This allows you to set e.g PRE_CXX=ccache in your environment and enjoy
cached rebuilds. This makes "./makeall.sh" take 5 seconds instead of 50
seconds on my machine. :^)
You can currently use this to detect the CPU architecture like so:
#if ARCH(I386)
...
#elif ARCH(X86_64)
...
#else
...
#endif
This will be helpful for separating out architecture-specific code blocks.
Also tweak the kernel's Makefile to use -nostdinc and -nostdinc++.
This prevents us from picking up random headers from ../Root, which may
include older versions of kernel headers.
Since we still need <initializer_list> for Vector, we specifically include
the necessary GCC path. This is a bit hackish but it works for now.
Instead of computing the path length inside the syscall handler, let the
caller do that work. This allows us to implement to new variants of open()
and creat(), called open_with_path_length() and creat_with_path_length().
These are suitable for use with e.g StringView.
When resizing the terminal, we now clear the entire current line and reset
the shell's LineEditor input state. This makes it look and feel kinda the
same as xterm.
Fixes#286.
This makes me wonder if the open() syscall should take characters+length
and we'd compute the length at the LibC layer instead. That way we could
also provide an optional non-POSIX open() that takes the length directly..
The IDE Disk Controller driver has been extended to allow the secondary device on the channel to be initialised and used. A test as to whether this is working (for anyone interested) is to modify `init.cpp:87` to `auto dev_hd0 = IDEDiskDevice::create(IdeDiskDevice::DeviceType::SLAVE);`. The kernel will fail to boot, as there is no disk attached to CHANNEL 1's slave. This was born out of the fact that my FAT driver can't be tested as easily without creating a partition on `hda`.
This allows you to do things like:
vector.insert_before_matching(value, [](auto& entry) {
return value < entry;
});
Basically it scans until it finds an element that matches the condition
callback and then inserts the new value before the matching element.
The first implementation class is DebugLogStream, which can be used like so:
dbg() << "Hello friends, I am " << m_years << " years old!";
Note that it will automatically print a newline when the object created by
dbg() goes out of scope.
This API will grow and evolve, so let's see what we end up with :^)
