This small change allows to use the IOAPIC by default without to enable
SMP mode, which emulates Uni-Processor setup with IOAPIC instead of
using the PIC.
This opens the opportunity to utilize other types of interrupts like MSI
and MSI-X interrupts.
The MADT data could be on unaligned boundary - for example, a GSI number
(u32) on unaligned address which leads to a KUBSAN error and halting the
system.
Using the phrase "create" doesn't give information on whether the object
must be allocated or a failure to do so can be handled gracefully.
Therefore, we must use better phrase for such purpose, so "must_create"
for the allocate-and-construct static methods is definitely good choice.
Instead, allocate before constructing the object and pass NonnullOwnPtr
of KString to the object if needed. Some classes can determine their
names as they have a known attribute to look for or have a static name.
- dump_backtrace was using ebp instead of rbp on x86_64, only using the
lower 32-bits of rbp.
- The symbol loader was only fetching half of the pointer from the
symbol table. (8 chars instead of 16 chars)
Since it's possible to determine where the small zones will start to
occur for each PhysicalRegion, we can use arithmetic so that the call
time for both large and small zones is identical.
This file refers to the controlling terminal associated with the current
process. It's specified by POSIX, and is used by ports like openssh to
interface with the terminal even if the standard input/output is
redirected to somewhere else.
Our implementation leverages ProcFS's existing facilities to create
process-specific symbolic links. In our setup, `/dev/tty` is a symbolic
link to `/proc/self/tty`, which itself is a symlink to the appropriate
`/dev/pts` entry. If no TTY is attached, `/dev/tty` is left dangling.
Now that the userland has a compatiblity wrapper for select(), the
kernel doesn't need to implement this syscall natively. The poll()
interface been around since 1987, any code still using select()
should be slapped silly.
Note: the SerenityOS source tree mostly uses select() and not poll()
despite SerenityOS having support for poll() since early 2019...
This includes a new Thread::Blocker called SignalBlocker which blocks
until a signal of a matching type is pending. The current Blocker
implementation in the Kernel is very complicated, but cleaning it up is
a different yak for a different day.
As required by posix. Also rename Thread::clear_signals to
Thread::reset_signals_for_exec since it doesn't actually clear any
pending signals, but rather does execve related signal book-keeping.
This option is already enabled when building Lagom, so let's enable it
for the main build too. We will no longer be surprised by Lagom Clang
CI builds failing while everything compiles locally.
Furthermore, the stronger `-Wsuggest-override` warning is enabled in
this commit, which enforces the use of the `override` keyword in all
classes, not just those which already have some methods marked as
`override`. This works with both GCC and Clang.
It's not enough to just find the largest-address-not-above the argument,
we must also check that the found region actually contains the argument.
Regressed in a23edd42b8, thanks to Idan
for pointing this out.
Most of the time, we will be freeing physical pages within the
full-sized zones. We can do some simple math to find the right zone
immediately instead of looping through the zones, checking each one.
We still do loop through the slack/remainder zones at the end.
There's probably an even nicer way to solve this, but this is already a
nice improvement. :^)
We were already doing this for userspace memory regions (in the
Memory::AddressSpace class), so let's do it for kernel regions as well.
This gives a nice speed-up on test-js and probably basically everything
else as well. :^)
There is no use to create a temporary String of a char const* to just
cast it to a StringView on SysFSComponent construction again.
Also this could have lead to a UAF bug.
If we're sending an urgent signal (i.e. due to unexpected conditions)
and the Process did not setup any signal handler, we should immediately
terminate the Thread, to ensure the current trap frame is preserved for
the impending core dump.
Returning 'result.error().code()' erroneously creates an
ErrorOr<FlatPtr> of the positive errno code, which breaks our
error-returning convention.
This seems to be due to a forgotten minus-sign during the refactoring in
9e51e295cf. This latent bug was never
discovered, because currently the error-handling paths are rarely
exercised.
Also, remove incomplete, superfluous check.
Incomplete, because only the byte at the provided address was checked;
this misses the last bytes of the "jerk page".
Superfluous, because it is already correctly checked by peek_user_data
(which calls copy_from_user).
The caller/tracer should not typically attempt to read non-userspace
addresses, we don't need to "hot-path" it either.
