de-bloat the proc structure by allocating notes
with on the heap instead of embedding them in
the proc structure.
This saves around 640 bytes per process.
|

Handlin notes is common for all architectures
except how the note has to be pushed on the user
stack.
This change adds a popnote() function that returns
only the note string or nil if the process should
not be notified (no notes or user notes hold off).
Popnote() also handles common errors like notify
during note handling or missing note handler and
will suicide the process in that case.

The kernel stack is now above the Proc structure,
so the explicit kstack pointer can be eliminated.
|
|
we might as well handle the per process cycle
counter in the portable part instead of duplicating the code
in every arch and have inconsistent implementations.
we now have a portable kenter() and kexit() function,
that is ment to be used in trap/syscall from user,
which updates the counters.
some kernels missed initializing Mach.cyclefreq.

replace machine specific userinit() by a portable
implemntation that uses kproc() to create the first
process. the initcode text is mapped using kmap(),
so there is no need for machine specific tmpmap()
functions.
initcode stack preparation should be done in init0()
where the stack is mapped and can be accessed directly.
replacing the machine specific userinit() allows some
big simplifications as sysrfork() and kproc() are now
the only callers of newproc() and we can avoid initializing
fields that we know are being initialized by these
callers.
rename autogenerated init.h and reboot.h headers.
the initcode[] and rebootcode[] blobs are now in *.i
files and hex generation was moved to portmkfile. the
machine specific mkfile only needs to specify how to
build rebootcode.out and initcode.out.

userspace note handlers, like any function, expect ther
first argument in R0 register on arm.
|

procctl() is always called with up and it would not
work correctly if passed a different process, so
remove the Proc* argument and use up directly.

this change is in preparation for amd64. the systab calling
convention was also changed to return uintptr (as segattach
returns a pointer) and the arguments are now passed as
va_list which handles amd64 arguments properly (all arguments
are passed in 64bit quantities on the stack, tho the upper
part will not be initialized when the element is smaller
than 8 bytes).
this is partial. xalloc needs to be converted in the future.

pprint() might block or even (maliciously) call into
devproc write which will corrupt the qlock chain on attempt
to qlock up->debug again.

this simplifies the arm ports and keeps all the stuff in one place
instead of spreading it thru notify(), trap() and syscall() functions
and prevents useless fp state copying for kernel procs.
also make sure to save fp in notify while still splhi().
