/* This file contains essentially all of the process and message handling.
* It has two main entry points from the outside:
*
* sys_call: a system call, that is, the kernel is trapped with an INT
* notify: notify process of a system event (notifications aren't queued)
*
* It also has several minor entry points:
*
* lock_ready: put a process on one of the ready queues so it can be run
* lock_unready: remove a process from the ready queues
* lock_sched: a process has run too long; schedule another one
* lock_pick_proc: pick a process to run (used by system initialization)
* unhold: repeat all held-up notifications
*
* Changes:
* Nov 05, 2004 removed lock_mini_send() (Jorrit N. Herder)
* Oct 28, 2004 non-blocking SEND and RECEIVE (Jorrit N. Herder)
* Oct 28, 2004 rewrite of sys_call() (Jorrit N. Herder)
* Oct 10, 2004 require BOTH for kernel sys_call() (Jorrit N. Herder)
* (to protect kernel tasks from being blocked)
* Sep 25, 2004 generalized notify() function (Jorrit N. Herder)
* Sep 23, 2004 removed PM sig check in mini_rec() (Jorrit N. Herder)
* Aug 19, 2004 generalized ready()/unready() (Jorrit N. Herder)
* Aug 18, 2004 added notify() function (Jorrit N. Herder)
* May 01, 2004 check p_sendmask in mini_send() (Jorrit N. Herder)
