This implements a number of changes related to time:
* If a HPET is present, it is now used only as a system timer, unless
the Local APIC timer is used (in which case the HPET timer will not
trigger any interrupts at all).
* If a HPET is present, the current time can now be as accurate as the
chip can be, independently from the system timer. We now query the
HPET main counter for the current time in CPU #0's system timer
interrupt, and use that as a base line. If a high precision time is
queried, that base line is used in combination with quering the HPET
timer directly, which should give a much more accurate time stamp at
the expense of more overhead. For faster time stamps, the more coarse
value based on the last interrupt will be returned. This also means
that any missed interrupts should not cause the time to drift.
* The default system interrupt rate is reduced to about 250 per second.
* Fix calculation of Thread CPU usage by using the amount of ticks they
used rather than the number of times a context switch happened.
* Implement CLOCK_REALTIME_COARSE and CLOCK_MONOTONIC_COARSE and use it
for most cases where precise timestamps are not needed.
Problem:
- `(void)` simply casts the expression to void. This is understood to
indicate that it is ignored, but this is really a compiler trick to
get the compiler to not generate a warning.
Solution:
- Use the `[[maybe_unused]]` attribute to indicate the value is unused.
Note:
- Functions taking a `(void)` argument list have also been changed to
`()` because this is not needed and shows up in the same grep
command.
When loading dynamic objects, the emulator loads the interpreter,
generates an auxiliary vector and starts executing the loader.
Additionally, this commits also makes the MallocTracer and backtrace
symbolication work for dynamically loaded programs.
The dynamic loader exists as /usr/lib/Loader.so and is loaded by the
kernel when ET_DYN programs are executed.
The dynamic loader is responsible for loading the dependencies of the
main program, allocating TLS storage, preparing all loaded objects for
execution and finally jumping to the entry of the main program.
Almost everyone using this API actually wanted String instead of a
ByteBuffer anyway, and there were a bunch of slightly different ways
clients would convert to String.
Let's just cut out all the confusion and make it return String. :^)
pthread implementations generally return errors as a positive non-zero
value. Our kernel generally returns errors as negative values. If we
receive a negative value from a system call, turn it into a positive
return value to relay the error appropriately.
Also, fix the tt test utility to not rely on errno, as the pthread
library does not use errno.
The bug is that if you try to cp DIR_A to DIR_B where DIR_A and DIR_B
have the same parent directory and DIR_A's name is a prefix of DIR_B
(e.g. foo -> foo2, bar -> barbar), it thinks that it's a subdirectory
(since it checks if DIR_A's realpath is a prefix of DIR_B's realpath).
The easiest solution is to put a path delimiter at the end before the
comparison, since you can't have a / in the middle of a directory name.
For example if DIR_A is /home/anon/foo and DIR_B is /home/anon/foo2,
then DIR_A's realpath is a prefix of DIR_B's realpath even though DIR_B
is not inside DIR_A.
For many object types we only ever used the regular print_object() in
the js REPL - resulting in a useless "{ }".
This patch adds more individual representations for the following types:
- Boolean/Number/String object: print wrapped value
- ArrayBuffer: print byteLength and hex-formatted bytes in chunks of 16
- TypedArray: print length, byteLength, buffer pointer and values
- Proxy: print target and handler
Also improve the existing pretty-printing output:
- More consistency, most objects now follow the format "[Type] ..."
- Some coloring tweaks
- No two spaces in empty arrays & objects
Possible future improvements:
- Add line breaks between elements of long arrays & objects
Closes#4310.
This makes the Scheduler a lot leaner by not having to evaluate
block conditions every time it is invoked. Instead evaluate them as
the states change, and unblock threads at that point.
This also implements some more waitid/waitpid/wait features and
behavior. For example, WUNTRACED and WNOWAIT are now supported. And
wait will now not return EINTR when SIGCHLD is delivered at the
same time.
That's just silly :)
Also fix that one use of read_line() which assumes it will
null-terminated in mount.cpp (this would've blown up if the IODevice was
at EOF and had a line with the same size as max_size).
Problem:
- If `fork()` fails the system tries to call `execl()`. That will
either succeed and replace the running process image or it will fail
and it needs to try again. The `if` is redundant because it will
only be evaluated if `execl()` fails.
Solution:
- Remove the `if`.
Grep supports only extended regular expressions, and is able to handle one pattern
handed over via -e or directly after the options. Also, multiple files can be
handed over. Recursive mode is outstanding, but no real magic :^)
