checks it now.
* Check for NULL pointer in alloc_tracing_buffer_strcpy(), and also
determine the length of userland strings before allocating the buffer
(using user_strlcpy()).

we use a uint16 size internally (and that has to include the length of
the trace_entry structure, too.
* We now track how many entries have been written to the log during the
runtime.

* "traced" command:
- Was printing one more entry than asked to.
- Fixed broken index handling. They were starting at 0, but the last
one was sEntries nevertheless. We consistently let them start at 1,
now. 0 can be passed as special index, causing the last entries to
be printed.
- Added options "backward"/"forward" which will print the entries
preceding respectively succeeding the ones printed on the previous
invocation. The command is continuable in this case, i.e. simply
pressing RET afterwards will reinvoke the command, allowing for
comfortable scrolling through a long list of entries.
- Added detailed usage message.
git-svn-id: file:///srv/svn/repos/haiku/haiku/trunk@23607 a95241bf-73f2-0310-859d-f6bbb57e9c96
since that's seriously unhealthy.
* Added TODO that uninitialized entries must not be discarded.
git-svn-id: file:///srv/svn/repos/haiku/haiku/trunk@23599 a95241bf-73f2-0310-859d-f6bbb57e9c96
invoke_debugger_command() is now automatically preceded by
"usage: <command name>", so the string passed to
add_debugger_command_etc() shouldn't contain it anymore.
git-svn-id: file:///srv/svn/repos/haiku/haiku/trunk@23584 a95241bf-73f2-0310-859d-f6bbb57e9c96
add_debugger_command(), but additionally takes parameters "usage"
and "flags".
* Added add_debugger_command_alias() which creates another name for an
existing command.
* Added print_debugger_command_usage() to print a command's usage.
* invoke_debugger_command() intercepts invocations with "--help" and
prints the command's usage text, if it is known. If unknown, the
command will be called normally.
* Made use of the new functions in debug.cpp.
git-svn-id: file:///srv/svn/repos/haiku/haiku/trunk@23573 a95241bf-73f2-0310-859d-f6bbb57e9c96
a command is executed anymore. Instead the least recently used
temporary variable is overwritten, if there's no free slot for a new
temporary variable.
* Removed the special handling for the command result variable ("_"). It
just works like any other temporary variable, now.
* Individual temporary variables can be removed (e.g. using the "unset"
command).
* Added unset_all_debug_variables() and "unset_all" command to unset
all persistent and temporary variables.
* Removed remove_all_temporary_debug_variables and renamed
remove_debug_variable() to unset_debug_variable().
git-svn-id: file:///srv/svn/repos/haiku/haiku/trunk@23568 a95241bf-73f2-0310-859d-f6bbb57e9c96
paging support to KDL (but not the on-screen debug output for now).
* Defaults to "on", use the new "paging" KDL command to turn it off (or on
again).
* When pressing 'q' while it is waiting for a key, it will now eat the rest
of the commands output (helpful for slow screen output of a large data set).
git-svn-id: file:///srv/svn/repos/haiku/haiku/trunk@23566 a95241bf-73f2-0310-859d-f6bbb57e9c96
* Fixed the usage text of the "help" KDL command.
* Made the "ambiguous command" warning shorter, so that it will still fit in
the exception buffer.
git-svn-id: file:///srv/svn/repos/haiku/haiku/trunk@23565 a95241bf-73f2-0310-859d-f6bbb57e9c96
* Fixed removing temporary variables (they would always be removed except one
after the first command).
git-svn-id: file:///srv/svn/repos/haiku/haiku/trunk@23555 a95241bf-73f2-0310-859d-f6bbb57e9c96
debugger expression language. By default it reads a uint32 value.
Another target size (1, 2, 4, or 8 bytes) can be specified in braces
after the "*" (e.g. "*{2}address" for uint16).
git-svn-id: file:///srv/svn/repos/haiku/haiku/trunk@23551 a95241bf-73f2-0310-859d-f6bbb57e9c96
* The kernel debugger does now define some temporary variables when
entered (current thread and team, etc.).
git-svn-id: file:///srv/svn/repos/haiku/haiku/trunk@23549 a95241bf-73f2-0310-859d-f6bbb57e9c96
that is a little more powerful than BeOS'. It features:
- Persistent and temporary uint64 variables. The former kind is set
only by the user. The latter (those prefixed "_") can be set
automatically by commands, thus e.g. making it easier to access
members of a dumped structure. They are unset when the next command
is invoked. The special temporary variable "_" is defined as a
command's return value.
- Expressions can contain nested command invocations using brackets
("[ ... ]").
- Command lines are parsed by the expression parser, too. They can
contain command invocations (in brackets) and expressions (in
parentheses).
* Added debugger commands:
- expr: Evaluates the given expression and prints the result.
- unset: Undefines a variable.
- vars: Prints the values of all defined variables.
* Moved debugger command code into its own source file.

