This change unfortunately cannot be atomically made without a single
commit changing everything.
Most of the important changes are in LibIPC/Connection.cpp,
LibIPC/ServerConnection.cpp and LibCore/LocalServer.cpp.
The notable changes are:
- IPCCompiler now generates the decode and decode_message functions such
that they take a Core::Stream::LocalSocket instead of the socket fd.
- IPC::Decoder now uses the receive_fd method of LocalSocket instead of
doing system calls directly on the fd.
- IPC::ConnectionBase and related classes now use the Stream API
functions.
- IPC::ServerConnection no longer constructs the socket itself; instead,
a convenience macro, IPC_CLIENT_CONNECTION, is used in place of
C_OBJECT and will generate a static try_create factory function for
the ServerConnection subclass. The subclass is now responsible for
passing the socket constructed in this function to its
ServerConnection base; the socket is passed as the first argument to
the constructor (as a NonnullOwnPtr<Core::Stream::LocalServer>) before
any other arguments.
- The functionality regarding taking over sockets from SystemServer has
been moved to LibIPC/SystemServerTakeover.cpp. The Core::LocalSocket
implementation of this functionality hasn't been deleted due to my
intention of removing this class in the near future and to reduce
noise on this (already quite noisy) PR.
This is an encapsulation of the common work done by all of our
single-client IPC servers on startup:
1. Create a Core::LocalSocket, taking over an accepted fd.
2. Create an application-specific ClientConnection object,
wrapping the socket.
It's not a huge change in terms of lines saved, but I do feel that it
improves expressiveness. :^)
Derivatives of Core::Object should be constructed through
ClassName::construct(), to avoid handling ref-counted objects with
refcount zero. Fixing the visibility means that misuses like this are
more difficult.
This enables support for automatically generating client methods.
With this added the user gets code completion support for all
IPC methods which are available on a connection object.
The WebSocket service isolates communication with a WebSocket to its
own isolated process. Similar to other isolating services, it has its
own user and group.
