Basic System Event Framework (SEF) with ping and live update. SYSLIB CHANGES: - SEF must be used by every system process and is thereby part of the system library. - The framework provides a receive() interface (sef_receive) for system processes to automatically catch known system even messages and process them. - SEF provides a default behavior for each type of system event, but allows system processes to register callbacks to override the default behavior. - Custom (local to the process) or predefined (provided by SEF) callback implementations can be registered to SEF. - SEF currently includes support for 2 types of system events: 1. SEF Ping. The event occurs every time RS sends a ping to figure out whether a system process is still alive. The default callback implementation provided by SEF is to notify RS back to let it know the process is alive and kicking. 2. SEF Live update. The event occurs every time RS sends a prepare to update message to let a system process know an update is available and to prepare for it. The live update support is very basic for now. SEF only deals with verifying if the prepare state can be supported by the process, dumping the state for debugging purposes, and providing an event-driven programming model to the process to react to state changes check-in when ready to update. - SEF should be extended in the future to integrate support for more types of system events. Ideally, all the cross-cutting concerns should be integrated into SEF to avoid duplicating code and ease extensibility. Examples include: * PM notify messages primarily used at shutdown. * SYSTEM notify messages primarily used for signals. * CLOCK notify messages used for system alarms. * Debug messages. IS could still be in charge of fkey handling but would forward the debug message to the target process (e.g. PM, if the user requested debug information about PM). SEF would then catch the message and do nothing unless the process has registered an appropriate callback to deal with the event. This simplifies the programming model to print debug information, avoids duplicating code, and reduces the effort to print debug information. SYSTEM PROCESSES CHANGES: - Every system process registers SEF callbacks it needs to override the default system behavior and calls sef_startup() right after being started. - sef_startup() does almost nothing now, but will be extended in the future to support callbacks of its own to let RS control and synchronize with every system process at initialization time. - Every system process calls sef_receive() now rather than receive() directly, to let SEF handle predefined system events. RS CHANGES: - RS supports a basic single-component live update protocol now, as follows: * When an update command is issued (via "service update *"), RS notifies the target system process to prepare for a specific update state. * If the process doesn't respond back in time, the update is aborted. * When the process responds back, RS kills it and marks it for refreshing. * The process is then automatically restarted as for a buggy process and can start running again. * Live update is currently prototyped as a controlled failure.

libsys: various updates - move system calls for use by services from libminlib into libsys; - move srv_fork(2) and srv_kill(2) from RS and into libsys; - replace getprocnr(2) with sef_self(3); - rename previous getnprocnr(2) to getprocnr(2); - clean up getepinfo(2); - change all libsys calls that used _syscall to use _taskcall, so as to avoid going through errno to pass errors; this is already how most calls work anyway, and many of the calls previously using _syscall were already assumed to return the actual error; - initialize request messages to zero, for future compatibility (note that this does not include PCI calls, which are in need of a much bigger overhaul, nor kernel calls); - clean up more of dead DS code as a side effect.

Initialization protocol for system services. SYSLIB CHANGES: - SEF framework now supports a new SEF Init request type from RS. 3 different callbacks are available (init_fresh, init_lu, init_restart) to specify initialization code when a service starts fresh, starts after a live update, or restarts. SYSTEM SERVICE CHANGES: - Initialization code for system services is now enclosed in a callback SEF will automatically call at init time. The return code of the callback will tell RS whether the initialization completed successfully. - Each init callback can access information passed by RS to initialize. As of now, each system service has access to the public entries of RS's system process table to gather all the information required to initialize. This design eliminates many existing or potential races at boot time and provides a uniform initialization interface to system services. The same interface will be reused for the upcoming publish/subscribe model to handle dynamic registration / deregistration of system services. VM CHANGES: - Uniform privilege management for all system services. Every service uses the same call mask format. For boot services, VM copies the call mask from init data. For dynamic services, VM still receives the call mask via rs_set_priv call that will be soon replaced by the upcoming publish/subscribe model. RS CHANGES: - The system process table has been reorganized and split into private entries and public entries. Only the latter ones are exposed to system services. - VM call masks are now entirely configured in rs/table.c - RS has now its own slot in the system process table. Only kernel tasks and user processes not included in the boot image are now left out from the system process table. - RS implements the initialization protocol for system services. - For services in the boot image, RS blocks till initialization is complete and panics when failure is reported back. Services are initialized in their order of appearance in the boot image priv table and RS blocks to implements synchronous initialization for every system service having the flag SF_SYNCH_BOOT set. - For services started dynamically, the initialization protocol is implemented as though it were the first ping for the service. In this case, if the system service fails to report back (or reports failure), RS brings the service down rather than trying to restart it.

