We had some inconsistencies before:
- Sometimes "The", sometimes "the"
- Sometimes trailing ".", sometimes no trailing "."
I picked the most common one (lowecase "the", trailing ".") and applied
it to all copyright headers.
By using the exact same string everywhere we can ensure nothing gets
missed during a global search (and replace), and that these
inconsistencies are not spread any further (as copyright headers are
commonly copied to new files).
SPDX License Identifiers are a more compact / standardized
way of representing file license information.

This was done with the `ambr` search and replace tool.

The previous implementation could allocate on insertion into the completed / pending
sub request vectors. There's no reason these can't be intrusive lists instead.
This is a very minor step towards improving the ability to handle OOM, as tracked by #6369
It might also help improve performance on the IO path in certain situations.
I'll benchmark that later.
This commit is very invasive, because Thread likes to take a pointer and write
to it. This means that translating between timespec/timeval/Time would have been
more difficult than just changing everything that hands a raw pointer to Thread,
in bulk.
(...and ASSERT_NOT_REACHED => VERIFY_NOT_REACHED)
Since all of these checks are done in release builds as well,
let's rename them to VERIFY to prevent confusion, as everyone is
used to assertions being compiled out in release.
We can introduce a new ASSERT macro that is specifically for debug
checks, but I'm doing this wholesale conversion first since we've
accumulated thousands of these already, and it's not immediately
obvious which ones are suitable for ASSERT.
Fix some problems with join blocks where the joining thread block
condition was added twice, which lead to a crash when trying to
unblock that condition a second time.
Deferred block condition evaluation by File objects were also not
properly keeping the File object alive, which lead to some random
crashes and corruption problems.
Other problems were caused by the fact that the Queued state didn't
handle signals/interruptions consistently. To solve these issues we
remove this state entirely, along with Thread::wait_on and change
the WaitQueue into a BlockCondition instead.
Also, deliver signals even if there isn't going to be a context switch
to another thread.
Fixes#4336 and #4330
Use the TimerQueue to expire blocking operations, which is one less thing
the Scheduler needs to check on every iteration.
Also, add a BlockTimeout class that will automatically handle relative or
absolute timeouts as well as overriding timeouts (e.g. socket timeouts)
more consistently.
Also, rework the TimerQueue class to be able to fire events from
any processor, which requires Timer to be RefCounted. Also allow
creating id-less timers for use by blocking operations.
This allows issuing asynchronous requests for devices and waiting
on the completion of the request. The requests can cascade into
multiple sub-requests.
Since IRQs may complete at any time, if the current process is no
longer the same that started the process, we need to swich the
paging context before accessing user buffers.
Change the PATA driver to use this model.
