Also, duplicate data in dbg() and klog() calls were removed.
In addition, leakage of virtual address to kernel log is prevented.
This is done by replacing kprintf() calls to dbg() calls with the
leaked data instead.
Also, other kprintf() calls were replaced with klog().
Background: DoubleBuffer is a handy buffer class in the kernel that
allows you to keep writing to it from the "outside" while the "inside"
reads from it. It's used for things like LocalSocket and TTY's.
Internally, it has a read buffer and a write buffer, but the two will
swap places when the read buffer is exhausted (by reading from it.)
Before this patch, it was internally implemented as two Vector<u8>
that we would swap between when the reader side had exhausted the data
in the read buffer. Now instead we preallocate a large KBuffer (64KB*2)
on DoubleBuffer construction and use that throughout its lifetime.
This removes all the kmalloc heap traffic caused by DoubleBuffers :^)
As suggested by Joshua, this commit adds the 2-clause BSD license as a
comment block to the top of every source file.
For the first pass, I've just added myself for simplicity. I encourage
everyone to add themselves as copyright holders of any file they've
added or modified in some significant way. If I've added myself in
error somewhere, feel free to replace it with the appropriate copyright
holder instead.
Going forward, all new source files should include a license header.
Instead of using the FIFO's memory address as part of its absolute path
identity, just use an incrementing FIFO index instead.
Note that this is not used for anything other than debugging (it helps
you identify which file descriptors refer to the same FIFO by looking
at /proc/PID/fds
This reverts commit 1cca5142af.
This appears to be causing intermittent triple-faults and I don't know
why yet, so I'll just revert it to keep the tree in decent shape.

After reading a bunch of POSIX specs, I've learned that a file descriptor
is the number that refers to a file description, not the description itself.
So this patch renames FileDescriptor to FileDescription, and Process now has
FileDescription* file_description(int fd).
