The low memory handler now has two passes which should help there; however, it
might also accidently remove recently used vnodes, too. We could mark the clean
ones in some way if that turns out to be a problem.

not work; it would always choose the last thread of the current priority.
IOW a thread was never skipped, and lower priority threads were never called
when a higher priority thread was running - from the POV of the scheduler,
we only has real time threads...
* Improved "run_queue" KDL output.
* Minor cleanup.

vm_page_reserve_pages() and vm_page_allocate_page() will now steal pages from
the inactive queue as needed.
* We currently never steal active pages anymore, but this might need to be
revised later (therefore, the page scanner never waits anymore, but uses
mutex_trylock() to lock a cache).
* The page scanner and writer now both run at normal priority - let's see how
that will work out.
* Introduced an inactive queue.
* Instead of shuffling pages around in the queue (and therefore destroying LRU)
the page stealing mechanism now uses a marker page to be able to release the
page lock without losing its position in the queue.
* The page writer now always grabs the whole release count of the semaphore, so
that there won't be a huge backlog to catch up with.
* vm_page_num_free_pages() now also includes the inactive queue as well as the
reserved pages (they are no longer regarded as free pages).
* Added a insert_page_after() function that inserts a page after another one,
needed by the marker code.
* clear_page() now gets a vm_page instead of a physical address which simplified
some code.
* Removed superfluous initialization of the queues (if those aren't zeroed on
start, we would have serious problems, anyway).
* Removed old and unimplemented dump_free_page_table() ("free_pages") KDL
command.
git-svn-id: file:///srv/svn/repos/haiku/haiku/trunk@22506 a95241bf-73f2-0310-859d-f6bbb57e9c96

* Shuffled functions around a bit.
* Minor cleanup.

vm_remove_all_page_mappings() all computed the wrong virtual address for the
page in question, and would therefore return incorrect data!
Introduced a virtual_page_address() function that is now used by all of them.
So that's why we were still "losing" modified flags - it took me some hours
to find those (sometimes processes died after stealing pages)...
git-svn-id: file:///srv/svn/repos/haiku/haiku/trunk@22498 a95241bf-73f2-0310-859d-f6bbb57e9c96
it intended to. That resulted in more writable pages where you wouldn't want
them (ie. allowing the area to change pages in lower caches).
* We were losing modified pages: vm_unmap_pages() sometimes has to preserve
the modified flag (eg. when called from page fault).
* Both of these were responsible that stealing active pages would crash
applications - even if less likely, this could also have happened when
stealing inactive pages. Therefore, I've activated stealing active pages
again.
* The page writer now pushes the pages of busy vnodes to the end of the queue,
so that it won't pick them up again too soon (the vnode destruction would
be in the process of writing those pages back, anyway).
* The page thief now triggers the page writer to run once it has to steal
active pages. This might be a bit too aggressive, though.

in that case).

* The page_thief() will no longer steal any pages in B_LOW_MEMORY_NOTE state,
only in the more serious cases.
* I've disabled stealing active pages for now again; there seem to be some
problems with it (either with how we do it, or with other stuff).
* vm_page_schedule_write_page() now always releases the page writer semaphore,
resulting in many more written pages - this isn't optimal as long as there is
no I/O scheduler, but before it was much too rare when there are many dirty
pages.
* Customized the thread priorities a bit to make the page scanner/thief/writer
experience a bit nicer with our current scheduler.
* vm_page_reserve_pages() would return too early, it did not test if really
enough pages are free.
* Under certain circumstances, the wakeup from vm_page_reserve_pages() did not
work - we now always notify in vm_page_unreserve_pages() to work around that
problem.
* Checked if the page reservations are done when needed and are always balanced
for the whole kernel.
* vm_page_allocate_page() now panics if it can't deliver a reserved page.
* vm_page_allocate_page_run() can no longer steal reserved pages.
* With all of those changes, I could finally copy a file in emulation, ie. the
Luposian bug should finally be fixed, even though the system might still not
be perfectly stable under low memory. Will do some more testing.
* write_page() no longer prints something on failure.
* Dumping a whole page queue will now also write the cache type of each page.

busy vnodes.
* dir_create_entry_ref() used get_vnode() incorrectly (and could therefore
potentially prevent a file system from doing proper locking when called
from the kernel).
* The vnode_store now uses this for its acquire_unreferenced_ref()
implementation (and therefore for the page writer).
* read_into_cache() and write_to_cache() were still marked inline.
* The system will now wait 10 secs for a busy vnode before returning an error.
* It will also no longer panic in that case.

additional partition_data* child parameter now.
* _user_get_partitionable_spaces() doesn't need to copy the buffer into
the kernel, since it is no input parameter. It also copies back the
actual partitionable spaces count on error, now -- B_BUFFER_OVERFLOW
is returned when the buffer was too small, but then the count must be
returned too.
* Fixed several instances of syscall implementations that unloaded a disk
system, although they didn't load it in the first place. This screwed
up the load count with undesirable consequences.
* _user_create_child_partition() would set the size to the supplied
offset.
* Fixed broken loop in KPhysicalPartition::CreateShadowPartition().
* KPartition::RemoveChild() notified the listeners about the wrong
event.
* Intel partitioning module:
- The *_get_partitionable_spaces() correctly return B_BUFFER_OVERFLOW
now, if the supplied buffer is too small.
- Implemented a part of pm_shadow_changed(), which creates and updates
the PartitionMap, so that the validate_*() hooks have a chance to
work at all.

