Some SDL applications expect the SDL_image headers in include/SDL to be
reachable without the SDL/ prefix. This patch adds the corresponding
search path. Furthermore it enables support for XPM images.
Ported drivers list and extract all needed source files. This decouples

The manpage to errno tells the following story:
The <errno.h> header file defines the integer variable errno, which is
set by system calls and some library functions in the event of an error
to indicate what went wrong. Its value is significant only when the
return value of the call indicated an error (i.e., -1 from most system
calls; -1 or NULL from most library functions); a function that
succeeds is allowed to change errno.
Valid error numbers are all nonzero; errno is never set to zero by any
system call or library function.
When the 'Mtd::FPU' flag is set during the registration of a
virtualization event handler, it must also be set whenever the event
handler returns.
Fixes#1283
This patch ensures that priority values passed as session arguments
are within the valid range of priorities. Without the clamping, a child
could specify a priority of a lower priority band than the one assigned
to the subsystem. Thanks to Johannes Schlatow for reporting this issue.
Fixes#1279
This is just a quick fix to calm down the buildbot - a revised
implementation is needed according to issue #1277. Further, the reason
for the increased test duration on several platforms must be
investigated.
The alias is rather Linux-specific and also prevents particularly
tailored jiffies implementations. For the existing dde_linux ports (usb
and lxip) we just define jiffies to be dde_kit_timer_ticks with a
preprocessor macro.
The menu view generates a simple dialog of widgets and reports the
hovered element. It is meant to be embedded into applications that
require simple GUIs but don't want to deal with the pecularities of
a full-blown widget set.
The new 'session_control' function can be used to perform operations on
the global view stack that span one or multiple sessions, e.g., bringing
all views of specific sessions to the front, or hiding them.
If the Rom_session::update function returns false, the ROM dataspace may
have been physically destructed (and core has removed all mappings).
In this case, we have to omit the detach operation in the destructor
of 'Attached_dataspace' to avoid detaching the same region twice.
The headers 'texture_rgb565.h' and 'texture_rgb888' contain
template specializations needed for using the 'Texture::rgba' function
for the respective pixel formats. The specializations were formerly
contained in application-local code.
This patch add an optional alpha argument to the constructor, which may
be passed to a pixel type representing an alpha channel. Furthermore,
a new overload of the mix function has been added to accommodate use
cases where one texture is applied to both a pixel surface and an alpha
channel.
When X-ray mode is active, nitpicker filters motion events that are not
referring to the currently focused domain. However, domains configured
as xray="no" (such as a panel) need to obtain motion events regardless
of the xray mode. This patch relaxes the motion-event filtering to
accommodate such clients.
The buffer offset was wrongly accounted for. The miscalculation went
unnoticed until now because the buffer offset was apparently never used
in combination with alpha-channels.
If a domain is configured as xray="no", we want to let the views of the
domain respond to input events like in flat mode, even if xray mode is
active. Normally, the input mask of views with an alpha channel is
disregarded in X-ray mode. However, for non-ray views, the input mask
should always be considered.
The 'Signal_rpc_member' takes care about dissolving its signal context
from the receiver. So we don't need to manually perform this operation
in the session destructor.
With this patch, the VESA driver chooses the video mode with the highest

The backend allocator for the slab is a sliced heap, which hands out
allocations with page-size granularity (4096 bytes). Therefore, the
slab-block size should also be about a multiple of the page size minus
some bytes of overhead.
Additional adjustments:
- The slab-block size and the default quota-upgrade amount for SIGNAL
sessions depends on the platform bit width now.
- The signal test also stresses the case of many managed context in one
session including creation and destruction of the used signal receiver
in repeated rounds.
- correctly catch and report non-existing root directories
- remove *all* leading slashes from root-directory attributes and
sanitize empty declarations to current working directory
The weak implementation was added for quite special purposes years ago
and is no longer needed. On the other hand, the weak attribute does not
help if the implementation ends up in a shared library, which first
resolves symbols locally before asking ldso (that includes the acutal
thread library) *shiver*
The original git:// URL produced the following error:

Before the pointer handling was removed from the nitpicker server, the
pointer was always the first view, which was skipped in the find_view
function. However, since we support pointer-less operation by now, we
have to consider all views starting with the top-most one.
The port was succesfully tested a echo test and lighttpd. DHCP over

This commit adds a port the jitterentropy library to Genode. As
backend on x86_{32,64} 'rdtsc' is used and on ARMv{6,7} the

