This simplifies the DevPtsFS implementation somewhat, as it no longer
requires SlavePTY to register itself with it, since it can now simply
use the list of SlavePTY instances.

This forced me to also come up with error codes for a bunch of
situations where we'd previously just panic the kernel.
|
|
This allows file systems to return arbitrary error codes instead of just
an Inode or not an Inode.
|
|
All file system classes are expected to keep their root Inode object
in memory, so this function can safely return an Inode&.
|
|
This was only used in one place: VirtualFileSystem::rmdir(), and that
has now been converted to a simple directory traversal.
|
|
No sense in forcing callers to construct a String. One more small step
towards not using String in the kernel.
|
|
|
|
This matches our common naming style better.
|
|
|
|
The error handling in all these cases was still using the old style
negative values to indicate errors. We have a nicer solution for this
now with KResultOr<T>. This change switches the interface and then all
implementers to use the new style.

SPDX License Identifiers are a more compact / standardized
way of representing file license information.

This was done with the `ambr` search and replace tool.

Use the DistinctNumeric mechanism to make InodeIndex a strongly typed
integer type.

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.

Unlike DirectoryEntry (which is used when constructing directories),
DirectoryEntryView does not manage storage for file names. Names are
just StringViews.
This is much more suited to the directory traversal API and makes
it easier to implement this in file system classes since they no
longer need to create temporary name copies while traversing.
|
|
Certain implementations of Inode::directory_entry_count were calling
functions which returned errors, but had no way of surfacing them.
Switch the return type to KResultOr<size_t> and start observing these
error paths.

...instead of going through their identifiers. See the previous commit for
reasoning.

These APIs were clearly modeled after Ext2FS internals, and make perfect sense
in Ext2FS context. The new APIs are more generic, and map better to the
semantics exported to the userspace, where inode identifiers only appear in
stat() and readdir() output, but never in any input.
This will also hopefully reduce the potential for races (see commit https://github.com/SerenityOS/serenity/commit/c44b4d61f350703fcf1bbd8f6e353b9c6c4210c2).
Lastly, this makes it way more viable to implement a filesystem that only
synthesizes its inodes lazily when queried, and destroys them when they are no
longer in use. With inode identifiers being used to reference inodes, the only
choice for such a filesystem is to persist any inode it has given out the
identifier for, because it might be queried at any later time. With direct
references to inodes, the filesystem will know when the last reference is
dropped and the inode can be safely destroyed.

implementation.
Allow file system implementation to return meaningful error codes to
callers of the FileDescription::read_entire_file(). This allows both
Process::sys$readlink() and Process::sys$module_load() to return more
detailed errors to the user.

Return a KResultOr<NonnullRefPtr<Inode>> instead of returning errors in
an out-parameter.
|
|
None of the clients of this function actually used the returned Inode,
so it can simply return a KResult instead.
|
|
Previously this API would return an InodeIdentifier, which meant that
there was a race in path resolution where an inode could be unlinked
in between finding the InodeIdentifier for a path component, and
actually resolving that to an Inode object.
Attaching a test that would quickly trip an assertion before.
Test: Kernel/path-resolution-race.cpp

This changes copyright holder to myself for the source code files that I've
created or have (almost) completely rewritten. Not included are the files
that were significantly changed by others even though it was me who originally
created them (think HtmlView), or the many other files I've contributed code to.

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.

If we're creating something that should have a different owner than the
current process's UID/GID, we need to plumb that all the way through
VFS down to the FS functions.
|
|
Unfortunately, that also means it can no longer inherit from SynthFS.
|
|
I was messing around with this to tell the compiler that these functions
always return the same value no matter how many times you call them.
It doesn't really seem to improve code generation and it looks weird so
let's just get rid of it.

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.