New RS and new signal handling for system processes. UPDATING INFO: 20100317: /usr/src/etc/system.conf updated to ignore default kernel calls: copy it (or merge it) to /etc/system.conf. The hello driver (/dev/hello) added to the distribution: # cd /usr/src/commands/scripts && make clean install # cd /dev && MAKEDEV hello KERNEL CHANGES: - Generic signal handling support. The kernel no longer assumes PM as a signal manager for every process. The signal manager of a given process can now be specified in its privilege slot. When a signal has to be delivered, the kernel performs the lookup and forwards the signal to the appropriate signal manager. PM is the default signal manager for user processes, RS is the default signal manager for system processes. To enable ptrace()ing for system processes, it is sufficient to change the default signal manager to PM. This will temporarily disable crash recovery, though. - sys_exit() is now split into sys_exit() (i.e. exit() for system processes, which generates a self-termination signal), and sys_clear() (i.e. used by PM to ask the kernel to clear a process slot when a process exits). - Added a new kernel call (i.e. sys_update()) to swap two process slots and implement live update. PM CHANGES: - Posix signal handling is no longer allowed for system processes. System signals are split into two fixed categories: termination and non-termination signals. When a non-termination signaled is processed, PM transforms the signal into an IPC message and delivers the message to the system process. When a termination signal is processed, PM terminates the process. - PM no longer assumes itself as the signal manager for system processes. It now makes sure that every system signal goes through the kernel before being actually processes. The kernel will then dispatch the signal to the appropriate signal manager which may or may not be PM. SYSLIB CHANGES: - Simplified SEF init and LU callbacks. - Added additional predefined SEF callbacks to debug crash recovery and live update. - Fixed a temporary ack in the SEF init protocol. SEF init reply is now completely synchronous. - Added SEF signal event type to provide a uniform interface for system processes to deal with signals. A sef_cb_signal_handler() callback is available for system processes to handle every received signal. A sef_cb_signal_manager() callback is used by signal managers to process system signals on behalf of the kernel. - Fixed a few bugs with memory mapping and DS. VM CHANGES: - Page faults and memory requests coming from the kernel are now implemented using signals. - Added a new VM call to swap two process slots and implement live update. - The call is used by RS at update time and in turn invokes the kernel call sys_update(). RS CHANGES: - RS has been reworked with a better functional decomposition. - Better kernel call masks. com.h now defines the set of very basic kernel calls every system service is allowed to use. This makes system.conf simpler and easier to maintain. In addition, this guarantees a higher level of isolation for system libraries that use one or more kernel calls internally (e.g. printf). - RS is the default signal manager for system processes. By default, RS intercepts every signal delivered to every system process. This makes crash recovery possible before bringing PM and friends in the loop. - RS now supports fast rollback when something goes wrong while initializing the new version during a live update. - Live update is now implemented by keeping the two versions side-by-side and swapping the process slots when the old version is ready to update. - Crash recovery is now implemented by keeping the two versions side-by-side and cleaning up the old version only when the recovery process is complete. DS CHANGES: - Fixed a bug when the process doing ds_publish() or ds_delete() is not known by DS. - Fixed the completely broken support for strings. String publishing is now implemented in the system library and simply wraps publishing of memory ranges. Ideally, we should adopt a similar approach for other data types as well. - Test suite fixed. DRIVER CHANGES: - The hello driver has been added to the Minix distribution to demonstrate basic live update and crash recovery functionalities. - Other drivers have been adapted to conform the new SEF interface.

Basic System Event Framework (SEF) with ping and live update. SYSLIB CHANGES: - SEF must be used by every system process and is thereby part of the system library. - The framework provides a receive() interface (sef_receive) for system processes to automatically catch known system even messages and process them. - SEF provides a default behavior for each type of system event, but allows system processes to register callbacks to override the default behavior. - Custom (local to the process) or predefined (provided by SEF) callback implementations can be registered to SEF. - SEF currently includes support for 2 types of system events: 1. SEF Ping. The event occurs every time RS sends a ping to figure out whether a system process is still alive. The default callback implementation provided by SEF is to notify RS back to let it know the process is alive and kicking. 2. SEF Live update. The event occurs every time RS sends a prepare to update message to let a system process know an update is available and to prepare for it. The live update support is very basic for now. SEF only deals with verifying if the prepare state can be supported by the process, dumping the state for debugging purposes, and providing an event-driven programming model to the process to react to state changes check-in when ready to update. - SEF should be extended in the future to integrate support for more types of system events. Ideally, all the cross-cutting concerns should be integrated into SEF to avoid duplicating code and ease extensibility. Examples include: * PM notify messages primarily used at shutdown. * SYSTEM notify messages primarily used for signals. * CLOCK notify messages used for system alarms. * Debug messages. IS could still be in charge of fkey handling but would forward the debug message to the target process (e.g. PM, if the user requested debug information about PM). SEF would then catch the message and do nothing unless the process has registered an appropriate callback to deal with the event. This simplifies the programming model to print debug information, avoids duplicating code, and reduces the effort to print debug information. SYSTEM PROCESSES CHANGES: - Every system process registers SEF callbacks it needs to override the default system behavior and calls sef_startup() right after being started. - sef_startup() does almost nothing now, but will be extended in the future to support callbacks of its own to let RS control and synchronize with every system process at initialization time. - Every system process calls sef_receive() now rather than receive() directly, to let SEF handle predefined system events. RS CHANGES: - RS supports a basic single-component live update protocol now, as follows: * When an update command is issued (via "service update *"), RS notifies the target system process to prepare for a specific update state. * If the process doesn't respond back in time, the update is aborted. * When the process responds back, RS kills it and marks it for refreshing. * The process is then automatically restarted as for a buggy process and can start running again. * Live update is currently prototyped as a controlled failure.

