Entering the boot loader menu has changed/simplified while reducing the boot time by .75 seconds.
Now it is enough to hold one of shift/Esc/F8/F12/Space. Thanks!
I've also updated the boot loader documentation to reflect the change, but I only mentioned holding shift.
I know that changing the documention directly is not preferred anymore, but I wanted to make sure this
patch is complete.

short and quite hot, so mutexes just cause more overhead due to frequent
rescheduling than waiting for the spinlocks does. The free and clear queues
are additionally protected by a R/W lock, which is mostly read-locked, save
for rare cases like allocating page runs.

device path + child partition name. When a "raw" device is unpublished the node
removal notification triggers the partition and child partitions to be
unpublished/removed. Since in that case the "raw" node is already unpublished
trying to resolve it in devfs_unpublish_partition() again to unpublish the child
partitions would fail, leaving the child partition nodes behind. When a new raw
device would then become available publishing its partitions would fail because
of these left behind nodes, causing bug #4587. Seeing that this code is more
compact and straight forward anyway I don't quite see why it was changed in the
first place.

LockAllSourceCaches()) and moved it to the beginning of the file.
* Removed sMappingLock and adjusted the locking policy for mapping/unmapping
pages: Since holding the lock of the affected pages' caches is already
required, that does now protect the page's mappings, too. The area mappings
are protected by the translation map lock, which we always acquire anyway
when mapping, unmapping, or looking up mappings.
The change results in a -j8 Haiku image build speedup of almost 10%. The
total kernel time drops almost 30%.

* Moved hash computations out of the critical sections.
* Replaced the LRU entry queue by an array of entry "generations", each
containing a sparse array of entries of that generation. Whenever a
generation is full, we clear the oldest generation and continue with that
one. The main advantage of this algorithm is that entry cache's mutex could
be replaced by an r/w lock, that most of the time only has to be read
locked in Lookup(). This does dramatically decrease contention of that
lock.
The total -j8 Haiku image build speedup is marginal, but the kernel time
drops about 7% (now being smaller than the real time).

it could fail to allocate the last page.
* mmu_free():
- Adjusted semantics to be compatible with mmu_map_physical_memory().

mixed, and because KERNEL_BASE + kMaxKernelSize doesn't mark the end of

access to a vm_page. It is basically an atomically accessed thread ID field
in the vm_page structure, which is explicitly set by macros marking the
critical sections. As a first positive effect I had to review quite a bit of
code and found several issues.
* Added several TODOs and comments. Some harmless ones, but also a few
troublesome ones in vm.cpp regarding page unmapping.
* file_cache: PrecacheIO::Prepare()/read_into_cache: Removed superfluous
vm_page_allocate_page() return value checks. It cannot fail anymore.
* Removed the heavily contended "pages" lock. We use different policies now:
- sModifiedTemporaryPages is accessed atomically.
- sPageDeficitLock and sFreePageCondition are protected by a new mutex.
- The page queues have individual locks (mutexes).
- Renamed set_page_state_nolock() to set_page_state(). Unless the caller says
otherwise, it does now lock the affected pages queues itself. Also changed
the return value to void -- we panic() anyway.
* set_page_state(): Add free/clear pages to the beginning of their respective
queues as this is more cache-friendly.
* Pages with the states PAGE_STATE_WIRED or PAGE_STATE_UNUSED are no longer
in any queue. They were in the "active" queue, but there's no good reason
to have them there. In case we decide to let the page daemon work the queues
(like FreeBSD) they would just be in the way.
* Pulled the common part of vm_page_allocate_page_run[_no_base]() into a helper
function. Also fixed a bug I introduced previously: The functions must not
vm_page_unreserve_pages() on success, since they remove the pages from the
free/clear queue without decrementing sUnreservedFreePages.
* vm_page_set_state(): Changed return type to void. The function cannot really
fail and no-one was checking it anyway.
* vm_page_free(), vm_page_set_state(): Added assertion: The page must not be
free/clear before. This is implied by the policy that no-one is allowed to
access free/clear pages without holding the respective queue's lock, which is
not the case at this point. This found the bug fixed in r34912.
* vm_page_requeue(): Added general assertions. panic() when requeuing of
free/clear pages is requested. Same reason as above.
* vm_clone_area(), B_FULL_LOCK case: Don't map busy pages. The implementation is
still not correct, though.
My usual -j8 Haiku build test runs another 10% faster, now. The total kernel
time drops about 18%. As hoped the new locks have only a fraction of the old
"pages" lock contention. Other locks lead the "most wanted list" now.