allocate with the vm_cache locked - this is necessary to be able to steal pages
from itself (large files...).
The system doesn't actually lock up anymore, but it still renders itself unusable;
obviously the page thief does not work correctly, yet. The rest of the experience
is created by our current scheduler (the page thief runs and runs, but it doesn't
free any pages anymore).

twice into the same cache: cache_io() called read_into_cache() (or
write_to_cache()), and that broke down the request into smaller parts.
It then called read_chunk_into_cache() (or write_chunk_to_cache() resp.)
to actually allocate pages and fulfill the request.
However, it needed to unlock the cache for each chunk, and in the mean
time someone else could insert pages into the remaining chunks.
* Now, cache_io() already takes care of chunking the data which makes this
approach safe, and also simplified the code a bit - read_into_cache()/
write_to_cache() are gone now. I've renamed read_chunk_into_cache() to
read_into_cache() (same for the write function).
* Also got rid of that goto in that function while I was on it.
* Disabled cache_prefetch_vnode() for now (it's similar to cache_io(), but
since it's currently not used [since no cache module is installed yet],
I didn't want to go through updating it now, too).

interfere with the page thief, we always need to have reserved a page for
this upfront. I introduced a function to the vm_translation_map layer that
estimates how much pages a mapping might need at maximum. All functions that
map a page now call this and reserve the needed pages upfront.
It might not be a nice solution, but it works.
* The page thief could run into a panic when trying to call vm_cache_release_ref()
on a non-existing (NULL) cache.
* Also, it will now ignore wired active pages.
* There is still a race condition between the page writer and the vnode
destruction - writing a page back needs a valid vnode, but that might just
have been deleted.

conforming. The previous implementation even used the path processed
by check_path(), which would potentially have appended a ".".

system initialize() hooks. It's often the only info about the
partition one needs and thus locking the partition just to get it is
no longer necessary.

- Removed passing around block sizes. We require 512 byte sectors
anyway. In fact using the parent partition's block size was even
wrong.
- Simplified writing the partition map sector.
- Simplified and corrected the partition map initialization.
- We don't fail identifying a partition anymore, if the partition map
contains no partitions. We would never identify a freshly
initialized partition map before.
- Made pm_identify() more intelligent: It determines the priority to
return depending on whether the partition is the device itself and
whether we have recognized child partitions.

vfs_select.h, respectively moved most of it into the new kernel
private header wait_for_objects.h.
* Added new experimental API functions wait_for_objects[_etc](). They
work pretty much like poll(), but also for semaphores, ports, and
threads.
* Removed the "ref" parameter from notify_select_events() and the
select_sync_pool functions as well as from fd_ops::fd_[de]select(). It
is no longer needed. The FS interface select() hook still has it,
though -- the VFS will always pass 0.
* de]select_fd() take a select_info* instead of a select_sync* + ref
pair, now. Added respective functions for semaphores, ports, and
threads.

* In select_fd(): First get the file descriptor, then check whether any
events have to be selected at all. This has the advantage that the
caller can interpret an error return code as invalid FD. Consequently
common_poll() no longer checks FD validity separately -- this was a
race condition.
* common_poll() always selects POLLERR and POLLHUP now, which it has to
do according to the specs.
git-svn-id: file:///srv/svn/repos/haiku/haiku/trunk@22400 a95241bf-73f2-0310-859d-f6bbb57e9c96
* Reworked the select support:
- The io_context additionally stores a table of lists of select_infos,
which enables it to deselect events of a pending select() when
closing a FD. This prevents a race condition potentially causing a
write to stale memory.
- The opaque selectsync* passed to FSs is now actually a select_info*.
This was necessary, since the FDs deselect() hook (unlike the
select() hook) doesn't take a "ref" argument and deselecting a
single info (e.g. caused by a premature close()) was not possible.
The select() hook's "ref" argument has become superfluous.
- It should now be relatively easy to implement a poll_on_steroids()
that can also wait for objects other than FDs (e.g. semaphores,
ports, threads etc.).
* Set/reset the signal mask in common_select(). This makes pselect()
work as required.
* Reorganized vfs_resize_fd_table().

necessary because low memory handlers might need to wait for other services
while we need to make sure the page thief can always steal pages.
* Made the page thief more aggressive when memory is critical: added a third
run where it will also steal a small amount of active pages to keep things
going.
* The page thief did not maintain the cache's reference correctly in all
situations.