Fixes#1239.
These file systems are provided on-demand by loading a shared library
when the fstab node is traversed. By convention this library is named
after the file system it provides. For example a file system that
provides a 'random' file system node is called 'vfs_random.lib.so'. It
is still possible to give the the node another name in the vfs. The
following code snippts illustrates this matter:
! [...]
! <config>
! <libc>
! <vfs>
! <dir name="dev"> <jitterentropy name="random"/> </dir>
! </vfs>
! </libc>
! </config>
! [...]
Here the jitterentropy file system, implemented in
'vfs_jitterentropy.lib.so' provides a file system node named 'random'
in the 'dev' directory. When traversing the vfs section the libc will
try to load 'vfs_jitterentropy.lib.so' but programs may access the
file system only via '/dev/random'.
Fixes#1240.
This patch fixes a potential race condition that could happen if a
client connects to nitpicker before the signal for the import of the
initial configuration was delivered. In this case, nitpicker would be
unable to assign a domain to the session (because this information comes
from the configuration), rendering subsequent calls to 'mode' invalid.
The patch solves this problem by manually calling the signal handler
for importing the configuration.
This provides bootable disk images for x86 platforms via
! RUN_OPT="--target disk"
The resulting disk image contains one ext2 partition with binaries from
the GRUB2 boot loader and the run scenario. The default disk size fits
all binaries, but is configurable via
! --disk-size <size in MiB>
in RUN_OPT.
The feature depends on an grub2-head.img, which is part of the commit,
but may also be generated by executing tool/create_grub2. The script
generates a disk image prepared for one partition, which contains files
for GRUB2. All image preparation steps that need superuser privileges
are conducted by this script.
The final step of writing the entire image to a disk must be executed
later by
sudo dd if=<image file> of=<device> bs=8M conv=fsync

