As discovered by Johannes Kliemann, peeking at buffered socket data
using 'recv' and 'MSG_PEEK' is not supported. Read a "peek" control file
from the socket directory to attempt to peek into buffers at the
socket_fs. Support for every feature of POSIX sockets cannot be
expected, but this one is trivial to implement.
Fix#2875
The driver always opens the audio device in duplex mode, i.e.,
playback and recording. Setting the 'playback' or 'recording' attribute
only influnces the service announcement. Due to changes made in a more
recent OpenBSD release recording must be set enabled explicitly anyway.
Since we already provide the interface that mirrors the one used by
OpenBSD 1:1 in the configuration use that and the remove the additional
config attributes.
Fixes#3757.
The former ldso-startup static library (now called ldso_so_support) is
used to spice each shared object/library with local support code for the
dynamic linker (execution of static constructors and ARM-EABI).
Therefore, the library must be statically linked to each dynamic
library.
As a result recipes for dynamic libraries must always depend on the "so"
API, which makes ldso_so_support.mk and so_support.c available
independent of "base". Additionally, ldso_so_support is also provided in
the libc API to cut the dependency early for libc/posix libraries.
Issue #3720
If a "cat" tool as simple as the removed one is needed, it should be
implemented with Goa, only depend on libc/posix (*not* base), and be
named "simple_cat". Up to today, the misleading naming of the removed
tool, tricked me into believing "test-pipe" tests POSIX pipes, which it
did not!
This patch fixes the handling of the corner case where the allocation of
a trace buffer throws 'Out_of_caps' or 'Out_of_ram'. Under this
circumstance, the '_buffer' would still be flagged with the 'size',
which prevented any subsequent allocation attempt. This patch fixes the
problem by initializing the 'size' after the potentially throwing
allocation.
The problem triggered with the test-trace_logger after the accounting of
core's TRACE service (replacing the 'Allocator_guard' by
'Constrained_ram_allocator') became more accurate.

The 'WHITESPACE' case of the _calc_len method wrongly accessed the
character before checking upper bound of the token. The problem is fixed
by switching the order of both conditions.
Fixes#3756
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
This patch largely reverts the commit "base: lay groundwork for
base-linux caps change" because the use of 'epoll' instead of 'select'
alleviated the need to allocate large FD sets, which motivated the
introduction of the 'Native_context' hook.
Related to issue #3581
The sandbox library supports the forwarding of session requests from the
outside to one of the hosted children according to a policy. This patch
introduces the distinction between two cases, which previously triggered
the denial of the session request.
- There exists no matching policy for the requested session
- There exists a matching policy but the referred server child
does not exist (yet)
Whereas the proper response to the first case is the denial of the
request, the second case can occur in situation where a dynamic init is
used to implement a staged startup, for example via the deploy
mechanism. In such cases, a policy may exist as a static rule while the
server has not been started yet. This patch changes the behavior such
that such requests are stalled.
The patch is accompanied with test cases for exercising both situations.
Fixes#3733
