Currently the SysFS node for USB devices is only initialized for USB
hubs, which means it will cause a kernel crash upon being dereferenced
in a non-hub device. This fixes the problem by making initialization
happen for all USB devices.

InterruptController's model incorrectly returned a char[] instead
of a StringView.

We should actually start counting from the parent directory and not from
the symbolic link as it will represent a wrong count of hops from the
actual mountpoint.
The symlinks in /sys/dev/block and /sys/dev/char worked only by luck,
because I have set it to the wrong parent directory which is the
/sys/dev directory, so with the symlink it was 3 hops to /sys, together
with the root directory, therefore, everything seemed to work.
Now that the device symlinks in /sys/dev/block and /sys/dev/char are set
to the right parent directory and we start measure hops from root
directory with the parent directory of a symlink, everything seem to
work correctly now.

Now that the infrastructure of the Graphics subsystem is quite stable,
it is time to try to fix a long-standing problem, which is the lack of
locking on display connector devices. Reading and writing from multiple
processes to a framebuffer controlled by the display connector is not a
huge problem - it could be solved with POSIX locking.
The real problem is some program that will try to do ioctl operations on
a display connector without the WindowServer being aware of that which
can lead to very bad situations, for example - assuming a framebuffer is
encoded at a known resolution and certain display timings, but another
process changed the ModeSetting of the display connector, leading to
inconsistency on the properties of the current ModeSetting.
To solve this, there's a new "master" ioctl to take "ownership" and
another one to release that ownership of a display connector device. To
ensure we will not hold a Process object forever just because it has an
ownership over a display connector, we hold it with a weak reference,
and if the process is gone, someone else can take an ownership.

This header file represents the entire interface between the kernel and
userland, and as such, no longer should be called FB.h but something
that represents the whole graphics subsystem.

Everything in Kernel/Storage/Partition but DiskPartition has been moved
into LibPartiton. This makes the Partition directory unnecessary so
DiskPartition is moved up into Kernel/Storage.
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
This commit creates a new library LibPartition which will contain
partition related code sharable between Kernel and Userland and
includes DiskPartitionMetadata as the first shared class.

This argument is always set to description.is_blocking(), but
description is also given as a separate argument, so there's no point
to piping it through separately.

The interrupts enabled check in the Kernel mutex is there so that we
don't lock mutexes within a spinlock, because mutexes reenable
interrupts and that will mess up the spinlock in more ways than one if
the thread moves processors. This check is guarded behind a debug flag
because it's too hard to fix all the problems at once, but we regressed
and weren't even getting to init stage 2 with it enabled. With this
commit, we get to stage 2 again. In early boot, there are no interrupts
enabled and spinlocks used, so we can sort of kind of safely ignore the
interrupt state. There might be a better solution with another boot
state flag that checks whether APs are up (because they have interrupts
enabled from the start) but that seems overkill.

Right now the TD and QH descriptor pools look to be susceptible
to a race condition in the event they are accessed simultaneously
by separate threads making USB transfers. This fix does not seem to
add any noticeable overhead.

IDEChannel which is an ATAPort derived class holded a NonnullRefPtr to a
parent IDEController, although we can easily defer the usage of it to
not be in the IDEChannel code at all, so it allows to keep NonnullRefPtr
to the parent ATAController in the ATAPort base class and only there.

This abstraction layer is mainly for ATA ports (AHCI ports, IDE ports).
The goal is to create a convenient and flexible framework so it's
possible to expand to support other types of controller (e.g. Intel PIIX
and ICH IDE controllers) and to abstract operations that are possible on
each component.
Currently only the ATA IDE code is affected by this, making it much
cleaner and readable - the ATA bus mastering code is moved to the
ATAPort code so more implementations in the near future can take
advantage of such functionality easily.
In addition to that, the hierarchy of the ATA IDE code resembles more of
the SATA AHCI code now, which means the IDEChannel class is solely
responsible for getting interrupts, passing them for further processing
in the ATAPort code to take care of the rest of the handling logic.

This simplifies the flow of how things work currently and is a step for
more improvements in the next commits.

