It's easy to forget the responsibility of validating and safely copying
kernel parameters in code that is far away from syscalls. ioctl's are
one such example, and bugs there are just as dangerous as at the root
syscall level.
To avoid this case, utilize the AK::Userspace<T> template in the ioctl
kernel interface so that implementors have no choice but to properly
validate and copy ioctl pointer arguments.
Right now, NE2000 NICs don't work because the link is down by default
and this will never change. Of all the NE2000 documentation I looked
at I could not find a link status indicator, so just assume the link
is up.
next_packet_page points to a page, but was being compared to a byte
offset rather than a page offset when adjusting the BOUNDARY register
when the ring buffer wraps around.
Fixes#8327.
Allocate all the RX buffers in one big memory region (and same for TX.)
This removes 38 lines from every crash dump (and just seems like a
reasonable idea in general.)
This commit converts naked `new`s to `AK::try_make` and `AK::try_create`
wherever possible. If the called constructor is private, this can not be
done, so we instead now use the standard-defined and compiler-agnostic
`new (nothrow)`.
If we are in a shared interrupt handler, the called handlers might
indicate it was not their interrupt, so we should not increment the
call counter of these handlers.
Previously we would not block the caller until the connection was
established and would instead return EPIPE for the first send() call
which then likely caused the caller to abandon the socket.
This was broken by 0625342.
These are pretty common on older LGA1366 & LGA1150 motherboards.
NOTE: Since the registers datasheets for all versions of the chip
besides versions 1 - 3 are still under NDAs i had to collect
several "magical vendor constants" from the *BSD driver and the
linux driver that i was not able to name verbosely, and as such
these are labeled with the comment "vendor magic values".
We call it E1000E, because the layout for these cards is somewhat not
the same like E1000 supported cards.
Also, this card supports advanced features that are not supported on
8254x cards.
Instead of initializing network adapters in init.cpp, let's move that
logic into a separate class to handle this.
Also, it seems like a good idea to shift responsiblity on enumeration
of network adapters after the boot process, so this singleton will take
care of finding the appropriate network adapter when asked to with an
IPv4 address or interface name.
With this change being merged, we simplify the creation logic of
NetworkAdapter derived classes, so we enumerate the PCI bus only once,
searching for driver candidates when doing so, and we let each driver
to test if it is resposible for the specified PCI device.
When attempting to write to a socket that is not connected or - for
connection-less protocols - doesn't have a peer address set we should
return EPIPE instead of blocking the thread.
When receiving a SYN packet for a connection that's in the "SYN
received" state we should ignore the duplicate SYN packet instead of
closing the connection. This can happen when we didn't accept the
connection in time and our peer has sent us another SYN packet because
it thought that the initial SYN packet was lost.
Previously we wouldn't release the buffer back to the network adapter
in all cases. While this didn't leak the buffer it would cause the
buffer to not be reused for other packets.
Previously we'd just dump those packets into the network adapter's
send queue and hope for the best. Instead we should wait until the peer
has sent TCP ACK packets.
Ideally this would parse the TCP window size option from the SYN or
SYN|ACK packet, but for now we just assume the window size is 64 kB.
Previously we'd allocate buffers when sending packets. This patch
avoids these allocations by using the NetworkAdapter's packet queue.
At the same time this also avoids copying partially constructed
packets in order to prepend Ethernet and/or IPv4 headers. It also
properly truncates UDP and raw IP packets.
Previously TCPSocket::send_tcp_packet() would try to send TCP packets
which matched whatever size the userspace program specified. We'd try to
break those packets up into smaller fragments, however a much better
approach is to limit TCP packets to the maximum segment size and
avoid fragmentation altogether.
There's no good reason to distinguish between network interfaces based
on their model. It's probably a good idea to try keep the names more
persistent so scripts written for a specific network interface will be
useable after hotplug event (or after rebooting with new hardware
setup).
