Currently all debugger commands assume 32-bit pointers when formatting their
output. This means that on x86_64 the output is incorrectly formatted. Fixed
this by adding a B_PRINTF_POINTER_WIDTH definition (16 on 64-bit, 8 on
32-bit), and using this to correctly format the output. Not all commands have
been fixed yet, but all VM, slab, VFS, team, thread and image commands should
be correct.
No major changes to the kernel: just compiled in arch_smp.cpp and fixed the
IDT load in arch_cpu_init_percpu to use the correct limit for x86_64 (uses
sizeof(interrupt_descriptor)). In the boot loader, changed smp_boot_other_cpus
to construct a temporary GDT and get the page directory address from CR3, as
what's in kernel_args will be 64-bit stuff and will not work to switch the
CPUs into 32-bit mode in the trampoline code. Refactored 64-bit kernel entry
code to not use the stack after disabling paging, as the secondary CPUs are
given a 32-bit virtual stack address by the SMP trampoline code which will
no longer work.
A proper page fault handler was required for areas that were not locked
into the kernel address space. This enables the boot process to get
up to the point of trying to find the boot volume.
* Thread creation and switching is working fine, however threads do not yet
get interrupted because I've not implemented hardware interrupt handling
yet (I'll do that next).
* I've made some changes to struct iframe: I've removed the e/r prefixes
from the member names for both 32/64, so now they're just named ip, ax,
bp, etc. This makes it easier to write code that works with both 32/64
without having to deal with different iframe member names.
This has been done by adding typedefs in elf_common.h to the correct ELF
structures for the architecture, and changing all Elf32_* uses to those
types. I don't know whether image loading works as I cannot test it yet,
there may be some 64-bit safety issues around. However, symbol lookup for
the kernel is working correctly.
* Uses 64-bit multiplication, special handling for CPUs clocked < 1 GHz
in system_time_nsecs() not required like on x86.
* Tested against a straight conversion of the x86 version, noticably
faster with a large number of system_time() calls.
* typedef for jmp_buf was using int where it should be long.
* setjmp was clearing the buffer pointer rather than the signal mask before
calling sigsetjmp.
* KDL now works without crashing on x86_64.
* Added empty source files for all the 64-bit paging method code, and a
stub implementation of X86PagingMethod64Bit.
* arch_vm_translation_map.cpp has been modified to use X86PagingMethod64Bit
on x86_64.
* Some things are currently ifndef'd out completely for x86_64 because
they aren't implemented, there's a few other ifdef's to handle x86_64
differences but most of the code works unchanged.
* Renamed some i386_* functions to x86_*.
* Added a temporary method for setting the current thread on x86_64
(a global variable, not SMP safe). This will be changed to be done
via the GS segment but I've not implemented that yet.
For now I've just put all the stub functions that are needed to link the
kernel into a file called stubs.cpp. I've not yet moved across the interrupt
handling code or the ELF64 relocation code to the x86 directory. Once those
have been moved I can get rid of the x86_64 headers/source directories.
Not many changes seeing as there's not much x86_64 stuff done yet. Small
differences are handled with ifdefs, large differences (descriptors.h,
struct iframe) have separate headers under arch/x86/32 and arch/x86/64.
The setup procedure is fairly simple: create a 64-bit GDT and 64-bit page
tables that include all kernel mappings from the 32-bit address space, but at
the correct 64-bit address, then go through kernel_args and changes all virtual
addresses to 64-bit addresses, and finally switch to long mode and jump to the
kernel.
Introduce a function to generate the string representation of a bitrate
(kbps, mbps, gbps, etc..)
* Factor out the code from MediaPlayer InfoWindow
* Allow different bases (/1000 or /1024)
* platform_allocate_elf_region() is removed, it is implemented in platform-
independent code now (ELF*Class::AllocateRegion). For ELF64 it is now
assumed that 64-bit addresses are mapped in the loader's 32-bit address space
as (address - KERNEL_BASE_64BIT + KERNEL_BASE).
* mapped_delta field from preloaded_*_image removed, now handled compile-time
using the ELF*Class::Map method.
* Also link the kernel with -z max-page-size=0x1000, removes the need for
2MB alignment on the data segment (not going to map the kernel with large
pages for the time being).
The ELF loader now uses a new platform function, platform_allocate_elf_region,
which returns 2 addresses: the real load address and an address where the
region is mapped in the loader's address space. All of the ELF loading code
has been changed to access the load region through the mapped address rather
than the addresses contained in the ELF image. The ELF64 version of
platform_allocate_elf_region on x86 uses the existing MMU code, which maps
everything at 0x80000000, but returns the correct 64-bit address. The long
mode switch code will just set up the 64-bit address space with everything
remapped at the correct address.
* Extract the scrollbar change based on the mouse wheel delta into a protected
method of BView.
* Call that method from BScrollBar's MessageReceived.
With this change it is now a bit easier to scroll horizontally around the
system by putting the mouse cursor over a horizontal scrollbar and using the
wheel.
Fixes#8631.
* FixedWidthPointer:
- operators ==/!=: Change second operand type from void* to const
Type*. Also add non-const version to resolve ambiguity warning when
comparing with non-const pointer.
- Add Pointer() getter.
- Remove templatized cast operators. They are nice for casting the
pointer directly to another pointer type, but result in ambiguity.
* Make preloaded_image::debug_string_table non-const. Avoids clashes of
the const and non-coast FixedWidthPointer comparison operators. A
cleaner (but more verbose) solution would be to spezialize
FixedWidthPointer for const types.
The actual implementation of the ELF loading methods have been put into
an ELFLoader template class that takes a single template parameter, which
is a structure containing all the necessary ELF typedefs. It's a bit
verbose, but I thought it was a neater solution than using a bunch of
standalone functions with a huge number of template parameters. There is
no change to code outside of elf.cpp, the ELF32/ELF64 differences are
handled internally.
* There is now 2 structures, preloaded_elf32_image and preloaded_elf64_image,
which both inherit from preloaded_image.
* For now I've just hardcoded in use of preloaded_elf32_image, but the
bootloader ELF code will shortly be converted to use templates which use
the appropriate structure. The kernel will be changed later when I add
ELF64 support to it.
* All kernel_args data is now compatible between 32-bit and 64-bit kernels.
