This compiles, and fixes two bugs:
- setpgid() confusion (see previous commit)
- tcsetpgrp() now allows to set a non-empty process group even if
the group leader has already died. This makes Serenity slightly
more POSIX-compatible.
This compiles, and contains exactly the same bugs as before.
The regex 'FIXME: PID/' should reveal all markers that I left behind, including:
- Incomplete conversion
- Issues or things that look fishy
- Actual bugs that will go wrong during runtime
The way getsockopt is implemented for socket types requires us to push
down Userspace<T> using into those interfaces. This change does so, and
utilizes proper copy implementations instead of the kind of haphazard
pointer dereferencing that was occurring there before.
This change mostly converts poll to Userspace<T> with the caveat
of the fds member of SC_poll_params. It's current usage is a bit
too gnarly for me to take on right now, this appears to need a lot
more love.
In addition to enlightening the syscall to use Userspace<T>, I've
also re-worked most of the handling to use validate_read_and_copy
instead of just directly de-referencing the user pointer. We also
appeared to be missing a re-evaluation of the fds array after the
thread block is awoken.
Utilizie Userspace<T> for the syscall argument itself, as well
as internally in the SC_futex_params struct.
We were double validating the SC_futex_params.timeout validation,
that was removed as well.
- Remove goofy _r suffix from syscall names.
- Don't take a signed buffer size.
- Use Userspace<T>.
- Make TTY::tty_name() return a String instead of a StringView.
This syscall allows a parent process to disown a child process, setting
its parent PID to 0.
Unparented processes are automatically reaped by the kernel upon exit,
and no sys$waitid() is required. This will make it much nicer to do
spawn-and-forget which is common in the GUI environment.
By making the Process class RefCounted we don't really need
ProcessInspectionHandle anymore. This also fixes some race
conditions where a Process may be deleted while still being
used by ProcFS.
Also make sure to acquire the Process' lock when accessing
regions.
Last but not least, there's no reason why a thread can't be
scheduled while being inspected, though in practice it won't
happen anyway because the scheduler lock is held at the same
time.
Note: I switched from copying the single element out of the sched_param
struct, to copy struct it self as it is identical in functionality.
This way the types match up nicer with the Userpace<T> api's and it
conforms to the conventions used in other syscalls.
Since we already have the type information in the Userspace template,
it was a bit silly to cast manually everywhere. Just add a sufficiently
scary-sounding getter for a typed pointer.
Thanks @alimpfard for pointing out that I was being silly with tossing
out the type.
In the future we may want to make this API non-public as well.
This is something I've been meaning to do for a long time, and here we
finally go. This patch moves all sys$foo functions out of Process.cpp
and into files in Kernel/Syscalls/.
It's not exactly one syscall per file (although it could be, but I got
a bit tired of the repetitive work here..)
This makes hacking on individual syscalls a lot less painful since you
don't have to rebuild nearly as much code every time. I'm also hopeful
that this makes it easier to understand individual syscalls. :^)
For now, only the non-standard _SC_NPROCESSORS_CONF and
_SC_NPROCESSORS_ONLN are implemented.
Use them to make ninja pick a better default -j value.
While here, make the ninja package script not fail if
no other port has been built yet.
The AT_* entries are placed after the environment variables, so that
they can be found by iterating until the end of the envp array, and then
going even further beyond :^)
When delivering urgent signals to the current thread
we need to check if we should be unblocked, and if not
we need to yield to another process.
We also need to make sure that we suppress context switches
during Process::exec() so that we don't clobber the registers
that it sets up (eip mainly) by a context switch. To be able
to do that we add the concept of a critical section, which are
similar to Process::m_in_irq but different in that they can be
requested at any time. Calls to Scheduler::yield and
Scheduler::donate_to will return instantly without triggering
a context switch, but the processor will then asynchronously
trigger a context switch once the critical section is left.
These new syscalls allow you to send and receive file descriptors over
a local domain socket. This will enable various privilege separation
techniques and other good stuff. :^)
ppoll() is similar() to poll(), but it takes its timeout
as timespec instead of as int, and it takes an additional
sigmask parameter.
