GDB monitor re-uses internal parts of the sandbox library. It thereby
relies on the internal detail of how local headers are included (using
"" instead of the now usual practice <>). A seemingly unrelated change
"init/sandbox: avoid repetitive state reports" eventually broke the
build of the GDB monitor.
This patch makes the GDB monitor less reliant on the way of how the
sandbox includes headers internally.
It also fixes a few warnings caused by the double definition of
__GENODE__ (adding an missing include guard and making the #define
conditional).

This commit modified bash's builtin mapping of character sequences to
readline-functionality to detect the sequence of the delete symbol as
generated by the terminal.

Note, OpenSSL now comes as one combined depot archive *openssl* that
replaces the former *libssl* and *libcrypto* archives. The libraries are
still separate binaries for compatibility with legacy software.
Issue #3773
The contrib code is updated from 2.4.1 to version 5.2.0 and the used
device-model is changed to QEMU xHCI. Due to this change older guests
OSes, namely Windows 7, that relied on the NEC xHCI device-model will
not work anymore.
The 'Qemu::Controller' interface was extended by an 'info' method, which
returns the vendor and product ID. This allows for removing the
hard-coded values in the VirtualBox glue code.
Issue #4018.
The former implemention assumed that the guest physical memory is
mapped continously. This, however, is not true. Writing larger
files to an USB stick with a Windows 10 guest would therefore lead
to data corruption.
The current implementation uses a bounce buffer to copy the data
to and from the guest physical memory and leaves dealing with the
memory mappings entirely up to the VMM.
Fixes#4017.
This commit restores the diag feature for selecting diagnostic output of
services provided by core. This feature became unavailable with commit
"base: remove dependency from deprecated APIs", which hard-wired the
diag flag for core services to false.
To control this feature, three possible policies can be expressed in a
routing target of init's configuration:
* Forcing silence by specifying 'diag="no"'
* Enabling diagnostics by specifying 'diag="yes"'
* Forwarding the preference of the client by omitting the 'diag'
attribute

By default, bash brings its own version of 'getenv', named exactly like
the libc function. This becomes a problem in fork/execve scenarios if
the dynamic linker resolves 'getenv' to the bash binary instead of the
libc.
This patch fixes the generate step of the genodians.org scenario.
Issue #3882
Introduce the managing_system privilege for components like the
platform_driver to allow it to call system management functionality
that is reserved by kernel or special firmware, e.g., ARM Trusted Firmware.
The former RAM resource configuration attribute `constrain_phys`,
which enabled to constrain the region of physical RAM to be used,
gets replaced by the new, broader managing_system configuration
attribute of a `start` node. It gets enforced by the sandbox library.

The patches disable VBOX_IGNORE_FLUSH and a sanity check in the VMDK
backend. This enables passing an explicit flush request by the guest
down to the VFS.
Fixes#3743.
Until now, Genode's framebuffer session interface was based on the
RGB565 pixel format. This patch changes the pixel format to 32-bit
XRGB where the X part is ignored. It adapts all graphical applications
and device drivers accordingly.
The patch also adjusts the users of the drivers_interactive packages,
assigning 64 MiB RAM and 1500 caps to the drivers subsystem, which is
sufficient for covering high resolutions at 32 bits per pixel and to
accommodate multi-component USB HID input stacks.
Fixes#3784
- Since Genode::strncpy is not 100% compatible with the POSIX
strncpy function, better use a distinct name.
- Remove bogus return value from the function, easing the potential
enforcement of mandatory return-value checks later.
Fixes#3752
This patch is a workaround for the missing implementation of
'Pd_session::transfer_quota' interface by the GDB monitor's PD service.
The missing implementation becomes problematic with the changes of #3750
that enabled the cap-quota accounting for core's CPU service.
In regular scenarios without the GDB monitor, the client of
'Cpu_session::create_thread' deals with Out_of_caps or Out_of_ram by
upgrading the CPU session's cap and RAM quotas. This, in turn, results
in a sequence of 'transfer_quota' operations at the parent.
Since GDB monitor implements a custom PD service, these 'transfer_quota'
calls try to transfer quota between sessions provided by core and those
provided by the GDB monitor. This does of course not work. To fix this
issue, the GDB monitor needs a major overhaul. This patch side-steps
the problem by handing Out_of_caps and Out_of_ram from the debuging
target.
