This makes for nicer handling of errors compared to checking whether a
RefPtr is null. Additionally, this will give way to return different
types of errors in the future.
We don't want to be holding the MM lock if it's a user region and we
have to consult the page directory, since that can lead to a deadlock
if we don't already have the page directory lock.
Taking a reference or a pointer to a value that's not aligned properly
is undefined behavior. While `[[gnu::packed]]` ensures that reads from
and writes to fields of packed structs is a safe operation, the
information about the reduced alignment is lost when creating pointers
to these values.
Weirdly enough, GCC's undefined behavior sanitizer doesn't flag these,
even though the doc of `-Waddress-of-packed-member` says that it usually
leads to UB. In contrast, x86_64 Clang does flag these, which renders
the 64-bit kernel unable to boot.
For now, the `address-of-packed-member` warning will only be enabled in
the kernel, as it is absolutely crucial there because of KUBSAN, but
might get excessively noisy for the userland in the future.
Also note that we can't append to `CMAKE_CXX_FLAGS` like we do for other
flags in the kernel, because flags added via `add_compile_options` come
after these, so the `-Wno-address-of-packed-member` in the root would
cancel it out.
When booting AP's, we identity map a region at 0x8000 while doing the
initial bringup sequence. This is the only thing in the kernel that
requires an identity mapping, yet we had a bunch of generic API's and a
dedicated VirtualRangeAllocator in every PageDirectory for this purpose.
This patch simplifies the situation by moving the identity mapping logic
to the AP boot code and removing the generic API's.
...and also RangeAllocator => VirtualRangeAllocator.
This clarifies that the ranges we're dealing with are *virtual* memory
ranges and not anything else.
