Kees Jongenburger 3139ce9631 arm:omap timers remove hardcoded base address.
Omap timers remove hardcoded base address and add some initial
support for the beaglebone's timers. Frclock_util will need
refactoring to remain independent of the ARM flavour.

Ben Gras d12d57dcd8 arm: recognize instruction fetch pagefault
. an instruction fetch pagefault generates a prefetch
	  abort exception, this should also be a source of
	  a pagefault event
	. the saved_lr argument to the C exception handler was
	  sometimes an address, sometimes a pointer to that address;
	  the kernel sometimes dereferences it, so it should always be
	  an in-kernel address, never a userspace address. fix in mpx.S
	  makes it always a pointer.
	. move dumping of all processes over serial out of
	  the arch-specific arch_system.c

Ben Gras 0cfff08e56 libexec: mmap support, prealloc variants
In libexec, split the memory allocation method into cleared and
non-cleared. Cleared gives zeroed memory, non-cleared gives 'junk'
memory (that will be overwritten anyway, and so needn't be cleared)
that is faster to get.

Also introduce the 'memmap' method that can be used, if available,
to map code and data from executables into a process using the
third-party mmap() mode.

Thomas Cort 15b3d77268 libc: add adjtime() system call.
Implement the adjtime() system call and add a test for it to test69.
Additionally, install the adjtime.2 and clock_*.2 man pages.
2013-04-04 15:04:54 +02:00
Thomas Cort 516fec97d9 libc: add clock_settime() system call.
This also adds the sys_settime() kernel call which allows for the adjusting
of the clock named realtime in the kernel. The existing sys_stime()
function is still needed for a separate job (setting the boottime). The
boottime is set in the readclock driver. The sys_settime() interface is
meant to be flexible and will support both clock_settime() and adjtime()
when adjtime() is implemented later.

settimeofday() was adjusted to use the clock_settime() interface.

One side note discovered during testing: uptime(1) (part of the last(1)),
uses wtmp to determine boottime (not Minix's times(2)). This leads `uptime`
to report odd results when you set the time to a time prior to boottime.
This isn't a new bug introduced by my changes. It's been there for a while.

Thomas Cort e67fc5771d libc: add clock_getres()/clock_gettime() system calls.
In order to make it more clear that ticks should be used for timers
and realtime should be used for timestamps / displaying the date/time,
getuptime() was renamed to getticks() and getuptime2() was renamed to
getuptime().

Servers, drivers, libraries, tests, etc that use getuptime()/getuptime2()
have been updated. In instances where a realtime was calculated, the
calculation was changed to use realtime.

System calls clock_getres() and clock_gettime() were added to PM/libc.

Thomas Cort 5142b1f388 kernel: rename realtime to monotonic, add realtime
Old realtime was used for both timers (where an accurate count of
all ticks is needed) and the system time. In order to implement
adjtime(2), these duties must be separated as changing the time
of day by a small amount shouldn't affect timers in any way nor
should it change the boot time.

Following the naming of the clocks used by clock_gettime(2). The
clock named 'realtime' will represent the best guess at the
current wall clock time, and the clock named 'monotonic' will
represent the absolute time the system has been running.
Use monotonic for timers in kernel and in drivers. Use realtime
for determining time of day, dates, etc.

This commit simply renames realtime to monotonic and adds a new
tick counter named realtime. There are no functional changes in
this commit. It just lays the foundation for future work.

Ben Gras 5acaa0814f kernel, ramdisk: some boot unification
To use the new SD building script, Linux has to be configured with
loop.max_part=15 on the command line (or set at module load time)
to make the loopback device see the partitions.

This commit removes a lot of differences between the ARM and x86
boot ramdisk and rc scripts. It changes the ARM build from running
from ramdisk to requiring a full filesystem on the SD image and
booting into it.

