They're really the same thing: a DNS packet can contain both questions and
answers, and there's a single bit in the header that determines whether the
packet represents a query or a response. It'll be simpler for us to represent
both types of packets using the same class.
This class can be both serialized and deserialized to/from a raw DNS packet.
Now that we no longer depend on the textual IPC format, we can pass IP addresses
in the format most code actually has and needs it: in binary. The only places we
actually have to deal with textual address representation is:
* When reading /etc/hosts, we have to parse textual addresses & convert them to
binary;
* When doing reverse lookups, we have to form a pseudo-hostname of the form
x.x.x.x.in-addr.arpa.
So we do the conversion in those two cases.
This also increases uniformity between how we handle A (IPv4 address) and other
resource record types. Namely, we now store the raw binary data as received from
a DNS server.
The ad-hoc IPC we were doing with LookupServer was kinda gross. With this,
LookupServer is a regular IPC server. In the future, we want to add more APIs
for LookupServer to talk to its clients (such as DHCPClient telling LookupServer
about the DNS server discovered via DHCP, and DNS-SD client browsing for
services), which calls for a more expressive IPC format; this is what LibIPC is
perfect for.
While the LookupServer side is using the regular LibIPC mechanics and patterns,
the LibC side has to hand-roll LibIPC format serialization without actually
using LibIPC. We might be able to get rid of this in the future, but for now it
has to be like that. The good news is the format is not that bad at all.
Currently, there is no way to know when in a profile's duration a
sample was taken. This commit adds a basic timestamp to the timeline
widget, and a black bar to show where the cursor is hovering over.
This achieves two things:
- Programs can now intentionally perform arbitrary syscalls by calling
syscall(). This allows us to work on things like syscall fuzzing.
- It restricts the ability of userspace to make syscalls to a single
4KB page of code. In order to call the kernel directly, an attacker
must now locate this page and call through it.
I originally wanted to batch the symbolication requests but that just
makes the client logic significantly more complicated with no real
benefit other than architectural feelgood points.
Since this is useful in many places, let's have a common implementation
of walking the stack of a given thread via /proc and symbolicating each
of the frames.
The /boot directory is only accessible to root by default, but anyone
wanting access to kernel symbols for development can get them by making
/boot/Kernel accessible to the "symbol" user.
Usage: bt <PID>
This program will print a symbolicated backtrace for the main thread of
the process with the given PID. It uses SymbolServer for the
symbolication.
There's a lot of room for improvement in this command, but it is pretty
neat already. :^)
This patch adds SymbolServer, a service daemon that provides
symbolication of ELF binaries. It has a very simple IPC API at the
moment that only turns addresses into symbol names.
This can be used to implement symbolication without having to do
in-process ELF parsing yourself. :^)
Using the text segment for the VM reservation ran into trouble when
there was a discrepancy between the p_filesz and p_memsz.
Simplify this mechanism and avoid trouble by making the reservation
as a MAP_PRIVATE | MAP_NORESERVE throwaway mapping instead.
Fixes#5225.
Document and HTMLElement now inherit from HTML::GlobalEventHandlers
which allows them to support "onfoo" event handler attributes.
These are assignable both via IDL attributes and content attributes.
Event listeners constructed this way get a special "attribute" flag
on them so we know which one to replace if you reassign them.
This also allows them to coexist with EventTarget.addEventListener().
This is all a bit sloppy, but it works decently for a first cut.
The Window object should also inherit GlobalEventHandlers, but since
we don't generate it from IDL, I haven't taken that step here.
Also this would be a lot nicer if we supported IDL mixins.
Add a new wrapping mode to the TextEditor that will wrap lines at the
spaces between words.
Replace the previous menubar checkbox 'Wrapping Mode' in HackStudio and
the TextEditor with an exclusive submenu which allows switching between
'No wrapping', 'Wrap anywhere' and 'Wrap at words'. 'Wrap anywhere' (the
new 'Wrap lines') is still the default mode.
Setting the wrapping mode in the constructors of the TextEditorWidget
and HackStudio has been removed, it is now set when constructing the
menubar actions.
When opening a file in the tree view with _double click_, the file name
was not the same as opening the same file with _right click > Open_.
This caused the opne_files_view to have the same file in it, but with
two different names.
Also, before calling the main program entry function, inform the kernel
that no more syscall regions can be registered.
This effectively bans syscalls from everywhere except LibC and
LibPthread. Pretty neat! :^)
