This device will assist userspace to manage hotplug events.
A userspace application reads a DeviceEvent entry until the return value
is zero which indicates no events that are queued and waiting for
processing.
Trying to read with a buffer smaller than sizeof(DeviceEvent) results in
EOVERFLOW.
For now, there's no ioctl mechanism for this device but in the future an
acknowledgement mechanism can be implemented via ioctl(2) interface.
Apparently there was a wrong calculation result when we sent parameters
from TextModeConsole::clear_vga_row method - and we should stick to the
x, y mechanism of the clear method instead of doing the same calculation
which made it to happen twice actually.
These checks in `sys$execve` could trip up the system whenever you try
to execute an `.so` file. For example, double-clicking `libwasm.so` in
Terminal crashes the kernel.
This changes the program header alignment checks to reflect the same
checks in LibELF, and passes the requested alignment on to
`::try_allocate_range()`.
This was easily done, as the Kernel and Userland don't actually share
any of the APIs exposed by it, so instead the Kernel APIs were moved to
the Kernel, and the Userland APIs stayed in LibKeyboard.
This has multiple advantages:
* The non OOM-fallible String is not longer used for storing the
character map name in the Kernel
* The kernel no longer has to link to the userland LibKeyboard code
* A lot of #ifdef KERNEL cruft can be removed from LibKeyboard
There can only be a limited number of functions (only 8).
Also, consider the start bus of the PCI domain when trying to enumerate
other host bridges on bus 0, device 0, functions 1-7 (function 0 is the
main host bridge).
We were unconditionally trying to update it in the interrupt, which
would depend on the timer interrupt not being received too soon after
the timers are initialized (before the time page was initialized),
which was the case when using HPET timers via the ACPI tables, but not
when using the PIT when ACPI was disabled.
Only a generic struct definition was present for NVMeSubmission. To
improve type safety and clarity, added an union of NVMeSubmission
structs that are applicable to the command being submitted.
The CAP.TO is 0 based. Even though I don't see that mentioned in the
spec explicitly, all major OSs such as Linux, FreeBSD add 1 to the
CAP.TO while calculating the timeout.
IO::delay was added as a lazy alternative to looping with a timeout
error if the condition was not satisfied. Now that we have the
wait_for_ready function, remove the delay in the reset and start
controller function.
We were already using a non-intrusive RedBlackTree, and since the kernel
regions tree is non-owning, this is a trivial conversion that makes a
bunch of the tree operations infallible (by being allocation-free.) :^)
PageDirectory gets initialized step-by-step in
PageDirectory::try_create_for_userspace(). This initialization may fail
anywhere in this function - for example, we may not be able to
allocate a directory table, in which case
PageDirectory::try_create_for_userspace() will return a null pointer.
We recognize this condition and early-return ENOMEM. However, at this
point, we need to correctly destruct the only partially initialized
PageDirectory. Previously, PageDirectory::~PageDirectory() would assume
that the object it was destructing was always fully initialized. It now
uses the new helper PageDirectory::is_cr3_initialized() to correctly
recognize when the directory table was not yet initialized. This helper
checks if the pointer to the directory table is null. Only if it is not
null does the destructor try to fetch the directory table using
PageDirectory::cr3().
Since the inline capacity of the Vector return type was not specified
explicitly, the vector was automatically copied to a 0-length inline
capacity one, essentially eliminating the optimization.
These infallible resource factory functions were only there to ease the
conversion to the new factory functions. Since all child classes of
VMObject now use the fallible resource factory functions, we don't
need the infallible versions anymore.

The only purpose of the remap() in Region::try_clone() is to ensure
non-writable page table entries for CoW regions. If a region is already
non-writable, there's no need to waste time updating the page tables.
When mapping or unmapping completely inaccessible memory regions,
we don't need to update the page tables at all. This saves a bunch of
time in some situations, most notably during dynamic linking, where we
make a large VM reservation and immediately throw it away. :^)
We were already only tracking kernel regions, this patch just makes it
more clear by having it reflected in the name of the registration
helpers.
We also stop calling them for userspace regions, avoiding some spinlock
action in such cases.
This optimization was added when region lookup was O(n), before we had
the O(log n) RedBlackTree. Let's remove it to simplify the code, as we
have no evidence that it remains valuable.
Previously we would only remove them from the map if they were attached
to an AddressSpace, even though we would always add them to the map on
construction. This results in an assertion failure on destruction if
the page directory was never attached to an AddressSpace. (for example,
on an allocation failure of said AddressSpace)
The HashMap of InodeIndex->Inode in TmpFS only had one purpose: looking
up parent inodes by index.
Instead of using a map for this, we can simply give each inode a WeakPtr
to its parent inode. This saves us the trouble of dealing with the
fallibility of HashMap allocations, and it just generally simpler. :^)
