This requires us to add an Interrupts.h file in the Kernel/Arch
directory, which includes the architecture specific files.
The commit also stubs out the functions to be able to compile the
aarch64 Kernel.
Even if the PIC was disabled it can still generate noise (spurious IRQs)
so we need to register two handlers for handling such cases.
Also, we declare interrupt service routine offset 0x20 to 0x2f as
reserved, so when the PIC is disabled, we can handle spurious IRQs from
the PIC at separate handlers.
Ideally the x86 fault handler would only do x86 specific things and
delegate the rest of the work to MemoryManager. This patch moves some of
the address checks to a more generic place.
If there's nobody listening for the crash signal, fall back to the
normal crash path where we get some debug output about what happened.
Thanks to Idan for suggesting the fix.
SIGSTKFLT is a signal that signifies a stack fault in a x87 coprocessor,
this signal is not POSIX and also unused by Linux and the BSDs, so let's
use SIGSEGV so programs that setup signal handlers for the common
signals could still handle them in serenity.
Storing assigning a string literal to a String object just to pass it to
a function expecting a StringView is wasteful. Let's just not do that.
For consistency's sake, this commit changes all of the other invocations
to use StringView literals, too.
A new RegisterState header includes the platform specific RegisterState
header based on the platform being compiled.
The Aarch64 RegisterState header contains stubs for Debug
The platform independent Processor.h file includes the shared processor
code and includes the specific platform header file.
All references to the Arch/x86/Processor.h file have been replaced with
a reference to Arch/Processor.h.
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.
SonarCloud flagged this "Code Smell", where we are accessing these
static methods as if they are instance methods. While it is technically
possible, it is very confusing to read when you realize they are static
functions.
This has several benefits:
1) We no longer just blindly derefence a null pointer in various places
2) We will get nicer runtime error messages if the current process does
turn out to be null in the call location
3) GCC no longer complains about possible nullptr dereferences when
compiling without KUBSAN
This isn't needed for Process / Thread as they only reference it
by pointer and it's already part of Kernel/Forward.h. So just include
it where the implementation needs to call it.
Depending on the values it might be difficult to figure out whether a
value is decimal or hexadecimal. So let's make this more obvious. Also
this allows copying and pasting those numbers into GNOME calculator and
probably also other apps which auto-detect the base.
The entire process is not needed, just require the user to pass in the
Space. Also provide no_lock variant to use when you already have the
VM/Space lock acquired, to avoid unnecessary recursive spinlock
acquisitions.
The non CPU specific code of the kernel shouldn't need to deal with
architecture specific registers, and should instead deal with an
abstract view of the machine. This allows us to remove a variety of
architecture specific ifdefs and helps keep the code slightly more
portable.
We do this by exposing the abstract representation of instruction
pointer, stack pointer, base pointer, return register, etc on the
RegisterState struct.
Right now we're using the FS segment for our per-CPU struct. On x86_64
there's an instruction to switch between a kernel and usermode GS
segment (swapgs) which we could use.
This patch doesn't update the rest of the code to use swapgs but it
prepares for that by using the GS segment instead of the FS segment.
