In fact, the sizes were the same the whole time, but by using
the same enum in both cases to instantiate the Packet_stream_tx
and Packet_stream_rx members of the e.g. RPC object, it allows
for more flexible generalization between e.g. source or, sink
objects, when programming event-driven, and implementing generic
handlers for their signals.
Just use configuration values when existent, otherwise when no configuration
is given use the default values. When an incomplete configuration is given,
take the supplied ones, and for the rest the default ones. Fix#762
Don't use the xhci USB host controller for HID and NIC in the l4linux
run script. It doesn't work on the Pandaboard, and isn't needed for the
Arndale board. Moreover, provide a MAC address, and add a providing
rule in the KDB UART driver to supress ugly warnings. Fix#763
This patch makes the handling of failed integrity checks of 3rd-party
packages more robust. Previously, a once failed 'make prepare PKG=curl'
would not leave any trace of the verification state. Hence, a successive
attempt to perform the 'make prepare' step again succeeded even if the
signature check failed.
To solve this problem, the outcome of a successful signature check is
represented by a tag file called 'download/<archive-name>.verified'.
Because the rule for extracting the archive depends on the .verify tag
file, the extraction step is not performed until the signature check
succeeds.
Issue #748
The downloaded archives for building the tool chain are checked for its
signature before using them. In case of a signature failure, the build
is interrupted.
Issue #748
The signature verification tool uses gpg to verify the detached
signature of the given file.
It also tries to obtain the signing key if it is not part of the local
key ring.
Signature verification implies the verification of the integrity and
authenticity of a given file.
Issue #748
Instead of using a fixed command like picocom in the run tool,
it's better to have the flexibility to set the whole command that
connects to the serial device. Therefore, it's possible for instance
to connect to a remote serial device exported via TCP/IP by using tools
like socat.
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, 'liquid_framebuffer' can be reconfigured at runtime.
The configuration arguments are now provided as XML attributes, matching
those for 'nit_fb'. Furthermore, two new configuration options are added:
<config ...
resize_handle="off" - show/hide a resize handle widget in the lower
right window corner
decoration="on" - show/hide window decoration
(title bar and borders)

This is a first version of the AHCI driver. It supports SATA HDDs
with UDMA-133 only, up to 6 Gbps and native command queueing.
The more blocks one transfers with one command, the higher is the
chance that the driver produces a fatal handshake error. Nevertheless
the driver is stable with one block per ATA command. Although NCQ is
used the driver doesn't queue multiple commands simultanously.
The driver was tested with a western digital HDD "WDC WD2500BEVS-08VAT1
13.01A13" (250 GB) with hw_arndale (run/ahci) and foc_arndale
(run/ahci, run/l4linux: dd). SSDs were not tested.
Fix#706
The previous version of the PS/2 mouse backend manged mouse motion
events in a strange way, effectively throwing away most information
about the motion vector. Furthermore, the tracking of the mouse-button
states were missing. So drag-and-drop in a guest OS won't work. The new
version fixes those issues. For the transformation of input events to
PS/2 packets, a the Genode::Register facility is used. This greatly
simplifies the code.
This patch replaces the error-prone manual locking with the use of the
'Synced_interface' for the motherboard and the VCPU dispatcher. It also
removes all globally visible locks. Locks are now explicitly passed to
subsystems when needed.
