Commit ec7d535 only partially handled the case of flexible day periods
rolling over midnight, in that it only worked for hours after midnight.
For example, the en locale defines a day period range of [21:00, 06:00).
The previous method of adding 24 hours to the given hour would change
e.g. 23:00 to 47:00, which isn't valid.
Previously, end block was inconsistent. GUIDPartitionTable treated
end block as an inclusive bound, while MBRPartitionTable and
EBRPartitionTable treated end block as an exclusive bound.
Now all three treat end block as an inclusive upper bound.
This adds a new application PartitionEditor which will eventually be
used to create and edit partition tables. Since LibPartition does not
know how to write partition tables yet, it is currently read-only.
Devices are discovered by scanning /dev for block device files.
Since block devices are chmod 600, PartitionEditor be must run as root.
By default Serenity uses the entire disk for the ext2 filesystem
without a partition table. This isn't useful for testing as the
partition list for the default disk will be empty. To test properly,
I created a few disk images using various partitioning schemes
(MBR, EBR, and GPT) and attached them using the following command:
export SERENITY_EXTRA_QEMU_ARGS="
-drive file=/path/to/mbr.img,format=raw,index=1,media=disk
-drive file=/path/to/ebr.img,format=raw,index=2,media=disk
-drive file=/path/to/gpt.img,format=raw,index=3,media=disk"
The existing File::is_device() helpers don't distinguish between
block and char devices. This commit adds File::is_block_device() and
File::is_char_device() helpers which are more specific.
Previously, PartitionTable was constructed using a Kernel::StorageDevice
making it only usable in the kernel. This commit adds a new constructor
that takes a Core::File instead, making it usable in userland as well.
This also adds the m_block_size field which stores the block size of the
underlying device obtained by calling StorageDevice::block_size() in the
kernel or by using the STORAGE_DEVICE_GET_BLOCK_SIZE ioctl in userland.
This avoids the need for an #ifdef every time block size is needed.
This commit creates a new library LibPartition which will contain
partition related code sharable between Kernel and Userland and
includes DiskPartitionMetadata as the first shared class.
This adds a "temporary promises for the dynamic-linker" flag ('-d')
to the "pledge" utility.
Example usage:
pledge -d -p "stdio rpath" id
Without the '-d' flag, id would crash because the dynamic linker
requires 'prot_exec'.
When this flag is used and the program to be run is dynamically linked,
"pledge" adds promises that are required by the dynamic linker
to the promise set provided by the user.
The dynamic linker will later "give up" the pledge promises it no
longer requires.
Note that as part of this commit semaphore.cpp is excluded from the
DynamicLoader, as the dynamic loader does not build with pthread.cpp
which semaphore.cpp uses.
This helps ensure random pointers are not passed in as semaphores, but
more importantly once named semaphores are implemented, this will
ensure that random files are not used as semaphores.
As noted, we should probably handle calc() parsing as part of parsing
other values. eg, any `<length>` can be a `calc()` that returns a
length, but we currently have to manually handle that everywhere that
doesn't use the `Parser::parse_css_value(ComponentValue)` method.
When a `calc()` is resolved, it can only return a Percentage value if
the requested type is Percentage. In all other cases, it returns a
concrete value.
eg, a `calc()` with Lengths and Percentages in will always resolve to a
Length, never a Percentage. This means we can just return Length
directly instead of LengthPercentage, which simplifies things in a few
places.
This is mainly so we can easily read that matrix later, but also has the
benefit of only calculating the matrix once, instead of every time we
paint. :^)
Also, made the `reference_length` parameter optional for the lambda that
extracts transform-function parameters, since it is only needed to
resolve `LengthPercentage` parameters.
Before performing intrinsic sizing layout on a box, we now check if its
containing block has automatic size in the relevant axis, and if so,
we fetch the size of the nearest containing block ancestor with a size.
