The downloaded archives for building the tool chain are checked for its
signature before using them. In case of a signature failure, the build
is interrupted.
Issue #748
The signature verification tool uses gpg to verify the detached
signature of the given file.
It also tries to obtain the signing key if it is not part of the local
key ring.
Signature verification implies the verification of the integrity and
authenticity of a given file.
Issue #748
Instead of using a fixed command like picocom in the run tool,
it's better to have the flexibility to set the whole command that
connects to the serial device. Therefore, it's possible for instance
to connect to a remote serial device exported via TCP/IP by using tools
like socat.
This patch introduces a new platform 'linux_arm' for building and running
Genode/Linux on an ARM device.
Known limitations:
- libc 'setjmp()'/'longjmp()' doesn't currently save/restore floating
point registers
Fixes#746.
With this patch, 'liquid_framebuffer' can be reconfigured at runtime.
The configuration arguments are now provided as XML attributes, matching
those for 'nit_fb'. Furthermore, two new configuration options are added:
<config ...
resize_handle="off" - show/hide a resize handle widget in the lower
right window corner
decoration="on" - show/hide window decoration
(title bar and borders)

This is a first version of the AHCI driver. It supports SATA HDDs
with UDMA-133 only, up to 6 Gbps and native command queueing.
The more blocks one transfers with one command, the higher is the
chance that the driver produces a fatal handshake error. Nevertheless
the driver is stable with one block per ATA command. Although NCQ is
used the driver doesn't queue multiple commands simultanously.
The driver was tested with a western digital HDD "WDC WD2500BEVS-08VAT1
13.01A13" (250 GB) with hw_arndale (run/ahci) and foc_arndale
(run/ahci, run/l4linux: dd). SSDs were not tested.
Fix#706
The previous version of the PS/2 mouse backend manged mouse motion
events in a strange way, effectively throwing away most information
about the motion vector. Furthermore, the tracking of the mouse-button
states were missing. So drag-and-drop in a guest OS won't work. The new
version fixes those issues. For the transformation of input events to
PS/2 packets, a the Genode::Register facility is used. This greatly
simplifies the code.
This patch replaces the error-prone manual locking with the use of the
'Synced_interface' for the motherboard and the VCPU dispatcher. It also
removes all globally visible locks. Locks are now explicitly passed to
subsystems when needed.
This patch moves the implementation of the 'Arm::memory_region_attr'
function from the generic ARM code to the ARM v6/v7 specific code
to enable the customization of page-table bits depending on the
specific CPU core type. I.e., the ARM1176 apparently does not cope
well with setting the 'Tex::bits(2)' for MMIO mappings.
This patch eliminates calls of 'cmpxchg' prior enabling the MMU. This is
needed because the 'ldrex' and 'strex' instructions do not always work
with MMU and L1 cache disabled, i.e., on Raspberry Pi.
