2015-05-29kern: fix argument handlingJustus Winter
Previously, the processor argument was not checked. If called with a non-processor argument (like a task), `processor' is set to NULL, triggering a page fault. Likewise for the other functions. * kern/processor.c (processor_get_assignment): Fix argument handling. * kern/task.c (task_get_assignment): Likewise. * kern/thread.c (thread_get_assignment): Likewise.
2015-05-23kern: avoid breaking the strict-aliasing rulesJustus Winter
* kern/exception.c (exception_parse_reply): Use `BAD_TYPECHECK'.
2015-05-22ipc: drop size parameter from `ipc_space_create'Justus Winter

2015-05-20ipc: undo manual inlining of `ipc_entry_X' functionsJustus Winter
Today we can rely on the compiler to inline functions. Undoing this manual optimization is a first step to replace the IPC tables. * ipc/mach_msg.c (mach_msg_trap): Undo the manual inlining of `ipc_entry_lookup', `ipc_entry_dealloc', and `ipc_entry_get'. * ipc/ipc_kmsg.c (ipc_kmsg_copyin_header, ipc_kmsg_copyout_header): Likewise. * kern/exception.c (exception_raise): Likewise. * kern/ipc_mig.c (fast_send_right_lookup): Likewise.

* kern/task.c (task_create): Gracefully handle resource shortage.
2015-05-19kern: import `macros.h' from x15Justus Winter
Import the macro definitions from the x15 kernel project, and replace all similar definitions littered all over the place with it. Importing this file will make importing code from the x15 kernel easier. We are already using the red-black tree implementation and the slab allocator from it, and we will import even more code in the near future. * kern/list.h: Do not define `structof', include `macros.h' instead. * kern/rbtree.h: Likewise. * kern/slab.c: Do not define `ARRAY_SIZE', include `macros.h' instead. * i386/grub/misc.h: Likewise. * i386/i386/xen.h: Do not define `barrier', include `macros.h' instead. * kern/macro_help.h: Delete file. Replaced by `macros.h'. * kern/macros.h: New file. * Makefrag.am (libkernel_a_SOURCES): Add new file, remove old file. * device/dev_master.h: Adopt accordingly. * device/io_req.h: Likewise. * device/net_io.h: Likewise. * i386/intel/read_fault.c: Likewise. * ipc/ipc_kmsg.h: Likewise. * ipc/ipc_mqueue.h: Likewise. * ipc/ipc_object.h: Likewise. * ipc/ipc_port.h: Likewise. * ipc/ipc_space.h: Likewise. * ipc/ipc_splay.c: Likewise. * ipc/ipc_splay.h: Likewise. * kern/assert.h: Likewise. * kern/ast.h: Likewise. * kern/pc_sample.h: Likewise. * kern/refcount.h: Likewise. * kern/sched.h: Likewise. * kern/sched_prim.c: Likewise. * kern/timer.c: Likewise. * kern/timer.h: Likewise. * vm/vm_fault.c: Likewise. * vm/vm_map.h: Likewise. * vm/vm_object.h: Likewise. * vm/vm_page.h: Likewise.
2015-05-02kern: fix commentJustus Winter
* kern/rbtree.h: Fix comment.
2015-04-24kern: avoid hardcoding the lowest priorityJustus Winter
The number of priorities has been changed from 32 to 50 in 6a234201081156e6d5742e7eeabb68418b518fad. * kern/syscall_subr.c (thread_depress_priority): Avoid hardcoding the lowest priority.
2015-04-23kern: disable stack allocation counters by defaultJustus Winter
Disable the stack allocation counters by default. Casual checking revealed that the hits-to-miss ratio is excellent. * kern/thread.c (stack_alloc_{hits,misses,max}): Move variables... * kern/counters.c: ... here, and add the usual counter prefix. * kern/counters.h: New declarations.
2015-02-25kern: inherit the name of the parent taskJustus Winter
* kern/task.c (task_create): Inherit the name of the parent task.
2015-02-20kern: improve assertJustus Winter
Use the ternary operator to implement `assert' like it is done in the glibc. The glibcs changelog does not mention the rationale behind this change, but doing the same seems to improve our IPC performance. * kern/assert.h (assert): Define macro using the ternary operator.
2015-02-20kern: reduce the size of `struct thread'Justus Winter
Reduce the size of `struct thread' by twelve bytes making it fit into exactly five cache lines (on 32-bit platforms). * kern/thread.h (struct thread): Group the state and all flags in a bitfield. (TH_EV_WAKE_ACTIVE, TH_EV_STATE): Provide macros that generate keys for synchronization primitives like `thread_wakeup'. * kern/thread.c (thread_halt, thread_dowait, thread_suspend): Use the new keys instead of addresses of fields for the synchronisation. * kern/ipc_sched.c (thread_handoff): Likewise. * kern/sched_prim.c (thread_invoke, thread_dispatch): Likewise.
2015-02-18kern: avoid #if 0ing out thread_collect_scanJustus Winter
Currently, `thread_collect_scan' does nothing because `pcb_collect' is a nop. Its body is exempt from compilation by means of the preprocessor. This is unfortunate as it increases the risk of bitrot, and we still need to pay the price of rate-limiting thread_collect_scan. * kern/thread.c (thread_collect_scan): Drop #if 0 around the body. * vm/vm_pageout.c (vm_pageout_scan): Do not call `consider_thread_collect' and document why.
2015-01-02kern: Fix typos in comments (found by codespell)Stefan Weil
Signed-off-by: Stefan Weil <sw@weilnetz.de>
2014-12-16kern: gracefully handle bogus sample pc sequence numberJustus Winter
If a sequence number larger than the sample control sequence number is supplied, `nsamples' becomes negative. Handle this gracefully. * kern/pc_sample.c (get_sampled_pcs): Handle bogus sequence number.
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. (task_create): Send new task notifications. (register_new_task_notification): Add server function. * kern/task_notify.cli: New file.
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.
2014-09-30kern: silence compiler warning about uninitialized variableJustus Winter
* kern/slab.c (kmem_cache_compute_sizes): Initialize optimal_size and assert that a size is selected.
2014-09-30kern: fix type of recompute_prioritiesJustus Winter
* kern/sched_prim.c (recompute_priorities): Fix type. * kern/sched_prim.h (recompute_priorities): Likewise.
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.
2014-06-11kern: set the name of the kernel task to 'gnumach'Justus Winter
* kern/taks.c (task_init): Set the name of the kernel task to 'gnumach'.

