Let the NIC router provide an Uplink service besides the Nic service that it
already provided. Requests for an Uplink session towards the NIC router are
assigned to Domains using the same <policy> configuration tags that are used in
order to assign Nic session requests. The MAC addresses of Uplink session
components are _NOT_ considered during the allocation of MAC addresses for NIC
session components at the same Domain. The task of avoiding MAC address clashes
between Uplink session components and Nic session components is therefore left
to the integrator. Apart from that, Uplink session components are treated by
the NIC router like any other interface.

Instead of the generic name, call the PCI driver 'pci_audio_drv'.
This is preliminary clean-up work before introducing the USB audio
driver.
Issue #3929.
Right now the same code dealing with nic setup on qemu is duplicated
in many different run scripts. It makes it unnecesarily complex to
change the existing config or add support for new nic types. Lets move
all this common code to qemu.inc.

Introduce the managing_system privilege for components like the
platform_driver to allow it to call system management functionality
that is reserved by kernel or special firmware, e.g., ARM Trusted Firmware.
The former RAM resource configuration attribute `constrain_phys`,
which enabled to constrain the region of physical RAM to be used,
gets replaced by the new, broader managing_system configuration
attribute of a `start` node. It gets enforced by the sandbox library.
Ref #3816
This patch prevents nitpicker from requesting a framebuffer and input
session by default because the regular use of nitpicker relies on the
capture-session and event-session interfaces by now.
For supporting the nested use of nitpicker via the gui_fb component, it
is still possible to enable the traditional behavior by explicitely
setting the 'request_input' and 'request_framebuffer' config attributes
to "yes".
Issue #3812
This commit applies the transition from the "Input" session to the "Event"
session to the event-filtering mechansim. The functionality of the
input_filter is now provided by the event_filter. The event filter
requests only one "Event" session as destination for the filter result,
which is usually routed to the nitpicker GUI server. It provides an
"Event" service to which any number of event sources can connect.
The configuration of the filter chain remains almost the same. Only the
declaration of the <input> nodes is no longer needed. Instead, the
configuration must specify <policy> nodes, which define the mapping of
"Event" clients (event sources) to the inputs used in the filter chain.
The patch adjusts all uses of the nitpicker GUI server accordingly such
that the event filter reports events to nitpicker's event service
instead of having nitpicker request an "Input" session. This dissolves
the dependency of nitpicker from input drivers.
Issue #3827
This patch replaces the use of the "Framebuffer" session interface by
the new "Capture" session interface in all framebuffer drivers. Thanks
to this change, those drivers have become mere clients of the nitpicker
GUI server now, and are no longer critical for the liveliness of the GUI
server.
The patch touches the following areas:
- The actual driver components. The new versions of all drivers have
been tested on the respective hardware. Generally, the drivers
have become simpler.
- The drivers_interactive packages for various boards. The drivers
subsystem no longer provides a "Framebuffer" service but needs a
valid route to the "Capture" service provided by nitpicker.
- The driver manager of Sculpt OS.
- This patch changes the role of the test-framebuffer component from a
framebuffer client to a capture server so that drivers (capture clients)
can be directly connected to the test component without the nitpicker
server.
- Framebuffer driver no longer support the unbuffered mode.
- The fb_bench.run script is no longer very meaningful because it
interplays solely with nitpicker, not with the driver directly.
- All run scripts for graphical scenarios and the related depot
archives got adapted to the change.
Fixes#3813
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
This patch is a workaround for the missing implementation of
'Pd_session::transfer_quota' interface by the GDB monitor's PD service.
The missing implementation becomes problematic with the changes of #3750
that enabled the cap-quota accounting for core's CPU service.
In regular scenarios without the GDB monitor, the client of
'Cpu_session::create_thread' deals with Out_of_caps or Out_of_ram by
upgrading the CPU session's cap and RAM quotas. This, in turn, results
in a sequence of 'transfer_quota' operations at the parent.
Since GDB monitor implements a custom PD service, these 'transfer_quota'
calls try to transfer quota between sessions provided by core and those
provided by the GDB monitor. This does of course not work. To fix this
issue, the GDB monitor needs a major overhaul. This patch side-steps
the problem by handing Out_of_caps and Out_of_ram from the debuging
target.
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
- don't use 'qemu -serial mon:stdio' anymore as it no longer works as
expected
- use "bash -l" with [terminal] to read user's profile configuration,
e.g., PATH settings
- added missing boot modules and cap quotas
This run script is outdated and not regularly tested. In fact, the
tested mechanism (obtaining values from a '.sysctl/' directory) is
nowhere to be found, neither in noux nor the libc. The test still
returns success as it merely checks for the completion of the sequence,
not the printed results. Hence, it is not worth preserving.
Issue #3696
This run script tested the terminal VFS plugin as a new feature of noux.
In the meantime, the plugin remains as the only way for the interaction
of command-line-based applications with the terminal session. Hence,
the mechanism is now stressed by many other scenarios.
Issue #3696
- Stop refreshing if all CPUs go to sleep, also in text mode.
- Any input resets update rate to 100Hz in graphic mode, which gets
decreased step by step down to 25Hz if no input is available (looking video
without input by user).

As genode.org site is now protected by TLS and unencrypted site
is redirected to enctypted one, download URL should be modified
to reflect this change.
Without this change, wget downloads just index.html file.

Issue #3500
This patch extends the fork test with explicit checks for the cloned
content of the heap and RW segment as well as the seek position of an
open file descriptor. It adds the new libports/run/fork.run script
that exercises the fork mechanism implemented by the libc. It is based
on noux_fork.run, which tests the mechansim provided by noux. The
test program has been moved from ports to libports.

This patch enhances the noux_vim.run scenario to make it usable as a
testing ground of the terminal's and window manager's resize and
clipboard handling.
Issue #2079
The labels of clipboard ROM and clipboard report sessions of WM clients
must be consistent with the client's nitpicker label. Hence, we must
route those sessions through the window manager, analogously to the
approach taken for shape reports in #3165.
