Unfortunately, our current implementation of 'wmb()' doesn't seem to do what we
want it to do. On base-hw + imx6q_sabrelite, the write of bdp->cbd_sc seems to
get re-ordered after the write to txq->bd.reg_desc_active in the transmission
path of the contrib code. Due to this, the transmission of the packet is only
triggered the next time a packet is sent. However, we only quick-fix it by
enforcing the execution of the write with a volatile global read as we will
soon update the FEC NIC port with a new DDE approach anyway.

The wpa_supplicant refuses to set the BSSID in case it is quoted.
Removing the quotes allows for specifying the BSSID in the
configuration.
Fixes#4175.
- Do not perform desctruction on report updatea in EP because
'unregister_device' may block on Led state 'update' (synchronous
control message) leading to the driver being stuck because no more
signals are received
- Check if device is present in 'submit_urb' calls
fixes#4166
- Signal device ready depending on state (ready or not) immediately or
when "actconfig" is set
- Report new devices when ready
- Drain packet stream in case there is no device present (needed for
synchronous operations at client side)
- Do not use 'session_device' on device destruction, check pointer
directly instead
issue #4149
Comment in Linux sources:
Since an ethernet header is 14 bytes network drivers often end up with
the IP header at an unaligned offset. The IP header can be aligned by
shifting the start of the packet by 2 bytes. Drivers should do this
with:
skb_reserve(skb, NET_IP_ALIGN);
This is ensured when using netdev_alloc_skb_ip_align().
Issue #4094
This patch takes advantage of block transfer interrupts on Intel XHCI
controllers which is used during isochronous transfers. Because of a bug
in hardware (see usb_host_isoc_bei.patch header), this feature has been
disabled for Intel leading to up to 8000 interrupts/s for isochronous
transfer causing severe CPU consumption on Genode. With this commit we
lower host driver consumption to normal levels.
issue #4149
A Lx::Task is now associated to a USB device not the session any more.
This implies that a task lives as long as the device making it possible
to gracefully handle outstanding requests (i.e., synchronous) in case
the session has been closed.
issue #4149
The former implementation called 'TRACE_AND_STOP' which led to the
'usb_host_drv' to stop whenever such a function was called. Rather
than stopping return '0' and let the contrib code deal with this
situation.
Issue #4116.
This commit backports the Linux upstream commit (d4a6106) [*]
that introduces a check to prevent the sglist from being used
unconditionally.
[*] 'xhci: fix bounce buffer usage for non-sg list case'
Fixes#4116.
* The device XML information dataspace is only provided,
when the client's policy states `info="yes"`
* The device XM information gets changed to include the
physical resource names (I/O memory and IRQ addresses)
instead of virtual ids and page offset
Fix#4077
As linux drivers may distinguish device configuration by pci subdevice id in
addition to the pci device id, the former must also be used for finding the
matching entry. Otherwise, e.g., the iwlwifi driver might load the wrong
firmware.
Side note: Add break statement to save superfluous iterations after
match was identified.
Fixes genodelabs#4076
This API rework eases the access to memory-mapped I/O registers and
interrupts when using the platform driver. It introduces the notions of
- Platform::Device - one device obtained from a platform session
- Platform::Device::Mmio - locally-mapped MMIO registers of a device
- Platform::Device::Irq - interface for receiving device interrupts
The patch touches several drivers. Some drivers would require a
significant structural change to adopt the new API (e.g., net/virtio,
dde_linux drivers, imx gpio). In these cases, the patch adds
compatibility shims meant to be temporary. In other cases (e.g., imx
i2c), the adaptation was simple enough to carry through.
Fixes#4075
This patch extends the 'Platform_session::alloc_dma_buffer' interface
with a 'Cache' argument that corresponds to the argument accepted by
'Ram_allocator::alloc', which is used by the platform driver under the
hood.
Since the x86 platform driver used to be hardwired to allocate DMA
buffers as UNCACHED, I adjusted all drivers by specifying the UNCACHED
argument. Right now, this is needed as a hint for core to steer the
allocation of I/O page tables. Once we eliminate the need for such hints
(by introducing an explicit 'Region_map::attach_dma' operation), we can
revisit the drivers individually because cached DMA buffers should
generally be fine on the x86 architecture.
Issue #2243
The commits adds the same configuration values as supported up to now by
the monolithic usb driver. In contrast to the original, by default all drivers
are started. Disabling a controller type is used by Sculpt, e.g. for OHCI if
running Sculpt inside Virtualbox.
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
