We now use GLazyWidget for all the secondary tabs, which makes the
program start up way faster than before.
There's a noticeable delay when you click on the "PCI Devices" tab
for the first time, but that's definitely better than always eating
that delay before seeing a window at all. :^)
Here's how you can use this to speed up startup time:
auto widget = GLazyWidget::construct();
widget->on_first_show = [](auto& self) {
self.set_layout(...);
...
};
Basically, it allows you to delay building the widget subtree until
it's shown for the first time.
If we resize/maximize the window, we might end up with some lines in
history that had a different length than the current terminal width.
That's okay, so let's not crash because of it.
Fixes#620.
This patch adds three separate per-process fault counters:
- Inode faults
An inode fault happens when we've memory-mapped a file from disk
and we end up having to load 1 page (4KB) of the file into memory.
- Zero faults
Memory returned by mmap() is lazily zeroed out. Every time we have
to zero out 1 page, we count a zero fault.
- CoW faults
VM objects can be shared by multiple mappings that make their own
unique copy iff they want to modify it. The typical reason here is
memory shared between a parent and child process.
If we didn't find anything else that wants to run, we don't need to
update the current thread's TSS since we're just gonna return to the
same thread anyway.
This patch overloads Inode::is_directory() with a faster version that
doesn't require instantiating the whole InodeMetadata.
If you have an Ext2FSInode&, calling is_directory() should be instant
since we can just look directly at the raw inode bits.
We need these for PhysicalPage objects. Ultimately I'd like to get rid
of these objects entirely, but while we still have to deal with them,
let's at least handle large demand a bit better.
Instead of allocating and populating a Copy-on-Write bitmap for each
Region up front, wait until we actually clone the Region for sharing
with another process.
In most cases, we never need any CoW bits and we save ourselves a lot
of kmalloc() memory and time.
When splitting an Region that's already the result of an earlier split,
we have to take the Region's offset-in-VMObject into account since it
may be non-zero.
GFilePicker
- Fixed GFilePicker to use new ref-counted construct method to stop crashing on open dialog.
- PaintBrush is still crashing on open dialog due to an unrelated issue.
PaintBrush
- Created 16x16 icon for PaintBrush
- Moved Open option into App menu.
- Changed help menu to make use of the standardized About dialog.
If we want to make a new entry in the disk cache when it's completely
full of dirty blocks, we'll now synchronously flush the writes at that
point. Maybe it's not ideal, but at least we can keep going.
This way clients are not required to have instantiated ByteBuffers
and can choose whatever memory scheme works best for them.
Also converted some of the Ext2FS code to use stack buffers instead.
Instead of having DiskBackedFS allocate a ByteBuffer, leave it to each
client to provide buffer space.
This is significantly faster in many cases where we can use a stack
buffer and avoid heap allocation entirely.
The hashmap cache was ridiculously slow and hurt us more than it helped
us. This patch replaces it with a flat memory cache that keeps up to
10'000 blocks in cache with a simple dirty bit.
The syncd task will wake up periodically and call flush_writes() on all
file systems, which now causes us to traverse the cache and write all
dirty blocks to disk.
There's a ton of room for improvement here, but this itself is already
drastically better when doing repeated GCC invocations.
