2021-11-08Kernel: Replace KResult and KResultOr<T> with Error and ErrorOr<T>Andreas Kling
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. :^)
2021-10-31Kernel: Clarify ambiguous {File,Description}::absolute_pathBen Wiederhake
Found due to smelly code in InodeFile::absolute_path. In particular, this replaces the following misleading methods: File::absolute_path This method *never* returns an actual path, and if called on an InodeFile (which is impossible), it would VERIFY_NOT_REACHED(). OpenFileDescription::try_serialize_absolute_path OpenFileDescription::absolute_path These methods do not guarantee to return an actual path (just like the other method), and just like Custody::absolute_path they do not guarantee accuracy. In particular, just renaming the method made a TOCTOU bug obvious. The new method signatures use KResultOr, just like try_serialize_absolute_path() already did.
2021-10-03Kernel: Use `operator ""sv` in all class_name() implementationsBrian Gianforcaro
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.
2021-09-07Kernel: Rename FileDescription => OpenFileDescriptionAndreas Kling
Dr. POSIX really calls these "open file description", not just "file description", so let's call them exactly that. :^)
2021-09-06Kernel: Simplify WatchDescription::create()Andreas Kling
2021-09-05Kernel: Tidy up InodeWatcher constructionAndreas Kling
- Rename create() => try_create() - Use adopt_nonnull_ref_or_enomem()
2021-07-21Revert "Kernel: Use IntrusiveList for keeping track of InodeWatchers"Andreas Kling
This reverts commit 43d6a7e74ec76bf23f78ca281d54c60bb7b952d1. This breaks multi-inode watchers.

2021-07-17Kernel: Rename Lock to MutexAndreas Kling
Let's be explicit about what kind of lock this is meant to be.
2021-07-11Kernel: Use Forward.h headers moreAndreas Kling
2021-07-11Kernel: Make various T::class_name() and similar return StringViewAndreas Kling
Instead of returning char const*, we can also give you a StringView.
2021-06-24Everywhere: Use nothrow new with `adopt_{ref,own}_if_nonnull`Daniel Bertalan
This commit converts naked `new`s to `AK::try_make` and `AK::try_create` wherever possible. If the called constructor is private, this can not be done, so we instead now use the standard-defined and compiler-agnostic `new (nothrow)`.
2021-05-13Kernel: Make InodeWatcher::crate API OOM safeBrian Gianforcaro
2021-05-12Kernel: Implement multi-watch InodeWatcher :^)sin-ack
This patch modifies InodeWatcher to switch to a one watcher, multiple watches architecture. The following changes have been made: - The watch_file syscall is removed, and in its place the create_iwatcher, iwatcher_add_watch and iwatcher_remove_watch calls have been added. - InodeWatcher now holds multiple WatchDescriptions for each file that is being watched. - The InodeWatcher file descriptor can be read from to receive events on all watched files.

2021-04-22Everything: Move to SPDX license identifiers in all files.Brian Gianforcaro
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. ambr --no-parent-ignore --key-from-file --rep-from-file key.txt rep.txt *
2021-03-17Kernel: Refactor storage stack with u64 as file operations offsetJean-Baptiste Boric
2020-12-14Kernel: Move InodeWatcher::Event into Kernel/API/InodeWatcherEventItamar
This allows userspace code to parse these events.
2020-09-19Kernel: Let InodeWatcher track child inode numbers instead of namesAndreas Kling
First of all, this fixes a dumb info leak where we'd write kernel heap addresses (StringImpl*) into userspace memory when reading a watcher. Instead of trying to pass names to userspace, we now simply pass the child inode index. Nothing in userspace makes use of this yet anyway, so it's not like we're breaking anything. We'll see how this evolves.
2020-09-13Kernel: Make copy_to/from_user safe and remove unnecessary checksTom
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.
2020-08-04Kernel: Make File::write() and File::read() return KResultOr<size_t>Andreas Kling
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.
2020-07-04Kernel: Add "child added" and "child removed" InodeWatcher eventsAndreas Kling
The child name is not yet accessible to userspace, but will be in a future patch.
2020-04-10Kernel: Add explicit offset parameter to File::read etcConrad Pankoff
2020-02-16Kernel: Move all code into the Kernel namespaceAndreas Kling
2020-01-18Meta: Add license header to source filesAndreas Kling
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.
2019-11-04Kernel: Make File's can_read/can_write take a const FileDescription&Andreas Kling
Asking a File if we could possibly read or write it will never mutate the asking FileDescription&, so it should be const.
2019-07-22Kernel: Add a mechanism for listening for changes to an inode.Andreas Kling
The syscall is quite simple: int watch_file(const char* path, int path_length); It returns a file descriptor referring to a "InodeWatcher" object in the kernel. It becomes readable whenever something changes about the inode. Currently this is implemented by hooking the "metadata dirty bit" in Inode which isn't perfect, but it's a start. :^)
