Rather than casting the FixedPoint to double, format the FixedPoint
directly. This avoids using floating point instruction, which in
turn enables this to be used even in the kernel.
Because AK/Concepts.h includes AK/Forward.h and concepts cannot be
forward declared, slightly losen the FixedPoint template arguments
so that we can forward declare it in AK/Forward.h
This patch reintroduces the translation previously mistakenly removed
when adding support for different underline-styles.
Thanks for reporting the bug, kennethmyhra!
Instead, try to allocate the DMA buffer before trying to construct the
NVMeQueue. This allows us to fail early if we can't allocate the DMA
buffer before allocating and creating the heavier NVMeQueue object.
The implementation of LIKE uses regexes under the hood, and this
implementation of REGEXP takes the same approach. It employs
PosixExtended from LibRegex with case insensitive and Unicode flags
set. The implementation of LIKE is based on SQLlite specs, but SQLlite
does not offer directions for a built-in regex functionality, so this
one uses LibRegex.
These functions used to return booleans which withheld useful
error information for callers. Internally they would suppress
and convert Error objects. We now log or propagate these errors
up the stack.
It's a bad idea to have a global event loop in a client application as
that will cause an initialization-order fiasco in ASAN. Therefore, LibC
now has a flag "s_global_initializers_ran" which is false until _entry
in crt0 runs, which in turn only gets called after all the global
initializers were actually executed. The EventLoop constructor checks
the flag and crashes the program if it is being called as a global
constructor. A note next to the VERIFY_NOT_REACHED() informs the
developer of these things and how we usually instantiate event loops.
The upshot of this is that global event loops will cause a crash before
any undefined behavior is hit.
The event loop is responsible for handling POSIX signals while it's
running. The signal handler adds the signals to a wake pipe which is
then read after the select'ing code in wait_for_event. Problems happen,
however, when another signal comes in after the select wake: the signal
will interrupt the next syscall, the `read` from the wake pipe, and the
resulting EINTR in wait_for_event causes the program to crash. This is
undesirable. Instead, we want to retry reading as long as we're
interrupted.
After the previous change, the wake pipe was only being created on the
main thread by the main event loop. This change utilizes a flag to
always initialize the wake pipe on other threads. Because the pipe is
quite expensive (it will count towards the file descriptor limit, for
instance), we do the initialization "lazily": Only when an event loop is
constructed and it notices that there hasn't been a wake pipe created on
its thread, it will create the pipe. Conversely, this means that there
are no pipes on threads that never use an event loop.
The event loop system was previously very singletony to the point that
there's only a single event loop stack per process and only one event
loop (the topmost) can run at a time. This commit simply makes the event
loop stack and related structures thread-local so that each thread has
an isolated event loop system.
Some things are kept at a global level and synchronized with the new
MutexProtected: The main event loop needs to still be obtainable from
anywhere, as it closes down the application when it exits. The ID
allocator is global as IDs should not be shared even between threads.
And for the inspector server connection, the same as for the main loop
holds.
Note that currently, the wake pipe is only created by the main thread,
so notifications don't work on other threads.
This removes the temporary mutex fix for notifiers, introduced in
0631d3fed5 .
MutexProtected mirrors the identically-named Kernel primitive and can be
used to synchronize access to any object that might not be thread safe
on its own. Synchronization is done with a simple mutex, so access to a
MutexProtected object is potentially blocking.
Mutex now has an internal nesting variable which is there to harden it
against lock-unlock ordering issues (e.g. double unlocking).
This changes LibTimeZone to read the current time zone from the file
/etc/timezone rather than using tzset/tzname. Instead, in a subsequent
commit, LibC's time methods will be changed to used LibTimeZone to
retrieve the system time zone.
Also add an API to set the system time zone. This method is only allowed
when running within Serenity.
This is no longer needed now that LibTimeZone is included within LibC.
Remove the direct linkage so that others do not mistakenly copy-paste
the CMakeLists text elsewhere.
LibTimeZone will be needed directly within LibC for functions such as
localtime(). This change adds LibTimeZone directly within LibC, so that
LibTimeZone isn't its own .so library anymore.
LibTimeZone itself is compiled as an object library to make it easier to
give it generator-specific compilation flags.
In order for this method to be used within LibC itself, avoid using the
floor() method from LibM, which is not available from within LibC. This
header similarly avoids other standard headers as well.
This patch adds support for drawing triangular waves.
For now those can only be horizontal, but as they are intended for
underlining text, it's an okay way to handle this.
