This fixes an issue in SystemMonitor where old data would linger in the
table views after selecting a process owned by another user.
Since we can no longer read /proc/PID/* unless PID belongs to us,
we will now present empty views for these processes. :^)
When selecting an element in the browser's DOM inspector, we now also
show the resolved CSS properties (and their values) for that element.
Since the inspector was growing a bit more complex, I moved it out of
the "show inspector" action callback and into its own class.
In the future, we will probably want to migrate the inspector down to
LibHTML to make it accessible to other clients of the library, but for
now we can keep working on it inside Browser. :^)
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.
For dynamic loading, the symbol bind of a symbol actually doesn't
matter. We could do what old glibc did and try to find a strong
symbol for any weak definitions, but the ELF spec doesn't require
it and they changed that a few years ago anyway. So, moot point. :)
We were not sending the ID of the window that was listening for window
management (WM) events along with the WM messages. They only included
the "target" window's ID.
Since the taskbar's single window had the first window ID for its own
connection to the WindowServer, it meant that it would only receive
WM events for the first window ID in other processes as well.
This broke when I ported WindowServer to LibIPC.
Fix this by including the WM listener ID in all WM messages, and since
we're here anyway, get rid of a bunch of unnecessary indirection where
we were passing WM events through the WindowServer event loop before
sending them to the listener.
ELFDynamicObject::load looks a lot better with all the steps
re-organized into helpers.
Add plt_trampoline.S to handle PLT fixups for lazy loading.
Add the needed trampoline-trampolines in ELFDynamicObject to get to
the proper relocations and to return the symbol back to the assembly
method to call into from the PLT once we return back to user code.
We weren't calling the method here before because it was ill-formed.
No start files meant that we got the front half of the init section but
not the back half (no 'ret' in _init!). Now that we have the proper
crtbeginS and crtendS files from libgcc to help us out, we can assume
that DSOs will have the proper _init method defined.
The scrollbar width must be factored in, and one too many
m_line_spacing were being factored into the height. These caused an
initial terminal opening in 80x25 to get resized right away and
shrunk down to 77x24.
This patch also adds some missing relocation defines to exec_elf.h,
and a few helper classes/methods to ELFImage so that we can use it
for our dynamically loaded libs and not just main program images from
the kernel :)
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 removes a bunch of JsonValue copying from the hot path in thread
statistics fetching.
Also pre-size the thread statistics vector since we know the final size
up front. :^)
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.
The widget layout system currently works by having layouts size the
children of a widgets. The children then get resize events, giving them
a chance to lay out their own children, etc.
In keeping with this, we need to handle the resize event before calling
do_layout() in a widget, since the resize event handler may do things
that end up affecting the layout, but layout should not affect the
resize event since the event comes from the widget parent, not itself.
LibCore timers now have a TimerShouldFireWhenNotVisible flag which is
set to "No" by default.
If "No", the timer will not be fired by the event loop if it's within
a CObject tree whose nearest GWindow ancestor is currently not visible
for timer purposes. (Specificially, this means that the window is
either minimized or fully occluded, and so does not want to fire timers
just to update the UI.)
This is another nice step towards a calm and serene operating system.
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.
Palette is now a value wrapper around a NonnullRefPtr<PaletteImpl>.
A new function, set_color(ColorRole, Color) implements a simple
copy-on-write mechanism so that we're sharing the PaletteImpl in the
common case, but allowing you to create custom palettes if you like,
by getting a GWidget's palette, modifying it, and then assigning the
modified palette to the widget via GWidget::set_palette().
Use this to make PaintBrush show its palette colors once again.
Fixes#943.
Lock each directory before entering it so when using -j, the same
dependency isn't built more than once at a time.
This doesn't get full -j parallelism though, since one make child
will be sitting idle waiting for flock to receive its lock and
continue making (which should then do nothing since it will have
been built already). Unfortunately there's not much that can be
done to fix that since it can't proceed until its dependency is
built by another make process.
When filling in some missing part of a window (typically happens during
interactive window resize) we now use the ColorRole::Background from
the system theme palette instead of expecting the clients to send us
the same information when creating windows.
WindowServer now tracks whether windows are occluded (meaning that
they are completely covered by one or more opaque windows sitting above
them.) This state is communicated to the windows via WindowStateChanged
messages, which then allow GWindow to mark its backing store volatile.
This reduces the effective memory impact of windows that are not at all
visible to the user. Very cool. :^)
Compiling LibCore on macOS is needed if one wants to compile host tools (like IPCCompiler) on a non Linux host. These changes could be possibly reverted once "event loop" functionality and "base library" (Vector, String etc.) will be split in two separate libraries,
updating all relevant projects.
