[−][src]Function sunrise_kernel::syscalls::create_process

pub fn create_process(
    procinfo: UserSpacePtr<ProcInfo>, 
    caps: UserSpacePtr<[u8]>
) -> Result<usize, UserspaceError>

Creates a new process. This will create an empty address space without any thread yet. The size of this address space is controlled through the ProcInfoAddrSpace found in procinfo.

It will create an empty memory region at code_addr spanning code_num_pages pages. This region will initially not have any user permissions - the user is expected to call set_process_memory_permissions.

The code region needs to fall within a region called the code allowed region, which depends on the address space:

For 32-bit address space: 0x00200000-0x003FFFFFFF

For 36-bit address space: 0x08000000-0x007FFFFFFF

For 39-bit address space: 0x08000000-0x7FFFFFFFFF
