If a TLB flush request is broadcast to other processors and the addresses
to flush are user mode addresses, we can ignore such a request on the
target processor if the page directory currently in use doesn't match
the addresses to be flushed. We still need to broadcast to all processors
in that case because the other processors may switch to that same page
directory at any time.

Compared to version 10 this fixes a bunch of formatting issues, mostly
around structs/classes with attributes like [[gnu::packed]], and
incorrect insertion of spaces in parameter types ("T &"/"T &&").
I also removed a bunch of // clang-format off/on and FIXME comments that
are no longer relevant - on the other hand it tried to destroy a couple of
neatly formatted comments, so I had to add some as well.

When doing the cast to u64 on the page directory physical address,
the sign bit was being extended. This only beomes an issue when
crossing the 2 GiB boundary. At >= 2 GiB, the physical address
has the sign bit set. For example, 0x80000000.
This set all the reserved bits in the PDPTE, causing a GPF
when loading the PDPT pointer into CR3. The reserved bits are
presumably there to stop you writing out a physical address that
the CPU physically cannot handle, as the size of the reserved bits
is determined by the physical address width of the CPU.
This fixes this by casting to FlatPtr instead. I believe the sign
extension only happens when casting to a bigger type. I'm also using
FlatPtr because it's a pointer we're writing into the PDPTE.
sizeof(FlatPtr) will always be the same size as sizeof(void*).
This also now asserts that the physical address in the PDPTE is
within the max physical address the CPU supports. This is better
than getting a GPF, because CPU::handle_crash tries to do the same
operation that caused the GPF in the first place. That would cause
an infinite loop of GPFs until the stack was exhausted, causing a
triple fault.
As far as I know and tested, I believe we can now use the full 32-bit
physical range without crashing.
Fixes #4584. See that issue for the full debugging story.

Problem:
- C functions with no arguments require a single `void` in the argument list.
Solution:
- Put the `void` in the argument list of functions in C header files.

This is a crude protection against IOPL elevation attacks. If for
any reason we find ourselves about to switch to a user mode thread
with IOPL != 0, we'll now simply panic the kernel.
If this happens, it basically means that something tricked the kernel
into incorrectly modifying the IOPL of a thread, so it's no longer
safe to trust the kernel anyway.
|
|
It was possible to overwrite the entire EFLAGS register since we didn't
do any masking in the ptrace and sigreturn syscalls.
This made it trivial to gain IO privileges by raising IOPL to 3 and
then you could talk to hardware to do all kinds of nasty things.
Thanks to @allesctf for finding these issues! :^)

IRQ 7 and 15 on the PIC architecture are used for spurious interrupts.
IRQ 7 could also be used for LPT connection, and IRQ 15 can be used for
the secondary IDE channel. Therefore, we need to allow to install a
real IRQ handler and check if a real IRQ was asserted. If so, we handle
them in the usual way.
A note on this fix - unregistering or registering a new IRQ handler
after we already registered one in the spurious interrupt handler is
not supported yet.

Problem:
- `(void)` simply casts the expression to void. This is understood to
indicate that it is ignored, but this is really a compiler trick to
get the compiler to not generate a warning.
Solution:
- Use the `[[maybe_unused]]` attribute to indicate the value is unused.
Note:
- Functions taking a `(void)` argument list have also been changed to
`()` because this is not needed and shows up in the same grep
command.

This prevents zombies created by multi-threaded applications and brings
our model back to closer to what other OSs do.
This also means that SIGSTOP needs to halt all threads, and SIGCONT needs
to resume those threads.

Fix some problems with join blocks where the joining thread block
condition was added twice, which lead to a crash when trying to
unblock that condition a second time.
Deferred block condition evaluation by File objects were also not
properly keeping the File object alive, which lead to some random
crashes and corruption problems.
Other problems were caused by the fact that the Queued state didn't
handle signals/interruptions consistently. To solve these issues we
remove this state entirely, along with Thread::wait_on and change
the WaitQueue into a BlockCondition instead.
Also, deliver signals even if there isn't going to be a context switch
to another thread.
Fixes #4336 and #4330

