Jorrit Herder 872687ddfc Scheduling updates to the kernel. Sched() function now is single point for
policy. Actual policy not yet implemented.

PM calculates nice values for processes in boot image.

IS debug dumps improved (Shift+F1-F4).

/* The file contais the clock task, which handles all time related functions.
* Important events that are handled by the CLOCK include alarm timers and
* (re)scheduling user processes.
* The CLOCK offers a direct interface to kernel processes. System services
* can access its services through system calls, such as sys_setalarm(). The
* CLOCK task thus is hidden for the outside world.
*
* Changes:
* Mar 18, 2004 clock interface moved to SYSTEM task (Jorrit N. Herder)
* Sep 30, 2004 source code documentation updated (Jorrit N. Herder)
* Sep 24, 2004 redesigned alarm timers (Jorrit N. Herder)
*
* The function do_clocktick() is not triggered by the clock's interrupt
* handler when a watchdog timer has expired or a process must be scheduled.
*
* In addition to the main clock_task() entry point, which starts the main
* loop, there are several other minor entry points:
* clock_stop: called just before MINIX shutdown
* get_uptime: get realtime since boot in clock ticks
* set_timer: set a watchdog timer (+)
* reset_timer: reset a watchdog timer (+)
* calc_elapsed: do timing measurements: get delta ticks and pulses
* read_clock: read the counter of channel 0 of the 8253A timer
*
* (+) The CLOCK task keeps tracks of watchdog timers for the entire kernel.
* The watchdog functions of expired timers are executed in do_clocktick().
* It is crucial that watchdog functions cannot block, or the CLOCK task may
* be blocked. Do not send() a message when the receiver is not expecting it.
* Instead, notify(), which always returns, should be used.