Change the sys$poll parameters to match ppoll() and implement
poll() in terms of ppoll().
It looks like they're considered a bad idea, so let's not add
them before we need them. I figured it's good to have them in
git history if we ever do need them though, hence the add/remove
dance.
Add seteuid()/setegid() under _POSIX_SAVED_IDS semantics,
which also requires adding suid and sgid to Process, and
changing setuid()/setgid() to honor these semantics.
The exact semantics aren't specified by POSIX and differ
between different Unix implementations. This patch makes
serenity follow FreeBSD. The 2002 USENIX paper
"Setuid Demystified" explains the differences well.
In addition to seteuid() and setegid() this also adds
setreuid()/setregid() and setresuid()/setresgid(), and
the accessors getresuid()/getresgid().
Also reorder uid/euid functions so that they are the
same order everywhere (namely, the order that
geteuid()/getuid() already have).
You now have to pledge "sigaction" to change signal handlers/dispositions. This
is to prevent malicious code from messing with assertions (and segmentation
faults), which are normally expected to instantly terminate the process but can
do other things if you change signal disposition for them.
This was a holdover from the old times when each Process had a special
main thread with TID 0. Using it was a total crapshoot since it would
just return whichever thread was first on the process's thread list.
Now that I've removed all uses of it, we don't need it anymore. :^)
Instead of falling back to the suspicious "any_thread()" mechanism,
just fail with ESRCH if you try to kill() a PID that doesn't have a
corresponding TID.
This was supposed to be the foundation for some kind of pre-kernel
environment, but nobody is working on it right now, so let's move
everything back into the kernel and remove all the confusion.
We stopped using gettimeofday() in Core::EventLoop a while back,
in favor of clock_gettime() for monotonic time.
Maintaining an optimization for a syscall we're not using doesn't make
a lot of sense, so let's go back to the old-style sys$gettimeofday().
Ultimately we should not panic just because we can't fully commit a VM
region (by populating it with physical pages.)
This patch handles some of the situations where commit() can fail.
This patch adds PageFaultResponse::OutOfMemory which informs the fault
handler that we were unable to allocate a necessary physical page and
cannot continue.
In response to this, the kernel will crash the current process. Because
we are OOM, we can't symbolicate the crash like we normally would
(since the ELF symbolication code needs to allocate), so we also
communicate to Process::crash() that we're out of memory.
Now we can survive "allocate 300 MB" (only the allocate process dies.)
This is definitely not perfect and can easily end up killing a random
innocent other process who happened to allocate one page at the wrong
time, but it's a *lot* better than panicking on OOM. :^)
This is a special case that was previously not implemented.
The idea is that you can dispatch a signal to all other processes
the calling process has access to.
There was some minor refactoring to make the self signal logic
into a function so it could easily be easily re-used from do_killall.
Previously, when returning from a pthread's start_routine, we would
segfault. Now we instead implicitly call pthread_exit as specified in
the standard.
pthread_create now creates a thread running the new
pthread_create_helper, which properly manages the calling and exiting
of the start_routine supplied to pthread_create. To accomplish this,
the thread's stack initialization has been moved out of
sys$create_thread and into the userspace function create_thread.
PT_SETTREGS sets the regsiters of the traced thread. It can only be
used when the tracee is stopped.
Also, refactor ptrace.
The implementation was getting long and cluttered the alraedy large
Process.cpp file.
This commit moves the bulk of the implementation to Kernel/Ptrace.cpp,
and factors out peek & poke to separate methods of the Process class.
This patch adds the minherit() syscall originally invented by OpenBSD.
Only the MAP_INHERIT_ZERO mode is supported for now. If set on an mmap
region, that region will be zeroed out on fork().
This commit adds a basic implementation of
the ptrace syscall, which allows one process
(the tracer) to control another process (the tracee).
While a process is being traced, it is stopped whenever a signal is
received (other than SIGCONT).