Basic System Event Framework (SEF) with ping and live update. SYSLIB CHANGES: - SEF must be used by every system process and is thereby part of the system library. - The framework provides a receive() interface (sef_receive) for system processes to automatically catch known system even messages and process them. - SEF provides a default behavior for each type of system event, but allows system processes to register callbacks to override the default behavior. - Custom (local to the process) or predefined (provided by SEF) callback implementations can be registered to SEF. - SEF currently includes support for 2 types of system events: 1. SEF Ping. The event occurs every time RS sends a ping to figure out whether a system process is still alive. The default callback implementation provided by SEF is to notify RS back to let it know the process is alive and kicking. 2. SEF Live update. The event occurs every time RS sends a prepare to update message to let a system process know an update is available and to prepare for it. The live update support is very basic for now. SEF only deals with verifying if the prepare state can be supported by the process, dumping the state for debugging purposes, and providing an event-driven programming model to the process to react to state changes check-in when ready to update. - SEF should be extended in the future to integrate support for more types of system events. Ideally, all the cross-cutting concerns should be integrated into SEF to avoid duplicating code and ease extensibility. Examples include: * PM notify messages primarily used at shutdown. * SYSTEM notify messages primarily used for signals. * CLOCK notify messages used for system alarms. * Debug messages.

New RS and new signal handling for system processes. UPDATING INFO: 20100317: /usr/src/etc/system.conf updated to ignore default kernel calls: copy it (or merge it) to /etc/system.conf. The hello driver (/dev/hello) added to the distribution: # cd /usr/src/commands/scripts && make clean install # cd /dev && MAKEDEV hello KERNEL CHANGES: - Generic signal handling support. The kernel no longer assumes PM as a signal manager for every process. The signal manager of a given process can now be specified in its privilege slot. When a signal has to be delivered, the kernel performs the lookup and forwards the signal to the appropriate signal manager. PM is the default signal manager for user processes, RS is the default signal manager for system processes. To enable ptrace()ing for system processes, it is sufficient to change the default signal manager to PM. This will temporarily disable crash recovery, though. - sys_exit() is now split into sys_exit() (i.e. exit() for system processes, which generates a self-termination signal), and sys_clear() (i.e. used by PM to ask the kernel to clear a process slot when a process exits). - Added a new kernel call (i.e. sys_update()) to swap two process slots and implement live update. PM CHANGES: - Posix signal handling is no longer allowed for system processes. System signals are split into two fixed categories: termination and non-termination signals. When a non-termination signaled is processed, PM transforms the signal into an IPC message and delivers the message to the system process. When a termination signal is processed, PM terminates the process. - PM no longer assumes itself as the signal manager for system processes. It now makes sure that every system signal goes through the kernel before being actually processes. The kernel will then dispatch the signal to the appropriate signal manager which may or may not be PM. SYSLIB CHANGES: - Simplified SEF init and LU callbacks. - Added additional predefined SEF callbacks to debug crash recovery and live update. - Fixed a temporary ack in the SEF init protocol. SEF init reply is now completely synchronous. - Added SEF signal event type to provide a uniform interface for system processes to deal with signals. A sef_cb_signal_handler() callback is available for system processes to handle every received signal. A sef_cb_signal_manager() callback is used by signal managers to process system signals on behalf of the kernel. - Fixed a few bugs with memory mapping and DS. VM CHANGES: - Page faults and memory requests coming from the kernel are now implemented using signals. - Added a new VM call to swap two process slots and implement live update. - The call is used by RS at update time and in turn invokes the kernel call sys_update(). RS CHANGES: - RS has been reworked with a better functional decomposition. - Better kernel call masks. com.h now defines the set of very basic kernel calls every system service is allowed to use. This makes system.conf simpler and easier to maintain. In addition, this guarantees a higher level of isolation for system libraries that use one or more kernel calls internally (e.g. printf). - RS is the default signal manager for system processes. By default, RS intercepts every signal delivered to every system process. This makes crash recovery possible before bringing PM and friends in the loop. - RS now supports fast rollback when something goes wrong while initializing the new version during a live update. - Live update is now implemented by keeping the two versions side-by-side and swapping the process slots when the old version is ready to update. - Crash recovery is now implemented by keeping the two versions side-by-side and cleaning up the old version only when the recovery process is complete. DS CHANGES: - Fixed a bug when the process doing ds_publish() or ds_delete() is not known by DS. - Fixed the completely broken support for strings. String publishing is now implemented in the system library and simply wraps publishing of memory ranges. Ideally, we should adopt a similar approach for other data types as well. - Test suite fixed. DRIVER CHANGES: - The hello driver has been added to the Minix distribution to demonstrate basic live update and crash recovery functionalities. - Other drivers have been adapted to conform the new SEF interface.

