During initialization _handle_link_state may be called concurrently from EMT and
"nic_ep" (signal handler). Therefore, sent signal to "nic_ep" instead of calling
_handle_link_state from EMT thread.

The `with_sub_node` method is renamed to `with_optional_sub_node` to
better reflect that the non-existence of a sub node with the desired type is
ignored.
At the same time, the new `with_sub_node` now takes a second functor that is
called when no sub node of the desired type exists.

Guests are easily confused by spurious KEY_CAPSLOCK input events in
caps="rom" mode. These spurious events may reach the VMM if KEY_CAPSLOCK
is not pressed as first key in a combination and, therefore, is not
filtered as global key. Now, we filter KEY_CAPSLOCK in ROM mode in the
VMM explicitly, but let it pass in non-ROM mode.
Fixes#4087
The contrib code is updated from 2.4.1 to version 5.2.0 and the used
device-model is changed to QEMU xHCI. Due to this change older guests
OSes, namely Windows 7, that relied on the NEC xHCI device-model will
not work anymore.
The 'Qemu::Controller' interface was extended by an 'info' method, which
returns the vendor and product ID. This allows for removing the
hard-coded values in the VirtualBox glue code.
Issue #4018.
The former implemention assumed that the guest physical memory is
mapped continously. This, however, is not true. Writing larger
files to an USB stick with a Windows 10 guest would therefore lead
to data corruption.
The current implementation uses a bounce buffer to copy the data
to and from the guest physical memory and leaves dealing with the
memory mappings entirely up to the VMM.
Fixes#4017.
The patches disable VBOX_IGNORE_FLUSH and a sanity check in the VMDK
backend. This enables passing an explicit flush request by the guest
down to the VFS.
Fixes#3743.
Until now, Genode's framebuffer session interface was based on the
RGB565 pixel format. This patch changes the pixel format to 32-bit
XRGB where the X part is ignored. It adapts all graphical applications
and device drivers accordingly.
The patch also adjusts the users of the drivers_interactive packages,
assigning 64 MiB RAM and 1500 caps to the drivers subsystem, which is
sufficient for covering high resolutions at 32 bits per pixel and to
accommodate multi-component USB HID input stacks.
Fixes#3784
- Since Genode::strncpy is not 100% compatible with the POSIX
strncpy function, better use a distinct name.
- Remove bogus return value from the function, easing the potential
enforcement of mandatory return-value checks later.
Fixes#3752
This patch removes old 'Allocator_guard' utility and replaces its use
with the modern 'Constrained_ram_allocator'.
The adjustment of core in this respect has the side effect of a more
accurate capability accounting in core's CPU, TRACE, and RM services.
In particular, the dataspace capabilities needed for core-internal
allocations via the 'Sliced_heap' are accounted to the client now.
The same goes for nitpicker and nic_dump as other former users of the
allocator guard. Hence, the patch also touches code at the client and
server sides related to these services.
The only remaining user of the 'Allocator_guard' is the Intel GPU
driver. As the adaptation of this component would be too invasive
without testing, this patch leaves this component unchanged by keeping a
copy of the 'allocator_guard.h' locally at the component.
Fixes#3750
Make sure timers run at the same priority as component threads, otherwise
no timer progress can be made. See 'rtTimeNanoTSInternalRef' (timesupref.h)
and 'rtTimerLRThread' (timerlr-generic.cpp).

Issue #3550
This patch is the first step of re-organizing the internal structure of
the libc. The original version involved many direct calls of global
functions (often with side effects) across compilation units, which
made the control flow (e.g., the initialization sequence) hard to
follow.
The new version replaces those ad-hoc interactions with dedicated
interfaces (like suspend.h, resume.h, select.h, current_time.h). The
underlying facilities are provided by the central Libc::Kernel and
selectively propagated to the various compilation units. The latter is
done by a sequence of 'init_*' calls, which eventually will be replaced
by constructor calls.
The addition of new headers increases the chance for name clashes with
existing (public) headers. To disambiguate libc-internal header files
from public headers, this patch moves the former into a new 'internal/'
subdirectory. This makes the include directives easier to follow and the
libc's source-tree structure more tidy.
There are still a few legacies left, which cannot easily be removed
right now (e.g., because noux relies on them). However, the patch moves
those bad apples to legacy.h and legacy.cc, which highlights the
deprecation of those functions.