The tracer can start tracing another thread with PT_ATTACH,
which causes the tracee to stop.
From there, the tracer can use PT_CONTINUE
to continue the execution of the tracee,
or use other request codes (which haven't been implemented yet)
to modify the state of the tracee.
Additional request codes are PT_SYSCALL, which causes the tracee to
continue exection but stop at the next entry or exit from a syscall,
and PT_GETREGS which fethces the last saved register set of the tracee
(can be used to inspect syscall arguments and return value).
A special request code is PT_TRACE_ME, which is issued by the tracee
and causes it to stop when it calls execve and wait for the
tracer to attach.
This was only used by the mechanism for mapping executables into each
process's own address space. Now that we remap executables on demand
when needed for symbolication, this can go away.
Previously we would map the entire executable of a program in its own
address space (but make it unavailable to userspace code.)
This patch removes that and changes the symbolication code to remap
the executable on demand (and into the kernel's own address space
instead of the process address space.)
This opens up a couple of further simplifications that will follow.
Add an extra out-parameter to shbuf_get() that receives the size of the
shared buffer. That way we don't need to make a separate syscall to
get the size, which we always did immediately after.
This feels a lot more consistent and Unixy:
create_shared_buffer() => shbuf_create()
share_buffer_with() => shbuf_allow_pid()
share_buffer_globally() => shbuf_allow_all()
get_shared_buffer() => shbuf_get()
release_shared_buffer() => shbuf_release()
seal_shared_buffer() => shbuf_seal()
get_shared_buffer_size() => shbuf_get_size()
Also, "shared_buffer_id" is shortened to "shbuf_id" all around.
This allows a process wich has more than 1 thread to call exec, even
from a thread. This kills all the other threads, but it won't wait for
them to finish, just makes sure that they are not in a running/runable
state.
In the case where a thread does exec, the new program PID will be the
thread TID, to keep the PID == TID in the new process.
This introduces a new function inside the Process class,
kill_threads_except_self which is called on exit() too (exit with
multiple threads wasn't properly working either).
Inside the Lock class, there is the need for a new function,
clear_waiters, which removes all the waiters from the
Process::big_lock. This is needed since after a exit/exec, there should
be no other threads waiting for this lock, the threads should be simply
killed. Only queued threads should wait for this lock at this point,
since blocked threads are handled in set_should_die.
Replace Process::m_being_inspected with an inspector reference count.
This prevents an assertion from firing when inspecting the same process
in /proc from multiple processes at the same time.
It was trivially reproducible by opening multiple FileManagers.
This mechanism wasn't actually used to create any WeakPtr<Process>.
Such pointers would be pretty hard to work with anyway, due to the
multi-step destruction ritual of Process.
Calling shutdown prevents further reads and/or writes on a socket.
We should do a few more things based on the type of socket, but this
initial implementation just puts the basic mechanism in place.
Work towards #428.
sys$waitid() takes an explicit description of whether it's waiting for a single
process with the given PID, all of the children, a group, etc., and returns its
info as a siginfo_t.
It also doesn't automatically imply WEXITED, which clears up the confusion in
the kernel.
This patch introduces sys$perf_event() with two event types:
- PERF_EVENT_MALLOC
- PERF_EVENT_FREE
After the first call to sys$perf_event(), a process will begin keeping
these events in a buffer. When the process dies, that buffer will be
written out to "perfcore" in the current directory unless that filename
is already taken.
This is probably not the best way to do this, but it's a start and will
make it possible to start doing memory allocation profiling. :^)
When using dbg() in the kernel, the output is automatically prefixed
with [Process(PID:TID)]. This makes it a lot easier to understand which
thread is generating the output.
This patch also cleans up some common logging messages and removes the
now-unnecessary "dbg() << *current << ..." pattern.
This syscall is a complement to pledge() and adds the same sort of
incremental relinquishing of capabilities for filesystem access.
The first call to unveil() will "drop a veil" on the process, and from
now on, only unveiled parts of the filesystem are visible to it.
