This moves Kernel/Prekernel/linker.ld unchanged to
Kernel/Prekernel/Arch/aarch64 and Kernel/Prekernel/Arch/x86.
The aarch64 will change in a future commit.
No behavior change.
As a demo, query the firmware version. `Meta/serenity.sh gdb aarch64`
can be used to observe that qemu puts 0x548E1 in x0 in response
to this mailbox message.
Replace the old logic where we would start with a host build, and swap
all the CMake compiler and target variables underneath it to trick
CMake into building for Serenity after we configured and built the Lagom
code generators.
The SuperBuild creates two ExternalProjects, one for Lagom and one for
Serenity. The Serenity project depends on the install stage for the
Lagom build. The SuperBuild also generates a CMakeToolchain file for the
Serenity build to use that replaces the old toolchain file that was only
used for Ports.
To ensure that code generators are rebuilt when core libraries such as
AK and LibCore are modified, developers will need to direct their manual
`ninja` invocations to the SuperBuild's binary directory instead of the
Serenity binary directory.
This commit includes warning coalescing and option style cleanup for the
affected CMakeLists in the Kernel, top level, and runtime support
libraries. A large part of the cleanup is replacing USE_CLANG_TOOLCHAIN
with the proper CMAKE_CXX_COMPILER_ID variable, which will no longer be
confused by a host clang compiler.
The better fix is to have a linker script. We'll need this to set
the entry point to 0x80000 for bare-metal builds anyways. But I'd
like to get some UART output in qemu before I add this (otherwise
I can't check if the bare-metal version does anything), so put
in this temporary kludge for now.
Needed for functions that have local variables.
In time we need to share this between aarch64 and intel, but while
we figure out what exactly the aarch64 Prekernel should do, let's
duplicate this.
Else, function-local statics create calls to
__cxa_guard_acquire / __cxa_guard_release on aarch64, which we don't
(yet?) implement. Since Prekernel is single-threaded, just sidestep
that for now.
It isn't needed.
Also, we stopped linking Kernel against it in 67f0c0d5f0. libsupc++
depends on symbols like free() or realloc() which we removed from
Kernel/StdLib.cpp after 67f0c0d5f0 and which don't exist in Prekernel
either.
(It also happens to make the aarc64 link fail in less obvious ways.)
Add a dummy Arch/aarch64/boot.S that for now does nothing but
let all processor cores sleep.
For now, none of the actual Prekernel code is built for aarch64.
The pattern of having Prekernel inherit all of the build flags of the
Kernel, and then disabling some flags by adding `-fno-<flag>` options
to then disable those options doesn't work in all scenarios. For example
the ASAN flag `-fasan-shadow-offset=<offset>` has no option to disable
it once it's been passed, so in a future change where this flag is added
we need to be able to disable it cleanly.
The cleaner way is to just allow the Prekernel CMake logic to filter out
the COMPILE_OPTIONS specified for that specific target. This allows us
to remove individual options without trashing all inherited options.
I was working on some more KASAN changes and realized the system
no longer links when passing -DENABLE_KERNEL_ADDRESS_SANITIZER=ON.
Prekernel will likely never have KASAN support given it's limited
environment, so just suppress it's usage.
This enables further work on implementing KASLR by adding relocation
support to the pre-kernel and updating the kernel to be less dependent
on specific virtual memory layouts.
This allows us to specify virtual addresses for things the kernel should
access via virtual addresses later on. By doing this we can make the
kernel independent from specific physical addresses.
Previously the kernel relied on a fixed offset between virtual and
physical addresses based on the kernel's load address. This allows us
to specify an independent offset.
GCC and Clang allow us to inject a call to a function named
__sanitizer_cov_trace_pc on every edge. This function has to be defined
by us. By noting down the caller in that function we can trace the code
we have encountered during execution. Such information is used by
coverage guided fuzzers like AFL and LibFuzzer to determine if a new
input resulted in a new code path. This makes fuzzing much more
effective.
Additionally this adds a basic KCOV implementation. KCOV is an API that
allows user space to request the kernel to start collecting coverage
information for a given user space thread. Furthermore KCOV then exposes
the collected program counters to user space via a BlockDevice which can
be mmaped from user space.
This work is required to add effective support for fuzzing SerenityOS to
the Syzkaller syscall fuzzer. :^) :^)
Depending on the exact layout of the .ksyms section the kernel would
fail to boot because the kernel_load_end variable didn't account for the
section's size.
This implements a simple bootloader that is capable of loading ELF64
kernel images. It does this by using QEMU/GRUB to load the kernel image
from disk and pass it to our bootloader as a Multiboot module.
The bootloader then parses the ELF image and sets it up appropriately.
The kernel's entry point is a C++ function with architecture-native
code.
