c1be1e0761 * VMTranslationMap::Map()/Protect(): Added "memoryType" parameter. Not
implemented for any architecture yet.
* vm_set_area_memory_type(): Call VMTranslationMap::ProtectArea() to change the
  memory type for the already mapped pages.

3b0c1b5227 * VMArea: Made memory_type private and added setter and getter methods.
* Don't set the VMArea's memory type in arch_vm_set_memory_type(), but let the
  callers do that.
* vm_set_area_memory_type(): Does nothing, if the memory type doesn't change.

907886143f * Changed some parameters of VM syscalls from int to uint32, mostly for sake
of consistency.
* Moved the B_OVERCOMMITTING_AREA flag from B_KERNEL_AREA_FLAGS to
  B_USER_AREA_FLAGS, since we really allow it to be passed from userland.
* Most VM syscalls check the provided protection against B_USER_AREA_FLAGS
  instead of B_USER_PROTECTION, now. This way they allow for
  B_OVERCOMMITTING_AREA as well.
* _user_map_file(), _user_set_memory_protection(): Check the protection like
  the other syscalls do and use fix_protection() instead of doing that
  manually.

7f987e49d7 Added a rendez-vous variable parameter to smp_trap_non_boot_cpus() and make
boot CPU wait until all other CPUs are ready to wait. This solves a
theoretical problem in main(): The boot CPU could run fully through the early
initialization and reset sCpuRendezvous2 before the other CPUs left
smp_cpu_rendezvous(). It's very unlikely on real hardware that the non-boot
CPUs are so much slower, but it might be a concern in emulation.

28d05e026f Make scheduler_reschedule() an no-op until we're ready to start the
scheduler. This avoids the need to use the send_signal_etc() work-around for
resume_thread() during the early kernel initialization. Might fix #5851.

b1e06d23ce * The "page_stats" command does now also print the longest contiguous runs of
free respective free and cached pages.
* Removed the unused vm_page_allocate_page_run_no_base().
* vm_page_allocate_page_run() (and allocate_page_run()):
  - Use vm_page_reserve_pages() instead of vm_page_try_reserve_pages(), i.e.
    wait until the reservation succeeds.
  - Now we iterates two times through the pages to find a suitable page run. In
    the first iteration it only looks for free/clear pages, in the second
    iteration it also considers cached pages. This increases the chance of the
    function to succeed, when a lot of caching is going on.
    This reduces the amount of memory required to use the IOCache when booting
    off the anyboot Live CD to around 160 MB in qemu. It also seems to work with
    128 MB, but the syslog indicates that some memory allocations fail, which
    is not exactly inspiring confidence.

swap space when the cache shrinks. Currently the implementation stil leaks
swap space of busy pages.

can safely be used.
* Since using the I/O APIC is disabled by default, I've removed the "return"
  that prevented its use when enabled. Let's see if it already does anything.
* Adapted other arch_int.cpp with a bit of cleanup.

c3676b54bf * Added vm_debug_copy_page_memory() which copies memory from a potentially not
mapped page.
* debug_{mem,strl}cpy():
  - Added "team" parameter for specifying the address space the address are
    to be interpreted in.
  - When the standard memcpy() (with fault handler) fails, fall back to
    vm_debug_copy_page_memory().
* Added debug_is_debugged_team(): Predicate returning true, if the supplied
  team_id refers to the same team debug_get_debugged_thread() belongs to.
* Added DebuggedThreadSetter class for scope-based debug_set_debugged_thread().
  Made use of it in several debugger functions.
* print_demangled_call() (x86): Fixed unsafe memory access.

Allows KDL stack traces to work correctly again, even if the page daemon has
already unmapped the concerned pages.

