The functionality of the test-block-client, test-block-server, and
test-block-bench components is now covered by the block_tester
application and the vfs_block server.
Issue #4405
- CPU-architecture annotations
- Change order of top-level menu, moving Mesa driver to the end
- Add black_hole, recall_fs, file_fault
- Add usb_webcam, test-capture
- Add audio driver and mixer
- Add vbox6, keeping vbox5-nova-sculpt as fallback
- Remove recall_fs launcher, which is obsolete with the recall_fs pkg
- Replace system_clock by system_clock-pc pkg
Issue #4281
The former implementation did not internally track ROM changes notified
vs. delivered to the client. We adapt the versioning implementation
implemented in dynamic_rom_session.h and enable explicit notification of
the current version.
The feature is used by the clipboard to notify permitted readers of the
clipboard ROM service on focus change via the newly created private
Rom::Module::_notify_permitted_readers() function.
Fixes#4274
The 'black_hole' component provides dummy implementations of common
session interfaces.
At this time, only the 'Audio_out' session is provided if enabled
in the configuration of the component:
<config>
<audio_out/>
</config>
Issue #3653
If the trace subjects are not properly destructed when the TRACE client
disappears, enabled sources will be owned by a non-existing client.
In other words, when a TRACE client disappears all sources owned by the
client must be disabled.

WARNING: BREAKS CONFIG COMPATIBILITY!
This commit changes the configuration interface of the NIC router in a way that
may break systems that use the component without proper adjustment!
How to adjust:
At each occurrence of the 'dns_server_from' attribute in a NIC router
configuration replace the attribute name with 'dns_config_from'. The attribute
value remains unaltered.
DETAILED DESCRIPTION
The new attribute name 'dns_config_from' reflects that also other aspects of
the DNS configuration of the denominated domain are used by the DHCP server
that holds the attribute. This commit is a preparation for forwarding also the
domain name (DHCP option 15) with the mechanism behind the attribute.
Ref #4246
BREAKS CONFIG COMPATIBILITY:
This commit changes the configuration interface of the NIC router in a way that
may break systems that use the component without proper adjustment!
HOW TO ADJUST:
At each occurrence of the '<uplink ...>' tag in a NIC router configuration
replace the tag name 'uplink' with 'nic-client'. The rest of the tag stays the
same.
The term "uplink" for network interfaces in the router that have a NIC session
client as back end was introduced in a time when Uplink sessions didn't yet
exist. Now, they do and, although both an uplink and an Uplink session
normally describe a network session between router and network device driver,
they are based on two different service types (NIC and Uplink). This can easily
cause confusion when integrating the router (the <uplink> is not related to
Uplink sessions) or trying to understand its functioning (an 'Uplink' object
has nothing to do with the Uplink service).
Therefore, this commit introduces the more specific term "NIC client" for an
interface that is based on a NIC session requested by the router. This doesn't
imply any semantic changes at the NIC router. However, the commit also brings a
broader update of the router's README and removes the term "downlink" that was
used only in documentation to refer to interfaces backed by a NIC session
provided by the router. The term was only associated with this meaning because
it is the natural counterpart to an uplink. This isn't appropriate anymore as
the terms for interface types have moved to a more technical level.
The commit adjusts all scenarios in the basic Genode repositories properly.
Fixes#4238
The driver is faily simple and does not support fancy features like
TCP checksum offloading or vlan filtering, but it is fully capable of
running every Genode network based scenario I've tried. Its currently
known to work on virt_qemu arm platforms and x86_64.
