BDiskSystem to BPartition and reimplemented them using the userland
add-on backend instead of syscalls. As a side effect this solves the
TODO I recently added in GetNextSupportedType().
* Reimplemented BDiskSystem::GetTypeForContentType() using the userland
add-on backend instead of a syscall.
* Moved GetTypeForContentType() and IsSubSystemFor() from
BPartitionHandle to BDiskSystemAddOn. They were misplaced.

collection of no-op methods, which could as well be implemented in
BPartition itself. This makes the Delegate hierarchy unnecessary:
MutableDelegate becomes Delegate, and we save a few casts as a side
effect.

builds the object hierarchy, the second will (in case of MutableDelegate)
let the disk systems do their initialization. This way the disk systems
already find a fully functional object hierarchy they can work with.
* Child creation also takes a partition name as a parameter, now.
* Implemented BMutablePartition child creation/deletion.
* The BDiskSystemAddOn/BPartitionHandle::Validate*() methods return a
status_t instead of a bool, now.

the accelerant, as well as its EDID info. B_GET_PREFERRED_DISPLAY_MODE and
B_GET_EDID_INFO are both optional. The preferred mode will be taken from the
EDID info if only the latter hook is implemented, or the former returned an
error.
* Currently, the app_server should correctly set the preferred mode on start,
but no accelerant supports that yet, so it's not really tested.

and allow the base mode list to reside in the app_server (under Haiku, at least),
so that all drivers will benefit from an updated list.
Right now, it might already work to a degree, but it's not yet tested.

vm_page_reserve_pages() and vm_page_allocate_page() will now steal pages from
the inactive queue as needed.
* We currently never steal active pages anymore, but this might need to be
revised later (therefore, the page scanner never waits anymore, but uses
mutex_trylock() to lock a cache).
* The page scanner and writer now both run at normal priority - let's see how
that will work out.
* Introduced an inactive queue.
* Instead of shuffling pages around in the queue (and therefore destroying LRU)
the page stealing mechanism now uses a marker page to be able to release the
page lock without losing its position in the queue.
* The page writer now always grabs the whole release count of the semaphore, so
that there won't be a huge backlog to catch up with.
* vm_page_num_free_pages() now also includes the inactive queue as well as the
reserved pages (they are no longer regarded as free pages).
* Added a insert_page_after() function that inserts a page after another one,
needed by the marker code.
* clear_page() now gets a vm_page instead of a physical address which simplified
some code.
* Removed superfluous initialization of the queues (if those aren't zeroed on
start, we would have serious problems, anyway).
* Removed old and unimplemented dump_free_page_table() ("free_pages") KDL
command.

it intended to. That resulted in more writable pages where you wouldn't want
them (ie. allowing the area to change pages in lower caches).
* We were losing modified pages: vm_unmap_pages() sometimes has to preserve
the modified flag (eg. when called from page fault).
* Both of these were responsible that stealing active pages would crash
applications - even if less likely, this could also have happened when
stealing inactive pages. Therefore, I've activated stealing active pages
again.
* The page writer now pushes the pages of busy vnodes to the end of the queue,
so that it won't pick them up again too soon (the vnode destruction would
be in the process of writing those pages back, anyway).
* The page thief now triggers the page writer to run once it has to steal
active pages. This might be a bit too aggressive, though.

hence CancelInputMethod()), but it implements part of it. To avoid code
duplication, I added a private _SetRunArray() call, which does most of
the work, except cancelling the input method, and calling Refresh().
Removed some unneeded code from CancelInputMethod(), some small changes
in HandleInputMethodChanged.

busy vnodes.
* dir_create_entry_ref() used get_vnode() incorrectly (and could therefore
potentially prevent a file system from doing proper locking when called
from the kernel).
* The vnode_store now uses this for its acquire_unreferenced_ref()
implementation (and therefore for the page writer).
* read_into_cache() and write_to_cache() were still marked inline.
* The system will now wait 10 secs for a busy vnode before returning an error.
* It will also no longer panic in that case.

