Each thread gets a 0x200-byte area from the 0x1000-sized page, when all 8 thread slots in a single page are used up, the kernel allocates a new page to hold another 8 entries.
This is consistent with what the real kernel does.
This commit fixes several kernel object leaks. The most severe of them
was threads not being removed from the private handle table used for
CoreTiming events. This resulted in Threads never being released, which
in turn held references to Process, causing CodeSets to never be freed
when loading other applications.
memory.cpp/h contains definitions related to acessing memory and
configuring the address space
mem_map.cpp/h contains higher-level definitions related to configuring
the address space accoording to the kernel and allocating memory.
Involves making asserts use printf instead of the log functions (log functions are asynchronous and, as such, the log won't be printed in time)
As such, the log type argument was removed (printf obviously can't use it, and it's made obsolete by the file and line printing)
Also removed some GEKKO cruft.
* Simplifies scheduling logic, specifically regarding thread status. It should be much clearer which statuses are valid
for a thread at any given point in the system.
* Removes dead code from thread.cpp.
* Moves the implementation of resetting a ThreadContext to the corresponding core's implementation.
Other changes:
* Fixed comments in arm interfaces.
* Updated comments in thread.cpp
* Removed confusing, useless, functions like MakeReady() and ChangeStatus() from thread.cpp.
* Removed stack_size from Thread. In the CTR kernel, the thread's stack would be allocated before thread creation.
During normal operation, a thread waiting on an WaitObject and the
object hold mutual references to each other for the duration of the
wait.
If a process is forcefully terminated (The CTR kernel has a SVC to do
this, TerminateProcess, though no equivalent exists for threads.) its
threads would also be stopped and destroyed, leaving dangling pointers
in the WaitObjects.
The solution is to simply have the Thread remove itself from WaitObjects
when it is stopped. The vector of Threads in WaitObject has also been
changed to hold SharedPtrs, just in case. (Better to have a reference
cycle than a crash.)
This should speed up compile times a bit, as well as enable more liberal
use of forward declarations. (Due to SharedPtr not trying to emit the
destructor anymore.)