* Removed the optimization for piping data between two threads of the
same team. This greatly simplifies the code. It seems to me the case
is very uncommon; it could be added back later, though.
* Basically rewrote reading from and writing to the pipe:
- A blockable writer can now write more than what is currently
available in the ring buffer.
- Writing respects the PIPE_BUF non-interleaving limit, though our
headers don't seem to define PIPE_BUF anywhere.
- Unblock writers, when the last reader is gone and send those that
haven't written anything yet a SIGPIPE. Fixes bug #1476.
* Correctly implemented select() support. We were only notifying
writers. We manage two separate select sync pools per pipe now: one
for the reader end and one for the writer end.
* Reading/writing from the root dir does no longer end in KDL.

which allows this (before, most handlers were gone after boot).
* Added debugger command that dumps the low memory handlers.
* The slab allocator now registers its low memory handler with a higher
priority, so that it'll run before the potentially heavier ones.

vm_page_write_modified_pages() does now at least.

* We now have a page writer that takes some pages from the modified queue
and writes it back every few seconds. It can be triggered by the page
scanner to do that more often, though. That mechanism can be greatly
improved once we have our I/O scheduler working.
* Removed vm_page_write_modified_page() again - it was all "eaten up" by
the page writer.
* Reworked vm_page_write_modified_pages() a bit: it now uses
vm_test_map_modification() and vm_clear_map_flags() instead of the
iterating over all areas which wouldn't even work correctly.
The code is much simpler now, too.
* You usually put something to the tail of a queue, and remove the contents
from the head, not vice versa - changed queue implementation to reflect this.
* Additionally, there is now a enqueue_page_to_head() if you actually want the
opposite.
* vm_page_requeue() allows you to move a page in a queue to the head or tail.
* Replaced vm_clear_map_activation() with vm_clear_map_flags() which allows
you to clear other flags than PAGE_ACCESSED.
* The page scanner dumps now some arguments with each run.
* Removed the old disabled pageout_daemon() from NewOS.

a new function move_page_to_active_or_inactive_queue().

are locked, there is now a vm_page_reserve_pages() call to ensure upfront that
there is a page for me when I need it, and may have locked some caches.
* The vm_soft_fault() routine now makes use of that feature.
* vm_page_allocate_page() now resets the vm_page::usage_count, so that the file
cache does not need to do this in read_chunk_into_cache() and
write_chunk_to_cache().
* In cache_io() however, it need to update the usage_count - and it does that
now. Since non-mapped caches don't have mappings, the page scanner will punish
the cache pages stronger than other pages which is accidently just what we
want.
git-svn-id: file:///srv/svn/repos/haiku/haiku/trunk@22319 a95241bf-73f2-0310-859d-f6bbb57e9c96
* Removed the vm_cache/vm_store ref_count duality that besides being a bit ugly
also created the page dameon cache retrieval problem: now, only areas (and
cache consumers) retrieve a reference to the store (and therefore, the vnode).
The page daemon doesn't need to care about this at all anymore, and the pseudo
references of the vm_cache could be removed again.
* Rearranged deletion of vnodes such that its ID can be reused directly after
fs_remove_vnode() has been called.
* vm_page_allocate_page() no longer panics when it runs out of pages, but just
waits for new pages to become available using the new sFreeCondition condition
variable - to make sure this happens in an acceptable time frame, it'll
trigger a run of the low memory handlers.
* Implemented a page_thief() that steals inactive pages from caches and puts
them into the free queue. It runs as a low memory handler.
* The file cache now sets the usage count on the pages it inserts into the
cache (needs some rework though, cache_io() doesn't do it yet).
* Instead of panicking, the kernel will currently dead lock in low memory
situations, since BFS does a bit too much in bfs_release_vnode().
* Some minor cleanup.

* The page daemon now runs independently from the low memory state.
* It now also increases its frequency and scanned pages, as well as decreases
the interval between runs with increasing memory pressure.

* Fixed vm_page_allocate_page_run(): it did not take the pageState into account,
and would therefore return uninitialized memory (ie. B_CONTIGUOUS areas would
contain garbage).
Now, it stores if a page is cleared in a new vm_page::is_cleared field.
* Some cleanup.

a reference to a by them not yet referenced cache was not correct.
They only incremented the reference count, but a vnode cache reference
includes also a vnode reference. In case of the page daemon this would
cause vnode references to be lost (causing bug #1465).
* The page daemon used an unsafe method to access a yet unreferenced
page cache. There was nothing that prevented the cache from being
deleted while the page daemon tried to get a reference. The
vm_page::cache field is now protected by the page cache table
spinlock, too, which the new function
vm_cache_acquire_page_cache_ref(), used by the page daemon, also
acquires while trying to get the reference.

* The vm_translation_map is now correctly held in all of the vm_ mapping
functions.
* Removed the old vm_daemons.c file - there is now a new vm_daemons.cpp
which contains the beginnings of our new page daemon.
So far, it's pretty static and not much tested. What it currently does
is to rescan all pages in the system with a two-handed clock algorithm
and push pages into the modified and inactive lists.
* These inactive pages aren't really stolen yet, even though their mappings
are removed (ie. their next access will cause a page fault). This should
slow down Haiku a bit more, great, huh? :-)
* The page daemon currently only runs on low memory situations, though.

