2014-12-16ipc: tune size of cached kernel message buffersJustus Winter
The previous limit was 256 bytes. That seems a little crummy by todays standards, and we are frequently sending bigger packets (e.g. every RPC containing a string_t on Hurd). Use the page size for IKM_SAVED_KMSG_SIZE to make sure the page is pinned to a single processor. * ipc/ipc_kmsg.h (IKM_SAVED_KMSG_SIZE): Define to `PAGE_SIZE'.
2014-12-15Make spl7 just clear IF instead of setting the PIC maskSamuel Thibault
* i386/i386/spl.S (spl7): Just set curr_ipl and cli. (splx) [MACH_KDB || MACH_TTD]: When curr_ipl is 7, make sure that IF is cleared. (splx): When staying at ipl7, do not enable interrupts. (spl) [MACH_KDB || MACH_TTD]: When curr_ipl is 7, make sure that IF is cleared. (spl): When new ipl is 7, branch to spl7. * i386/i386/locore.S (TIME_TRAP_UENTRY, TIME_TRAP_SENTRY): Save flags, and restore them instead of blindly using sti.
2014-12-11Ship missing fileSamuel Thibault
* Makefrag.am (EXTRA_DIST): Add kern/task_notify.cli.
2014-12-09include: add X_IMPORTS to ipc definitionsJustus Winter

2014-12-09kern: provide notifications about new tasksJustus Winter
These notifications are sent to the port registered via `register_new_task_notification' and provide a robust parental relation between tasks to a userspace server. * Makefrag.am: Add task_notify.defs. * include/mach/gnumach.defs: Add register_new_task_notification. * include/mach/task_notify.defs: New file. * kern/task.c (new_task_notification): New variable.

2014-12-09Retire procedure `old_mach_port_get_receive_status'Justus Winter
Retire the compatibility RPC `old_mach_port_get_receive_status' that works like `mach_port_get_receive_status' but returns an `old_mach_port_status' object that lacks the `mps_seqno' field. Do not remove the type yet, so we do not break anyones build. The RPC stubs currently distributed with the glibc require it. * include/mach/mach_port.defs (old_mach_port_get_receive_status): Drop RPC. * include/mach/mach_types.defs (old_mach_port_status_t): Drop type. * include/mach/port.h (old_mach_port_status_t): Add note to remove this for the 1.6 release. * ipc/mach_port.c (old_mach_port_get_receive_status): Drop function.
2014-12-07Fix pthread_create warning on translator terminationSamuel Thibault
This was due to task_terminate not actually properly suspending threads before disable the task port, which was thus preventing pthread_create from being able to create a stack. Thanks Gabriele Giacone for finding out a reproducer of this. * kern/task.h (task_hold_locked): New declaration. * kern/task.c (task_hold): Move the locked part of the code into... (task_hold_locked): ... new function. (task_terminate): Call task_hold_locked just before deactivating the task. Call ipc_task_disable after waiting for threads to actually suspend with task_dowait.
2014-12-01kern: disable all counters by defaultJustus Winter
Make all five non-conditional counters conditional ones. Casual checking revealed that the hits-to-miss ratio is excellent. * kern/counters.c: Make all counters conditional. * kern/counters.h: Likewise. * kern/ipc_sched.c: Likewise. * kern/sched_prim.c: Likewise.
2014-11-28include: make `mach_port_t' payload-awareJustus Winter

2014-11-13Add nodma optionsSamuel Thibault
Some very slow qemu instances would eventually trigger DMA timeouts, let's give a way to disable DMA there, it does not actually slow down operations anyway. * linux/src/drivers/block/ide.h (ide_drive_s): Add nodma field. * linux/src/drivers/block/ide.c (do_identify): Do not call dmaproc(ide_dma_check) when nodma is 1. (ide_setup): Add nodma option.

* Makefile.am (clib-routines.o): Refuse to link only when multiarch is detected.
2014-11-03Refuse to link against a libc with multiarch supportSamuel Thibault
We don't have support for this yet. * Makefile.am (clib-routines.o): Check for the presence of __init_cpu_features, and in such case refuse to continue.