IPC status code for receive(). IPC changes: - receive() is changed to take an additional parameter, which is a pointer to a status code. - The status code is filled in by the kernel to provide additional information to the caller. For now, the kernel only fills in the IPC call used by the sender. Syslib changes: - sef_receive() has been split into sef_receive() (with the original semantics) and sef_receive_status() which exposes the status code to userland. - Ideally, every sys process should gradually switch to sef_receive_status() and use is_ipc_notify() as a dependable way to check for notify. - SEF has been modified to use is_ipc_notify() and demonstrate how to use the new status code.

Initialization protocol for system services. SYSLIB CHANGES: - SEF framework now supports a new SEF Init request type from RS. 3 different callbacks are available (init_fresh, init_lu, init_restart) to specify initialization code when a service starts fresh, starts after a live update, or restarts. SYSTEM SERVICE CHANGES: - Initialization code for system services is now enclosed in a callback SEF will automatically call at init time. The return code of the callback will tell RS whether the initialization completed successfully. - Each init callback can access information passed by RS to initialize. As of now, each system service has access to the public entries of RS's system process table to gather all the information required to initialize. This design eliminates many existing or potential races at boot time and provides a uniform initialization interface to system services. The same interface will be reused for the upcoming publish/subscribe model to handle dynamic registration / deregistration of system services. VM CHANGES: - Uniform privilege management for all system services. Every service uses the same call mask format. For boot services, VM copies the call mask from init data. For dynamic services, VM still receives the call mask via rs_set_priv call that will be soon replaced by the upcoming publish/subscribe model. RS CHANGES: - The system process table has been reorganized and split into private entries and public entries. Only the latter ones are exposed to system services. - VM call masks are now entirely configured in rs/table.c - RS has now its own slot in the system process table. Only kernel tasks and user processes not included in the boot image are now left out from the system process table. - RS implements the initialization protocol for system services. - For services in the boot image, RS blocks till initialization is complete and panics when failure is reported back. Services are initialized in their order of appearance in the boot image priv table and RS blocks to implements synchronous initialization for every system service having the flag SF_SYNCH_BOOT set. - For services started dynamically, the initialization protocol is implemented as though it were the first ping for the service. In this case, if the system service fails to report back (or reports failure), RS brings the service down rather than trying to restart it.

Initialization protocol for system services. SYSLIB CHANGES: - SEF framework now supports a new SEF Init request type from RS. 3 different callbacks are available (init_fresh, init_lu, init_restart) to specify initialization code when a service starts fresh, starts after a live update, or restarts. SYSTEM SERVICE CHANGES: - Initialization code for system services is now enclosed in a callback SEF will automatically call at init time. The return code of the callback will tell RS whether the initialization completed successfully. - Each init callback can access information passed by RS to initialize. As of now, each system service has access to the public entries of RS's system process table to gather all the information required to initialize. This design eliminates many existing or potential races at boot time and provides a uniform initialization interface to system services. The same interface will be reused for the upcoming publish/subscribe model to handle dynamic registration / deregistration of system services.

No more intel/minix segments. This commit removes all traces of Minix segments (the text/data/stack memory map abstraction in the kernel) and significance of Intel segments (hardware segments like CS, DS that add offsets to all addressing before page table translation). This ultimately simplifies the memory layout and addressing and makes the same layout possible on non-Intel architectures. There are only two types of addresses in the world now: virtual and physical; even the kernel and processes have the same virtual address space. Kernel and user processes can be distinguished at a glance as processes won't use 0xF0000000 and above. No static pre-allocated memory sizes exist any more. Changes to booting: . The pre_init.c leaves the kernel and modules exactly as they were left by the bootloader in physical memory . The kernel starts running using physical addressing, loaded at a fixed location given in its linker script by the bootloader. All code and data in this phase are linked to this fixed low location. . It makes a bootstrap pagetable to map itself to a fixed high location (also in linker script) and jumps to the high address. All code and data then use this high addressing. . All code/data symbols linked at the low addresses is prefixed by an objcopy step with __k_unpaged_*, so that that code cannot reference highly-linked symbols (which aren't valid yet) or vice versa (symbols that aren't valid any more). . The two addressing modes are separated in the linker script by collecting the unpaged_*.o objects and linking them with low addresses, and linking the rest high. Some objects are linked twice, once low and once high. . The bootstrap phase passes a lot of information (e.g. free memory list, physical location of the modules, etc.) using the kinfo struct. . After this bootstrap the low-linked part is freed. . The kernel maps in VM into the bootstrap page table so that VM can begin executing. Its first job is to make page tables for all other boot processes. So VM runs before RS, and RS gets a fully dynamic, VM-managed address space. VM gets its privilege info from RS as usual but that happens after RS starts running. . Both the kernel loading VM and VM organizing boot processes happen using the libexec logic. This removes the last reason for VM to still know much about exec() and vm/exec.c is gone. Further Implementation: . All segments are based at 0 and have a 4 GB limit. . The kernel is mapped in at the top of the virtual address space so as not to constrain the user processes. . Processes do not use segments from the LDT at all; there are no segments in the LDT any more, so no LLDT is needed. . The Minix segments T/D/S are gone and so none of the user-space or in-kernel copy functions use them. The copy functions use a process endpoint of NONE to realize it's a physical address, virtual otherwise. . The umap call only makes sense to translate a virtual address to a physical address now. . Segments-related calls like newmap and alloc_segments are gone. . All segments-related translation in VM is gone (vir2map etc). . Initialization in VM is simpler as no moving around is necessary. . VM and all other boot processes can be linked wherever they wish and will be mapped in at the right location by the kernel and VM respectively. Other changes: . The multiboot code is less special: it does not use mb_print for its diagnostics any more but uses printf() as normal, saving the output into the diagnostics buffer, only printing to the screen using the direct print functions if a panic() occurs. . The multiboot code uses the flexible 'free memory map list' style to receive the list of free memory if available. . The kernel determines the memory layout of the processes to a degree: it tells VM where the kernel starts and ends and where the kernel wants the top of the process to be. VM then uses this entire range, i.e. the stack is right at the top, and mmap()ped bits of memory are placed below that downwards, and the break grows upwards. Other Consequences: . Every process gets its own page table as address spaces can't be separated any more by segments. . As all segments are 0-based, there is no distinction between virtual and linear addresses, nor between userspace and kernel addresses. . Less work is done when context switching, leading to a net performance increase. (8% faster on my machine for 'make servers'.) . The layout and configuration of the GDT makes sysenter and syscall possible.