33fbe25496 * Add code to allocate and free interrupt vectors for message signaled
interrupts (MSI).
* Add the remaining IDT entries and redirection functions in the interrupt code.
* Make the PIC end_of_interrupt() return a result to indicate whether the vector
  was handled by this PIC. If it isn't we now issue a apic_end_of_interrupt()
  in the assumption of apic local interrupt, MSI or IPI. This also removes
  the need for the gUsingIOAPIC global and doing manual apic_end_of_interrupt()
  calls in the SMP and timer code.

seperated the header which was originally arch_smp.h into apic.h and arch_smp.h
again as some of it is MP and not actually APIC.

813d4cbe94 * Moved created subdirectory src/system/kernel/lock.cpp to new subdirectory
locks.
* Added syscalls for a new kind of mutex. A mutex consists only of an int32 and
  doesn't require any kernel resources. So it's initialization cannot fail
  (it consists only of setting the mutex value to 0). An uncontended lock or
  unlock operation can basically consist of an atomic_*() in userland. The
  syscalls (when the mutex is contended) are a bit more expensive than semaphore
  operations, though.

2be99447d8 * Added some comments to the thread flags.
* Added new thread flag THREAD_FLAGS_ALWAYS_RESTART_SYSCALL. If set, it forces
  syscall restart even when a signal handler without SA_RESTART was invoked.
* Fixed sigwait(): If one of requested signals wasn't already pending it would
  never wake up. Also, the syscall always needs to be restarted, if interrupted
  by another signal.
* Renamed a bunch of the POSIX signal function implementations which did return
  an error code directly (instead via errno). Added correct POSIX functions
  where needed.

* [un]lock_memory_etc(): Call VMArea::Unwire() with the cache locked and
  explicitly delete the range object after unlocking the cache to avoid
  potential deadlocks.

  locking the area's top cache.

Fixes #5680 (deadlocks when using the slab as malloc() backend).

550376ffb8 * vm_delete_areas(): Changed return type to void (was status_t and not used).
* _user_map_file(), _user_unmap_memory(): Verify that the address (if given) is
  page aligned.
* Reworked memory locking (wiring):
  - VMArea does now have a list of wired memory ranges and supports waiting for
    a range to be removed.
  - vm_soft_fault():
    - Added "wirePage" parameter that, if given, makes the function wire the
      page and return it.
    - Added "wiredRange" parameter (for calls from lock_memory_etc()) and made
      sure we never unmap wired pages. This could e.g. happen when a page from a
      lower cache was read-mapped and a write fault occurred. Now in such a
      situation the function waits for the page to be unwired and restarts.
  - All functions that manipulate areas in a way that could affect wired ranges
    do now either require the caller to make sure there are no wired ranges in
    the way or do that themselves. Added a few wait_if_*_is_wired() helper
    functions for that purpose.
  - lock_memory_etc():
    - Does now also work correctly when the range spans more than one area.
    - Adds VMAreaWiredRanges to the affected VMAreas and retains an address
      space reference (so that the address space won't be deleted as long as a
      wired range exists).
    - Resolved TODO: The area's caches are now locked when
      increment_page_wired_count() is called.
    - Resolved TODO: The race condition due to missing locking after looking up
      the page mapping is now prevented. We hold the cache locks (in case the
      page is already mapped) and the new vm_soft_fault() parameter allows us
      to get the page wired.
  - unlock_memory_etc(): Changes symmetrical to those in lock_memory_etc() and
    resolved all TODOs.

feddedab0c x86:
Added fields for temporary storage of the debug registers dr6 and dr7 to the
arch_cpu_info structure. The actual registers are stored at the beginning of
x86_exit_user_debug_at_kernel_entry() and read in
x86_handle_debug_exception().
The problem was that x86_exit_user_debug_at_kernel_entry() itself overwrote
dr7 and, if kernel breakpoints were enabled, dr6 could be overwritten anytime
after. So x86_handle_debug_exception() would find incorrect values in the
registers (definitely in dr7) and thus interpret the detected debug condition
incorrectly. Usually watchpoints were recognized as breakpoints.

  registers.
* x86:
  - Replaced the previous arch_debug_save_registers() implementation. Disabled
    getting the registers via the gdb interface for the time being.
  - Fixed the "sc", "call", and "calling" commands to also work for threads
    running on another CPU.