After modifying mode transition for branch prediction tz_vmm wasn't
working anymore on hw_imx53_tz but the modifications had nothing to do
with the VM code. However, the amount of instructions in the MT before the
VM exception-vector changed. So I tried stuffing the last working version with
NOPs and found that tz_vmm worked for some NOP amounts and for others not.
Thus, I increased the alignment of the VM exception-vector from 16 bytes to 32
bytes, é voila, its working with any amount of NOPs as well as with branch
prediction commits.
ref #474
Previously, we did the protection-domain switches without a transitional
translation table that contains only global mappings. This was fine as long
as the CPU did no speculative memory accesses. However, to enabling branch
prediction triggers such accesses. Thus, if we don't want to invalidate
predictors on every context switch, we need to switch more carefully.
ref #474
The console included nitpicker_view headers, which were not used. The
headers vanished with the recent nitpicker API change, which broke the
build of seoul.
This patch reimplements the nit_fb server using the server API and
thereby enables the dynamic resizing the of the framebuffer.
Note that the new implementation does not feature the ability to perform
a periodic refresh via the 'refresh_rate' configuration argument. This
feature was removed because the refresh policy can (and should) always
be implemented on the client side.
The QPluginWidget used to be a QNitpickerViewWidget but the new loader
interface does no longer hand out a view capability. So we need to
decouple both classes. This patch moves the view-geometry calculation to
a separate class to make it easier reusable, in particular for the
QPluginWidget.
The window manager provides a nitpicker session interface. In contrast
to the nitpicker server, which leaves the view layout up to the client,
the window manager organizes the views on screen according to a policy
provided by a window layouter. Furthermore, it equips views with window
decorations as provided by a window decorator. Both layouter and
decorator are independent programs.
This patch adds support for the consecutive re-dimensioning the virtual
framebuffer. When changing the buffer size, the session gets upgraded by
the missing portion of the quota instead of donating the whole size of
the new buffer each time.
This patch introduces a way to tweak the coordinate systems per
domain. The 'origin' attribute denotes the origin of the coordinate
system. Valid values are "top_left", "top_right", "bottom_left",
"bottom_right", and "pointer". Furthermore, the screen dimensions as
reported to the nitpicker client can be tweaked per domain using the
'width' and 'height' attributes. If the specified value is positive,
it is taken as literal boundary. If the value is negative, the size
if deducted by the specified amount from the physical screen area.
This patch introduces a mandatory layer attribute to domains. The layer
ordering is superimposed on the stacking order of the views. The
top-most layer can be assigned to a pointer-managing client. An example
for such a pointer is located at os/src/app/pointer. It replaces the
formerly built-in nitpicker mouse cursor.
The new layering mechanism replaces the former "stay-top" session
argument. So the Nitpicker::Connection no longer takes the stay-top flag
as the first argument.
A session can be explicitly configured to present its views in a
completely opaque way when the X-ray mode is active as opposed to the
default where each view gets tinted and surrounded by a frame. This
is useful for decorator views, which look overly busy otherwise.
This patch introduces the notion of a "domain" to the nitpicker
configuration concept. Session policies always refer to a domain where
multiple session policies can refer to the same domain. Thereby a domain
provides a way to express the grouping of sessions. This is useful for
applications that open multiple nitpicker sessions (such as Qt5 apps that
use one nitpicker session per window, menu, etc.). We want to assign all
those sessions to a single domain.
The configuration looks as follows:
<config>
...
<domain name="default" color="#ffffff"/>
<policy label="" domain="default"/>
...
</config>
This patch changes nitpicker's session interface to use session-local
view handles instead of view capabilities. This enables the batching
of multiple view operations into one atomic update.
This patch introduces a focus-management facility to the nitpicker
session interface. As a side effect of this change, we remove the notion
of a "focused view". There can only be a "focused session". This makes
sense because input is directed to sessions, not views.
Issue #1168
This patch changes nitpicker's way of redrawing. Originally, redraw
operations were triggered immediately by the RPC functions invoked by
clients. In the presence of clients that invoked a large number of those
functions, the server could become overloaded with processing redraw
operations. The new version performs redraw operations out of band with
the RPC functions. Similar to the design of the DOpE GUI server, redraw
operations are processed periodically. The RPC functions merely modify
meta data and track the dirty areas that need to be updated.
Consequently, nitpicker's RPC functions become light-weight operations.
As a nice collateral effect of this patch, nitpicker's internal
structure could be simplified because the drawing backend is no longer
needed by the code that dispatches the RPC interface.
So far, the lifetime-management utilities 'Weak_ptr' and 'Locked_ptr'
had been preserved for core-internal use only. However, the utilities
are handy for many use cases outside of core where object lifetimes
must be managed. So we promote them to the public API.
The new Rom_session::update function can be used to request the update of
an existing ROM dataspace. If the new data fits into the existing
dataspace, a subsequent call of 'dataspace' can be omitted. This way,
ROM dataspace updates don't suffer from page-fault-handling costs that
would occur when replacing the dataspace with each update.
When calling 'sub_node' on a node with no sub nodes, the Xml_node would
interpret the characters after the current node while searching for sub
nodes. The patch adds a sanity check that lets the 'sub_node' function
throw an exception when called on a node with no sub nodes.
This patch makes the handling of constructor arguments consistent among
the Volatile_object and Lazy_volatile_object classes. Arguments are
always forwarded. Otherwise, passing a reference as argument would result
in an unwanted copy of the passed object.
Some session interfaces use session-local handles for referring to
server-side objects, e.g., a file-system session hands out file handles
to the client. The new 'Handle_registry' class template can be used to
associate numeric handles with objects on the server side and thereby
simplifies the implementation of such servers.
This patch enables the debugging on services that rely on dynamic
session upgrades. For example, nitpicker expects its clients to donate
RAM quota that matches the size of the virtual framebuffer, which might
change during the lifetime of a nitpicker session.

"timer: nova specific version of the service"
a nova specific timer is used and this quirk is not necessary anymore.
Issue #1211
When a page fault cannot be resolved, the GDB monitor can get a hint about
which thread faulted by evaluating the thread state object returned by
'Cpu_session::state()'. Unfortunately, with the current implementation,
the signal which informs GDB monitor about the page fault is sent before
the thread state object of the faulted thread has been updated, so it
can happen that the faulted thread cannot be determined immediately
after receiving the signal.
With this commit, the thread state gets updated before the signal is sent.
At least on base-nova it can also happen that the thread state is not
accessible yet after receiving the page fault notification. For this
reason, GDB monitor needs to retry its query until the state is
accessible.

The count value can be used to batch timeouts. I.e., if a periodic
timeout triggered multiple times before the timer had a chance to
process them, the count corresponds to the number of passed periods.
A subject that inherits from Processor_client not necessarily has the need for
doing a processor-global TLB flush (e.g. VMs). At the other hand the Thread
class (as representation of the only source of TLB flushes) is already one of
the largest classes in base-hw because it provides all the syscall backends
and should therefore not accumulate other aspects without a functional reason.
Hence, I decided to move the aspect of synchronizing a TLB flush over all
processors to a dedicated class named Processor_domain_update.
Additionally a singleton of Processor_domain_update_list is used to enable
each processor to see all update-domain requests that are currently pending.

