since it unlocked the cache while waiting on a busy page. Now, we're filling
the pending request before unlocking the cache.
* Fixed the deadlock I mentioned in the last commit: if a page fault happens
at the same time we're trying to read/write from/to a page, we no longer
fight for the BFS inode lock, but eventually doing the job twice if needed.
Will need to go over the "write modified" functions to make sure they are
behaving as well.

now on the amount of memory installed in the system. Ie. if you have only
128 MB the kernel heap will be only half in size.
* Minor cleanup in vm_page.c, renamed some variables to match our style guide.
git-svn-id: file:///srv/svn/repos/haiku/haiku/trunk@16838 a95241bf-73f2-0310-859d-f6bbb57e9c96
now reflects the number of pages in the areas cache, instead of just the size of the
area.

or vm_cache_ref couldn't be created, instead of cleaning up and returning
an appropriate error.
* vm_cache_ref_create() no returns a status_t instead of the vm_cache_ref
(as that's part of the vm_cache anyway).
git-svn-id: file:///srv/svn/repos/haiku/haiku/trunk@16602 a95241bf-73f2-0310-859d-f6bbb57e9c96
* In reserve_boot_loader_ranges() we skip ranges that lie without
the kernel address space (we failed and panic()ed before). The
architecture specific code has to deal with those, if they are
of any importance.
* sAvailableMemoryLock.sem was not set to -1 in vm_init() so code
executed after semaphores were available but before the semaphore
was created caused semaphore 0 to be acquired.
git-svn-id: file:///srv/svn/repos/haiku/haiku/trunk@15889 a95241bf-73f2-0310-859d-f6bbb57e9c96
vm_cache_ref starts with a reference count of 1. When acquiring a vm_cache,
you no longer need to worry if that should go through the vm_store, or not;
as it now always does.
* map_backing_store() no longer needs to play with the vm_cache_ref
references.
* that simplified some code.
* vfs_get_vnode_cache() now grabs a reference to the cache, if successful.
* better balanced vnode ownership on vnode_store creation (vnode_store
released the vnode before if its creation failed).

this saves 4 bytes per page. To compensate the loss of bytes, the offset is now
stored in page size units, that's enough to address 2^44 or 16 TB (which is now
the maximal supported file size!).
* Renamed vm_page::ppn to physical_page_number.

them apart (this even saves a pointer from vm_virtual_map to its address space)
* aspace -> address_space
* vm_create_address_space() did not check if creating the semaphore succeeded
* Removed team::kaspace - was not really needed (introduced a new vm_kernel_address_space()
function that doesn't grab a reference to the address space)
* Removed vm_address_space::name - it was just a copy of the team name, anyway,
and there is always only one address space per team
* Removed aspace_id - the address space is now using the team_id
* Some cleanup.

written the page, we now do it before, so that it cannot lose any changed data
anymore; it doesn't matter if the page is written to while writing it back, the
worst thing that can happen is that we write the same page twice. Also, we don't
rely on the PAGE_MODIFIED bit anymore, we now check all mappings of that page
to find all modified pages, no matter how far the (currently disabled) page
daemon had come.
Also, destroying an area will now result in writing back changed pages - this
is only really important for memory mapped files, though, and should probably
be avoided for other vm_store types.
Minor cleanup.

has not yet been tested, though - I'll do this after this commit):
* Removed the arch_memory_type stuff from vm_area; since there are only 8 memory
ranges on x86, it's simply overkill. The MTRR code now remembers the area ID
and finds the MTRR that way (it could also iterate over the existing MTRRs).
* Introduced some post_modules() init functions.
* If the other x86 CPUs out there don't differ a lot, MTRR functionality might
be put back into the kernel.
* x86_write_msr() was broken, it wrote the 64 bit number with the 32 bit words
switched - it took me some time (and lots of #GPs) to figure that one out.
* Removed the macro read_ebp() and introduced a function x86_read_ebp()
(it's not really a time critical call).
* Followed the Intel docs on how to change MTRRs (symmetrically on all CPUs
with caches turned off).
* Asking for memory types will automatically change the requested length to
a power of two - note that BeOS seems to behave in the same, although that's
not really very clean.
* fixed MTRRs are ignored for now - we should make sure at least, though,
that they are identical on all CPUs (or turn them off, even though I'd
prefer the BIOS stuff to be uncacheable, which we don't enforce yet, though).

sends a SIGSEGV signal (and lets the debugger handle the rest).

pages, ie. they considered the areas to be B_LAZY_LOCK. But that doesn't really make
sense and potentially cause page faults where you wouldn't expect them (and where
it's not a good idea to trigger them).
Reworked display_mem() (used by the dw/db/ds commands in the kernel debugger) to
be a bit more sane, improved formatting, and allows it to work on non-existing
memory without a panic.
The "area" debugger command now also accepts an address (contained by the area)
as argument - and it will now always print out an error message if no matching
area could be found.
Replaced all dprintf() calls to kprintf() calls for the kernel debugger functions.

prevents the system to allocate caches for files that don't use or have
a file cache (ie. only those can be mmap()ed!).
Therefore, cache_prefetch() no longer crashes when trying to prefetch
files without a file cache.
read_into_cache() no longer does anything if the requested size is 0.
Fixed a bug in cache_prefetch_vnode(): if the cache couldn't be retrieved,
it put the vnode, but didn't own it (the caller does).
git-svn-id: file:///srv/svn/repos/haiku/haiku/trunk@13904 a95241bf-73f2-0310-859d-f6bbb57e9c96
Removed vfs_vnode_release_ref(), as vfs_put_vnode() already does the same thing.

into account when remapping the pages read-only; it could have overwritten valid
page mappings this way. This was also the reason for the Terminal to crash - it
does now work as it should, although some keys don't work (like tab completion)).
vm_copy_area() no longer always sets B_KERNEL_WRITE_AREA if no kernel protection
was specified, but mirrors the userland protection (for example, the x86 MMU is
not able to have a page writable in kernel but not in userland). This caused
some areas to be read/write when read-only would have been enough.
vm_copy_area() now panics when vm_copy_on_write_area() fails - that's of course
no real solution, but it's bettern than letting it silently fail.

time of the idle thread. IOW Pulse now works :-)
Renamed the idle thread/stack to start with 1 instead of 0 (first idle thread will
be called "idle thread 1").
Minor cleanup.
