360de619c0 No linear addresses in message delivery
- removes p_delivermsg_lin item from the process structure and code
  related to it

- as the send part, the receive does not need to use the
  PHYS_COPY_CATCH() and umap_local() couple.  

- The address space of the target process is installed before
  delivermsg() is called.

- unlike the linear address, the virtual address does not change when
  paging is turned on nor after fork().

cbc9586c13 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

2f892aca91 kernel fpu context switching: fix race condition
There seems to have been a broken assumption in the fpu context
restoring code.  It restores the context of the running process, without
guarantee that the current process is the one that will be scheduled.
This caused fpu saving for a different process to be triggered without
fpu hardware being enabled, causing an fpu exception in the kernel. This
practically only shows up with DEBUG_RACE on. Fix my thruby+me.

The fix
 . is to only set the fpu-in-use-by-this-process flag in the
   exception handler, and then take care of fpu restoring when
   actually returning to userspace

And the patch
 . translates fpu saving and restoring to c in arch_system.c,
   getting rid of a juicy chunk of assembly
 . makes osfxsr_feature private to arch_system.c
 . removes most of the arch dependent code from do_sigsend

451a6890d6 scheduling - time quantum in miliseconds
- Currently the cpu time quantum is timer-ticks based. Thus the
  remaining quantum is decreased only if the processes is interrupted
  by a timer tick. As processes block a lot this typically does not
  happen for normal user processes. Also the quantum depends on the
  frequency of the timer.

- This change makes the quantum miliseconds based. Internally the
  miliseconds are translated into cpu cycles. Everytime userspace
  execution is interrupted by kernel the cycles just consumed by the
  current process are deducted from the remaining quantum.

- It makes the quantum system timer frequency independent.

- The boot processes quantum is loosely derived from the tick-based
  quantas and 60Hz timer and subject to future change

- the 64bit arithmetics is a little ugly, will be changes once we have
  compiler support for 64bit integers (soon)

6d0e53c2ca use oxpcie only if enabled to avoid baud bottleneck of uart. 2010-05-19 10:18:46 +00:00
Ben Gras
9ba760e603 kernel: oxpcie serial card support.
ask to map in oxpcie i/o memory and support serial i/o for it in the
kernel. set oxpcie=<address> in boot monitor (retrieve address using
pci_debug=1 output). (no sanity checking is done on the address
currently.) disabled by default.

The change also contains some other minor cleanup (a new serial.h to set
register info common to UART and the OXPCIe card, in-kernel memory
mapping a little more structured and env_get() to get sysenv variables
without knowing about the params_buffer).

b90c2d7026 rename of mode/context switching functions
- this patch only renames schedcheck() to switch_to_user(),
  cycles_accounting_stop() to context_stop() and restart() to
  +restore_user_context()

- the motivation is that since the introduction of schedcheck() it has
  been abused for many things. It deserves a better name.  It should
  express the fact that from the moment we call the function we are in
  the process of switching to user.

- cycles_accounting_stop() was originally a single purpose function.
  As this function is called at were convenient places it is used in
  for other things too, e.g. (un)locking the kernel. Thus it deserves
  a better name too.

- using the old name, restart() does not call schedcheck(), however
  calls to restart are replaced by calls to schedcheck()
  [switch_to_user] and it calls restart() [restore_user_context]

57a88ce708 debugging - printing processes on serial
- this patch moves the former printslot() from arch_system.c to
  debug.c and reimplements it slightly. The output is not changed,
  however, the process information is printed in a separate function
  print_proc() in debug.c as such a function is also handy in other
  situations and should be publicly available when debugging.

f51eea4b32 Changed pagefault delivery to VM
this patch changes the way pagefaults are delivered to VM. It adopts
the same model as the out-of-quantum messages sent by kernel to a
scheduler.

- everytime a userspace pagefault occurs, kernel creates a message
  which is sent to VM on behalf of the faulting process

- the process is blocked on delivery to VM in the standard IPC code
  instead of waiting in a spacial in-kernel queue (stack) and is not
  runnable until VM tell kernel that the pagefault is resolved and is
  free to clear the RTS_PAGEFAULT flag.

- VM does not need call kernel and poll the pagefault information
  which saves many (1/2?) calls and kernel calls that return "no more
  data"

- VM notification by kernel does not need to use signals

- each entry in proc table is by 12 bytes smaller (~3k save)