DEBUG_CACHE_LIST) that prints an unspectacular list of pointers to all
existing caches. Feel free to extend.
* Enhanced MultiAddressSpaceLocker:
- It supports choosing between read and write lock per address space,
now.
- Added AddAreaCacheAndLock(), which adds the address spaces of all
areas that are attached to a given area's cache, locks them, and
locks the cache. It makes sure that the area list didn't change in
the meantime and optionally also that all areas have their
no_cache_change flags cleared.
* Changed vm_copy_on_write_area() to take a cache instead of an area,
requiring it to be locked and all address spaces of affected areas to
be read-locked, plus all areas' no_cache_change flags to be cleared.
Callers simply use MultiAddressSpaceLocker:: AddAreaCacheAndLock() to
do that. This resolves an open TODO, that the areas' base, size, and
protection fields were accessed without their address spaces being
locked.
* vm_copy_area() does now always insert a cache for the target area. Not
doing that would cause source and target area being attached to
the same cache in case the target protection was read-only. This
would make them behave like cloned areas, which would lead to trouble
when one of the areas would be changed to writable later.
* Fixed the !writable -> writable case in vm_set_area_protection(). It
would simply change the protection of all mapped pages for this area,
including ones from lower caches, thus causing later writes to the
area to be seen by areas that shouldn't see them. This fixes a problem
with software breakpoints in gdb. They could cause other programs to
be dropped into the debugger.
* resize_area() uses MultiAddressSpaceLocker::AddAreaCacheAndLock() now,
too, and could be compacted quite a bit.

Condition variables would never be interrupted.
* ConditionVariableEntry::Add() did not correctly insert the entry into
the per-thread list of entries (the next link of the previous entry
was not adjusted), which could leave the entry unnotified when the
previous entry was notified, thus leaving it in the respective
condition variable's list after the end of its life time. This should
fix a crashing bug I rarely encountered.
* Added debug checks in the PrivateConditionVariableEntry
constructor/destructor that should have helped me to find
forementioned bug hours earlier, had I been bright enough to realize
that I didn't include <debug.h> and those KDEBUG guarded checks were
never executed. :-/

needed, but now all reserved areas also grab a reference to their address
space.
* Rearranged team tear down to be a bit more sane: the I/O context is removed
first (where semaphores/areas/ports/whatever might still be used), and the
address space is deleted last.
* delete_area() can now remove its address space reference again (due to the
two changes above), and therefore fixes bug #1374.

* Added team::{stopped,continued}_children, which, analoguously to
dead_children, are used to track the state of stopped/continued
children.
* A team does have a job_control_entry, which is allocated at team
creation time. It will be inserted into the parent's
{stopped,continued}_children lists as the team's main thread is
stopped/continued and removed when waitpid() retrieves the child
state. When the team dies the entry is detached from the team and goes
into the parent's dead_children list.
* Removed the wait_for_any field from team_dead_children. It was solely
used to avoid deletion of the contained entries in certain situations.
wait_for_child() (the waitpid() backend) always deletes an entry now,
regardless of whether other threads are waiting; that's in
accordance with the waidpid() specification. wait_for_thread() removes
the entry only, if the caller is the parent of the respective team.
* Introduced team_set_job_control_state() which performes the job
control entry transitions between the respective lists and wakes up
threads waiting in wait_for_child(). It is invoked on team death and
when the team's main thread receives job control signals.
* Reorganized wait_for_child(). It handles WCONTINUED and WUNTRACED now,
too. Removed a block that interpreted the supplied ID as thread ID.
* Added missing parts in waitpid().
Job control starts to work, though it seems to have some glitches.

* It is now possible for a thread to wait for more than one condition

that it is now possible to wake up only one of the waiting threads.

* get_signal_stack() checked the wrong sig_action field (index is signal-1), also,
it had an off-by-one error in the stack range check.
* factored out a restart_syscall() function to avoid code duplication
* arch_setup_signal_frame() relied on the fact that vregs and the signal stack code
is a multiple of 4 bytes in size.
* Fixed sigaction(): it did return the error code directly instead of setting errno.
* signal() actually had a work-around for the broken sigaction()...
* Replaced the sig_func_t typedef with a sighandler_t typedef - this is non-standard
anyway, but now we're at least compatible with the GNU world instead of introducing
our own solution (BSD seems to use sig_t here, BTW).
* Removed now unused sigval structure from the header; it should be added again as
soon as we start supporting it.
* SA_RESETHAND and SA_ONESHOT are the same thing; the former did not work before.
* Made the non-standard SA_* flags refer to the standard ones instead of the other
way around.
* Added a test application for various signal features - works fine under Haiku,
tested also under Linux and BeOS (the latter fails as it does not support SA_RESTART).
More tests should be added, though.

if the page was already in the "modified" list before. Also, the source page (which is
either mapped directly or copied to the target page) is no longer marked busy before its
final destiny is decided (it didn't have any effect, anyway, since we had its cache

* fixes a dead lock in vm_soft_fault() - the locking scheme enforces you to
lock the address space before a vm_cache, not the other way, around. Since
we need to lock the cache that has our page in fault_get_page(), we violated
that scheme by relocking the address space in order to get access to the
vm_area. Now, we read lock the address space during the whole page fault;
added a TODO that explains why this might not really be desirable, if
we can avoid it (the only way would be to reverse that locking scheme
which would potentially cause the more busy vm_cache locks to be held
longer).
* vm_copy_area() uses the MultiAddressSpaceLocker, but actually forget to
call Lock() on it...
* delete_area() leaks vm_address_space references - but fixing this currently
causes other problems to be investigated; I'll open a bug for that.

