It makes much more sense to have these actions being performed via the
prctl syscall, as they both require 2 plain arguments to be passed to
the syscall layer, and in contrast to most syscalls, we don't get in
these removed syscalls an automatic representation of Userspace<T>, but
two FlatPtr(s) to perform casting on them in the prctl syscall which is
suited to what has been done in the removed syscalls.
Also, it makes sense to have these actions in the prctl syscall, because
they are strongly related to the process control concept of the prctl
syscall.
This syscall will be used later on to ensure we can declare virtual
memory mappings as immutable (which means that the underlying Region is
basically immutable for both future annotations or changing the
protection bits of it).
We have a new, improved string type coming up in AK (OOM aware, no null
state), and while it's going to use UTF-8, the name UTF8String is a
mouthful - so let's free up the String name by renaming the existing
class.
Making the old one have an annoying name will hopefully also help with
quick adoption :^)
The syscalls are renamed as they no longer reflect the exact POSIX
functionality. They can now handle setting/getting scheduler parameters
for both threads and processes.
Doesn't use them in libc headers so that those don't have to pull in
AK/Platform.h.
AK_COMPILER_GCC is set _only_ for gcc, not for clang too. (__GNUC__ is
defined in clang builds as well.) Using AK_COMPILER_GCC simplifies
things some.
AK_COMPILER_CLANG isn't as much of a win, other than that it's
consistent with AK_COMPILER_GCC.
Each of these strings would previously rely on StringView's char const*
constructor overload, which would call __builtin_strlen on the string.
Since we now have operator ""sv, we can replace these with much simpler
versions. This opens the door to being able to remove
StringView(char const*).
No functional changes.
The obsolete ttyname and ptsname syscalls are removed.
LibC doesn't rely on these anymore, and it helps simplifying the Kernel
in many places, so it's an overall an improvement.
In addition to that, /proc/PID/tty node is removed too as it is not
needed anymore by userspace to get the attached TTY of a process, as
/dev/tty (which is already a character device) represents that as well.
Apologies for the enormous commit, but I don't see a way to split this
up nicely. In the vast majority of cases it's a simple change. A few
extra places can use TRY instead of manual error checking though. :^)
Previously, Emulator::virt$execve would not report ENOENT and EACCES
when the binary to be executed was nonexistent or not executable. This
broke the execp family of functions, which rely on ENOENT being reported
in order to know that they should continue searching $PATH.
Emulator::virt$execve would construct command lines such as
`/bin/UserspaceEmulator echo -- hello` instead of
`/bin/UserspaceEmulator -- echo hello`, which naturally caused problems.
This commit moves the "--" to the correct place.
This function is an extended version of `chmod(2)` that lets one control
whether to dereference symlinks, and specify a file descriptor to a
directory that will be used as the base for relative paths.
This commit fixes an issue where zero-alignment would lead to the
requested range being allocated outside of the total available range,
hitting an assert in RangeAllocator::allocate_anywhere().
If we do not mark these ranges as reserved, RangeAllocator might later
give us addresses that overlap these, which then causes an assertion
failure in the SoftMMU. This behavior led to recurring CI failures, and
sometimes made programs as simple as `/bin/true` fail.
Fixes "Crash 1" reported in #9104
Most other syscalls pass address arguments as `void*` instead of
`uintptr_t`, so let's do that here too. Besides improving consistency,
this commit makes `strace` correctly pretty-print these arguments in
hex.
This feature was introduced in version 4.17 of the Linux kernel, and
while it's not specified by POSIX, I think it will be a nice addition to
our system.
MAP_FIXED_NOREPLACE provides a less error-prone alternative to
MAP_FIXED: while regular fixed mappings would cause any intersecting
ranges to be unmapped, MAP_FIXED_NOREPLACE returns EEXIST instead. This
ensures that we don't corrupt our process's address space if something
is already at the requested address.
Note that the more portable way to do this is to use regular
MAP_ANONYMOUS, and check afterwards whether the returned address matches
what we wanted. This, however, has a large performance impact on
programs like Wine which try to reserve large portions of the address
space at once, as the non-matching addresses have to be unmapped
separately.
We create a base class called GenericFramebufferDevice, which defines
all the virtual functions that must be implemented by a
FramebufferDevice. Then, we make the VirtIO FramebufferDevice and other
FramebufferDevice implementations inherit from it.
The most important consequence of rearranging the classes is that we now
have one IOCTL method, so all drivers should be committed to not
override the IOCTL method or make their own IOCTLs of FramebufferDevice.
All graphical IOCTLs are known to all FramebufferDevices, and it's up to
the specific implementation whether to support them or discard them (so
we require extensive usage of KResult and KResultOr, together with
virtual characteristic functions).
As a result, the interface is much cleaner and understandable to read.
We only froward String setting and FlagPost creation for now, due to the
other performance events being nonsensical to forward.
We also record these signposts in the optionally generated profile.
It was fragile to use the address of the body of the memory management
functions to disable memory auditing within them. Functions called from
these did not get exempted from the audits, so in some cases
UserspaceEmulator reported bogus heap buffer overflows.
Memory auditing did not work at all on Clang because when querying the
addresses, their offset was taken relative to the base of `.text` which
is not the first segment in the `R/RX/RW(RELRO)/RW(non-RELRO)` layout
produced by LLD.
Similarly to when setting metadata about the allocations, we now use the
`emuctl` system call to selectively suppress auditing when we reach
these functions. This ensures that functions called from `malloc` are
affected too, and no issues occur because of the inconsistency between
Clang and GCC memory layouts.
