Namely, will_unblock_immediately_without_blocking(Reason).
This virtual function is called on a blocker *before any block occurs*,
if it turns out that we don't need to block the thread after all.
This can happens for one of two reasons:
- UnblockImmediatelyReason::UnblockConditionAlreadyMet
We don't need to block the thread because the condition for
unblocking it is already met.
- UnblockImmediatelyReason::TimeoutInThePast
We don't need to block the thread because a timeout was specified
and that timeout is already in the past.
This patch does not introduce any behavior changes, it's only meant to
clarify this part of the blocking logic.
Namely, unblock_all_blockers_whose_conditions_are_met().
The old name made it sound like things were getting unblocked no matter
what, but that's not actually the case.
What this actually does is iterate through the set of blockers,
unblocking those whose conditions are met. So give it a (very) verbose
name that errs on the side of descriptiveness.
This has several benefits:
1) We no longer just blindly derefence a null pointer in various places
2) We will get nicer runtime error messages if the current process does
turn out to be null in the call location
3) GCC no longer complains about possible nullptr dereferences when
compiling without KUBSAN
This is primarily to be able to remove the GenericLexer include out of
Format.h as well. A subsequent commit will add AK::Result to
GenericLexer, which will cause naming conflicts with other structures
named Result. This can be avoided (for now) by preventing nearly every
file in the system from implicitly including GenericLexer.
Other changes in this commit are to add the GenericLexer include to
files where it is missing.
We don't need to access the Custody cache in IRQs or anything like that,
so it should be fine to use a regular Mutex (via ProtectedValue.)
This allows threads to block while waiting for the custody cache.
Thanks to Sergey for pointing this out. :^)
Usage patterns mean we are more likely to need a Custody we just cached.
Because lookup walks the list from the beginning, prepending new items
instead of appending means they will be found quicker.
This reduces the number of items in the cache we need to walk by 50% for
boot and application startups.
Use a StringBuilder to generate a temporary string buffer with the
slave PTY names. (This works because StringBuilder has 128 bytes of
inline stack capacity before it does any heap allocations.)
This simplifies the DevPtsFS implementation somewhat, as it no longer
requires SlavePTY to register itself with it, since it can now simply
use the list of SlavePTY instances.
Make File inherit from RefCountedBase and provide a custom unref()
implementation. This will allow subclasses that participate in lists to
remove themselves in a safe way when being destroyed.
This patch adds a (spinlock-protected) custody cache. It's a simple
intrusive list containing all currently live custody objects.
This allows us to re-use existing custodies instead of creating them
again and again.
This gives a pretty decent performance improvement on "find /" :^)
We are not using this for anything and it's just been sitting there
gathering dust for well over a year, so let's stop carrying all this
complexity around for no good reason.
This allows us to 1) let go of the Process when an inode is ref'ing for
ProcFSExposedComponent related reasons, and 2) change our ref/unref
implementation.
This patch removes KResult::operator int() and deals with the fallout.
This forces a lot of code to be more explicit in its handling of errors,
greatly improving readability.
Calling error() on KResult is a mistake I made in 7ba991dc37, so
instead of doing that, which triggers an assertion if an error occured,
in Inode::read_entire method with VERIFY(nread <= sizeof(buffer)), we
really should just return the KResult and not to call error() on it.
Since the InodeIndex encapsulates a 64 bit value, it is correct to
ensure that the Kernel is exposing the entire value and the LibC is
aware of it.
This commit requires an entire re-compile because it's essentially a
change in the Kernel ABI, together with a corresponding change in LibC.
Previously, non-blocking read operations on pipes returned EOF instead
of EAGAIN and non-blocking write operations blocked. This fixes
pkgsrc's bmake "eof on job pipe!" error message when running in
non-compatibility mode.
This commit implements the ISO 9660 filesystem as specified in ECMA 119.
Currently, it only supports the base specification and Joliet or Rock
Ridge support is not present. The filesystem will normalize all
filenames to be lowercase (same as Linux).
The filesystem can be mounted directly from a file. Loop devices are
currently not supported by SerenityOS.
Special thanks to Lubrsi for testing on real hardware and providing
profiling help.

...and also RangeAllocator => VirtualRangeAllocator.
This clarifies that the ranges we're dealing with are *virtual* memory
ranges and not anything else.
