arch_vm_aspace_swap().
* The x86 implementation does now maintain a bit mask per
vm_translation_map_arch_info indicating on which CPUs the address
space is active. This allows flush_tmap() to avoid ICI for user
address spaces when the team isn't currently running on any other CPU.
In this context ICI is relatively expensive, particularly since we map
most pages via vm_map_page() and therefore invoke flush_tmap() pretty
much for every single page.
This optimization speeds up a "hello world" compilation about 20% on
my machine (KDEBUG turned off, freshly booted), but interestingly it
has virtually no effect on the "-j2" haiku build time.

* Introduced init_thread_debug_info() which is used instead of
clear_thread_debug_info() when the thread is created. The latter
requires former initialization.
* user_debug_thread_deleted() is now already invoked in thread_exit(),
not in the undertaker.

don't wait for memory or pages to become available. They fail
immediately instead.

include the guard pages. Adjusted the kernel and boot loader code
accordingly -- the guard pages size is added/not removed respectively.
The stack size passed to _kern_spawn_thread() is now the actually usable
size, and it is no longer possible to specify a size smaller than or
equal to the guard pages size.
* vm_create_anonymous_area(): Precommit two pages maximum -- a stack with
only one page usable size obviously doesn't need two pages.

This allows drivers to lock the memory outside of the original team context.
* create_area_etc() got a struct team as first argument, but that should have
been a team_id.
* Removed delete_area_etc() - there is already vm_delete_area() doing the same
thing.
* Renamed vm_get_address_space_by_id() to vm_get_address_space(), as there is
no other method of getting an address space.
* Removed erroneous white space.

* Missing backslash in UPDATE_THREAD_KERNEL_TIME() macro. Caused the
thread's kernel time never to be updated when the thread left the
kernel. The time would be added to the user time instead.
* Changed semantics of thread_at_kernel_exit(). It leaves interrupts
disabled when returning, now. All code using it would disable
interrupts afterwards anyway, and inbetween the thread could be
interrupted causing two more time updates (or actually not causing
them erroneously).
* The code in x86's interrupt handler entry (int_bottom) also checks
thread::in_kernel now, to determine whether the thread was already
considered to be in userland. This is necessary since the sysexit
instruction doesn't reenable interrupts, so that we have to do that
with the preceeding instruction. Hence an interrupt can occur
inbetween, which would incorrectly add the interrupt's kernel time
to the thread's user time.
* For userland threads team_create_thread_start() didn't invoke
thread_at_kernel_exit() or any equivalent. We do that in
arch_thread_enter_userspace() now.

B_DEBUG_SPINLOCK_CONTENTION is defined to 1. It typedefs spinlock to a
structure (thus breaking BeOS binary compatibility), containing a
counter which is incremented whenever a thread has to wait for the
spinlock.
* Added macros for spinlock initialization and access and changed
code using spinlocks accordingly. This breaks compilation for BeOS --
the macros should be defined in the respective compatibility wrappers.
* Added generic syscall to get the spinlock counters for the thread and
the team spinlocks.

a dedicated death stack. We might consider moving more cleanup work to
the undertaker, but that seems a little more involved.

address space that is fully locked and marked B_KERNEL_AREA. It can
thus be accessed by the kernel without additional checks.
* For each userland thread we do create a user_thread structure in that
area. The structure is accessible from userland via TLS, using the
private get_user_thread() function.
* Introduced private userland functions [un]defer_signals(). They can be
used to cheaply disable/re-enable signal delivery. They use the
user_thread::defer_signals/pending_signals fields which are
checked/updated by the kernel.

which allow to specify the stack size or the stack to be used for the
new user thread.

* Trivial adjustments of code using mutexes. Mostly removing the
mutex_init() return value check.
* Added mutex_lock_threads_locked(), which is called with the threads
spinlock being held. The spinlock is released while waiting, of
course. This function is useful in cases where the existence of the
mutex object is ensured by holding the threads spinlock.
* Changed the two instances in the VFS code where an IO context of
another team needs to be locked to use mutex_lock_threads_locked().
Before it required a semaphore-based mutex implementation.

name, couldn't resist :-P). It's semantically equivalent to a mutex,
but doesn't need a semaphore (it uses thread blocking and a simple
queue instead). Initialization can't fail. In fact it is ready to use
without initialization when living in the bss segment, also in the
early boot process. It's as fast as a benaphore in cases of low lock
contention, and faster otherwise. Only disadvantage is the higher
immediate memory footprint of 16 bytes.
* Changed how the "thread" and "threads" debugger commands list the
objects they are waiting for. Cutexes are also included.

