2017-03-15	test/test_mutex_pi: periodically report the number of priority boosts	Richard Braun

2017-03-15	kern/syscnt: replace the evcnt module	Richard Braun
	The syscnt module supports more generic counters, in addition to atomic access from any context on any architecture.
2017-03-04	test/test_mutex_pi: new test module	Richard Braun
	This test module checks most of the guarantees expected from mutexes with priority inheritance.
2017-02-20	test/test_llsync_defer: use a macro to throttle reports	Richard Braun

2017-02-04	Clean up compilation	Richard Braun
	Instead of mixing standard headers and internal redefinitions of standard types, completely rely on the compiler for what is guaranteed for a free standing environment. This results in the removal of kern/stddef.h and kern/stdint.h. The kern/types.h header is reintroduced for the different (and saner) purpose of defining types not specified in standard C, namely ssize_t for now.
2017-01-25	test/test_sref_weakref: decrease ref reporting frequency	Richard Braun

2017-01-25	test/test_sref_weakref: new test module	Richard Braun

2017-01-25	kern/sref: implement weak references	Richard Braun

2017-01-24	kern/thread: add the THREAD_KERNEL_PREFIX macro	Richard Braun
	This macro is used to build kernel thread names.
2017-01-13	Replace unsigned long with uintptr_t for integer/pointer conversions	Richard Braun
	This is mostly done for the machine-independent part.
2017-01-09	x86/pmap: report pmap update failures	Richard Braun
	Update the test_vm_page_fill module accordingly. The vm_kmem module needs to be reworked in order to correctly handle failures.
2016-12-09	Force brackets around one-line conditional statements	Richard Braun
	This change was done using astyle, with a few manual editing here and there.
2016-09-02	test_xcall: include kern/panic.h	Richard Braun

2016-09-02	test/test_vm_page_fill: fix periodic report	Richard Braun

2016-09-02	test/test_vm_page_fill: fix copyright notice	Richard Braun

2016-09-02	test/test_vm_page_fill: improve performance	Richard Braun
	Pin the test thread on a processor so that pmap updates can remain local.
2016-09-02	test/test_vm_page_fill: new test module	Richard Braun

2014-12-10	test/test_llsync_defer: update call to kmem_cache_init	Richard Braun

2014-12-06	x86/pmap: remove page table accounting	Richard Braun
	This kind of strict accounting can lead to a kind of thrashing where one or more tables can get allocated and released very frequently. For now, take the naive approach of not freeing page table pages until the complete tree is torn down. Remove the now irrelevant x86_pmap_remove_ptp test module.
2014-11-29	test/test_x86_double_fault: new test module	Richard Braun

2014-11-17	test: update calls	Richard Braun
	Adjust calls to functions that were recently changed.
2014-10-09	test: remove assertions	Richard Braun
	Don't rely on assert, use panic and error_check instead.
2014-10-09	kern/xcall: new module	Richard Braun
	Provide cross-processor function calls.
2014-09-26	test/test_sref_dirty_zeroes: fix header inclusion	Richard Braun

2014-09-23	test/test_sref_dirty_zeroes: new test module	Richard Braun
	Actually, it's not that hard to produce dirty zeroes. Here is a test module that does just that, and exposes a bug in the algorithm.
2014-09-20	kern/sref: new module	Richard Braun
	This module provides multiprocessor scalable reference counters, based on Refcache, as described in the RadixVM paper.
2014-06-18	Set threads as detached where applicable	Richard Braun

2014-06-09	kern/llsync: rename llsync_read_leave to llsync_read_exit	Richard Braun

2014-05-21	test/test_llsync_defer: new test module	Richard Braun

2014-05-20	test/test_x86_pmap_remove_ptp: tune test module	Richard Braun
	Some attempts on real hardware and KVM failed (i.e. reported false positives). Tune the test to make such failures less likely, and document the issue.
2014-05-20	test/test_x86_pmap_remove_ptp: new test module	Richard Braun

2014-05-20	test/test_pmap_update: rename test module	Richard Braun
	Give the test module a slightly more explicit name.
2014-05-20	Add basic internal test framework	Richard Braun