mapping is actually present. This would have resulted in page 0 being freed
over and over again, if we hadn't also incorrectly tried to look up the page
by the virtual instead of the physical address. So we were actually freeing
random pages. Fortunately the virtual addresses are kernel addresses, so that
the affected pages lay beyond 2 GB and probably weren't used at this point
yet.

Since the former is no longer guarded by any lock, there's a race condition
with vm_page_unreserve_pages() which would cause us to wait longer than
necessary.

sHeapBase will probably not point to memory in the heap area. Use
sFreeHeapBase instead.
* When reserving the heap area range fails, set sHeapBase to NULL, so we'll
later know about the fact.
* hoardSbrk(): When resizing the area fails, we'll now try to allocate a new
one, if the former failure was not due to an "out of memory" situation.
E.g. if the heap range reservation failed or, if we just have exhausted the
range, another area could be in the way. Also when mmap()ing over
malloc()ed, the heap area count be split in two with the first part
retaining the old area ID, thus preventing resizing as well. Fixed#5168.

sUnreservedFreePages which tracks the difference between free/clear and
reserved pages. Access to it uses atomic operations which allows the three
page (un)reservation to avoid locking in most cases, thus reducing contention
of the "pages" lock.
In the -j8 Haiku image build that decreases the contention of the "pages"
lock to about one third of the previous value. As a positive side effect the
VMCache lock contention drops about the same factor. The total build speedup
is about 20%, the total kernel time drops about 20%.

playing with the unused list manually. This also clears the vnode's unused
flag, which wasn't done before and would thus cause corruption of the
unused list a bit later.
* fs_unmount():
- Fixed an iteration bug I introduced previously. The iterator would be
advanced twice per iteration, leading to NULL pointer dereferencing
when the vnode count was odd and skipping the checks for every other
vnode.
- All vnodes are going to be freed, so vnode_to_be_freed() has to invoked
for every one of them. The code wasn't adjusted correctly when
introducing the hot vnodes handling.
* Adjusted/improved some comments.

used for it that is.
* The main cause for the heavy contention of the unused vnodes mutex was that
relatively few vnodes are actually used for a longer time. Mainly those are
the volume roots, mmap()ed files, and the files opened by programs. A good
deal of nodes -- particularly directories -- are just referenced for a very
short time, e.g. to resolve a path to a contained entry. This caused those
nodes to be added to and removed from the unused vnodes list very
frequently, thus resulting in a high contention of the mutex guarding it.
To address the problem I've introduced an approximation of a set of "hot"
vnodes, i.e. vnodes that have recently been marked unused. They are stored
in an array that by means of an r/w locker and atomic operations can most
of the time be accessed concurrently. Whenever it gets full, it is flushed
to the actual unused vnodes list.
* dec_vnode_ref_count(): No longer check the unused vnode count every time.
The called new vnode_unused() does only from time to time and returns when
the caller is expected to free some of the unused vnodes. As a side effect
this also fixes a bug I previously introduced: The unused vnode to be freed
was marked busy without being locked first.
The -j8 Haiku image test build shows that the changes reduce the contention
of the unused vnode list mutex to virtually zero without introducing any
significant contention of the new r/w lock. The VMCache lock contention also
seems to be decreased somewhat, which is probably not that surprising
considering that the page writer acquires/releases vnode references with the
cache lock held. The "pages" lock takes over even more contention, now
causing more than 100000 waits per second.
The total build time reduction is about 4.5%. Kernel time drops more than
10%.