additional partition_data* child parameter now.
* _user_get_partitionable_spaces() doesn't need to copy the buffer into
the kernel, since it is no input parameter. It also copies back the
actual partitionable spaces count on error, now -- B_BUFFER_OVERFLOW
is returned when the buffer was too small, but then the count must be
returned too.
* Fixed several instances of syscall implementations that unloaded a disk
system, although they didn't load it in the first place. This screwed
up the load count with undesirable consequences.
* _user_create_child_partition() would set the size to the supplied
offset.
* Fixed broken loop in KPhysicalPartition::CreateShadowPartition().
* KPartition::RemoveChild() notified the listeners about the wrong
event.
* Intel partitioning module:
- The *_get_partitionable_spaces() correctly return B_BUFFER_OVERFLOW
now, if the supplied buffer is too small.
- Implemented a part of pm_shadow_changed(), which creates and updates
the PartitionMap, so that the validate_*() hooks have a chance to
work at all.

interfere with the page thief, we always need to have reserved a page for
this upfront. I introduced a function to the vm_translation_map layer that
estimates how much pages a mapping might need at maximum. All functions that
map a page now call this and reserve the needed pages upfront.
It might not be a nice solution, but it works.
* The page thief could run into a panic when trying to call vm_cache_release_ref()
on a non-existing (NULL) cache.
* Also, it will now ignore wired active pages.
* There is still a race condition between the page writer and the vnode
destruction - writing a page back needs a valid vnode, but that might just
have been deleted.

system initialize() hooks. It's often the only info about the
partition one needs and thus locking the partition just to get it is
no longer necessary.
* intel partitioning system:
- Removed passing around block sizes. We require 512 byte sectors
anyway. In fact using the parent partition's block size was even
wrong.
- Simplified writing the partition map sector.
- Simplified and corrected the partition map initialization.
- We don't fail identifying a partition anymore, if the partition map
contains no partitions. We would never identify a freshly
initialized partition map before.
- Made pm_identify() more intelligent: It determines the priority to
return depending on whether the partition is the device itself and
whether we have recognized child partitions.

The one with the greater identification priority wins. ATM, if a file

partition at all, though.

the unmapped page.
* This is needed by everyone who calls this to make sure modifications to a
page aren't ignored. Namely, the page scanner and the page thief were
affected.
* Cleaned up locking the page's cache a bit in page_thief(); there is now
a helper class that takes care of everything.

* the page writer don't allow to block, while all other writers do. This fixes

vfs_select.h, respectively moved most of it into the new kernel
private header wait_for_objects.h.
* Added new experimental API functions wait_for_objects[_etc](). They
work pretty much like poll(), but also for semaphores, ports, and
threads.
* Removed the "ref" parameter from notify_select_events() and the
select_sync_pool functions as well as from fd_ops::fd_[de]select(). It
is no longer needed. The FS interface select() hook still has it,
though -- the VFS will always pass 0.
* de]select_fd() take a select_info* instead of a select_sync* + ref
pair, now. Added respective functions for semaphores, ports, and
threads.

and thread spinlock was reverse in Wait() and Notify(). The thread lock
is now the outer lock -- this way it is still possible to call Notify()
with the thread lock being held.
git-svn-id: file:///srv/svn/repos/haiku/haiku/trunk@22401 a95241bf-73f2-0310-859d-f6bbb57e9c96
* Reworked the select support:
- The io_context additionally stores a table of lists of select_infos,
which enables it to deselect events of a pending select() when
closing a FD. This prevents a race condition potentially causing a
write to stale memory.
- The opaque selectsync* passed to FSs is now actually a select_info*.
This was necessary, since the FDs deselect() hook (unlike the
select() hook) doesn't take a "ref" argument and deselecting a
single info (e.g. caused by a premature close()) was not possible.
The select() hook's "ref" argument has become superfluous.
- It should now be relatively easy to implement a poll_on_steroids()
that can also wait for objects other than FDs (e.g. semaphores,
ports, threads etc.).
* Set/reset the signal mask in common_select(). This makes pselect()
work as required.
* Reorganized vfs_resize_fd_table().

characters first, and then falls back to take everything. fTrigger is now
uint32 and works with all unicode characters; unlike in BeOS, the
MenuTriggerTest application now works correctly in Haiku.
* fTriggerIndex is now a character position, not a byte position of the label;
this allows BMenuItem::DrawContent() to draw the trigger at the correct
position, even if there are multi-byte UTF-8 characters.
* The above fixed bug #1506; triggers are still not working, though.
* Rewrote Menu.h header.
* Renamed all private methods (that are not called by BWindow) to have the
underscore prefix.
* Removed unused methods.
* Some minor cleanup.