when a pattern was involved).
* alloc_tracing_buffer() no longer allocates anything when you ask for
a zero byte buffer.
* Fixed warning.
git-svn-id: file:///srv/svn/repos/haiku/haiku/trunk@23533 a95241bf-73f2-0310-859d-f6bbb57e9c96
* Don't execute a command anymore, if the given prefix is ambiguous.
* Added tab completion for commands.
* Added on-the-fly help while typing a command line. It is triggered
by pressing tab at a position after the space following the command.
It is implemented by calling the command with argument "--help", which
doesn't work yet with most commands, but some already print their
usage in this case.
git-svn-id: file:///srv/svn/repos/haiku/haiku/trunk@23521 a95241bf-73f2-0310-859d-f6bbb57e9c96
now, not the number of entries shown (much more usable this way).
* Added missing license.
git-svn-id: file:///srv/svn/repos/haiku/haiku/trunk@23520 a95241bf-73f2-0310-859d-f6bbb57e9c96
though there was nothing to do (if 'diff' was larger than 'needed').
* Improved KDL command output.
* Added debug output to the allocation functions.
* Minor cleanup.
git-svn-id: file:///srv/svn/repos/haiku/haiku/trunk@23491 a95241bf-73f2-0310-859d-f6bbb57e9c96
* Added function to allocate space in the buffer.
* Dump() now fills a buffer instead of printing its data directly.
* This allows the new "#pattern" argument of the "traced" command to
work. When you're using that, the index of the trace entry is printed
out, too, so that you can then get a full dump around the hits.
* Added an AddDump() method to the AbstractTraceEntry class so that
there is no need to call the inherited function anymore.
* Minor cleanup.
git-svn-id: file:///srv/svn/repos/haiku/haiku/trunk@23479 a95241bf-73f2-0310-859d-f6bbb57e9c96
will not accept if the allocator returns NULL and crashes instead
(ie. not compiling in tracing would have crashed if some module tried
to use it).
* Added total entries count to the KDL command output.
* Fixed computing the start index of the KDL command.
git-svn-id: file:///srv/svn/repos/haiku/haiku/trunk@23460 a95241bf-73f2-0310-859d-f6bbb57e9c96
* Implemented an optional tracing layer that can be used in the kernel.
Nice to use if you don't have serial output or need something that doesn't
slow down the system as much.

