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.