Each call to unveil() specifies a path to either a directory or a file
along with permissions for that path. The permissions are a combination
of the following:
- r: Read access (like the "rpath" promise)
- w: Write access (like the "wpath" promise)
- x: Execute access
- c: Create/remove access (like the "cpath" promise)
Attempts to open a path that has not been unveiled with fail with
ENOENT. If the unveiled path lacks sufficient permissions, it will fail
with EACCES.
Like pledge(), subsequent calls to unveil() with the same path can only
remove permissions, not add them.
Once you call unveil(nullptr, nullptr), the veil is locked, and it's no
longer possible to unveil any more paths for the process, ever.
This concept comes from OpenBSD, and their implementation does various
things differently, I'm sure. This is just a first implementation for
SerenityOS, and we'll keep improving on it as we go. :^)
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.
The syscall is now called sys$open(), but it behaves like the old sys$openat().
In userspace, open_with_path_length() is made a wrapper over openat_with_path_length().
This patch adds a new "accept" promise that allows you to call accept()
on an already listening socket. This lets programs set up a socket for
for listening and then dropping "inet" and/or "unix" so that only
incoming (and existing) connections are allowed from that point on.
No new outgoing connections or listening server sockets can be created.
In addition to accept() it also allows getsockopt() with SOL_SOCKET
and SO_PEERCRED, which is used to find the PID/UID/GID of the socket
peer. This is used by our IPC library when creating shared buffers that
should only be accessible to a specific peer process.
This allows us to drop "unix" in WindowServer and LookupServer. :^)
It also makes the debugging/introspection RPC sockets in CEventLoop
based programs work again.
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.
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.
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.
While I was updating syscalls to stop passing null-terminated strings,
I added some helpful struct types:
- StringArgument { const char*; size_t; }
- ImmutableBuffer<Data, Size> { const Data*; Size; }
- MutableBuffer<Data, Size> { Data*; Size; }
The Process class has some convenience functions for validating and
optionally extracting the contents from these structs:
- get_syscall_path_argument(StringArgument)
- validate_and_copy_string_from_user(StringArgument)
- validate(ImmutableBuffer)
- validate(MutableBuffer)
There's still so much code around this and I'm wondering if we should
generate most of it instead. Possible nice little project.
In order to preserve the absolute path of the process root, we save the
custody used by chroot() before stripping it to become the new "/".
There's probably a better way to do this.
The chroot() syscall now allows the superuser to isolate a process into
a specific subtree of the filesystem. This is not strictly permanent,
as it is also possible for a superuser to break *out* of a chroot, but
it is a useful mechanism for isolating unprivileged processes.
The VFS now uses the current process's root_directory() as the root for
path resolution purposes. The root directory is stored as an uncached
Custody in the Process object.
Note that I'm developing some helper types in the Syscall namespace as
I go here. Once I settle on some nice types, I will convert all the
other syscalls to use them as well.
The userspace execve() wrapper now measures all the strings and puts
them in a neat and tidy structure on the stack.
This way we know exactly how much to copy in the kernel, and we don't
have to use the SMAP-violating validate_read_str(). :^)
When loading a new executable, we now map the ELF image in kernel-only
memory and parse it there. Then we use copy_to_user() when initializing
writable regions with data from the executable.
Note that the exec() syscall still disables SMAP protection and will
require additional work. This patch only affects kernel-originated
process spawns.
This encourages callers to strongly reference file descriptions while
working with them.
This fixes a use-after-free issue where one thread would close() an
open fd while another thread was blocked on it becoming readable.
Test: Kernel/uaf-close-while-blocked-in-read.cpp
This code never worked, as was never used for anything. We can build
a much better SHM implementation on top of TmpFS or similar when we
get to the point when we need one.
Split a region into two/three if the desired mprotect range is a strict
subset of an existing region. We can then set the access bits on a new
region that is just our desired range and add both the new
desired subregion and the leftovers back to our page tables.
