also fix #1823.

f28dd36b82 * The alphabet is obviously hard, moved some tracing defines at their
(hopefully) correct place.
* It seems to be even harder to understand basic locking primitives: when you
  think about it, it shouldn't surprise you that conditional variables never
  return B_WOULD_BLOCK. This fixes gdb again.
* Added tracing support to the ports subsystem.
* get_port_message() will now resize the port heap if needed (but will also
  take timeouts into account while doing so, more or less). The initial port
  space is 4MB (as before), the growth rate is the same, and the system wide
  limit is arbitrarily set to 64 MB (all swappable). A team limit has been set
  to 8 MB, but is not enforced yet. Since ports are using up address space in
  the kernel, those seems to be proper limits.
* This also fixes a strange, and rare lockup where the mouse cursor would still
  move, but everything else would basically hang, but look perfectly normal from
  KDL on the first look. As recently happened on Brecht's laptop, and debugged
  by mmlr and me: the cbuf space got used up when lots of windows wanted to
  redraw after a workspace switch. The app_server wouldn't answer anymore to
  client requests, but thought it would have done so, as LinkSender::Flush()
  doesn't care if it got a B_NO_MEMORY (the ports will now block until memory
  is available if possible, so that should not be a problem anymore).
* Improved "port" KDL command, it now also prints the messages in the port.

e8885f2097 Basically rewrote the ports subsystem to use:
* its own heap allocator instead of cbuf - this makes cbuf superfluous, and I
  therefore removed it from the kernel. The heap is swappable, so lifts the
  kernel's resource usage a bit. In the future, the heap should grow as well;
  right now it should be at least as good as before.
* it no longer uses spinlocks, but just mutexes now for better scalability - it
  was not usable with interrupts turned off anyway (due to its semaphore usage).
* it no longer uses semaphores, but condition variables.
* Needed to move the port initialization to a later point, as swappable memory
  wasn't usable that early.
* All ports test are still passing, hopefully I didn't mess anything up :-)

44778a8a28 Introduce vm_map_physical_memory_vecs. It is like vm_map_physical_memory but
takes a list of iovecs describing the physical pages to be mapped. With it one
can map a set of physically disjoint pages into one linear virtual range. This
is a private API right now, but we might want to make it public as
map_physical_memory_vecs alongside map_physical_memory.

1af7d11504 * Rework page writing to combine page writes where possible. For now the pages
are required to be physically contiguos, which should be reworked to put them
  into seperate iovecs. Still this manages to combine a great deal of page
  writes into larger bursts already. Reduces the amount of IO requests being
  scheduled (and greatly benefits media where page wise writes are slow when
  they are accessed through a non-IOScheduler path, i.e. USB mass storage until
  that is properly implemented).
* Abstracted per page page writing tasks into a PageWriteWrapper class.
* Abstracted per transfer page writing tasks into PageWriteTransfer class which
  formerly was the PageWriterCallback.
* Use both classes from the PageWriterRun and from
  vm_page_write_modified_page_range to remove code duplication.
* Adjusted synchronous VMAnonymousCache::Write() to cope correctly with larger
  iovecs and more than one iovec. It assumed that there was exactly one page per
  vector previously.
* Introduced MaxPagesPerWrite() and MaxPagesPerAsyncWrite() to VMCache to allow
  a cache to specify restricitions. VMAnonymousCache does restrict the max pages
  to 1 for WriteAsync right now as I didn't feel like reworking that one to cope
  with non single page writes just yet.
* Pulled out PageWriteTransfer methods for better readability.
* Some typo fixes.

a9689e8492 * VFS:
- Fixed vfs_get_vnode_from_fd() return type.
  - Added vfs_open_vnode().
  - Added a "bool traverseLeafLink" parameter to vfs_get_fs_node_from_path().
    It was always resolving symlinks.
* device manager/devfs:
  - devfs: get_node_for_path() no longer resolves leaf symlinks. That still
    doesn't help with file disk devices, as creating partition wouldn't work
    anyway.
  - Pulled the module-related implementation part of BaseDevice into new class
    AbstractModuleDevice and made all methods of BaseDevice virtual. Small
    adjustments to devfs to be happy with the new BaseDevice interface.
  - Added BaseDevice subclass FileDevice, which maps the interface to a file's
    file descriptor. Still got a few TODOs, but should basically work.
  - Use FileDevice for publishing file disk devices in devfs. Now those do
    actually work, though there's some BFS trouble with one of the images I
    tested.

858a20cab8 Patch by Vincent Duvert:
Remove the 4 cores limit at boot, and fix the allocator to handle 8 cores.
There are still performance problems, but this allows booting with 8 cores.
WARNING: since this changes x86 platform kernel args, you really don't want to update haiku_loader and kernel_x86 separately!

ea40a61a84 Some big changes, still not working on my laptop, since hpet interrupts
aren't routed correctly over the 8259, it seems.
- Removed passing the hpet_regs around, since there's a static variable.
- Added lots of debug dprintfs.
- Fixed setting the timer interrupt to edge
- Timer is initialized once.
- Use the timer 0 instead of 2.
- Renamed register definitions to be more readable
- Use 64 bits registers and unions where applicable.
- Other things I don't remember

Also shortened some defines using "TN" instead of "TIMER". It's also
the same scheme used in the specs

mapped pages and a non-read and non-write protection to block a certain address
range from being used by anything.