its own header/source files.
* Changed vnode's bit fields to a single, atomically changeable int32 using
flags instead. Added respective accessor methods.
* Added a per-vnode mutex-like lock, which uses 2 bits of the structure and
32 global "buckets" which are used for waiter lists for the vnode locks.
* Reorganized the VFS locking a bit:
Renamed sVnodeMutex to sVnodeLock and made it an r/w lock. In most situations
it is now only read-locked to reduce its contention. The per-vnode locks guard
the fields of the vnode structure and the newly introduced sUnusedVnodesLock
has taken over the job to guard the unused vnodes list.
The main intent of the changes was to reduce the contention of the sVnodeMutex,
which was partially successful. In my standard -j8 Haiku image build test the
new sUnusedVnodesLock took over about a fourth of the former sVnodeMutex
contention, but the sVnodeLock and the vnode locks have virtually no contention
to speak of, now. A lot of contention migrated to the unrelated "pages" mutex
(another bottleneck). The overall build time dropped about 10 %.

returned a value != B_OK only in case of user error and no-one checked them
anyway.
* Optimized rw_lock_read_[un]lock(). They are inline now and as long as
there's no contending write locker, they will only perform an atomic_add().
* Changed the semantics of nested locking after acquiring a write lock: Read
and write locks are counted separately, so read locks no longer implicitly
become write locks. This does e.g. make degrading a write lock to a read
lock by way of read_lock + write_unlock (as used in the VM) actually work.
These changes speed up the -j8 Haiku image build on my machine by a few
percent, but more interestingly they reduce the total kernel time by 25 %.

* Added VMCache::MovePage() and MoveAllPages() to move pages between caches.
* VMAnonymousCache:
- _MergeSwapPages(): Avoid doing anything, if neither cache has swapped out
pages.
- _MergeSwapPages() does now also remove source cache pages that are
shadowed by consumer swap pages. This allows us to call _MergeSwapPages()
before _MergePagesSmallerSource(), save the swap page shadowing check
there and get rid of the vm_page::merge_swap flag. This is an
optimization based on the assumption that usually none or only few pages
are swapped out, so we save a lot of checks.
- Implemented _MergePagesSmallerConsumer() as an alternative to
_MergePagesSmallerSource(). The former is used when the source cache has
more pages than the consumer cache. It iterates over the consumer cache's
pages, moves them to the source and finally moves all pages back to the
consumer. The final move is relatively cheap (though unfortunately we
still have to update all pages' vm_page::cache field), so that overall we
save iterations of the main loop with the more expensive checks.
The optimizations particularly improve the common fork()+exec*() situations.
fork() uses CoW, which is implemented by putting two new empty caches between
the to be copied area and its cache. exec*() destroys one copy of the area,
its cache and thus causes merging of the other new cache with the old cache.
Since this usually happens in a very short time, the old cache does still
contain many pages and the new cache only few. Previously the many pages were
all checked and moved individually. Now we do that for the few pages instead.
A very extreme example of this situation is the Haiku image build. jam has a
huge heap (> 200 MB) and it fork()s+exec*()s for every action to be executed.
Since during the cache merging the cache is locked, any write access to a
heap page causes jam to block until the cache merging is done. Formerly that
took so long that it killed a lot of parallelism in multi-job builds. That
could be observed particularly well when lots of small actions where executed
(like the Link, XRes, Mimeset, SetType, SetVersion combos when building
executables/libraries/add-ons). Those look dramatically better now.
The overall speed improvement for a -j8 image build on my machine is only
about 15%, though.

another. The code originates from vm_copy_on_write_area(). We now generate
the VM cache tracing entries, though.
* count_writable_areas() -> VMCache::CountWritableAreas()
* Added debugger command "cache_stack" which is enabled when VM cache tracing
is enabled. It prints the source caches of a given cache or area at the
time of a specified tracing entry.

- Replaced the "userOnly" parameter by a "flags" parameter, that allows to
specify kernel and userland stack traces individually.
- x86, m68k: Don't always skip the first frame as that prevents the caller
from being able to record its own address.
* capture_tracing_stack_trace(): Replaced the "userOnly" parameter by
"kernelOnly", since one is probably always interested in the kernel stack
trace, but might not want the userland stack trace.
* Added stack trace support for VM cache kernel tracing.

