cinfo array is now freed along with other init memory.
bootmem allocator memory is reduced to be completely used up.
free boot memory now prints the used free memory as well.
Each container was taking up more than 3KB of space at boot-time structures
This was due to having 4 pagers and 32 boot-time capabilities for each. This
caused the boot-time kernel size to vary a lot with capabilities. The new
numbers are optimum.
Particularly we always have a single pager per container, even though the
array structures allow more. Single pager makes container-wide privileges
and management simpler.
The first one is related to resource recycling. The parent which is waiting its
child to exit did not delete its ktcb. Now, it deletes.
The second one is related to self destroy. The added code wakes up all the
waiters before it exits.
In the former case, when a child was exiting there was a risk of being preempted while it
was also taken away from the runqueue. In this situatuion, it may not have had
the chance of waking up the parent in case if it waits for the child to exit.
This was also true for suspend & resume so they were patched also.
The fix solves the problem of giving the last slice from a pool.
The helper macro makes utcb space creation easy for the user because we have to
consider a few things like alignment and total allocated space.
If sleepers on a mutex were more than one, only one of them was woken up. This
caused the other ones to sleep forever. Now, there is not any facility to check
if there are still sleepers on the kernel space when a thread is about to unlock
a mutex. To workaround this problem, we started waking up all the threads
instead of one. This brings another problem called thundering herd but also
provides random fairness which gives more oppurtunity to a higher priority
thread to get the lock.
Standard capabilities are provided. They can be optionally disabled.
Also 4 custom capabilities are provided. They can be optionally
enabled and configured to different types/targets. Particularly
inter-container ipc will be done by these capabilities.
