We now have BlockResult::WokeNormally and BlockResult::NotBlocked,
both of which indicate no error. We can no longer just check for
BlockResult::WokeNormally and assume anything else must be an
interruption.
The Lock class still permits no reason, but for everything else
require a reason to be passed to Thread::wait_on. This makes it
easier to diagnose why a Thread is in Queued state.
Random now gets entropy from the following drivers:
- KeyboardDevice
- PATAChannel
- PS2MouseDevice
- E1000NetworkAdapter
- RTL8139NetworkAdapter
Of these devices, PS2MouseDevice and PATAChannel provide the vast
majority of the entropy.
These new syscalls allow you to send and receive file descriptors over
a local domain socket. This will enable various privilege separation
techniques and other good stuff. :^)
We're going to make use of it in the next commit. But the idea is we want to
know how this File (more specifically, InodeFile) was opened in order to decide
how chown()/chmod() should behave, in particular whether it should be allowed or
not. Note that many other File operations, such as read(), write(), and ioctl(),
already require the caller to pass a FileDescription.
This was supposed to be the foundation for some kind of pre-kernel
environment, but nobody is working on it right now, so let's move
everything back into the kernel and remove all the confusion.
Since a Region is basically a view into a potentially larger VMObject,
it was always necessary to include the Region starting offset when
accessing its underlying physical pages.
Until now, you had to do that manually, but this patch adds a simple
Region::physical_page() for read-only access and a physical_page_slot()
when you want a mutable reference to the RefPtr<PhysicalPage> itself.
A lot of code is simplified by making use of this.
This commit is one step forward for pluggable driver modules.
Instead of creating instances of network adapter classes, we let
their detect() methods to figure out if there are existing devices
to initialize.
The PCI access layer was composed of a bunch of virtual functions that
did nothing but call other virtual functions. The first layer was never
overridden so there was no need for them to be virtual.
This patch removes the indirection and moves logic from PCI::Access
down into the various PCI::get_foo() helpers that were the sole users.
This patch adds a way for a socket to ask to be routed through a
specific interface.
Currently, this option only applies to sending, however, it should also
apply to receiving...somehow :^)
This patch relaxes how we think about UDP packets being "for us" a bit;
the proper way to handle this would be to also check if the matched
socket has SO_BROADCAST set, but we don't have that :)
This is not a complete fix, since spurious IRQs under heavy loads can
still occur. However, this fix limits the amount of spurious IRQs.
It is encouraged to provide a better fix in the future, probably
something that takes into account handling of PCI level-triggered
interrupts.
A new IP address or a new network mask can be specified in the command
line arguments of ifconfig to replace the old values of a given network
adapter. Additionally, more information is being printed for each adapter.
Also, duplicate data in dbg() and klog() calls were removed.
In addition, leakage of virtual address to kernel log is prevented.
This is done by replacing kprintf() calls to dbg() calls with the
leaked data instead.
Also, other kprintf() calls were replaced with klog().
This was only used by HashTable::dump() which I used when doing the
first HashTable implementation. Removing this allows us to also remove
most includes of <AK/kstdio.h>.
