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.
Various changes made while offline.
+ bwrite sector argument is redundant; use b->sector.
+ reformatting of files for nicer PDF page breaks
+ distinguish between locked, unlocked inodes in type signatures
+ change FD_FILE to FD_INODE
+ move userinit (nee proc0init) to proc.c
+ move ROOTDEV to param.h
+ always parenthesize sizeof argument
better parsing of sh commands (copied from jos sh)
cat: read from 1 if no args
sbrk system call, but untested
getpid system call
moved locks in keyboard intr, but why do we get intr w. null characters from keyboard?
Linux 2.4 box using gcc 3.4.6 don't seem to follow the same
conventions as the i386-jos-elf-gcc compilers.
Can run make 'TOOLPREFIX=' or edit the Makefile.
curproc[cpu()] can now be NULL, indicating that no proc is running.
This seemed safer to me than having curproc[0] and curproc[1]
both pointing at proc[0] potentially.
The old implementation of swtch depended on the stack frame layout
used inside swtch being okay to return from on the other stack
(exactly the V6 you are not expected to understand this).
It also could be called in two contexts: at boot time, to schedule
the very first process, and later, on behalf of a process, to sleep
or schedule some other process.
I split this into two functions: scheduler and swtch.
The scheduler is now a separate never-returning function, invoked
by each cpu once set up. The scheduler looks like:
scheduler() {
setjmp(cpu.context);
pick proc to schedule
blah blah blah
longjmp(proc.context)
}
The new swtch is intended to be called only when curproc[cpu()] is not NULL,
that is, only on behalf of a user proc. It does:
swtch() {
if(setjmp(proc.context) == 0)
longjmp(cpu.context)
}
to save the current proc context and then jump over to the scheduler,
running on the cpu stack.
Similarly the system call stubs are now in assembly in usys.S to avoid
needing to know the details of stack frame layout used by the compiler.
Also various changes in the debugging prints.
