This is the first of two rather big changes to clean up includes
throughout the project. In this commit, the implicit semi-dependency on
libc that bonnibel adds to every module is removed. Previously, I was
sloppy with includes of libc headers and include directory order. Now,
the freestanding headers from libc are split out into libc_free, and an
implicit real dependency is added onto this module, unless `no_libc` is
set to `True`. The full libc needs to be explicitly specified as a
dependency to be used.
Several things needed to change in order to do this:
- Many places use `memset` or `memcpy` that cannot depend on libc. The
kernel has basic implementations of them itself for this reason. Now
those functions are moved into the lower-level `j6/memutils.h`, and
libc merely references them. Other modules are now free to reference
those functions from libj6 instead.
- The kernel's `assert.h` was renamed kassert.h (matching its `kassert`
function) so that the new `util/assert.h` can use `__has_include` to
detect it and make sure the `assert` macro is usable in libutil code.
- Several implementation header files under `__libj6/` also moved under
the new libc_free.
- A new `include_phase` property has been added to modules for Bonnibel,
which can be "normal" (default) or "late" which uses `-idirafter`
instead of `-I` for includes.
- Since `<utility>` and `<new>` are not freestanding, implementations of
`remove_reference`, `forward`, `move`, and `swap` were added to the
`util` namespace to replace those from `std`, and `util/new.h` was
added to declare `operator new` and `operator delete`.
Several minor changes related to debug output.
- Colorize the debugcon logger like the userspace one.
- Display the process and thread for each cpu in the panic display
- Skip the panic() frame in panic back traces
- Don't try to follow obviously bad (non-canonical) stack frame pointers
This change introduces test_runner, which runs unit or integration tests
and then tells the kernel to exit QEMU with a status code indicating the
number of failed tests.
The test_runner program is not loaded by default. Use the test manifest
to enable it:
./configure --manifest=assets/manifests/test.yml
A number of tests from the old src/tests have moved over. More to come,
as well as moving code from testapp before getting rid of it.
The test.sh script has been repurposed to be a "headless" version of
qemu.sh for running tests, and it exits with the appropriate exit code.
(Though ./qemu.sh gained the ability to exit with the correct exit code
as well.) Exit codes from kernel panics have been updated so that the
bash scripts should exit with code 127.
The kernel/main.cpp and kernel/memory_bootstrap.cpp files had become
something of a junk drawer. This change cleans them up in the following
ways:
- Most CPU initialization has moved to cpu.cpp, allowing several
functions to be made static and removed from cpu.h
- Multi-core startup code has moved to the new smp.h and smp.cpp, and
ap_startup.s has been renamed smp.s to match.
- run_constructors() has moved to memory_bootstrap.cpp, and all the
functionality of that file has been hidden behind a new public
interface mem::initialize().
- load_init_server() has moved from memory_bootstrap.cpp to main.cpp
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