Instead of flushing the TLB on the current processor first and then
notifying the other processors to do the same, notify the others
first, and while waiting on the others flush our own.
|
|
Move counting interrupts out of the handle_interrupt method so that
it is done in all cases without the interrupt handler having to
implement it explicitly.
Also make the counter an atomic value as e.g. the LocalAPIC interrupts
may be triggered on multiple processors simultaneously.
Fixes #4297

This changes the Thread::wait_on function to not enable interrupts
upon leaving, which caused some problems with page fault handlers
and in other situations. It may now be called from critical
sections, with interrupts enabled or disabled, and returns to the
same state.
This also requires some fixes to Lock. To aid debugging, a new
define LOCK_DEBUG is added that enables checking for Lock leaks
upon finalization of a Thread.
|
|
This adds the ability to pass a pointer to kernel thread/process.
Also add the ability to use a closure as thread function, which
allows passing information to a kernel thread more easily.

When two processors send each others a SMP message at the same time
they need to process messages while waiting for delivery of the
message they just sent, or they will deadlock.
|
|
When trying to get a stack trace of a thread on another CPU we send
a SMP message to that processor to capture the stack trace for us.
|
|
We need to make sure the change to this variable is visible to all
processors instantly.
|
|
Function calls that are deferred will be executed before a thread
enters a pre-emptable state (meaning it is not in a critical section
and it is not in an irq handler). If it is not already in such a
state, it will be called immediately.
This is meant to be used from e.g. IRQ handlers where we might want
to block a thread until an interrupt happens.
|
|
|
|
It's possible that we broadcast an IPI message right at the same time
another processor requests a halt. Rather than spinning forever waiting
for that message to be handled, check if we should halt while waiting.

Problem:
- `constexpr` functions are decorated with the `inline` specifier
keyword. This is redundant because `constexpr` functions are
implicitly `inline`.
- [dcl.constexpr], ยง7.1.5/2 in the C++11 standard): "constexpr
functions and constexpr constructors are implicitly inline (7.1.2)".
Solution:
- Remove the redundant `inline` keyword.

In case we want to rely more on TSC in time keeping in the future, idk
This adds:
- RDTSCP, for when the RDTSCP instruction is available
- CONSTANT_TSC, for when the TSC has a constant frequency, invariant
under things like the CPU boosting its frequency.
- NONSTOP_TSC, for when the TSC doesn't pause when the CPU enters
sleep states.
AMD cpus and newer intel cpus set the INVSTC bit (bit 8 in edx of
extended cpuid 0x8000000008), which implies both CONSTANT_TSC and
NONSTOP_TSC. Some older intel processors have CONSTANT_TSC but not
NONSTOP_TSC; this is set based on cpu model checks.
There isn't a ton of documentation on this, so this follows Linux
terminology and http://blog.tinola.com/?e=54
CONSTANT_TSC:
https://github.com/torvalds/linux/commit/39b3a7910556005a7a0d042ecb7ff98bfa84ea57
NONSTOP_TSC:
https://github.com/torvalds/linux/commit/40fb17152c50a69dc304dd632131c2f41281ce44
qemu disables invtsc (bit 8 in edx of extended cpuid 0x8000000008)
by default even if the host cpu supports it. It can be enabled by
running with `SERENITY_QEMU_CPU=host,migratable=off` set.

Fix gracefully failing these calls if used within IRQ handlers. If we're
handling IRQs, we need to handle these failures first, because we can't
really resolve page faults in a meaningful way. But if we know that it
was one of these functions that failed, then we can gracefully handle
the situation.
This solves a crash where the Scheduler attempts to produce backtraces
in the timer irq, some of which cause faults.
Fixes #3492

