Warnings like the following:
warning: narrowing conversion of ‘((Genode::Platform_pd*)this)->Genode::Platform_pd::_space_id’ from ‘int’ to ‘Codezero::l4id_t {aka unsigned int}’ inside { } is ill-formed in C++11 [-Wnarrowing]
First make the clients inaccessible and dissolve them from the entrypoint. If
this isn't the first step the clients may be obtained again between
the unlock and lock steps in the destructor.
Additionally the clients may be removed in between the unlock and call
sequence, which renders such client pointers dangling and causes spurious page
faults. Keep instead a lock as long as possible and when it is required to
release a lock, then the pointer to the objects must be revalidated.
Replace the dissolve function with a remove_client implementation as suggested
by #13, which avoids that the cpu_session may call dissolve with a dangling
pointer of a already removed rm_client object. Instead the pager must be
released explicitly.

This patch removes the 'soname' link option for building the host
library for the 'lx_hybrid_ctors' test. Without this option, the
library's absolute path at build time gets hardcoded into the
application, which should be okay for this simple test case.
Fixes#638.
If we ran out of capabilities indexes, the bit allocator throws an exception.
If this happens the code seems to hang and nothing happens.
Instead one could catch the exception and print some diagnostic message.
This would be nice, but don't work. Printing some diagnostic message itself
tries to do potentially IPC and will allocate new capability indexes at
least for the receive window.
So, catch the exception and let the thread die, so at least the instruction
pointer is left as trace to identify the reason of the trouble.
Fixes#625
If an exception is thrown the lock is released automatically, so that
other callers may get a capability index if in between some are freed. Fixes
some deadlocks if Genode is short on capability indexes.

Currently, the hello run script of the hello_tutorial misses some services the
timer driver needs on various platforms. The hello_tutorial is meant for
educational purposes only. So it's desireable to keep it simple. Instead of
complexifying the configuration, this commit just removes the timer from the
example.
By now, the memcmp implementation of Genode's basic string utilities just
returned whether two memory blocks are equal or differ. It gave no hint which
block is greater, or lesser than the other one. This isn't the behaviour
anticipated by implementations that rely on the C standard memcmp, e.g. GCC's
libsupc++, or the nic_bridge's AVL tree implementation.
With this patch, the 'Signal_receiver::dissolve()' function does not return
as long as the signal context to be dissolved is still referenced by one
or more 'Signal' objects. This is supposed to delay the destruction of the
signal context while it is still in use.
Fixes#594.
With this change, init becomes able to respond to config changes by
restarting the scenario with the new config. To make this feature useful
in practice, init must not fail under any circumstances. Even on
conditions that were considered as fatal previously and led to the abort
of init (such as ambiguous names of the children or misconfiguration in
general), init must stay alive and responsive to config changes.
This patch improves the config handling by falling back to a static
string (empty "<config />") if no valid config ROM module could be
found. This can happen initially, but also at runtime when the ROM
module dissapears, e.g., a ROM module accessed via fs_rom where the
corresponding file gets unlinked.
This patch introduces keyboard-focus events to the 'Input::Event' class
and changes the name 'Input::Event::keycode' to 'code'. The 'code'
represents the key code for PRESS/RELEASE events, and the focus state
for FOCUS events (0 - unfocused, 1 - focused).
Furthermore, nitpicker has been adapted to deliver FOCUS events to its
clients.
Fixes#609
This patch extends the file-system interface with the ability to monitor
changes of files or directories. The new 'File_system::sigh' function
can be used to install a signal handler for an open node.
The 'ram_fs' server has been enhanced to support the new interface. So
any file or directory changes can now be observed by 'ram_fs' clients.
Fixes#607
