Previously we would crash the process immediately when a promise
violation was found during a syscall. This is error prone, as we
don't unwind the stack. This means that in certain cases we can
leak resources, like an OwnPtr / RefPtr tracked on the stack. Or
even leak a lock acquired in a ScopeLockLocker.
To remedy this situation we move the promise violation handling to
the syscall handler, right before we return to user space. This
allows the code to follow the normal unwind path, and grantees
there is no longer any cleanup that needs to occur.
The Process::require_promise() and Process::require_no_promises()
functions were modified to return ErrorOr<void> so we enforce that
the errors are always propagated by the caller.
This change lays the foundation for making the require_promise return
an error hand handling the process abort outside of the syscall
implementations, to avoid cases where we would leak resources.
It also has the advantage that it makes removes a gs pointer read
to look up the current thread, then process for every syscall. We
can instead go through the Process this pointer in most cases.
We now use AK::Error and AK::ErrorOr<T> in both kernel and userspace!
This was a slightly tedious refactoring that took a long time, so it's
not unlikely that some bugs crept in.
Nevertheless, it does pass basic functionality testing, and it's just
real nice to finally see the same pattern in all contexts. :^)
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.
As suggested by @ccapitalK, it makes the interface more neat and clean.
The proper order is to get ScanoutID first, then ResourceID and after it
everything else that is needed to complete the operation successfully.
A VirtIO graphics adapter is really the VirtIO GPU, so the virtualized
hardware has no distinction between both components so there's no
need to put such distinction in software.
We might need to split things in the future, but when we do so, we must
take proper care to ensure that the interface between the components
is correct and use the usual codebase patterns.
