In places where the "user" state is available, like interrupt handlers,
panic() and kassert() can now take an optional pointer to that user
cpu_state structure, and the panic handler will print that out as well.
Kernel panics previously only stopped the calling core. This commit
re-implements the panic system to allow us to stop all cores on a panic.
Changes include:
- panic now sends an NMI to all cores. This means we can't control the
contents of their registers, so panic information has been moved to a
global struct, and the panicking cpu sets the pointer to that data in
its cpu_data.
- the panic_handler is now set up with mutexes to print appropriately
and only initialize objects once.
- copying _current_gsbase into the panic handler, and #including the
cpprt.cpp file (so that we can define NDEBUG and not have it try to
link the assert code back in)
- making the symbol data pointer in kargs an actual pointer again, not
an address - and carrying that through to the panic handler
- the number of cpus is now saved globally in the kernel as g_num_cpus
Continuing moving things out of kutil. The assert as implemented could
only ever work in the kernel, so remaining kutil uses of kassert have
been moved to including standard C assert instead.
Along the way, kassert was broken out into panic::panic and kassert,
and the panic.serial namespace was renamed panicking.
Updated kassert to be an actual function, and used the __builtin_*
functions for location data. Updated the panic handler protocol to
include sending location data as three more parameters. Updated the
serial panic handler to display that data along with the (optional)
message.
I'm a tabs guy. I like tabs, it's an elegant way to represent
indentation instead of brute-forcing it. But I have to admit that the
world seems to be going towards spaces, and tooling tends not to play
nice with tabs. So here we go, changing the whole repo to spaces since
I'm getting tired of all the inconsistent formatting.
Created the framework for using different loadable panic handlers,
loaded by the bootloader. Initial panic handler is panic.serial, which
contains its own serial driver and stacktrace code.
Other related changes:
- Asserts are now based on the NMI handler - panic handlers get
installed as the NMI interrupt handler
- Changed symbol table generation: now use nm's own demangling and
sorting, and include symbol size in the table
- Move the linker script argument out of the kernel target, and into the
kernel's specific module, so that other programs (ie, panic handlers)
can use the kernel target as well
- Some asm changes to boot.s to help GDB see stack frames - but this
might not actually be all that useful
- Renamed user_rsp to just rsp in cpu_state - everything in there is
describing the 'user' state
