1c692e87a6 Kernel: Move kmalloc() into a Kernel/Heap/ directory 2019-09-16 09:01:44 +02:00

27f699ef0c AK: Rename the common integer typedefs to make it obvious what they are.
These types can be picked up by including <AK/Types.h>:

* u8, u16, u32, u64 (unsigned)
* i8, i16, i32, i64 (signed)

d384c7815f Kernel: Make it possible to have kmalloc() dump call stacks.
This can be enabled at any time using a sysctl:

    sysctl kmalloc_stacks=1

The stacks will go to the debugger output only.

e9c0f4567d Kernel+ProcessManager: Expose the number of kmalloc/kfree calls.
This will be very helpful in tracking down unwanted kmalloc traffic. :^)

022f7790db Use modern C++ attributes instead of __attribute__ voodoo.
This is quite nice, although I wish [[gnu::always_inline]] implied inline.
Also "gnu::" is kind of a wart, but whatcha gonna do.

c43903eebd Don't use dword-by-dword memset/memcpy if the addresses are unaligned.
Also don't enable the large kmalloc catcher by default.

3ac977f50b Paper over a race in DoubleBuffer.
I'm still somewhat okay throwing InterruptDisabler at races as they screw me.
Eventually I'm gonna have to devise a different strategy though.

f6179ad9f9 Add slightly better kmalloc_aligned() and kfree_aligned().
Process page directories can now actually be freed. This could definitely
be implemented in a nicer, less wasteful way, but this works for now.

The spawn stress test can now run for a lot longer but eventually dies
due to kmalloc running out of memory.

85b886c2e0 Make it possible to build the Kernel on a macOS host.
It still requires an ELF compiler and linker, but at least it builds.
I need to get rid of the "Unix" namespace. This does a lot of that.

9d05f6b7a7 Make bash-2.05b build with minimal changes.
This is really neat. :^)

1da0a7c949 Give each task its own page directory.
This isn't finished but I'll commit as I go. We need to get to where context
switching only needs to change CR3 and everything's ready to go.

My basic idea is:
- The first 4 kB is off-limits. This catches null dereferences.
- Up to the 4 MB mark is identity-mapped and kernel-only.
- The rest is available to everyone!

While the first 4 MB is only available to the kernel, it's still mapped in
every process, for convenience when entering the kernel.

9a086b2d35 Add a kmalloc_eternal() for things that will never be destroyed. 2018-10-31 23:19:15 +01:00

2716a9e2d7 Greatly improve /proc/PID/stack by tracing the ebp frame chain.
I also added a generator cache to FileHandle. This way, multiple
reads to a generated file (i.e in a synthfs) can transparently
handle multiple calls to read() without the contents changing
between calls.

The cache is discarded at EOF (or when the FileHandle is destroyed.)

a5caf7ca99 Make the kmalloc global stats variable volatile.
I know I'm praying for cargo here, but this does fix a weird issue
where logging the sum_alloc and sum_free globals wouldn't display
symmetric values all the time.

9396108034 Import the "gerbert" kernel I worked on earlier this year.
It's a lot crappier than I remembered it. It's gonna need a lot of work.