* Removed the ref_count from vm_areas. You now always need to have the address
space locked (read or write, depending on what you do) when dealing with
areas.
* Added helper classes for locking the address space: AddressSpace{Read|Write}Locker,
and MultiAddressSpaceLocker which can lock several spaces at once and makes
sure no dead locks can happen.
* resize_area() is now using the MultiAddressSpaceLocker instead of no locking
at all; ie. it should now be safely to use.
* Disabled transfer_area() for now; it will be changed to work like an atomic
clone_area()/delete_area(), that is, it will hand out a new ID for the
transfered area.

that an error can be propagated back to vm_soft_fault().
* Added boolean restart reference parameter to fault_find_page() which
is set to true whenever a condition is it encountered that requires
to start fault_find_page() from the very beginning. fault_get_page()
checks the flag and executes fault_find_page() in a loop, now.
* Removed the panic()s+TODOs in fault_find_page() when a cache became
busy. The restart feature is used in this case.
* fault_find_page(): If after the loop we haven't found a page yet,
and after locking the right cache one turned up, we restart the
function, too, thus avoiding double insertion of a page into a cache.
* Fixed potential dead-lock in fault_get_page(): After inserting a clean
page into a cache other than the top cache (read fault on
copy-on-write area not backed by a file (e.g. the heap)) the dummy
page was removed from the to be locked top cache while we still held a
lock for the lower cache, thus inverting the locking direction
required by the cache locking policy (top -> bottom).
* fault_get_page(): In case of a write access and a readable page found
in a lower cache, vm_cache_remove_consumer() could have replaced our
dummy page with a real page from a collapsed lower cache while we
had unlocked both caches. We didn't check for this condition and
always inserted our freshly allocated page, thus potentially inserting
a duplicate page into the top cache. We do the check now and discard our
page, when another page turned up. Fixes bug #1359.
* fault_get_page(), same if block: Removed unused case for removal of the
dummy page from a non-top cache. We only ever insert it into the top
cache and it should not be moved to another cache. Added an assert.

Inode::WriteDataToBuffer() now loops in case it still couldn't write anything
instead of failing - this fixes a race condition (ie. a device is full message).

after waiting for it to become filled), ReadRequest::PutBuffer() overwrote the
output data. This fixes bug #1331.

from the store into the top cache, which could lead to pages inserted
multiple times into the cache. We don't insert a dummy page in this case
anymore. Instead we mark a freshly allocated page busy and insert that
one. That's exactly the approach the file cache uses too. This does

* No longer put the module image for B_KEEP_LOADED modules - essentially,
that feature was broken.
* Now use the RecursiveLocker in favour of manual locking where appropriate.
This actually fixed two locking bugs in error code paths.
* Applied a patch by François Revol: open_module_list() did not work
when the prefix was already inside a module (as opposed to a directory
on disk). The current solution is not as efficient, but that can be
fixed by improving the iterator code.

* Simplified the notification framework: removed the updater stuff completely;
it was only there to account for some peculiarities of the node monitor which
we now solved differently.
* NotificationListener no longer includes a doubly linked list link for convenience;
it might want to listen to more than just one service.
* NotificationService cannot have an abstract destructor.
* Changed the _user_stop_watching() syscall to mirror the Be API; ie. it's no
longer possible to just remove some flags separately, just to stop listening
completely.
* Adapted the node monitor implementation to live in the NodeMonitorService class
that uses the new notification framework.
* Removed the public kernel node monitor API - it wasn't useful that way since you
couldn't do a lot with the KMessage in the kernel without using a private API.
Now you will have to use the (private) notification manager to use the node monitor
from inside the kernel. At a later point, we might introduce a public API for that,
too.

* Added KMessage to the runtime_loader (a bit hacky, though) - it will use
it to deliver the above mentioned functionality.
* load_dependencies() did return the wrong status code in case a library
was missing; now it returns B_MISSING_LIBRARY.
* load_dependencies() will now try to load all dependencies when a report
message is requested; therefore, all missing libraries are listed.
* Renamed uspace_program_args to user_space_program_args.
* The kernel filled in various members of the user_space_program_args structure
unsafely, ie. was not using user_memcpy().
* Renamed some local variables in team.c to better fit our style guide (ie.
uargs to userArgs).
* Changed Tracker to use the new _kern_load_image() variant on Haiku to retrieve

* More conditional debug code (wrt page transitions between caches).
* Replaced debugger command cache_chain by a nicer cache_tree.
* While handling a soft fault: When we temporarily unlock a cache, it
can theoretically become busy. One such occurrence is now handled
properly, two more panic() ATM, though should be fixed.
* When merging caches, we do now always replace a dummy page in the
upper cache, not only when the concurrent page fault is a read fault.
This prevents a page from the lower (to be discarded) cache from still
remaining mapped (causing a panic).
* When merging caches and replacing a dummy page, we were trying to
remove the dummy page from the wrong cache (causing a panic).
The Haiku kernel seems now to run shockingly stable. ATM, we have more
than two hours uptime of a system booted and running over network. We
didn't manage to get it down by fully building Pe, downloading, unzipping,

server drawing bugs, though (hint, hint! ;-)).

