We now use AK::Error and AK::ErrorOr<T> in both kernel and userspace!
This was a slightly tedious refactoring that took a long time, so it's
not unlikely that some bugs crept in.
Nevertheless, it does pass basic functionality testing, and it's just
real nice to finally see the same pattern in all contexts. :^)
Previously there was a mix of returning plain strings and returning
explicit string views using `operator ""sv`. This change switches them
all to standardized on `operator ""sv` as it avoids a call to strlen.
Currently, writing anything to `/dev/mouse0` or `/dev/keyboard0` causes
the Kernel to panic. The reason for this is that
`[Mouse,Keyboard]Device::write` always returns 0, which is explicitly
prohibited by `VERIFY` macro in `Process::sys$write`. The fix seems
trivial; `write` should return EINVAL instead (as is the case with, for
example, `KCOVDevice`).
These methods are no longer needed because SystemServer is able to
populate the DevFS on its own.
Device absolute_path no longer assume a path to the /dev location,
because it really should not assume any path to a Device node.
Because StorageManagement still needs to know the storage name, we
declare a virtual method only for StorageDevices to override, but this
technique should really be removed later on.
The default template argument is only used in one place, and it
looks like it was probably just an oversight. The rest of the Kernel
code all uses u8 as the type. So lets make that the default and remove
the unused template argument, as there doesn't seem to be a reason to
allow the size to be customizable.
Previous implementation sometimes didn't release the key after pressing
and holding shift due to repeating key updates when holding keys. This
meant repeating updates would set/unset `m_both_shift_keys_pressed`
repeatedly, sometimes resulting in shift still being considered pressed
even after you released it.
Simplify left and right shift key pressed logic by tracking both key
states separately and always updating modifiers based on them.
It's easy to forget the responsibility of validating and safely copying
kernel parameters in code that is far away from syscalls. ioctl's are
one such example, and bugs there are just as dangerous as at the root
syscall level.
To avoid this case, utilize the AK::Userspace<T> template in the ioctl
kernel interface so that implementors have no choice but to properly
validate and copy ioctl pointer arguments.
The `#pragma GCC diagnostic` part is needed because the class has
virtual methods with the same name but different arguments, and Clang
tries to warn us that we are not actually overriding anything with
these.
Weirdly enough, GCC does not seem to care.
We use a global setting to determine if Caps Lock should be remapped to
Control because we don't care how keyboard events come in, just that they
should be massaged into different scan codes.
The `proc` filesystem is able to manipulate this global variable using
the `sysctl` utility like so:
```
# sysctl caps_lock_to_ctrl=1
```
Our current implementation does not work in the special case in which
both shift keys are pressed, and then only one of the keys is released,
as this would result in writing lower case letters, instead of the
expected upper case letters.
This commit fixes that by keeping track of the amount of shift keys
that are pressed (instead of if any are at all), and only switching to
the unshifted keymap once all of them are released.

The end goal of this commit is to allow to boot on bare metal with no
PS/2 device connected to the system. It turned out that the original
code relied on the existence of the PS/2 keyboard, so VirtualConsole
called it even though ACPI indicated the there's no i8042 controller on
my real machine because I didn't plug any PS/2 device.
The code is much more flexible, so adding HID support for other type of
hardware (e.g. USB HID) could be much simpler.
Briefly describing the change, we have a new singleton called
HIDManagement, which is responsible to initialize the i8042 controller
if exists, and to enumerate its devices. I also abstracted a bit
things, so now every Human interface device is represented with the
HIDDevice class. Then, there are 2 types of it - the MouseDevice and
KeyboardDevice classes; both are responsible to handle the interface in
the DevFS.
PS2KeyboardDevice, PS2MouseDevice and VMWareMouseDevice classes are
responsible for handling the hardware-specific interface they are
assigned to. Therefore, they are inheriting from the IRQHandler class.