23139 into trunk, with roughly the following changes (for details svn
log the branch):
* The int 99 syscall handler is now fully in assembly.
* Added a sysenter/sysexit handler and use it on Pentiums that support
it (via commpage).
* Got rid of i386_handle_trap(). A bit of functionality was moved into
the assembly handler which now uses a jump table to call C functions
handling the respective interrupt.
* Some optimizations to get user debugger support code out of the
interrupt handling path.
* Introduced a thread::flags fields which allows to skip handling of
rare events (signals, user debug enabling/disabling) on the
common interrupt handling path.
* Got rid of the explicit iframe stack. The iframes can still be
retrieved by iterating through the stack frames.
* Made the commpage an architecture independent feature. It's used for
the real time data stuff (instead of creating a separate area).
* The x86 CPU modules can now provide processor optimized versions for
common functions (currently memcpy() only). They are used in the
kernel and are provided to the userland via commpage entries.
* Introduced build system feature allowing easy use of C structure
member offsets in assembly code.
Changes after merging:
* Fixed merge conflict in src/system/kernel/arch/x86/arch_debug.cpp
(caused by refactoring and introduction of "call" debugger command).
git-svn-id: file:///srv/svn/repos/haiku/haiku/trunk@23370 a95241bf-73f2-0310-859d-f6bbb57e9c96
passes that information on to the kernel. This should fix wrong bytes per row with
certain resolutions and graphics cards.
* The boot loader now recognizes 15 bit modes that are advertised as 16 bit modes.
This should fix wrong colors in 16 bit modes on some cards.
* Reenabled setting MTRR for VESA mode - don't remember why I disabled it, but it
works fine on my test machines.
git-svn-id: file:///srv/svn/repos/haiku/haiku/trunk@23006 a95241bf-73f2-0310-859d-f6bbb57e9c96
serial output, and puts it into the new kernel_args::debug_output field.
* syslog_init() will now check if there is anything in kernel_args::debug_output
and will put that into the syslog buffer.
* dump_block() now also prints an offset.
* Fixed warning in mmu.cpp.
git-svn-id: file:///srv/svn/repos/haiku/haiku/trunk@23003 a95241bf-73f2-0310-859d-f6bbb57e9c96
the blue screen was initialized - blue_screen_enter() now returns wether
or not it has been initialized already (there will only be serial output
in that case).
git-svn-id: file:///srv/svn/repos/haiku/haiku/trunk@22491 a95241bf-73f2-0310-859d-f6bbb57e9c96
dprintf() with the exception that it doesn't write anything to the
syslog. The reason is that syslog_write() releases a semaphore and can
therefore not be invoked when the thread spinlock is held.

to the private VM types are including vm_types.h now.
* Removed vm_page, vm_area, vm_cache, and vm_address_space typedefs; it's
cleaner this way, and the actual types are only used in C++ files now,
anyway.
* And that caused changes in many files...
* Made commpage.h self-containing.
* Minor cleanup.
git-svn-id: file:///srv/svn/repos/haiku/haiku/trunk@22329 a95241bf-73f2-0310-859d-f6bbb57e9c96
When loading the driver settings the defaults don't override the
previous variable values anymore.
git-svn-id: file:///srv/svn/repos/haiku/haiku/trunk@21654 a95241bf-73f2-0310-859d-f6bbb57e9c96
also works for partial matches (which for example broke "running" and "ready"
when you only entered a part of it).
* Renamed the global args pointer to sArguments.

Reversed arguments in kernel settings file, now you only need to uncomment a line
to get the non-default setting. Explained default setting in comments.
git-svn-id: file:///srv/svn/repos/haiku/haiku/trunk@20907 a95241bf-73f2-0310-859d-f6bbb57e9c96
sets a fault handler, so that an invalid memory access while executing
the command (address typos always do the trick :-) won't result in
another KDL session on top of the current one, which wouldn't even be
"cont"able.
All pieces of code setting a fault handler do now save and reset the
previous one, so that e.g. a user_memcpy() in a debugger command doesn't
disturb the mechanism.
git-svn-id: file:///srv/svn/repos/haiku/haiku/trunk@20500 a95241bf-73f2-0310-859d-f6bbb57e9c96
{set,clear}_debugger_{break,watch}point(), allowing to set/clear break
and watchpoints for the calling team. When a break/watchpoint is hit,
the team enters the debugger. Handy in situations when the program in
question can't really be started in a debugger (or it would be
complicated to do so). The functions work only as long as no debugger is
installed for the team.
We clear the arch specific team and thread debug infos now, when a new
debugger is installed, thus clearing break- and watchpoints.
