This has KString, KBuffer, DoubleBuffer, KBufferBuilder, IOWindow,
UserOrKernelBuffer and ScopedCritical classes being moved to the
Kernel/Library subdirectory.
Also, move the panic and assertions handling code to that directory.
The Storage subsystem, like the Audio and HID subsystems, exposes Unix
device files (for example, in the /dev directory). To ensure consistency
across the repository, we should make the Storage subsystem to reside in
the Kernel/Devices directory like the two other mentioned subsystems.
While the PL011-based UART0 is currently reserved for the kernel
console, UART1 is free to be exposed to the userspace as `/dev/ttyS0`.
This will be used as the stdout of `run-tests-and-shutdown.sh` when
testing the AArch64 kernel.
This logo was actually used as a first sign of life in the very early
days of the aarch64 port.
Now that we boot into the graphical mode of the system just fine there's
no need to keep this.
Since multiboot_modules_count is set to 0, we can safely set the
multiboot_modules pointer to 0 (null pointer), as we don't use multiboot
on aarch64 anyway.
This reuses the existing `RPi::Mailbox` interface to read the command
line via a VideoCore-specific mailbox message. This will have to be
replaced if that interface starts being smarter, as this is needed very
early, and nothing guarantees that a smarter Mailbox interface wouldn't
need to allocate or log, which is a no-no during early boot.
As the response string can be arbitrarily long, it's the caller's job to
provide a long enough buffer for `Mailbox::query_kernel_command_line`.
This commit chose 512 bytes, as it provides a large enough headroom over
the 150-200 characters implicitly added by the VC firmware.
The portable way would be to parse the `/chosen/bootargs` property of
the device tree, but we currently lack the scaffolding for doing that.
Support for this in QEMU relies on a patch that has not yet been
accepted upstream, but is available via our `Toolchain/BuildQEMU.sh`
script. It should, however, work on bare metal.

The Raspberry Pi's mailbox interface does not guarantee that the
returned command line is null-terminated. This commit removes that
assumption from the current code, allowing the next commit to add
support for reading it on the Pi.
This also lets us eliminate a few manual `strlen()` calls :^)
Some hardware/software configurations crash KVM as soon as we try to
start Serenity. The exact cause is currently unknown, so just fully
revert it for now.
This reverts commit 897c4e5145.
Process created performance events for kernel processes are only ever
emitted for the kernel processes that exist when profiling is enabled.
Any new kernel processes created after profiling is enabled will not
have corresponding process created performance events, so all kernel
processes should be created before enabling profiling.
NetworkTask was the only kernel process being created after enabling
profiling, so we now just create it before enabling profiling. This
fixes an issue where Profiler was failing to parse boot profiles as a
result of NetworkTask not having a process created event.
The new baked image is a Prekernel and a Kernel baked together now, so
essentially we no longer need to pass the Prekernel as -kernel and the
actual kernel image as -initrd to QEMU, leaving the option to pass an
actual initrd or initramfs module later on with multiboot.
- Instead of taking the first new thread as an out-parameter, we now
bundle the process and its first thread in a struct and use that
as the return value.
- Make all Process factory functions return ErrorOr. Use this to convert
some places to more TRY().
- Drop the "try_" prefix on Process factory functions.
