While I was working on LibWeb, I got a page fault at 0xe0e0e0e4.
This indicates a destroyed RefPtr if compiled with SANITIZE_PTRS
defined. However, the page fault handler didn't print out this
indication.
This makes the page fault handler print out a note if the faulting
address looks like a recently destroyed RefPtr, OwnPtr, NonnullRefPtr,
NonnullOwnPtr, ThreadSafeRefPtr or ThreadSafeNonnullRefPtr. It will
only do this if SANITIZE_PTRS is defined, as smart pointers don't get
scrubbed without it being defined.
Some time ago, automatic locking was added to the AK smart pointers to
paper over various race conditions in the kernel. Until we've actually
solved the issues in the kernel, we're stuck with the locking.
However, we don't need to punish single-threaded userspace programs with
the high cost of locking. This patch moves the thread-safe variants of
RefPtr, NonnullRefPtr, WeakPtr and RefCounted into Kernel/Library/.