* Added RLIMIT_CORE case. We don't support core dumps, but setting them
to disabled shouldn't fail anyway.

condition variable.

thread_block(), thread_unblock(),...) that allow a thread to wait for
something without needing a semaphore or condition variable. It can
simply block and another thread can unblock it. Supports timeouts and
interrupting. Both semaphores and condition variables use this
common mechanism, now.
* Semaphores:
- Some simplifications due to the thread blocking mechanism.
- Changed locking order to sem -> thread. It was the other way around
before and when introducing the wait_for_objects() support I had
also introduced a situation where the locking was reverse, which
could potentially cause a dead lock on SMP systems.
- Instead of queueing thread structures, a semaphore queues
queued_thread entries now, which are created on the stack. The
thread::sem structure could thus be removed.
- Added sem_entry::net_count, which is sem_entry::count plus the
acquisition count of all waiting threads. This number is needed in
remove_thread_from_sem() and instead of computing it there we
maintain it.
- Fixed remove_thread_from_sem(). It would not unblock threads, if
the sem count was <= 0.
- Made sem::last_acquirer unconditional. It is actually needed for
sem_info::latest_holder. Fixed fill_sem_info() accordingly.
- Added some optional tracing output, though only via ktrace_printf().
* Condition variables:
- Could be simplified significantly through the use of the thread
blocking mechanism. Removed a good deal of unnecessary code.
- Moved the ConditionVariableEntry "flags" parameter from Wait() to
Add(), and adjusted all places where condition variables are used
accordingly.
* snooze() uses thread_block_with_timeout() instead of a semaphore.
* Simplified thread interrupting in the signal and user debugger code.
Instead of separate functions for threads waiting on a semaphore or
condititon variable, we only have a single thread_interrupt(), now.

ones) for wait_for_child(), which is notified when any job control
condition (child dead, stopped, continued) occurs. These events are
relatively rare anyway, and it simplifies the code.

* Added a new KDL command "calling" that you can use to get a list of
threads that have a specific function in their call chain.
* Removed extraneous white space.

as the death entries of a deceased processes that were in this group

for now).
* resume_thread() is now using that flag to be compatible with BeOS.
* This fixes the Terminal hanging on close.
git-svn-id: file:///srv/svn/repos/haiku/haiku/trunk@24045 a95241bf-73f2-0310-859d-f6bbb57e9c96
* Implemented automatic syscall restarts:
- A syscall can indicate that it has been interrupted and can be
restarted by setting a respective bit in thread::flags. It can
store parameters it wants to be preserved for the restart in
thread::syscall_restart::parameters. Another thread::flags bit
indicates whether it has been restarted.
- handle_signals() clears the restart flag, if the handled signal
has a handler function installed and SA_RESTART is not set. Another
thread flag (THREAD_FLAGS_DONT_RESTART_SYSCALL) can prevent syscalls
from being restarted, even if they could be (not used yet, but we
might want to use it in resume_thread(), so that we stay
behaviorally compatible with BeOS).
- The architecture specific syscall handler restarts the syscall, if
the restart flag is set. Implemented for x86 only.
- Added some support functions in the private <syscall_restart.h> to
simplify the syscall restart code in the syscalls.
- Adjusted all syscalls that can potentially be restarted accordingly.
- _user_ioctl() sets new thread flag THREAD_FLAGS_IOCTL_SYSCALL while
calling the underlying FS's/driver's hook, so that syscall restarts
can also be supported there.
* thread_at_kernel_exit() invokes handle_signals() in a loop now, as
long as the latter indicates that the thread shall be suspended, so
that after waking up signals received in the meantime will be handled
before the thread returns to userland. Adjusted handle_signals()
accordingly -- when encountering a suspending signal we don't check
for further signals.
* Fixed sigsuspend(): Suspending the thread and rescheduling doesn't
result in the correct behavior. Instead we employ a temporary
condition variable and interruptably wait on it. The POSIX test
suite test passes, now.
* Made the switch_sem[_etc]() behavior on interruption consistent.
Depending on when the signal arrived (before the call or when already
waiting) the first semaphore would or wouldn't be released. Now we
consistently release it.
* Refactored _user_{read,write}[v]() syscalls. Use a common function for
either pair. The iovec version doesn't fail anymore, if anything could
be read/written at all. It also checks whether a complete vector
could be read/written, so that we won't skip data, if the underlying
FS/driver couldn't read/write more ATM.
* Some refactoring in the x86 syscall handler: The int 99 and sysenter
handlers use a common subroutine to avoid code duplication.

function has the old behavior. When false, it just calls the scheduler
without any priority adjustment or other stuff.

This should be in line with all uses of scheduler_enqueue_in_run_queue() and
simplifies a few places where it is used.

its parent while still holding the team spinlock. We were racing with
wait_for_child(), since after the child invoked
team_set_job_control_state(), the parent thread could continue as soon
as the team spinlock was released. The SIGCHLD could thus arrive way
later and interrupt another syscall. This could be reproduced with the
compile_bench.sh script from time to time: When interrupted while
waiting for the next subprocess, the gcc frontend would delete a still
needed temporary file.
The whole thing is actually only a problem, because we don't support
automatic syscall restarts yet.

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).
