The following command was used to clang-format these files:
clang-format-18 -i $(find . \
-not \( -path "./\.*" -prune \) \
-not \( -path "./Base/*" -prune \) \
-not \( -path "./Build/*" -prune \) \
-not \( -path "./Toolchain/*" -prune \) \

There was a recent release of clang-format version 18.1.5 which fixes
errant spaces around `->` in these files.
We have many places in the kernel code that we have boolean flags that
are only set once, and never reset again but are checked multiple times
before and after the time they're being set, which matches the purpose
of the SetOnce class.
The following command was used to clang-format these files:
clang-format-18 -i $(find . \
-not \( -path "./\.*" -prune \) \

There are a couple of weird cases where clang-format now thinks that a
pointer access in an initializer list, e.g. `m_member(ptr->foo)`, is a
lambda return statement, and it puts spaces around the `->`.
These changes are compatible with clang-format 16 and will be mandatory
when we eventually bump clang-format version. So, since there are no
real downsides, let's commit them now.
Simplify core methods in the VirtIO bus handling code by ensuring proper
error propagation. This makes initialization of queues, handling changes
in device configuration, and other core patterns more readable as well.
It also allows us to remove the obnoxious pattern of checking for
boolean "success" and if we get false answer then returning an actual
errno code.
The VirtIO specification defines many types of devices with different
purposes, and it also defines 3 possible transport mediums where devices
could be connected to the host machine.
We only care about the PCIe transport, but this commit puts the actual
foundations for supporting the lean MMIO transport too in the future.
To ensure things are kept abstracted but still functional, the VirtIO
transport code is responsible for what is deemed as related to an actual
transport type - allocation of interrupt handlers and tinkering with low
level transport-related registers, etc.
This has KString, KBuffer, DoubleBuffer, KBufferBuilder, IOWindow,
UserOrKernelBuffer and ScopedCritical classes being moved to the
Kernel/Library subdirectory.
Also, move the panic and assertions handling code to that directory.
Rename the initialize method to initialize_virtio_resources so it's
clear what this method is intended for.
To ensure healthier device initialization, we could also return the type
of ErrorOr<void> from this method, so in all overriden instances and in
the original method code, we could leverage TRY() pattern which also
does simplify the code a bit.
This configuration exposes a suboptimal mechanism to access other
VirtIO device configurations. It is also the only configuration to use a
zero length for a configuration structure, and specify a valid BAR which
triggered a kernel panic when attaching a virtio-gpu-pci device before
95b15e4901 was applied.
The real solution for that problem is to ignore this configuration type
because we never actually use it. It means that we can VERIFY that all
other configuration types have a valid length, as being expected.
These configurations are simply invalid. Ignoring those allow us to boot
with the virtio-gpu-pci device (in addition to the already supported
virtio-vga PCI device).
This patch switches away from {Nonnull,}LockRefPtr to the non-locking
smart pointers throughout the kernel.
I've looked at the handful of places where these were being persisted
and I don't see any race situations.
Note that the process file descriptor table (Process::m_fds) was already
guarded via MutexProtected.
There are now 2 separate classes for almost the same object type:
- EnumerableDeviceIdentifier, which is used in the enumeration code for
all PCI host controller classes. This is allowed to be moved and
copied, as it doesn't support ref-counting.
- DeviceIdentifier, which inherits from EnumerableDeviceIdentifier. This
class uses ref-counting, and is not allowed to be copied. It has a
spinlock member in its structure to allow safely executing complicated
IO sequences on a PCI device and its space configuration.
There's a static method that allows a quick conversion from
EnumerableDeviceIdentifier to DeviceIdentifier while creating a
NonnullRefPtr out of it.
The reason for doing this is for the sake of integrity and reliablity of
the system in 2 places:
- Ensure that "complicated" tasks that rely on manipulating PCI device
registers are done in a safe manner. For example, determining a PCI
BAR space size requires multiple read and writes to the same register,
and if another CPU tries to do something else with our selected
register, then the result will be a catastrophe.
- Allow the PCI API to have a united form around a shared object which
actually holds much more data than the PCI::Address structure. This is
fundamental if we want to do certain types of optimizations, and be
able to support more features of the PCI bus in the foreseeable
future.
This patch already has several implications:
- All PCI::Device(s) hold a reference to a DeviceIdentifier structure
being given originally from the PCI::Access singleton. This means that
all instances of DeviceIdentifier structures are located in one place,
and all references are pointing to that location. This ensures that
locking the operation spinlock will take effect in all the appropriate
places.
- We no longer support adding PCI host controllers and then immediately
allow for enumerating it with a lambda function. It was found that
this method is extremely broken and too much complicated to work
reliably with the new paradigm being introduced in this patch. This
means that for Volume Management Devices (Intel VMD devices), we
simply first enumerate the PCI bus for such devices in the storage
code, and if we find a device, we attach it in the PCI::Access method
which will scan for devices behind that bridge and will add new
DeviceIdentifier(s) objects to its internal Vector. Afterwards, we
just continue as usual with scanning for actual storage controllers,
so we will find a corresponding NVMe controllers if there were any
behind that VMD bridge.
A virtual method named device_name() was added to
Kernel::PCI to support logging the PCI::Device name
and address using dmesgln_pci. Previously, PCI::Device
did not store the device name.
