* scheduler_enqueue_in_runqueue() now allows the scheduler to return a hint as to whether a reschedule is desirable or not. This is used in a few other places in order to relegate scheduling decisions entirely to the scheduler rather than the priority hacks previously used. There are probably other places in the kernel that could now make use of that information to more intelligently call reschedule() though.
* Switch over the default scheduler to scheduler_affine().

* Keep track of the currently running threads.
* Make use of that info to decide if a thread that becomes ready should preempt
the running thread.
* If we should preempt we send the target CPU a reschedule message.
* This preemption strategy makes keeping track of idle CPUs by means of a bitmap
superflous and it is therefore removed.
* Right now only other CPUs are preempted though, not the current one.
* Add missing initialization of the quantum tracking code.
* Do not extend the quantum of the idle thread based quantum tracking as we want
it to not run longer than necessary. Once the preemption works completely
adding a quantum timer for the idle thread will become unnecessary though.
* Fix thread stealing code, it did missed the last thread in the run queue.
* When stealing, try to steal the highest priority thread that is currently
waiting by taking priorities into account when finding the target run queue.
* Simplify stealing code a bit as well.
* Minor cleanups.

Start of framebuffer initialization for the Verdex board.
For now it points to the data section as framebuffer for testing and shows an RGB pattern.

* The vesa driver no longer uses VGA programming if the chip does not support
VGA compatibility.
* The VESA driver now tries to set the DAC to 8 bits per color gun.
* In VESA modes, the driver no longer tries to use VGA programming; introduced
the new vesa_set_indexed_colors() that is now used for palette programming.
This should fix wrong colors of 8 bit BWindowScreen users with VESA on real
hardware (emulators usually didn't mind either way).
* Note that the app_server needs to maintain a palette per 8 bit screen, as
right now, the colors are garbled after a workspace switch. Stefano, are you
looking into that already?

- don't clobber the parameter regs in the entry point,
- fix entry point address for netbsd loader emulation,
- added a gUImage global to point to the uimage blob with the tgz,
- added tgz info to platform stage2 args,
- add simple uimage support, just dumps the header and gets the nth blob in the image, (seems we have a bug in the math code, some infos don't print),
- made devices.cpp use them to publish the MemoryDisk,
- add an haiku_loader_nbsd.ub target which puts both the loader and kernel_arm for now (need to replace with the tgz).

- moved board/ folder around again, it probably belongs only to kernel stuff,
- added board_config.h templates for gumstix boards.
git-svn-id: file:///srv/svn/repos/haiku/haiku/trunk@32197 a95241bf-73f2-0310-859d-f6bbb57e9c96
- 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 :)

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.
git-svn-id: file:///srv/svn/repos/haiku/haiku/trunk@32074 a95241bf-73f2-0310-859d-f6bbb57e9c96
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.

- stubbed out arch_cpu_init_percpu(),
- make atomic ops declarations extern "C",
- move calls to [i]sync inside the asm code that needs it.

* 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.

* 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...

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.

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.

* Adjusted syscalls accordingly.

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().

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.

* 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).

* 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? :-)