components - now, we divide the initialization of that service into two parts
which allows this (before, most handlers were gone after boot).
* Added debugger command that dumps the low memory handlers.
* The slab allocator now registers its low memory handler with a higher
priority, so that it'll run before the potentially heavier ones.
git-svn-id: file:///srv/svn/repos/haiku/haiku/trunk@22374 a95241bf-73f2-0310-859d-f6bbb57e9c96
* We now have a page writer that takes some pages from the modified queue
and writes it back every few seconds. It can be triggered by the page
scanner to do that more often, though. That mechanism can be greatly
improved once we have our I/O scheduler working.
* Removed vm_page_write_modified_page() again - it was all "eaten up" by
the page writer.
* Reworked vm_page_write_modified_pages() a bit: it now uses
vm_test_map_modification() and vm_clear_map_flags() instead of the
iterating over all areas which wouldn't even work correctly.
The code is much simpler now, too.
* You usually put something to the tail of a queue, and remove the contents
from the head, not vice versa - changed queue implementation to reflect this.
* Additionally, there is now a enqueue_page_to_head() if you actually want the
opposite.
* vm_page_requeue() allows you to move a page in a queue to the head or tail.
* Replaced vm_clear_map_activation() with vm_clear_map_flags() which allows
you to clear other flags than PAGE_ACCESSED.
* The page scanner dumps now some arguments with each run.
* Removed the old disabled pageout_daemon() from NewOS.

* Removed vm_page, vm_area, vm_cache, and vm_address_space typedefs; it's
cleaner this way, and the actual types are only used in C++ files now,
anyway.
* And that caused changes in many files...
* Made commpage.h self-containing.

If a Tab is partially out of the window, clicking on it to make it the

introduced a new vm_page_write_modified_page().
* Resolved a TODO: vm_page_write_modified_pages() did not mark a to be
written page busy but unlocked its cache which could let someone else
steal that page in the mean time.
* Moved the logic when to move a page to the active or inactive queue to
a new function move_page_to_active_or_inactive_queue().
* Moved page_state_to_string() to vm_page(); it's now also used by the
"page" and "page_queue" KDL commands.
* Made the output of the "page_queue list" command more useful.

are locked, there is now a vm_page_reserve_pages() call to ensure upfront that
there is a page for me when I need it, and may have locked some caches.
* The vm_soft_fault() routine now makes use of that feature.
* vm_page_allocate_page() now resets the vm_page::usage_count, so that the file
cache does not need to do this in read_chunk_into_cache() and
write_chunk_to_cache().
* In cache_io() however, it need to update the usage_count - and it does that
now. Since non-mapped caches don't have mappings, the page scanner will punish
the cache pages stronger than other pages which is accidently just what we
want.
git-svn-id: file:///srv/svn/repos/haiku/haiku/trunk@22319 a95241bf-73f2-0310-859d-f6bbb57e9c96
* Removed the vm_cache/vm_store ref_count duality that besides being a bit ugly
also created the page dameon cache retrieval problem: now, only areas (and
cache consumers) retrieve a reference to the store (and therefore, the vnode).
The page daemon doesn't need to care about this at all anymore, and the pseudo
references of the vm_cache could be removed again.
* Rearranged deletion of vnodes such that its ID can be reused directly after
fs_remove_vnode() has been called.
* vm_page_allocate_page() no longer panics when it runs out of pages, but just
waits for new pages to become available using the new sFreeCondition condition
variable - to make sure this happens in an acceptable time frame, it'll
trigger a run of the low memory handlers.
* Implemented a page_thief() that steals inactive pages from caches and puts
them into the free queue. It runs as a low memory handler.
* The file cache now sets the usage count on the pages it inserts into the
cache (needs some rework though, cache_io() doesn't do it yet).
* Instead of panicking, the kernel will currently dead lock in low memory
situations, since BFS does a bit too much in bfs_release_vnode().
* Some minor cleanup.
git-svn-id: file:///srv/svn/repos/haiku/haiku/trunk@22315 a95241bf-73f2-0310-859d-f6bbb57e9c96