Basic System Event Framework (SEF) with ping and live update. SYSLIB CHANGES: - SEF must be used by every system process and is thereby part of the system library. - The framework provides a receive() interface (sef_receive) for system processes to automatically catch known system even messages and process them. - SEF provides a default behavior for each type of system event, but allows system processes to register callbacks to override the default behavior. - Custom (local to the process) or predefined (provided by SEF) callback implementations can be registered to SEF. - SEF currently includes support for 2 types of system events: 1. SEF Ping. The event occurs every time RS sends a ping to figure out whether a system process is still alive. The default callback implementation provided by SEF is to notify RS back to let it know the process is alive and kicking. 2. SEF Live update. The event occurs every time RS sends a prepare to update message to let a system process know an update is available and to prepare for it. The live update support is very basic for now. SEF only deals with verifying if the prepare state can be supported by the process, dumping the state for debugging purposes, and providing an event-driven programming model to the process to react to state changes check-in when ready to update. - SEF should be extended in the future to integrate support for more types of system events. Ideally, all the cross-cutting concerns should be integrated into SEF to avoid duplicating code and ease extensibility. Examples include: * PM notify messages primarily used at shutdown. * SYSTEM notify messages primarily used for signals. * CLOCK notify messages used for system alarms. * Debug messages. IS could still be in charge of fkey handling but would forward the debug message to the target process (e.g. PM, if the user requested debug information about PM). SEF would then catch the message and do nothing unless the process has registered an appropriate callback to deal with the event. This simplifies the programming model to print debug information, avoids duplicating code, and reduces the effort to print debug information. SYSTEM PROCESSES CHANGES: - Every system process registers SEF callbacks it needs to override the default system behavior and calls sef_startup() right after being started. - sef_startup() does almost nothing now, but will be extended in the future to support callbacks of its own to let RS control and synchronize with every system process at initialization time. - Every system process calls sef_receive() now rather than receive() directly, to let SEF handle predefined system events. RS CHANGES: - RS supports a basic single-component live update protocol now, as follows: * When an update command is issued (via "service update *"), RS notifies the target system process to prepare for a specific update state. * If the process doesn't respond back in time, the update is aborted. * When the process responds back, RS kills it and marks it for refreshing. * The process is then automatically restarted as for a buggy process and can start running again. * Live update is currently prototyped as a controlled failure.