* Lock the notification service and check HasListeners(), so we don't prepare
an event message needlessly.
* The on-stack buffer for the event message was too small for I/O operation
related events. Now a larger buffer belonging to the roster object is used.
git-svn-id: file:///srv/svn/repos/haiku/haiku/trunk@34737 a95241bf-73f2-0310-859d-f6bbb57e9c96

Fixes#5152.
* _get_port_message_info_etc(): Check whether the port still exists and is not
closed and empty in the loop. Though actually it shouldn't be necessary
(same in the other functions), since Wait() would return an error, if the
port was closed/deleted. Well, paranoia... :-)

* IOScheduler now stores its name and gets a unique ID.
* Added IOSchedulerRoster singleton which registers all IOSchedulers. It also
provides a notification service. We generate interesting events for
IOSchedulers, IORequests, and IOOperations.

* Don't increment read_count after waiting failed. That should have been the
cause of #5119.

as soon as a second thread got into the game: if a thread was notified that
a message is ready, another thread could call read_port() and steal it before
the previous thread could claim it. The "Extensions" menu still doesn't seem
to work, but I would guess that is unrelated.
* The threads of the test app never exited, as read_port() returns the number
of bytes it read, not just a status.

- enqueue_in_run_queue() no longer returns whether rescheduling is supposed
to happen. Instead is sets cpu_ent::invoke_scheduler on the current CPU.
- reschedule() does now handle cpu_ent::invoke_scheduler_if_idle(). No need
to let all callers do that.
* thread_unblock[_locked]() no longer return whether rescheduling is supposed
to happen.
* Got rid of the B_INVOKE_SCHEDULER handling. The interrupt hooks really
can't know, when it makes sense to reschedule or not.
* Introduced scheduler_reschedule_if_necessary[_locked]() functions for
checking+invoking the scheduler.
* Some semaphore functions (e.g. delete_sem()) invoke the scheduler now, if
they wake up anything with greater priority.
I've also tried to add scheduler invocations in the condition variable and
mutex/rw_lock code, but that actually has a negative impact on performance,
probably because it causes too much ping-ponging between threads when
multiple locking primitives are involved.

IORequest::Wait(). Wait() immediately returned when IsFinished() returned
true, but this is the case as soon as the last IOOperation has finished. The
I/O scheduler is not done with the request at this point, though, since it
will still be sitting in at least one of three doubly linked lists. Since the
usual procedure to issue synchronous I/O requests is to create an IORequest
on the stack, pass it to the I/O scheduler, and Wait() on it, Wait()
returning early might cause the IORequest object to be destroyed while it is
still in use, leading to invalid memory access in the I/O scheduler,
corruption of its list structures, as well as later corruption of the issuing
thread's stack.
Related tickets:
* #4431: The request issuing thread returned and already deleted the area the
request was writing to before NotifyFinished() was called.
* #3048, #4883: Caused by the on stack IORequest being overwritten with other
data while being handled by the I/O scheduler thread.
* #4517: Hard to say, but I've seen a such a problem too, after a thread
scheduling related change. An explanation would be a list structure
corruption in the I/O scheduler causing an infinite loop with disabled
interrupts.
* #2845, #3428, #3429: The block notifier/writer is I/O heavy and as such
quite likely to run into the stack corruption issue.

* Moved the CPU selection conde into a separate function.
* Re-added the support for disabling CPUs, which I accidentally removed.
* Got rid of idle CPU tracking. We don't need it anymore -- we iterate
through all CPUs and check the priority of the running thread.
* Added a kind of round-robin component to the CPU selection loop, so that
we pick CPUs more evenly. And indeed, the ProcessController display is
less skewed, now. There doesn't seem to be a measurable performance gain,
though.