We do that to increase clarity of the major and secondary components in
the subsystem. To ensure it's even more understandable, we rename the
files to better represent the class within them and to remove redundancy
in the name.
Also, some includes are removed from the general components of the ATA
components' classes.

We are able to read the EDID from SysFS, therefore there's no need to
provide this ioctl on a DisplayConnector anymore.
Also, now we can simply require the video pledge to be set before doing
any ioctl on a DisplayConnector.
|
|
The EDID blob is now exposed in the SysFS for each DisplayConnector, so
we don't need to use the ioctl interface anymore to read the EDID.

It is starting to get a little messy with how each device can try to add
or remove itself to either /sys/dev/block or /sys/dev/char directories.
To better do this, we introduce 4 virtual methods to take care of that,
so until we ensure all nodes in /sys/dev/block and /sys/dev/char are
actual symlinks, we allow the Device base class to call virtual methods
upon insertion or before being destroying, so it add itself elegantly to
either of these directories or remove itself when needed.
For special cases where we need to create symlinks, we have two virtual
methods to be called otherwise to do almost the same thing mentioned
before, but to use symlinks instead.

Under normal conditions (when mounting SysFS in /sys), there will be a
new directory in the /sys/devices directory called "graphics".
For now, under that directory there will be only a sub-directory called
"connectors" which will contain all DisplayConnectors' details, each in
its own sub-directory too, distinguished in naming with its minor
number.
Therefore, /sys/devices/graphics/connectors/MINOR_NUMBER/ will contain:
- General device attributes such as mutable_mode_setting_capable,
double_buffering_capable, flush_support, partial_flush_support and
refresh_rate_support. These values are exposed in the ioctl interface
of the DisplayConnector class too, but these can be useful later on
for command line utilities that want/need to expose these basic
settings.
- The EDID blob, simply named "edid". This will help userspace to fetch
the edid without the need of using the ioctl interface later on.

This should avoid some allocations during simple cases of munmap,
mprotect and msync, where you usually don't have a lot of regions anyway
|
|
This indirectly resolves a fixme in sys$msync

This change in fact does the following:
1. Use support for symlinks between /sys/dev/block/ storage device
identifier nodes and devices in /sys/devices/storage/{LUN}.
2. Add basic nodes in a /sys/devices/storage/{LUN} directory, to let
userspace to know about the device and its details.
|
|
These methods are essentially splitted from the after_inserting method
and the will_be_destroyed method so later on we can allow Storage
devices to override the after_inserting method and the will_be_destroyed
method while still being able to use shared functionality as before,
such as adding the device to and removing it from the device list.
|
|
|

|
|
This enforces us to remove duplicated code across the SysFS code. This
results in great simplification of how the SysFS works now, because we
enforce one way to treat SysFSDirectory objects.
|
|
Instead, let the /sys/dev/block and /sys/dev/char directories to handle
the registering part of SysFSDeviceComponents by themselves.
|
|
This will be used later on to help connecting a node at /sys/dev/block/
that represents a Storage device to a directory in /sys/devices/storage/
with details on that device in that directory.
|
|
These methods will be used later on to introduce symbolic links support
in the SysFS, so the kernel will be able to resolve relative paths of
components in filesystem based on using the m_parent_directory pointer
in each SysFSComponent object.

LUN address is essentially how people used to address SCSI devices back
in the day we had these devices more in use. However, SCSI was taken as
an abstraction layer for many Unix and Unix-like systems, so it still
common to see LUN addresses in use. In Serenity, we don't really provide
such abstraction layer, and therefore until now, we didn't use LUNs too.
However (again), this changes, as we want to let users to address their
devices under SysFS easily. LUNs make sense in that regard, because they
can be easily adapted to different interfaces besides SCSI.
For example, for legacy ATA hard drive being connected to the first IDE
controller which was enumerated on the PCI bus, and then to the primary
channel as slave device, the LUN address would be 0:0:1.
To make this happen, we add unique ID number to each StorageController,
which increments by 1 for each new instance of StorageController. Then,
we adapt the ATA and NVMe devices to use these numbers and generate LUN
in the construction time.

Also, don't mark it as explicit.