* Refactored RescanDiskSystems(). Pulled out a function
_RescanDiskSystems() that scans for either file or partitioning
systems. RescanDiskSystems(), which scanned for file systems only
before, is used from the constructor as well (open_module_list()
works in the early boot process since a while).
* Made InitialDeviceScan() and partition scanning safe to be called a second
time. We call it directly after the kernel has mounted the boot
volume, now, so that additional disk systems from the boot volume have a
chance to recognize previously unrecognized partitions. This is a
temporary change only; later the disk device manager shall
automatically find out when new disk systems/devices/whatever are
available.

* Images preloaded by the boot loader had to be modules to be of any use
to the kernel. Extended the mechanism so that any images not accepted
by the module code would later be tried to be added as drivers by the
devfs. This is a little hacky ATM, since the devfs manages the drivers
using a hash map keyed by the drivers inode ID, which those drivers
obviously don't have.
* The devfs emulates read_pages() using read(), if the device driver
doesn't implement the former (all old-style drivers), thus making it
possible to BFS, which uses the file cache which in turn requires
read_pages(), on the device. write_pages() emulation is still missing.
* Replaced the kernel_args::boot_disk structure by a KMessage, which can
more flexibly be extended and deals more gracefully with
arbitrarily-size data. The disk_identifier structure still exists,
though. It is added as message field in cases where needed (non net
boot). Moved the boot_drive_number field of the bios_ia32 platform
specific args into the message.
* Made the stage 1 PXE boot loader superfluous. Moved the relevant
initialization code into the stage 2 loader, which can now be loaded
directly via PXE.
* The PXE boot loader does now download a boot tgz archive via TFTP. It
does no longer use the RemoteDisk protocol (it could actually be
removed from the boot loader). It also parses the DHCP options in the
DHCPACK packet provided by PXE and extracts the root path to be
mounted by the kernel.
* Reorganized the boot volume search in the kernel (vfs_boot.cpp) and
added support for network boot. In this case the net stack is
initialized and the network interface the boot loader used is brought
up and configured. Since NBD and RemoteDisk are our only options for
net boot (and those aren't really configurable dynamically) ATM, the
the boot device is found automatically by the disk device manager.
Booting via PXE does work to some degree now. The most grievous problem
is that loading certain drivers or kernel modules (or related activity)
causes a reboot (likely a triple fault, though one wonders where our
double fault handler is on vacation). Namely the keyboard and mouse input
server add-ons need to be deactivated as well as the media server.
A smaller problem is the net server, which apparently tries to
(re-)configure the network interface we're using to boot, which
obviously doesn't work out that well. So, if all this stuff is disabled
Haiku does fully boot, when using the RemoteDisk protocol (not being
able to use keyboard or mouse doesn't make this a particular fascinating
experience, though ;-)). I had no luck with NBD -- it seemed to have
protocol problems with the servers I tried.

* The SetTo() methods do now accept an unspecified (negative) bufferSize
in case of being told to initialize from the given buffer.
* Added handy Get*() methods returning a field element value or a
supplied default value, if the field element doesn't exist.
* Added also handy Set*() methods setting the value of first element of
a field, i.e. adding it, if it didn't exist before, otherwise
replacing the old value. Only for fixed size types.
* Moved _FindType() inline template method into the header.
* Made the source file fit for use in the boot loader. If the macro
KMESSAGE_CONTAINER_ONLY is defined, the message sending/receiving part
is omitted.

* vfs_get_vnode_cache() now always gives out a reference to the cache it
returns; if it needs to allocate a new one, the vnode owns one reference,
and the caller another.
* therefore, file_cache_create() now owns a reference to its vm_cache_ref, and
frees it in file_cache_delete().

it's reference to the cache until it has unlocked it.
* It now also locks its reference from the start, preventing any other thread

* vm_cache_remove_consumer() now detects if it has to remove a foreign busy
page itself in order to preserve a mapped page.
* vm_soft_fault() now keeps a reference to the cache that owns the page to be

* vm_unmap_pages() removed the mappings of all pages of the area instead of only
those that are within the requested range.

When iterating through modules, the iterator was loading the module file, inserting it into the module image hash. Then, the first time get_module() was called on a module contained in the image, it was trying to load the image again. It probably actually was.

short, if the FD table size wasn't a multiple of 8.
* vfs_resize_fd_table() didn't seem to know at all about the
close-on-exit bitmap. The pointer in the io_context would point to
free()d memory afterwards. This explains the sporadically closed
stdin/out/err descriptors in programs started from Tracker and
Deskbar.

* Added a comment to vm_remove_all_page_mappings() that shows that we need to
change the mapping spinlock into a mutex.
* Pointed out some potential problems in the code.
* Added vm_page_at_index(), vm_clear_map_activation(), and vm_test_map_activation()
in preparation of the page scanner rewrite.

mapped fully read-only (for both kernel and userland). Previously a
kernel read access to a yet unmapped r/w accessible userland address
would cause the page from the lower cache to be mapped with write
permission for userland (on x86 also for the kernel) thus e.g.
allowing a fork()ed child process to write to the parent process'
memory.
Fixes bugs #113 and #928.

