- Change INIT_FUNCTION and INIT_SECTION to CODE_SEG("INIT") and DATA_SEG("INIT") respectively
- Remove INIT_FUNCTION from function prototypes
- Remove alloc_text pragma calls as they are not needed anymore
The trap frame is in a random location on the stack, and setting Esp0 there
wastes significant amounts of space and may lead to unexpected stack overflows.
Also use a more descriptive expression for the V86 members of the KTRAP_FRAME.
- Un-hardcode the RPL_MASK value.
- s/KiUnexpectedInterrupt&Number/KiUnexpectedInterrupt&Vector/
- Use C-style comments in traphdlr.c as everywhere else in the file.
- Update the URLs for the MSDN "FPO" macro documentation.
* Add an NDK header to define INIT_FUNCTION/INIT_SECTION globally
* Use _declspec(allocate(x)) and _declspec(code_seg(x)) on MSVC versions that support it
* Use INIT_FUNCTION on functions only and INIT_SECTION on data only (required by MSVC)
* Place INIT_FUNCTION before the return type (required by MSVC)
* Make sure declarations and implementations share the same modifiers (required by MSVC)
* Add a global linker option to suppress warnings about defined but unused INIT section
* Merge INIT section into .text in freeldr
Previously, we would keep sampling the CPU frequency until two subsequent
samples differed by at most 1 MHz. This could take several seconds, and would
unnecessarily delay boot.
Instead, if sampling is too unreliable, just give up and calculate the average
frequency from 10 samples. This is no worse than picking the frequency that
just happened to be returned twice in a row.
The fact that this method of sampling fails could indicate that there's a
problem with our performance counter implementation or timer interrupt,
but that's a separate issue...
Note: before we had a BOOLEAN parameter called StoreInstruction, but in reality it was not specifying whether the fault was from a store store instruction, but whether it was an access violation rather than a page-not-present fault. On x86 without PAE there are only 2 kinds of access violations: (1) Access of a kernel mode page from user mode, which is handled early and (2) access of a read-only (or COW) page with a writing instruction. Therefore we could get away with this, even though it relied on the wrong assumption that a fault, which was not a page-not-present-fault, was automatically a write access. This commit only changes one thing: we pass the full fault-code to MmAccessFault and handle the rest from there in exactly the same way as before. More changes are coming to make things clear.
