all MTRRs at once.
* Added a respective x86_set_mtrrs() kernel function.
* x86 CPU module:
- Implemented the new hook.
- Prefixed most debug output with the CPU index. Otherwise it gets quite
confusing with multiple CPUs.
- generic_init_mtrrs(): No longer clear all MTRRs, if they are already
enabled. This lets us benefit from the BIOS's setup until we install our
own -- otherwise with caching disabled things are *really* slow.
* arch_vm.cpp: Completely rewrote the MTRR handling as the old one was not
only slow (O(2^n)), but also broken (resulting in incorrect setups (e.g.
with cachable ranges larger than requested)), and not working by design for
certain cases (subtractive setups intersecting ranges added later).
Now we maintain an array with the successfully set ranges. When a new range
is added, we recompute the complete MTRR setup as we need to. The new
algorithm analyzing the ranges has linear complexity and also handles range
base addresses with an alignment not matching the range size (e.g. a range
at address 0x1000 with size 0x2000) and joining of adjacent/overlapping
ranges of the same type.
This fixes the slow graphics on my 4 GB machine (though unfortunately the
8 MTRRs aren't enough to fully cover the complete frame buffer (about 35
pixel lines remain uncachable), but that can't be helped without rounding up
the frame buffer size, for which we don't have enough information). It might
also fix#1823.

This is something must must not do in an idle thread or we get the scheduler
into trouble.

IS_USER_ADDRESS() check.

parameter and request->IsWrite(). The parameter means whether we want to
write to the request's I/O buffer (therefore renamed it to writeToRequest),
while request->IsWrite() indicates whether the request is a write request.
One can only write to a read request's buffer and vice versa.
IOBuffer::LockMemory() also wants to know whether the request is a write
request, not whether we want to write to the memory.

* This fixes the leaking the vm_translation_map_arch_info objects, and thus
bug #4957.

"etc" are put there now, as well.

as the BeOS scheduler. This makes MediaPlayer playback much better, as high
priority threads could lose their quantum to a worker thread twice in a row
with 4% probability before.
* I did not yet change the simple scheduler as well yet; maybe this isn't the
final one either.

Mikhail Panasyuk: since worker threads often end up with B_NORMAL_PRIORITY,
it might be a good idea to give system threads a higher priority.
* Minor cleanup (mostly automatic whitespace).

* When DEBUG_SPINLOCK_LATENCIES is 1, the system will panic if any spinlock is
held longer than DEBUG_LATENCY micro seconds (currently 200). If your system
doesn't boot anymore, a new safemode setting can disable the panic.
* Besides some problems during boot when the MTRRs are set up, 200 usecs work
fine here if all debug output is turned off (the output stuff is definitely
problematic, though I don't have a good idea on how to improve upon it a lot).
* Renamed the formerly BeOS compatible safemode settings to look better; there
is no need to be compatible there.

debug_output().
* Added a second buffer to be used when interrupts are turned off, otherwise
dprintf_args() will now use a mutex guarded buffer to fill with vfprintf() -
the actual sending to the outputs still needs the spinlock, so things only
slightly improved.
* Moved private functions into the private section of the source file.

should improve the kernel latencies, as things like
vm_page_allocate_page_run() is very expensive.

of that team, too.

* Accidently, this should also fix bug #4839.
* Optimized _get_next_sem_info() a whole lot by iterating over the team's
semaphore list.

to the owning team.
* Instead, the team now maintains a list containing the ports it owns.

* This makes sem_delete_owned_sems() a lot more efficient; before it would need
to scan the entire semaphore table.
* This speeds up the test build of the kernel by another 2 seconds (with
KDEBUG=2) on my laptop.

iterated over all known thread *IDs* with interrupts disabled.
Now it iterates over the team's thread list (going from back to front, since
new threads are added at the front of the singly linked queue).
* Alexandre restarted Tracker quite a lot, and let the shell script run to
reproduce a certain bug - and then wondered why ProcessController would
take several seconds to open its windows until it passed through more than
8 million IDs... :-)
git-svn-id: file:///srv/svn/repos/haiku/haiku/trunk@33737 a95241bf-73f2-0310-859d-f6bbb57e9c96
(hopefully) correct place.
* It seems to be even harder to understand basic locking primitives: when you
think about it, it shouldn't surprise you that conditional variables never
return B_WOULD_BLOCK. This fixes gdb again.
* Added tracing support to the ports subsystem.
* get_port_message() will now resize the port heap if needed (but will also
take timeouts into account while doing so, more or less). The initial port
space is 4MB (as before), the growth rate is the same, and the system wide
limit is arbitrarily set to 64 MB (all swappable). A team limit has been set
to 8 MB, but is not enforced yet. Since ports are using up address space in
the kernel, those seems to be proper limits.
* This also fixes a strange, and rare lockup where the mouse cursor would still
move, but everything else would basically hang, but look perfectly normal from
KDL on the first look. As recently happened on Brecht's laptop, and debugged
by mmlr and me: the cbuf space got used up when lots of windows wanted to
redraw after a workspace switch. The app_server wouldn't answer anymore to
client requests, but thought it would have done so, as LinkSender::Flush()
doesn't care if it got a B_NO_MEMORY (the ports will now block until memory
is available if possible, so that should not be a problem anymore).
* Improved "port" KDL command, it now also prints the messages in the port.

was used this way in the debugger. Doing this later should be harmless,
AFAICT, but Ingo will probably know better.
* Beware, though, the debugger currently does not work anymore.

* its own heap allocator instead of cbuf - this makes cbuf superfluous, and I
therefore removed it from the kernel. The heap is swappable, so lifts the
kernel's resource usage a bit. In the future, the heap should grow as well;
right now it should be at least as good as before.
* it no longer uses spinlocks, but just mutexes now for better scalability - it
was not usable with interrupts turned off anyway (due to its semaphore usage).
* it no longer uses semaphores, but condition variables.
* Needed to move the port initialization to a later point, as swappable memory
wasn't usable that early.
* All ports test are still passing, hopefully I didn't mess anything up :-)

the bin sizes ensure that when hitting this case it always allocates multiple
pages. This makes it more flexible for other use cases though.
git-svn-id: file:///srv/svn/repos/haiku/haiku/trunk@33726 a95241bf-73f2-0310-859d-f6bbb57e9c96
* Fixed some minor issues of heap_create_allocator() when it should use the
kernel heap to allocate its heap structure.
* Fixed an off by one error in the max bin check.
* Changed the KDL "heap" command to allow the "stats" for any heap as well.

fit into the existing area. In that case further reallocs could then assume the
wrong previous size and then not copy enough from the original buffer, leading
to lost bytes at the end of the new buffer.
