An x86-64 operating system built from xv6, now largely rewritten: SMP, a copy-on-write root filesystem (SchFS), PCI/USB/virtio drivers, a TTF rasteriser, and a Linux-numbered syscall ABI. No history before this point -- the tree was never under version control. This commit exists so the rename that follows has something to undo to.

// User-memory access API, modeled on Linux's <linux/uaccess.h>.

|
|
// Rules for kernel code touching user pointers:
|
|
//
|
|
// 1. Never dereference a user-supplied address without validating it
|
|
// first. A syscall argument can point anywhere, including at kernel
|
|
// memory or at nothing at all.
|
|
//
|
|
// 2. Never assume a user buffer is physically contiguous. uva2ka() only
|
|
// translates ONE page; the direct-map alias it returns runs into an
|
|
// unrelated physical page at the next 4K boundary. Any multi-byte
|
|
// access through it must stay within a single page.
|
|
//
|
|
// These helpers encapsulate both rules. Because Schunix (like old x86
|
|
// without SMAP) keeps the user page table active in kernel mode, a raw
|
|
// user virtual address is directly dereferenceable once the whole range
|
|
// has been validated — that is what user_ptr() hands back, and why the
|
|
// result is safe across page boundaries where a uva2ka() pointer is not.
