After load_image() the child thread is suspended and the parent is
expected to resume it later. However, it is possible that the parent
attempts to resume its child after it has been notified that the image
had been loaded but before the child managed to suspend itself. In such
case the child would suspends itself after that wake up attempt and,
consequently will not be ever resumed.
To mitigate that problem flag Thread::going_to_suspend has been added
which helps synchronizing thread suspension and continuation in a similar
way that "traditional" thread blocking is performed. This means that
the child should behave in a following manner: set its going_to_suspend flag,
notify the parent (i.e. any thread that may want to resume it), acquire
its scheduler_lock and suspend itself if the going_to_suspend flag is set.
The parent should follow pattern: clear going_to_suspend flag of the thread
that is about to be resumed, acquire that thread scheduler_lock and enqueue
it in a run queue if it is suspended.
Thanks Oliver for reporting the bug and identifying what causes it.
Most of the actual UserEvent work is done in DPC so that we don't have
to care about the limitations of the context in which UserEvent::Fire()
is invoked. This requires appropriate management of lifetime of UserEvent
instances to make sure that DoDPC() method is always called on a valid
object.
* BView gets SetFillRule/FillRule methods. The fill rule is part of the
view state.
* The B_NONZERO rule is the default. This is what we implemented before.
* The B_EVEN_ODD rule is the other common possibility for this, and
we need to support it to help WebKit to render properly.
* Add isb just because.
* pdziepak pointed out that ARMv5 and before
had different barrier support.
* pdziepak also mentioned that dsb was too strong
for __sync_synchronize
* On ARMv6 or older, we do a simulated dsb.
* Move __sync_synchronize into thread.c in libroot
and use the new arch_atomic.h dsb/dmb defines.
* Gets arm @bootstrap-raw to end of bootstrap.
* Don't assume verdex as it isn't clear this was
occurring.
* Make an educated guess on HAIKU_BOOT_PLATFORM
based on provided board (but still allow it to
be overridden)
* Error out if user doesn't populate
HAIKU_BOOT_PLATFORM or enters an unknown board
name.
* You need to add "-sHAIKU_BOOT_BOARD=xxx" to
your jam to build for the proper ARM device.
* Rename beagle to beagleboneblk as per the
documentation.
* Use atomic_get_and_set for return value
* Atomics are no longer volatile
* Add missing arch_cpu_pause stub
* Move arch_cpu_idle to arch_cpu header to match
other architectures
* This will be used to implement compressed http streams
* Remove the custom BDataOutput class, and use BDataIO instead, for
easier integration with existing code.
* ... instead of queuing it for the job thread. The advantage is that
the request will be handled immediately and clients won't have to wait
for transactions (which may even require user feedback) to finish. It
complicates Volume a bit, since there are now two threads that may
access it. The shared data have been moved to a State object which is
protected by a lock.
* For commit transaction requests check whether another package request
is already pending/in progress before queuing a job. Fail immediately,
if there is.
Fixes bug #10039.
Everything untested, but compiles, so it must work. The idea is to introduce
BAffineTransform additionally to the existing Origin and Scale properties of
BViews. One may use it in parallel or as an alternative. Painter in app_server
is not yet aware of the additional transformation. It is however already used
to transform drawing coordinates. It probably needs to work differently,
perhaps only in Painter and AGGTextRenderer.
* This is less pretty, but we need access to the connector
to find the HPD gpio pin mask on the card.
* dp_aux communications seem to work again.
* If you have a DisplayPort item attached to your card you
may want to just unplug it at this point. We attempt DP
link training and it fails. This failure will also cause
other monitors to not function as app_server still isn't
multi-head aware (#10486)
For non-US keyboards, the extra 102th/105th key is used to reach \. But,
we also need it to report | when shifted (this is the key left to
"enter").
This affects only USB keyboards. Thanks to gordoncjp for reporting!
