Before this commit, m_blocker was only set to null in Thread::block,
after the thread has been unblocked.
Starting with this commit, m_blocker is also set to null in
Thread::unblock.
This change will allow us to implement a missing feature of the PT_TRACE
command of the ptrace syscall - stopping the traced thread when it
exits the execve syscall.
That feature will be implemented by sending a blocking SIGSTOP to the
traced thread after it has executed the execve logic and before it
starts executing the new program in userspace.
However, since Process::exec arranges the tss to return to userspace
(the so-called "yield-teleport"), the code in Thread::block that should
be run after the thread unblocks, and sets m_blocker to null, never
actually runs.
Setting m_blocker to null in Thread::unblock allows us to avoid an
incorrect state where the thread is in a Running state but conatins a
pointer to a Blocker.
PT_POKE writes a single word to the tracee's address space.
Some caveats:
- If the user requests to write to an address in a read-only region, we
temporarily change the page's protections to allow it.
- If the user requests to write to a region that's backed by a
SharedInodeVMObject, we replace the vmobject with a PrivateIndoeVMObject.
This patch adds the minherit() syscall originally invented by OpenBSD.
Only the MAP_INHERIT_ZERO mode is supported for now. If set on an mmap
region, that region will be zeroed out on fork().
We now store the previous thread state in m_stop_state for all
transitions to the Stopped state via Thread::set_state.
Fixes#1752 whereupon resuming a thread that was stopped with SIGTSTP,
the previous state of the thread is not remembered correctly, resulting
in m_stop_state == State::Invalid and the associated assertion fails.
These validate_elf_* methods really had no business being static
methods of ELF::Image. Now that the ELF namespace exists, it makes
sense to just move them to be free functions in the namespace.
The plan is to extend what currently is known as "CPUGraph" and let the
SystemServer spawn multiple instances of it - which then can show memory
or network usages as well :^)
Simply renaming the applet is the first step.
This commit is one step forward for pluggable driver modules.
Instead of creating instances of network adapter classes, we let
their detect() methods to figure out if there are existing devices
to initialize.
There was a frequently occurring pattern of "map this physical address
into kernel VM, then read from it, then unmap it again".
This new typed_map() encapsulates that logic by giving you back a
typed pointer to the kind of structure you're interested in accessing.
It returns a TypedMapping<T> that can be used mostly like a pointer.
When destroyed, the TypedMapping object will unmap the memory. :^)
If we don't support ACPI, just don't instantiate an ACPI parser.
This is way less confusing than having a special parser class whose
only purpose is to do nothing.
We now search for the RSDP in ACPI::initialize() instead of letting
the parser constructor do it. This allows us to defer the decision
to create a parser until we're sure we can make a useful one.
- Get rid of the PCI::Initializer object which was not serving any real
purpose or holding any data members.
- Move command line parsing from init to PCI::initialize().
Instead of nesting a bunch of heap allocations, just store them in
a simple HashMap<u16, MMIOSegment>.
Also fix a bunch of double hash lookups like this:
ASSERT(map.contains(key));
auto thing = map.get(key).value();
They now look like this instead:
auto thing = map.get(key);
ASSERT(thing.has_value());
- Make things const when they don't need to be non-const.
- Don't return AK::String when it's always a string literal anyway.
- Remove excessive get_ prefixes per coding style.
The PCI access layer was composed of a bunch of virtual functions that
did nothing but call other virtual functions. The first layer was never
overridden so there was no need for them to be virtual.
This patch removes the indirection and moves logic from PCI::Access
down into the various PCI::get_foo() helpers that were the sole users.
