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.
Since we have a DSL for specifying syscalls, we can create a verificaton
method for each syscall that can cover most argument (and eventually
capability) verification instead of doing it piecemeal in each syscall
implementation, which can be more error-prone.
Now a new _syscall_verify_* function exists for every syscall, which
calls the real implementation. The syscall table for the syscall handler
now maps to these verify functions.
Other changes:
- Updated the definition grammar to allow options to have a "key:value"
style, to eventually support capabilities.
- Added an "optional" option for parameters that says a syscall will
accept a null value.
- Some bonnibel fixes, as definition file changes weren't always
properly causing updates in the build dep graph.
- The syscall implementation function signatures are no longer exposed
in syscall.h. Also, the unused syscall enum has been removed.
This change adds a new interface DSL for specifying objects (with
methods) and interfaces (that expose objects, and optionally have their
own methods).
Significant changes:
- Add the new scripts/definitions Python module to parse the DSL
- Add the new definitions directory containing DSL definition files
- Use cog to generate syscall-related code in kernel and libj6
- Unify ordering of pointer + length pairs in interfaces
