The original intention was to put devskel in to the
kernel to detach what it provides from devsrv.
That is not a good reason, just move it to userspace.
auth/box has been changed to exec skelfs instead
of relying on '#z'.
SSL is implemented by devssl. It's extremely
obsolete by now, and is not used anywhere but
cpu, import, and oexportfs.
This change strips out the devssl bits, but
does not (yet) remove the code from libsec.
The new interface uses pci capability structures to locate the
registers in a rather fine granular way making it more complicated
as they can be located anywhere in any pci bar at any offset.
As far as i can see, qemu (6.0.50) never uses i/o bars in
non-legacy mode, so only mmio is implemented for now.
The previous virtio drivers implemented the legacy interface only
which uses i/o ports for all register accesses. This is still
the preferred method (and also qemu default) as it is easier to
emulate and most likely faster.
However, some vps providers like vultr force the legacy interface
to disabled with qemu -device option "disable-legacy=on" resulting
on a system without a disk and ethernet.
This adds the new function pointer PCArch.clockinit(),
which is a timer dependent initialization routine.
It also takes over the job of guesscpuhz(). This way, the
architecture ident code can switch between different
timers (i8253, HPET and XEN timer).
This implements proper intrdisable() support for all
interrupt controllers.
For enable, (*arch->intrassign)(Vctl*) fills in the
Vctl.enable and Vctl.disable pointers with the
appropriate routines and returns the assigned
vector number.
Once the Vctl struct has been linked to its vector
chain, Vctl.enable(Vctl*, shared) gets called with a
flag if the vector has been already enabled (shared).
This order is important here as enabling the interrupt
on the controller before we have linked the chain can
cause spurious interrupts, expecially on mp system
where the interrupt can target a different cpu than
the caller of intrenable().
The intrdisable() case is the other way around.
We first disable the interrupt on the controller
and after that unlink the Vctl from the chain.
On a multiprocessor, the xfree() of the Vctl struct
is delayed to avoid freeing it while it is still
in use by another cpu.
The xen port now also uses pc/irq.c which has been
made generic enougth to handle xen's irq scheme.
Also, archgeneric is now a separate file to avoid
pulling in dependencies from the 8259 interrupt
controller code.
The new pci code is moved to port/pci.[hc] and shared by
all ports.
Each port has its own PCI controller implementation,
providing the pcicfgrw*() functions for low level pci
config space access. The locking for pcicfgrw*() is now
done by the caller (only port/pci.c).
Device drivers now need to include "../port/pci.h" in
addition to "io.h".
The new code now checks bridge windows and membars,
while enumerating the bus, giving the pc driver a chance
to re-assign them. This is needed because some UEFI
implementations fail to assign the bars for some devices,
so we need to do it outselfs. (See pcireservemem()).
While working on this, it was discovered that the pci
code assimed the smallest I/O bar size is 16 (pcibarsize()),
which is wrong. I/O bars can be as small as 4 bytes.
Bit 1 in an I/O bar is also reserved and should be masked off,
making the port mask: port = bar & ~3;
The swcursor used a 32x32 image for saving/restoring
screen contents for no reason.
Add a doflush argument to swcursorhide(), so that
disabling software cursor with a double buffered
softscreen is properly hidden. The doflush parameter
should be set to 0 in all other cases as swcursordraw()
will flushes both (current and previours) locations.
Make sure swcursorinit() and swcursorhide() clear the
visibility flag, even when gscreen is nil.
Remove the cursor locking and just do everything within
the drawlock. All cursor functions such as curson(),
cursoff() and setcursor() will be called drawlock
locked. This also means &cursor can be read.
Fix devmouse cursor reads and writes. We now have the
global cursor variable that is only modified under
the drawlock. So copy under drawlock.
Move the pc software cursor implementation into vgasoft
driver, so screen.c does not need to handle it as
a special case.
Remove unused functions such as drawhasclients().
this driver makes regions of physical memory accessible as a disk.
to use it, ramdiskinit() has to be called before confinit(), so
that conf.mem[] banks can be reserved. currently, only pc and pc64
kernel use it, but otherwise the implementation is portable.
ramdisks are not zeroed when allocated, so that the contents are
preserved across warm reboots.
to not waste memory, physical segments do not allocate Page structures
or populate the segment pte's anymore. theres also a new SG_CHACHED
attribute.
there isnt much of a point in keep maintaining separate
kernel configurations for terminal and cpu kernels as
the role can be switched with service=cpu boot parameter.
to make stuff cosistent, we will just have one "pc" kernel
and one "pc64" kernel configuration now.