New RS and new signal handling for system processes. UPDATING INFO: 20100317: /usr/src/etc/system.conf updated to ignore default kernel calls: copy it (or merge it) to /etc/system.conf. The hello driver (/dev/hello) added to the distribution: # cd /usr/src/commands/scripts && make clean install # cd /dev && MAKEDEV hello KERNEL CHANGES: - Generic signal handling support. The kernel no longer assumes PM as a signal manager for every process. The signal manager of a given process can now be specified in its privilege slot. When a signal has to be delivered, the kernel performs the lookup and forwards the signal to the appropriate signal manager. PM is the default signal manager for user processes, RS is the default signal manager for system processes. To enable ptrace()ing for system processes, it is sufficient to change the default signal manager to PM. This will temporarily disable crash recovery, though. - sys_exit() is now split into sys_exit() (i.e. exit() for system processes, which generates a self-termination signal), and sys_clear() (i.e. used by PM to ask the kernel to clear a process slot when a process exits). - Added a new kernel call (i.e. sys_update()) to swap two process slots and implement live update. PM CHANGES: - Posix signal handling is no longer allowed for system processes. System signals are split into two fixed categories: termination and non-termination signals. When a non-termination signaled is processed, PM transforms the signal into an IPC message and delivers the message to the system process. When a termination signal is processed, PM terminates the process. - PM no longer assumes itself as the signal manager for system processes. It now makes sure that every system signal goes through the kernel before being actually processes. The kernel will then dispatch the signal to the appropriate signal manager which may or may not be PM. SYSLIB CHANGES: - Simplified SEF init and LU callbacks. - Added additional predefined SEF callbacks to debug crash recovery and live update. - Fixed a temporary ack in the SEF init protocol. SEF init reply is now completely synchronous. - Added SEF signal event type to provide a uniform interface for system processes to deal with signals. A sef_cb_signal_handler() callback is available for system processes to handle every received signal. A sef_cb_signal_manager() callback is used by signal managers to process system signals on behalf of the kernel. - Fixed a few bugs with memory mapping and DS. VM CHANGES: - Page faults and memory requests coming from the kernel are now implemented using signals. - Added a new VM call to swap two process slots and implement live update. - The call is used by RS at update time and in turn invokes the kernel call sys_update(). RS CHANGES: - RS has been reworked with a better functional decomposition. - Better kernel call masks. com.h now defines the set of very basic kernel calls every system service is allowed to use. This makes system.conf simpler and easier to maintain. In addition, this guarantees a higher level of isolation for system libraries that use one or more kernel calls internally (e.g. printf). - RS is the default signal manager for system processes. By default, RS intercepts every signal delivered to every system process. This makes crash recovery possible before bringing PM and friends in the loop. - RS now supports fast rollback when something goes wrong while initializing the new version during a live update. - Live update is now implemented by keeping the two versions side-by-side and swapping the process slots when the old version is ready to update. - Crash recovery is now implemented by keeping the two versions side-by-side and cleaning up the old version only when the recovery process is complete. DS CHANGES: - Fixed a bug when the process doing ds_publish() or ds_delete() is not known by DS. - Fixed the completely broken support for strings. String publishing is now implemented in the system library and simply wraps publishing of memory ranges. Ideally, we should adopt a similar approach for other data types as well. - Test suite fixed. DRIVER CHANGES: - The hello driver has been added to the Minix distribution to demonstrate basic live update and crash recovery functionalities. - Other drivers have been adapted to conform the new SEF interface.

The default callback implementation provided by SEF is to notify RS back to let it know the process is alive and kicking. 2. SEF Live update. The event occurs every time RS sends a prepare to update message to let a system process know an update is available and to prepare for it. The live update support is very basic for now. SEF only deals with verifying if the prepare state can be supported by the process, dumping the state for debugging purposes, and providing an event-driven programming model to the process to react to state changes check-in when ready to update. - SEF should be extended in the future to integrate support for more types of system events. Ideally, all the cross-cutting concerns should be integrated into SEF to avoid duplicating code and ease extensibility. Examples include: * PM notify messages primarily used at shutdown. * SYSTEM notify messages primarily used for signals. * CLOCK notify messages used for system alarms. * Debug messages. IS could still be in charge of fkey handling but would forward the debug message to the target process (e.g. PM, if the user requested debug information about PM). SEF would then catch the message and do nothing unless the process has registered an appropriate callback to deal with the event. This simplifies the programming model to print debug information, avoids duplicating code, and reduces the effort to print debug information. SYSTEM PROCESSES CHANGES: - Every system process registers SEF callbacks it needs to override the default system behavior and calls sef_startup() right after being started. - sef_startup() does almost nothing now, but will be extended in the future to support callbacks of its own to let RS control and synchronize with every system process at initialization time. - Every system process calls sef_receive() now rather than receive() directly, to let SEF handle predefined system events. RS CHANGES: - RS supports a basic single-component live update protocol now, as follows: * When an update command is issued (via "service update *"), RS notifies the target system process to prepare for a specific update state. * If the process doesn't respond back in time, the update is aborted. * When the process responds back, RS kills it and marks it for refreshing. * The process is then automatically restarted as for a buggy process and can start running again. * Live update is currently prototyped as a controlled failure.

