I've been wanting to do this for a long time. It's time we start being
consistent about how this stuff works.
The new convention is:
- "LibFoo" is a userspace library that provides the "Foo" namespace.
That's it :^) This was pretty tedious to convert and I didn't even
start on LibGUI yet. But it's coming up next.

As suggested by Joshua, this commit adds the 2-clause BSD license as a
comment block to the top of every source file.
For the first pass, I've just added myself for simplicity. I encourage
everyone to add themselves as copyright holders of any file they've
added or modified in some significant way. If I've added myself in
error somewhere, feel free to replace it with the appropriate copyright
holder instead.
Going forward, all new source files should include a license header.

Threads now have numeric priorities with a base priority in the 1-99
range.
Whenever a runnable thread is *not* scheduled, its effective priority
is incremented by 1. This is tracked in Thread::m_extra_priority.
The effective priority of a thread is m_priority + m_extra_priority.
When a runnable thread *is* scheduled, its m_extra_priority is reset to
zero and the effective priority returns to base.
This means that lower-priority threads will always eventually get
scheduled to run, once its effective priority becomes high enough to
exceed the base priority of threads "above" it.
The previous values for ThreadPriority (Low, Normal and High) are now
replaced as follows:
Low -> 10
Normal -> 30
High -> 50
In other words, it will take 20 ticks for a "Low" priority thread to
get to "Normal" effective priority, and another 20 to reach "High".
This is not perfect, and I've used some quite naive data structures,
but I think the mechanism will allow us to build various new and
interesting optimizations, and we can figure out better data structures
later on. :^)

Now that we show individual threads in SystemMonitor and "top",
it's also very nice to have individual counters for the threads. :^)
|
|
Previously it was not possible to see what each thread in a process was
up to, or how much CPU it was consuming. This patch fixes that.
SystemMonitor and "top" now show threads instead of just processes.
"ps" is gonna need some more fixing, but it at least builds for now.
Fixes #66.

This was a workaround to be able to build on case-insensitive file
systems where it might get confused about <string.h> vs <String.h>.
Let's just not support building that way, so String.h can have an
objectively nicer name. :^)

Also tweaked CProcessStatisticsReader a bit to simplify the API.

These types can be picked up by including <AK/Types.h>:
* u8, u16, u32, u64 (unsigned)
* i8, i16, i32, i64 (signed)

Update ProcessManager, top and WSCPUMonitor to handle the new format.
Since the kernel is not allowed to use floating-point math, we now compile
the JSON classes in AK without JsonValue::Type::Double support.
To accomodate large unsigned ints, I added a JsonValue::Type::UnsignedInt.

It's kinda funny how I can make a mistake like this in Serenity and then
get so used to it by spending lots of time using this API that I start to
believe that this is how printf() always worked..

I originally called it "linear" because that's how the Intel manual names
virtual addresses in many cases. I'm ready to accept that most people know
this as "virtual" so let's just call it that.

There are no more kernel bitmaps. It's much better this way.
|
|
For now, the WindowServer process will run with high priority,
while the Finalizer process will run with low priority.
Everyone else gets to be "normal".
At the moment, priority simply determines the size of your time slices.
|
|
Since we know who's holding the lock, and we're gonna have to yield anyway,
we can just ask the scheduler to donate any remaining ticks to that process.
|
|
This seems like an extremely relevant metric to track.
|
|
It automagically computes %CPU usage based on the number of times a process
has been scheduled between samples. The colonel task is used as idle timer.
This is pretty cool. :^)
