2019-02-16	Kernel: Add Device base class for CharacterDevice.	Andreas Kling
	..to prepare for adding a BlockDevice class.
2019-02-15	Use modern C++ attributes instead of __attribute__ voodoo.	Andreas Kling
	This is quite nice, although I wish [[gnu::always_inline]] implied inline. Also "gnu::" is kind of a wart, but whatcha gonna do.
2019-02-06	Bootloader: Locate the kernel's data segment and clear it.	Andreas Kling
	This was a constant source of stupid bugs and I kept postponing it because I wasn't in the mood to write assembly code. Until now! :^)
2019-02-01	Kernel: VFS::open/create should take base Inode& instead of InodeIdentifier.	Andreas Kling

2019-02-01	Kernel: mkdir() should use the containing directory's FS for inode creation.	Andreas Kling

2019-01-31	Big, possibly complete sweep of naming changes.	Andreas Kling

2019-01-31	Kernel: Include absolute paths of mount points in /proc/mounts	Andreas Kling

2019-01-31	Add uid and gid to CharacterDevices.	Andreas Kling
	The vast majority of them will be owned by 0:0 (the default.) However, PTY pairs will now be owned by the uid:gid of the opening process.
2019-01-31	Make stat() work on device files again.	Andreas Kling
	FileDescriptor will now keep a pointer to the original inode even after opening it resolves to a character device. Fixed up /bin/ls to display major and minor device numbers instead of size for device files.
2019-01-30	Deallocate PTY's when they close.	Andreas Kling
	This required a fair bit of plumbing. The CharacterDevice::close() virtual will now be closed by ~FileDescriptor(), allowing device implementations to do custom cleanup at that point. One big problem remains: if the master PTY is closed before the slave PTY, we go into crashy land.
2019-01-29	Implement basic chmod() syscall and /bin/chmod helper.	Andreas Kling
	Only raw octal modes are supported right now. This patch also changes mode_t from 32-bit to 16-bit to match the on-disk type used by Ext2FS. I also ran into EPERM being errno=0 which was confusing, so I inserted an ESUCCESS in its place.
2019-01-28	Add support for removing directories.	Andreas Kling
	It's really only supported in Ext2FS since SynthFS doesn't really want you mucking around with its files. This is pretty neat though :^) I ran into some trouble with HashMap while working on this but opted to work around it and leave that for a separate investigation.
2019-01-23	Move VFS sources into Kernel/.	Andreas Kling
