POSIX requires that sigaction() and friends set a _process-wide_ signal
handler, so move signal handlers and flags inside Process.
This also fixes a "pid/tid confusion" FIXME, as we can now send the
signal to the process and let that decide which thread should get the
signal (which is the thread with tid==pid, but that's now the Process's
problem).
Note that each thread still retains its signal mask, as that is local to
each thread.
Arguments larger than 32bit need to be passed as a pointer on a 32bit
architectures. sys$profiling_enable has u64 event_mask argument,
which means that it needs to be passed as an pointer. Previously upper
32bits were filled by garbage.
Move the definitions for maximum argument and environment size to
Process.h from execve.cpp. This allows sysconf(_SC_ARG_MAX) to return
the actual argument maximum of 128 KiB to userspace.
This commit removes the usage of HashMap in Mutex, thereby making Mutex
be allocation-free.
In order to achieve this several simplifications were made to Mutex,
removing unused code-paths and extra VERIFYs:
* We no longer support 'upgrading' a shared lock holder to an
exclusive holder when it is the only shared holder and it did not
unlock the lock before relocking it as exclusive. NOTE: Unlike the
rest of these changes, this scenario is not VERIFY-able in an
allocation-free way, as a result the new LOCK_SHARED_UPGRADE_DEBUG
debug flag was added, this flag lets Mutex allocate in order to
detect such cases when debugging a deadlock.
* We no longer support checking if a Mutex is locked by the current
thread when the Mutex was not locked exclusively, the shared version
of this check was not used anywhere.
* We no longer support force unlocking/relocking a Mutex if the Mutex
was not locked exclusively, the shared version of these functions
was not used anywhere.
This ensures that everything allocated on the stack in Process::exec()
gets cleaned up. We had a few leaks related to the parsing of shebang
(#!) executables that get fixed by this.
This function is an extended version of `chmod(2)` that lets one control
whether to dereference symlinks, and specify a file descriptor to a
directory that will be used as the base for relative paths.
Previously we would crash the process immediately when a promise
violation was found during a syscall. This is error prone, as we
don't unwind the stack. This means that in certain cases we can
leak resources, like an OwnPtr / RefPtr tracked on the stack. Or
even leak a lock acquired in a ScopeLockLocker.
To remedy this situation we move the promise violation handling to
the syscall handler, right before we return to user space. This
allows the code to follow the normal unwind path, and grantees
there is no longer any cleanup that needs to occur.
The Process::require_promise() and Process::require_no_promises()
functions were modified to return ErrorOr<void> so we enforce that
the errors are always propagated by the caller.
This file refers to the controlling terminal associated with the current
process. It's specified by POSIX, and is used by ports like openssh to
interface with the terminal even if the standard input/output is
redirected to somewhere else.
Our implementation leverages ProcFS's existing facilities to create
process-specific symbolic links. In our setup, `/dev/tty` is a symbolic
link to `/proc/self/tty`, which itself is a symlink to the appropriate
`/dev/pts` entry. If no TTY is attached, `/dev/tty` is left dangling.
Now that the userland has a compatiblity wrapper for select(), the
kernel doesn't need to implement this syscall natively. The poll()
interface been around since 1987, any code still using select()
should be slapped silly.
Note: the SerenityOS source tree mostly uses select() and not poll()
despite SerenityOS having support for poll() since early 2019...
This includes a new Thread::Blocker called SignalBlocker which blocks
until a signal of a matching type is pending. The current Blocker
implementation in the Kernel is very complicated, but cleaning it up is
a different yak for a different day.
This allows userspace to trigger a full (FIXME) flush of a shared file
mapping to disk. We iterate over all the mapped pages in the VMObject
and write them out to the underlying inode, one by one. This is rather
naive, and there's lots of room for improvement.
Note that shared file mappings are currently not possible since mmap()
returns ENOTSUP for PROT_WRITE+MAP_SHARED. That restriction will be
removed in a subsequent commit. :^)
This isn't a complete conversion to ErrorOr<void>, but a good chunk.
The end goal here is to propagate buffer allocation failures to the
caller, and allow the use of TRY() with formatting functions.

Some places the warning is suppressed, because we do not want a const
object do have non-const access to the returned sub-object.
`off_t` is a 64-bit signed integer, so passing it in a register on i686
is not the best idea.
This fix gets us one step closer to making the LLVM port work.