When switching AppMetaMimeCreator from BMimeType to Database the
SetIcon[ForType]() calls with a BBitmap* ended up calling the vector
icon version with the icon_size as the data size argument, thus not only
not writing the bitmap icon attributes, but also clobbering the vector
icon attribute.
* BSolver/LibsolvSolver: Add FullSync() method. It uses libsolv's
SOLVER_DISTUPGRADE mode.
* BPackageManager: Add FullSync() using the new solver mode.
* pkgman: Add full-sync command.
The new command is similar to the update command without arguments, just
more aggressive, allowing downgrading or even removal of packages, to
match the state of the repositories. Just like "update" it doesn't work
properly yet.
UserEvent can be fired from scheduler_reschedule() i.e. while holding current
thread scheduler_lock. If the current thread goes sleep and during reschedule
one of its timers sends a signel to it, then scheduler_enqueue_in_run_queue()
attempts to acquire again its scheduler_lock resulting in a deadlock.
There was also a minor issue with both scheduler_reschedule() and
scheduler_enqueue_in_run_queue() acquiring current CPU scheduler mode lock.
Some websites set cookies expiring in the (not so) far future, after year 2038.
So, using time_t to store the cookie expiration date won't do. Use the
BDateTime class instead.
This makes goodsearch.com login work again (#10460).
Adjust Database{Location} to only attempt to create a mimetype when
actually necessary, and fail otherwise if a writable version doesn't yet
exist. Correspondingly, adjust callers such as
DatabaseLocation::DeleteAttribute(). Fixes a problem where a caller asking
to perform a mimeset could fail early due to SetSupportedTypes() attempting
to update the read-only mime database entry supplied by a package, and
consequently most of the mimeset operations would be skipped.
* Fix incorrect cpu vendor name mapping
* Add additional CPU architectures
* Add additional CPU vendors
* Rework PowerPC arch_system_info passing
PVR back for cpu model
* Set max cpu to 1 for PPC until atomic functions are finished
* We have atomic functions inline in the kernel and assembly
code in libroot post-scheduler merge... isn't that a lot of
duplication?
Add boot loader debug menu option "Save syslog from previous session
during boot". If enabled (defaults to true), the previous session's
debug syslog data is copy to a separate buffer and passed to the
kernel, which writes it back to the file /var/log/previous_syslog.
As long as Haiku still boots, this should now be the most convenient way
to retrieve the output from a kernel crash.

Rebased against current sources.
* The BIOS video mode sometimes reports a scaled mode instead of the
physical panel dimensions. Get the data from the VBT table as well, and
use it if the reported resolution is bigger.
* On first boot, force the panel native mode so the user doesn't have to
set it manually.
* Only allow a single head at a time on i855gm, as the card can't drive
both heads at the same time.
* Detect when a new requested mode is the same as the current one, and
skip modesetting in that case. Avoids screen flickering when changing
workspaces.
* Fix some cases of misdetecting which pipes to enable
Previous implementation based on the actual load of each core and share
each thread has in that load turned up to be very problematic when
balancing load on very heavily loaded systems (i.e. more threads
consuming all available CPU time than there is logical CPUs).
The new approach is to estimate how much load would a thread produce
if it had all CPU time only for itself. Summing such load estimations
of each thread assigned to a given core we get a rank that contains
much more information than just simple actual core load.
* Previously PE binaries would trigger the "incorrectly
executable" dialog. Now we get a special message for
B_LEGACY_EXECUTABLE and B_UNKNOWN_EXECUTABLE
* Legacy at the moment is a R3 x86 PE binary. This could
be extended to gcc2 binaries someday far, far, down the
road though
* The check for legacy is based on a PE flag I see
set on every R3 binary (that isn't set on dos ones)
* Unknown is something we know *is* an executable, but
can't do anything with (such as an MSDOS or Windows
application)
* No performance drops as we do the PE scan last
* Tested on x86 and x86_gcc2