git-svn-id: file:///srv/svn/repos/haiku/haiku/trunk@22308 a95241bf-73f2-0310-859d-f6bbb57e9c96
* Fixed vm_page_allocate_page_run(): it did not take the pageState into account,
and would therefore return uninitialized memory (ie. B_CONTIGUOUS areas would
contain garbage).
Now, it stores if a page is cleared in a new vm_page::is_cleared field.
* Some cleanup.
git-svn-id: file:///srv/svn/repos/haiku/haiku/trunk@22306 a95241bf-73f2-0310-859d-f6bbb57e9c96
not take the VCO limits into account; both could (and would during testing) create invalid
frequencies.
* Also reverted the order in which the PLL divisors are traversed to match the order of what
is used in the X driver to create comparable output (our error computation is based on float,
though, and should therefore create more accurate values).
* The i965 introduced a special register for the surface; the former display base register
is now only used for the view offset. Instead of setting the base manually here and there,
there is now a set_frame_buffer_base() function.
* The DPMS code will now also turn off/on the PLL clock generator.
* The code needs some more cleanup, and while the driver now produces the correct timing on
my i965 system, I'm now greeted by a black screen after startup.

both to talk to the I2C bus.

a reference to a by them not yet referenced cache was not correct.
They only incremented the reference count, but a vnode cache reference
includes also a vnode reference. In case of the page daemon this would
cause vnode references to be lost (causing bug #1465).
* The page daemon used an unsafe method to access a yet unreferenced
page cache. There was nothing that prevented the cache from being
deleted while the page daemon tried to get a reference. The
vm_page::cache field is now protected by the page cache table
spinlock, too, which the new function

* Added an "orphaned" flag to the process_group structure and code to
maintain it.
* Handle the death of a controlling process correctly: The
foreground process group gets a SIGHUP and all newly-orphaned process
groups containing at least one stopped processes are sent
SIGHUP+SIGCONT.
* The tty handles the O_NOCTTY flag correctly, now.
* The tty handles reads/writes from processes from other sessions

* The vm_translation_map is now correctly held in all of the vm_ mapping
functions.
* Removed the old vm_daemons.c file - there is now a new vm_daemons.cpp
which contains the beginnings of our new page daemon.
So far, it's pretty static and not much tested. What it currently does
is to rescan all pages in the system with a two-handed clock algorithm
and push pages into the modified and inactive lists.
* These inactive pages aren't really stolen yet, even though their mappings
are removed (ie. their next access will cause a page fault). This should
slow down Haiku a bit more, great, huh? :-)
* The page daemon currently only runs on low memory situations, though.

DEBUG_CACHE_LIST) that prints an unspectacular list of pointers to all
existing caches. Feel free to extend.
* Enhanced MultiAddressSpaceLocker:
- It supports choosing between read and write lock per address space,
now.
- Added AddAreaCacheAndLock(), which adds the address spaces of all
areas that are attached to a given area's cache, locks them, and
locks the cache. It makes sure that the area list didn't change in
the meantime and optionally also that all areas have their
no_cache_change flags cleared.
* Changed vm_copy_on_write_area() to take a cache instead of an area,
requiring it to be locked and all address spaces of affected areas to
be read-locked, plus all areas' no_cache_change flags to be cleared.
Callers simply use MultiAddressSpaceLocker:: AddAreaCacheAndLock() to
do that. This resolves an open TODO, that the areas' base, size, and
protection fields were accessed without their address spaces being
locked.
* vm_copy_area() does now always insert a cache for the target area. Not
doing that would cause source and target area being attached to
the same cache in case the target protection was read-only. This
would make them behave like cloned areas, which would lead to trouble
when one of the areas would be changed to writable later.
* Fixed the !writable -> writable case in vm_set_area_protection(). It
would simply change the protection of all mapped pages for this area,
including ones from lower caches, thus causing later writes to the
area to be seen by areas that shouldn't see them. This fixes a problem
with software breakpoints in gdb. They could cause other programs to
be dropped into the debugger.
* resize_area() uses MultiAddressSpaceLocker::AddAreaCacheAndLock() now,
too, and could be compacted quite a bit.

