80c4685324 VFS: replace VFS with AVFS 2012-02-13 16:53:21 +00:00
Thomas Veerman
1fc399a5c1 Add permission test for bind and socket
Also, apply forbidden patch to VFS from AVFS (fixes hanging test56 if
it has the permission test).

b4d909d415 Split block/character protocols and libdriver
This patch separates the character and block driver communication
protocols. The old character protocol remains the same, but a new
block protocol is introduced. The libdriver library is replaced by
two new libraries: libchardriver and libblockdriver. Their exposed
API, and drivers that use them, have been updated accordingly.
Together, libbdev and libblockdriver now completely abstract away
the message format used by the block protocol. As the memory driver
is both a character and a block device driver, it now implements its
own message loop.

The most important semantic change made to the block protocol is that
it is no longer possible to return both partial results and an error
for a single transfer. This simplifies the interaction between the
caller and the driver, as the I/O vector no longer needs to be copied
back. Also, drivers are now no longer supposed to decide based on the
layout of the I/O vector when a transfer should be cut short. Put
simply, transfers are now supposed to either succeed completely, or
result in an error.

After this patch, the state of the various pieces is as follows:
- block protocol: stable
- libbdev API: stable for synchronous communication
- libblockdriver API: needs slight revision (the drvlib/partition API
  in particular; the threading API will also change shortly)
- character protocol: needs cleanup
- libchardriver API: needs cleanup accordingly
- driver restarts: largely unsupported until endpoint changes are
  reintroduced

As a side effect, this patch eliminates several bugs, hacks, and gcc
-Wall and -W warnings all over the place. It probably introduces a
few new ones, too.

Update warning: this patch changes the protocol between MFS and disk
drivers, so in order to use old/new images, the MFS from the ramdisk
must be used to mount all file systems.

13ef7f1f38 Prepare VFS to support back calls from PFS. For security reasons and to support
file descriptor passing, PFS does some back calls to VFS. For example, to
verify the validity of a path provided by a process and to tell VFS it must
copy file descriptors from one process to another.

958b25be50 - Introduce support for sticky bit.
- Revise VFS-FS protocol and update VFS/MFS/ISOFS accordingly.
- Clean up MFS by removing old, dead code (backwards compatibility is broken by
  the new VFS-FS protocol, anyway) and rewrite other parts. Also, make sure all
  functions have proper banners and prototypes.
- VFS should always provide a (syntactically) valid path to the FS; no need for
  the FS to do sanity checks when leaving/entering mount points.
- Fix several bugs in MFS:
  - Several path lookup bugs in MFS.
  - A link can be too big for the path buffer.
  - A mountpoint can become inaccessible when the creation of a new inode
    fails, because the inode already exists and is a mountpoint.
- Introduce support for supplemental groups.
- Add test 46 to test supplemental group functionality (and removed obsolete
  suppl. tests from test 2).
- Clean up VFS (not everything is done yet).
- ISOFS now opens device read-only. This makes the -r flag in the mount command
  unnecessary (but will still report to be mounted read-write).
- Introduce PipeFS. PipeFS is a new FS that handles all anonymous and
  named pipes. However, named pipes still reside on the (M)FS, as they are part
  of the file system on disk. To make this work VFS now has a concept of
  'mapped' inodes, which causes read, write, truncate and stat requests to be
  redirected to the mapped FS, and all other requests to the original FS.

8590ac260d Removed dependency of vfs on NR_TASKS macro
- all macros in consts.h that depend on NR_TASKS replaced by a FP_BLOCKED_ON_*

- fp_suspended removed and replaced by fp_blocked_on. Testing whether a process
  is supended is qeual to testing whether fp_blocked_on is FP_BLOCKED_ON_NONE or
  not

- fp_task is valid only if fp_blocked_on == FP_BLOCKED_ON_OTHER

- no need of special values that do not colide with valid and special endpoints
  since they are not used as endpoints anymore

- suspend only takes FP_BLOCKED_ON_* values not endpoints anymore

- suspend(task) replaced by wait_for(task) which sets fp_task so we remember who
  are we waiting for and suspend sets fp_blocked_on to FP_BLOCKED_ON_OTHER to
  signal that we are waiting for some other process

- some functions should take endpoint_t instead of int, fixed

41e9fedf87 Mostly bugfixes of bugs triggered by the test set.
bugfixes:
 SYSTEM:
 . removed
        rc->p_priv->s_flags = 0;
   for the priv struct shared by all user processes in get_priv(). this
   should only be done once. doing a SYS_PRIV_USER in sys_privctl()
   caused the flags of all user processes to be reset, so they were no
   longer PREEMPTIBLE. this happened when RS executed a policy script.
   (this broke test1 in the test set)

 VFS/MFS:
 . chown can change the mode of a file, and chmod arguments are only
   part of the full file mode so the full filemode is slightly magic.
   changed these calls so that the final modes are returned to VFS, so
   that the vnode can be kept up-to-date.
   (this broke test11 in the test set)

 MFS:
 . lookup() checked for sizeof(string) instead of sizeof(user_path),
   truncating long path names
   (caught by test 23)
 . truncate functions neglected to update ctime
   (this broke test16)

 VFS:
 . corner case of an empty filename lookup caused fields of a request
   not to be filled in in the lookup functions, not making it clear
   that the lookup had failed, causing messages to garbage processes,
   causing strange failures.
   (caught by test 30)
 . trust v_size in vnode when doing reads or writes on non-special
   files, truncating i/o where necessary; this is necessary for pipes,
   as MFS can't tell when a pipe has been truncated without it being
   told explicitly each time.
   when the last reader/writer on a pipe closes, tell FS about
   the new size using truncate_vn().
   (this broke test 25, among others)
 . permission check for chdir() had disappeared; added a
   forbidden() call
   (caught by test 23)

new code, shouldn't change anything:
 . introduced RTS_SET, RTS_UNSET, and RTS_ISSET macro's, and their
   LOCK variants. These macros set and clear the p_rts_flags field,
   causing a lot of duplicated logic like

       old_flags = rp->p_rts_flags;            /* save value of the flags */
       rp->p_rts_flags &= ~NO_PRIV;
       if (old_flags != 0 && rp->p_rts_flags == 0) lock_enqueue(rp);

   to change into the simpler

       RTS_LOCK_UNSET(rp, NO_PRIV);

   so the macros take care of calling dequeue() and enqueue() (or lock_*()),
   as the case may be). This makes the code a bit more readable and a
   bit less fragile.
 . removed return code from do_clocktick in CLOCK as it currently
   never replies
 . removed some debug code from VFS
 . fixed grant debug message in device.c
 
preemptive checks, tests, changes:
 . added return code checks of receive() to SYSTEM and CLOCK
 . O_TRUNC should never arrive at MFS (added sanity check and removed
   O_TRUNC code)
 . user_path declared with PATH_MAX+1 to let it be null-terminated
 . checks in MFS to see if strings passed by VFS are null-terminated
 
 IS:
 . static irq name table thrown out

94b936d7c1 . added super-user check for mount
. corrected device match for unmount (otherwise unmount would
  proceed with bogus mount slot, often sending messages to 0 (PM))
. added some sanity checking to fs process number
. made fs_sendrec PRIVATE to request.c
