- Return more specific types from parse_array() and parse_object().
- Don't create a throwaway String in extract_while().
- Use a StringView in parse_number() to avoid a throwaway String.
This is a shameless copy-paste of String::to_int(). We should find some
way to share this code between String and StringView instead of having
two duplicate copies like this.
This was really straightforward since all the necessary pieces were
already in place. This patch just passes a bold font to draw_glyphs()
for buffer cells with the bold attribute set. :^)
This was happening for async (response-less) messages, since they were
returning void and were were always just wrapping the return type in
an OwnPtr no matter what.
Fork the IPC Connection classes into Server:: and Client::ConnectionNG.
The new IPC messages are serialized very snugly instead of using the
same generic data structure for all messages.
Remove ASAPI.h since we now generate all of it from AudioServer.ipc :^)
- Add IEndpoint::handle(IMessage), a big switch table on message type.
handle() will return a response message for synchronous messages,
and return nullptr otherwise.
- Use i32 instead of int for everything
- Make IMessage::encode() const
- Make IEndpoint::decode_message() static, this allows template code to
decode messages without an endpoint instance on hand.
Each message will now have a typedef called ResponseType as an alias
for the expected response type. This will aid in implementing the sync
messaging code.
Instead of doing everything manually in C++, let's do some codegen.
This patch adds a crude but effective IPC definition parser, along
with two initial definition files for the AudioServer's client and
server endpoints.
If the underlying variant type is a String, try to parse out a color
when to_color() is called.
This makes VisualBuilder apply the saved colors when loading forms.
- "seekable": whether the fd is seekable or sequential.
- "class": which kernel C++ class implements this File.
- "offset": the current implicit POSIX API file offset.
This API was returning a "const char*" and it was unclear who took care
of the underlying memory. Returning a String makes that obvious.
Also make sure we close the /etc/passwd file when we're done with it.
In the future, we should allow mounting any block device. At the moment
there is too much filesystem code that depends on the underlying device
being a DiskDevice.
- You must now have superuser privileges to use mount().
- We now verify that the mount point is a valid path first, before
trying to find a filesystem on the specified device.
- Convert some dbgprintf() to dbg().
It is now possible to mount ext2 `DiskDevice` devices under Serenity on
any folder in the root filesystem. Currently any user can do this with
any permissions. There's a fair amount of assumptions made here too,
that might not be too good, but can be worked on in the future. This is
a good start to allow more dynamic operation under the OS itself.
It is also currently impossible to unmount and such, and devices will
fail to mount in Linux as the FS 'needs to be cleaned'. I'll work on
getting `umount` done ASAP to rectify this (as well as working on less
assumption-making in the mount syscall. We don't want to just be able
to mount DiskDevices!). This could probably be fixed with some `-t`
flag or something similar.
