- moved board/ folder around again, it probably belongs only to kernel stuff,
- added board_config.h templates for gumstix boards.

56c6c0fefb - introduced an "argumetns" field in stage2_args to hold command line args from chaining loader,
- added some multiboot support code:
	- dump some of the passed info,
	- parse command line (skip the 'kernel' name and pass the rest to stage2_args.arguments),
- added an add_stage2_driver_settings() function which takes stage2_args.arguments and translates it into safe mode driver settings, a bit dumb for now.
This allows using qemu -kernel haiku_loader -append 'debug_screen true' and get debug output without having to enter the menu (once multiboot info is used to determine the boot device too).
The idea is to allow passing driver settings and using them to pass extra stuff (like 'force_keymap fr' and other stuff for demo), and to help automate tests ('run_test /bin/sometest').
This should answer Axel's question :)

255c9104e5 * Rework the heap locking strategy. Use a read-write lock for the area lock to
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.

ea2abd110b * Renamed the ROUNDOWN macro to ROUNDDOWN. Also changed the implementation of
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.

4b8d0e6856 Some ppc fixes for #4115, patch by kallisti5 (without the #ifdef _BOOT_MODE):
- stubbed out arch_cpu_init_percpu(),
- make atomic ops declarations extern "C",
- move calls to [i]sync inside the asm code that needs it.

671a2442d9 More work towards making our double fault handler less triple fault prone:
* 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.

cc77aba101 * Allocate a separate double fault stack for each CPU.
* 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...

8ae594ffd4 * Introduced dedicated syscalls for the deprecated BeOS fs_attr API. Before,
each attribute access needed 3 syscalls, now only one as it should.
* 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.

5147963dcd headers/private/kernel/util/OpenHashTable.h, Hugo's version, is a bit nicer than
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.

functions.

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

0b11ecb18c * Always include the public arch_debugger.h headers. The structures defined
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().

c755ecfe96 * Added an emergency key mechanism to the kernel, inspired by Jan Klötzke's
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.

7f96148cac Patch by Bryce Groff with changes by myself:
* 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).

a365e1cfbb Patch by Bryce Groff, some changes by myself:
* 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? :-)

  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.

be done with interrupts disabled.

568ade58d0 User debugger support:
* 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.

477a4ca70e * vfs_boot.cpp now also exports gReadOnlyBootDevice which is true when the
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.

360d4974b9 Replaced the temporary storage used in the kernel debug command parser. We now
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.

eb0262fc4c * Reworked vm_soft_fault() and friends:
- 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.

7515c32c1f Not sure, if this was only a gcc 4.3.3 bug or if I misunderstand something, but
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.

2d8073a9dc * Added a TODO about a problematic use of vm_page_allocate_page() in combination
with vm_cache_acquire_locked_page_cache().
* Added new function vm_page_num_unused_pages() which returns the pages that are
  actually completely free and unused.

eb2bd0e8e3 axeld:
* 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.

227fe7d34a * Scheduler/wait object listener:
- 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.

8b3b05cbf9 Synchronize the TSCs of all CPUs early in the boot process, so system_time()
will return consistent values. This helps with debug measurements for the time
being. Obviously we'll have to think of something different when we support
speed-stepping on models with frequency-dependent TSCs.
