- Remove goofy _r suffix from syscall names.
- Don't take a signed buffer size.
- Use Userspace<T>.
- Make TTY::tty_name() return a String instead of a StringView.
This syscall allows a parent process to disown a child process, setting
its parent PID to 0.
Unparented processes are automatically reaped by the kernel upon exit,
and no sys$waitid() is required. This will make it much nicer to do
spawn-and-forget which is common in the GUI environment.
Allow passing in an optional timeout to Thread::block and move
the timeout check out of Thread::Blocker. This way all Blockers
implicitly support timeouts and don't need to implement it
themselves. Do however allow them to override timeouts (e.g.
for sockets).
By making the Process class RefCounted we don't really need
ProcessInspectionHandle anymore. This also fixes some race
conditions where a Process may be deleted while still being
used by ProcFS.
Also make sure to acquire the Process' lock when accessing
regions.
Last but not least, there's no reason why a thread can't be
scheduled while being inspected, though in practice it won't
happen anyway because the scheduler lock is held at the same
time.
Note: I switched from copying the single element out of the sched_param
struct, to copy struct it self as it is identical in functionality.
This way the types match up nicer with the Userpace<T> api's and it
conforms to the conventions used in other syscalls.
Since we already have the type information in the Userspace template,
it was a bit silly to cast manually everywhere. Just add a sufficiently
scary-sounding getter for a typed pointer.
Thanks @alimpfard for pointing out that I was being silly with tossing
out the type.
In the future we may want to make this API non-public as well.
This unbreaks the gcc and binutils ports.
Previously, when _SC_PAGESIZE was missing, these packages opted to
use their own versions of getpagesize which made their build fail
because of conflicting definitions of the function.
Use copy_{to,from}_user() in the various File::ioctl() implementations
instead of disabling SMAP wholesale in sys$ioctl().
This patch does not port IPv4Socket::ioctl() to those API's since that
will be more involved. That function now creates a local SmapDisabler.
This is something I've been meaning to do for a long time, and here we
finally go. This patch moves all sys$foo functions out of Process.cpp
and into files in Kernel/Syscalls/.
It's not exactly one syscall per file (although it could be, but I got
a bit tired of the repetitive work here..)
This makes hacking on individual syscalls a lot less painful since you
don't have to rebuild nearly as much code every time. I'm also hopeful
that this makes it easier to understand individual syscalls. :^)
