Separated vfs file as a specific file. vm file is not always a vfs file.
Updated the README
sys_open was not returning back to client, added that.
Added comments for future vfs additions.
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.
Tasks boot fine up to doing ipc using their utcbs.
UTCB PLAN:
- Push ipc registers into private environment instead of a shared utcb,
but map-in a shared utcb to pass on long data to server tasks.
- Shared utcb has unique virtual address for every thread.
- Forked child does inherit parent's utcb, but cannot use it to communicate to
any server. It must explicitly obtain its own utcb for that.
- Clone could have a flag to explicitly not inherit parent utcb, which is the
right thing to do.
- MM0 serves a syscall to obtain self utcb.
- By this method, upon forks tasks don't need to map-in a utcb unless they want
to pass long data.
Added reading pages from the page cache into user buffer for sys_read.
Increases stack sizes to 4 pages.
Updated README to include more details about multi-pager environments.
Boot files and tasks are now initialised together. Theads can ask for particular
space and thread ids, if they're unused. This enables us to get predefined ids for
known tasks such as the VFS task.
Fixes to README
Other minor fixes.
Changed l4id_t type to integer to recognise negative id values like L4_ANYTHREAD.
Added an extremely simple script that cleans and builds everything in right order.
Increased boot pmds by one:
This is due to the fact that if the 1MB initial allocation area of the kernel is
not 1MB-aligned, it is ought to be mapped from the middle of one MB to next,
which requires 2 pmds.
