Steps to reproduce:
$ cat loop.c
int main() { for (;;); }
$ gcc -o loop loop.c
$ ./loop
Terminating this process wasn't previously possible because we only
checked whether the thread should be terminated on syscall exit.
There were a few cases where we could end up logging profiling events
before or after the associated process or thread exists in the profile:
After enabling profiling we might end up with CPU samples before we
had a chance to synthesize process/thread creation events.
After a thread exits we would still log associated kmalloc/kfree
events. Instead we now just ignore those events.
Hook the kernel page fault handler and capture page fault events when
the fault has a current thread attached in TLS. We capture the eip and
ebp so we can unwind the stack and locate which pieces of code are
generating the most page faults.

By constraining two implementations, the compiler will select the best
fitting one. All this will require is duplicating the implementation and
simplifying for the `void` case.
This constraining also informs both the caller and compiler by passing
the callback parameter types as part of the constraint
(e.g.: `IterationFunction<int>`).
Some `for_each` functions in LibELF only take functions which return
`void`. This is a minimal correctness check, as it removes one way for a
function to incompletely do something.
There seems to be a possible idiom where inside a lambda, a `return;` is
the same as `continue;` in a for-loop.
FileDescriptionBlocker::m_should_block was shadowing the parent's
FileBlocker::m_should_block variable, which would cause should_block()
to return the wrong value.

This solves a problem where checking whether a thread is an idle
thread may require iterating all processors if it is not the idle
thread of the current processor.
The previous `LOCKER(..)` instrumentation only covered some of the
cases where a lock is actually acquired. By utilizing the new
`AK::SourceLocation` functionality we can now reliably instrument
all calls to lock automatically.
Other changes:
- Tweak the message in `Thread::finalize()` which dumps leaked lock
so it's more readable and includes the function information that is
now available.
- Make the `LOCKER(..)` define a no-op, it will be cleaned up in a
follow up change.

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.
This should allow creating intrusive lists that have smart pointers,
while remaining free (compared to the impl before this commit) when
holding raw pointers :^)
As a sidenote, this also adds a `RawPtr<T>` type, which is just
equivalent to `T*`.
Note that this does not actually use such functionality, but is only
expected to pave the way for #6369, to replace NonnullRefPtrVector<T>
with intrusive lists.
As it is with zero-cost things, this makes the interface a bit less nice
by requiring the type name of what an `IntrusiveListNode` holds (and
optionally its container, if not RawPtr), and also requiring the type of
the container (normally `RawPtr`) on the `IntrusiveList` instance.
Alot of code is shared between i386/i686/x86 and x86_64
and a lot probably will be used for compatability modes.
So we start by moving the headers into one Directory.
We will probalby be able to move some cpp files aswell.
Switch to using type-safe bitwise operators for the BlockFlags class,
this cleans up a lot of boilerplate casts which are necessary when the
enum is declared as `enum class`.
Dynamic Vector allocations in sys$select() were showing up in the
full-system profile and since there will never be more than FD_SETSIZE
file descriptors to worry about, we can confidently add enough inline
capacity to this Vector that it never has to kmalloc.
To compensate for the increased stack usage, reduce the size of the
FDInfo struct while we're here. :^)
This commit is very invasive, because Thread likes to take a pointer and write
to it. This means that translating between timespec/timeval/Time would have been
more difficult than just changing everything that hands a raw pointer to Thread,
in bulk.
(...and ASSERT_NOT_REACHED => VERIFY_NOT_REACHED)
Since all of these checks are done in release builds as well,
let's rename them to VERIFY to prevent confusion, as everyone is
used to assertions being compiled out in release.
We can introduce a new ASSERT macro that is specifically for debug
checks, but I'm doing this wholesale conversion first since we've
accumulated thousands of these already, and it's not immediately
obvious which ones are suitable for ASSERT.
The `default_signal_action(u8 signal)` function already has the
full mapping. The only caveat being that now we need to make
sure the thread constructor and clear_signals() method do the work
of resetting the m_signal_action_data array, instead or relying on
the previous logic in set_default_signal_dispositions.
In the majority of cases we want to force callers to observe the
result of a blocking operation as it's not grantee to succeed as
they expect. Mark BlockResult as [[nodiscard]] to force any callers
to observe the result of the blocking operation.
Not sure why this was 4 MiB in the first place, but that's a lot of
memory to reserve for each thread when we're running with 512 MiB
total in the default testing setup. :^)
Wrap thread creation in a Thread::try_create() helper that first
allocates a kernel stack region. If that allocation fails, we propagate
an ENOMEM error to the caller.
This avoids the situation where a thread is half-constructed, without a
valid kernel stack, and avoids having to do messy cleanup in that case.
There's no need for this to be generic and support running from an
arbitrary thread context. Perf events are always generated from within
the thread being profiled, so take advantage of that to simplify the
code. Also use Vector capacity to avoid heap allocations.
This allows us to get rid of the thread lists in SchedulerData.
Also, instead of iterating over all threads to find a thread by id,
just use a lookup table. In the rare case of having to iterate over
all threads, just iterate the lookup table.
This broke with the change that gave each process a list of its own
threads. Since threads are removed slightly earlier from that list
during process teardown, we're not able to use it for generating
coredump backtraces. Fortunately we have the "threads for coredump"
list for just this purpose. :^)
Rather than walking all Thread instances and putting them into
a vector to be sorted by priority, queue them into priority sorted
linked lists as soon as they become ready to be executed.
Change Thread::current to be a static function and read using the fs
register, which eliminates a window between Processor::current()
returning and calling a function on it, which can trigger preemption
and a move to a different processor, which then causes operating
on the wrong object.
We also need to store m_in_critical in the Thread upon switching,
and we need to restore it. This solves a problem where threads
moving between different processors could end up with an unexpected
value.
This allows us to determine what the previous mode (user or kernel)
was, e.g. in the timer interrupt. This is used e.g. to determine
whether a signal handler should be set up.

This was done with the help of several scripts, I dump them here to
easily find them later:

do
find . \( -name '*.cpp' -o -name '*.h' -o -name '*.in' \) -not -path './Toolchain/*' -not -path './Build/*' -exec sed -i -E 's/#ifdef '$debug_macro'/#if '$debug_macro'/' {} \;

It was possible to signal a process while it was paging in an inode
backed VM object. This would cause the inode read to EINTR, and the
page fault handler would assert.
Solve this by simply not unblocking threads due to signals if they are
currently busy handling a page fault. This is probably not the best way
to solve this issue, so I've added a FIXME to that effect.
..and allow implicit creation of KResult and KResultOr from ErrnoCode.
This means that kernel functions that return those types can finally
do "return EINVAL;" and it will just work.
There's a handful of functions that still deal with signed integers
that should be converted to return KResults.
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.
