I'm a tabs guy. I like tabs, it's an elegant way to represent
indentation instead of brute-forcing it. But I have to admit that the
world seems to be going towards spaces, and tooling tends not to play
nice with tabs. So here we go, changing the whole repo to spaces since
I'm getting tired of all the inconsistent formatting.
Now that the other CPUs have been brought up, add support for scheduling
tasks on them. The scheduler now maintains separate ready/blocked lists
per CPU, and CPUs will attempt to balance load via periodic work
stealing.
Other changes as a result of this:
- The device manager no longer creates a local APIC object, but instead
just gathers relevant info from the APCI tables. Each CPU creates its
own local APIC object. This also spurred the APIC timer calibration to
become a static value, as all APICs are assumed to be symmetrical.
- Fixed a bug where the scheduler was popping the current task off of
its ready list, however the current task is never on the ready list
(except the idle task was first set up as both current and ready).
This was causing the lists to get into bad states. Now a task can only
ever be current or in a ready or blocked list.
- Got rid of the unused static process::s_processes list of all
processes, instead of trying to synchronize it via locks.
- Added spinlocks for synchronization to the scheduler and logger
objects.
There was previously no good way to block log-display tasks, either the
fb driver or the kernel log task. Now the system object has a signal
(j6_signal_system_has_log) that gets asserted when the log is written
to.
Look up the global constructor list that the linker outputs, and run
them all. Required creation of the `kutil::no_construct` template for
objects that are constructed before the global constructors are run.
Also split the `memory_initialize` function into two - one for just
those objects that need to happen before the global ctors, and one
after.
