_unmap_dataspace_ggtt requires the cap of Ggtt::Mapping (ring_map, ctx_map)
in order to find the right metadata and to free up the ggtt entries. Also the
pte range is removed already if the metadata was found.

BREAKS CONFIG COMPATIBILITY:
This commit changes the configuration interface of the NIC router in a way that
may break systems that use the component without proper adjustment!
HOW TO ADJUST:
At each occurrence of the '<uplink ...>' tag in a NIC router configuration
replace the tag name 'uplink' with 'nic-client'. The rest of the tag stays the
same.
The term "uplink" for network interfaces in the router that have a NIC session
client as back end was introduced in a time when Uplink sessions didn't yet
exist. Now, they do and, although both an uplink and an Uplink session
normally describe a network session between router and network device driver,
they are based on two different service types (NIC and Uplink). This can easily
cause confusion when integrating the router (the <uplink> is not related to
Uplink sessions) or trying to understand its functioning (an 'Uplink' object
has nothing to do with the Uplink service).
Therefore, this commit introduces the more specific term "NIC client" for an
interface that is based on a NIC session requested by the router. This doesn't
imply any semantic changes at the NIC router. However, the commit also brings a
broader update of the router's README and removes the term "downlink" that was
used only in documentation to refer to interfaces backed by a NIC session
provided by the router. The term was only associated with this meaning because
it is the natural counterpart to an uplink. This isn't appropriate anymore as
the terms for interface types have moved to a more technical level.
The commit adjusts all scenarios in the basic Genode repositories properly.
Fixes#4238
An interface that received a signal for a link-state change accessed its
domain reference without assuming that it could not be attached to a domain
at that moment. This caused the NIC router to crash with an uncaught exception
of type 'Net::Pointer<Net::Domain>::Invalid'. The commit adds a catch
directive for this exception resulting in the handler doing nothing if not
attached to any domain.
Fixes#4222
The test script failed during preparation of the on-target execution for
USB Armory with the following error:
! can't read "tz_vmm_block_irq": no such variable
Presumably, the script wasn't run anymore since the introduction of the
'tz_vmm_block_irq' variable for i.MX53 QSB. As we do not have infrastructure
for automated testing of the USB Armory and there seems to be not much
interest in using Genode on this platform, this commit simply removes the
support from the script.
Filtering boards in a run script by specs isn't the right way anymore (the
specs do not exist anymore). Nowadays, we have to use [have_board] instead.
Ref #4229
For unknown reasons, the former 'wget genode.org' call, that was meant to test
network in the Trustzone guest on imx53_qsb_tz, didn't succeed anymore although
the same call succeeded on my Sculpt VM Linux. However, 'ping 1.1.1.1' still
works, so, the script now uses this as test for networking instead.
Fixes#4229
So far, in order to create an ARP reply, the NIC router merely created a copy
of the corresponding ARP request and modified only those values that differ.
This approach has the disadvantage of re-using bad parameters from a broken
request. The specific use-case that made this visible was an early version of
the Pine board network driver that used to forward ARP requests with a greater
size than required. The ARP replies of the router re-used this size and
confused other network nodes with that. In general, the NIC router should
rely on the data of incoming packets the least possible. Therefore, with this
commit, the router creates a new ARP reply from scratch and uses only those
values required from the corresponding ARP request.
Fixes#4235
The former declaration of the IPv4 packet did not only use the questionable
tool of implementation-defined C++ bitsets but also lacked access to flags
"don't fragment" (DF) and "more fragments" (MF). This commit replaces the
C++ bitsets by using the register framework and introduces accessors for the
missing flags.
Ref #4236
This commit introduces a C-API to the Uplink session, as well as to
serve as a Block service. It can be used by drivers ported from
C-only projects, like the Linux kernel, or BSD kernels for instance.
Fix#4226
Adds try-catch-statement with diagnostic errors in Dhcp_server::free_ip in
order to guard against exceptions from the underlying bit allocator. These
exceptions should never happen given that the router is programmed correctly
and always feeds Dhcp_server::free_ip with sane arguments (which it should).
However, should this not be the case, we can assume that the failed IP freeing
indicates that the IP isn't allocated anyway and it's fine to continue using
the router. Furthermore, IP allocations are a mere client service and not
relevant for the integrity or safety of the router.
Ref #4200
When Interface::handle_config_3 (third step of applying a new configuration to
interfaces) tried to detach the interface from the current IP config because
the old and new IP config differed, it did so using the new domain. The former
steps of the reconfiguration already installed the new domain reference at the
interface. Therefore, also the DHCP server of the new domain was used. This,
however caused uncaught exceptions because detaching from an IP config
includes dissolving all DHCP allocations. This dissolving of DHCP allocations
now operated on a DHCP server (the one of the new domain) that wasn't related
to the allocations and, in the worst case, caused an uncaught exception
because the IPs were out of its range.
That said, this commit ensures that detaching an interface from an IP config
is always done on the domain from which the IP config originated. Normally,
this is the domain the interface is attached to. But in the case of
Interface::handle_config_3, it is another - the former domain the interface
was attached to.
The commit also adapts the nic_router_dhcp_* tests in a way that they
reconfigure the router in a way that would trigger the uncaught exception
without the fix.
Fixes#4200
Adapts Dir_file_system::open_composite_dirs in a way that it returns "success"
when the leaf node of the path is an empty directory but "lookup failed", as
usual, if one of the other directories on the way to the leaf node is empty.
I couldn't find a technical reason why we used to return "lookup failed" when
only the leaf node was empty.
The commit also adds a test for en empty root directory and empty
sub-directories to the fs_query run script.
Fixes#4198
Enable watching files via the inotify interface of the Linux Kernel.
Delivery of watches to components is staggered in order to prevent an
overflow of the ACK queue in cases when a lot of changes are made to the
file system from the Linux side.
Fixes#4070
A reset domain can consist of one or several reset-pins
denoted by name that are assigned to a device.
When the device gets acquired via the Platform RPC API,
the pins are de-asserted, and asserted again when the
device gets released.
A configuration looks like the following:
<device name="mipi_dsi>
<reset-domain name="mipi_dsi_pclk"/>
...
</device>
Fixes#4171
Introduces the notion of a transaction that consists of one or more
messages. Whereby a message has a read or write direction and consists
of one or more bytes.

Report via platform_info the capabilities of the kernel, e.g. ACPI and MSI.
With the commit the try-catch pattern on IRQ session creation by the platform
driver is avoided.
Issue #4016
This patch moves the utility from the app/text_area to os/vfs.h to make
it easier to use by other components. By hosting the 'New_file' as a
friend alongside the 'Directory', we can now pass a 'Directory' as
constructor argument, which is consistent with other utilities such as
'File_content'.
As a further improvement, the new version supports the implicit creation
of the directory hierarchy leading to the new file.
Issue #4032
For fs_file_systems, reads are limited to the size of the packets from the
File_system session. Hence, we cannot read the large files in one go.
This fix is particularly helpful for fonts_fs, as it enables including font
files from a File_system.