New RS and new signal handling for system processes. UPDATING INFO: 20100317: /usr/src/etc/system.conf updated to ignore default kernel calls: copy it (or merge it) to /etc/system.conf. The hello driver (/dev/hello) added to the distribution: # cd /usr/src/commands/scripts && make clean install # cd /dev && MAKEDEV hello KERNEL CHANGES: - Generic signal handling support. The kernel no longer assumes PM as a signal manager for every process. The signal manager of a given process can now be specified in its privilege slot. When a signal has to be delivered, the kernel performs the lookup and forwards the signal to the appropriate signal manager. PM is the default signal manager for user processes, RS is the default signal manager for system processes. To enable ptrace()ing for system processes, it is sufficient to change the default signal manager to PM. This will temporarily disable crash recovery, though. - sys_exit() is now split into sys_exit() (i.e. exit() for system processes, which generates a self-termination signal), and sys_clear() (i.e. used by PM to ask the kernel to clear a process slot when a process exits). - Added a new kernel call (i.e. sys_update()) to swap two process slots and implement live update. PM CHANGES: - Posix signal handling is no longer allowed for system processes. System signals are split into two fixed categories: termination and non-termination signals. When a non-termination signaled is processed, PM transforms the signal into an IPC message and delivers the message to the system process. When a termination signal is processed, PM terminates the process. - PM no longer assumes itself as the signal manager for system processes. It now makes sure that every system signal goes through the kernel before being actually processes. The kernel will then dispatch the signal to the appropriate signal manager which may or may not be PM. SYSLIB CHANGES: - Simplified SEF init and LU callbacks. - Added additional predefined SEF callbacks to debug crash recovery and live update. - Fixed a temporary ack in the SEF init protocol. SEF init reply is now completely synchronous. - Added SEF signal event type to provide a uniform interface for system processes to deal with signals. A sef_cb_signal_handler() callback is available for system processes to handle every received signal. A sef_cb_signal_manager() callback is used by signal managers to process system signals on behalf of the kernel. - Fixed a few bugs with memory mapping and DS. VM CHANGES: - Page faults and memory requests coming from the kernel are now implemented using signals. - Added a new VM call to swap two process slots and implement live update. - The call is used by RS at update time and in turn invokes the kernel call sys_update(). RS CHANGES: - RS has been reworked with a better functional decomposition. - Better kernel call masks. com.h now defines the set of very basic kernel calls every system service is allowed to use. This makes system.conf simpler and easier to maintain. In addition, this guarantees a higher level of isolation for system libraries that use one or more kernel calls internally (e.g. printf). - RS is the default signal manager for system processes. By default, RS intercepts every signal delivered to every system process. This makes crash recovery possible before bringing PM and friends in the loop. - RS now supports fast rollback when something goes wrong while initializing the new version during a live update. - Live update is now implemented by keeping the two versions side-by-side and swapping the process slots when the old version is ready to update. - Crash recovery is now implemented by keeping the two versions side-by-side and cleaning up the old version only when the recovery process is complete. DS CHANGES: - Fixed a bug when the process doing ds_publish() or ds_delete() is not known by DS. - Fixed the completely broken support for strings. String publishing is now implemented in the system library and simply wraps publishing of memory ranges. Ideally, we should adopt a similar approach for other data types as well. - Test suite fixed. DRIVER CHANGES: - The hello driver has been added to the Minix distribution to demonstrate basic live update and crash recovery functionalities. - Other drivers have been adapted to conform the new SEF interface.

Basic System Event Framework (SEF) with ping and live update. SYSLIB CHANGES: - SEF must be used by every system process and is thereby part of the system library. - The framework provides a receive() interface (sef_receive) for system processes to automatically catch known system even messages and process them. - SEF provides a default behavior for each type of system event, but allows system processes to register callbacks to override the default behavior. - Custom (local to the process) or predefined (provided by SEF) callback implementations can be registered to SEF. - SEF currently includes support for 2 types of system events: 1. SEF Ping. The event occurs every time RS sends a ping to figure out whether a system process is still alive. The default callback implementation provided by SEF is to notify RS back to let it know the process is alive and kicking. 2. SEF Live update. The event occurs every time RS sends a prepare to update message to let a system process know an update is available and to prepare for it. The live update support is very basic for now. SEF only deals with verifying if the prepare state can be supported by the process, dumping the state for debugging purposes, and providing an event-driven programming model to the process to react to state changes check-in when ready to update. - SEF should be extended in the future to integrate support for more types of system events. Ideally, all the cross-cutting concerns should be integrated into SEF to avoid duplicating code and ease extensibility. Examples include: * PM notify messages primarily used at shutdown. * SYSTEM notify messages primarily used for signals. * CLOCK notify messages used for system alarms. * Debug messages. IS could still be in charge of fkey handling but would forward the debug message to the target process (e.g. PM, if the user requested debug information about PM). SEF would then catch the message and do nothing unless the process has registered an appropriate callback to deal with the event. This simplifies the programming model to print debug information, avoids duplicating code, and reduces the effort to print debug information. SYSTEM PROCESSES CHANGES: - Every system process registers SEF callbacks it needs to override the default system behavior and calls sef_startup() right after being started. - sef_startup() does almost nothing now, but will be extended in the future to support callbacks of its own to let RS control and synchronize with every system process at initialization time. - Every system process calls sef_receive() now rather than receive() directly, to let SEF handle predefined system events. RS CHANGES: - RS supports a basic single-component live update protocol now, as follows: * When an update command is issued (via "service update *"), RS notifies the target system process to prepare for a specific update state. * If the process doesn't respond back in time, the update is aborted. * When the process responds back, RS kills it and marks it for refreshing. * The process is then automatically restarted as for a buggy process and can start running again. * Live update is currently prototyped as a controlled failure.

libsys: various updates - move system calls for use by services from libminlib into libsys; - move srv_fork(2) and srv_kill(2) from RS and into libsys; - replace getprocnr(2) with sef_self(3); - rename previous getnprocnr(2) to getprocnr(2); - clean up getepinfo(2); - change all libsys calls that used _syscall to use _taskcall, so as to avoid going through errno to pass errors; this is already how most calls work anyway, and many of the calls previously using _syscall were already assumed to return the actual error; - initialize request messages to zero, for future compatibility (note that this does not include PCI calls, which are in need of a much bigger overhaul, nor kernel calls); - clean up more of dead DS code as a side effect.

