This commit moves the length calculations out to be directly on the
StringView users. This is an important step towards the goal of removing
StringView(char const*), as it moves the responsibility of calculating
the size of the string to the user of the StringView (which will prevent
naive uses causing OOB access).
The only use of this define was removed in commit
5f724b6ca1, over a year ago.
The define was there to prevent the LibC build we built before libstdc++
from complaining about missing libgcc symbols. However, as noted in that
commit, we never actually needed to build LibC at all.
SPDX License Identifiers are a more compact / standardized
way of representing file license information.

This was done with the `ambr` search and replace tool.

In order to remove libstdc++ completely, we need to give up on their
implementation of abi::__cxa_demangle. The demangler logic will actually
have to be quite complex, and included in both the kernel and userspace.
A definite fixme for the future, to parse the mangled names into real
deal names.
As suggested by Joshua, this commit adds the 2-clause BSD license as a
comment block to the top of every source file.
For the first pass, I've just added myself for simplicity. I encourage
everyone to add themselves as copyright holders of any file they've
added or modified in some significant way. If I've added myself in
error somewhere, feel free to replace it with the appropriate copyright
holder instead.
Going forward, all new source files should include a license header.
It was possible to craft a custom ELF executable that when symbolicated
would cause the kernel to read from user-controlled addresses anywhere
in memory. You could then fetch this memory via /proc/PID/stack
We fix this by making ELFImage hand out StringView rather than raw
const char* for symbol names. In case a symbol offset is outside the
ELF image, you get a null StringView. :^)
