16e0e9370e Use a bitmap for pending asynchronous messages instead of a global flag.
That way it works similar to pending notifications.

c6e6aa8850 mark forked process as such in the kernel p_name
. helps debugging output; you can see the difference
    between parent and child easily (it's sometimes 
    confusing to see an expected endpoint number with
    an unexpected name, i.e. before exec())
  . when processes crash after fork and before exec, it's
    an instant hint that that's what's going on, instead of
    it being the parent (endpoint numbers don't usually convey
    this)
  . name returns to 'normal' after exec(), so *F isn't visible
    normally at all. (Except for for RS which forks apparently.)

fa59fc6eb4 Move shared headers in common/include
Headers that will be shared between old includes and NetBSD-like includes
are moved into common/include tree. They are still copied in /usr/include
in 'make includes', so compilation and programs aren't be affected.

9e01a83636 SMP - reduced TLB flushing
- flush TLB of processes only if the page tables has been changed and
  the page tables of this process are already loaded on this cpu which

a1eefc013e single shot timer interrupts fix
- accidentaly this wasn't part of the SMP merge and the implementation
  remained uncomplete with the timer keeping ticking periodically

- APIC timer is set for a signel shot and restarted everytime it
  expires. This way we can keep the AP's trully idle

- the timer is restarted a little later before leaving to userspace

- LAPIC_TIMER_ICR is written before LAPIC_LVTTR so the newest value is
  used

1786291e32 Watchdog and kernel profiling for AMD
- a different set of MSRs and performance counters is used on AMD

- when initializing NMI watchdog the test for Intel architecture
  performance counters feature only applies to Intel now

- NMI is enabled if the CPU belongs to a family which has the
  performance counters that we use

8eece1c00c CPU type detection
- sometimes the system needs to know precisely on what type of cpu is
  running. The cpu type id detected during arch specific
  initialization and kept in the machine structure for later use.

- as a side-effect the information is exported to userland
2010-09-23 14:42:19 +00:00

ef92583c3a Busy idle loop when profiling
- the Intel architecture cycle counter (performance counter) does not
  count when the CPU is idle therefore we use busy loop instead of
  halting the cpu when there is nothing to schedule

- the downside is that handling interrupts may be accounted as idle
  time if a sample is taken before we get out of the nested trap and
  pick a new process

87c576584d Internal 64M buffer for profiling
- when profiling is compiled in kernel includes a 64M buffer for
  sample

- 64M is the default used by profile tool as its buffer

- when using nmi profiling it is not possible to always copy sample
  stright to userland as the nmi may (and does) happen in bad moments

- reduces sampling overhead as samples are copied out only when
  profiling stops

Tomas Hruby
e63b85a50b NMI sampling
- if profile --nmi kernel uses NMI watchdog based sampling based on
  Intel architecture performance counters

- using NMI makes kernel profiling possible

- watchdog kernel lockup detection is disabled while sampling as we
  may get unpredictable interrupts in kernel and thus possibly many
  false positives

- if watchdog is not enabled at boot time, profiling enables it and
  turns it of again when done

db12229ce3 New profile protocol
- when kernel profiles a process for the first time it saves an entry
  describing the process [endpoint|name]

- every profile sample is only [endpoint|pc]

- profile utility creates a table of endpoint <-> name relations and
  translates endpoints of samples into names and writing out the
  results to comply with the processing tools

- "task" endpoints like KERNEL are negative thus we must cast it to
  unsigned when hashing

a665ae3de1 Userspace scheduling - exporting stats
- contributed by Bjorn Swift

- adds process accounting, for example counting the number of messages
  sent, how often the process was preemted and how much time it spent
  in the run queue. These statistics, along with the current cpu load,
  are sent back to the user-space scheduler in the Out Of Quantum
  message.

- the user-space scheduler may choose to make use of these statistics
  when making scheduling decisions. For isntance the cpu load becomes
  especially useful when scheduling on multiple cores.

1f89845bb2 SMP - can boot even if some cpus fail to boot
- EBADCPU is returned is scheduler tries to run a process on a CPU
  that either does not exist or isn't booted

- this change was originally meant to deal with stupid cpuid
  instruction which provides totally useless information about
  hyper-threading and MPS which does not deal with ht at all. ACPI
  provides correct information. If ht is turned off it looks like some
  CPUs failed to boot.  Nevertheless this patch may be handy for
  testing/benchmarking in the future.

- measurement son real hw show that the overhead of this lock is close

- apic functions to send startup interrupts

- assembler functions to handle CPU features not needed for single cpu
  mode like memory barries, HT detection etc.

- new files kernel/smp.[ch], kernel/arch/i386/arch_smp.c and
  kernel/arch/i386/include/arch_smp.h

- 16-bit trampoline code for the APs. It is executed by each AP after
  receiving startup IPIs it brings up the CPUs to 32bit mode and let

	get_cpu_var(cpu, name)

	get_cpulocal_var(name)
	get_cpulocal_var_ptr(name)

e6ebac015d APIC mode uses IO APICs
- kernel turns on IO APICs if no_apic is _not_ set or is equal 0

- pci driver must use the acpi driver to setup IRQ routing otherwise
  the system cannot work correctly except systems like KVM that use
  only legacy (E)ISA IRQs 0-15

2440ffae49 Kernel exports DSDP and apic_enabled in machine structure
- kernel exports DSDP (the root pointer where ACPI parsing starts) and
  apic_enabled in the machine structure.

- ACPI driver uses DSDP to locate ACPI in memory. acpi_enabled tell
  PCI driver to query ACPI for IRQ routing information.

45badf4c05 ACPI in kernel
- the ability for kernel to use ACPI tables to detect IO APICs. It is
  the bare minimum the kernel needs to know about ACPI tables.

- it will be used to find out about processors as the MPS tables are
  deprecated by ACPI and not all vendorsprovide them.

- kernel compile was broken with gcc as putchar() was added by gcc in
    stacktrace.c
  - add -fno-builtin everywhere to avoid such problems in the future
  - -fno-builtin in kernel now redundant

  sanity check to make sure that the new sender is not enqueued
  already

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