New RS and new signal handling for system processes. UPDATING INFO: 20100317: /usr/src/etc/system.conf updated to ignore default kernel calls: copy it (or merge it) to /etc/system.conf. The hello driver (/dev/hello) added to the distribution: # cd /usr/src/commands/scripts && make clean install # cd /dev && MAKEDEV hello KERNEL CHANGES: - Generic signal handling support. The kernel no longer assumes PM as a signal manager for every process. The signal manager of a given process can now be specified in its privilege slot. When a signal has to be delivered, the kernel performs the lookup and forwards the signal to the appropriate signal manager. PM is the default signal manager for user processes, RS is the default signal manager for system processes. To enable ptrace()ing for system processes, it is sufficient to change the default signal manager to PM. This will temporarily disable crash recovery, though. - sys_exit() is now split into sys_exit() (i.e. exit() for system processes, which generates a self-termination signal), and sys_clear() (i.e. used by PM to ask the kernel to clear a process slot when a process exits). - Added a new kernel call (i.e. sys_update()) to swap two process slots and implement live update. PM CHANGES: - Posix signal handling is no longer allowed for system processes. System signals are split into two fixed categories: termination and non-termination signals. When a non-termination signaled is processed, PM transforms the signal into an IPC message and delivers the message to the system process. When a termination signal is processed, PM terminates the process. - PM no longer assumes itself as the signal manager for system processes. It now makes sure that every system signal goes through the kernel before being actually processes. The kernel will then dispatch the signal to the appropriate signal manager which may or may not be PM. SYSLIB CHANGES: - Simplified SEF init and LU callbacks. - Added additional predefined SEF callbacks to debug crash recovery and live update. - Fixed a temporary ack in the SEF init protocol. SEF init reply is now completely synchronous. - Added SEF signal event type to provide a uniform interface for system processes to deal with signals. A sef_cb_signal_handler() callback is available for system processes to handle every received signal. A sef_cb_signal_manager() callback is used by signal managers to process system signals on behalf of the kernel. - Fixed a few bugs with memory mapping and DS. VM CHANGES: - Page faults and memory requests coming from the kernel are now implemented using signals. - Added a new VM call to swap two process slots and implement live update. - The call is used by RS at update time and in turn invokes the kernel call sys_update(). RS CHANGES: - RS has been reworked with a better functional decomposition. - Better kernel call masks. com.h now defines the set of very basic kernel calls every system service is allowed to use. This makes system.conf simpler and easier to maintain. In addition, this guarantees a higher level of isolation for system libraries that use one or more kernel calls internally (e.g. printf). - RS is the default signal manager for system processes. By default, RS intercepts every signal delivered to every system process. This makes crash recovery possible before bringing PM and friends in the loop. - RS now supports fast rollback when something goes wrong while initializing the new version during a live update. - Live update is now implemented by keeping the two versions side-by-side and swapping the process slots when the old version is ready to update. - Crash recovery is now implemented by keeping the two versions side-by-side and cleaning up the old version only when the recovery process is complete. DS CHANGES: - Fixed a bug when the process doing ds_publish() or ds_delete() is not known by DS. - Fixed the completely broken support for strings. String publishing is now implemented in the system library and simply wraps publishing of memory ranges. Ideally, we should adopt a similar approach for other data types as well. - Test suite fixed. DRIVER CHANGES: - The hello driver has been added to the Minix distribution to demonstrate basic live update and crash recovery functionalities. - Other drivers have been adapted to conform the new SEF interface.

SEF Ping. The event occurs every time RS sends a ping to figure out whether a system process is still alive. The default callback implementation provided by SEF is to notify RS back to let it know the process is alive and kicking. 2. SEF Live update. The event occurs every time RS sends a prepare to update message to let a system process know an update is available and to prepare for it. The live update support is very basic for now. SEF only deals with verifying if the prepare state can be supported by the process, dumping the state for debugging purposes, and providing an event-driven programming model to the process to react to state changes check-in when ready to update. - SEF should be extended in the future to integrate support for more types of system events. Ideally, all the cross-cutting concerns should be integrated into SEF to avoid duplicating code and ease extensibility. Examples include: * PM notify messages primarily used at shutdown. * SYSTEM notify messages primarily used for signals. * CLOCK notify messages used for system alarms. * Debug messages. IS could still be in charge of fkey handling but would forward the debug message to the target process (e.g. PM, if the user requested debug information about PM). SEF would then catch the message and do nothing unless the process has registered an appropriate callback to deal with the event. This simplifies the programming model to print debug information, avoids duplicating code, and reduces the effort to print debug information. SYSTEM PROCESSES CHANGES: - Every system process registers SEF callbacks it needs to override the default system behavior and calls sef_startup() right after being started. - sef_startup() does almost nothing now, but will be extended in the future to support callbacks of its own to let RS control and synchronize with every system process at initialization time. - Every system process calls sef_receive() now rather than receive() directly, to let SEF handle predefined system events. RS CHANGES: - RS supports a basic single-component live update protocol now, as follows: * When an update command is issued (via "service update *"), RS notifies the target system process to prepare for a specific update state. * If the process doesn't respond back in time, the update is aborted. * When the process responds back, RS kills it and marks it for refreshing. * The process is then automatically restarted as for a buggy process and can start running again. * Live update is currently prototyped as a controlled failure.
