Instead of using ifdefs to use the correct platform-specific methods, we
can just use the same pattern we use for the microseconds_delay function
which has specific implementations for each Arch CPU subdirectory.
When linking a kernel image, the actual correct and platform-specific
power-state changing methods will be called in Firmware/PowerState.cpp
file.
Once LibC is installed to the sysroot and its conflicts with libc++
are resolved, including LibC headers in such a way will cause errors
with a modern LLVM-based toolchain.
To ensure actual PS2 code is not tied to the i8042 code, we make them
separated in the following ways:
- PS2KeyboardDevice and PS2MouseDevice classes are no longer inheriting
from the IRQHandler class. Instead we have specific IRQHandler derived
class for the i8042 controller implementation, which is used to ensure
that we don't end up mixing PS2 code with low-level interrupt handling
functionality. In the future this means that we could add a driver for
other PS2 controllers that might have only one interrupt handler but
multiple PS2 devices are attached, therefore, making it easier to put
the right propagation flow from the controller driver all the way to
the HID core code.
- A simple abstraction layer is added between the PS2 command set which
devices could use and the actual implementation low-level commands.
This means that the code in PS2MouseDevice and PS2KeyboardDevice
classes is no longer tied to i8042 implementation-specific commands,
so now these objects could send PS2 commands to their PS2 controller
and get a PS2Response which abstracts the given response too.
The HIDController class is removed and instead adding SerialIOController
class. The HIDController class was a mistake - there's no such thing in
real hardware as host controller only for human interface devices
(VirtIO PCI input controller being the exception here, but it could be
technically treated as serial IO controller too).
Instead, we simply add a new abstraction layer - the SerialIO "bus",
which will hold all the code that is related to serial communications
with other devices. A PS2 controller is simply a serial IO controller,
and the Intel 8042 Controller is simply a specific implementation of a
PS2 controller.
All code that is related to PC BIOS should not be in the Kernel/Firmware
directory as this directory is for abstracted and platform-agnostic code
like ACPI (and device tree parsing in the future).
This fixes a problem with the aarch64 architecure, as these machines
don't have any PC-BIOS in them so actually trying to access these memory
locations (EBDA, BIOS ROM) does not make any sense, as they're specific
to x86 machines only.
This code is very x86-specific, because Intel introduced the actual
MultiProcessor specification back in 1993, qouted here as a proof:
"The MP specification covers PC/AT-compatible MP platform designs based
on Intel processor architectures and Advanced Programmable Interrupt
Controller (APIC) architectures"
Most of the ACPI static parsing methods (methods that can be called
without initializing a full AML parser) are not tied to any specific
platform or CPU architecture.
The only method that is platform-specific is the one that finds the RSDP
structure. Thus, each CPU architecture/platform needs to implement it.
This means that now aarch64 can implement its own method to find the
ACPI RSDP structure, which would be hooked into the rest of the ACPI
code elegantly, but for now I just added a FIXME and that method returns
empty value of Optional<PhysicalAddress>.
Like the HID, Audio and Storage subsystem, the Graphics subsystem (which
handles GPUs technically) exposes unix device files (typically in /dev).
To ensure consistency across the repository, move all related files to a
new directory under Kernel/Devices called "GPU".
Also remove the redundant "GPU" word from the VirtIO driver directory,
and the word "Graphics" from GraphicsManagement.{h,cpp} filenames.
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.
The Storage subsystem, like the Audio and HID subsystems, exposes Unix
device files (for example, in the /dev directory). To ensure consistency
across the repository, we should make the Storage subsystem to reside in
the Kernel/Devices directory like the two other mentioned subsystems.
"Wherever applicable" = most places, actually :^), especially for
networking and filesystem timestamps.
This includes changes to unzip, which uses DOSPackedTime, since that is
changed for the FAT file systems.
That's what this class really is; in fact that's what the first line of
the comment says it is.
This commit does not rename the main files, since those will contain
other time-related classes in a little bit.
MSIx table entry is used to program interrupt vectors and it is
architecture specific. Add helper functions declaration in
Arch/PCIMSI.h. The definition of the function is placed in the
respective arch specific code.
MSI(x) interrupts need to reserve IRQs so that it can be programmed by
the device. Add an API to reserve contiguous ranges of interrupt
handlers so that it can used by PCI devices that use MSI(x) mechanism.
This API needs to be implemented by aarch64 architecture.
Set pin-based interrupt handler as reserved during PCI bus init.
This is required so that MSI(x) based interrupts can avoid sharing the
IRQ which has been marked as reserved.
Some hardware/software configurations crash KVM as soon as we try to
start Serenity. The exact cause is currently unknown, so just fully
revert it for now.
This reverts commit 897c4e5145.
The new baked image is a Prekernel and a Kernel baked together now, so
essentially we no longer need to pass the Prekernel as -kernel and the
actual kernel image as -initrd to QEMU, leaving the option to pass an
actual initrd or initramfs module later on with multiboot.
is_sharing_with_others API was never really put to use properly since
it was introduced. The only place where it is used in Interrupts.cpp is
in conjuction with is_shared_handler() which is only true for
SharedIRQHandler and is_sharing_with_others will always return false.
Remove that API.