Since the CPU already does almost all necessary validation steps
for us, we don't really need to attempt to do this. Doing it
ourselves doesn't really work very reliably, because we'd have to
account for other processors modifying virtual memory, and we'd
have to account for e.g. pages not being able to be allocated
due to insufficient resources.
So change the copy_to/from_user (and associated helper functions)
to use the new safe_memcpy, which will return whether it succeeded
or not. The only manual validation step needed (which the CPU
can't perform for us) is making sure the pointers provided by user
mode aren't pointing to kernel mappings.
To make it easier to read/write from/to either kernel or user mode
data add the UserOrKernelBuffer helper class, which will internally
either use copy_from/to_user or directly memcpy, or pass the data
through directly using a temporary buffer on the stack.
Last but not least we need to keep syscall params trivial as we
need to copy them from/to user mode using copy_from/to_user.
|
|
These special functions can be used to safely copy/set memory or
determine the length of a string, e.g. provided by user mode.
In the event of a page fault, safe_memcpy/safe_memset will return
false and safe_strnlen will return -1.
|
|
Since "rings" typically refer to code execution and user processes
can also execute in ring 0, rename these functions to more accurately
describe what they mean: kernel processes and user processes.
|
|
The ring is determined based on the CS register. This fixes crashes
being handled as ring 3 crashes even though EIP/CS clearly showed
that the crash happened in the kernel.

features
The exit condition for the loop was sizeof(m_features) * 8,
which was 32. Presumably this was supposed to mean 32 bits, but it
actually made it stop as soon as it reached the 6th bit.
Also add detection for more SIMD CPU features.
|
|
When unmapping regions, check if page tables can be freed.
This is a follow-up change for #3254.
|

The SI prefixes "k", "M", "G" mean "10^3", "10^6", "10^9".
The IEC prefixes "Ki", "Mi", "Gi" mean "2^10", "2^20", "2^30".
Let's use the correct name, at least in code.
Only changes the name of the constants, no other behavior change.
|
|
The behaviour of the PT_TRACEME feature has been broken for some time,
this change fixes it.
When this ptrace flag is used, the traced process should be paused
before exiting execve.
We previously were sending the SIGSTOP signal at a stage where
interrupts are disabled, and the traced process continued executing
normally, without pausing and waiting for the tracer.
This change fixes it.
|
|
This makes the Kernel build cleanly with -Wmissing-declarations.
|
|
Upon leaving a critical section (such as a SpinLock) we need to
check if we're already asynchronously invoking the Scheduler.
Otherwise we might end up triggering another context switch
as soon as leaving the scheduler lock.
Fixes #2883
|
|
|
|
For now, only the non-standard _SC_NPROCESSORS_CONF and
_SC_NPROCESSORS_ONLN are implemented.
Use them to make ninja pick a better default -j value.
While here, make the ninja package script not fail if
no other port has been built yet.
|
|
We need to halt the BSP briefly until all APs are ready for the
first context switch, but we can't hold the same spinlock by all
of them while doing so. So, while the APs are waiting on each other
they need to release the scheduler lock, and then once signaled
re-acquire it. Should solve some timing dependent hangs or crashes,
most easily observed using qemu with kvm disabled.
|
|
|
|
Rather than sending one TLB flush request for each page,
aggregate them so that we're not spamming the other
processors with FlushTLB IPIs.
|
|
We can now properly initialize all processors without
crashing by sending SMP IPI messages to synchronize memory
between processors.
We now initialize the APs once we have the scheduler running.
This is so that we can process IPI messages from the other
cores.
Also rework interrupt handling a bit so that it's more of a
1:1 mapping. We need to allocate non-sharable interrupts for
IPIs.
This also fixes the occasional hang/crash because all
CPUs now synchronize memory with each other.
|
|
The short-circuit path added for waiting on a queue that already had a
pending wake was able to return with interrupts disabled, which breaks
the API contract of wait_on() always returning with IF=1.
Fix this by adding a way to override the restored IF in ScopedCritical.

These changes solve a number of problems with the software
context swithcing:
* The scheduler lock really should be held throughout context switches
* Transitioning from the initial (idle) thread to another needs to
hold the scheduler lock
* Transitioning from a dying thread to another also needs to hold
the scheduler lock
* Dying threads cannot necessarily be finalized if they haven't
switched out of it yet, so flag them as active while a processor
is running it (the Running state may be switched to Dying while
it still is actually running)

If we're trying to walk the stack for another thread, we can
no longer retreive the EBP register from Thread::m_tss. Instead,
we need to look at the top of the kernel stack, because all threads
not currently running were last in kernel mode. Context switches
now always trigger a brief switch to kernel mode, and Thread::m_tss
only is used to save ESP and EIP.
Fixes #2678