Condition variables would never be interrupted.
* ConditionVariableEntry::Add() did not correctly insert the entry into
the per-thread list of entries (the next link of the previous entry
was not adjusted), which could leave the entry unnotified when the
previous entry was notified, thus leaving it in the respective
condition variable's list after the end of its life time. This should
fix a crashing bug I rarely encountered.
* Added debug checks in the PrivateConditionVariableEntry
constructor/destructor that should have helped me to find
forementioned bug hours earlier, had I been bright enough to realize
that I didn't include <debug.h> and those KDEBUG guarded checks were
never executed. :-/

is used instead of death_entry for team::dead_children.
* Added team::{stopped,continued}_children, which, analoguously to
dead_children, are used to track the state of stopped/continued
children.
* A team does have a job_control_entry, which is allocated at team
creation time. It will be inserted into the parent's
{stopped,continued}_children lists as the team's main thread is
stopped/continued and removed when waitpid() retrieves the child
state. When the team dies the entry is detached from the team and goes
into the parent's dead_children list.
* Removed the wait_for_any field from team_dead_children. It was solely
used to avoid deletion of the contained entries in certain situations.
wait_for_child() (the waitpid() backend) always deletes an entry now,
regardless of whether other threads are waiting; that's in
accordance with the waidpid() specification. wait_for_thread() removes
the entry only, if the caller is the parent of the respective team.
* Introduced team_set_job_control_state() which performes the job
control entry transitions between the respective lists and wakes up
threads waiting in wait_for_child(). It is invoked on team death and
when the team's main thread receives job control signals.
* Reorganized wait_for_child(). It handles WCONTINUED and WUNTRACED now,
too. Removed a block that interpreted the supplied ID as thread ID.
* Added missing parts in waitpid().
Job control starts to work, though it seems to have some glitches.

* It is now possible for a thread to wait for more than one condition

* get_signal_stack() checked the wrong sig_action field (index is signal-1), also,
it had an off-by-one error in the stack range check.
* factored out a restart_syscall() function to avoid code duplication
* arch_setup_signal_frame() relied on the fact that vregs and the signal stack code
is a multiple of 4 bytes in size.
* Fixed sigaction(): it did return the error code directly instead of setting errno.
* signal() actually had a work-around for the broken sigaction()...
* Replaced the sig_func_t typedef with a sighandler_t typedef - this is non-standard
anyway, but now we're at least compatible with the GNU world instead of introducing
our own solution (BSD seems to use sig_t here, BTW).
* Removed now unused sigval structure from the header; it should be added again as
soon as we start supporting it.
* SA_RESETHAND and SA_ONESHOT are the same thing; the former did not work before.
* Made the non-standard SA_* flags refer to the standard ones instead of the other
way around.
* Added a test application for various signal features - works fine under Haiku,
tested also under Linux and BeOS (the latter fails as it does not support SA_RESTART).
More tests should be added, though.
* Cleanup.

space locked (read or write, depending on what you do) when dealing with
areas.
* Added helper classes for locking the address space: AddressSpace{Read|Write}Locker,
and MultiAddressSpaceLocker which can lock several spaces at once and makes
sure no dead locks can happen.
* resize_area() is now using the MultiAddressSpaceLocker instead of no locking
at all; ie. it should now be safely to use.

It handles the locking for getting the font cache entries.
It works by giving it a template class GlyphConsumer which does the

AsString adds the offset of the glyph in the word to the bounding box

it was only there to account for some peculiarities of the node monitor which
we now solved differently.
* NotificationListener no longer includes a doubly linked list link for convenience;
it might want to listen to more than just one service.
* NotificationService cannot have an abstract destructor.
* Changed the _user_stop_watching() syscall to mirror the Be API; ie. it's no
longer possible to just remove some flags separately, just to stop listening
completely.
* Adapted the node monitor implementation to live in the NodeMonitorService class
that uses the new notification framework.
* Removed the public kernel node monitor API - it wasn't useful that way since you
couldn't do a lot with the KMessage in the kernel without using a private API.
Now you will have to use the (private) notification manager to use the node monitor
from inside the kernel. At a later point, we might introduce a public API for that,
too.

* While handling a soft fault: When we temporarily unlock a cache, it
can theoretically become busy. One such occurrence is now handled
properly, two more panic() ATM, though should be fixed.
* When merging caches, we do now always replace a dummy page in the
upper cache, not only when the concurrent page fault is a read fault.
This prevents a page from the lower (to be discarded) cache from still
remaining mapped (causing a panic).
* When merging caches and replacing a dummy page, we were trying to
remove the dummy page from the wrong cache (causing a panic).

didn't manage to get it down by fully building Pe, downloading, unzipping,
and playing with various stuff. Someone should finally fix all those app
server drawing bugs, though (hint, hint! ;-)).

