Meta/Lagom/build seems to be the expected cmake output directory.
(It's hardcoded in Libraries/LibJS/Tests/run-tests.)
Add it to the project .gitignore
This memory range was set up using 2MB pages by the code in boot.S.
Because of that, the kernel image protection code didn't work, since it
assumed 4KB pages.
We now switch to 4KB pages during MemoryManager initialization. This
makes the kernel image protection code work correctly again. :^)
Since declarations are now hoisted and handled on scope entry, the job
of a VariableDeclaration becomes to actually initialize variables.
As such, we can remove the part where we insert variables into the
nearest relevant scope. Less work == more speed! :^)
"var" declarations are hoisted to the nearest function scope, while
"let" and "const" are hoisted to the nearest block scope.
This is done by the parser, which keeps two scope stacks, one stack
for the current var scope and one for the current let/const scope.
When the interpreter enters a scope, we walk all of the declarations
and insert them into the variable environment.
We don't support the temporal dead zone for let/const yet.
Instead of using a separate synchronization variable, just use the lock
holder TID for synchronization. This way, we only need to CAS when
first acquiring a lock.
Since the FlyString deduplication mechanism uses a HashTable, we know
that any StringImpl inside a non-null FlyString will already have its
lazily computed hash.
Instead of pushing the message, file name, line# and function name
separately, we now mash the message, file name and line# into a string
constant and pass that.
This means that the failure path only has to push a single address onto
the stack, reducing the code size and causing the compiler to inline
many more functions containing an assertions (e.g RefPtr::operator*())
Obviously if you wanted minimal size, you could turn assertions off
entirely, but I really like running with assertions, so let's make
a little effort to reduce their impact. :^)
The MDN example for creating a custom error type in javascript uses:
function CustomError(foo, message, fileName, lineNumber) {
var instance = new Error(message, fileName, lineNumber);
instance.name = 'CustomError';
instance.foo = foo;
Object.setPrototypeOf(instance, Object.getPrototypeOf(this));
return instance;
}
The name property on the Error prototype needs to be settable for
this to work properly.
The work I did to add assert as a native function in js
was a step in the wrong direction. Now that js supports
load() it makes sense to just move assert and anything
we want to add to the test harness into pure javascript.
The output of FunctionPrototype::to_string is now more in line
with the output in Firefox. The builtin constructors have been
extended to include their function name in the output.
The syscall wrapper for ptrace needs to return the peeked value when
using PT_PEEK.
Because of this, the user has to check errno to detect an error in
PT_PEEK.
This commit changes the actual syscall's interface (only for PT_PEEK) to
allow the syscall wrapper to detect an error and change errno.
PT_SETTREGS sets the regsiters of the traced thread. It can only be
used when the tracee is stopped.
Also, refactor ptrace.
The implementation was getting long and cluttered the alraedy large
Process.cpp file.
This commit moves the bulk of the implementation to Kernel/Ptrace.cpp,
and factors out peek & poke to separate methods of the Process class.
This was a missing feature in the PT_TRACEME command.
This feature allows the tracer to interact with the tracee before the
tracee has started executing its program.
It will be useful for automatically inserting a breakpoint at a
debugged program's entry point.
Before this commit, m_blocker was only set to null in Thread::block,
after the thread has been unblocked.
Starting with this commit, m_blocker is also set to null in
Thread::unblock.
This change will allow us to implement a missing feature of the PT_TRACE
command of the ptrace syscall - stopping the traced thread when it
exits the execve syscall.
That feature will be implemented by sending a blocking SIGSTOP to the
traced thread after it has executed the execve logic and before it
starts executing the new program in userspace.
However, since Process::exec arranges the tss to return to userspace
(the so-called "yield-teleport"), the code in Thread::block that should
be run after the thread unblocks, and sets m_blocker to null, never
actually runs.
Setting m_blocker to null in Thread::unblock allows us to avoid an
incorrect state where the thread is in a Running state but conatins a
pointer to a Blocker.
PT_POKE writes a single word to the tracee's address space.
Some caveats:
- If the user requests to write to an address in a read-only region, we
temporarily change the page's protections to allow it.
- If the user requests to write to a region that's backed by a
SharedInodeVMObject, we replace the vmobject with a PrivateIndoeVMObject.
We were hitting strcmp() in every variable lookup to see if the lookup
was for "this". Caching a FlyString("this") turns that check into one
pointer comparison instead. :^)
