The whole concept of Jails was far more complicated than I actually want
it to be, so let's reduce the complexity of how it works from now on.
Please note that we always leaked the attach count of a Jail object in
the fork syscall if it failed midway.
Instead, we should have attach to the jail just before registering the
new Process, so we don't need to worry about unsuccessful Process
creation.
The reduction of complexity in regard to jails means that instead of
relying on jails to provide PID isolation, we could simplify the whole
idea of them to be a simple SetOnce, and let the ProcessList (now called
ScopedProcessList) to be responsible for this type of isolation.
Therefore, we apply the following changes to do so:
- We make the Jail concept no longer a class of its own. Instead, we
simplify the idea of being jailed to a simple ProtectedValues boolean
flag. This means that we no longer check of matching jail pointers
anywhere in the Kernel code.
To set a process as jailed, a new prctl option was added to set a
Kernel SetOnce boolean flag (so it cannot change ever again).
- We provide Process & Thread methods to iterate over process lists.
A process can either iterate on the global process list, or if it's
attached to a scoped process list, then only over that list.
This essentially replaces the need of checking the Jail pointer of a
process when iterating over process lists.
SysFS, ProcFS and DevPtsFS were all sending filetype 0 when traversing
their directories, but it is actually very easy to send proper filetypes
in these filesystems.
This patch binds all RAM backed filesystems to use only one enum for
their internal filetype, to simplify the implementation and allow
sharing of code.
Please note that the Plan9FS case is currently not solved as I am not
familiar with this filesystem and its constructs.
The ProcFS mostly keeps track of the filetype, and a fix was needed for
the /proc root directory - all processes exhibit a directory inside it
which makes it very easy to hardcode the directory filetype for them.
There's also the `self` symlink inode which is now exposed as DT_LNK.
As for SysFS, we could leverage the fact everything inherits from the
SysFSComponent class, so we could have a virtual const method to return
the proper filetype.
Most of the files in SysFS are "regular" files though, so the base class
has a non-pure virtual method.
Lastly, the DevPtsFS simply hardcodes '.' and '..' as directory file
type, and everything else is hardcoded to send the character device file
type, as this filesystem is only exposing character pts device files.
In a bunch of cases, this actually ends up simplifying the code as
to_number will handle something such as:
```
Optional<I> opt;
if constexpr (IsSigned<I>)
opt = view.to_int<I>();
else
opt = view.to_uint<I>();
```
For us.
The main goal here however is to have a single generic number conversion
API between all of the String classes.
This is not needed, because when we are doing this traversing, functions
that are called from this function are using proper and more "atomic"
locking.
The only persistent one of these was Thread::m_process and that never
changes after initialization. Make it const to enforce this and switch
everything over to RefPtr & NonnullRefPtr.
Since the ProcFS doesn't hold many global objects within it, the need
for a fully-structured design of backing components and a registry like
with the SysFS is no longer true.
To acommodate this, let's remove all backing store and components of the
ProcFS, so now it resembles what we had in the early days of ProcFS in
the project - a mostly-static filesystem, with very small amount of
kmalloc allocations needed.
We still use the inode index mechanism to understand the role of each
inode, but this is done in a much "static"ier way than before.
This is done by merging all scattered pieces of derived classes from the
ProcFSInode class into that one class, so we don't use inheritance but
rather simplistic checks to determine the proper code for each ProcFS
inode with its specific characteristics.
Because the ".." entry in a directory is a separate inode, if a
directory is renamed to a new location, then we should update this entry
the point to the new parent directory as well.
