10f0fc8f20 * Implemented sigwait().
* Not sure if it works as intended, as the specs are a bit vague.

6328832fba * Changed get_boot_item() API: it now also can retrieve the size of the boot
item entry.
* The bios_ia32 video platform code now stores the available VESA modes in
  the new vesa_modes kernel_args field.
* When configuring a VESA mode via settings file, it's no longer needed to
  specify the exact mode - the closest available mode is now used. This should
  help with bug #1962.
* frame_buffer_console_init() now also creates a boot_item for the VESA modes
  in the kernel_args.
* The VESA accelerant now filters the mode list to only contain modes that
  are actually supported.
* Moved non-shared vesa driver data into its own file vesa_private.h.

360be1fc45 * Implemented support for chroot:
- Added a "root" vnode to the io_context. It is used for resolving
    paths and converting nodes to paths instead of sRoot. Some more
    passing around of io_context structures was necessary.
  - Introduced a new lock sIOContextRootLock to protect
    io_context::root. The current uses of io_context::io_mutex
    (put_vnode(), remove_vnode() while holding it) looked too suspicious
    to use that mutex in vnode_path_to_vnode().
  - Added _kern_change_root() syscall and chroot() libroot function.
  - Added chroot coreutils program to the image. Funnily it seems to be
    much easier to set up a little jail than under Linux (just copy
    bash and libroot.so into respective subdirs; mount another pipefs
    if you want pipe support).
    With Haiku allowing direct access to directories via inode IDs
    jailing is obviously not very secure at the moment.
  - Added /var/empty to the image. It will be the chroot target for ssh.
* Changed vfs.cpp:get_cwd() so that the io_context::io_mutex is no
  longer held when calling dir_vnode_to_path().

290946ce80 * Implemented some basics for supplementary groups support:
- The kernel stores the group IDs in the team structure. They are
    correctly inherited on fork() and load_image_etc().
  - Implemented getgroups() for real, i.e. it retrieves the groups
    associated with the process.
  - Implemented setgroups(), initgroups() and (the BSDish)
    getgrouplist(). The latter two read the group information from the
    "group database" /etc/group (if existing).
  - Change the BIND port config, since we do have getgrouplist() now.
* The set-uid feature was broken when the path to the executable was
  relative, since we used stat(), which, in the kernel, uses the kernel
  IO context.

071f9c3aa2 Build configurations shouldn't be done in svn controlled files, so I
finally created a solution to avoid that: Header files that contain
configuration settings (and nothing else) go to build/config_headers.
To change settings, create a directory build/user_config_headers (which
is ignored by svn), copy the respective header there and modify it at
your leisure. Currently only tracing_config.h has been moved to the new
location, but more files will follow eventually. It is also recommended
to move optional macro definitions in Jamfile (as for BFS) to a config
header instead; the build system will then automatically rebuild on
changes.

a886f802fc * Added debug_screen_output_enabled() function.
* The boot splash code now checks wether debug screen output is enabled or not
  using the above function.
* The boot splash code no longer maps it's own copy of the frame buffer, instead,
  it will use the boot item feature as the VESA driver does. Also removed the
  lock, as that's not needed at all.
* Renamed splash.cpp to boot_splash.cpp, and boot/splash.h to boot_splash.h
  (it's not part of the boot loader, but the kernel).
* Removed dead code from boot_splash.cpp, added license. Replaced license
  header in boot_splash.h to a style guide conforming one.

aa727f6643 patch by Artur Wyszynski (aljen):
* Added the feature of an animated boot screen (icons lighting up at
  different boot stages).
* Added first version of new boot splash images, generated by the new
  hsbg tool. (Also finally contains the "new" Haiku logo.)

changes by myself:
* Added Artur to the contributors list in About System.
* Fixed some left overs in the patch, kept tracing turned off.

TODO:
* Remove the need for hard coding the icon positions. (Maybe generate
  those from hsbg and put them into images.h? Have user provide icon
  spacing/offsets at the command line for hsbg?)
* Rename the stages to something meaningful.
* Use hsbg as a build system tool and generate images.h during build
  from PNGs provided in the artwork folder.

4a7f236b07 Process groups are now reference-counted. Processes in a group as well
as the death entries of a deceased processes that were in this group
and have not yet been reaped hold references to the group, so that it
won't be deleted until the group is empty and all gone group members
have been reaped. This fixes #1799 at last.

d1189f0b05 Naive implementation of transfer_area(). It follows the suggested sematics
of the resolved ToDo, but could probably be made more efficient. Instead of
transfering the area, the area is cloned into the target teams' address space
and the original is deleted. This generates a new area_id for the transfered
area (as suggested by the ToDo). Updated syscall prototypes according to the
status_t to area_id return type change.

  pointer to it.

  reloading: handle_driver_events() will now also check for drivers to
  add in the sDriversToAdd list.
* Added new devfs_driver_added(), and devfs_driver_removed() functions
  that trigger certain driver actions.
* Implemented notifying devfs on B_ENTRY_CREATED, B_ENTRY_REMOVED, and
  B_ENTRY_MOVED events in probe.cpp. The watched directory inode numbers
  are now stored in a hash for B_ENTRY_MOVED.
* unpublish_driver() did not actually delete the node, it only marked
  it removable since we never get/put the node. We now do, and so the
  node is actually removed as intended.
* Added "devfs_driver" KDL command.

