You can now mmap a file as private and writable, and the changes you
make will only be visible to you.
This works because internally a MAP_PRIVATE region is backed by a
unique PrivateInodeVMObject instead of using the globally shared
SharedInodeVMObject like we always did before. :^)
Fixes#1045.
Previously, VFS::open() would only use the passed flags for permission checking
purposes, and Process::sys$open() would set them on the created FileDescription
explicitly. Now, they should be set by VFS::open() on any files being opened,
including files that the kernel opens internally.
This also lets us get rid of the explicit check for whether or not the returned
FileDescription was a preopen fd, and in fact, fixes a bug where a read-only
preopen fd without any other flags would be considered freshly opened (due to
O_RDONLY being indistinguishable from 0) and granted a new set of flags.
As suggested by Joshua, this commit adds the 2-clause BSD license as a
comment block to the top of every source file.
For the first pass, I've just added myself for simplicity. I encourage
everyone to add themselves as copyright holders of any file they've
added or modified in some significant way. If I've added myself in
error somewhere, feel free to replace it with the appropriate copyright
holder instead.
Going forward, all new source files should include a license header.
This has been a FIXME for a long time. We now apply the provided
read/write permissions to the constructed FileDescription when opening
a File object via File::open().
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.