* simple_smp scheduler: Rewrote the interesting part of
enqueue_in_run_queue(). It always selects a target CPU for the inserted
thread, now. If no CPU is idle, the CPU running the thread with the lowest
priority is chosen. If the thread running on the target CPU has a lower
priority than the inserted one, it will be asked to reschedule. If that's
the current CPU, we'll return the correct value (wasn't done before at
all).
These changes help reducing latencies. On my machine in an idle system
playing music DebugAnalyzer shows maximum latencies of about 1 us. I still
find that a bit much, but it's several orders of magnitude better than
before. The -j8 Haiku image build time dropped about 10%.
git-svn-id: file:///srv/svn/repos/haiku/haiku/trunk@34635 a95241bf-73f2-0310-859d-f6bbb57e9c96
implemented by means of an additional member in cpu_ent.
* Removed thread::keep_scheduled and the related functions. The feature
wasn't used yet and wouldn't have worked as implemented anyway.
* Resurrected an older, SMP aware version of our simple scheduler and made it
the default instead of the affine scheduler. The latter is in no state to
be used yet. It causes enormous latencies (I've seen up to 0.1s) even when
six or seven CPUs were idle at the same time, totally killing parallelism.
That's also the reason why a -j8 build was slower than a -j2. This is no
longer the case. On my machine the -j2 build takes about 10% less time now
and the -j8 build saves another 20%. The latter is not particularly
impressive (compared with Linux), but that seems to be due to lock
contention.

timer hook and relies on scheduler_reschedule() to be called. Will make this
even more reliable in the next commit.

waits for certain events on a given page, NotifyPageEvents() wakes up
waiting threads respectively.
* Used the new feature instead of condition variables for waiting on busy
pages. We save publishing and unpublishing of a condition variable whenever
a page is marked busy. There's only something to do, if there's at least
one thread waiting in the list of the respective cache. The general
assumption is that this is only rarely the case and even if it happens,
there should be only very few threads.
* Added an apparently missing notification in cache_io(). At least I didn't
see the reason for it not being there.

to clarify that they never enlarge the area.
* Reimplemented VMKernelAddressSpace. It is somewhat inspired by Bonwick's
vmem resource allocator (though we have different requirements):
- We consider the complete address space to be divided into contiguous
ranges of type free, reserved, or area, each range being represented by
a VMKernelAddressRange object.
- The range objects are managed in an AVL tree and a doubly linked list
(the latter only for faster iteration) sorted by address. This provides
O(log(n)) lookup, insertion and removal.
- For each power of two size we maintain a list of free ranges of at least
that size. Thus for the most common case of B_ANY*_ADDRESS area
allocation, we find a free range in constant time (the rest of the
processing being O(log(n))) with a rather good fit. This should also
help avoiding address space fragmentation.
While the new implementation should be faster, particularly with an
increasing number of areas, I couldn't measure any difference in the -j2
haiku build. From a cursory test the -j8 build hasn't tangibly benefitted
either.

- Renamed to AVLTreeBase and moved it into its own header/source file.
- Renamed FindClose() to FindClosest().
- Added CheckTree() method for debugging purposes. It checks the validity
of the tree.
* Added a templatized class AVLTree which doesn't offer a map-like interface
like AVLTreeMap, but rather one similar to BOpenHashMap and SplayTree. It
is more convenient to use, if one wants to store objects that already
contain the key.

* Made VMArea::Set{Base,Size}() private and made VMAddressSpace a friend.
In vm.cpp the new VMAddressSpace::ResizeArea{Head,Tail}() are used
instead.
Finally all address space changes happen in VMAddressSpace only. *phew*
Now it's ready to be thoroughly butchered. :-)

simplify migration of the area management, but as a side effect, it also
makes area deletion O(1) (instead of O(n), n == number of areas in the
address space).
* Moved more area management functionality from vm.cpp to VMAddressSpace and
VMArea structure creation to VMArea. Made the list and list link members
itself private.
* VMAddressSpace tracks its amount of free space, now. This also replaces
the previous mechanism to do that only for the kernel address space. It
was broken anyway, since delete_area() subtracted the area size instead of
adding it.
* vm_free_unused_boot_loader_range():
- lastEnd could be set to a value < start, which could cause memory
outside of the given range to be unmapped. Haven't checked whether this
could happen in practice -- if so, it would be seriously unhealthy.
- The range between the end of the last area in the range and the end of
the range would never be freed.
- Fixed potential integer overflows when computing addresses.

