* 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.

that can unlock the mutex, so one bit is sufficient.
* Added cutex_init_etc() which has an additional "flags" parameter.
The only specifyable flag is CUTEX_FLAG_CLONE_NAME, which causes the
function to strdup() the given name and free() its copy in
cutex_destroy().
* cutex_destroy() does now unblock waiting threads.

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.

the selecting thread, which has obviously no effect.
* Changed select_info::events to vint32. It is now updated atomically.
This removes a race condition when concurrent threads would notify at
the same time.
git-svn-id: file:///srv/svn/repos/haiku/haiku/trunk@25273 a95241bf-73f2-0310-859d-f6bbb57e9c96
* Made the pointers const.
* Changed how the ARP module maintains its arp_entry::request_buffer: it
now uses the atomic_pointer*() functions to make sure there is no race
condition, and it's deleted only once.
* Getting an ARP entry would return uninitialized data, if the entry hadn't
been resolved yet.

64-bit safe version of atomic_test_and_set() for pointers:
atomic_pointer_test_and_set().

kernel this way).

* Changed from paranoia on/off to levels. Adjusted the macros to take a
level argument.
git-svn-id: file:///srv/svn/repos/haiku/haiku/trunk@25215 a95241bf-73f2-0310-859d-f6bbb57e9c96
* Added "mode" parameter to set_paranoia_check(), which specifies
whether the check is supposed to already exist/not exist yet. This
allows for, as it turns out, very useful additional tests. Added
{ADD,UPDATE}_PARANOIA_CHECK macros that imply the used "mode"
parameter.
* PARANOIA_SLOT_COUNT was accidentally redefined in the source file.
* Fixed remove_paranoia_check(). It didn't remove anything.
git-svn-id: file:///srv/svn/repos/haiku/haiku/trunk@25207 a95241bf-73f2-0310-859d-f6bbb57e9c96
* Added capture_tracing_stack_trace() which allocates space in the
tracing buffer and captures the stack trace according to the given
parameters.
* Added TraceOutput::PrintStackTrace() to print a stack trace thus
created.
* Added TraceEntry::DumpStackTrace() callback which is supposed to print
a stack trace for the entry, if it can do that.
* Added "--stacktrace" switch to the "traced" command, which causes the
stack traces for all entries that have one to be printed as well.
git-svn-id: file:///srv/svn/repos/haiku/haiku/trunk@25205 a95241bf-73f2-0310-859d-f6bbb57e9c96
* Added support for non-published condition variables. One has to call
Init() on those, and add entries directly with the
ConditionVariable::Add() method.
git-svn-id: file:///srv/svn/repos/haiku/haiku/trunk@25110 a95241bf-73f2-0310-859d-f6bbb57e9c96
* Made the object pointer passed to thread_prepare_to_block() const, so
that strings can be passed without casting. Passing a string could
maybe be made a convention for THREAD_BLOCK_TYPE_OTHER.

respective Private* base class.
* Changed sigwait() and sigsuspend() to use thread_block() instead of a
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.
git-svn-id: file:///srv/svn/repos/haiku/haiku/trunk@25099 a95241bf-73f2-0310-859d-f6bbb57e9c96
- If the hook of the timer we're cancelling is currently being
executed, we do now wait till it is finished. This is how the BeBook
specifies the function to behave.
- Periodic timers would not be cancelled, if their hook was being
invoked at the same time, since they weren't in the queue during
that time.
- Since we know the CPU on which the timer is scheduled (timer::cpu),
we don't have to look through any other CPU queue to find it.
- Fixed the return value. It should report whether the timer had
already fired, and was not always doing that.
* Added private add_timer() flag B_TIMER_ACQUIRE_THREAD_LOCK. It causes
the thread spinlock to be acquired before the event hook is called.
cancel_timer() doesn't wait for timers with the flag set. Instead we
check in the timer interrupt function after acquiring the thread
spinlock whether the timer was cancelled in the meantime. Calling
cancel_timer() with the thread spinlock being held does thus avoid any
race conditions and won't deadlock, if the event hook needs to acquire
the thread spinlock, too. This feature proves handy for some kernel
internal needs.
* The scheduler uses a B_TIMER_ACQUIRE_THREAD_LOCK timer now and
cancel_timer() instead of the no longer needed
_local_timer_cancel_event().

additional filtering. This way other commands can print tracing output
with special filtering.

