Instead of using a somewhat incomplete module_param_named() macro,
which will influence other drivers, patch the driver that requires
this treatment.

This overload covers the common case for initializing a string from a
literal without employing the 'Output' mechanism. This way, such
strings can by constructed without calling virtual functions, which in
turn makes the 'String' usable for the 'init_rtld' phase of the dynamic
linker.
This patch fixes a race condition triggered by the thread test running
on Linux inside VirtualBox. The 'test_stack_alloc' sporadically produced
one of two errors: A segfault in the 'Thread::deinit_platform_thread' on
the attempt to access the 'native_thread' of the to-be-destructed thread
(this data structure is located on the thread's stack). Or, an error
message about a region conflict within the stack area.
The problem was that two instances of 'Region_map_mmap' issued a
sequence of munmap and mmap each. Even though each instance locked the
attach/detach operations, the lock was held per instance. In a situation
where two instances performed attach/detach operations in parallel, the
syscall sequences could interfere with each other.
In the test scenario, the two region-map instances are the test's
address space and the stack area. When creating a thread, the thread's
trace-control dataspace is attached at an arbitrary place (picked by
the Linux kernel) within the address space whereas the stack is attached
at the stack area. The problem is the following sequence:
Thread A wants to destruct a thread:
1. Remove stack from stack area
(issue unmap syscall)
2. Preserve virtual address range that was occupied from the stack
so that Linux won't use it
(issue mmap syscall)
Thread B wants to construct a thread:
1. Request trace-control dataspace from CPU session
2. Attach trace-control dataspace to address space at a location
picked by the Linux kernel
(issue mmap syscall)
The problem occurs when thread B's second step is executed in between
the steps 1 and 2 of thread A and the Linux kernel picks the
just-unmapped address as the location for the new trace-control mapping.
Now, the trace control dataspace is mapped at the virtual address that
was designated for the stack of the to-be-created thread, and the
attempt to map the real stack fails.
The patch fixes the problem by replacing the former region-map-local
locks by a component-global lock.
Furthermore, it cleans up core's implementation of the support function
for the region-map-mmap implementation, eliminating the temporary
unlocking of the region-map lock during RPC.

Instead of solving the problem to deliver ROM modules to core while booting
differently for the several kernels (multi-boot, elfweaver, core re-linking),
this commit unifies the approaches. It always builds core as a library, and
after all binaries are built from a run-script, the run-tool will link an
ELF image out of the core-library and all boot modules. Thereby, core can
access its ROM modules directly.
This approach now works for all kernels except Linux.
With this solution, there is no [build_dir]/bin/core binary available anymore.
For debugging purposes you will find a core binary without boot modules, but
with debug symbols under [run_dir].core.

This patch makes the build-system integration of noux packages usable
for non-Noux targets. It moves the GNU build system wrapper to
ports/mk/gnu_build.mk, which is now included by noux.mk. This way,
non-noux applications can use the same build-system wrapper. So the
porting of individual applications becomes easier.
This change removes the 'NOUX_' prefix use the various build variables
used by the noux-pkg's target.mk files to steer the behaviour of the GNU
build system. E.g., NOUX_CONFIGURE_ARGS is now called CONFIGURE_ARGS.
Note that there is a single exception to this pattern: The formerly
named NOUX_LIBS is now called LDLIBS because the plain LIBS variable is
used by the Genode build system.

A run script to demonstrate the combination of the cpu_sampler, fs_log,
ram_fs and noux components for saving the sampled data in files and

contains the correct instruction pointer. When the script is run
interactively, the generated files can be accessed from a Noux Bash shell.

In other contexts (IPv4) 'calc_checksum' merely returns a new checksum that is

Both, client and server now read their IP config from their Genode config.
Furthermore, the client now waits 4 instead of 2 seconds before sending the

This patch adds the missing exception handling for depleted RM session
quotas. If core runs out of session quota while creating a new region

issue!

This patch revives our ds_ownership test from 2012, which just revealed

test to the autopilot.

Besides adapting the components to the use of base/log.h, the patch
cleans up a few base headers, i.e., it removes unused includes from
root/component.h, specifically base/heap.h and
ram_session/ram_session.h. Hence, components that relied on the implicit
inclusion of those headers have to manually include those headers now.
While adjusting the log messages, I repeatedly stumbled over the problem
that printing char * arguments is ambiguous. It is unclear whether to
print the argument as pointer or null-terminated string. To overcome
this problem, the patch introduces a new type 'Cstring' that allows the
caller to express that the argument should be handled as null-terminated
string. As a nice side effect, with this type in place, the optional len
argument of the 'String' class could be removed. Instead of supplying a
pair of (char const *, size_t), the constructor accepts a 'Cstring'.
This, in turn, clears the way let the 'String' constructor use the new
output mechanism to assemble a string from multiple arguments (and
thereby getting rid of snprintf within Genode in the near future).
To enforce the explicit resolution of the char * ambiguity, the 'char *'
overload of the 'print' function is marked as deleted.
