#GSoC: 2010 Project
Goal:
---
#Roadmap
##Progress
###Preparation Phase:
Understanding how gnumach ticks [ at least the parts related to the project ]
---
####28th of April - 5th of May:
* Reading the paging in code in gnumach.
* Reading the libpager code, and the multipage patch.
* Reading the translators code, only the part implementing the external pager interface.
####5th of May - 12th of May:
* Reading the paging out code in gnumach.
* Understanding IPC in gnumach and reading some code.
* Reading "[gnu_src]/kern/sched_prim.c"
####12th of May - 19th of May:
* Finishing the leftover code in some of the previous phases.
* Building a big and a more clear picture of how gnumach ticks [ wiring things together ].
####19th of May - 23th of May:
* Off [College related-activities].
---
###Coding Phase:
Stage 1:
####24th of May - 26th of May:
* Read the freeBSD multipages implementation.
* Basic Modifications of gnumach's code.
* err.. scratch this step. It's easier to work on porting OSF Mach's implementation of multi-pages.
####26th of May - 28th of May:
* port OSF Mach's clustered pagein during 'page faults' ( [src]/vm/vm_fault.c )
* port "cluster_size" attribute of memory objects from OSF Mach.
* port "behavior" attribute of vm_map entries from OSF Mach.
####29th of May - 2nd of June:
* Off ( Oral Exams )
####2nd of May - 4th of June:
* Finish the port of the previous phase.
---
Stage 2:
####5th of June - 11th of June:
* Modify the API of the libpager to support multipages.
---
Stage 3:
####12th of June - 26th of June:
* Modify the of the translators code to implement the new libpager interface.
---
Stage 4:
####27th of June - 30th of June:
* port OSF Mach's clustered pageout ( [src]/vm/vm_pageout.c )
---
Stage 5:
####1st of July - 4th of July:
* Fix the bootmem_allocator patch along with my proposal.
---
Stage 6:
### Testing Phase:
---
### Exams Schedule:
#### Final exams :
Starts at 12th of June for two weeks [maybe 2 or 3 days longer than this , not sure]
---
Stage 1:
* clustered_paging.diff patch http://lists.gnu.org/archive/html/bug-hurd/2010-06/msg00024.html
TODO:
* Update the headers of the modified files in GNU Mach to reflect the fact that they were ported from OSF Mach.
* Implement madvise() in glibc.
* Update the documentation of GNU Mach with the new interfaces.
* Revise and finish the code related to default_memory_manager management in GNU Mach.
* Port the vm_page "clustered" attribute. [ to mark that the page wasn't requested but was paged-in as part of the cluster ].
