An IP socket can now join a multicast group by using the
IP_ADD_MEMBERSHIP sockopt, which will cause it to start receiving
packets sent to the multicast address, even though this address does
not belong to this host.
This commit will add MSG_PEEK support, which allows a package to be
seen without taking it from the buffer, so that a subsequent recv()
without the MSG_PEEK flag can pick it up.
This turns the perfcore format into more a log than it was before,
which lets us properly log process, thread and region
creation/destruction. This also makes it unnecessary to dump the
process' regions every time it is scheduled like we did before.
Incidentally this also fixes 'profile -c' because we previously ended
up incorrectly dumping the parent's region map into the profile data.
Log-based mmap support enables profiling shared libraries which
are loaded at runtime, e.g. via dlopen().
This enables profiling both the parent and child process for
programs which use execve(). Previously we'd discard the profiling
data for the old process.
The Profiler tool has been updated to not treat thread IDs as
process IDs anymore. This enables support for processes with more
than one thread. Also, there's a new widget to filter which
process should be displayed.

This adds PT_PEEKDEBUG and PT_POKEDEBUG to allow for reading/writing
the debug registers, and updates the Kernel's debug handler to read the
new information from the debug status register.
Mostly due to the fact that clang-format allows aligned comments via
AlignTrailingComments.
We could also use raw string literals in inline asm, which clang-format
deals with properly (and would be nicer in a lot of places).
This prevented from dmidecode to get the right PAGE_SIZE when using the
sysconf syscall.
I found this bug, when I tried to figure why dmidecode fails to mmap
/dev/mem when I passed --no-procfs, and the conclusion is that it tried
to mmap unaligned physical address 0xf5ae0 (SMBIOS data), and that was
caused by a wrong value returned after using the sysconf syscall to get
the plaform page size, therefore, allowing to send an unaligned address
to the mmap syscall.
This can be used to request random VM placement instead of the highly
predictable regular mmap(nullptr, ...) VM allocation strategy.
It will soon be used to implement ASLR in the dynamic loader. :^)
This adds support for FUTEX_WAKE_OP, FUTEX_WAIT_BITSET, FUTEX_WAKE_BITSET,
FUTEX_REQUEUE, and FUTEX_CMP_REQUEUE, as well well as global and private
futex and absolute/relative timeouts against the appropriate clock. This
also changes the implementation so that kernel resources are only used when
a thread is blocked on a futex.
Global futexes are implemented as offsets in VMObjects, so that different
processes can share a futex against the same VMObject despite potentially
being mapped at different virtual addresses.
This patch merges the profiling functionality in the kernel with the
performance events mechanism. A profiler sample is now just another
perf event, rather than a dedicated thing.
Since perf events were already per-process, this now makes profiling
per-process as well.
Processes with perf events would already write out a perfcore.PID file
to the current directory on death, but since we may want to profile
a process and then let it continue running, recorded perf events can
now be accessed at any time via /proc/PID/perf_events.
This patch also adds information about process memory regions to the
perfcore JSON format. This removes the need to supply a core dump to
the Profiler app for symbolication, and so the "profiler coredump"
mechanism is removed entirely.
There's still a hard limit of 4MB worth of perf events per process,
so this is by no means a perfect final design, but it's a nice step
forward for both simplicity and stability.

This brings mmap more in line with other operating systems. Prior to
this, it was impossible to request memory that was definitely committed,
instead MAP_PURGEABLE would provide a region that was not actually
purgeable, but also not fully committed, which meant that using such memory
still could cause crashes when the underlying pages could no longer be
allocated.
This fixes some random crashes in low-memory situations where non-volatile
memory is mapped (e.g. malloc, tls, Gfx::Bitmap, etc) but when a page in
these regions is first accessed, there is insufficient physical memory
available to commit a new page.
Rather than lazily committing regions by default, we now commit
the entire region unless MAP_NORESERVE is specified.
This solves random crashes in low-memory situations where e.g. the
malloc heap allocated memory, but using pages that haven't been
used before triggers a crash when no more physical memory is available.
Use this flag to create large regions without actually committing
the backing memory. madvise() can be used to commit arbitrary areas
of such regions after creating them.
Compared to version 10 this fixes a bunch of formatting issues, mostly
around structs/classes with attributes like [[gnu::packed]], and
incorrect insertion of spaces in parameter types ("T &"/"T &&").
I also removed a bunch of // clang-format off/on and FIXME comments that
are no longer relevant - on the other hand it tried to destroy a couple of
neatly formatted comments, so I had to add some as well.
This implements a number of changes related to time:
* If a HPET is present, it is now used only as a system timer, unless
the Local APIC timer is used (in which case the HPET timer will not
trigger any interrupts at all).
* If a HPET is present, the current time can now be as accurate as the
chip can be, independently from the system timer. We now query the
HPET main counter for the current time in CPU #0's system timer
interrupt, and use that as a base line. If a high precision time is
queried, that base line is used in combination with quering the HPET
timer directly, which should give a much more accurate time stamp at
the expense of more overhead. For faster time stamps, the more coarse
value based on the last interrupt will be returned. This also means
that any missed interrupts should not cause the time to drift.
