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

and a timeout.
* _user_wait_for_thread() was not interruptible before, ie. Control-C wouldn't
work.

time of the idle thread as a measure, we now compute the CPU activity on
each thread switch - the time the CPU worked is the total of user and kernel
time a thread spent during its quantum.
Unlike before, this mechanism works correctly on SMP machines. I hope this
works as expected :)

The test application lets run a thread at the highest priority that calls
yield all the time - the system stays responsible when it runs, so it seems
to work fine :)
Changed the malloc implementation to use _kern_thread_yield() instead of
snoozing.
We should think about making this call public, too.

Extracted scheduler_init() from start_scheduler() (which is now called scheduler_start()).
Moved scheduler related function prototypes from thread.h to the new scheduler.h.
Cleanup.

time of the idle thread. IOW Pulse now works :-)
Renamed the idle thread/stack to start with 1 instead of 0 (first idle thread will
be called "idle thread 1").
Minor cleanup.

threadID parameter to spawn_kernel_thread_etc(). It's now possible to
set the ID of a new thread. Used in team.c to make team ID and the ID of
the main thread equal.
Fascinatingly the two added functions prompt my compiler to issue
`missing prototype' warnings, although those are obviously there. It would
be nice if someone could solve that riddle.

and thread_at_kernel_exit() are always called for userland threads at the appropriate
situation (note, I've renamed those from *_atkernel_*).
The timing should be more accurate this way, and the thread::last_time_type field
is no longer needed: all interrupts are now added to the kernel time (where the
time is actually spent).

a new thread_entry_func typedef in the kernel only. Unlike thread_func, it accepts
two arguments - that functionality is not exported to the user, though.

Renamed the thread/team syscalls to the new naming scheme.
Some other minor cleanups.
git-svn-id: file:///srv/svn/repos/haiku/trunk/current@6867 a95241bf-73f2-0310-859d-f6bbb57e9c96
Added new syscall for set_thread_priority().
Replaced the userland syscall snooze_until() with snooze_etc() (the latter
has to be exported to userland and realize snooze() and snooze_until()).
Cleaned the sources - scheduler functions now have the scheduler_ prefix.
Moved signal related stuff into ksignal.h (out of thread.h).
Replaced public kernel API with direct exports (i.e. resume_thread() instead
of thread_resume_thread()).
Removed the thread_create_XXX_thread*() calls, and replaced them with a
BeOS compatible set.
Made some fields of struct thread a bit prettier.
git-svn-id: file:///srv/svn/repos/haiku/trunk/current@2569 a95241bf-73f2-0310-859d-f6bbb57e9c96
Changed lock.h to like those changes.
Moved the create_sem_etc() from the public OS.h to the private kernel only
sem.h, cleaned it up a bit.
gcc doesn't seem to like the "extern inlines" with -O0 -g, so I replaced
an inline function in thread.h with "static inline" (which it does always
like).