This patch introduces a syscall:
int set_thread_boost(int tid, int amount)
You can use this to add a permanent boost value to the effective thread
priority of any thread with your UID (or any thread in the system if
you are the superuser.)
This is quite crude, but opens up some interesting opportunities. :^)
Threads now have numeric priorities with a base priority in the 1-99
range.
Whenever a runnable thread is *not* scheduled, its effective priority
is incremented by 1. This is tracked in Thread::m_extra_priority.
The effective priority of a thread is m_priority + m_extra_priority.
When a runnable thread *is* scheduled, its m_extra_priority is reset to
zero and the effective priority returns to base.
This means that lower-priority threads will always eventually get
scheduled to run, once its effective priority becomes high enough to
exceed the base priority of threads "above" it.
The previous values for ThreadPriority (Low, Normal and High) are now
replaced as follows:
Low -> 10
Normal -> 30
High -> 50
In other words, it will take 20 ticks for a "Low" priority thread to
get to "Normal" effective priority, and another 20 to reach "High".
This is not perfect, and I've used some quite naive data structures,
but I think the mechanism will allow us to build various new and
interesting optimizations, and we can figure out better data structures
later on. :^)
This is memory that's loaded from an inode (file) but not modified in
memory, so still identical to what's on disk. This kind of memory can
be freed and reloaded transparently from disk if needed.
Dirty private memory is all memory in non-inode-backed mappings that's
process-private, meaning it's not shared with any other process.
This patch exposes that number via SystemMonitor, giving us an idea of
how much memory each process is responsible for all on its own.
We don't care about dead processes that were once members of a specific
process group.
This was causing us to try and send SIGINT to already-dead processes
when pressing Ctrl+C in a terminal whose pgrp they were once in.
Fixes#922.
This patch implements a simple version of the futex (fast userspace
mutex) API in the kernel and uses it to make the pthread_cond_t API's
block instead of busily sched_yield().
An arbitrary userspace address is passed to the kernel as a "token"
that identifies the futex and you can then FUTEX_WAIT and FUTEX_WAKE
that specific userspace address.
FUTEX_WAIT corresponds to pthread_cond_wait() and FUTEX_WAKE is used
for pthread_cond_signal() and pthread_cond_broadcast().
I'm pretty sure I'm missing something in this implementation, but it's
hopefully okay for a start. :^)
This is a little strange, but it's how I understand things should work.
The first thread in a new process now has TID == PID.
Additional threads subsequently spawned in that process all have unique
TID's generated by the PID allocator. TIDs are now globally unique.
The idea of all processes reliably having a main thread was nice in
some ways, but cumbersome in others. More importantly, it didn't match
up with POSIX thread semantics, so let's move away from it.
This thread gets rid of Process::main_thread() and you now we just have
a bunch of Thread objects floating around each Process.
When the finalizer nukes the last Thread in a Process, it will also
tear down the Process.
There's a bunch of more things to fix around this, but this is where we
get started :^)
This patch adds a single "kernel info page" that is mappable read-only
by any process and contains the current time of day.
This is then used to implement a version of gettimeofday() that doesn't
have to make a syscall.
To protect against race condition issues, the info page also has a
serial number which is incremented whenever the kernel updates the
contents of the page. Make sure to verify that the serial number is the
same before and after reading the information you want from the page.
The kernel now supports basic profiling of all the threads in a process
by calling profiling_enable(pid_t). You finish the profiling by calling
profiling_disable(pid_t).
This all works by recording thread stacks when the timer interrupt
fires and the current thread is in a process being profiled.
Note that symbolication is deferred until profiling_disable() to avoid
adding more noise than necessary to the profile.
A simple "/bin/profile" command is included here that can be used to
start/stop profiling like so:
$ profile 10 on
... wait ...
$ profile 10 off
After a profile has been recorded, it can be fetched in /proc/profile
There are various limits (or "bugs") on this mechanism at the moment:
- Only one process can be profiled at a time.
- We allocate 8MB for the samples, if you use more space, things will
not work, and probably break a bit.
