This will be necessary for making our TLS slot management slightly more
straightforward. This can also be utilized for other purposes in the
future.
We can implement the existing simpler overload in terms of this one
anyways, we just pass the beginning and end of the ASLR region as the
boundaries.
Essentially performs the inverse of svcMapProcessCodeMemory. This unmaps
the aliasing region first, then restores the general traits of the
aliased memory.
What this entails, is:
- Restoring Read/Write permissions to the VMA.
- Restoring its memory state to reflect it as a general heap memory region.
- Clearing the memory attributes on the region.
One behavior that we weren't handling properly in our heap allocation
process was the ability for the heap to be shrunk down in size if a
larger size was previously requested.
This adds the basic behavior to do so and also gets rid of HeapFree, as
it's no longer necessary now that we have allocations and deallocations
going through the same API function.
While we're at it, fully document the behavior that this function
performs.
Makes it more obvious that this function is intending to stand in for
the actual supervisor call itself, and not acting as a general heap
allocation function.
Also the following change will merge the freeing behavior of HeapFree
into this function, so leaving it as HeapAllocate would be misleading.
Another holdover from citra that can be tossed out is the notion of the
heap needing to be allocated in different addresses. On the switch, the
base address of the heap will always be managed by the memory allocator
in the kernel, so this doesn't need to be specified in the function's
interface itself.
The heap on the switch is always allocated with read/write permissions,
so we don't need to add specifying the memory permissions as part of the
heap allocation itself either.
This also corrects the error code returned from within the function.
If the size of the heap is larger than the entire heap region, then the
kernel will report an out of memory condition.
Makes it more evident that one is for actual code and one is for actual
data. Mutable and static are less than ideal terms here, because
read-only data is technically not mutable, but we were mapping it with
that label.
Adds the barebones enumeration constants and functions in place to
handle memory attributes, while also essentially leaving the attribute
itself non-functional.
The kernel returns a memory info instance with the base address set to
the end of the address space, and the size of said block as
0 - address_space_end, it doesn't set both of said members to zero.
Gets the two structures out of an unrelated header and places them with
the rest of the memory management code.
This also corrects the structures. PageInfo appears to only contain a
32-bit flags member, and the extra padding word in MemoryInfo isn't
necessary.
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.
This was only ever public so that code could check whether or not a
handle was valid or not. Instead of exposing the object directly and
allowing external code to potentially mess with the map contents, we
just provide a member function that allows checking whether or not a
handle is valid.
This makes all member variables of the VMManager class private except
for the page table.
Now that the changes clarifying the address spaces has been merged, we
can wrap the checks that the kernel performs when mapping shared memory
(and other forms of memory) into its own helper function and then use
those within MapSharedMemory and UnmapSharedMemory to complete the
sanitizing checks that are supposed to be done.
So, one thing that's puzzled me is why the kernel seemed to *not* use
the direct code address ranges in some cases for some service functions.
For example, in svcMapMemory, the full address space width is compared
against for validity, but for svcMapSharedMemory, it compares against
0xFFE00000, 0xFF8000000, and 0x7FF8000000 as upper bounds, and uses
either 0x200000 or 0x8000000 as the lower-bounds as the beginning of the
compared range. Coincidentally, these exact same values are also used in
svcGetInfo, and also when initializing the user address space, so this
is actually retrieving the ASLR extents, not the extents of the address
space in general.
Previously, these were reporting hardcoded values, but given the regions
can change depending on the requested address spaces, these need to
report the values that the memory manager contains.
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.