* Fixed errno. It would crash when being used. Also changed the POSIX functions
  to return their error code via errno as expected.

  - Added support for reading long file names.
  - Added support for creating files (8.3 name only) and writing to them.
  - Enabled scanning partitions with it.
* Boot loader menu:

28a2172c3f kernel:
* The kernel syslog ring buffer is no longer emptied by the syslog sender
  thread. Instead we only drop the oldest data from the buffer when we're
  writing to it and there's not enough free space in it.
  Advantages: We drop old data rather than the most recent data when the buffer
  is full. The "syslog" KDL command has more data available now. So the odds
  are that kernel syslog messages not written to disk yet are at least still
  in the kernel buffer.
* Changed dprintf_no_syslog() semantics: Now it writes to the syslog, but
  doesn't notify the syslog sender thread.

boot loader:
* Added the ring_buffer implementation and a dummy user_memcpy().
* bios_x86: Moved the syslog stuff from serial.{cpp,h} to debug.{cpp.h}.
* Moved the debug options from the "Select safe mode options" menu to a new
  "Select debug options" menu.
* Added option "Enable debug syslog" to the new menu (ATM available on x86
  only). It allocates a 1 MB in-memory buffer for the syslog for this session
  in such a way that it can be accessed by the boot loader after a reset.
* Added item "Display syslog from previous session" to the new menu, doing
  what its name suggests.

d40a935560 Boot loader (x86 mmu.cpp):
* Made the page table allocation more flexible. Got rid of sMaxVirtualAddress
  and added new virtual_end address to the architecture specific kernel args.
* Increased the virtual space we reserve for the kernel to 16 MB. That
  should suffice for quite a while. The previous 2 MB were too tight when
  building the kernel with debug info.
* mmu_init(): The way we were translating the BIOS' extended memory map to
  our physical ranges arrays was broken. Small gaps between usable memory
  ranges would be ignored and instead marked allocated. This worked fine for
  the boot loader and during the early kernel initialization, but after the
  VM has been fully set up it frees all physical ranges that have not been
  claimed otherwise. So those ranges could be entered into the free pages
  list and would be used later. This could possibly cause all kinds of weird
  problems, probably including ACPI issues. Now we add only the actually
  usable ranges to our list.

Kernel:
* vm_page_init(): The pages of the ranges between the usable physical memory
  ranges are now marked PAGE_STATE_UNUSED, the allocated ranges
  PAGE_STATE_WIRED.
* unmap_and_free_physical_pages(): Don't free pages marked as unused.

ff59ce680d * The low resource handler now empties the cache depot's magazines; before,

* Made the magazine capacity variable per cache, ie. for larger objects, it's

* Furthermore, the create_object_cache_etc()/object_depot_init() now have
  arguments for the magazine capacity as well as the maximum number of full
  unused magazines.
* By default, you might want to initialize both to zero, as then some hopefully
  usable defaults are computed. Otherwise (the only current example is the
  vm_page_mapping cache) you can just put in the values you'd want there.
  The page mapping cache uses larger values, as its objects are usually
  allocated and deleted in larger chunks.
* Beware, though, I couldn't test these changes yet as Qemu didn't like to run
  today. I'll test these changes on another machine now.

dac21d8bfe * map_physical_memory() does now always set a memory type. If none is given (it
needs to be or'ed to the address specification), "uncached" is assumed.
* Set the memory type for the "BIOS" and "DMA" areas to write-back. Not sure, if
  that's correct, but that's what was effectively used on my machines before.
* Changed x86_set_mtrrs() and the CPU module hook to also set the default memory
  type.
* Rewrote the MTRR computation once more:
  - Now we know all used memory ranges, so we are free to extend used ranges
    into unused ones in order to simplify them for MTRR setup.
  - Leverage the subtractive properties of uncached and write-through ranges to
    simplify ranges of any other respectively write-back type.
  - Set the default memory type to write-back, so we don't need MTRRs for the
    RAM ranges.
  - If a new range intersects with an existing one, we no longer just fail.
    Instead we use the strictest requirements implied by the ranges. This fixes
    #5383.

