The x86 architecture port is fitted with support for the unified kernel,
namely:
- the interrupt exit code now calls _Swap() if the current
thread is not a coop thread and if the scheduler is not locked
- there is no 'task' fields in the _nanokernel anymore: _Swap()
now calls _get_next_ready_thread instead
- the _nanokernel.fiber field is replaced by a more sophisticated
ready_q, based on the microkernel's priority-bitmap-based one
- nano_private includes nano_internal.h from the unified directory
- the FIBER, TASK and PREEMPTIBLE flags do not exist anymore: the thread
priority drives the behaviour
- the tcs uses a dlist for queuing in both ready and wait queues instead
of a custom singly-linked list
- other new fields in the tcs include a schedule-lock count, a
back-pointer to init data (when the task is static) and a pointer to
swap data, needed when a thread pending on _Swap() must be passed more
then just one value (e.g. k_stack_pop() needs an error code and data)
- fiberRtnValueSet() is aliased to _set_thread_return_value since it
also operates on preempt threads now
- _set_thread_return_value_with_data() sets the swap_data field in
addition to a return value from _Swap()
- convenience aliases are created for shorter names:
- _current is defined as _nanokernel.current
- _ready_q is defined as _nanokernel.ready_q
- _Swap() sets the threads's return code to -EAGAIN before swapping out
to prevent timeouts to have to set it (solves hard issues in some
kernel objects).
- Floating point support.
Note that, in _Swap(), the register holding the thread to be swapped in has
been changed from %ecx to %eax in both the legacy kernel and the unified kernel
to take advantage of the fact that the return value of _get_next_ready_thread()
is stored in %eax, and this avoids moving it to %ecx.
