We now create a WorkerAgent for the parent context, which is currently
only a Window. Note that Workers can have Workers per the spec.
The WorkerAgent spawns a WebWorker process to hold the actual
script execution of the Worker. This is modeled with the
DedicatedWorkerHost object in the WebWorker process.
A start_dedicated_worker IPC method in the WebWorker IPC creates the
WorkerHost object. Future different worker types may use different IPC
messages to create their WorkerHost instance.
This implementation cannot yet postMessage between the parent and the
child processes.

Userspace initially didn't have any sort of mechanism to handle
device hotplug (either removing or inserting a device).
This meant that after a short term of scanning all known devices, by
fetching device events (DeviceEvent packets) from /dev/devctl, we
basically never try to read it again after SystemServer initialization
code.
To accommodate hotplug needs, we change SystemServer by ensuring it will
generate a known set of device nodes at their location during the its
main initialization code. This includes devices like /dev/mem, /dev/zero
and /dev/full, etc.
The actual responsible userspace program to handle hotplug events is a
new userspace program called DeviceMapper, with following key points:
- Its current task is to to constantly read the /dev/devctl device node.
Because we already created generic devices, we only handle devices
that are dynamically-generated in nature, like storage devices, audio
channels, etc.
- Since dynamically-generated device nodes could have an infinite minor
numbers, but major numbers are decoded to a device type, we create an
internal registry based on two structures - DeviceNodeFamily, and
RegisteredDeviceNode. DeviceNodeFamily objects are attached in the
main logic code, when handling a DeviceEvent device insertion packet.
A DeviceNodeFamily object has an internal HashTable to hold objects of
RegisteredDeviceNode class.
- Because some device nodes could still share the same major number (TTY
and serial TTY devices), we have two modes of allocation - limited
allocation (so a range is defined for a major number), or infinite
range. Therefore, two (or more) separate DeviceNodeFamily objects can
can exist albeit sharing the same major number, but they are required
to allocate from a different minor numbers' range to ensure there are
no collisions.
- As for KCOV, we handle this device differently. In case the user
compiled the kernel with such support - this happens to be a singular
device node that we usually don't need, so it's dynamically-generated
too, and because it has only one instance, we don't register it in our
internal registry to not make it complicated needlessly.
The Kernel code is modified to allow proper blocking in case of no
events in the DeviceControlDevice class, because otherwise we will need
to poll periodically the device to check if a new event is available,
which would waste CPU time for no good reason.
LibTLS still can't access many parts of the web, so let's hide this
behind a flag (with all the plumbing that entails).
Hopefully this can encourage folks to improve LibTLS's algorithm support
:^).
This program has never lived up to its original idea, and has been
broken for years (property editing, etc). It's also unmaintained and
off-by-default since forever.
At this point, Inspector is more of a maintenance burden than a feature,
so this commit removes it from the system, along with the mechanism in
Core::EventLoop that enables it.
If we decide we want the feature again in the future, it can be
reimplemented better. :^)
WebDriver aims to implement the WebDriver specification found at
https://w3c.github.io/webdriver/webdriver-spec.html . It's an HTTP
server that can create Browser sessions and control them.

Add overrides for serenity_bin and serenity_lib to allow the actual
CMakeLists.txt from Userland to be used to build as many services as
possible without adding more clutter to Meta/Lagom/CMakeLists.txt
This service is responsible for loading network configuration from a
/etc/Network.ini config file. It sets up static IP address + mask or
starts DHCPClient depending on configuration.
ConfigServer is an IPC service that provides access to application
configuration and settings. The idea is to replace all uses of
Core::ConfigFile with IPC requests to ConfigServer.
This first cut of the API is pretty similar to Core::ConfigFile.
The old:
auto config = Core::ConfigFile::open_for_app("App");
auto value = config->read_entry("Group", "Key");
The new:
auto value = Config::read_string("App", "Group", "Key");
ConfigServer uses the ~/.config directory as its backing store
and all the files remain human-editable. :^)
A SPICE agent communicates with the host OS to provide nifty features
like clipboard sharing :^)
This patch implements only plain-text clipboard sharing.
See: github.com/freedesktop/spice-protocol/blob/master/spice/vd_agent.h
Adds new service FileSystemAccessServer which allows programs to
request a file descriptor for any file on the file system.
The user can be prompted to choose the path with a FilePicker, or the
path can be provided by the application which will show a MessageBox
showing the pid and name of the calling process and allows the user to
approve or deny the request.
This patch introduces the SQLServer system server. This service is
supposed to be the only process/application talking to database storage.
This makes things like locking and caching more reliable, easier to
implement, and more efficient.
In LibSQL we added a client component that does the ugly IPC nitty-
gritty for you. All that's needed is setting a number of event handler
lambdas and you can connect to databases and execute statements on them.
Applications that wish to use this SQLClient class obviously need to
link LibSQL and LibIPC.
This service daemon will act as an intermediary between the Inspector
program and the inspectable programs it wants to inspect.
Programs can make themselves available for inspection by connecting
to /tmp/portal/inspectables using the Core::EventLoop RPC protocol.
The current ProtocolServer was really only used for requests, and with
the recent introduction of the WebSocket service, long-lasting
connections with another server are not part of it. To better reflect
this, this commit renames it to RequestServer.
This commit also changes the existing 'protocol' portal to 'request',
the existing 'protocol' user and group to 'request', and most mentions
of the 'download' aspect of the request to 'request' when relevant, to
make everything consistent across the system.
Note that LibProtocol still exists as-is, but the more generic Client
class and the more specific Download class have both been renamed to a
more accurate RequestClient and Request to match the new names.
This commit only change names, not behaviors.
The WebSocket service isolates communication with a WebSocket to its
own isolated process. Similar to other isolating services, it has its
own user and group.
This is a helper program for FileManager that performs a file operation
in a separate process and reports progress on standard out.
This initial implementation only supports the "Copy" operation and does
not do any detailed error handling.
This patch adds SymbolServer, a service daemon that provides
symbolication of ELF binaries. It has a very simple IPC API at the
moment that only turns addresses into symbol names.
This can be used to implement symbolication without having to do
in-process ELF parsing yourself. :^)
