Complete ovehaul of mode switching code - after a trap to kernel, the code automatically switches to kernel stack, in the future local to the CPU - k_reenter variable replaced by a test whether the CS is kernel cs or not. The information is passed further if needed. Removes a global variable which would need to be cpu local - no need for global variables describing the exception or trap context. This information is kept on stack and a pointer to this structure is passed to the C code as a single structure - removed loadedcr3 variable and its use replaced by reading the %cr3 register - no need to redisable interrupts in restart() as they are already disabled. - unified handling of traps that push and don't push errorcode - removed save() function as the process context is not saved directly to process table but saved as required by the trap code. Essentially it means that save() code is inlined everywhere not only in the exception handling routine - returning from syscall is more arch independent - it sets the retger in C - top of the x86 stack contains the current CPU id and pointer to the currently scheduled process (the one right interrupted) so the mode switch code can find where to save the context without need to use proc_ptr which will be cpu local in the future and therefore difficult to access in assembler and expensive to access in general - some more clean up of level0 code. No need to read-back the argument passed in %eax from the proc structure. The mode switch code does not clobber %the general registers and hence we can just call what is in %eax - many assebly macros in sconst.h as they will be reused by the apic assembly

NMI watchdog is an awesome feature for debugging locked up kernels. There is not that much use for it on a single CPU, however, deadlock between kernel and system task can be delected. Or a runaway loop. If a kernel gets locked up the timer interrupts don't occure (as all interrupts are disabled in kernel mode). The only chance is to interrupt the kernel by a non-maskable interrupt. This patch generates NMIs using performance counters. It uses the most widely available performace counters. As the performance counters are highly model-specific this patch is not guaranteed to work on every machine. Unfortunately this is also true for KVM :-/ On the other hand adding this feature for other models is not extremely difficult and the framework makes it hopefully easy enough. Depending on the frequency of the CPU an NMI is generated at most about every 0.5s If the cpu's speed is less then 2Ghz it is generated at most every 1s. In general an NMI is generated much less often as the performance counter counts down only if the cpu is not idle. Therefore the overhead of this feature is fairly minimal even if the load is high. Uppon detecting that the kernel is locked up the kernel dumps the state of the kernel registers and panics. Local APIC must be enabled for the watchdog to work. The code is _always_ compiled in, however, it is only enabled if watchdog=<non-zero> is set in the boot monitor. One corner case is serial console debugging. As dumping a lot of stuff to the serial link may take a lot of time, the watchdog does not detect lockups during this time!!! as it would result in too many false positives. 10 nmi have to be handled before the lockup is detected. This means something between ~5s to 10s. Another corner case is that the watchdog is enabled only after the paging is enabled as it would be pure madness to try to get it right.

Lazy FPU - FPU context is stored only if conflict between 2 FPU users or while exporting context of a process to userspace while it is the active user of FPU - FPU has its owner (fpu_owner) which points to the process whose state is currently loaded in FPU - the FPU exception is only turned on when scheduling a process which is not the owner of FPU - FPU state is restored for the process that generated the FPU exception. This process runs immediately without letting scheduler to pick a new process to resolve the FPU conflict asap, to minimize the FPU thrashing and FPU exception hadler execution - faster all non-FPU-exception kernel entries as FPU state is not checked nor saved - removed MF_USED_FPU flag, only MF_FPU_INITIALIZED remains to signal that a process has used FPU in the past

SMP - We boot APs - kernel detects CPUs by searching ACPI tables for local apic nodes - each CPU has its own TSS that points to its own stack. All cpus boot on the same boot stack (in sequence) but switch to its private stack as soon as they can. - final booting code in main() placed in bsp_finish_booting() which is executed only after the BSP switches to its final stack - apic functions to send startup interrupts - assembler functions to handle CPU features not needed for single cpu mode like memory barries, HT detection etc. - new files kernel/smp.[ch], kernel/arch/i386/arch_smp.c and kernel/arch/i386/include/arch_smp.h - 16-bit trampoline code for the APs. It is executed by each AP after receiving startup IPIs it brings up the CPUs to 32bit mode and let them spin in an infinite loop so they don't do any damage. - implementation of kernel spinlock - CONFIG_SMP and CONFIG_MAX_CPUS set by the build system

Interrupts hadling while idle - When the cpu halts, the interrupts are enable so the cpu may be woken up. When the interrupt handler returns but another interrupt is available it is also serviced immediately. This is not a problem per-se. It only slightly breaks time accounting as idle accounted is for the kernel time in the interrupt handler. - As the big kernel lock is lock/unlocked in the smp branch in the time acounting functions as they are called exactly at the places we need to take the lock) this leads to a deadlock. - we make sure that once the interrupt handler returns from the nested trap, the interrupts are disabled. This means that only one interrupt is serviced after idle is interrupted. - this requires the loop in apic timer calibration to keep reenabling the interrupts. I admit it is a little bit hackish (one line), however, this code is a stupid corner case at the boot time. Hopefully it does not matter too much.
