We now have a function to install a (currently default) vector
table, meaning that any exceptions (or interrupts for that matter)
will be caught by the processor and routed to one of the vectors
inside the table.
We should only look at the framebuffer structure members if the
MULTIBOOT_INFO_FRAMEBUFFER_INFO bit is set in the flags field.
Also add some logging if we ignored the fbdev command line argument
due to either not having a framebuffer provided by the bootloader, or
because we don't support the framebuffer format.
Creating pointers from arbitrary values is not a valid thing to do in
constexpr functions. Furthermore, this functions is always called with
runtime values anyways, so there's no use in having it be constexpr.
Instead, make it ALWAYS_INLINE.
The goal was to reduce common setup of messages. Changes:
* MailBox turned into singleton to follow existing patterns
* Removed device specific messages from MailBox requiring
clients to know the details instead
* Created base Message class which clients should deriver from
It really simplify the usage for more complicated message queues
like framebuffer setup - see followup commits.
This commit updates the Clang toolchain's version to 13.0.0, which comes
with better C++20 support and improved handling of new features by
clang-format. Due to the newly enabled `-Bsymbolic-functions` flag, our
Clang binaries will only be 2-4% slower than if we dynamically linked
them, but we save hundreds of megabytes of disk space.
The `BuildClang.sh` script has been reworked to build the entire
toolchain in just three steps: one for the compiler, one for GNU
binutils, and one for the runtime libraries. This reduces the complexity
of the build script, and will allow us to modify the CI configuration to
only rebuild the libraries when our libc headers change.
Most of the compile flags have been moved out to a separate CMake cache
file, similarly to how the Android and Fuchsia toolchains are
implemented within the LLVM repo. This provides a nicer interface than
the heaps of command-line arguments.
We no longer build separate toolchains for each architecture, as the
same Clang binary can compile code for multiple targets.
The horrible mess that `SERENITY_CLANG_ARCH` was, has been removed in
this commit. Clang happily accepts an `i686-pc-serenity` target triple,
which matches what our GCC toolchain accepts.
When booting on RPI3 firmware puts CPU in EL2 mode which is
different from QEMU's default EL3.
I've added logic to discover initial mode at boot
and then act accordingly. This results in Serenity corectly
switching to EL1 on target hardware now.
For now, this can only query microseconds since boot.
Use this to print a timestamp every second. This busy-loops
until a second has passed. This might be a good first use of
interrupts soon.
qemu used to not implement this timer at some point, but
it seems to work fine even in qemu now (qemu v 5.2.0).
After building and running
objcopy -O binary Build/aarch64/Kernel/Prekernel/Prekernel \
/media/sdcard/kernel8.img
things start booting on an actual RPi4 :^)
(Assuming the sdcard contains RPi firmware, an empty config.txt,
and no other kernel*.img files).
- .text now starts at 0x80000, where an actual (non-qemu) RPi expects
- use magic section name ".text.first" to make sure the linker script
puts the kernel entry point at the start of the .text section
- remove a few things from the x86 linker script that aren't needed
for aarch64 (yet?)
This moves Kernel/Prekernel/linker.ld unchanged to
Kernel/Prekernel/Arch/aarch64 and Kernel/Prekernel/Arch/x86.
The aarch64 will change in a future commit.
No behavior change.
As a demo, query the firmware version. `Meta/serenity.sh gdb aarch64`
can be used to observe that qemu puts 0x548E1 in x0 in response
to this mailbox message.
Replace the old logic where we would start with a host build, and swap
all the CMake compiler and target variables underneath it to trick
CMake into building for Serenity after we configured and built the Lagom
code generators.
The SuperBuild creates two ExternalProjects, one for Lagom and one for
Serenity. The Serenity project depends on the install stage for the
Lagom build. The SuperBuild also generates a CMakeToolchain file for the
Serenity build to use that replaces the old toolchain file that was only
used for Ports.
To ensure that code generators are rebuilt when core libraries such as
AK and LibCore are modified, developers will need to direct their manual
`ninja` invocations to the SuperBuild's binary directory instead of the
Serenity binary directory.
This commit includes warning coalescing and option style cleanup for the
affected CMakeLists in the Kernel, top level, and runtime support
libraries. A large part of the cleanup is replacing USE_CLANG_TOOLCHAIN
with the proper CMAKE_CXX_COMPILER_ID variable, which will no longer be
confused by a host clang compiler.