Overall the new algorithm should be sufficient with far less MTRRs than before
(on my desktop machine 4 are used at maximum, while 8 didn't quite suffice
before). A drawback of the current implementation is that it doesn't deal with
the case of running out of MTRRs at all, which might result in some ranges
having weaker caching/memory ordering properties than requested.

40bb94819e * Removed useless return parameter from vm_remove_all_page_mappings().
* Added vm_clear_page_mapping_accessed_flags() and
  vm_remove_all_page_mappings_if_unaccessed(), which combine the functionality
  of vm_test_map_activation(), vm_clear_map_flags(), and
  vm_remove_all_page_mappings(), thus saving lots of calls to translation map
  methods. The backend is the new method
  VMTranslationMap::ClearAccessedAndModified().
* Started to make use of the cached page queue and changed the meaning of the
  other non-free queues slightly:
  - Active queue: Contains mapped pages that have been used recently.
  - Inactive queue: Contains mapped pages that have not been used recently. Also
    contains unmapped temporary pages.
  - Modified queue: Contains unmapped modified pages.
  - Cached queue: Contains unmapped unmodified pages (LRU sorted).
  Unless we're actually low on memory and actively do paging, modified and
  cached queues only contain non-temporary pages. Cached pages are considered
  quasi free. They still belong to a cache, but since they are unmodified and
  unmapped, they can be freed immediately. And this is what
  vm_page_[try_]reserve_pages() do now when there are no more actually free
  pages at hand. Essentially this means that pages storing cached file data,
  unless mmap()ped, no longer are considered used and don't contribute to page
  pressure. Paging will not happen as long there are enough free + cached pages
  available.
* Reimplemented the page daemon. It no longer scans all pages, but instead works
  the page queues. As long as the free pages situation is harmless, it only
  iterates through the active queue and deactivates pages that have not been
  used recently. When paging occurs it additionally scans the inactive queue and
  frees pages that have not been used recently.
* Changed the page reservation/allocation interface:
  vm_page_[try_]reserve_pages(), vm_page_unreserve_pages(), and
  vm_page_allocate_page() now take a vm_page_reservation structure pointer.
  The reservation functions initialize the structure -- currently consisting
  only of a count member for the number of still reserved pages.
  vm_page_allocate_page() decrements the count and vm_page_unreserve_pages()
  unreserves the remaining pages (if any). Advantages are that reservation/
  unreservation mismatches cannot occur anymore, that vm_page_allocate_page()
  can verify that the caller has indeed a reserved page left, and that there's
  no unnecessary pressure on the free page pool anymore. The only disadvantage
  is that the vm_page_reservation object needs to be passed around a bit.
* Reworked the page reservation implementation:
  - Got rid of sSystemReservedPages and sPageDeficit. Instead
    sUnreservedFreePages now actually contains the number of free pages that
    have not yet been reserved (it cannot become negative anymore) and the new
    sUnsatisfiedPageReservations contains the number of pages that are still
    needed for reservation.
  - Threads waiting for reservations do now add themselves to a waiter queue,
    which is ordered by descending priority (VM priority and thread priority).
    High priority waiters are served first when pages become available.
  Fixes #5328.
* cache_prefetch_vnode(): Would reserve one less page than allocated later, if
  the size wasn't page aligned.

e65c400299 * Replaced the vm_page_allocate_page*() "pageState" parameter by a more
general "flags" parameter. It encodes the target state of the page -- so
  that the page isn't unnecessarily put in the wrong page queue first -- a
  flag whether the page should be cleared, and one to indicate whether the
  page should be marked busy.
* Added page state PAGE_STATE_CACHED. Not used yet.