All devices inheriting from PCI::Device now use dmesgln_pci where
they previously used dmesgln.
This step would ideally not have been necessary (increases amount of
refactoring and templates necessary, which in turn increases build
times), but it gives us a couple of nice properties:
- SpinlockProtected inside Singleton (a very common combination) can now
obtain any lock rank just via the template parameter. It was not
previously possible to do this with SingletonInstanceCreator magic.
- SpinlockProtected's lock rank is now mandatory; this is the majority
of cases and allows us to see where we're still missing proper ranks.
- The type already informs us what lock rank a lock has, which aids code
readability and (possibly, if gdb cooperates) lock mismatch debugging.
- The rank of a lock can no longer be dynamic, which is not something we
wanted in the first place (or made use of). Locks randomly changing
their rank sounds like a disaster waiting to happen.
- In some places, we might be able to statically check that locks are
taken in the right order (with the right lock rank checking
implementation) as rank information is fully statically known.
This refactoring even more exposes the fact that Mutex has no lock rank
capabilites, which is not fixed here.
From now on, we don't allow jailed processes to open all device nodes in
/dev, but only allow jailed processes to open /dev/full, /dev/zero,
/dev/null, and various TTY and PTY devices (and not including virtual
consoles) so we basically restrict applications to what they can do when
they are in jail.
The motivation for this type of restriction is to ensure that even if a
remote code execution occurred, the damage that can be done is very
small.
We also don't restrict reading and writing on device nodes that were
already opened, because that limit seems not useful, especially in the
case where we do want to provide an OpenFileDescription to such device
but nothing further than that.
This class is intended to replace all IOAddress usages in the Kernel
codebase altogether. The idea is to ensure IO can be done in
arch-specific manner that is determined mostly in compile-time, but to
still be able to use most of the Kernel code in non-x86 builds. Specific
devices that rely on x86-specific IO instructions are already placed in
the Arch/x86 directory and are omitted for non-x86 builds.
The reason this works so well is the fact that x86 IO space acts in a
similar fashion to the traditional memory space being available in most
CPU architectures - the x86 IO space is essentially just an array of
bytes like the physical memory address space, but requires x86 IO
instructions to load and store data. Therefore, many devices allow host
software to interact with the hardware registers in both ways, with a
noticeable trend even in the modern x86 hardware to move away from the
old x86 IO space to exclusively using memory-mapped IO.
Therefore, the IOWindow class encapsulates both methods for x86 builds.
The idea is to allow PCI devices to be used in either way in x86 builds,
so when trying to map an IOWindow on a PCI BAR, the Kernel will try to
find the proper method being declared with the PCI BAR flags.
For old PCI hardware on non-x86 builds this might turn into a problem as
we can't use port mapped IO, so the Kernel will gracefully fail with
ENOTSUP error code if that's the case, as there's really nothing we can
do within such case.
For general IO, the read{8,16,32} and write{8,16,32} methods are
available as a convenient API for other places in the Kernel. There are
simply no direct 64-bit IO API methods yet, as it's not needed right now
and is not considered to be Arch-agnostic too - the x86 IO space doesn't
support generating 64 bit cycle on IO bus and instead requires two 2
32-bit accesses. If for whatever reason it appears to be necessary to do
IO in such manner, it could probably be added with some neat tricks to
do so. It is recommended to use Memory::TypedMapping struct if direct 64
bit IO is actually needed.
Until now, our kernel has reimplemented a number of AK classes to
provide automatic internal locking:
- RefPtr
- NonnullRefPtr
- WeakPtr
- Weakable
This patch renames the Kernel classes so that they can coexist with
the original AK classes:
- RefPtr => LockRefPtr
- NonnullRefPtr => NonnullLockRefPtr
- WeakPtr => LockWeakPtr
- Weakable => LockWeakable
The goal here is to eventually get rid of the Lock* classes in favor of
using external locking.
Instead of having two separate implementations of AK::RefCounted, one
for userspace and one for kernelspace, there is now RefCounted and
AtomicRefCounted.
All users which relied on the default constructor use a None lock rank
for now. This will make it easier to in the future remove LockRank and
actually annotate the ranks by searching for None.
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.
In most cases it's safe to abort the requested operation and go forward,
however, in some places it's not clear yet how to handle these failures,
therefore, we use the MUST() wrapper to force a kernel panic for now.
Instead, hold the lock while we copy the contents to a stack-based
Vector then iterate on it without any locking.
Because we rely on heap allocations, we need to propagate errors back
in case of OOM condition, therefore, both PCI::enumerate API function
and PCI::Access::add_host_controller_and_enumerate_attached_devices use
now a ErrorOr<void> return value to propagate errors. OOM Error can only
occur when enumerating the m_device_identifiers vector under a spinlock
and trying to expand the temporary Vector which will be used locklessly
to actually iterate over the PCI::DeviceIdentifiers objects.
We already init receive buffer if we have singleport console, but if
we have multiport console that dynamically allocates ports we never
initted their receive buffers.
Previously, Virtio console ports would not show up in `/sys/dev/char/`.
Also adds support to `SystemServer` to create more than one console
port device in `/dev/` in the multiport case.
