This commit implements the getservent family of functions:
getservent()
setservent()
endservent()
getservbyname()
getservbyport()
for accessing the /etc/services file.
This commit has addressed the issues identified by utilizing more C++ structures,
addressing unchecked error possibilities, strncpy bounds checking, and other issues
found in the initial pull request
Instead of pushing the message, file name, line# and function name
separately, we now mash the message, file name and line# into a string
constant and pass that.
This means that the failure path only has to push a single address onto
the stack, reducing the code size and causing the compiler to inline
many more functions containing an assertions (e.g RefPtr::operator*())
Obviously if you wanted minimal size, you could turn assertions off
entirely, but I really like running with assertions, so let's make
a little effort to reduce their impact. :^)
The syscall wrapper for ptrace needs to return the peeked value when
using PT_PEEK.
Because of this, the user has to check errno to detect an error in
PT_PEEK.
This commit changes the actual syscall's interface (only for PT_PEEK) to
allow the syscall wrapper to detect an error and change errno.
PT_SETTREGS sets the regsiters of the traced thread. It can only be
used when the tracee is stopped.
Also, refactor ptrace.
The implementation was getting long and cluttered the alraedy large
Process.cpp file.
This commit moves the bulk of the implementation to Kernel/Ptrace.cpp,
and factors out peek & poke to separate methods of the Process class.
PT_POKE writes a single word to the tracee's address space.
Some caveats:
- If the user requests to write to an address in a read-only region, we
temporarily change the page's protections to allow it.
- If the user requests to write to a region that's backed by a
SharedInodeVMObject, we replace the vmobject with a PrivateIndoeVMObject.
We now use minherit(MAP_INHERIT_ZERO) to create a gettid() cache that
is automatically invalidated on fork(). This is needed since the TID
will be different in a forked child, and so we can't have a stale
cached TID lying around.
This is a gigantic speedup for LibJS (and everyone else too) :^)
This patch adds the minherit() syscall originally invented by OpenBSD.
Only the MAP_INHERIT_ZERO mode is supported for now. If set on an mmap
region, that region will be zeroed out on fork().
These validate_elf_* methods really had no business being static
methods of ELF::Image. Now that the ELF namespace exists, it makes
sense to just move them to be free functions in the namespace.
This patch adds a way for a socket to ask to be routed through a
specific interface.
Currently, this option only applies to sending, however, it should also
apply to receiving...somehow :^)
This commit adds a basic implementation of
the ptrace syscall, which allows one process
(the tracer) to control another process (the tracee).
While a process is being traced, it is stopped whenever a signal is
received (other than SIGCONT).
The tracer can start tracing another thread with PT_ATTACH,
which causes the tracee to stop.
From there, the tracer can use PT_CONTINUE
to continue the execution of the tracee,
or use other request codes (which haven't been implemented yet)
to modify the state of the tracee.
Additional request codes are PT_SYSCALL, which causes the tracee to
continue exection but stop at the next entry or exit from a syscall,
and PT_GETREGS which fethces the last saved register set of the tracee
(can be used to inspect syscall arguments and return value).
A special request code is PT_TRACE_ME, which is issued by the tracee
and causes it to stop when it calls execve and wait for the
tracer to attach.
FlyString is a flyweight string class that wraps a RefPtr<StringImpl>
known to be unique among the set of FlyStrings. The class is very
unoptimized at the moment.
When to use FlyString:
- When you want O(1) string comparison
- When you want to deduplicate a lot of identical strings
When not to use FlyString:
- For strings that don't need either of the above features
- For strings that are likely to be unique
A new IP address or a new network mask can be specified in the command
line arguments of ifconfig to replace the old values of a given network
adapter. Additionally, more information is being printed for each adapter.
Add an extra out-parameter to shbuf_get() that receives the size of the
shared buffer. That way we don't need to make a separate syscall to
get the size, which we always did immediately after.
This feels a lot more consistent and Unixy:
create_shared_buffer() => shbuf_create()
share_buffer_with() => shbuf_allow_pid()
share_buffer_globally() => shbuf_allow_all()
get_shared_buffer() => shbuf_get()
release_shared_buffer() => shbuf_release()
seal_shared_buffer() => shbuf_seal()
get_shared_buffer_size() => shbuf_get_size()
Also, "shared_buffer_id" is shortened to "shbuf_id" all around.
This patch adds a crappy pread() just to get "git" working locally.
A proper version would be implemented in the kernel so that we don't
have to mess with the file descriptor's offset at all.
