This is a holdover from Citra, where the 3DS has both
WaitSynchronization1 and WaitSynchronizationN. The switch only has one
form of wait synchronizing (literally WaitSynchonization). This allows
us to throw out code that doesn't apply at all to the Switch kernel.
Because of this unnecessary dichotomy within the wait synchronization
utilities, we were also neglecting to properly handle waiting on
multiple objects.
While we're at it, we can also scrub out any lingering references to
WaitSynchronization1/WaitSynchronizationN in comments, and change them
to WaitSynchronization (or remove them if the mention no longer
applies).
This member variable is entirely unused. It was only set but never
actually utilized. Given that, we can remove it to get rid of noise in
the thread interface.
This gives us significantly more control over where in the
initialization process we start execution of the main process.
Previously we were running the main process before the CPU or GPU
threads were initialized (not good). This amends execution to start
after all of our threads are properly set up.
Initially required due to the split codepath with how the initial main
process instance was initialized. We used to initialize the process
like:
Init() {
main_process = Process::Create(...);
kernel.MakeCurrentProcess(main_process.get());
}
Load() {
const auto load_result = loader.Load(*kernel.GetCurrentProcess());
if (load_result != Loader::ResultStatus::Success) {
// Handle error here.
}
...
}
which presented a problem.
Setting a created process as the main process would set the page table
for that process as the main page table. This is fine... until we get to
the part that the page table can have its size changed in the Load()
function via NPDM metadata, which can dictate either a 32-bit, 36-bit,
or 39-bit usable address space.
Now that we have full control over the process' creation in load, we can
simply set the initial process as the main process after all the loading
is done, reflecting the potential page table changes without any
special-casing behavior.
We can also remove the cache flushing within LoadModule(), as execution
wouldn't have even begun yet during all usages of this function, now
that we have the initialization order cleaned up.
Our initialization process is a little wonky than one would expect when
it comes to code flow. We initialize the CPU last, as opposed to
hardware, where the CPU obviously needs to be first, otherwise nothing
else would work, and we have code that adds checks to get around this.
For example, in the page table setting code, we check to see if the
system is turned on before we even notify the CPU instances of a page
table switch. This results in dead code (at the moment), because the
only time a page table switch will occur is when the system is *not*
running, preventing the emulated CPU instances from being notified of a
page table switch in a convenient manner (technically the code path
could be taken, but we don't emulate the process creation svc handlers
yet).
This moves the threads creation into its own member function of the core
manager and restores a little order (and predictability) to our
initialization process.
Previously, in the multi-threaded cases, we'd kick off several threads
before even the main kernel process was created and ready to execute (gross!).
Now the initialization process is like so:
Initialization:
1. Timers
2. CPU
3. Kernel
4. Filesystem stuff (kind of gross, but can be amended trivially)
5. Applet stuff (ditto in terms of being kind of gross)
6. Main process (will be moved into the loading step in a following
change)
7. Telemetry (this should be initialized last in the future).
8. Services (4 and 5 should ideally be alongside this).
9. GDB (gross. Uses namespace scope state. Needs to be refactored into a
class or booted altogether).
10. Renderer
11. GPU (will also have its threads created in a separate step in a
following change).
Which... isn't *ideal* per-se, however getting rid of the wonky
intertwining of CPU state initialization out of this mix gets rid of
most of the footguns when it comes to our initialization process.
We need to ensure dynarmic gets a valid pointer if the page table is
resized (the relevant pointers would be invalidated in this scenario).
In this scenario, the page table can be resized depending on what kind
of address space is specified within the NPDM metadata (if it's
present).
Similarly like svcGetProcessList, this retrieves the list of threads
from the current process. In the kernel itself, a process instance
maintains a list of threads, which are used within this function.
Threads are registered to a process' thread list at thread
initialization, and unregistered from the list upon thread destruction
(if said thread has a non-null owning process).
We assert on the debug event case, as we currently don't implement
kernel debug objects.
Reports the (mostly) correct size through svcGetInfo now for queries to
total used physical memory. This still doesn't correctly handle memory
allocated via svcMapPhysicalMemory, however, we don't currently handle
that case anyways.
This will make operating with the process-related SVC commands much
nicer in the future (the parameter representing the stack size in
svcStartProcess is a 64-bit value).
The use of a shared_ptr is an implementation detail of the VMManager
itself when mapping memory. Because of that, we shouldn't require all
users of the CodeSet to have to allocate the shared_ptr ahead of time.
It's intended that CodeSet simply pass in the required direct data, and
that the memory manager takes care of it from that point on.
This means we just do the shared pointer allocation in a single place,
when loading modules, as opposed to in each loader.
Makes it more evident that one is for actual code and one is for actual
data. Mutable and static are less than ideal terms here, because
read-only data is technically not mutable, but we were mapping it with
that label.
Given this is utilized by the loaders, this allows avoiding inclusion of
the kernel process definitions where avoidable.
This also keeps the loading format for all executable data separate from
the kernel objects.
Makes it an instantiable class like it is in the actual kernel. This
will also allow removing reliance on global accessors in a following
change, now that we can encapsulate a reference to the system instance
in the class.
Now that we have the address arbiter extracted to its own class, we can
fix an innaccuracy with the kernel. Said inaccuracy being that there
isn't only one address arbiter. Each process instance contains its own
AddressArbiter instance in the actual kernel.
This fixes that and gets rid of another long-standing issue that could
arise when attempting to create more than one process.
The kernel allows restricting the total size of the handle table through
the process capability descriptors. Until now, this functionality wasn't
hooked up. With this, the process handle tables become properly restricted.
In the case of metadata-less executables, the handle table will assume
the maximum size is requested, preserving the behavior that existed
before these changes.
This makes the naming more closely match its meaning. It's just a
preferred core, not a required default core. This also makes the usages
of this term consistent across the thread and process implementations.
This function isn't a general purpose function that should be exposed to
everything, given it's specific to initializing the main thread for a
Process instance.
Given that, it's a tad bit more sensible to place this within
process.cpp, which keeps it visible only to the code that actually needs
it.
In all cases that these functions are needed, the VMManager can just be
retrieved and used instead of providing the same functions in Process'
interface.
This also makes it a little nicer dependency-wise, since it gets rid of
cases where the VMManager interface was being used, and then switched
over to using the interface for a Process instance. Instead, it makes
all accesses uniform and uses the VMManager instance for all necessary
tasks.
All the basic memory mapping functions did was forward to the Process'
VMManager instance anyways.
Amends the MemoryState enum to use the same values like the actual
kernel does. Also provides the necessary operators to operate on them.
This will be necessary in the future for implementing
svcSetMemoryAttribute, as memory block state is checked before applying
the attribute.
Process instances can be waited upon for state changes. This is also
utilized by svcResetSignal, which will be modified in an upcoming
change. This simply puts all of the WaitObject related machinery in
place.
<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.
