2023-06-17kernel: fix procfs overflow bug, add safeguard to prevent similar onesdzwdz
2023-06-04kernel: rework /proc/ and process IDsdzwdz
I'm yet to write proper docs but the TL;DR is: Mounting /proc/ creates a new pid namespace. You're still visible in the old namespace with your old pid, but your children won't be. You see your own pid as 1. Current pids of children will be preserved, pids will be allocated starting from the highest one of your children.
2023-01-25kernel: move /mem/alloc to /malloc and linker.ld to arch/amd64/dzwdz

2023-01-25style: typedef structs, shorter namespacesdzwdz
I've wanted to do this for a while, and since I've just had a relatively large refactor commit (pcpy), this is as good of a time as any. Typedefing structs was mostly inspired by Plan 9's coding style. It makes some lines of code much shorter at basically no expense. Everything related to userland kept old-style struct definitions, so as not to force that style onto other people. I also considered changing SCREAMING_ENUM_FIELDS to NicerLookingCamelcase, but I didn't, just in case that'd be confusing.

2023-01-24kernel/procfs: prevent reading kernel memorydzwdz
knew it
2023-01-24kernel/procfs: allow reading memory of descendantsdzwdz
I'm suprised how short this patch is. It also feels like I've introducted a vulnerability somewhere with it. Hopefully it's a false feeling.

2023-01-18kernel: add a root argument to process_nextdzwdz

2022-10-08syscall/open: don't check for free handlesdzwdz
doesn't really prevent anything, and makes it harder to test edge cases
2022-10-02syscall/open: add the full suite of READ/WRITE flagsdzwdz
2022-09-20shared: rename ufs_request to better fit its role in userlanddzwdz
The old name could have suggested that it held a response to a request received by fs_wait. The new name is unfortunately very similar to the `struct vfs_request` already used internally in the kernel, but it's better at conveying that it contains a filesystem request yet to be handled. vfs_request - virtual filesystem request (a bad name in hindsight) ufs_request - user filesystem request

2022-08-28kernel/vfs: minor vfs_request / vfs_root_register reworkdzwdz
* changed vfs_root_register's name because the _mount didn't add anything * removed the old pointless vfs_backend_tryaccept calls from drivers * because of that, i could remove the vfs_backend globals * replaced the horrible BACKEND_KERN macro * all vfs_backends are now stored on the heap
2022-08-19syscall/fs_wait: return a handle for each requestdzwdz

2022-08-03kernel: reuse a single allocation for all vfs_requests of a processdzwdz
$ iostress 32 512 0 > /vtty # before 512 calls, 0 bytes. avg 121133 $ iostress 32 512 0 > /vtty # after 512 calls, 0 bytes. avg 103540 103540/121133 = ~85% I think the tiny bit of added complexity is worth it here.

2022-07-08syscall/fs_respond: get the file id from the buf argumentdzwdz
Previously, file ids could only be positive integers, so their range was 31 bits - not enough to represent the entire memory. Now, pointers can be safely used as file ids.
2022-07-07kernel: add the vfsreq_finish_short shorthand functiondzwdz
2022-07-07kernel/vfs: delegate support in _syscall_fs_respond!dzwdz
this is big in terms of speed, it avoids a lot of unnecessary context switches
2022-06-29kernel/vfs: add the OPEN_CREATE flagdzwdz

2022-05-05kernel: each driver registers its own mountsdzwdz
2022-05-05kernel: syscalls now have to explicitly save the return valuedzwdz
thus they can opt out of doing that so the calls which might return immediately but can return later don't have to both regs_savereturn and return to the caller. and because of that, the return values of a lot of VFS things have just got way saner