2014-04-30kern: include the MIG-generated server headers for MACHINE_SERVERJustus Winter
GNU MIG recently gained support for emitting x_server_routine declarations in the generated server header file. Using this declaration, the x_server_routine functions can be inlined into the ipc_kobject_server function. * kern/ipc_kobject.c: Include the MIG-generated server headers for the machine-dependent interfaces. (ipc_kobject_server): Drop the simple declaration of MACHINE_SERVER_ROUTINE. * i386/i386/machine_routines.h (MACHINE_SERVER_HEADER): New definition.
2014-04-13kern: set the name of tasks created during the bootstrapJustus Winter
* kern/bootstrap.c (boot_script_task_create): Set the name of newly created tasks.

2014-04-04Use explicit prototypes for struct dev_ops fieldsMarin Ramesa
* device/conf.h: Include <sys/types.h>, <mach/port.h>, <mach/vm_prot.h>. Predefine struct io_req, io_req_t and io_return_t. (dev_ops): Add explicit prototypes for d_open, d_close, d_read, d_write, d_getstat, d_setstat, d_mmap, d_port_death. (nulldev_open, nulldev_close, nulldev_read, nulldev_write, nulldev_getstat, nulldev_setstat, nulldev_portdeath): Add prototypes. (nomap): Fix prototype. * device/dev_name.c (nulldev_open, nulldev_close, nulldev_read, nulldev_write, nulldev_getstat, nulldev_setstat, nulldev_portdeath): New functions.

