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).

exit status of (non-main) threads of a team. Fixes bug #1644.

one too low in comparison with BeOS (ie. the end pointer was inclusive, now
it's exclusive).
* Moved static functions fill_thread_info(), and {send|receive}_data_etc() to
the private function section.

* Fixed warnings with debug output turned on.
* Shuffled functions around a bit.
* Minor cleanup.

vfs_select.h, respectively moved most of it into the new kernel
private header wait_for_objects.h.
* Added new experimental API functions wait_for_objects[_etc](). They
work pretty much like poll(), but also for semaphores, ports, and
threads.
* Removed the "ref" parameter from notify_select_events() and the
select_sync_pool functions as well as from fd_ops::fd_[de]select(). It
is no longer needed. The FS interface select() hook still has it,
though -- the VFS will always pass 0.
* de]select_fd() take a select_info* instead of a select_sync* + ref
pair, now. Added respective functions for semaphores, ports, and
threads.

the death stack and reacquiring the thread lock in which another thread
could snatch our stack that we were still going to use for the
scheduler. Now we've got a second spinlock that we can hold while
releasing a semaphore.

arguments into vm.h.
* This should fix the broken build from earlier - thanks Stefano for the note!
* That also allowed to clean some other includes a bit.

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.

is used instead of death_entry for team::dead_children.
* Added team::{stopped,continued}_children, which, analoguously to
dead_children, are used to track the state of stopped/continued
children.
* A team does have a job_control_entry, which is allocated at team
creation time. It will be inserted into the parent's
{stopped,continued}_children lists as the team's main thread is
stopped/continued and removed when waitpid() retrieves the child
state. When the team dies the entry is detached from the team and goes
into the parent's dead_children list.
* Removed the wait_for_any field from team_dead_children. It was solely
used to avoid deletion of the contained entries in certain situations.
wait_for_child() (the waitpid() backend) always deletes an entry now,
regardless of whether other threads are waiting; that's in
accordance with the waidpid() specification. wait_for_thread() removes
the entry only, if the caller is the parent of the respective team.
* Introduced team_set_job_control_state() which performes the job
control entry transitions between the respective lists and wakes up
threads waiting in wait_for_child(). It is invoked on team death and
when the team's main thread receives job control signals.
* Reorganized wait_for_child(). It handles WCONTINUED and WUNTRACED now,
too. Removed a block that interpreted the supplied ID as thread ID.
* Added missing parts in waitpid().
Job control starts to work, though it seems to have some glitches.

variable. Due to C code including the header I had to turn it from and
aggregated member to a pointer. I'm very close to starting to convert
all remaining .c to .cpp files. :-/
* Got rid of the "waiters" field. It was only written, never read.

* Removed left-over commented C implementation.
* It is now possible for a thread to wait for more than one condition
variable at a time.
* Made waiting for condition variables optionally interruptable.
* Renamed Notify() method to NotifyAll() and added a NotifyOne(), so
that it is now possible to wake up only one of the waiting threads.
Pretty much untested at the moment.
