This is dirty but pretty cool! If we have a pending, unmasked signal for
a process that's blocked inside the kernel, we set up alternate stacks
for that process and unblock it to execute the signal handler.
A slightly different return trampoline is used here: since we need to
get back into the kernel, a dedicated syscall is used (sys$sigreturn.)
This restores the TSS contents of the process to the state it was in
while we were originally blocking in the kernel.
NOTE: There's currently only one "kernel resume TSS" so signal nesting
definitely won't work.
Processes are either alive (with many substates), dead or forgiven.
A dead process is forgiven when the parent waitpid()s on it.
Dead orphans are also forgiven.
There's a lot of work to be done around this.
Also keep the canonical errno list in LibC for now. The kernel gets it
from there. This makes building 3rd party code easier.
..also fix broken strchr().
It only works for sending a signal to a process that's in userspace code.
We implement reception by synthesizing a PUSHA+PUSHF in the receiving process
(operating on values in the TSS.)
The TSS CS:EIP is then rerouted to the signal handler and a tiny return
trampoline is constructed in a dedicated region in the receiving process.
Also hacked up /bin/kill to be able to send arbitrary signals (kill -N PID)
Implemented some syscalls: dup(), dup2(), getdtablesize().
FileHandle is now a retainable, since that's needed for dup()'ed fd's.
I didn't really test any of this beyond a basic smoke check.
sys$fork() now clones all writable regions with per-page COW bits.
The pages are then mapped read-only and we handle a PF by COWing the pages.
This is quite delightful. Obviously there's lots of work to do still,
and it needs better data structures, but the general concept works.
This turned out way better than the old code. ELF loading is now quite
straightforward, and we don't need the weird concept of subregions anymore.
Next step is to respect the is_writable flag.
We don't do anything useful with the data yet, but I'm gonna rewrite
the layout code to run off of the program header table instead.
This will allow us to map .text and .rodata sections in read-only memory.
