This class is intended to replace all IOAddress usages in the Kernel
codebase altogether. The idea is to ensure IO can be done in
arch-specific manner that is determined mostly in compile-time, but to
still be able to use most of the Kernel code in non-x86 builds. Specific
devices that rely on x86-specific IO instructions are already placed in
the Arch/x86 directory and are omitted for non-x86 builds.
The reason this works so well is the fact that x86 IO space acts in a
similar fashion to the traditional memory space being available in most
CPU architectures - the x86 IO space is essentially just an array of
bytes like the physical memory address space, but requires x86 IO
instructions to load and store data. Therefore, many devices allow host
software to interact with the hardware registers in both ways, with a
noticeable trend even in the modern x86 hardware to move away from the
old x86 IO space to exclusively using memory-mapped IO.
Therefore, the IOWindow class encapsulates both methods for x86 builds.
The idea is to allow PCI devices to be used in either way in x86 builds,
so when trying to map an IOWindow on a PCI BAR, the Kernel will try to
find the proper method being declared with the PCI BAR flags.
For old PCI hardware on non-x86 builds this might turn into a problem as
we can't use port mapped IO, so the Kernel will gracefully fail with
ENOTSUP error code if that's the case, as there's really nothing we can
do within such case.
For general IO, the read{8,16,32} and write{8,16,32} methods are
available as a convenient API for other places in the Kernel. There are
simply no direct 64-bit IO API methods yet, as it's not needed right now
and is not considered to be Arch-agnostic too - the x86 IO space doesn't
support generating 64 bit cycle on IO bus and instead requires two 2
32-bit accesses. If for whatever reason it appears to be necessary to do
IO in such manner, it could probably be added with some neat tricks to
do so. It is recommended to use Memory::TypedMapping struct if direct 64
bit IO is actually needed.
Many code patterns and hardware procedures rely on reliable delay in the
microseconds granularity, and since they are using such delays which are
valid cases, but should not rely on x86 specific code, we allow to
determine in compile time the proper platform-specific code to use to
invoke such delays.
This reworks the way the UHCI schedule is set up to handle interrupt
transfers, creating 11 queue heads each assigned a different
period/latency, so that interrupt transfers can be linked into the
schedule with their specified period more easily.
Modifies the way the UHCI schedule is set up & modified to allow for
multiple transfers of the same type, from one or more devices, to be
queued up and handled simultaneously.
Until now, our kernel has reimplemented a number of AK classes to
provide automatic internal locking:
- RefPtr
- NonnullRefPtr
- WeakPtr
- Weakable
This patch renames the Kernel classes so that they can coexist with
the original AK classes:
- RefPtr => LockRefPtr
- NonnullRefPtr => NonnullLockRefPtr
- WeakPtr => LockWeakPtr
- Weakable => LockWeakable
The goal here is to eventually get rid of the Lock* classes in favor of
using external locking.
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.
This change unifies the naming convention for kernel tasks.
The goal of this change is to:
- Make the task names more descriptive, so users can more
easily understand their purpose in System Monitor.
- Unify the naming convention so they are consistent.
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. :^)
This allows us to remove the PCI::get_interrupt_line API function. As a
result, this removes a bunch of not so great patterns that we used to
cache PCI interrupt line in many IRQHandler derived classes instead of
just using interrupt_number method of IRQHandler class.
A couple of things were changed:
1. Semantic changes - PCI segments are now called PCI domains, to better
match what they are really. It's also the name that Linux gave, and it
seems that Wikipedia also uses this name.
We also remove PCI::ChangeableAddress, because it was used in the past
but now it's no longer being used.
2. There are no WindowedMMIOAccess or MMIOAccess classes anymore, as
they made a bunch of unnecessary complexity. Instead, Windowed access is
removed entirely (this was tested, but never was benchmarked), so we are
left with IO access and memory access options. The memory access option
is essentially mapping the PCI bus (from the chosen PCI domain), to
virtual memory as-is. This means that unless needed, at any time, there
is only one PCI bus being mapped, and this is changed if access to
another PCI bus in the same PCI domain is needed. For now, we don't
support mapping of different PCI buses from different PCI domains at the
same time, because basically it's still a non-issue for most machines
out there.
2. OOM-safety is increased, especially when constructing the Access
object. It means that we pre-allocating any needed resources, and we try
to find PCI domains (if requested to initialize memory access) after we
attempt to construct the Access object, so it's possible to fail at this
point "gracefully".
3. All PCI API functions are now separated into a different header file,
which means only "clients" of the PCI subsystem API will need to include
that header file.
4. Functional changes - we only allow now to enumerate the bus after
a hardware scan. This means that the old method "enumerate_hardware"
is removed, so, when initializing an Access object, the initializing
function must call rescan on it to force it to find devices. This makes
it possible to fail rescan, and also to defer it after construction from
both OOM-safety terms and hotplug capabilities.
This expands the reach of error propagation greatly throughout the
kernel. Sadly, it also exposes the fact that we're allocating (and
doing other fallible things) in constructors all over the place.
This patch doesn't attempt to address that of course. That's work for
our future selves.
Now that the old PCI::Device was removed, we can complete the PCI
changes by making the PCI::DeviceController to be named PCI::Device.
Really the entire purpose and the distinction between the two was about
interrupts, but since this is no longer a problem, just rename it to
simplify things further.
I created this class a long time ago just to be able to quickly make a
PCI device to also represent an interrupt handler (because PCI devices
have this capability for most devices).
Then after a while I introduced the PCI::DeviceController, which is
really almost the same thing (a PCI device class that has Address member
in it), but is not tied to interrupts so it can have no interrupts, or
spawn interrupt handlers however it wants to seems fit.
However I decided it's time to say goodbye for this class for
a couple of reasons:
1. It made a whole bunch of weird patterns where you had a PCI::Device
and a PCI::DeviceController being used in the topic of implementation,
where originally, they meant to be used mutually exclusively (you
can't and really don't want to use both).
2. We can really make all the classes that inherit from PCI::Device
to inherit from IRQHandler at this point. Later on, when we have MSI
interrupts support, we can go further and untie things even more.
3. It makes it possible to simplify the VirtIO implementation to a great
extent. While this commit almost doesn't change it, future changes
can untangle some complexity in the VirtIO code.
For UHCIController, E1000NetworkAdapter, NE2000NetworkAdapter,
RTL8139NetworkAdapter, RTL8168NetworkAdapter, E1000ENetworkAdapter we
are simply making them to inherit the IRQHandler. This makes some sense,
because the first 3 devices will never support anything besides IRQs.
For the last 2, they might have MSI support, so when we start to utilize
those, we might need to untie these classes from IRQHandler and spawn
IRQHandler(s) or MSIHandler(s) as needed.
The VirtIODevice class is also a case where we currently need to use
both PCI::DeviceController and IRQHandler classes as parents, but it
could also be untied from the latter.
The previous version of this was pretty bad and caused a lot of
odd behevaiour to occur. We now abstract a lot of the allocation
behind a `template`d pool class that handles all of the memory
allocation.
The number of UHCI related files is starting to expand to the point
where it's best if we move this into their own subdirectory. It'll
also make it easier to manage when we decide to add some more
controller types (whenever that may be)
