05:55 To the Source code!
07:16 Kernel entry. Disassembling my kernel binary
12:04 Replacing the program counter
12:35 Return to user.
13:28 Signal handler is finished. How to resume the main code?
14:14 How the stack works when enter the kernel
16:26 We need to keep main code's original registers!
16:49 Kernel stack has to be empty. Overflow. Nested signals

The example code has a bug. signal_arrived needs to be declared as volatile. Else the optimizer can allocate a register for signal_arrive in main(), and the while loop won't notice that the signal_arrived in memory has changed. In fact, gcc with -O3 optimizes out the whole loop.

Reentrant means that it makes no assumptions about state or the order it is called so the code can be called multiple times, sonetimes before the first call was ecen finished.

@tripplefives1402
@tripplefives1402 2 месяца назад
@@dexterman6361 Yes the stack would be different each time, but the heap and everything else would be the same. A signal can happen at any time, and when it happens your program is stopped at wherever it is and then execution jumps immediately to the function you told it to invoke. So if it is already invoking your function for that signal and the same signal or another signal also gets invoked execution will immediately jump to that function again. So no global variables or anything like that, and you must check to make sure that if there is some global state that you test it to make sure it wasn't already changed prior and you can't assume that you are starting fresh each time. In other words don't double allocate or double free. As far as developing operating systems you cant assume that your interrupt handler wont get called multiple times at the same time because if you blindly turn off interrupts then your code will miss input and the hardware will not keep a backlog for you.

The internet certainly does not have enough low level programming information available, so things like that are always appreciated. I never worked on ARM but many other risc micro controllers. Also implementing preemptive / cooperative multitasking based on interrupts on x86 is somewhat simpler. This can even be done in the classic real mode. Since x86 stores the interrupt return address on the normal stack, in order to do a context switch you really just need to exchange the stack pointer / stack frame. Each "process" would have it's own stack area. So a process could invoke a software interrupt (cooperative) or a hardware interrupt like a timer (preemptive) could interrupt the execution of a process and the interrupt handler takes over. Besides the automaically stored return address, the handler would save the registers in the user stack frame and then just exchange the stack to the stack of a different process. As a result when the interrupt handler does it's iret, it returns to where this process has left off the last time. My dad actually developed quite complex machine control software back in the 80s and 90s and they used a DOS powered machine that ran over 2000 "tasks". Many task where really small, did just one or two checks and then yield again. They circled through all tasks hundreds of times per second. The actual pascal library mtask is really simple, just around 515 lines of code with many comments (with the comments stripped out it's just around 320 and with a bit different syntax style just 230 lines :)). Quite an impressive library from an ancient time. Of course it does not really apply to any modern system except embedded and microcontroller development where you don't really have a separate kernel. Though the fundamental concepts are still the same.

I'm gonna rewatch it again, making sure I've looked at every detail in your illustrations. Have you considered looking into the more general idea? After all, Linux is conceptually UNIX, and UNIX is all about portability, thus signals is just a portable way of implementing interrupts-driven compute. (Then again Windows has it differently with its SEH.) The general idea of interrupts is fascinating in their own right, like Dijkstra famously said: "It was a great invention, but also a Box of Pandora. Because the exact moments of the interrupts were unpredictable and outside our control, the interrupt mechanism turned the computer into a nondeterministic machine with a nonreproducible behavior, and could we control such a beast?" If you have, and in the chance you have time on your hands, I'd LOVE to see your amazingly enlightening approach applied to visualization of more than just signals :) I know, it's a lot to ask, but one can hope, haha.

@kimylamp
@kimylamp Месяц назад
This is a very good question! Indeed, such a problem exists and hardware is well-aware about it. When a systemcall (svc arm instruction) or an interrupt occurrs, the CPU hardware immediately disables all the interrupts. Since that moment it is up to the kernel code when to enable interrupts back. So, the kernel is safe while saving registers and program counter - another interrupt will never occur until the kernel explicitly enables interrupts back.

I'm very curious about this msr and mrs instructions that are skipped by the branch. @ 8:50 I looked it up, and Move System to Register, and Move Register to System, seem like they would be useful as part of the interrupt process. I wonder if there is special kernel code that can conditionally call into this interupt offset to skip the branch instruction?
@illiterate467
@illiterate467 12 дней назад
I'm completely guessing here, but it could be the case that a higher signal level causes that offset to be invoked. Sort of like the difference between "kill" and "kill -9". In Bash scripting, a basic "kill" will terminate a running script unless the script uses a trap to catch the signal. If the signal is trapped, the script can then perform some conditonal action based on the signal, such as, for example, when Ctrl-C is pressed to exit a running script so the script then performs some cleanup action and cleanly exits. However, calling "kill -9" always "uncleanly" terminates the process, even if the script contains a signal trap. Maybe that mrs/msr are there for that case? I.e. when you don't want the process to be "brought back" after the interrupt. This is purely speculation though.

4:48 Hey, this example is really bad. Your signal handler does not follow the correct prototype of void (*handler)(int). Also, the signal handler is required to be reentrant or async signal-safe. Your function is not because it uses global state int signal_arrived instead of some volatile sig_atomic_t or other lock-free atomic global. In this case, you should probably use atomic_flag because it is guaranteed to be lock-free and your example doesn't care about what the value of the signal is. Furthermore, it calls printf() which is also not reentrant. Though, on a posix system you could replace it with a call to write()

Although very good quality, this kernel trip was a bit too much for me. It feels that i should try something less complicated first.

1:00 while not particularly relevant to the discussion (it's just an example), one should be careful with infinite loops... int main(){ while(true){}; return 0; } C++ x86-64 clang (trunk) -O3 main: # @main this seems to be a bug with LLVM backend. now, if you use gcc, you might end up with the process hogging as much cpu as it can. so you really should sleep there.