CreateAsmStructOffsetsHeader mechanism to generate a header with macros

checking the physical frame buffer location.

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.

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.

bug #4957.

"etc" are put there now, as well.

returned by open() aren't suitable for directory iteration and because checks
have to be performed (like whether this is a directory at all and whether the
user has read permission).
* Added __create_dir_struct() for the attribute, index, and query open
functions to use instead.

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.

vm_page_allocate_page_run() is very expensive.

more care when accepting patches!

of that team, too.

pthread_create 2-1 interface conformance test to pass.
* Also fixed return values to be in the POSIX error range in case we ever switch
them by default.

ID.
* 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.
git-svn-id: file:///srv/svn/repos/haiku/haiku/trunk@33743 a95241bf-73f2-0310-859d-f6bbb57e9c96
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.
git-svn-id: file:///srv/svn/repos/haiku/haiku/trunk@33735 a95241bf-73f2-0310-859d-f6bbb57e9c96
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.
git-svn-id: file:///srv/svn/repos/haiku/haiku/trunk@33724 a95241bf-73f2-0310-859d-f6bbb57e9c96
* Allow an allocator to be created on the heap to allow for non-locked
allocators to be created.
* Some cleanup.

read out in the ConditionVariableEntry::WaitStatus(). That way you can notify
with a specific status that can be read out on the other end.

to avoid recurring problems during migration of subversion checkouts
(restored binary files that were garbled by subversions during checkout)
* added appropriate svn:mime-type property for problematic (binary) files
* removed a single (mistyped) svn:mimetype property
* dropped svn:eol-style property for cleanup (they all contained 'native')

accelerant. Thanks to Michael for the hint!

high contention of the read lock (I experimented with the VM page mapping
lock)), it actually hurt the compile performance pretty obviously.

makes the reader case a lot less expensive, and should relieve the thread
spinlock contention a bit.
git-svn-id: file:///srv/svn/repos/haiku/haiku/trunk@33643 a95241bf-73f2-0310-859d-f6bbb57e9c96
* Check for overflows in memory allocation. If someone happened to (erroneously)
try to allocate a negative amount of memory we could overflow and crash
because of the sizes getting messed up.
* Review and update the alignment logic which was a bit broken for the huge
allocation case (reaching the area threshold). Also assert the results so
next time this will be easier to spot.

idea to always send SIGKILL to the main thread, though. I'm not really getting
more insight by reading the POSIX specs.
* Anyway, in the mean time, this fixes bug #4784.

broke their placement at the end of the reserved area, which was the main
reason #4778 happened so often (it would have been more hidden else).

space was becoming tight. This actually fixes#4778.
* Fixed overflow problem in find_reserved_area().
* Cleaned up the test app, added license.
git-svn-id: file:///srv/svn/repos/haiku/haiku/trunk@33597 a95241bf-73f2-0310-859d-f6bbb57e9c96
the RESERVED_AVOID_BASE flag of those, and introduced a way to fill them
from the start. This caused #4778.
* Turned IS_VALID_SPOT() macro into an inline function.
* Removed already resolved TODO comment.

* The services are now using recursive_locks, and rw_locks instead.
git-svn-id: file:///srv/svn/repos/haiku/haiku/trunk@33548 a95241bf-73f2-0310-859d-f6bbb57e9c96
these interfaces are now available.
* Don't be quite so paranoid by default, the checks that are on by default
should be enough to detect most memory corruptions.
This makes the debug heap way more usable, so much that you can even use it as
your normal everyday heap without noticing much performance impact (it has quite
a bit of additional memory overhead though).

libroot. The mutex is a simple benaphore, the rw_lock is pretty much the same
as the one from libkernelland_emu but uses a mutex per lock instead of emulating
a global thread lock. Also added MutexLocking and RWLock{Read|Write}Locking and
AutoLockers based on them. It's cased with __cplusplus so the locks are also
usable from C. Everything's currently exposed in shared/private/locks.h but I
think we should make these locking primitves public.
