- Add a tag field to all endpoint messages, which doubles as a
notification field
- Add a endpoint_bind_irq syscall to enable an endpoint to listen for
interrupt notifications. This mechanism needs to change.
- Add a temporary copy of the serial port code to nulldrv, and let it
take responsibility for COM2
Instead of making every callsite that may make a thread do a blocking
operation also invoke the scheduler, move that logic into thread
implementation - if the thread is blocking and is the current thread,
call schedule().
Related changes in this commit:
- Also make exiting threads and processes call the scheduler when
blocking.
- Threads start blocked, and get automatically added to the scheduler's
blocked list.
vm_space and page_table continue to take over duties from
page_manager:
- creation and deletion of address spaces / pml4s
- cross-address-space copies for endpoints
- taking over pml4 ownership from process
Also fixed the bug where the wrong process was being set in the cpu
data.
To solve: now the kernel process has its own vm_space which is not
g_kernel_space.
