Adding the util::deque container, implemented with the util::linked_list
of arrays of items.
Also, use the deque for a kobject's blocked thread list to maintain
order instead of a vector using remove_swap().
Added the handle_clone syscall which allows for cloning a handle with
a subset of the original handle's capabilities.
Related changes:
- srv.init now calls handle_clone on its system handle, and load_program
was changed to allow this second system handle to be passed to loaded
programs instead. However, as drv.uart is still a driver AND a log
reader, this new handle is not actually passed yet.
- The definition parser was using a set for the cap list, which meant
the order (and thus values) of caps was not static.
- Some code in objects/handle.h was made more explicit about what bits
meant what.
This change finally adds capabilities to handles. Included changes:
- j6_handle_t is now again 64 bits, with the highest 8 bits being a type
code, and the next highest 24 bits being the capability mask, so that
programs can check type/caps without calling the kernel.
- The definitions grammar now includes a `capabilities [ ]` section on
objects, to list what capabilities are relevant.
- j6/caps.h is auto-generated from object capability lists
- init_libj6 again sets __handle_self and __handle_sys, this is a bit
of a hack.
- A new syscall, j6_handle_list, will return the list of existing
handles owned by the calling process.
- syscall_verify.cpp.cog now actually checks that the needed
capabilities exist on handles before allowing the call.
This commit contains a couple large, interdependent changes:
- In preparation for capability checking, the _syscall_verify_*
functions now load most handles passed in, and verify that they exist
and are of the correct type. Lists and out-handles are not converted
to objects.
- Also in preparation for capability checking, the internal
representation of handles has changed. j6_handle_t is now 32 bits, and
a new j6_cap_t (also 32 bits) is added. Handles of a process are now a
util::map<j6_handle_t, handle> where handle is a new struct containing
the id, capabilities, and object pointer.
- The kernel object definition DSL gained a few changes to support auto
generating the handle -> object conversion in the _syscall_verify_*
functions, mostly knowing the object type, and an optional "cname"
attribute on objects where their names differ from C++ code.
(Specifically vma/vm_area)
- Kernel object code and other code under kernel/objects is now in a new
obj:: namespace, because fuck you <cstdlib> for putting "system" in
the global namespace. Why even have that header then?
- Kernel object types constructed with the construct_handle helper now
have a creation_caps static member to declare what capabilities a
newly created object's handle should have.
- Add a tag field to all endpoint messages, which doubles as a
notification field
- Add a endpoint_bind_irq syscall to enable an endpoint to listen for
interrupt notifications. This mechanism needs to change.
- Add a temporary copy of the serial port code to nulldrv, and let it
take responsibility for COM2