{set,clear}_debugger_{break,watch}point(), allowing to set/clear break
and watchpoints for the calling team. When a break/watchpoint is hit,
the team enters the debugger. Handy in situations when the program in
question can't really be started in a debugger (or it would be
complicated to do so). The functions work only as long as no debugger is
installed for the team.
We clear the arch specific team and thread debug infos now, when a new
debugger is installed, thus clearing break- and watchpoints.

* NewBlock()/FreeBlock() are now symmetrical in that the former no longer inserts
the block into the hash table.
* delete_transaction() also no longer removes the transaction from the hash table.
* cache_transaction_sync() now uses the new hash_remove_current() function.
* minor other cleanup (like line breaks).

start address wasn't aligned and numBytes was a multiple of the page
size, the last page was ignored. A subsequent get_memory_map() would
return NULL as physical address for that page, if it hadn't been mapped
before (that function looks generally suspicious, IMHO). E.g. reads from a
device into an unaligned buffer that hadn't been touched before would
hit that problem. Fixes bug #1075. Might also fix other reported
problems (like #1056), since this bug could have cause all kinds of weird
behavior and crashes.

that points to both, the page and the area the page is in. This will allow a page
scanner to steal unused pages when necessary.
* The locking is currently done with a spinlock which we might want to have another
look at one day.
* dump_page() and dump_area_struct() now dump the page mappings as well.

add-ons accordingly and removed the syscall.
* Removed send_notification().
* Reimplemented notify_listener(). It used the unimplemented
send_notification(). Now it has a chance to work. Note that
notify_listener() is obsolete. I would already have removed it, if
there weren't lots of FS implementations still using it (Hint!).

vnode::covered_by fields. Together with sMountOpLock it allows write
access, either lock alone suffices for read access. Before
sMountOpLock had to be acquired for read (and write) access, which
meant that while mounting/unmounting a FS path resolution would have
to wait. In case of the UserlandFS this would even cause a deadlock
while mounting if the client tried to resolve the path of the device
to be mounted (e.g. by opening it).
* Added a clarifying comment about read access to the
fs_mount::covers_vnode/root_vnode field and removed locking in
resolve_volume_root_to_mount_point() which was not necessary for
explained reasons.

name (saves copying the name, if that has to be done anyway) and added a
wrapper version with the old interface.
* dir_vnode_to_path() was broken for file systems that didn't support
the get_vnode_name() hook. It resolved the mount point too early, so
that it was searching the mount point and not the FS root dir for the
node. It uses the get_vnode_name() function now (before resolving the
mount point).

to B_FULL_LOCK.
* vm_clone_area() now respects the source area's wiring and inherits it. This
should fix bug #1055.
* vm_cache::type is now duplicated in vm_area::cache_type - this allows looking
it up without having to lock a vm_cache_ref; this also solves a locking bug
in vm_unmap_pages() in this regard.

Basically, there was a pretty subtle race between the cpus in main where if the main cpu released the AP cpus and then before the AP cpus had a chance to run the boot cpu started creating the main thread (which causes smp ici messages to be created) the system would livelock, where the boot cpu waited forever for the AP cpu to acknowledge the ICI (for a TLB flush when creating the kernel stack).
Added smp_cpu_rendezvous(), used to synchronize all the cpus to a particular point, and used it a few times in main().
While i was at it i fixed another race that'll probably never happen, but what the hey. Make sure the kernel args are copied into kernel space by the main cpu before letting any other ones use it.

* vm_area and vm_page now have a new field "mappings" where they will store lists
of vm_page_mapping structures. vm_page::ref_count is gone, as it's no longer
needed (it was never updated correctly, anyway).
* vm_caches now have a type field, ie. CACHE_TYPE_RAM for anonymous areas - this
makes the stores a bit less independent, but is quite handy in several places.
* Added new vm_map_page() and vm_unmap_pages() functions to be used whenever you
map in or unmap pages into/from an area. They don't do much more than handling
vm_page::wired_count correctly right now, though (ie. B_LAZY_LOCK is now working
as expected as well).
* Moved the device fault handler to vm_map_physical_memory(); it was not really
used as a fault handler, anyway.
* Didn't notice Ingo's changes to the I/O space region broke lock_memory(). It
now checks the type of the area that contains the memory, and doesn't lock
anymore if not needed which solves the problem in a platform independent way.
* Implemented lock_memory() and unlock_memory() for real: they now change the
vm_page::wired_count member to identify pages that shouldn't be paged out.
* vm_area_for() now uses vm_area_lookup() internally.
* Fixed various potential overflow conditions with areas that reach 0xffffffff.
* Creating anonymous areas with B_FULL_LOCK no longer causes vm_soft_fault()
to be called, instead, the pages are allocated and mapped (via vm_map_page())
directly.
* Removed the _vm_ prefix for create_area_struct() and create_reserved_area_struct().
* Fixed a bug in vm_page_write_modified() that would not have enqueued pages that
failed to be written to the modified queue again when needed.

