We now use AK::Error and AK::ErrorOr<T> in both kernel and userspace!
This was a slightly tedious refactoring that took a long time, so it's
not unlikely that some bugs crept in.
Nevertheless, it does pass basic functionality testing, and it's just
real nice to finally see the same pattern in all contexts. :^)

Previously there was a mix of returning plain strings and returning
explicit string views using `operator ""sv`. This change switches them
all to standardized on `operator ""sv` as it avoids a call to strlen.

This singleton simplifies many aspects that we struggled with before:
1. There's no need to make derived classes of Device expose the
constructor as public anymore. The singleton is a friend of them, so he
can call the constructor. This solves the issue with try_create_device
helper neatly, hopefully for good.
2. Getting a reference of the NullDevice is now being done from this
singleton, which means that NullDevice no longer needs to use its own
singleton, and we can apply the try_create_device helper on it too :)
3. We can now defer registration completely after the Device constructor
which means the Device constructor is merely assigning the major and
minor numbers of the Device, and the try_create_device helper ensures it
calls the after_inserting method immediately after construction. This
creates a great opportunity to make registration more OOM-safe.

Instead of doing so in the constructor, let's do immediately after the
constructor, so we can safely pass a reference of a Device, so the
SysFSDeviceComponent constructor can use that object to identify whether
it's a block device or a character device.
This allows to us to not hold a device in SysFSDeviceComponent with a
RefPtr.
Also, we also call the before_removing method in both SlavePTY::unref
and File::unref, so because Device has that method being overrided, it
can ensure the device is removed always cleanly.
|
|
These methods are no longer needed because SystemServer is able to
populate the DevFS on its own.
Device absolute_path no longer assume a path to the /dev location,
because it really should not assume any path to a Device node.
Because StorageManagement still needs to know the storage name, we
declare a virtual method only for StorageDevices to override, but this
technique should really be removed later on.

Dr. POSIX really calls these "open file description", not just
"file description", so let's call them exactly that. :^)
|
|
This is the overwhelming standard in the project, but there were some
cases in the kernel which were not following it, lets fix those cases!
|
|
Instead of returning char const*, we can also give you a StringView.
|
|
Instead, try to create the device objects in separate static methods,
and if we fail for some odd reason to allocate memory for such devices,
just panic with that reason.

SPDX License Identifiers are a more compact / standardized
way of representing file license information.
See: https://spdx.dev/resources/use/#identifiers
This was done with the `ambr` search and replace tool.

Besides removing the monolithic DevFSDeviceInode::determine_name()
method, being able to determine a device's name inside the /dev
hierarchy outside of DevFS has its uses.
|
|
This method will be used later in DevFS, to set the appropriate
permissions for each device node.

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.

Instead of returning a ssize_t where negative values mean error,
we now return KResultOr<size_t> and use the error state to report
errors exclusively.

As suggested by Joshua, this commit adds the 2-clause BSD license as a
comment block to the top of every source file.
For the first pass, I've just added myself for simplicity. I encourage
everyone to add themselves as copyright holders of any file they've
added or modified in some significant way. If I've added myself in
error somewhere, feel free to replace it with the appropriate copyright
holder instead.
Going forward, all new source files should include a license header.

Asking a File if we could possibly read or write it will never mutate
the asking FileDescription&, so it should be const.
|
|
These types can be picked up by including <AK/Types.h>:
* u8, u16, u32, u64 (unsigned)
* i8, i16, i32, i64 (signed)

After reading a bunch of POSIX specs, I've learned that a file descriptor
is the number that refers to a file description, not the description itself.
So this patch renames FileDescriptor to FileDescription, and Process now has
FileDescription* file_description(int fd).
|
|
Also run it across the whole tree to get everything using the One True Style.
We don't yet run this in an automated fashion as it's a little slow, but
there is a snippet to do so in makeall.sh.
|
|
This will allow us to implement different behaviors depending on the role
of the descriptor a File is being accessed through.
