i broke sbrk, fix it

clean up stale error checks and panics
delete unused functions
a few comments

kill user process when it generates an unhandled trap (e.g., 13)
fix bug in test code of malloc

chdir
cd in shell
nits in mkdir, ls, etc.

proc[0] can sleep(), at least after it gets to main00()
proc[0] calls iget(rootdev, 1) before forking init

no more proc[] entry per cpu for idle loop
each cpu[] has its own gdt and tss
no per-proc gdt or tss, re-write cpu's in scheduler (you win, cliff)
main0() switches to cpu[0].mpstack

interrupts could be recursive since lapic_eoi() called before rti
so fast interrupts overflow the kernel stack
fix: cli() before lapic_eoi()

low-level keyboard input (not hooked up to /dev yet)
fix acquire() to cli() *before* incrementing nlock
make T_SYSCALL a trap gate, not an interrupt gate
sadly, various crashes if you hold down a key

fix race in holding() check in acquire()
give cpu1 a TSS and gdt for when it enters scheduler()
and a pseudo proc[] entry for each cpu
cpu0 waits for each other cpu to start up
read() for files

standarize on unix-like lowercase struct names

add uint and standardize on typedefs instead of unsigned

goodbye PushRegs

nitpicks

Eliminate annoying Pseudodesc structure.
Eliminate unnecessary parts of mmu.h.

standardize on not using foo_ prefix in struct foo

Don't kill process when inside kernel.

remove non-idiomatic increment/decrement

New scheduler.

Removed cli and sti stack in favor of tracking
number of locks held on each CPU and explicit
conditionals in spinlock.c.

no more recursive locks
wakeup1() assumes you hold proc_table_lock
sleep(chan, lock) provides atomic sleep-and-release to wait for condition
ugly code in swtch/scheduler to implement new sleep
fix lo

passes both usertests
exit had acquire where I meant release
swtch now checks that you hold no locks

no more big kernel lock
succeeds at usertests.c pipe test

pre-empt both user and kernel, in clock interrupt
usertest.c tests pre-emption

curproc[cpu()] can now be NULL, indicating that no proc is running.
This seemed safer to me than having curproc[0] and curproc[1]
both pointing at proc[0] potentially.

The old implementation of swtch depended on the stack frame layout
used inside swtch being okay to return from on the other stack
(exactly the V6 you are not expected to understand this).
It also could be called in two contexts: at boot time, to schedule
the very first process, and later, on behalf of a process, to sleep
or schedule some other process.

I split this into two functions: scheduler and swtch.

The scheduler is now a separate never-returning function, invoked
by each cpu once set up. The scheduler looks like:

scheduler() {
setjmp(cpu.context);

pick proc to schedule
blah blah blah

longjmp(proc.context)
}

The new swtch is intended to be called only when curproc[cpu()] is not NULL,
that is, only on behalf of a user proc. It does:

swtch() {
if(setjmp(proc.context) == 0)
longjmp(cpu.context)
}

to save the current proc context and then jump over to the scheduler,
running on the cpu stack.

Similarly the system call stubs are now in assembly in usys.S to avoid
needing to know the details of stack frame layout used by the compiler.

Also various changes in the debugging prints.
