This shim component can be used in case where env sessions of child
(i.e., child's PD session) must be routed to another child of init.
Without the shim, init would directly need to interact with these
sessions and would thereby make itself dependent of the server's
behavior. RPC calls to a server hosted as a child lead to all kinds of
problems such as livelock situations, and putting the robustness of init
at the whim of its child.
With the shim, init merely needs to bootstrap the shim component by
routing the shim's env sessions to core as usual. The server is only
used for the sessions for the actual application hosted atop the shim.
Issue #3837
Issue #4029
This patch is an interim fix for using HID devices that offer a HID
interface as not the first interface. It also supplements the
interface classes as supplemental information to the USB-devices
report.
Fixes#4035
With this patch, the board/<name>/arch property file can have multiple
lines where each line denotes an instruction-set architecture supported
for the board.
Issue #4019Fixes#4034
Simplify calculation of Timer::_duration, the old implementation caused
the time running backwards sometimes. This makes
'nic_router_dhcp_*' and 'event_filter' run scripts succeed.
issue #4021
This prevents the log terminal from adjusting itself to the whole screen
size before the leitzentrale window layout is applied. This intermediate
size can otherwise exhaust the 8 MiB of RAM quota of the log terminal.
Issue #3970
Do not link base and core libraries into on large relocatable .o file,
which is linked later to core - causing long link times. Create an
independent library archive out of the base and core libraries that can
be linked faster.

This commit improves the performance of the pipe plugin by using local
signal handling and avoiding sending a signal during write when pipe
buffer is full.
Issue #3583
* Add new virtio device model
* Extend test run-script with vfat block test image
* Add vmm depot src recipe
* Use packages in test run-script
Fix#4025
* Introduce different index types for ring counters and descriptor arrays
within the Virtio split queue implementation
* Be more accurate in reporting the queue number supported, and raise it
to 512
* Introduce abstractions for mmio register access, where several values
are stored at the same place, and selector registers exist.
* Turn Virtio_device into a template to define the Virio queue type,
and its numbers per device model (needed for e.g., future block model)
Issue #4025
All pipe-ends were notified at the same time which leads to dead-locks.
This commit mitigates this by having a signal handler for each pipe and
each pipe-end respectively.
Issue #3583
The vfs pipe plugin can now be used as named pipe which anables data
transfer via file handles from one component to another. E.g. if one
would like to send data from component A to stdin of a libc component B,
one can do so by simply writing to that fifo file.
Issue #3583
With this commit libcrypto does not use ARM NEON extension as long as
SPECS includes "neon". arm_v7a does declare "neon" per default while
arm_v8a does.
Issue #3773
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.
