Structures declarations changed __attribute__((__packed__))
to [[gnu::packed]] in ACPI & DMI definitions.
Also, declarations of array of pointers in ACPI RSDT/XSDT are correct
now. In addition to that, now we have a declaration of the ACPI MADT
table & the table entries.
Also, PCI Initializer dismiss() now deletes the object correctly, and
the PCI initialization process no longer use the DMI decoder to
determine if PCI is supported.
grub configuration files include an entry to boot the OS without
ACPI support.
mmap() & mmap_region() methods are removed from ACPI & DMI components,
and we replace them with the new MM.allocate_kernel_region() helper.
Instead of doing a raw calculation for each VM address, from now on we
can use helper functions to do perform those calculations in a neat,
reusable and readable way.
We now can create a cacheable Region, so when map() is called, if a
Region is cacheable then all the virtual memory space being allocated
to it will be marked as not cache disabled.
In addition to that, OS components can create a Region that will be
mapped to a specific physical address by using the appropriate helper
method.
This makes the implementation easier to follow, but also fixes multiple issues
with the old implementation. In particular, it now deals properly with . and ..
in paths, including around mount points.
Hopefully there aren't many new bugs this introduces :^)
If the last character was the separator and keep_empty is true, the
previous if statement would have already appended the last empty part,
so no need to do this again.
This was even more problematic, because the result of split_view() is
expected to consist of true substrings that are usable with the
StringView::substring_view_starting_*_substring() methods, not of
equal strings located elsewhere.

Add "Link", "ActiveLink" and "VisitedLink" colors to the system theme
definition, and implement support for them in LibHTML.
Note that <body link="foo" alink="bar" vlink="baz"> takes precedence
over the system colors. Author style also takes precedence, since we
only fetch the system color in case the CSS color is -libhtml-link.
This is needed to eliminate a race in Thread::wait_on() where we'd
otherwise have to wait until after unlocking the process lock before
we can disable interrupts.
CArgsParser::parse_next_param did not properly ensure that, when
a param required a following argument, there were enough parameters left to
complete the parse. This meant that params_left could become negative,
avoiding parse_next_param's termination condition, and cause a segfault
when reading from argv with an out of bounds index.
This fixes the check to ensure that we do in fact have the right amount
of parameters and also adds an assertion to ensure that params_left does
not become negative.
This patch changes how exec() figures out which program image to
actually load. Previously, we opened the path to our main executable in
find_shebang_interpreter_for_executable, read the first page (or less,
if the file was smaller) and then decided whether to recurse with the
interpreter instead. We then then re-opened the main executable in
do_exec.
However, since we now want to parse the ELF header and Program Headers
of an elf image before even doing any memory region work, we can change
the way this whole process works. We open the file and read (up to) the
first page in exec() itself, then pass just the page and the amount read
to find_shebang_interpreter_for_executable. Since we now have that page
and the FileDescription for the main executable handy, we can do a few
things. First, validate the ELF header and ELF program headers for any
shenanigans. ELF32 Little Endian i386 only, please. Second, we can grab
the PT_INTERP interpreter from any ET_DYN files, and open that guy right
away if it exists. Finally, we can pass the main executable's and
optionally the PT_INTERP interpreter's file descriptions down to do_exec
and not have to feel guilty about opening the file twice.
In do_exec, we now have a choice. Are we going to load the main
executable, or the interpreter? We could load both, but it'll be way
easier for the inital pass on the RTLD if we only load the interpreter.
Then it can load the main executable itself like any old shared object,
just, the one with main in it :). Later on we can load both of them
into memory and the RTLD can relocate itself before trying to do
anything. The way it's written now the RTLD will get dibs on its
requested virtual addresses being the actual virtual addresses.
These will make sure there's no funny business or funny offsets in the
main ELF header or each Program Header. More can still be done (like
validating section headers), but this is a good start
Right now there is a significant amount of boiler plate code required
to validate user mode parameters in syscalls. In an attempt to reduce
this a bit, introduce validate_read_and_copy_typed which combines the
usermode address check and does the copy internally if the validation
passes. This cleans up a little bit of code from a significant amount
of syscalls.
It looks like setkeymap was missed when
the SMAP functionality was introduced.
Disable SMAP only in the scope where we
actually read the usermode addresses.
Now that the templated version of copy_from_user exists
their is normally no reason to use the version which
takes the number of bytes to copy. Move to the templated
version where possible.
Introduce the 'debug-kernel' script to allow developers to
quickly attach a debugger to the QEMU debug remote. The
setting (-s) is already enabled by ./run today when using
QEMU for virtualisation.
If the system is running under QEMU, the debugger
will break in when the script is run. If you add
the -S option to QEMU it will wait for the debugger
to connect before booting the kernel. This allows
you to debug the init/boot process.
Personally I use cgdb instead of gdb, so I opted
to make the debugger used by the script customizable
via an environment variable.
This change also adds -g3 to the kernel build so that
rich debug symbols are available in the kernel binary.
Since a chroot is in many ways similar to a separate root mount, we can also
apply mount flags to it as if it was an actual mount. These flags will apply
whenever the chrooted process accesses its root directory, but not when other
processes access this same directory for the outside. Since it's common to
chdir("/") immediately after chrooting (so that files accessed through the
current directory inherit the same mount flags), this effectively allows one to
apply additional limitations to a process confined inside a chroot.
To this effect, sys$chroot() gains a mount_flags argument (exposed as
chroot_with_mount_flags() in userspace) which can be set to all the same values
as the flags argument for sys$mount(), and additionally to -1 to keep the flags
set for that file system. Note that passing 0 as mount_flags will unset any
flags that may have been set for the file system, not keep them.
Instead of looking up device metadata and then looking up a device by that
metadata explicitly, just use VFS::open(). This also means that attempting to
mount a device residing on a MS_NODEV file system will properly fail.
