Now that AddressSpace itself is always SpinlockProtected, we don't
need to also wrap the RegionTree. Whoever has the AddressSpace locked
is free to poke around its tree.
This forces anyone who wants to look into and/or manipulate an address
space to lock it. And this replaces the previous, more flimsy, manual
spinlock use.
Note that pointers *into* the address space are not safe to use after
you unlock the space. We've got many issues like this, and we'll have
to track those down as wlel.
This makes locking them much more straightforward, and we can remove
a bunch of confusing use of AddressSpace::m_lock. That lock will also
be converted to use of SpinlockProtected in a subsequent patch.
While null StringViews are just as bad, these prevent the removal of
StringView(char const*) as that constructor accepts a nullptr.
No functional changes.
Each of these strings would previously rely on StringView's char const*
constructor overload, which would call __builtin_strlen on the string.
Since we now have operator ""sv, we can replace these with much simpler
versions. This opens the door to being able to remove
StringView(char const*).
No functional changes.
This compiler builtin abstracts away the specifics of fetching the frame
pointer. This will allow the KSyms.cpp to be build for the aarch64
target. While we're here, lets also change the
PerformanceEventBuffer.cpp to not rely on x86_64 specifics.
Previously register_string would return incorrect values when
called multiple times with the same input. This patch makes this
function return the same index, identical strings. This change was
required, as this functionality is now being used with read syscall
profiling, (#12465), which uses 'register_string' to registers file
path on every read syscall.
This only moves the issue, as PerformanceEventBuffer::add_process can't
fail yet, but this will allow us to remove the non-failable
Custody::absolute_path API.
When walking the stack to generate a perf_event sample, we now check
if a userspace stack frame points back into kernel memory.
It was possible to use this as an arbitrary kernel memory read. :^)
We now use AK::Error and AK::ErrorOr<T> in both kernel and userspace!
This was a slightly tedious refactoring that took a long time, so it's
not unlikely that some bugs crept in.
Nevertheless, it does pass basic functionality testing, and it's just
real nice to finally see the same pattern in all contexts. :^)
A new RegisterState header includes the platform specific RegisterState
header based on the platform being compiled.
The Aarch64 RegisterState header contains stubs for Debug
Making userspace provide a global string ID was silly, and made the API
extremely difficult to use correctly in a global profiling context.
Instead, simply make the kernel do the string ID allocation for us.
This also allows us to convert the string storage to a Vector in the
kernel (and an array in the JSON profile data.)
This syscall allows userspace to register a keyed string that appears in
a new "strings" JSON object in profile output.
This will be used to add custom strings to profile signposts. :^)
This allows tracing the syscalls made by a thread through the kernel's
performance event framework, which is similar in principle to strace.
Currently, this merely logs a stack backtrace to the current thread's
performance event buffer whenever a syscall is made, if profiling is
enabled. Future improvements could include tracing the arguments and
the return value, for example.
This commit converts naked `new`s to `AK::try_make` and `AK::try_create`
wherever possible. If the called constructor is private, this can not be
done, so we instead now use the standard-defined and compiler-agnostic
`new (nothrow)`.
Hook the kernel page fault handler and capture page fault events when
the fault has a current thread attached in TLS. We capture the eip and
ebp so we can unwind the stack and locate which pieces of code are
generating the most page faults.
