Instead, hold the lock while we copy the contents to a stack-based
Vector then iterate on it without any locking.
Because we rely on heap allocations, we need to propagate errors back
in case of OOM condition, therefore, both PCI::enumerate API function
and PCI::Access::add_host_controller_and_enumerate_attached_devices use
now a ErrorOr<void> return value to propagate errors. OOM Error can only
occur when enumerating the m_device_identifiers vector under a spinlock
and trying to expand the temporary Vector which will be used locklessly
to actually iterate over the PCI::DeviceIdentifiers objects.
To declare that we don't have a PCI bus in the system we do two things:
1. Probe IO ports before enabling access -
In case we are using the QEMU ISA-PC machine type, IO probing results in
floating bus condition (returning 0xFF values), thus, we know we don't
have PCI bus on the system.
2. Allow the user to specify to not use the PCI bus at all in the kernel
commandline.
This change allow the user to request the kernel to not use any PCI
resources/devices at all.
Also, don't try to initialize devices that rely on PCI if disabled.
Two classes are added - HostBridge and MemoryBackedHostBridge, which
both derive from HostController class. This allows the kernel to map
different busses from different PCI domains in the same time. Each
HostController implementation doesn't take the Address object to address
PCI devices but instead we take distinct numbers of the PCI bus, device
and function as it allows us to specify arbitrary PCI domains in the
Address structure and still to get the correct PCI devices. This also
matches the hardware behavior of PCI domains - the host bridge merely
takes memory operations or IO operations and translates them to
addressing of three components - PCI bus, device and function.
These changes also greatly simplify how enumeration of Host Bridges work
now - scanning of the hardware depends on what the Host bridges can do
for us, so in case we have multiple host bridges that expose a memory
mapped region or IO ports to access PCI configuration space, we simply
let the code of the host bridge to figure out how to fetch data for us.
Another semantical change is that a PCI domain structure is no longer
attached to a PhysicalAddress, so even in the case that the machine
doesn't implement PCI domains, we still treat that machine to contain 1
PCI domain to treat that one host bridge in the same way, like with a
machine with one or more PCI domains.
This will somwhat help unify them also under the same SysFS directory in
the commit.
Also, it feels much more like this change reflects the reality that both
ACPI and the BIOS are part of the firmware on x86 computers.
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.