Commit 6a3368ee that refactored the mode transition assembler path, and
high-level entry point, fundamentally broke that part for the TrustZone VMs.
Instead of jumping to the appropriated address, the instruction value at that

Moreover, the TrustZone part of the mode transition page was not included into
the boundary check.
Ref #1182
On ARM it's relevant to not only distinguish between ordinary cached memory
and write-combined one, but also having non-cached memory too. To insert the
appropriated page table entries e.g.: in the base-hw kernel, we need to preserve
the information about the kind of memory from allocation until the pager
resolves a page fault. Therefore, this commit introduces a new Cache_attribute
type, and replaces the write_combined boolean with the new type where necessary.
Depending on 'src_w' and 'dst_w', different lines of a block to copy may be
32-bit aligned or not, so the alignment of each line needs to get checked.

By now the scheduling timer was only refreshed for a new scheduling timeout
when the choosen scheduling context has changed. But we want it to be refreshed

or a thread yields without any competitor in its priority band).

This patch changes both the Input::Session interface and the skeleton
for the server-side implementation of this interface
('input/component.h').
The Input::Session interface offers a new 'sigh' function, which can be
called be the client to register a signal handler. The signal handler
gets notified on the arrival of new input. This alleviates the need to
poll for input events at the client side.
The server-side skeleton for implementing input services underwent a
redesign to make it more modular and robust. I.e., there are no
global functions needed at the server side and the event-queue
enable/disable mechanism is implemented at a central place (in the root
component) rather than inside each driver.

In case the storage-entry point dispatches more then one packet, wait for the

On ARM, when machine instructions get written into the data cache
(for example by a JIT compiler), one needs to make sure that the
instructions get written out to memory and read from memory into
the instruction cache before they get executed. This functionality
is usually provided by a kernel syscall and this patch adds a generic
interface for Genode applications to use it.
Fixes#1153.
The 'rump_cgd' server provides block level encryption for a block
session by employing the 'cgd(4)' device provided by the rumpkernel.
'rump_cgd' uses a Block_session to get access to an existing block
device and provides another Block_session to its clients. Each block
written or read by the client is transperently encrypted or decrypted
by the server.
For now 'rump_cgd' may only _configure_ a 'cgd' device but is unable
to generate a configuration. The used cipher is hardcoded to
_aes-cbc_ with a keysize of 256 bit. Furthermore the server is able to
serve one client only.
To ease the usage, its interface is modelled after the interface of
'cgdconfig(8)'. As implications thereof the key must have the same
format as used by 'cgdconfig'. That means the key is a base 64 encoded
string in which the first 4 bytes denote the actual length of the key
in bits (these 4 bytes are stored in big endian order).
Preparing a raw (e.g. without partition table) encrypted Ext2 disk
image is done by executing 'tool/rump':
! dd if=/dev/urandom of=/path/to/disk_image
! rump -c /path/to/disk_image # key is printed to stdout
! rump -c -k <key> -F ext2fs /path/to/disk_image
To use this disk image the following config snippet can be used:
! <start name="rump_cgd">
! <resource name="RAM" quantum="8M" />
! <provides><service name="Block"/></provides>
! <config action="configure">
! <params>
! <method>key</method>}
! <key>AAABAJhpB2Y2UvVjkFdlP4m44449Pi3A/uW211mkanSulJo8</key>
! </params>
! </config>
! <route>
! <service name="Block"> <child name="ahci"/> </service>
! <any-service> <parent/> <any-child/> </any-service>
! </route>
! </start>
the Block service provided by rump_cgd may be used by a file system
server in return:
! <start name="rump_fs">
! <resource name="RAM" quantum="16M"/>
! <provides><service name="File_system"/></provides>
! <config fs="ext2fs">
! <policy label="" root="/" writeable="yes"/>
! </config>
! <route>
! <service name="Block"> <child name="rump_cgd"/> </service>
! <any-service> <parent/> <any-child/> </any-service>
! </route>
! </start>
Since 'tool/rump' just utilizes the rumpkernel running on the host
system to do its duty there is a script called 'tool/cgdconf' that
extracts the key from a 'cgdconfig(8)' generated configuration file
and also is able to generade such a file from a given key. Thereby
the interoperabilty between 'rump_cgd' and the general rumpkernel
based tools is secured.
On ARM in one way or another 'string.h' prototypes will be used. Move
the definitions from rump_fs to the rump library because it is needed
by all rump based servers running on ARM.
