we allow devether to create ethernet cards on attach. this is useull
for virtual cards like the sink driver, so we can create a sink
by simply: bind -a '#l2:sink ea=112233445566' /net
the detach routine was never called, so remove it from the few drivers
that attempted to implement it.
the only architecture dependence of devether was enabling interrupts,
which is now done at the end of the driver's reset() function now.
the wifi stack and dummy ethersink also go to port/.
do the IRQ2->IRQ9 hack for pc kernels in intrenabale(), so not
every caller of intrenable() has to be aware of it.
introducing the PFPU structue which allows the machine specific
code some flexibility on how to handle the FPU process state.
for example, in the pc and pc64 kernel, the FPsave structure is
arround 512 bytes. with avx512, it could grow up to 2K. instead
of embedding that into the Proc strucutre, it is more effective
to allocate it on first use of the fpu, as most processes do not
use simd or floating point in the first place. also, the FPsave
structure has special 16 byte alignment constraint, which further
favours dynamic allocation.
this gets rid of the memmoves in pc/pc64 kernels for the aligment.
there is also devproc, which is now checking if the fpsave area
is actually valid before reading it, avoiding debuggers to see
garbage data.
the Notsave structure is gone now, as it was not used on any
machine.
access to the axi segment hangs the machine when the fpga
is not programmed yet. to prevent access, we introduce a
new SG_FAULT flag, that when set on the Segment.type or
Physseg.attr, causes the fault handler to immidiately
return with an error (as if the segment would not be mapped).
during programming, we temporarily set the SG_FAULT flag
on the axi physseg, flush all processes tlb's that have
the segment mapped and when programming is done, we clear
the flag again.
introduce cpushutdown() function that does the common
operation of initiating shutdown, returning once all
cpu's got the message and are about to shutdown. this
avoids duplicated code which isnt really machine specific.
automatic reboot on panic only when *debug= is not set
and the machine is a cpu server or has no display,
otherwise just hang.
unlock()/iunlock():
we need to place the coherence() *before* "l->key = 0", so that any
stores that where done while holding the lock become observable
*before* other processors see the lock released.
cas()/tas():
place memory barrier before successfull return to prevent reordering.
making sure to close the dot in every kproc appears repetitive,
so instead stop inheriting the dot in kproc() as this is usually
never what you wanted in the first place.
prevent double sleep():
callers to sleep() need to be serialized as there can only
be one process sleeping at a time. plrlock and plwlock do
this.
wait for dma to complete in plwrite():
we have to wait for the dma to complete before touching
plbuf again.
maintain COPEN flag in archopen()/archclose():
when open fails because it was in use, clear the COPEN
flag, so archclose() wont screw stuff up.
the following hooks have been added to the ehci Ctlr
structore to handle cache coherency (on arm):
void* (*tdalloc)(ulong,int,ulong);
void* (*dmaalloc)(ulong);
void (*dmafree)(void*);
void (*dmaflush)(int,void*,ulong);
tdalloc() is used to allocate descriptors and the periodic
frame schedule array. on arm, this needs to return uncached
memory. tdalloc()ed memory is never freed.
dmaalloc()/dmafree() is used for io buffers. this can return
cached memory when when hardware maintains cache coherency (pc)
or dmaflush() is provided to flush/invalidate the cache (zynq),
otherwise needs to return uncached memory.
dmaflush() is used to flush/invalidate the cache. the first
argument tells us if we need to flush (non zero) or
invalidate (zero).
uncached.h is gone now. this change makes the handling explicit.
map the whole ocm memory on boot so we can translate physical to
virtual addresses and back for uncached memory using KADDR() and
PADDR().
replace ualloc() with ucalloc() returning virtual address. physical
address can be acquired with PADDR() now.
as ocm is now always mapped, use KADDR() instead of tmpmap() for
mp bootstrap.
there are no kernels currently that do page coloring,
so the only use of cachectl[] is flushing the icache
(on arm and ppc).
on pc64, cachectl consumes 32 bytes in each page resulting
in over 200 megabytes of overhead for 32gb of ram with 4K
pages.
this change removes cachectl[] and adds txtflush ulong
that is set to ~0 by pio() to instruct putmmu() to flush
the icache.
