Andreas Kling	aba793fb3e	LibIPC: Share most of the code between {Client,Server}Connection This patch introduces IPC::Connection which becomes the new base class of ClientConnection and ServerConnection. Most of the functionality has been hoisted up to the base class since almost all of it is useful on both sides. This gives us the ability to send synchronous messages in both directions, which is needed for the WebContent server process. Unlike other servers, WebContent does not mind blocking on a response from its client.	2020-09-12 14:49:29 +02:00
Andreas Kling	94ddb07e58	LibIPC+Services: Make ClientConnection take socket as NonnullRefPtr This avoids getting into the awkward situation where the socket is still part-owned by main() in multi-instance service. Also it just reads nicer.	2020-07-06 13:30:11 +02:00
Andreas Kling	244efe050a	Clipboard: Move the system clipboard to a dedicated service process :^) This commit moves the clipboard from WindowServer into a new Clipboard service program. Clipboard runs as the unprivileged "clipboard" user and with a much tighter pledge than WindowServer. To keep things working as before, all GUI::Application users now make a connection to Clipboard after making the connection to WindowServer. It could be interesting to connect to Clipboard on demand, but right now that would necessitate expanding every GUI app's pledge to include "unix" and also unveiling the clipboard portal, which I prefer not to.	2020-05-14 22:53:58 +02:00

LibIPC: Share most of the code between {Client,Server}Connection

This patch introduces IPC::Connection which becomes the new base class
of ClientConnection and ServerConnection. Most of the functionality
has been hoisted up to the base class since almost all of it is useful
on both sides.

This gives us the ability to send synchronous messages in both
directions, which is needed for the WebContent server process.
Unlike other servers, WebContent does not mind blocking on a response
from its client.

LibIPC+Services: Make ClientConnection take socket as NonnullRefPtr

This avoids getting into the awkward situation where the socket is
still part-owned by main() in multi-instance service. Also it just
reads nicer.

Clipboard: Move the system clipboard to a dedicated service process :^)

This commit moves the clipboard from WindowServer into a new Clipboard
service program. Clipboard runs as the unprivileged "clipboard" user
and with a much tighter pledge than WindowServer.

To keep things working as before, all GUI::Application users now make
a connection to Clipboard after making the connection to WindowServer.
It could be interesting to connect to Clipboard on demand, but right
now that would necessitate expanding every GUI app's pledge to include
"unix" and also unveiling the clipboard portal, which I prefer not to.