I "ported" the region implementation from XOrg to work on BRegion data.
This resulted in pretty much the same code structure as before, with
RegionSupport.cpp containing the messy details. Only now it _is_ really messy
from a code beauty point of view. I didn't exactly feel like cleaning it
up right now... but I guess I will have to.
So what does this mean - our BRegion implementation was very slow (no offense!),
and on top of that it scaled very badly with more and more rects. The new
implementation seems to be on par with the very fast R5 implementation and
the data looks exactly the same too. BRegion is very performance critical
for the app_server, and I cannot wait to try this on my slow computer...
Some changes are noteworthy: The right and bottom coordinates of
BRegion internal data are now exclusive! I inherited that from the
XOrg implementation and didn't feel like changing the code, seeing it
is probably tested quite well. The conversion is handled transparently.
Secondly, constructing a BRegion with just one rect is not invoking
malloc anymore for the member data, this makes it much more efficient
to use temporary BRegions with just one rect, both externally and internally
in the BRegion implementation.

stack hungry and would previously hit the stack limit and thus cause a
double fault. Hopefully we'll be able to reduce the stack foot print at
some time.
PXE boot does now fully work.

* Images preloaded by the boot loader had to be modules to be of any use
to the kernel. Extended the mechanism so that any images not accepted
by the module code would later be tried to be added as drivers by the
devfs. This is a little hacky ATM, since the devfs manages the drivers
using a hash map keyed by the drivers inode ID, which those drivers
obviously don't have.
* The devfs emulates read_pages() using read(), if the device driver
doesn't implement the former (all old-style drivers), thus making it
possible to BFS, which uses the file cache which in turn requires
read_pages(), on the device. write_pages() emulation is still missing.
* Replaced the kernel_args::boot_disk structure by a KMessage, which can
more flexibly be extended and deals more gracefully with
arbitrarily-size data. The disk_identifier structure still exists,
though. It is added as message field in cases where needed (non net
boot). Moved the boot_drive_number field of the bios_ia32 platform
specific args into the message.
* Made the stage 1 PXE boot loader superfluous. Moved the relevant
initialization code into the stage 2 loader, which can now be loaded
directly via PXE.
* The PXE boot loader does now download a boot tgz archive via TFTP. It
does no longer use the RemoteDisk protocol (it could actually be
removed from the boot loader). It also parses the DHCP options in the
DHCPACK packet provided by PXE and extracts the root path to be
mounted by the kernel.
* Reorganized the boot volume search in the kernel (vfs_boot.cpp) and
added support for network boot. In this case the net stack is
initialized and the network interface the boot loader used is brought
up and configured. Since NBD and RemoteDisk are our only options for
net boot (and those aren't really configurable dynamically) ATM, the
the boot device is found automatically by the disk device manager.
Booting via PXE does work to some degree now. The most grievous problem
is that loading certain drivers or kernel modules (or related activity)
causes a reboot (likely a triple fault, though one wonders where our
double fault handler is on vacation). Namely the keyboard and mouse input
server add-ons need to be deactivated as well as the media server.
A smaller problem is the net server, which apparently tries to
(re-)configure the network interface we're using to boot, which
obviously doesn't work out that well. So, if all this stuff is disabled
Haiku does fully boot, when using the RemoteDisk protocol (not being
able to use keyboard or mouse doesn't make this a particular fascinating
experience, though ;-)). I had no luck with NBD -- it seemed to have
protocol problems with the servers I tried.

with the same size as the class is defined.
* The SetTo() methods do now accept an unspecified (negative) bufferSize
in case of being told to initialize from the given buffer.
* Added handy Get*() methods returning a field element value or a
supplied default value, if the field element doesn't exist.
* Added also handy Set*() methods setting the value of first element of
a field, i.e. adding it, if it didn't exist before, otherwise
replacing the old value. Only for fixed size types.
* Moved _FindType() inline template method into the header.
* Made the source file fit for use in the boot loader. If the macro
KMESSAGE_CONTAINER_ONLY is defined, the message sending/receiving part
is omitted.

* Added kPartitionTypeEFI to the constants.
