The 'tinfo.cc' file needs to get built, because it implements
'std::type_info::operator==(std::type_info const&) const', which
is needed by the 'icu' library on ARM.
Fixes#1109.
This information is useful if 'libc-common.inc' is included from
another repository, i.e., for building stripped-down libc variants
tailored to an individual application.
For a main thread a thread object is created by the CRT0 before _main gets
called so that _main can already run in a generic environment that, e.g.,
catches stack overflows as a page-fault instead of corrupting the BSS.
Additionally dynamic programs have only one CRT0 - the one of the LDSO -
which does the initialization for both LDSO and program.
ref #989
The Genode-specific implementation of 'QWaitCondition' contains a race
condition which can make the 'qt5_samegame' application hang on Fiasco.OC.
Since most of the pthread synchronization functions needed by the
UNIX-specific implementation of 'QWaitCondition' and 'QMutex' are
available now, we can use these now instead of fixing and keeping
the Genode-specific implementation.
Fixes#993.
This patch enables experimental QML support in Qt5.
Only the QtQuick plugin is available yet.
Currently runs best on Linux and has some problems on NOVA and Fiasco.OC.
Fixes#979.
This FUSE implementation consists of libfuse, which provides a
subset of the FUSE 2.6 API and libc_fuse, which provides support
for accessing FUSE based file system via the libc.
Fixes#942.
Originally, the convenience utility for accessing a process
configuration came in the form of a header file. But this causes
aliasing problems if multiple compilation units access the config while
the configuration gets dynamically updated. Moving the implementation of
the accessor to the singleton object into a library solves those
problems.
With this patch, the 'not implemented' messages of the pthread function
stubs always get printed to the Genode log console instead of stdout.
Issue #815.
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, the 'libc_lwip_nic_dhcp' plugin provides the DNS server
address acquired by lwIP via DHCP in the file '/etc/resolv.conf'.
This feature can be disabled from the config file:
<libc resolv="no" />
The static network interface configuration attributes are now also a part
of the '<libc>' config node:
<libc ip_addr="..." netmask="..." gateway="..." />
Fixes#731.
This patch simplifies the way of how Genode's base libraries are
organized. Originally, the base API was implemented in the form of many
small libraries such as 'thread', 'env', 'server', etc. Most of them
used to consist of only a small number of files. Because those libraries
are incorporated in any build, the checking of their inter-dependencies
made the build process more verbose than desired. Also, the number of
libraries and their roles (core only, non-core only, shared by both core
and non-core) were not easy to capture.
Hereby, the base libraries have been reduced to the following few
libraries:
- startup.mk contains the startup code for normal Genode processes.
On some platform, core is able to use the library as well.
- base-common.mk contains the parts of the base library that are
identical by core and non-core processes.
- base.mk contains the complete base API implementation for non-core
processes
Consequently, the 'LIBS' declaration in 'target.mk' files becomes
simpler as well. In the most simple case, only the 'base' library must
be mentioned.
Fixes#18
This patch adds libstdc++ to libports. With the previous version of the
stdcxx library, the build system used the C++ standard library that
comes with the compiler. This mechanism was prone to inconsistencies of
types defined in the header files used at compile time of the tool chain
and the types provided by our libc. By building the C++ standard library
as part of the Genode build process, such inconsistencies cannot happen
anymore.
Note that the patch changes the meaning of the 'stdcxx' library for
users that happened to rely on 'stdcxx' for hybrid Linux/Genode
applications. For such uses, the original mechanism is still available,
in the renamed form of 'toolchain_stdcxx'.
