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 ByteBuffer (which always malloc() their storage) for
IPC message encoding, we now use a Vector<u8, 1024>, which means that
messages smaller than 1 KB avoid heap allocation entirely.
Allow everything to be built from the top level directory with just
'make', cleaned with 'make clean', and installed with 'make
install'. Also support these in any particular subdirectory.
Specifying 'make VERBOSE=1' will print each ld/g++/etc. command as
it runs.
Kernel and early host tools (IPCCompiler, etc.) are built as
object.host.o so that they don't conflict with other things built
with the cross-compiler.
A client that only ever does synchronous IPC calls from its side would
never actually process incoming asynchronous messages since they would
arrive while waiting for a synchronous response and then end up sitting
forever in the "unhandled messages" queue.
We now always handle unhandled messages using a deferred invocation.
This fixes the bug where Audio.MenuApplet didn't learn that the muted
state changed in response to its own request to change it. :^)
Instead of passing the PIDs back and forth in a handshake "Greet"
message, just use getsockopt(SO_PEERCRED) on both sides to get the same
information from the kernel.
This is a nice little simplification of the IPC protocol, although it
does not get rid of the handshake since we still have to pass the
"client ID" from the server to each client so they know how to refer
to themselves. This might not be necessary and we might be able to get
rid of this later on.
If a client sends an invalid window ID or similar to the WindowServer,
we'll now immediately mark them as misbehaving and disconnect them.
This might be too aggressive in some cases (window management, ...)
but it's just a place to start.
When draining the socket in IServerConnection, we would previously
handle each incoming (local endpoint) message as it came in.
This would cause unexpected things to happen while blocked waiting
for a synchronous response. That's definitely not what we want,
so this patch puts all of the incoming messages in a queue and does
a separate pass over the queue to handle everything in order.
This matches what we're already calling the server-side subclasses
better, though we'll probably want to find some better names for the
client-side classes eventually.
Client-side connection objects must now provide both client and server
endpoint types. When a message is received from the server side, we try
to decode it using both endpoint types and then send it to the right
place for handling.
This now makes it possible for AudioServer to send unsolicited messages
to its clients. This opens up a ton of possibilities :^)
Ports/.port_include.sh, Toolchain/BuildIt.sh, Toolchain/UseIt.sh
have been left largely untouched due to use of Bash-exclusive
functions and variables such as $BASH_SOURCE, pushd and popd.
This was a workaround to be able to build on case-insensitive file
systems where it might get confused about <string.h> vs <String.h>.
Let's just not support building that way, so String.h can have an
objectively nicer name. :^)
- Add IEndpoint::handle(IMessage), a big switch table on message type.
handle() will return a response message for synchronous messages,
and return nullptr otherwise.
- Use i32 instead of int for everything
- Make IMessage::encode() const
- Make IEndpoint::decode_message() static, this allows template code to
decode messages without an endpoint instance on hand.
