50473107c2 saved_proc in exception() may be NULL
If an exception happens in kernel while the kernel is booting and no processes
are running yet, saved_proc == NULL and priting any process related information
results in dumping rubish.

This check is mostly useful when debugging kernel stuff. Should _never_ happen
on a production kernel.

4903a734b8 IDT is initialized in idt_init() not in prot_init()
This is a backport form the SMP branch. Not required here, it only makes life
for SMP easier. And future merging too.

- filling the IDT is removed from prot_init()

- struct gate_table_s is a public type

- gate_table_pic is a global array as it is used by APIC code too

- idt_copy_vectors() is also global and used by idt_init() as well as
  apic_idt_init()

- idt_init() is called right after prot_init() in system_init()

bdab3c4cfb Library call for cpu features; make kernel and vm use this to query cpu
features (specifically: 4MB pages and TLB global bit).  Only enable
these features in CR4 if available. 4MB pages to be used in the near
future.

e3ca89c0be more sanity checking. sanity checking disabled by default.
give every process a full pagetable by default now.

first step to disabling kernel page table code (processes
might not have page tables -> no address translation).

ef8a741301 set global flag for kernel pages, so tlb entries for kernel aren't thrown
away on cr3 reload. minor optimization.

9647fbc94e moved type and constants for random data to include file;
added consistency check in random; added source of randomness
internal to random using timing; only retrieve random bins that are full.

c628f24bc2 moved stacktrace to sysctl, as vmctl is very privileged so can't
be used outside VM. IS code cleanup. added stacktrace feature to IS.

c4fb567bd5 . replace HZ by runtime system_hz (sysenv variable 'hz')
. new flag PROC_FULLVM in table indicating process wants full address
   space (this is then created and managed by VM)

6d50591226 . let kernel use read_tsc() from sysutil library
. read_tsc() in sysutil library saves edx and eax now
 . added read_tsc_64() by Antonio Mancina to load tsc into
   a 64-bit data type directly
 . deleted read_tsc.h in favour of a prototype in <minix/syslib.h>

f65b3b8fbf Use bitwise not instead of logical not on PIE flag when disabling periodic
interrupts to avoid clobbering register B. This seems to have fixed the
corrupting-CMOS bug when enabling profiling.

6f77685609 Split of architecture-dependent and -independent functions for i386,
mainly in the kernel and headers. This split based on work by
Ingmar Alting <iaalting@cs.vu.nl> done for his Minix PowerPC architecture
port.

 . kernel does not program the interrupt controller directly, do any
   other architecture-dependent operations, or contain assembly any more,
   but uses architecture-dependent functions in arch/$(ARCH)/.
 . architecture-dependent constants and types defined in arch/$(ARCH)/include.
 . <ibm/portio.h> moved to <minix/portio.h>, as they have become, for now,
   architecture-independent functions.
 . int86, sdevio, readbios, and iopenable are now i386-specific kernel calls
   and live in arch/i386/do_* now.
 . i386 arch now supports even less 86 code; e.g. mpx86.s and klib86.s have
   gone, and 'machine.protected' is gone (and always taken to be 1 in i386).
   If 86 support is to return, it should be a new architecture.
 . prototypes for the architecture-dependent functions defined in
   kernel/arch/$(ARCH)/*.c but used in kernel/ are in kernel/proto.h
 . /etc/make.conf included in makefiles and shell scripts that need to
   know the building architecture; it defines ARCH=<arch>, currently only
   i386.
 . some basic per-architecture build support outside of the kernel (lib)
 . in clock.c, only dequeue a process if it was ready
 . fixes for new include files

files deleted:
 . mpx/klib.s - only for choosing between mpx/klib86 and -386
 . klib86.s - only for 86

i386-specific files files moved (or arch-dependent stuff moved) to arch/i386/:
 . mpx386.s (entry point)
 . klib386.s
 . sconst.h
 . exception.c
 . protect.c
 . protect.h
 . i8269.c
