This is way better than walking the region lists. I suppose we could
even let the hardware trigger a page fault and handle that. That'll
be the next step in the evolution here I guess.
This isn't finished but I'll commit as I go. We need to get to where context
switching only needs to change CR3 and everything's ready to go.
My basic idea is:
- The first 4 kB is off-limits. This catches null dereferences.
- Up to the 4 MB mark is identity-mapped and kernel-only.
- The rest is available to everyone!
While the first 4 MB is only available to the kernel, it's still mapped in
every process, for convenience when entering the kernel.
The SpinLock was all backwards and didn't actually work. Fixing it exposed
how wrong most of the locking here is.
I need to come up with a better granularity here.
I also added a generator cache to FileHandle. This way, multiple
reads to a generated file (i.e in a synthfs) can transparently
handle multiple calls to read() without the contents changing
between calls.
The cache is discarded at EOF (or when the FileHandle is destroyed.)
The naive spinlock was not nearly enough to protect kmalloc from
reentrancy problems.
I don't want to deal with coming up with a fancy lock for kmalloc
right now, so I made an InterruptDisabler thingy instead.
It does CLI and then STI iff interrupts were previously enabled.
I know I'm praying for cargo here, but this does fix a weird issue
where logging the sum_alloc and sum_free globals wouldn't display
symmetric values all the time.
