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
This is a follow-up commit to "Increase default warning level", which
overrides Genode's new default warning level for targets contained in
higher-level repositories. By explicitly whitelisting all those targets,
we can selectively adjust them to the new strictness over time - by
looking out for 'CC_CXX_WARN_STRICT' in the target description files.
Issue #465
This patch removes the component_entry_point library, which used to
proved a hook for the libc to intercept the call of the
'Component::construct' function. The mechansim has several shortcomings
(see the discussion in the associated issue) and was complex. So we
eventually discarded the approach in favor of the explicit handling of
the startup.
A regular Genode component provides a 'Component::construct' function,
which is determined by the dynamic linker via a symbol lookup.
For the time being, the dynamic linker falls back to looking up a 'main'
function if no 'Component::construct' function could be found.
The libc provides an implementation of 'Component::construct', which
sets up the libc's task handling and finally call the function
'Libc::Component::construct' from the context of the appllication task.
This function is expected to be provided by the libc-using application.
Consequently, Genode components that use the libc have to implement the
'Libc::Component::construct' function.
The new 'posix' library provides an implementation of
'Libc::Component::construct' that calls a main function. Hence, POSIX
programs that merely use the POSIX API merely have to add 'posix' to the
'LIBS' declaration in their 'target.mk' file. Their execution starts at
'main'.
Issue #2199
This patch changes the top-level directory layout as a preparatory
step for improving the tools for managing 3rd-party source codes.
The rationale is described in the issue referenced below.
