We have a new, improved string type coming up in AK (OOM aware, no null
state), and while it's going to use UTF-8, the name UTF8String is a
mouthful - so let's free up the String name by renaming the existing
class.
Making the old one have an annoying name will hopefully also help with
quick adoption :^)
We still log the error (perhaps in the future, we will only want to log
the error if there is no handler). But this allows callers to actually
handle errors to e.g. unblock waiters.
This change unfortunately cannot be atomically made without a single
commit changing everything.
Most of the important changes are in LibIPC/Connection.cpp,
LibIPC/ServerConnection.cpp and LibCore/LocalServer.cpp.
The notable changes are:
- IPCCompiler now generates the decode and decode_message functions such
that they take a Core::Stream::LocalSocket instead of the socket fd.
- IPC::Decoder now uses the receive_fd method of LocalSocket instead of
doing system calls directly on the fd.
- IPC::ConnectionBase and related classes now use the Stream API
functions.
- IPC::ServerConnection no longer constructs the socket itself; instead,
a convenience macro, IPC_CLIENT_CONNECTION, is used in place of
C_OBJECT and will generate a static try_create factory function for
the ServerConnection subclass. The subclass is now responsible for
passing the socket constructed in this function to its
ServerConnection base; the socket is passed as the first argument to
the constructor (as a NonnullOwnPtr<Core::Stream::LocalServer>) before
any other arguments.
- The functionality regarding taking over sockets from SystemServer has
been moved to LibIPC/SystemServerTakeover.cpp. The Core::LocalSocket
implementation of this functionality hasn't been deleted due to my
intention of removing this class in the near future and to reduce
noise on this (already quite noisy) PR.
Everyone used this hook in the same way: immediately accept() on the
socket and then do something with the newly accepted fd.
This patch simplifies the hook by having LocalServer do the accepting
automatically.

SystemServer only allowed a single socket to be created for a service
before this. Now, SystemServer will allow any amount of sockets. The
sockets can be defined like so:
[SomeService]
Socket=/tmp/portal/socket1,/tmp/portal/socket2,/tmp/portal/socket3
SocketPermissions=660,600
The last item in SocketPermissions is applied to the remainder of the
sockets in the Socket= line, so multiple sockets can have the same
permissions without having to repeat them.
Defining multiple sockets is not allowed for socket-activated services
at the moment, and wouldn't make much sense anyway.
This patch also makes socket takeovers more robust by removing the
assumption that the socket will always be passed in fd 3. Now, the
SOCKET_TAKEOVER environment variable carries information about which
endpoint corresponds to which socket, like so:
SOCKET_TAKEOVER=/tmp/portal/socket1:3 /tmp/portal/socket2:4
and LocalServer/LocalService will parse this automatically and select
the correct one. The old behavior of getting the default socket is
preserved so long as the service only requests a single socket in
SystemServer.ini.
