Because we don't have our LibC on Lagom, the allocation guard global
flag doesn't exist and NoAllocationGuard fails to build on Lagom.
Whoops. For now, just disable NoAllocationGuard's functionality here.
StringView::for_each_split_view allows you to process the splits in a
StringView without needing to allocate a Vector<StringView> to store
each of the parts.
Since we migrated the implementation from the normal split_view path, we
can also re-implement split_view in terms of for_each_split_view.
This mechanism was unsafe to use in any multithreaded context, since
the hook function was invoked on a raw pointer *after* decrementing
the local ref count.
Since we don't use it for anything anymore, let's just get rid of it.
Currently, we define a CaseInsensitiveStringTraits structure for String.
Using this structure for StringView involves allocating a String from
that view, and a second string to convert that intermediate string to
lowercase.
This defines CaseInsensitiveStringViewTraits (and the underlying helper
case_insensitive_string_hash) to avoid allocations.
NoAllocationGuard is an RAII stack guard that prevents allocations
while it exists. This is done through a thread-local global flag which
causes malloc to crash on a VERIFY if it is false. The guard allows for
recursion.
The intended use case for this class is in real-time audio code. In such
code, allocations are really bad, and this is an easy way of dynamically
enforcing the no-allocations rule while giving the user good feedback if
it is violated. Before real-time audio code is executed, e.g. in LibDSP,
a NoAllocationGuard is instantiated. This is not done with this commit,
as currently some code in LibDSP may still incorrectly allocate in real-
time situations.
Other use cases for the Kernel have also been added, so this commit
builds on the previous to add the support both in Userland and in the
Kernel.
FixedArray now doesn't expose any infallible constructors anymore.
Rather, it exposes fallible methods. Therefore, it can be used for
OOM-safe code.
This commit also converts the rest of the system to use the new API.
However, as an example, VMObject can't take advantage of this yet,
as we would have to endow VMObject with a fallible static
construction method, which would require a very fundamental change
to VMObject's whole inheritance hierarchy.
The previous implementation had some pretty short cycles and two fixed
points (1711463637 and 2389024350). If two keys hashed to one of these
values insertions and lookups would loop forever.
This version is based on a standard xorshift PRNG with period 2**32-1.
The all-zero state is usually forbidden, so we insert it into the cycle
at an arbitrary location.
This is just to allow removing the 'clang-format off' directive. This
concept is only used within this header, so it doesn't need to be in the
global namespace.
We have whittled away at the usages of these AK::Vector APIs in the
Kernel. This change disables them from being visible when building
the Kernel to make sure no new usages get added.
If we didn't define our own `move` and `forward` and inject it into the
`std` namespace, then we would error just after trying to `using` those,
if no one has included it before. Now, we will include `utility` from
the STD if we aren't replacing the `std`.
This was a premature optimization from the early days of SerenityOS.
The eternal heap was a simple bump pointer allocator over a static
byte array. My original idea was to avoid heap fragmentation and improve
data locality, but both ideas were rooted in cargo culting, not data.
We would reserve 4 MiB at boot and only ended up using ~256 KiB, wasting
the rest.
This patch replaces all kmalloc_eternal() usage by regular kmalloc().
This is an interface to downcast(), which degrades errors into runtime
errors, and allows seemingly-correct-but-not-quite constructs like the
following to appear to compile, but fail at runtime:
Variant<NonnullRefPtr<T>, U> foo = ...;
Variant<RefPtr<T>, U> bar = foo;
The expectation here is that `foo` is converted to a RefPtr<T> if it
contains one, and remains a U otherwise, but in reality, the
NonnullRefPtr<T> variant is simply dropped on the floor, and the
resulting variant becomes invalid, failing the assertion in downcast().
This commit adds a Variant<Ts...>(Variant<NewTs...>) constructor that
ensures that no alternative can be left out at compiletime, for the
users that were using this interface for merely increasing the number of
alternatives (for instance, LibSQL's Value class).
This is a raffinement of 49cbd4dcca.
Previously, the container was scanned to compute the size in the unhappy
path. Now, using `all_of` happy and unhappy path should be fast.
In order to reduce our reliance on __builtin_{ffs, clz, ctz, popcount},
this commit removes all calls to these functions and replaces them with
the equivalent functions in AK/BuiltinWrappers.h.
While watching Andreas' most recent video, I noticed that this function
only worked with 32 bit values, but was a serious performance
bottleneck for the kernel. As such, I reworked it to use `size_t`, so
it now can switch to 64-bit sweeps on 64-bit platforms. This caused
test-js to go from 12.5 seconds hot to 11.5 seconds hot on my machine
when running on KVM x86_64.
