This patch changes the 'Allocator' interface to the use of 'Attempt'
return values instead of using exceptions for propagating errors.
To largely uphold compatibility with components using the original
exception-based interface - in particluar use cases where an 'Allocator'
is passed to the 'new' operator - the traditional 'alloc' is still
supported. But it existes merely as a wrapper around the new
'try_alloc'.

The former use of Pthread conditionals did not cover the corner case of
early wakeups just before halting the CPU. These wakeups were simply
lost which resulted in sporadic halts of about 500 ms (the maximum timeout
of all halts in VirtualBox). RTSEMEVENTMULTI preserves early wakeups
and effectively prevents the CPU from halting.
Additionally, we now wakeup the target CPU on VMMR0_DO_GVMM_SCHED_POLL
and, thus, mimic the behavior of the original implementation slightly
better,

Since the top-level node of the output ROM is always generated by the
rom_filter, there is no way to pass-through the content of an input ROM
without wrapping in an addition XML node.

The Allocator_avl back end will display diagnostic messages if the
address to be freed is not at the beginning of a block. This happens
regulary when 'struct page' objects are not freed in allocation order.
Issue #4325.
Introduce a method to access the dataspace capability of the underlying
backing store for a memory allocation. This is necessary for drivers
where the memory is managed manually and the capability needs to be
given to a client.

Explicitly, adapt to current framebuffer/window size after
initialization finished. This ensures the use of the correct framebuffer
dimensions in scenarios without a window manager.
Thanks to Raphael for the patch.
This patch makes the test less dependent on the rate of state updates by
calculating the upgraded quota from the values found in the state report
instead of simply increasing the '_ram_quota' for each incoming report.
This patch replaces the 'Ram_allocator::alloc' RPC function by a
'try_alloc' function, which reflects errors as 'Attempt' return value
instead of an exception.

Issue #3612
The new 'update_list_model_from_xml' function template simplifies the
use of the list model utility by alleviating the need for implementing a
custom policy class for each model. Instead, the transformation is done
using a few lambda functions given directly as arguments.
Issue #4317
This patch introduces the lx_emul/pin.h interface that enables GPIO stub
drivers to interact with Genode's Pin_control and IRQ sessions via a
simple C API.
Fixes#4316
The new interfaces are meant to gradually replace the existing
Gpio_session interface.
- Each session refers to a single pin.
- The session types distiguish the direction of the signal as input or
output.
- Pin coordinates can be selected via session labels.
- GPIO interrupts are covered by the regular IRQ session interface.
The interfaces are accompanied by framework utilities and interfaces:
- os/pin_driver.h
- pin_control_session/component.h
- pin_state_session/component.h
These headers relieve GPIO drivers from implementing boilerplate code by
providing device-agnostic portions. The A64 pio driver serves as
reference for using those utilities.

Always instantiating a network device with id `net0`, removes the need to call
append_qemu_nic_args in run scripts unless we want to add forwarding
rules.
genodelabs/genode#4311
Allow specifying additional qemu arguments for externally supported boards
(e.g. zynq_qemu) by adding a `qemu_args` file in the board-property directory.
The syntax of the qemu_args file is as follows:
- Arguments can appear in a single line or in multiple lines as the
lines will be appended (separated by a whitespace) to the global
qemu_args variable.
- If the line is prepended with a `foobar:` expression. The arguments
are only added if the foobar spec is present.
Note, that a `-m` argument specified in the qemu_args file will
override the arguments provided by the run scripts.
genodelabs/genode#4311
First, the former implementation has only considered the pure numerical
variant of the -m argument. Yet, qemu also allows specifying the amount
of memory by `-m 1G`, `-m size=1G` and more.
Second, the default amount of memory for BOARD=pc was 512M (800M in case of okl4).
Since the depot_autopilot.run also required at least 768M on all
platforms it seems reasonable to take 800M as a default value for BOARD=pc and
thereby remove the special treatment of okl4.

- request FPU state on VM exit in portal config
- transfer FPU state on VM entry
- save fpu state early
Avoid any FPU instructions (for example during base API calls), which
use the FPU and overwrite FPU registers holding the guest vCPU FPU
state.
- don't save fpu state of EP

The commit avoids the race between checking for the NEM state and the decision
to notify (poke) the NEM backend (nem.cc).
- ever notify about POKE flag for remote vCPU
- check synchronized for NEM state
- store recheck flag and apply on next switch_to_hw
Issue #4313
In the default setting the number of root ports is set to 4. This
also limits the number of USB host devices that may be attached to
the VM. Since the USB webcam shares the slots, that leaves us with
only 3 available USB2 slots to attach USB host devices. Depending on
the use-case that might not be enough.
This commit statically increases the number of ports to 8 each and
adapts the qemu-usb glue-code accordingly.
Many thanks to Raphael for initial investigation and workaround.
Fixes#4310.
Accidentally, the size of IOMEM dataspace got accounted within the
implementation of the platform driver for ARM. Instead we should
only account a bit for the metadata and paging of the I/O memory.

The custom ack avail handler is required for zero-copy nic drivers (e.g.
the zynq nic driver), which must release the corresponding DMA buffers.

This patch adds a missing call of '_handle_decorator_margins' at
construction time. Up to commit "report_rom: versioning and explicit
notification" this problem was masked by an unconditional signal, which
implicitely triggered the call.
