* If at least one image is either B_HAIKU_ABI_GCC_2_ANCIENT or
B_HAIKU_ABI_GCC_2_BEOS almost all areas are marked as executable.
* B_EXECUTE_AREA and B_STACK_AREA are made public. The former is enforced since
the introduction of DEP and apps need it to correctly set area protection.
The latter is currently needed only to recognize stack areas and fix their
protection in compatibility mode, but may also be useful if an app wants
to use sigaltstack from POSIX API.
This address specification is actually not needed since PIC images can be
located anywhere. Only their size is restriced but that is the compiler and
linker concern. Thanks to Alex Smith for pointing that out.
On some 64 bit architectures program and library images have to be mapped in
the lower 2 GB of the address space (due to instruction pointer relative
addressing). Address specification B_RANDOMIZED_IMAGE_ADDRESS ensures that
created area satisfies that requirement.
Randomized equivalent of B_ANY_ADDRESS. When a free space is found (as in
B_ANY_ADDRESS) the base adress is then randomized using _RandomizeAddress
pretty much like it is done in B_RANDOMIZED_BASE_ADDRESS.
B_RAND_BASE_ADDRESS is basically B_BASE_ADDRESS with non-deterministic created
area's base address.
Initial start address is randomized and then the algorithm looks for a large
enough free space in the interval [randomized start, end]. If it fails then
the search is repeated in the interval [original start, randomized start]. In
case it also fails the algorithm falls back to B_ANY_ADDRESS
(B_RANDOMIZED_ANY_ADDRESS when it is implemented) just like B_BASE_ADDRESS does.
Randomization range is limited by kMaxRandomize and kMaxInitialRandomize.
The cookie is used to store the base address of the area that was just
visited. On 64-bit systems, int32 is not sufficient. Therefore, changed
to ssize_t which retains compatibility on x86 while expanding to a
sufficient size 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.
* Map build variables HOST_CPU and HOST_ARCH to x86_64, if it they are
* x86 and
64 bit and define the __x86_64__ C macro instead of __INTEL__ in that
case.
* <OS.h>: Also handle __x86_64__.
* Reorganized the kernel locking related to threads and teams.
* We now discriminate correctly between process and thread signals. Signal
handlers have been moved to teams. Fixes#5679.
* Implemented real-time signal support, including signal queuing, SA_SIGINFO
support, sigqueue(), sigwaitinfo(), sigtimedwait(), waitid(), and the addition
of the real-time signal range. Closes#1935 and #2695.
* Gave SIGBUS a separate signal number. Fixes#6704.
* Implemented <time.h> clock and timer support, and fixed/completed alarm() and
[set]itimer(). Closes#5682.
* Implemented support for thread cancellation. Closes#5686.
* Moved send_signal() from <signal.h> to <OS.h>. Fixes#7554.
* Lots over smaller more or less related changes.

the constraint can be expressed more precisely. ATM B_32_BIT_FULL_LOCK is
implemented as B_32_BIT_CONTIGUOUS when B_HAIKU_PHYSICAL_BITS > 32, though.

system_time_nsecs(), returning the system time in nanoseconds. The function
is only really implemented for x86. For the other architectures
system_time() * 1000 is returned.

* Renamed time.c to time.cpp.
* set_timezone() now uses localtime_r() instead of localtime(), and will also
no longer fail in case there was no timezone symlink before.
* Cleaned up OS.h header.

Make sure the comments are C style in headers that are included by POSIX
headers.
Thanks! Should fix#2870.

as public defines. They are now called THREAD_{MIN|MAX}_SET_PRIORITY to
better reflect what they are for. Minimum priority is now 1, ie. you no
longer can set another thread to the idle priority. This fixes part of
ticket #2959.
* set_thread_priority() will no longer allow to change the priority of the
idle thread to something else. This fixes the rest of ticket #2959.
* Automatic whitespace cleanup in OS.h.

* Add a cached_pages field to the system_info structure, and change the
meaning of the used_pages field to not include cached pages.
* Provide the needed info using the new calls vm_get_available_memory(),

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.