562e2f204a * Removed unused team::pending_signals.
* Added team::flags. Currently only used for setting a flag when a team
  has exec()ed.
* Some improvements of _user_setpgid():
  - It failed incorrectly when the target process was a process group
    leader. According to the standard it shall fail when the process is
    a session leader. Moving a process group leader to another process
    group is fine, even if that leaves the group leaderless.
  - Fixed race conditions. We need to recheck the error conditions when
    we hold the team spinlock. Otherwise the situation could change
    while we allocated the new process group. This was one of the
    reasons for bug #1799 -- after the shell fork()'s both parent and
    child invoke setpgid() for the child.
  - Fixed behavior for pid == pgid. It doesn't necessarily mean that a
    new group has to be created.
  - Fixed update of target process group orphaned state.
  - Squashed TODO: setpgid() on a child is supposed to fail after the
    child has exec()ed.

cf46897b4c Use a dedicated heap to allocate everything that is needed during heap growth.
This eliminates the edge case where the grow thread would not be able to create
a new area because no memory could be allocated for the allocation of the area.
As this case cannot happen anymore, it is also not possible to deadlock in
memalign. Therefore the timeout (which would only have prevented the deadlock
but wouldn't have solved the edge case anyway) has been removed too.
Add options to dump the dedicated grow heap and to only print the current heap
count to the "heap" debugger command.

c72d22a5e8 Converting relative timeouts into absolute ones is fine in principle,
but there's a special handling for 0 us relative timeouts. Syscalls
usually return B_WOULD_BLOCK instead of B_TIMED_OUT in this case, and
callers might explicitely check for it. Hence we don't convert 0 us
timeouts anymore. gdb works again.

4048494ce4 axeld + bonefish:
* Implemented automatic syscall restarts:
  - A syscall can indicate that it has been interrupted and can be
    restarted by setting a respective bit in thread::flags. It can
    store parameters it wants to be preserved for the restart in
    thread::syscall_restart::parameters. Another thread::flags bit
    indicates whether it has been restarted.
  - handle_signals() clears the restart flag, if the handled signal
    has a handler function installed and SA_RESTART is not set. Another
    thread flag (THREAD_FLAGS_DONT_RESTART_SYSCALL) can prevent syscalls
    from being restarted, even if they could be (not used yet, but we
    might want to use it in resume_thread(), so that we stay
    behaviorally compatible with BeOS).
  - The architecture specific syscall handler restarts the syscall, if
    the restart flag is set. Implemented for x86 only.
  - Added some support functions in the private <syscall_restart.h> to
    simplify the syscall restart code in the syscalls.
  - Adjusted all syscalls that can potentially be restarted accordingly.
  - _user_ioctl() sets new thread flag THREAD_FLAGS_IOCTL_SYSCALL while
    calling the underlying FS's/driver's hook, so that syscall restarts
    can also be supported there.
* thread_at_kernel_exit() invokes handle_signals() in a loop now, as
  long as the latter indicates that the thread shall be suspended, so
  that after waking up signals received in the meantime will be handled
  before the thread returns to userland. Adjusted handle_signals()
  accordingly -- when encountering a suspending signal we don't check
  for further signals.
* Fixed sigsuspend(): Suspending the thread and rescheduling doesn't
  result in the correct behavior. Instead we employ a temporary
  condition variable and interruptably wait on it. The POSIX test
  suite test passes, now.
* Made the switch_sem[_etc]() behavior on interruption consistent.
  Depending on when the signal arrived (before the call or when already
  waiting) the first semaphore would or wouldn't be released. Now we
  consistently release it.
* Refactored _user_{read,write}[v]() syscalls. Use a common function for
  either pair. The iovec version doesn't fail anymore, if anything could
  be read/written at all. It also checks whether a complete vector
  could be read/written, so that we won't skip data, if the underlying
  FS/driver couldn't read/write more ATM.
* Some refactoring in the x86 syscall handler: The int 99 and sysenter
  handlers use a common subroutine to avoid code duplication.