and defines the macros needed by them.
* Renamed syscall sys_vm_map_file() to _kern_map_file() and changed the
path to an FD parameter. Changed vm_map_file() accordingly and
adjusted the kernel ELF loader and the runtime loader.
* Added syscall _kern_unmap_memory().
* Added bool unmapAddressRange parameter to vm_create_anonymous_area()
and map_backing_store(). If true and the address specification is
B_EXACT_ADDRESS, all areas in the specified address range will be
deleted (unless an area is covered only partially).
* Introduced B_SHARED_AREA flag, which is set on areas that have been
created by {vm,_user}_map_file() with REGION_NO_PRIVATE_MAP. When
fork()ing those areas won't be copied CoW, but rather be cloned. This
is needed for mmap() MAP_SHARED.
* {vm,_user}_map_file() also accept an FD argument < 0, in which case an
anonymous area is created.
* Implemented mmap() and munmap(). Currently there's the restriction
that we can't partially unmap areas. Otherwise the functions should be
rather compliant. We also support the non-POSIX extension
MAP_ANONYMOUS.

That would explain why syscall restarts were broken. In fact there's no
reason to check the flag at all, since we know we set it.
ftp appears to work again.

ATM.
* Changed common_fcntl() to also work for non-vnode-based FDs. Only the
operations that require a vnode do fail now. F_SETFL uses the new
fd_ops::set_flags() if available, falling back to the vnode respective
operation.
* Changed some direct accesses to file_descriptor::u::vnode. It was safe
in those cases, but might not be anymore if we ever change fd_vnode().
ftp can at least connect to servers again, now, but apparently we still
have a problem with syscall restarts -- downloads fail after one second,
when the timer goes off.

syscall_restart_ioctl_is_restarted() to syscall_restart_is_restarted,
IoctlSyscallFlagUnsetter to SyscallFlagUnsetter, and
IoctlSyscallRestartWrapper to SyscallRestartWrapper, as they are no
longer only used for ioctl().
* Removed unused syscall_restart_ioctl_handle_post().
* Made SyscallRestartWrapper a lot fancier. Instead of storing a
reference to the result value, it stores the value itself, and it
features all the interesting operators that make it appear like that
value. This simplifies the use of the class quite a bit.
* THREAD_FLAGS_SYSCALL is now set for all socket function and the
read[v](), write[v]() syscalls.
* Added is_syscall() function and net_stack hook to the net stack.
* Removed "kernel" parameter from all net_stack_interface and net_socket
module hooks. They aren't need any longer, since is_syscall() can be
used instead.

- The net_stack driver is no longer used. Instead we have a kernel
module which is directly used by syscall implementations in the
kernel. I.e. we no longer tunnel those functions through ioctls, but
have normal syscalls.
- Removed the superfluous net starter module.
- Implemented the FDTYPE_SOCKET type file_descriptors, that is sockets
are no longer vnode based.
- Adjusted libnetwork (the socket function implementations)
accordingly.
- Adjusted netstat accordingly.
* Socket module:
- Implemented socketpair().
- Added "kernel" parameter to the control hook. Quite a few more hooks
would actually need the parameter, but I didn't change those yet,
since that would probably also require changes to the protocol
module interface.
git-svn-id: file:///srv/svn/repos/haiku/haiku/trunk@24908 a95241bf-73f2-0310-859d-f6bbb57e9c96

handle uncompressed runs.
* Compress the RGB channels separately for improved efficiency.

* pipefs is no longer mounted. Will remove the superfluous code soon.
git-svn-id: file:///srv/svn/repos/haiku/haiku/trunk@24823 a95241bf-73f2-0310-859d-f6bbb57e9c96
- Moved most file_system_module_info hooks into separate structures.
Those that operate on mounted volumes to fs_volume_ops, those
operating on a vnode to fs_vnode_ops.
- Got rid of the fs_volume, fs_cookie, fs_vnode typedefs. We use void*
again.
- Instead of a void* volume and node cookie hooks are passed a
fs_volume and fs_vnode structure pointer, which contain the cookie
and an ops pointer (fs_volume a few more things).
- The VFS {new,publish,get,...}_vnode() functions take a fs_volume*
instead of the volume ID. So does vfs_get_fs_node_from_path().
- Added type and flags arguments to publish_vnode() and the
get_vnode() hook and removed the type argument from lookup() hook.
Added vnode::type using formerly unused bits to store the node type.
Simplified a few things in the VFS due to the now always available
node type.
- Added fs_volume_ops::{create,delete}_sub_vnode() and
fs_vnode_ops::get_super_vnode() hooks. They are used to support file
system layers, e.g. allowing to extend an FS not supporting BeOS
attribute with attribute support. Needs some more work in the VFS.
- Added fs_vnode_ops::create_special_node() hook for creating special
nodes (e.g. FIFOs).
* Adjusted the built-in file systems and BFS according to the interface
changes. Removed all other FSs from the image for the time being.
We'll see whether further API changes are necessary before porting
them.
* Adjusted the bfs_shell accordingly.
* Implemented create_special_node() in rootfs to support special nodes.
* Added support for FIFOs:
- Added syscall _kern_create_fifo() (used by mkfifo()), which creates
a special node (type S_IFIFO) in the respective file system.
- When a special node is published the VFS creates a respective sub
node. Currently only FIFOs are supported.
- Added a little support for FIFO subnodes by using functionality from
the pipefs.
- Added mkfifo to the image. It can create FIFOs in the rootfs, but
the FIFOs aren't really usable ATM, since they still work like
pipes, i.e. readers and writers need to have them open at the same
time.
* Some smaller changes in the VFS:
- Made the *_CALL macros nicer to use (vargs).
- Refactored FS entry lookup into new function lookup_dir_entry().
- create_vnode() no longer just calls the FS create() hook. First it
looks up the entry and uses open_vnode(), if it already exists. This
is necessary for two reasons: 1) The FS might not support create()
while still allowing to open() entries. 2) When the FS has other
layers on to of it (or the respective node) it might not be
responsible for opening the node.

