The end goal of this commit is to allow to boot on bare metal with no
PS/2 device connected to the system. It turned out that the original
code relied on the existence of the PS/2 keyboard, so VirtualConsole
called it even though ACPI indicated the there's no i8042 controller on
my real machine because I didn't plug any PS/2 device.
The code is much more flexible, so adding HID support for other type of
hardware (e.g. USB HID) could be much simpler.
Briefly describing the change, we have a new singleton called
HIDManagement, which is responsible to initialize the i8042 controller
if exists, and to enumerate its devices. I also abstracted a bit
things, so now every Human interface device is represented with the
HIDDevice class. Then, there are 2 types of it - the MouseDevice and
KeyboardDevice classes; both are responsible to handle the interface in
the DevFS.
PS2KeyboardDevice, PS2MouseDevice and VMWareMouseDevice classes are
responsible for handling the hardware-specific interface they are
assigned to. Therefore, they are inheriting from the IRQHandler class.
The system is extremely sensitive to heap allocations during heap
expansion. This was causing frequent OOM panics under various loads.
Work around the issue for now by putting the logging behind
KMALLOC_DEBUG. Ideally dmesgln() & friends would not reqiure any
heap allocations, but we're not there right now.
Fixes#5724.
The hierarchy is AHCIController, AHCIPortHandler, AHCIPort and
SATADiskDevice. Each AHCIController has at least one AHCIPortHandler.
An AHCIPortHandler is an interrupt handler that takes care of
enumeration of handled AHCI ports when an interrupt occurs. Each
AHCIPort takes care of one SATADiskDevice, and later on we can add
support for Port multiplier.
When we implement support of Message signalled interrupts, we can spawn
many AHCIPortHandlers, and allow each one of them to be responsible for
a set of AHCIPorts.
Leaking macros across headers is a terrible thing, but I can't think of
a better way of achieving this.
- We need some way of modifying debug macros from CMake to implement
ENABLE_ALL_THE_DEBUG_MACROS.
- We need some way of modifying debug macros in specific source files
because otherwise we need to rebuild too many files.
This was done using the following script:
