773844a816 New interface between PM and FS. 2006-05-11 14:57:23 +00:00

eae250dea4 . load average calculation changed to calculate it all over every tick
instead of keeping a running total of enqueued processes
   (because somehow the load average was broken)
 . added SI_KPROC_TAB to get a copy of kernel process table from PM, for
   a top implementation
 . fixed arg to sys_nice() to make it an endpoint, not a slot number

1a7f7d6333 at_wini: removed RO_BIT misfeature, not used any more
pm: fixed rebooting by making a copy of the monitor code from the user
    process. this is necessary because that process is dead by the time
    sys_abort() is called.

    also added more info to the "can't reply" panic.

7967177710 endpoint-aware conversion of servers.
'who', indicating caller number in pm and fs and some other servers, has
been removed in favour of 'who_e' (endpoint) and 'who_p' (proc nr.).

In both PM and FS, isokendpt() convert endpoints to process slot
numbers, returning OK if it was a valid and consistent endpoint number.
okendpt() does the same but panic()s if it doesn't succeed. (In PM,
this is pm_isok..)

pm and fs keep their own records of process endpoints in their proc tables,
which are needed to make kernel calls about those processes.

message field names have changed.

fs drivers are endpoints.

fs now doesn't try to get out of driver deadlock, as the protocol isn't
supposed to let that happen any more. (A warning is printed if ELOCKED
is detected though.)

fproc[].fp_task (indicating which driver the process is suspended on)
became an int.

PM and FS now get endpoint numbers of initial boot processes from the
kernel. These happen to be the same as the old proc numbers, to let
user processes reach them with the old numbers, but FS and PM don't know
that. All new processes after INIT, even after the generation number
wraps around, get endpoint numbers with generation 1 and higher, so
the first instances of the boot processes are the only processes ever
to have endpoint numbers in the old proc number range.

More return code checks of sys_* functions have been added.

IS has become endpoint-aware. Ditched the 'text' and 'data' fields
in the kernel dump (which show locations, not sizes, so aren't terribly
useful) in favour of the endpoint number. Proc number is still visible.

Some other dumps (e.g. dmap, rs) show endpoint numbers now too which got
the formatting changed.

PM reading segments using rw_seg() has changed - it uses other fields
in the message now instead of encoding the segment and process number and
fd in the fd field. For that it uses _read_pm() and _write_pm() which to
_taskcall()s directly in pm/misc.c.

PM now sys_exit()s itself on panic(), instead of sys_abort().

RS also talks in endpoints instead of process numbers.

5333d4f4e4 . don't kill tty, send it messages on signals
. kill processes first, then tell fs to reboot (otherwise fs will have
  exited its processes and be confused when they exit again)

c9c6983cc1 Fixed a few quirks in misc.c
. MAX used where it should've been MIN
  . buffer byte too short
  . inobvious use of & with && without parantheses
  . funny length checking

c2cd510adf Removed debug dumps from the PM and FS servers. The dumps are now done by the
IS servers, which obtains a copy of the data through the getsysinfo() system
call. CTRL-F1 now is a special TTY key to shows function key mappings.

2f74381dcc Fixed 'ps' utility: now get process table addresses with getsysinfo() calls.
To be done: get copies of process tables instead of using /dev/(k)mem.

f2a85e58d9 Various updates.
* Removed some variants of the SYS_GETINFO calls from the kernel;
  replaced them with new PM and utils libary functionality. Fixed
  bugs in utils library that used old get_kenv() variant.
* Implemented a buffer in the kernel to gather random data.
  Memory driver periodically checks this for /dev/random.
  A better random algorithm can now be implemented in the driver.
  Removed SYS_RANDOM; the SYS_GETINFO call is used instead.
* Remove SYS_KMALLOC from the kernel. Memory allocation can now
  be done at the process manager with new 'other' library functions.

07d582872f Fixed a bug in PM: sending of reply messages didn't check if destination
process is still alive. This caused a panic in some situations, e.g., when
all processes are killed on a shutdown.

307c825515 New NOTIFY trap (IPC call) to send queued notification messages.
The call works. Permission check, restriction of outstanding notifications
to be added. Low level code to make it work from within interrupt handlers
will be added as well.
