This patch adds the `USING_AK_GLOBALLY` macro which is enabled by
default, but can be overridden by build flags.
This is a step towards integrating Jakt and AK types.
Except for tangential accessors such as data(), there is no more feature
of FixedArray that is untested after this large expansion of its test
cases. These tests, with the help of the new NoAllocationGuard, also
test the allocation contract that was fixated in the last commit.
Hopefully this builds confidence in future Kernel uses of FixedArray
as well as its establishment in the real-time parts of the audio
subsystem. I'm excited :^)
Because we don't have our LibC on Lagom, the allocation guard global
flag doesn't exist and NoAllocationGuard fails to build on Lagom.
Whoops. For now, just disable NoAllocationGuard's functionality here.
NoAllocationGuard is an RAII stack guard that prevents allocations
while it exists. This is done through a thread-local global flag which
causes malloc to crash on a VERIFY if it is false. The guard allows for
recursion.
The intended use case for this class is in real-time audio code. In such
code, allocations are really bad, and this is an easy way of dynamically
enforcing the no-allocations rule while giving the user good feedback if
it is violated. Before real-time audio code is executed, e.g. in LibDSP,
a NoAllocationGuard is instantiated. This is not done with this commit,
as currently some code in LibDSP may still incorrectly allocate in real-
time situations.
Other use cases for the Kernel have also been added, so this commit
builds on the previous to add the support both in Userland and in the
Kernel.
