struct should be used when the data type is very simple or otherwise has
no invariants associated with it. Given these are used to form a
hierarchy, class should be used instead.
General moving to keep kernel object types separate from the direct
kernel code. Also essentially a preliminary cleanup before eliminating
global kernel state in the kernel code.
The old "Interface" class had a few problems such as using free
functions (Which didn't allow you to write the service handler as if it
were a regular class.) which weren't very extensible. (Only received one
parameter with a pointer to the Interface object.)
The new ServiceFramework aims to solve these problems by working with
member functions and passing a generic context struct as parameter. This
struct can be extended in the future without having to update all
existing service implementations.
Sessions and Ports are now detached from each other.
HLE services are handled by means of a SessionRequestHandler class, Interface now inherits from this class.
The File and Directory classes are no longer kernel objects, but SessionRequestHandlers instead, bound to a ServerSession when requested.
File::OpenLinkFile now creates a new session pair and binds the File instance to it.
All handles obtained via srv::GetServiceHandle or svcConnectToPort are references to ClientSessions.
Service modules will wait on the counterpart of those ClientSessions (Called ServerSessions) using svcReplyAndReceive or svcWaitSynchronization[1|N], and will be awoken when a SyncRequest is performed.
HLE Interfaces are now ClientPorts which override the HandleSyncRequest virtual member function to perform command handling immediately.
This coincidentally fixes an issue about the PTM service failing to create its SharedExtSaveData archive due to the FS service not being initialized by the time the creating code runs.
Ideally I'd like to move each process to its own folder, and have a single file per process that registers the service classes, which would be in their own files inside that folder. Then each service class would just call functions from the process to complete the commands.
This handle manager more closely mirrors the behaviour of the CTR-OS
one. In addition object ref-counts and support for DuplicateHandle have
been added.
Note that support for DuplicateHandle is still experimental, since parts
of the kernel still use Handles internally, which will likely cause
troubles if two different handles to the same object are used to e.g.
wait on a synchronization primitive.
This is a first step at fixing the conceptual insanity that is our
handling of service and IPC calls. For now, interfaces still directly
derived from Session because we don't have the infrastructure to do it
properly. (That is, Processes and scheduling them.)