* Implemented RLE compression for the boot splash images, resulting in
smaller kernel and boot loader.
* Only the boot loader contains the RLE compressed images, the decompressed
buffer for the icons is passed to the kernel via kernel args.

The dividing line is back although with a little more spacing. Also the icon
spacing is a little increased and I added a subtle outline as well as a little
brighter background for the active icon look. The placement logic is now not
independant of each other anymore, otherwise I couldn't center both images
as a unit. But only the vertical placement is affected.
Comments as always on the commit mailing list... :-)

* Added {Create|Delete}Device() analogous to {Create|Delete}FileDevice
* Added a small DeviceWatcher class that reacts to entry creation/removal
* Implemented a way to start/stop node monitoring
* Start watching for devices after the boot volume has been mounted and the
the second initial scan was run
The disk device manager now creates and scans a device when a "raw" node is
published and deletes the device on removal. This makes hot-plugging of disk
devices (for example memory sticks using usb_disk) work. Their partitions will
be scanned and published so they can be mounted. Somehow the removal of the
partitions does not yet work however, any insights are welcome.

the icons are centered.
* The boot loader and kernel now use the placement info that
generate_boot_screen now generates.
* Made the code that draws the images handle the case where any of the images
is larger than the frame buffer.
* All drawing functions need to know the image width (analogous for bytes per
row).

item entry.
* The bios_ia32 video platform code now stores the available VESA modes in
the new vesa_modes kernel_args field.
* When configuring a VESA mode via settings file, it's no longer needed to
specify the exact mode - the closest available mode is now used. This should
help with bug #1962.
* frame_buffer_console_init() now also creates a boot_item for the VESA modes
in the kernel_args.
* The VESA accelerant now filters the mode list to only contain modes that
are actually supported.
* Moved non-shared vesa driver data into its own file vesa_private.h.

- Added a "root" vnode to the io_context. It is used for resolving
paths and converting nodes to paths instead of sRoot. Some more
passing around of io_context structures was necessary.
- Introduced a new lock sIOContextRootLock to protect
io_context::root. The current uses of io_context::io_mutex
(put_vnode(), remove_vnode() while holding it) looked too suspicious
to use that mutex in vnode_path_to_vnode().
- Added _kern_change_root() syscall and chroot() libroot function.
- Added chroot coreutils program to the image. Funnily it seems to be
much easier to set up a little jail than under Linux (just copy
bash and libroot.so into respective subdirs; mount another pipefs
if you want pipe support).
With Haiku allowing direct access to directories via inode IDs
jailing is obviously not very secure at the moment.
- Added /var/empty to the image. It will be the chroot target for ssh.
* Changed vfs.cpp:get_cwd() so that the io_context::io_mutex is no
longer held when calling dir_vnode_to_path().
git-svn-id: file:///srv/svn/repos/haiku/haiku/trunk@24673 a95241bf-73f2-0310-859d-f6bbb57e9c96
- The kernel stores the group IDs in the team structure. They are
correctly inherited on fork() and load_image_etc().
- Implemented getgroups() for real, i.e. it retrieves the groups
associated with the process.
- Implemented setgroups(), initgroups() and (the BSDish)
getgrouplist(). The latter two read the group information from the
"group database" /etc/group (if existing).
- Change the BIND port config, since we do have getgrouplist() now.
* The set-uid feature was broken when the path to the executable was
relative, since we used stat(), which, in the kernel, uses the kernel
IO context.
