We now have a function to install a (currently default) vector
table, meaning that any exceptions (or interrupts for that matter)
will be caught by the processor and routed to one of the vectors
inside the table.
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.
These functions used to return booleans which withheld useful
error information for callers. Internally they would suppress
and convert Error objects. We now log or propagate these errors
up the stack.
This device will assist userspace to manage hotplug events.
A userspace application reads a DeviceEvent entry until the return value
is zero which indicates no events that are queued and waiting for
processing.
Trying to read with a buffer smaller than sizeof(DeviceEvent) results in
EOVERFLOW.
For now, there's no ioctl mechanism for this device but in the future an
acknowledgement mechanism can be implemented via ioctl(2) interface.
Apparently there was a wrong calculation result when we sent parameters
from TextModeConsole::clear_vga_row method - and we should stick to the
x, y mechanism of the clear method instead of doing the same calculation
which made it to happen twice actually.
These checks in `sys$execve` could trip up the system whenever you try
to execute an `.so` file. For example, double-clicking `libwasm.so` in
Terminal crashes the kernel.
This changes the program header alignment checks to reflect the same
checks in LibELF, and passes the requested alignment on to
`::try_allocate_range()`.
This was easily done, as the Kernel and Userland don't actually share
any of the APIs exposed by it, so instead the Kernel APIs were moved to
the Kernel, and the Userland APIs stayed in LibKeyboard.
This has multiple advantages:
* The non OOM-fallible String is not longer used for storing the
character map name in the Kernel
* The kernel no longer has to link to the userland LibKeyboard code
* A lot of #ifdef KERNEL cruft can be removed from LibKeyboard
There can only be a limited number of functions (only 8).
Also, consider the start bus of the PCI domain when trying to enumerate
other host bridges on bus 0, device 0, functions 1-7 (function 0 is the
main host bridge).
We were unconditionally trying to update it in the interrupt, which
would depend on the timer interrupt not being received too soon after
the timers are initialized (before the time page was initialized),
which was the case when using HPET timers via the ACPI tables, but not
when using the PIT when ACPI was disabled.
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.
We were already using a non-intrusive RedBlackTree, and since the kernel
regions tree is non-owning, this is a trivial conversion that makes a
bunch of the tree operations infallible (by being allocation-free.) :^)
PageDirectory gets initialized step-by-step in
PageDirectory::try_create_for_userspace(). This initialization may fail
anywhere in this function - for example, we may not be able to
allocate a directory table, in which case
PageDirectory::try_create_for_userspace() will return a null pointer.
We recognize this condition and early-return ENOMEM. However, at this
point, we need to correctly destruct the only partially initialized
PageDirectory. Previously, PageDirectory::~PageDirectory() would assume
that the object it was destructing was always fully initialized. It now
uses the new helper PageDirectory::is_cr3_initialized() to correctly
recognize when the directory table was not yet initialized. This helper
checks if the pointer to the directory table is null. Only if it is not
null does the destructor try to fetch the directory table using
PageDirectory::cr3().
Since the inline capacity of the Vector return type was not specified
explicitly, the vector was automatically copied to a 0-length inline
capacity one, essentially eliminating the optimization.
These infallible resource factory functions were only there to ease the
conversion to the new factory functions. Since all child classes of
VMObject now use the fallible resource factory functions, we don't
need the infallible versions anymore.
This commit moves the allocation of the resources required for
SharedInodeVMObject from its constructors to its factory functions.
We're making this change to expose the fallibility of the allocation.
