- Only the topmost parent prints pass messages. Any failed child can print fail message.
- Added testing of 16 forked threads doing file create/read/write/close and
16 forked x 4 cloned = 64 threads spawning/exiting
- Now libl4 has no references to utcb page or shmat etc.
- Pager does not deal with special case utcb page allocation.
It instead allocates a shared page from shm memory pool.
- All tasks working to original standard.
Next:
- Add per-thread utcb allocation from the kernel
- Add larger register file for standard ipc
- Add long ipc (up to 1Kb)
Removed some commented out code.
Removed excessive printfs.
Fixed spid not initialising for mm0
Fixed some faults with fs0.
TODO:
- Need to store vfs files in a separate list.
- Need to define vnum as a vfs-file-specific data, i.e. in priv_data field of vm_file.
- Need to then fix vfs_receive_sys_open.
utcb as a shared page instead of the message registers.
Implemented the code that passes task information from mm0 to fs0
using the fs0 utcb. The code seems to work OK but:
There's an issue with anon pages that they end up on the same swapfile
and with same file offsets (e.g. utcb and stack at offset 0). Need to
fix this issue but otherwise this implementation seems to work.
TODO:
- Separate anon regions into separate vmfiles.
- Possibly map the stacks from virtual files so that they can be
read from userspace in the future for debugging.
- Possibly utcb could be created as a shared memory object using shmget/shmat
during startup.