* The default system interrupt rate is reduced to about 250 per second.
* Fix calculation of Thread CPU usage by using the amount of ticks they
used rather than the number of times a context switch happened.
* Implement CLOCK_REALTIME_COARSE and CLOCK_MONOTONIC_COARSE and use it
for most cases where precise timestamps are not needed.
This makes the Scheduler a lot leaner by not having to evaluate
block conditions every time it is invoked. Instead evaluate them as
the states change, and unblock threads at that point.
This also implements some more waitid/waitpid/wait features and
behavior. For example, WUNTRACED and WNOWAIT are now supported. And
wait will now not return EINTR when SIGCHLD is delivered at the
same time.
When SO_TIMESTAMP is set as an option on a SOCK_DGRAM socket, then
recvmsg() will return a SCM_TIMESTAMP control message that
contains a struct timeval with the system time that was current
when the socket was received.
The implementation only supports a single iovec for now.
Some might say having more than one iovec is the main point of
recvmsg() and sendmsg(), but I'm interested in the control message
bits.
This fixes an issue we had in the git port where git would not
recognize untracked files (for example in 'git status').
When git used readdir, the 'd_type' field in the dirent struct contained
bad values (Specifically, it contained the values defiend in
Kernel/FileSystem/ext2_fs.h instead of the ones in LibC/dirent.h).
After this fix, we can create a new git repository with 'git init', and
then stage and commit files as usual.
This compiles, and contains exactly the same bugs as before.
The regex 'FIXME: PID/' should reveal all markers that I left behind, including:
- Incomplete conversion
- Issues or things that look fishy
- Actual bugs that will go wrong during runtime
This unbreaks the gcc and binutils ports.
Previously, when _SC_PAGESIZE was missing, these packages opted to
use their own versions of getpagesize which made their build fail
because of conflicting definitions of the function.
For now, only the non-standard _SC_NPROCESSORS_CONF and
_SC_NPROCESSORS_ONLN are implemented.
Use them to make ninja pick a better default -j value.
While here, make the ninja package script not fail if
no other port has been built yet.
This fixes a bug where the mode of a FIFO was reported as 001000 instead
of 0010000 (you see the difference? me nethier), and hopefully doesn't
introduce new bugs. I've left 0777 and similar in a few places, because
that is *more* readable than its symbolic version.
This adds support for MS_RDONLY, a mount flag that tells the kernel to disallow
any attempts to write to the newly mounted filesystem. As this flag is
per-mount, and different mounts of the same filesystems (such as in case of bind
mounts) can have different mutability settings, you have to go though a custody
to find out if the filesystem is mounted read-only, instead of just asking the
filesystem itself whether it's inherently read-only.
This also adds a lot of checks we were previously missing; and moves some of
them to happen after more specific checks (such as regular permission checks).
One outstanding hole in this system is sys$mprotect(PROT_WRITE), as there's no
way we can know if the original file description this region has been mounted
from had been opened through a readonly mount point. Currently, we always allow
such sys$mprotect() calls to succeed, which effectively allows anyone to
circumvent the effect of MS_RDONLY. We should solve this one way or another.
PT_SETTREGS sets the regsiters of the traced thread. It can only be
used when the tracee is stopped.
Also, refactor ptrace.
The implementation was getting long and cluttered the alraedy large
Process.cpp file.
This commit moves the bulk of the implementation to Kernel/Ptrace.cpp,
and factors out peek & poke to separate methods of the Process class.
PT_POKE writes a single word to the tracee's address space.
Some caveats:
- If the user requests to write to an address in a read-only region, we
temporarily change the page's protections to allow it.
- If the user requests to write to a region that's backed by a
SharedInodeVMObject, we replace the vmobject with a PrivateIndoeVMObject.
This patch adds the minherit() syscall originally invented by OpenBSD.
Only the MAP_INHERIT_ZERO mode is supported for now. If set on an mmap
region, that region will be zeroed out on fork().
This patch adds a way for a socket to ask to be routed through a
specific interface.
Currently, this option only applies to sending, however, it should also
apply to receiving...somehow :^)
This commit adds a basic implementation of
the ptrace syscall, which allows one process
(the tracer) to control another process (the tracee).
While a process is being traced, it is stopped whenever a signal is
received (other than SIGCONT).
The tracer can start tracing another thread with PT_ATTACH,
which causes the tracee to stop.
From there, the tracer can use PT_CONTINUE
to continue the execution of the tracee,
or use other request codes (which haven't been implemented yet)
to modify the state of the tracee.
Additional request codes are PT_SYSCALL, which causes the tracee to
continue exection but stop at the next entry or exit from a syscall,
and PT_GETREGS which fethces the last saved register set of the tracee
(can be used to inspect syscall arguments and return value).
A special request code is PT_TRACE_ME, which is issued by the tracee
and causes it to stop when it calls execve and wait for the
tracer to attach.
A new IP address or a new network mask can be specified in the command
line arguments of ifconfig to replace the old values of a given network
adapter. Additionally, more information is being printed for each adapter.