	. ramdisk: remove some arm-only utilities only used for running
	  from the shell
	. remove ARM-only rc.arm, proto.arm.small, ttys and mylogin.sh
	  boot-time ramdisk files
	. change kernel to add "arch" variable so userland knows what
	  we're running on from sysenv
	. make ARM use the regular ramdisk rc file, changed to distinguish
	  i386-only and ARM-only drivers; requires rootdevname to be set
	. change /etc/rc and /usr/etc/rc to start i386-only drivers only on
	  i386 systems
	. change the kernel/arm to have a special case for the memory
	  driver to load it higher so it can be bigger
	. add uEnv.txt, cmdline.txt and a for now highly linux-dependent
	  SD preparation script arm_sdimage.sh to the git repository in
	  releasetools/

Lionel Sambuc 8f3fbf7cc1 Cleanup: Remove minix.bootprog.mk
The build system distinction between "bootprog" and "service" is
meaningless as boot programs are standard services.

As minix.service.mk simply imports minix.bootprog.mk, reduce confusion
by removing minix.bootprog.mk and placing the rules in minix.service.mk.

Thomas Veerman db8c1ee9d0 ARM: provide free running clock to replace ccnt
The Cycle CouNTer on ARM cannot be used reliably as it wraps around
rather quickly and can be altered by user space (on Minix). Furthermore,
it's buggy when wrapping and is not implemented at all on the Linaro
Beagleboard emulator.

This patch programs GPTIMER10 as a free running clock at 1.625 MHz (it
doesn't generate interrupts). It's memory mapped into every process,
which enables libsys to provide micro_delay().

 * If you add a subdirectory, add a Makefile in it, and have it called
   by the parent through the SUBDIR variable.
 * Do not add arbitrary inclusion which crosses to another branch of
   the hierarchy; If you can't do without it, put a comment on why.
   If possible, do not use inclusion at all.
 * Use as much as possible the infrastructure, it is here to make
   life easier, do not fight it.

Sets and package are now used to track files.
We have one set called "minix", composed of one package called "minix-sys"

Lionel Sambuc e415d48872 Libc update to simplify merge.
Bumping libc files for unsupported architectures, to simplify merging.
A bunch of small fixes:
 * in libutil update
 * the macro in endian.h
 * some undefined types due to clear separation from host.
 * Fix a warning for cdbr.c

Some modification which were required for the new build system:
 * inclusion path for const.h in sconst, still hacky
 * Removed default malloc.c which conflicts on some occasions.

Ben Gras ba05f39d1e kernel: some boottime sanitychecks
. Check if we have the right number of boot modules
	. Check if the ELF parsing of VM actually succeeded

Both these are root causes of less-than-obvious other
errors/asserts a little further down the line; uncovered
while experimenting with booting by iPXE, specifically
(a) iPXE having a 8-multiboot-modules limit and
(b) trying to boot a gzipped VM.

	  has to save it
	. to accomodate multiple kernel entry/exit types, the entry
	  type is recorded in the process struct. hitherto all types
	  were interrupt (soft int, exception, hard int); now SYSENTER/SYSCALL
	  is new, with the difference that context is not fully restored
	  from proc struct when running the process again. this can't be
	  done as some information is missing.
	. complication: cases in which the kernel has to fully change
	  process context (i.e. sigreturn). in that case the exit type
	  is changed from SYSENTER/SYSEXIT to soft-int (i.e. iret) and
	  context is fully restored from the proc struct. this does mean
	  the PC and SP must change, as the sysenter/sysexit userland code
	  will otherwise try to restore its own context. this is true in the
	  sigreturn case.

Ben Gras 1d48c0148e segmentless smp fixes
adjust the smp booting procedure for segmentless operation. changes are
mostly due to gdt/idt being dependent on paging, because of the high
location, and paging being on much sooner because of that too.

also smaller fixes: redefine DESC_SIZE, fix kernel makefile variable name
(crosscompiling), some null pointer checks that trap now because of a
sparser pagetable, acpi sanity checking

Ben Gras 50e2064049 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.