This reverts commit b28e05e203e0739fa5db59c5af378b29eea7a232.
2014-10-10doc: restore section `Inherited Ports'Justus Winter
Previously, the section `Inherited Ports' was commented out. This was done, as the functionality was unused by the Hurd. The functions `mach_ports_register' and `mach_ports_lookup' were never removed, and are exposed to user space. This patch brings the documentation back and adds a remark at the top, that the section documents the original intentions for this interface. I chose bringing back the documentation over removing the functionality because I like to make use of it as a method for service discovery that is deliberately orthogonal to the way the service lookup is usually done in the Hurd. This can be used to implement robust low-level debugging facilities. * doc/mach.texi: Restore section `Inherited Ports'.
2014-10-01Add protected payloads to NEWSJustus Winter
2014-10-01ipc: provide the protected payload in ipc_kmsg_copyout_headerJustus Winter
* ipc/ipc_kmsg.c (ipc_kmsg_copyout_header): If a protected payload is set for the destination port, provide it in msgh_protected_payload. * ipc/mach_msg.c (mach_msg_trap): Likewise in the fast paths. * doc/mach.texi (Message Receive): Document message semantics with protected payloads.
2014-10-01include: define MACH_MSG_TYPE_PROTECTED_PAYLOADJustus Winter

2014-10-01ipc: add protected payloadJustus Winter
Add a field ip_protected_payload and a flag ip_has_protected_payload to struct ipc_port. Clear the protected payload when a receive port is moved from one ipc space to another. This is done to retain the old behavior of mach_msg, so that a port name is sent in the msgh_local_port field. If the new owner of that receive right wishes to use the protected payload mechanism, it has to be explicitly set again. * ipc/ipc_port.h (struct ipc_port): Add field ip_protected_payload. (ipc_port_set_protected_payload): Add function declaration. (ipc_port_clear_protected_payload): Likewise. (ipc_port_flag_protected_payload): Add accessor for the protected payload flag.

(ipc_port_print): Print protected_payload. (ipc_port_set_protected_payload): New function. (ipc_port_clear_protected_payload): Likewise. (ipc_port_destroy): Clear the payload when moving a receive port. * ipc/ipc_right.c (ipc_right_copyin): Likewise. (ipc_right_copyout): Likewise. * ipc/ipc_object.c (ipc_object_copyin_from_kernel): Likewise. * ipc/ipc_object.h (IO_BITS_PROTECTED_PAYLOAD): New bitmask. (IO_BITS_OTYPE): Adjust accordingly.

* ipc/ipc_table.h: Document that table sizes must be powers of two. * ipc/ipc_hash.c (IH_LOCAL_HASH): Use fast modulo operation.
2014-09-30kern: silence compiler warning about uninitialized variableJustus Winter
* kern/slab.c (kmem_cache_compute_sizes): Initialize optimal_size and assert that a size is selected.

2014-09-26kern: create send rights as they are inserted at bootstrap timeJustus Winter
Previously, it was impossible to hand e.g. the master device port to more than one bootstrap task. Fix this by creating the send right as it is inserted into the target task. * kern/bootstrap.c (bootstrap_create): Do not create the send rights here... (boot_script_insert_right): ... but here.

2014-09-06Make vm_map really ignore `address' when `anywhere' is trueSamuel Thibault
As vm_allocate does. * vm/vm_user.c (vm_map): When `anywhere' is true, set `address' to the minimum address of the `target_map'.

2014-08-30Tune pageout parametersSamuel Thibault

2014-08-22Even less magic-looking control valueNeal H. Walfield
* i386/i386at/com.c (comintr): Use 'A'-1 instead of '@'.
2014-08-22Support invoking the debugger over the serial consoleJustus Winter
* i386/i386at/com.c (comintr): Invoke the debugger if ctrl-alt-d is pressed. * i386/i386at/com.h (kdb_kintr): Add declaration.
2014-07-25Drop debugging printsSamuel Thibault
* i386/i386at/acpi.c (grub_machine_acpi_get_rsdpv2): Drop debugging prints.
2014-07-06Do not unmap page 0 when not neededSamuel Thibault
Since we need it to access some BIOS information, e.g. at ACPI shutdown. When the kernel VM is not starting at 0, there is already nothing mapped there in user tasks, anyway. * i386/i386at/model_dep.c (machine_init) [VM_MIN_KERNEL_ADDRESS != 0]: Do not call pmap_unmap_page_zero. * i386/intel/pmap.c (pmap_unmap_page_zero): Warn that unmapping page zero may break some BIOS functions.
