Daniel SamsonandClaude Fable 5 37fb3cb0cf M3: real user processes — address spaces, syscall/sysret, swapgs
Per-process address spaces (AddressSpace = a PML4 with an empty user
half and the shared kernel half copied in; create/destroy in paging.zig)
with CR3 switched on context switch and TSS.rsp0/kernel_rsp published per
switch. The GS base now points at an arch per-CPU block and every ring
transition observes the swapgs discipline, so a ring-3 `mov %ax,%gs` can
no longer poison per-CPU access. syscall/sysret is the primary user entry
(int 0x80 kept as a test path); one handler, installed once at boot,
serves both and dispatches on whether the caller is a scheduled process
or a borrowed test thread. spawnProcess loads an ELF into a fresh address
space and schedules it; exit frees the address space after switching to
the kernel tables. New `process` test: init runs twice as a real process
(create/exit/recreate) on its own page tables, coexisting with a kernel
task under preemption. Suite 28/28.
