Now that we have the address arbiter extracted to its own class, we can
fix an innaccuracy with the kernel. Said inaccuracy being that there
isn't only one address arbiter. Each process instance contains its own
AddressArbiter instance in the actual kernel.
This fixes that and gets rid of another long-standing issue that could
arise when attempting to create more than one process.
This makes the naming more closely match its meaning. It's just a
preferred core, not a required default core. This also makes the usages
of this term consistent across the thread and process implementations.
In all cases that these functions are needed, the VMManager can just be
retrieved and used instead of providing the same functions in Process'
interface.
This also makes it a little nicer dependency-wise, since it gets rid of
cases where the VMManager interface was being used, and then switched
over to using the interface for a Process instance. Instead, it makes
all accesses uniform and uses the VMManager instance for all necessary
tasks.
All the basic memory mapping functions did was forward to the Process'
VMManager instance anyways.
Starts the process ID counter off at 81, which is what the kernel itself
checks against internally when creating processes. It's actually
supposed to panic if the PID is less than 81 for a userland process.
Amends the MemoryState enum to use the same values like the actual
kernel does. Also provides the necessary operators to operate on them.
This will be necessary in the future for implementing
svcSetMemoryAttribute, as memory block state is checked before applying
the attribute.
Process instances can be waited upon for state changes. This is also
utilized by svcResetSignal, which will be modified in an upcoming
change. This simply puts all of the WaitObject related machinery in
place.
<random> isn't necesary directly within the header and can be placed in
the cpp file where its needed. Avoids propagating random generation
utilities via a header file.
In the kernel, there isn't a singular handle table that everything gets
tossed into or used, rather, each process gets its own handle table that
it uses. This currently isn't an issue for us, since we only execute one
process at the moment, but we may as well get this out of the way so
it's not a headache later on.
A fairly basic service function, which only appears to currently support
retrieving the process state. This also alters the ProcessStatus enum to
contain all of the values that a kernel process seems to be able of
reporting with regards to state.
These only exist to ferry data into a Process instance and end up going
out of scope quite early. Because of this, we can just make it a plain
struct for holding things and just std::move it into the relevant
function. There's no need to make this inherit from the kernel's Object
type.
This will be necessary for the implementation of svcGetThreadContext(),
as the kernel checks whether or not the process that owns the thread
that has it context being retrieved is a 64-bit or 32-bit process.
If the process is 32-bit, then the upper 15 general-purpose registers
and upper 16 vector registers are cleared to zero (as AArch32 only has
15 GPRs and 16 128-bit vector registers. not 31 general-purpose
registers and 32 128-bit vector registers like AArch64).
Makes the public interface consistent in terms of how accesses are done
on a process object. It also makes it slightly nicer to reason about the
logic of the process class, as we don't want to expose everything to
external code.
Rather than hard-code the address range to be 36-bit, we can derive the
parameters from supplied NPDM metadata if the supplied exectuable
supports it. This is the bare minimum necessary for this to be possible.
The following commits will rework the memory code further to adjust to
this.
As means to pave the way for getting rid of global state within core,
This eliminates kernel global state by removing all globals. Instead
this introduces a KernelCore class which acts as a kernel instance. This
instance lives in the System class, which keeps its lifetime contained
to the lifetime of the System class.
This also forces the kernel types to actually interact with the main
kernel instance itself instead of having transient kernel state placed
all over several translation units, keeping everything together. It also
has a nice consequence of making dependencies much more explicit.
This also makes our initialization a tad bit more correct. Previously we
were creating a kernel process before the actual kernel was initialized,
which doesn't really make much sense.
The KernelCore class itself follows the PImpl idiom, which allows
keeping all the implementation details sealed away from everything else,
which forces the use of the exposed API and allows us to avoid any
unnecessary inclusions within the main kernel header.
Using member variables for referencing the segments array increases the
size of the class in memory for little benefit. The same behavior can be
achieved through the use of accessors that just return the relevant
segment.
General moving to keep kernel object types separate from the direct
kernel code. Also essentially a preliminary cleanup before eliminating
global kernel state in the kernel code.
This replaces the hardcoded VRAM/DSP mappings with ones made based on
the ExHeader ARM11 Kernel caps list. While this has no visible effect
for most applications (since they use a standard set of mappings) it
does improve support for system modules and n3DS exclusives.
Each thread gets a 0x200-byte area from the 0x1000-sized page, when all 8 thread slots in a single page are used up, the kernel allocates a new page to hold another 8 entries.
This is consistent with what the real kernel does.
