If we panic the kernel for a storage-related reason, we might as well be
helpful and print out a list of detected storage devices and their
partitions to help with debugging.
Reasons for such a panic include:
- No boot device with the given name found
- No boot device with the given UUID found
- Failing to open the root filesystem after determining a boot device
Before attempting to remove the device while handling an AHCI port
interrupt, check if m_connected_device is even non-null.
This happened during my bare metal run and caused a kernel panic.
There was a bug while calculating the next index in submit_sync_sqe
function. Use the NVMeQueue's class variable m_qdepth instead of the
hardcoded IO_QUEUE_SIZE.
Apologies for the enormous commit, but I don't see a way to split this
up nicely. In the vast majority of cases it's a simple change. A few
extra places can use TRY instead of manual error checking though. :^)
Instead, try to allocate the DMA buffer before trying to construct the
NVMeQueue. This allows us to fail early if we can't allocate the DMA
buffer before allocating and creating the heavier NVMeQueue object.
Only a generic struct definition was present for NVMeSubmission. To
improve type safety and clarity, added an union of NVMeSubmission
structs that are applicable to the command being submitted.
The CAP.TO is 0 based. Even though I don't see that mentioned in the
spec explicitly, all major OSs such as Linux, FreeBSD add 1 to the
CAP.TO while calculating the timeout.
IO::delay was added as a lazy alternative to looping with a timeout
error if the condition was not satisfied. Now that we have the
wait_for_ready function, remove the delay in the reset and start
controller function.
This mostly just moved the problem, as a lot of the callers are not
capable of propagating the errors themselves, but it's a step in the
right direction.
Since NVME devices end with a digit that indicates the node index we
cannot simply append a partition index. Instead, there will be a "p"
character as separator, e.g. /dev/nvme0n1p3 for the 3rd partition.
So, if the early device name ends in a digit we need to add this
separater before matching for the partition index.
If the partition index is omitted (as is the default) the root file
system is on a disk without any partition table (e.g. using QEMU).
This enables booting from the correct partition on an NVMe drive by
setting the command line variable root to e.g. root=/dev/nvme0n1p1
We need to use the volatile keyword when mapping the device registers,
or the compiler may optimize access, which lead to this QEMU error:
pci_nvme_ub_mmiord_toosmall in nvme_mmio_read: MMIO read smaller than
32-bits, offset=0x0
Add a basic NVMe driver support to serenity
based on NVMe spec 1.4.
The driver can support multiple NVMe drives (subsystems).
But in a NVMe drive, the driver can support one controller
with multiple namespaces.
Each core will get a separate NVMe Queue.
As the system lacks MSI support, PIN based interrupts are
used for IO.
Tested the NVMe support by replacing IDE driver
with the NVMe driver :^)
This will allow File and it's descendants to use RefCounted instead of
having a custom implementation of unref. (Since RefCounted calls
will_be_destroyed automatically)
This commit also removes an erroneous call to `before_removing` in
AHCIPort, this is a duplicate call, as the only reference to the device
is immediately dropped following the call, which in turns calls
`before_removing` via File::unref.
This was a premature optimization from the early days of SerenityOS.
The eternal heap was a simple bump pointer allocator over a static
byte array. My original idea was to avoid heap fragmentation and improve
data locality, but both ideas were rooted in cargo culting, not data.
We would reserve 4 MiB at boot and only ended up using ~256 KiB, wasting
the rest.
This patch replaces all kmalloc_eternal() usage by regular kmalloc().
In order to reduce our reliance on __builtin_{ffs, clz, ctz, popcount},
this commit removes all calls to these functions and replaces them with
the equivalent functions in AK/BuiltinWrappers.h.
Some calls of copy_to_user were converting Userspace<T*> to
Userspace<U*> via the implicit conversion to FlatPtr. Change them to use
the static_ptr_cast overload that is designed to express this conversion
Instead of repeating ourselves with the pattern of waiting for some
condition to be met, we can have a general method for this task,
and then we can provide the retry count, the required delay and a lambda
function for the checked condition.
Don't use interrupts when trying to reset a device that is connected to
a port on the AHCI controller, and instead poll for changes in status to
break out from the loop. At the worst case scenario we can wait 0.01
seconds for each SATA reset.