4af6cd5f38 Adding two debug features to the new heap implementation:
* Tracing of allocations, reallocations and frees
* Leak checking infrastructure to dump allocations

The leak checking code records the team and thread id when an allocation is
made as well as stores the originally requested size. It also adds the
"allocations" debugger command that can dump all current allocations (usually
a huge list) or filter by either a team or thread id. This way it's easily
possible to find leftover allocations of no more active teams/threads.
Combined with the tracing support one might be able to track down the time and
reason of an allocation and possibly find the corresponding leak if it is one.
Note that kernel heap leak checking has to be enabled manually by setting the
KERNEL_HEAP_LEAK_CHECK define to 1.

5c4d1c5e21 Complete rework of the heap implementation. Freelists are now part of the pages
and pages are now kept in lists as well. This allows to return free pages once
a bin does not need them anymore. Partially filled pages are kept in a sorted
linked list so that allocation will always happen on the fullest page - this
favours having full pages and makes it more likely lightly used pages will get
completely empty so they can be returned. Generally this now goes more in the
direction of a slab allocator.
The allocation logic has been extracted, so a heap is now simply attachable to
a region of memory. This allows for multiple heaps and for dynamic growing. In
case the allocator runs out of free pages, an asynchronous growing thread is
notified to create a new area and attach a new heap to it.
By default the kernel heap is now set to 16MB and grows by 8MB each time all
heaps run full.
This should solve quite a few issues, like certain bins just claiming all pages
so that even if there is free space nothing can be allocated. Also it obviously
does aways with filling the heap page by page until it overgrows.
I think this is now a well performing and scalable allocator we can live with
for quite some time. It is well tested under emulation and real hardware and
performs as expected. If problems come up there is an extensive sanity checker
that can be enabled by PARANOID_VALIDATION that covers most aspects of the
allocator. For normal operation this is not necessary though and is therefore
disabled by default.

9835c090a6 Added a boolean "force" parameter to thread_yield(). When true, the
function has the old behavior. When false, it just calls the scheduler
without any priority adjustment or other stuff.

350b6dbc3a * Removed AbstractTraceEntry::sPrintTeamID and added a flags field to
TraceOutput for output options instead.
* Added "traced" option --difftime. Instead of the absolute system time
  it prints the difference time to the previously printed entry.

a32a4683ff * Implemented flock() semantics to the advisory locking backend. Not tested
(must also compare to BSD; I've looked at their sources, but I might have
  missed something).
* Added sys/file.h and the flock() system call.
* common_fcntl() could forget to put back the file descriptor on some error
  conditions (I guess we should introduce and use a DescriptorGetter class).
* Cleaned up fcntl.h, moved the BSD extensions S_IREAD and S_IWRITE to
  sys/stat.h where they belong, and added the missing S_IEXEC to them.
* Added some more comments.

45b17b80d1 * Temporarily switched to a recursive lock for the depot.
* While this is not a really good idea for a lock with supposedly little
  contention, but it'll fix bug #1731. I haven't tested it yet, but will
  do so in a minute :-)
* I will need to rework the slab anyway so that it's possible to use it
  as a replacement for our heap, and then I'll switch back to a benaphore
  again.

5ccd99565d Benaphores are nice and fast, but they aren't useful for debugging at
all.

90e3bbf0cb Added optional kernel tracing for sending BMessages. Currently only the
destination of the message and it's "what" field are stored. It might be
nice to also get some info about its fields -- maybe as an additional
option.

3cec75dc33 * Debugger modules now have two methods: enter_debugger() and exit_debugger().
* The kernel now opens up to 8 debugger modules (and puts them into an array;
  maybe we'll want to switch to a doubly linked list when there is the need).
* Implemented an example debugger module that prints a stack trace of the
  current thread when the kernel debugger is entered (not included in the
  image).

325b88a661 * Introduced debugger command flag B_KDEBUG_DONT_PARSE_ARGUMENTS.
For commands with this flag set, the parser won't parse the
  arguments provided (it will only check for matching parentheses and
  brackets), but will pass the unparsed argument list string to the
  command instead.
* Set the new flag for the "expr" command, so one doesn't have to quote
  the expression to evaluate anymore (or put it in parentheses).
* Fixed tokenizing of quoted and unquoted strings in expression mode.

4a67038e56 * Added a new function hash_insert_grow() that grows the hash table when needed.
* Removed the public hash_grow() function again (at least for now, it's only
  private).
* Removed the newSize argument from hash_grow(); it will compute the new size
  automatically.
* The block cache is now using hash_insert_grow() instead of hash_insert()
  which should make hash lookups much faster with some 10 thousand blocks,
  also increased the initial table size from 32 to 1024...

b4f58d8758 Renamed syscall_parameters_info structure to extended_syscall_info (and
kSyscallParametersInfos to kExtendedSyscallInfos) and added "name"
field. Now the classes for syscall kernel tracing don't need to lookup
the syscall function symbol anymore, which speeds up printing/filtering
of those entries dramatically.
