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.

mjw for the hint. Fixes bug #1516.
* Changed _{kern,user}_create_symlink() to no longer check the supplied
link string. BeOS seems to do that, but this is not standard
conforming. The previous implementation even used the path processed
by check_path(), which would potentially have appended a ".".
* Some style cleanup.

now.

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.
* intel partitioning system:
- 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.

does no longer give partitioning systems precedence over file systems.
The one with the greater identification priority wins. ATM, if a file
system wins, we still mount the first file system that recognized the
partition at all, though.

indirectly, and since InsertText() is called inside
BTextView::HandleInputMethodChanged(), this method would see fInline
slip away from under its feet.. Now we call the BTextView version
explicitly. Fixes bug #1022, although I'm not sure if this is completely
correct.

* bfs_initialize():
- Report job progress.
- Rescan the partition after it has been initialized, so that all
partition_data fields are properly initialized.

the unmapped page.
* This is needed by everyone who calls this to make sure modifications to a
page aren't ignored. Namely, the page scanner and the page thief were
affected.
* Cleaned up locking the page's cache a bit in page_thief(); there is now
a helper class that takes care of everything.

* the page writer don't allow to block, while all other writers do. This fixes
bug #1509. The reason the page writer needs this is because it marks several
pages from different caches as busy.
* Fixed a warning about ASSERT being defined already in BFS, since
util/DoublyLinkedList.h now includes debug.h.

therefore not be invoked when the thread spinlock is held.

* RequestOwner was removing the wrong request from the second queue,
which could cause the list structure to become invalid and result in
bug #1526.
* In the writer loops we do now call tty_notify_if_available() when
we're potentially going to wait and had written something before, so
that a waiting reader will be woken up also when we write more bytes
than fit into the ring buffer.

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.

error if the provided bitmap was B_CMAP8, now BIconUtils will convert the
icon to B_CMAP8
-> this behaviour is a little inconsistent compared to what happens when
reading icons from attributes, there, the CMAP8 icon is prefered in case
such a bitmap is passed, even if a vector icon exists. I am not really
sure which behaviour is better. For a consistent UI, maybe it is better
to prefer the vector icon always. I've added a note to BAppFileInfo.

* Changed ResAttr rule to allow not deleting the file before writing the
attributes.
* Added application signatures for the runtime_loader and zbeos, just so that
they may have an icon, too (hint, hint) :-)
* As a side effect, this also let's FileTypes handle these two as apps (even
though they aren't), so that I can close bug #606.

of locking before processing the message (single/all window lock)
-> in most message cases, I could comment out the unlocking/locking which
switched to the different lock, because the required lock is now already held,
this removes some race conditions which were commented in the code already
* EventDispatcher::SetDragMessage() didn't lock the object, this would have
been bad if multiple windows tried to set a drag bitmap at once
* the Desktop object keeps track of mouse position and pressed buttons, so
that it doesn't need to lock the EventDispatcher for sending fake mouse
moves to windows on show/hide of windows (solves some cases of possible
dead locks with the new locking strategy)
* the keyboard EventFilter switches the current workspace asynchrnously from
the Desktop thread (another source of possible deadlocks)
* the "reader is trying to become writer" check in MultiLocker is only used
in DEBUG mode now
As a summary: It would be nice if ServerWindow used a readlock for all messages
it processes itself, and forwards all messages for which it needs a write lock
to the Desktop thread. All cases where either the Desktop or the ServerWindow
mess with the EventDispatcher are possible sources of deadlocks. This is solved
right now by making sure that the lock is released before using the
EventDispatcher.
I have not observed any deadlocks while switching workspaces and launching
many apps anymore, neither crashes. But I have not tested extensively except
for in the test environment. That being said, I could reproduce the problems
on first try before in Haiku.
