We need to account for how many shared lock instances the current
thread owns, so that we can properly release such references when
yielding execution.
We also need to release the process lock when donating.
When the main executable needs an interpreter, we load the requested
interpreter program, and pass to it an open file decsriptor to the main
executable via the auxiliary vector.
Note that we do not allocate a TLS region for the interpreter.
This should catch more malformed ELF files earlier than simply
checking the ELF header alone. Also change the API of
validate_program_headers to take the interpreter_path by pointer. This
makes it less awkward to call when we don't care about the interpreter,
and just want the validation.
This makes the Scheduler a lot leaner by not having to evaluate
block conditions every time it is invoked. Instead evaluate them as
the states change, and unblock threads at that point.
This also implements some more waitid/waitpid/wait features and
behavior. For example, WUNTRACED and WNOWAIT are now supported. And
wait will now not return EINTR when SIGCHLD is delivered at the
same time.
We were leaking a ref on the executed inode in successful calls to
sys$execve(). This meant that once a binary had ever been executed,
it was impossible to remove it from the file system.
The execve system call is particularly finicky since the function
does not return normally on success, so extra care must be taken to
ensure nothing is kept alive by stack variables.
There is a big NOTE comment about this, and yet the bug still got in.
It would be nice to enforce this, but I'm unsure how.
g_scheduler_lock cannot safely be acquired after Thread::m_lock
because another processor may already hold g_scheduler_lock and wait
for the same Thread::m_lock.
When obeying FD_CLOEXEC, we don't need to explicitly call close() on
all the FileDescriptions. We can just clear them out from the process
fd table. ~FileDescription() will call close() anyway.
This fixes an issue where TelnetServer would shut down accepted sockets
when exec'ing a shell for them. Since the parent process still has the
socket open, we should not force-close it. Just let go.
There are plenty of places in the kernel that aren't
checking if they actually got their allocation.
This fixes some of them, but definitely not all.
Fixes#3390Fixes#3391
Also, let's make find_one_free_page() return nullptr
if it doesn't get a free index. This stops the kernel
crashing when out of memory and allows memory purging
to take place again.
Fixes#3487
Since the CPU already does almost all necessary validation steps
for us, we don't really need to attempt to do this. Doing it
ourselves doesn't really work very reliably, because we'd have to
account for other processors modifying virtual memory, and we'd
have to account for e.g. pages not being able to be allocated
due to insufficient resources.
So change the copy_to/from_user (and associated helper functions)
to use the new safe_memcpy, which will return whether it succeeded
or not. The only manual validation step needed (which the CPU
can't perform for us) is making sure the pointers provided by user
mode aren't pointing to kernel mappings.
To make it easier to read/write from/to either kernel or user mode
data add the UserOrKernelBuffer helper class, which will internally
either use copy_from/to_user or directly memcpy, or pass the data
through directly using a temporary buffer on the stack.
Last but not least we need to keep syscall params trivial as we
need to copy them from/to user mode using copy_from/to_user.
Since "rings" typically refer to code execution and user processes
can also execute in ring 0, rename these functions to more accurately
describe what they mean: kernel processes and user processes.
In c3d231616c we added the atomic variable
m_have_any_unmasked_pending_signals tracking the state of pending signals.
Add helper functions that automatically update this variable as needed.
We need to wait until a thread is fully set up and ready for running
before attempting to deliver a signal. Otherwise we may not have a
user stack yet.
Also, remove the Skip0SchedulerPasses and Skip1SchedulerPass thread
states that we don't really need anymore with software context switching.
Fixes the kernel crash reported in #3419
The behaviour of the PT_TRACEME feature has been broken for some time,
this change fixes it.
When this ptrace flag is used, the traced process should be paused
before exiting execve.
We previously were sending the SIGSTOP signal at a stage where
interrupts are disabled, and the traced process continued executing
normally, without pausing and waiting for the tracer.
This change fixes it.
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
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. :^)
