66ba8079c7 Use static page table for boot, mapping first 4Mbyte; no more segment trick
Allocate proper kernel page table immediately in main using boot allocator
Remove pginit
Simplify address space layout a tiny bit
More to come (e.g., superpages to simplify static table)

1a81e38b17 make new code like old code
Variable declarations at top of function,
separate from initialization.

Use == 0 instead of ! for checking pointers.

Consistent spacing around {, *, casts.

Declare 0-parameter functions as (void) not ().

Integer valued functions return -1 on failure, 0 on success.

79cd8b3eed Simplify allocuvm/deallocuvm to operate in a contiguous memory model. This makes their interface match up better with proc->sz and also simplifies the callers (it even gets the main body of exec on one page). 2010-09-02 18:28:36 -04:00

d8828817d7 Rearrange proc.h and proc.c to get our action-packed spreads back (mostly). They also make sense in this order, so it's not just for page layout. 2010-09-02 04:15:17 -04:00

7e0cc8e36e another attempt at cpu-local variables.
this time do it ourselves instead of piggybacking on TLS.
add -fno-pic to Makefile; pic code breaks our fake TLS.

228e500a0c save cpus.intena in sched(), so we get the right EFLAGS.IF value once a
timer-preempted kernel thread resumes execution in trap() after yield().
otherwise the kernel could get an arbitrary number of nested timer intrs.

ab08960f64 Final word on the locking fiasco?
Change pushcli / popcli so that they can never turn on
interrupts unexpectedly.  That is, if interrupts are on,
then pushcli(); popcli(); turns them off and back on, but
if they are off to begin with, then pushcli(); popcli(); is
a no-op.

I think our fundamental mistake was having a primitive
(release and then popcli nee spllo) that could turn
interrupts on at unexpected moments instead of being
explicit about when we want to start allowing interrupts.

With the new semantics, all the manual fiddling of ncli
to force interrupts off in certain sections goes away.
In return, we must explicitly mark the places where
we want to enable interrupts unconditionally, by calling sti().
There is only one: inside the scheduler loop.

ce2e751555 test: store curproc at top of stack
I don't actually think this is worthwhile, but I figured
I would check it in before reverting it, so that it can
be in the revision history.

Pros:
  * curproc doesn't need to turn on/off interrupts
  * scheduler doesn't have to edit curproc anymore

Cons:
  * it's ugly
  * all the stack computation is more complicated.
  * it doesn't actually simplify anything but curproc,
    and even curproc is harder to follow.