If IRQHandler's IRQ is shared, then disable_irq() should not call the
controller to disable that IRQ as some other device might be using it.
IRQHandler had a private variable to indicate if it is being shared:
m_shared_with_others but it was never modified even if the IRQ was
shared.
Add a new member function set_shared_with_others() to enable/disable
m_shared_with_others member of IRQHandler class. This function is
called when an IRQHandler is being added/removed as a part of
SharedIRQHandler.
This has been broken on x86_64 since its introduction, as it features
more registers to be saved, and we never held up the "rbp has to be the
last pushed register" there.
Instead, just copy rbp from the thread structure, which is now properly
updated since the last commit.
This is done by 2 ways which both fit very well together:
- We stop use LockRefPtrs. We also don't allow expansion of the
m_channels member, by setting it to be a fixed Array of 2
IDEChannels.
- More error propagation through the code, in the construction point of
IDEChannel(s). This means that in the future we could technically do
something meaningful with OOM conditions when initializing an IDE
controller.
For a very long time, the kernel had only support for basic PS/2 devices
such as the PS2 AT keyboard and regular PS2 mouse (with a scroll wheel).
To adapt to this, we had very simple abstractions in place, essentially,
the PS2 devices were registered as IRQ handlers (IRQ 1 and 12), and when
an interrupt was triggered, we simply had to tell the I8042Controller to
fetch a byte for us, then send it back to the appropriate device for
further processing and queueing of either a key event, or a mouse packet
so userspace can do something meaningful about it.
When we added the VMWare mouse integration feature it was easily adapted
to this paradigm, requiring small changes across the handling code for
these devices.
This patch is a major cleanup for any future advancements in the HID
subsystem.
It ensures we do things in a much more sane manner:
- We stop using LockRefPtrs. Currently, after the initialization of the
i8042 controller, we never have to change RefPtrs in that class, as we
simply don't support PS2 hotplugging currently.
Also, we remove the unnecessary getters for keyboard and mouse devices
which also returned a LockRefPtr.
- There's a clear separation between PS2 devices and the actual device
nodes that normally exist in /dev. PS2 devices are not polled, because
when the user uses these devices, they will trigger an IRQ which when
is handled, could produce either a MousePacket or KeyEvent, depending
on the device state.
The separation is crucial for buses that are polled, for example - USB
is a polled bus and will not generate an IRQ for HID devices.
- There's a clear separation in roles of each structure. The PS2 devices
which are attached to a I8042Controller object are managing the device
state, while the generic MouseDevice and KeyboardDevice manage all
related tasks of a CharacterDevice, as well as interpreting scan code
events and mouse relative/absolute coordinates.
It happens to be that only PS/2 devices that are connected via the i8042
controller can generate interrupt events, so it makes much more sense to
have those devices to implement the enable_interrupts method because of
the I8042Device class and not the HIDDevice class.
Use the new class in HID code, because all other HID device controllers
will be using this class as their parent class.
Hence, we no longer keep a reference to any PS/2 device in HIDManagement
and rely on HIDController derived classes to do this for us.
It also means that we removed another instance of a LockRefPtr, which
is designated to be removed and is replaced by the better pattern of
SpinlockProtected<RefPtr<>> instead.
This replaces the previous owning address space pointer. This commit
should not change any of the existing functionality, but it lays down
the groundwork needed to let us properly access the region table under
the address space spinlock during page fault handling.
The details of the specific interrupt bits that must be turned on are
irrelevant to the sys$execve implementation. Abstract it away to the
Processor implementations using the InterruptsState enum.
Storage controllers are initialized during init and are never modified.
NonnullRefPtr can be safely used instead of the NonnullLockRefPtr. This
also fixes one of the UB issue that was there when using an NVMe device
because of NonnullLockRefPtr.
We can add proper locking when we need to modify the storage controllers
after init.
This is done with 2 major steps:
1. Remove JailManagement singleton and use a structure that resembles
what we have with the Process object. This is required later for the
second step in this commit, but on its own, is a major change that
removes this clunky singleton that had no real usage by itself.
2. Use IntrusiveLists to keep references to Process objects in the same
Jail so it will be much more straightforward to iterate on this kind
of objects when needed. Previously we locked the entire Process list
and we did a simple pointer comparison to check if the checked
Process we iterate on is in the same Jail or not, which required
taking multiple Spinlocks in a very clumsy and heavyweight way.
Since the ProcFS doesn't hold many global objects within it, the need
for a fully-structured design of backing components and a registry like
with the SysFS is no longer true.
To acommodate this, let's remove all backing store and components of the
ProcFS, so now it resembles what we had in the early days of ProcFS in
the project - a mostly-static filesystem, with very small amount of
kmalloc allocations needed.
We still use the inode index mechanism to understand the role of each
inode, but this is done in a much "static"ier way than before.
This commit adds Processor::set_thread_specific_data, and this function
is used to factor out architecture specific implementation of setting
the thread specific data. This function is implemented for
aarch64 and x86_64, and the callsites are changed to use this function
instead.
This patch removes the x86 mechanism for calling syscalls, favoring
the more modern syscall instruction. It also moves architecture
dependent code from functions that are meant to be architecture
agnostic therefore paving the way for adding more architectures.
