Use mimalloc for Ladybird-owned allocations without overriding malloc().
Route kmalloc(), kcalloc(), krealloc(), and kfree() through mimalloc,
and put the embedded Rust crates on the same allocator via a shared
shim in AK/kmalloc.cpp.
This also lets us drop kfree_sized(), since it no longer used its size
argument. StringData, Utf16StringData, JS object storage, Rust error
strings, and the CoreAudio playback helpers can all free their AK-backed
storage with plain kfree().
Sanitizer builds still use the system allocator. LeakSanitizer does not
reliably trace references stored in mimalloc-managed AK containers, so
static caches and other long-lived roots can look leaked. Pass the old
size into the Rust realloc shim so aligned fallback reallocations can
move posix_memalign-backed blocks safely.
Static builds still need a little linker help. macOS app binaries need
the Rust allocator entry points forced in from liblagom-ak.a, while
static ELF links can pull in identical allocator shim definitions from
multiple Rust staticlibs. Keep the Apple -u flags and allow those
duplicate shim symbols for LibJS and LibRegex links on Linux and BSD.
While swap() is available in the global namespace in normal conditions,
!USING_AK_GLOBALLY will make this name unavailable in the global
namespace, making these calls fail to compile.
This patch adds the `USING_AK_GLOBALLY` macro which is enabled by
default, but can be overridden by build flags.
This is a step towards integrating Jakt and AK types.
This is particularly useful in the Kernel, where the physical pages of
a VMObject are stored as a FixedArray but often passed around as a Span
from which a new FixedArray should be cloned.
FixedArray always *almost* had the following allocation guarantees:
There is (possibly) one allocation in the constructor and one (or more)
deallocation(s) in the destructor. No other operation allocates or
deallocates. With this removal of the public clear() method, which
nobody except the test used anyways, those guarantees are now completely
true and furthermore fixated with an explanatory comment.
FixedArray now doesn't expose any infallible constructors anymore.
Rather, it exposes fallible methods. Therefore, it can be used for
OOM-safe code.
This commit also converts the rest of the system to use the new API.
However, as an example, VMObject can't take advantage of this yet,
as we would have to endow VMObject with a fallible static
construction method, which would require a very fundamental change
to VMObject's whole inheritance hierarchy.
Let's bring this class back, but without the confusing resize() API.
A FixedArray<T> is simply a fixed-size array of T.
The size is provided at run-time, unlike Array<T> where the size is
provided at compile-time.
As suggested by Joshua, this commit adds the 2-clause BSD license as a
comment block to the top of every source file.
For the first pass, I've just added myself for simplicity. I encourage
everyone to add themselves as copyright holders of any file they've
added or modified in some significant way. If I've added myself in
error somewhere, feel free to replace it with the appropriate copyright
holder instead.
Going forward, all new source files should include a license header.
