The kernel uses the handle table of the current process to retrieve the
process that should be used to retrieve certain information. To someone
not familiar with the kernel, this might raise the question of "Ok,
sounds nice, but doesn't this make it impossible to retrieve information
about the current process?".
No, it doesn't, because HandleTable instances in the kernel have the
notion of a "pseudo-handle", where certain values allow the kernel to
lookup objects outside of a given handle table. Currently, there's only
a pseudo-handle for the current process (0xFFFF8001) and a pseudo-handle
for the current thread (0xFFFF8000), so to retrieve the current process,
one would just pass 0xFFFF8001 into svcGetInfo.
The lookup itself in the handle table would be something like:
template <typename T>
T* Lookup(Handle handle) {
if (handle == PSEUDO_HANDLE_CURRENT_PROCESS) {
return CurrentProcess();
}
if (handle == PSUEDO_HANDLE_CURRENT_THREAD) {
return CurrentThread();
}
return static_cast<T*>(&objects[handle]);
}
which, as is shown, allows accessing the current process or current
thread, even if those two objects aren't actually within the HandleTable
instance.
Our implementation of svcGetInfo was slightly incorrect in that we
weren't doing proper error checking everywhere. Instead, reorganize it
to be similar to how the kernel seems to do it.
More hardware accurate. On the actual system, there is a differentiation between the signaler and signalee, they form a client/server relationship much like ServerPort and ClientPort.
The opposite of the getter functions, this function sets the limit value
for a particular ResourceLimit resource category, with the restriction
that the new limit value must be equal to or greater than the current
resource value. If this is violated, then ERR_INVALID_STATE is returned.
e.g.
Assume:
current[Events] = 10;
limit[Events] = 20;
a call to this service function lowering the limit value to 10 would be
fine, however, attempting to lower it to 9 in this case would cause an
invalid state error.
This kernel service function is essentially the exact same as
svcGetResourceLimitLimitValue(), with the only difference being that it
retrieves the current value for a given resource category using the
provided resource limit handle, rather than retrieving the limiting
value of that resource limit instance.
Given these are exactly the same and only differ on returned values, we
can extract the existing code for svcGetResourceLimitLimitValue() to
handle both values.
This kernel service function retrieves the maximum allowable value for
a provided resource category for a given resource limit instance. Given
we already have the functionality added to the resource limit instance
itself, it's sufficient to just hook it up.
The error scenarios for this are:
1. If an invalid resource category type is provided, then ERR_INVALID_ENUM is returned.
2. If an invalid handle is provided, then ERR_INVALID_HANDLE is returned (bad thing goes in, bad thing goes out, as one would expect).
If neither of the above error cases occur, then the out parameter is
provided with the maximum limit value for the given category and success
is returned.
This function simply creates a ResourceLimit instance and attempts to
create a handle for it within the current process' handle table. If the
kernal fails to either create the ResourceLimit instance or create a
handle for the ResourceLimit instance, it returns a failure code
(OUT_OF_RESOURCE, and HANDLE_TABLE_FULL respectively). Finally, it exits
by providing the output parameter with the handle value for the
ResourceLimit instance and returning that it was successful.
Note: We do not return OUT_OF_RESOURCE because, if yuzu runs out of
available memory, then new will currently throw. We *could* allocate the
kernel instance with std::nothrow, however this would be inconsistent
with how all other kernel objects are currently allocated.
<random> isn't necesary directly within the header and can be placed in
the cpp file where its needed. Avoids propagating random generation
utilities via a header file.
Cleans out the citra/3DS-specific implementation details that don't
apply to the Switch. Sets the stage for implementing ResourceLimit
instances properly.
While we're at it, remove the erroneous checks within CreateThread() and
SetThreadPriority(). While these are indeed checked in some capacity,
they are not checked via a ResourceLimit instance.
In the process of moving out Citra-specifics, this also replaces the
system ResourceLimit instance's values with ones from the Switch.
Both member functions assume the passed in target process will not be
null. Instead of making this assumption implicit, we can change the
functions to be references and enforce this at the type-system level.
Makes the interface nicer to use in terms of 64-bit code, as it makes it
less likely for one to get truncation warnings (and also makes sense in
the context of the rest of the interface where 64-bit types are used for
sizes and offsets
Similar to PR 1706, which cleans up the error codes for the filesystem
code, but done for the kernel error codes. This removes the ErrCodes
namespace and specifies the errors directly. This also fixes up any
straggling lines of code that weren't using the named error codes where
applicable.
* svcBreak now dumps information from the debug buffer passed
info1 and info2 seem to somtimes hold an address to a buffer, this is usually 4 bytes or the size of the int and contains an error code. There's other circumstances where it can be something different so we hexdump these to examine them at a later date.

Now that we've gotten the innaccurate error codes out of the way, we can
finally toss away a bunch of these, trimming down the error codes to
ones that are actually used and knocking out two TODO comments.
All priority checks are supposed to occur before checking the validity
of the thread handle, we're also not supposed to return
ERR_NOT_AUTHORIZED here.
In the kernel, there isn't a singular handle table that everything gets
tossed into or used, rather, each process gets its own handle table that
it uses. This currently isn't an issue for us, since we only execute one
process at the moment, but we may as well get this out of the way so
it's not a headache later on.
This should be comparing against the queried process' vma_map, not the
current process'. The only reason this hasn't become an issue yet is we
currently only handle one process being active at any time.
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.
This should help diagnose crashes easier and prevent many users thinking that a game is still running when in fact it's just an audio thread still running(this is typically not killed when svcBreak is hit since the game expects us to do this)
A fairly basic service function, which only appears to currently support
retrieving the process state. This also alters the ProcessStatus enum to
contain all of the values that a kernel process seems to be able of
reporting with regards to state.