(timeopen, timeclose): Fix prototype.
2014-03-26kern: fix formatting of multiboot modulesJustus Winter
Previously, bootstrap_create would print the multiboot modules with padding applied to the end of the line. As multiboot modules as used by the Hurd span more than one line. This makes the list of modules hard to read and it looks unclean, more like an accident. Furthermore, it is not clear what the intend of this was, as the padding is applied at the end of the line, with no further information printed thereafter. * kern/bootstrap.c (bootstrap_create): Remove variable maxlen and len, update printfs.
2014-02-26kern: fix mig_strncpyJustus Winter
Previously, the function mig_strncpy would always zero-terminate the destination string. Make mig_strncpy behave like mig_strncpy and strncpy in the glibc. Also fix the implementation of mig_strncpy to return the length of the written string to align the implementation with the declaration in include/mach/mig_support.h. * kern/ipc_mig.c (mig_strncpy): Do not zero-terminate the destination string. Return length of destination string.
2014-02-12Reduce kmem_map to make room for kentry_data_sizeSamuel Thibault
* kern/slab.c (KMEM_MAP_SIZE): Decrease from 128MiB to 96MiB.
2014-02-05kern: implement task_set_nameJustus Winter
task_set_name sets the name of a task. This is a debugging aid. The name will be used in error messages printed by the kernel. * kern/task.c (task_set_name): New function. * kern/task.h (task_set_name): New declaration.
2014-02-04kern: make kmem_error panicJustus Winter
The slab allocator relies on the fact that kmem_cache_error does not return. Previously, kmem_error was using printf. Use panic instead. Found using the Clang Static Analyzer. * kern/slab.c (kmem_error): Use panic instead of printf.
2014-02-04kern: use kmem_warn instead of kmem_error in kmem_cache_errorJustus Winter
* kern/slab.c (kmem_cache_error): Use kmem_warn instead of kmem_error to print the cache name and its address.
2014-02-01kern: add a name field to struct taskJustus Winter
* kern/task.c (task_create): Initialize name with the address of the task. * kern/task.h (TASK_NAME_SIZE): New definition. (struct task): Add field name.
2014-02-01kern: add snprintfJustus Winter
* kern/printf.c (snprintf): New function. * kern/printf.h (snprintf): New declaration.
2014-01-16kern: include the mig-generated server headers in ipc_kobject.cJustus Winter
GNU MIG recently gained support for emitting x_server_routine declarations in the generated server header file. Using this declaration, the x_server_routine functions can be inlined into the ipc_kobject_server function. * kern/ipc_kobject.c: Include the mig-generated server headers.
2014-01-09kern: align kmem_cache objects using __cacheline_alignedJustus Winter
* kern/slab.h (struct kmem_cache): Align kmem_cache objects using __cacheline_aligned.
2014-01-06kern: optimize the layout of struct kmem_cacheJustus Winter
* kern/slab.h (struct kmem_cache): Reorder the fields so that all hot fields are within the first cache line.
2014-01-05kern: explain the significance of the chosen lengthJustus Winter
* kern/slab.h (KMEM_CACHE_NAME_SIZE): Explain the significance of the chosen length.
2014-01-03kern: make struct kmem_cache fit into two cache linesJustus Winter
Previously, the size of struct kmem_cache was 136 bytes, just eight bytes larger than 128 bytes, which is typically two cache lines on today's CPUs. By reducing the size of the name field which holds a human-readable description by eight bytes to 24 bytes, the struct kmem_cache can be made fit into two cache lines. This change should not affect the usefulness of this field. For reference, the length of the largest hard-coded name is 17. * kern/slab.h (KMEM_CACHE_NAME_SIZE): Define to 24.
2014-01-03kern: reduce the size of struct taskJustus Winter
* kern/task.h (struct task): Reduce the size of struct task by 2 * sizeof boolean_t by using a bit field for the boolean flags.