* Renamed them, made everything static besides vm_allocate_early() (previous
vm_alloc_from_kernel_args()) which now allows you to specify a different
virtual than physical size, and therefore makes vm_alloc_virtual_from_kernel_args()
superfluous (which isn't exported anymore, and is now called allocate_early_virtual()).
* Enabled printing a stack trace on serial output on team crash - it doesn't hurt
for now, anyway.
* Cleanup.

The kernel arg logic was faulty, and wasn't using strlcpy properly (which returns the size of the src string, not the remaining size). Replaced it with a simpler, but less efficient series of strlcat()s.

The first use is to let the kernel decide what the preferred syscall mechanism is at boot time and copy the
appropriate user space code there. Can be used for routines the kernel can decide best how to use (memcpy, some
timing routines, etc).

the new cpuid stuff was apparently exacerbating an existing problem where various bits of low level
cpu code (specifically get_current_cpu) weren't really initialized before being used. Changed the
order to set up a fake set of threads to point each cpu at really early in boot to make sure that at
all points in code it can get the current 'thread' and thus the current cpu.
A probably better solution would be to have dr3 point to the current cpu which would then point to the
current thread, but that has a race condition that would require an int disable, etc.

away cpuid info into the current cpu structure. Trouble was the code was running before the current
thread pointer was set on each cpu, so it was always looking up cpu 0's structure and saving there,
leaving the other ones uninitialized. Surprisingly this works fine on my machine, but obviously fails
on others (cpuid info would have been zeroed probably). Solution is to change the order that things
are brought up on each cpu to set the current thread pointer first. I don't really like that solution
but it'll work for now. Added a comment to the effect.

Now two complete tss structures exist within the per-cpu structure. Instead
of having to create a seperate area per each one, initialize them in place.
Also, the old mechanism to getting all of the cpus to get initialized was
subtly broken, but still managed to work. Now, just force all the cpus to
initialize at boot, which makes the actual swapping of esp0 somewhat simpler.

* recursive_lock_unlock() now returns a void to mirror it's counterpart better;
use recursive_lock_get_recursion() if you're interested in the lock depth.
* switch_sem(), and release_sem() now don't do anything anymore in kernel startup
mode.

for one quantum wasn't really a good idea, as this could get quite expensive for the thread
(depending on the system load, it might have taken a long time until the thread was scheduled
again, no matter what priority it was).
Also, calling thread_yield() in a loop would have taken 100% CPU time.
Now, we sort the thread into the queue as with any other thread, but we'll ignore it once.
This now guarantees an actual context switch, as well as a much fairer rescheduling policy
for threads calling that function.

at boot, per cpu, detect the cpu, pull down all the relevant cpuid bits and
save them into the per-cpu structure. Changed most of the code scattered here
and there that reads the cpuid to use a new api, x86_check_feature, which looks
at the saved bits.
Also changed the system_info stuff to read from these bits.
While i was at it, refreshed all the bits to be current.

Replaced the _kern_null syscall with _kern_is_computer_on.
is_computer_on_fire is a bit harder, since it returns a float from kernelland, which
at the moment isn't supported in haiku.

* we now always flush the TLBs after having unmapped some pages.
* vm_soft_fault() could traverse to a source cache while it was being collapsed
by vm_cache_remove_consumer() - this is now no longer possible as the latter
marks the cache as busy when doing so, and the former now tests this flag and
locks the cache (via the new fault_acquire_locked_source() function).
* if fault_acquire_locked_source() fails with B_BUSY, the current cache is locked
again, and tested again for the page - as it might have been moved upwards to it
with the destruction of its former source.
* The cache delivering the page for vm_soft_fault() is now locked until the end;
it can no longer go away before having actually mapped the page into the area.
* This also fixes the issue where pages would get lost as vm_soft_fault() put the
page in the active list, no matter if its cache still existed.
* Also, we now keep a reference of to a cache in case a dummy page is inserted; this
makes again sure that it doesn't go away during the execution of vm_soft_fault()
(which could even add this page to the free list...).
* divided vm_soft_fault() into several smaller functions which should make it much
more readable.
* Added a "cache_chain" KDL command that dumps the whole chain until the bottom
when giving a pointer to a vm_cache as parameter.
* now usually call vm_cache_acquire_ref() before map_backing_store(), even though
it shouldn't be really needed (I added it for debugging purposes).
* Some minor cleanup.
* NOTE: a major problem still persists: when removing a vm_cache, it's possible
that some of its pages are still mapped, and there is currently no mechanism
to get rid of these mappings! I've added TODO comments into vm_cache.c where
appropriate.

process group. This fixes bug #996.
* As a result, the process group stuff and wait_for_child() got much simpler;
get_death_entry() and update_wait_for_any() could go away completely.
* If a team goes away, all of its children are now "reparented" to the kernel team,
instead of the team's parent - this follows common implementations (and POSIX if
I understand it correctly), but not BeOS anymore. The OpenGroup Base says this
about this topic: "If a parent process terminates without waiting for all of its
child processes to terminate, the remaining child processes shall be assigned a
new parent process ID corresponding to an implementation-defined system process."
* We wait too long in wait_test_4 which at least puts us on par with Linux; see
comment in _user_setpgid().