These only exist to ferry data into a Process instance and end up going
out of scope quite early. Because of this, we can just make it a plain
struct for holding things and just std::move it into the relevant
function. There's no need to make this inherit from the kernel's Object
type.
Regular value initialization is adequate here for zeroing out data. It
also has the benefit of not invoking undefined behavior if a non-trivial
type is ever added to the struct for whatever reason.
This adds the missing address range checking that the service functions
do before attempting to map or unmap memory. Given that both service
functions perform the same set of checks in the same order, we can wrap
these into a function and just call it from both functions, which
deduplicates a little bit of code.
There's no real need to use a shared pointer in these cases, and only
makes object management more fragile in terms of how easy it would be to
introduce cycles. Instead, just do the simple thing of using a regular
pointer. Much of this is just a hold-over from citra anyways.
It also doesn't make sense from a behavioral point of view for a
process' thread to prolong the lifetime of the process itself (the
process is supposed to own the thread, not the other way around).
When loading NROs, svcBreak is called to signal to the debugger that a new "module" is loaded. As no debugger is technically attached we shouldn't be killing the programs execution.
This was the result of a typo accidentally introduced in
e51d715700. This restores the previous
correct behavior.
The behavior with the reference was incorrect and would cause some games
to fail to boot.
Conceptually, it doesn't make sense for a thread to be able to persist
the lifetime of a scheduler. A scheduler should be taking care of the
threads; the threads should not be taking care of the scheduler.
If the threads outlive the scheduler (or we simply don't actually
terminate/shutdown the threads), then it should be considered a bug
that we need to fix.
Attributing this to balika011, as they opened #1317 to attempt to fix
this in a similar way, but my refactoring of the kernel code caused
quite a few conflicts.
Many of the member variables of the thread class aren't even used
outside of the class itself, so there's no need to make those variables
public. This change follows in the steps of the previous changes that
made other kernel types' members private.
The main motivation behind this is that the Thread class will likely
change in the future as emulation becomes more accurate, and letting
random bits of the emulator access data members of the Thread class
directly makes it a pain to shuffle around and/or modify internals.
Having all data members public like this also makes it difficult to
reason about certain bits of behavior without first verifying what parts
of the core actually use them.
Everything being public also generally follows the tendency for changes
to be introduced in completely different translation units that would
otherwise be better introduced as an addition to the Thread class'
public interface.
Now that we have all of the rearranging and proper structure sizes in
place, it's fairly trivial to implement svcGetThreadContext(). In the
64-bit case we can more or less just write out the context as is, minus
some minor value sanitizing. In the 32-bit case we'll need to clear out
the registers that wouldn't normally be accessible from a 32-bit
AArch32 exectuable (or process).
This will be necessary for the implementation of svcGetThreadContext(),
as the kernel checks whether or not the process that owns the thread
that has it context being retrieved is a 64-bit or 32-bit process.
If the process is 32-bit, then the upper 15 general-purpose registers
and upper 16 vector registers are cleared to zero (as AArch32 only has
15 GPRs and 16 128-bit vector registers. not 31 general-purpose
registers and 32 128-bit vector registers like AArch64).
Makes the public interface consistent in terms of how accesses are done
on a process object. It also makes it slightly nicer to reason about the
logic of the process class, as we don't want to expose everything to
external code.
boost::static_pointer_cast for boost::intrusive_ptr (what SharedPtr is),
takes its parameter by const reference. Given that, it means that this
std::move doesn't actually do anything other than obscure what the
function's actual behavior is, so we can remove this. To clarify, this
would only do something if the parameter was either taking its argument
by value, by non-const ref, or by rvalue-reference.
The locations of these can actually vary depending on the address space
layout, so we shouldn't be using these when determining where to map
memory or be using them as offsets for calculations. This keeps all the
memory ranges flexible and malleable based off of the virtual memory
manager instance state.
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.
The owning process of a thread is required to exist before the thread,
so we can enforce this API-wise by using a reference. We can also avoid
the reliance on the system instance by using that parameter to access
the page table that needs to be set.
This can just be a regular function, getting rid of the need to also
explicitly undef the define at the end of the file. Given FuncReturn()
was already converted into a function, it's #undef can also be removed.
This modifies the CPU interface to more accurately match an
AArch64-supporting CPU as opposed to an ARM11 one. Two of the methods
don't even make sense to keep around for this interface, as Adv Simd is
used, rather than the VFP in the primary execution state. This is
essentially a modernization change that should have occurred from the
get-go.
The kernel does the equivalent of the following check before proceeding:
if (address + 0x8000000000 < 0x7FFFE00000) {
return ERR_INVALID_MEMORY_STATE;
}
which is essentially what our IsKernelVirtualAddress() function does. So
we should also be checking for this.
The kernel also checks if the given input addresses are 4-byte aligned,
however our Mutex::TryAcquire() and Mutex::Release() functions already
handle this, so we don't need to add code for this case.
The kernel caps the size limit of shared memory to 8589930496 bytes (or
(1GB - 512 bytes) * 8), so approximately 8GB, where every GB has a 512
byte sector taken off of it.
It also ensures the shared memory is created with either read or
read/write permissions for both permission types passed in, allowing the
remote permissions to also be set as "don't care".
Part of the checking done by the kernel is to check if the given
address and size are 4KB aligned, as well as checking if the size isn't
zero. It also only allows mapping shared memory as readable or
read/write, but nothing else, and so we shouldn't allow mapping as
anything else either.
Previously, these were sitting outside of the Kernel namespace, which
doesn't really make sense, given they're related to the Thread class
which is within the Kernel namespace.
While unlikely, it does avoid constructing a std::string and
unnecessarily calling into the memory code if a game or executable
decides to be really silly about their logging.