- Things will probably fall apart if the profiled process dies during
profiling, or while extracing /proc/profile
This patch makes SharedBuffer use a PurgeableVMObject as its underlying
memory object.
A new syscall is added to control the volatile flag of a SharedBuffer.
It's now possible to get purgeable memory by using mmap(MAP_PURGEABLE).
Purgeable memory has a "volatile" flag that can be set using madvise():
- madvise(..., MADV_SET_VOLATILE)
- madvise(..., MADV_SET_NONVOLATILE)
When in the "volatile" state, the kernel may take away the underlying
physical memory pages at any time, without notifying the owner.
This gives you a guilt discount when caching very large things. :^)
Setting a purgeable region to non-volatile will return whether or not
the memory has been taken away by the kernel while being volatile.
Basically, if madvise(..., MADV_SET_NONVOLATILE) returns 1, that means
the memory was purged while volatile, and whatever was in that piece
of memory needs to be reconstructed before use.
The main thread of each kernel/user process will take the name of
the process. Extra threads will get a fancy new name
"ProcessName[<tid>]".
Thread backtraces now list the thread name in addtion to tid.
Add the thread name to /proc/all (should it get its own proc
file?).
Add two new syscalls, set_thread_name and get_thread_name.
It's now possible to load a .o file into the kernel via a syscall.
The kernel will perform all the necessary ELF relocations, and then
call the "module_init" symbol in the loaded module.
Add an initial implementation of pthread attributes for:
* detach state (joinable, detached)
* schedule params (just priority)
* guard page size (as skeleton) (requires kernel support maybe?)
* stack size and user-provided stack location (4 or 8 MB only, must be aligned)
Add some tests too, to the thread test program.
Also, LibC: Move pthread declarations to sys/types.h, where they belong.
This can be implemented entirely in userspace by calling tcgetattr().
To avoid screwing up the syscall indexes, this patch also adds a
mechanism for removing a syscall without shifting the index of other
syscalls.
Note that ports will still have to be rebuilt after this change,
as their LibC code will try to make the isatty() syscall on startup.
Have pthread_create() allocate a stack and passing it to the kernel
instead of this work happening in the kernel. The more of this we can
do in userspace, the better.
This patch also unexposes the raw create_thread() and exit_thread()
syscalls since they are now only used by LibPthread anyway.
It's now possible to block until another thread in the same process has
exited. We can also retrieve its exit value, which is whatever value it
passed to pthread_exit(). :^)
This patch adds pthread_create() and pthread_exit(), which currently
simply wrap our existing create_thread() and exit_thread() syscalls.
LibThread is also ported to using LibPthread.
POSIX's openat() is very similar to open(), except you also provide a
file descriptor referring to a directory from which relative paths
should be resolved.
Passing it the magical fd number AT_FDCWD means "resolve from current
directory" (which is indeed also what open() normally does.)
This fixes libarchive's bsdtar, since it was trying to do something
extremely wrong in the absence of openat() support. The issue has
recently been fixed upstream in libarchive:
https://github.com/libarchive/libarchive/issues/1239
However, we should have openat() support anyway, so I went ahead and
implemented it. :^)
Fixes#748.
Instead of the big ugly switch statement, build a lookup table using
the syscall enumeration macro.
This greatly simplifies the syscall implementation. :^)
It's not safe to use a raw pointer for Process::m_tty. A pseudoterminal
pair will disappear when file descriptors are closed, and we'd end up
looking dangly. Just use a RefPtr.
Scheduling priority is now set at the thread level instead of at the
process level.
This is a step towards allowing processes to set different priorities
for threads. There's no userspace API for that yet, since only the main
thread's priority is affected by sched_setparam().
Add the ability to both pass arguments to scripts with shebangs
(./script argument1 argument2) and to specify them in the shebang line
(#!/usr/local/bin/bash -x -e)
Fixes#585
The way it gets the entropy and blasts it to the buffer is pretty
ugly IMHO, but it does work for now. (It should be replaced, by
