- build debug version of core and bootstrap found under
_var/run/<runscript>.core_ (.bootstrap). This is a regression when
switching from object to archive library linkage of core.

Instruct bender to enable Intel HWP on supported CPUs unconditionally
to gain more insight by using the feature most prominently in Sculpt.
Fixes#4040.
With this patch, the build directory's CCACHE configuration is applied
to the building of depot archives when using the --depot-auto-update
feature.
Note that this is effective only when resetting the hash files before
building so that each depot-auto-update results in the same-named
versions. Otherwise, the include paths (that include the version name as
part of the path) make cache hits impossible.
Issue #4004
This commit complements issue #4004 with support for the depot/create
tool. If CCACHE=1 is specified at the command line, the build directory
for building a binary archive is configured with 'CCACHE := yes'.
Do not link base and core libraries into on large relocatable .o file,
which is linked later to core - causing long link times. Create an
independent library archive out of the base and core libraries that can
be linked faster.
issue #4027
- remove Spike/BBL support in favour of Qemu (>=4.2.1)
- add 'riscv_qemu' board, remove 'spike' board'
- update to privileged ISA v1.10 (from v1.9.1)
- use direct system calls for privileged core threads (they call into
the kernel and don't use mode changing system calls, i.e. 'ecall',
semantics)
- use 'OpenSBI' semtantics for SBI calls (to machine mode) instead of
BBL
issue #4012
This patch simplifies the use of ccache with the build system. Up until
now, each developer had to set up the ccache hooks manually, adjust the
PATH variable, and customize the etc/tools.conf in each build directory.
With the patch, ccache can be enabled by un-commenting a single line in
the etc/build.conf file.
Fixes#4004
This patch moves the bootstrap-link-address information from the
tool/run/boot_dir/hw file to board-specific property files that can be
accessed by using the board as key. This eliminates the need to
customize boot_dir/hw when hosting board-support in an external
repository.
Fixes#3998
This patch allows for supplementing the existing run-tool plugins with
additional plugins hosted inside a repository. E.g., it enables the run
tool to find world/tool/run/boot_dir/hw automatically.
Fixes#3993
* Remove SPEC declarations from mk/spec
* Remove all board-specific REQUIRE declaratiions left
* Replace [have_spec <board>] run-script declarations with have_board where necessary
* Remove addition of BOARD variable to SPECS in toplevel Makefile
* Move board-specific directories in base-hw out of specs
The new helper function returns a boolean value analoque to 'have_spec' if the
BOARD variable corresponds to the given value. It shall replace [have_spec <board>]
declarations in run-scripts.
Ref #3971
* Introduce 'use_arp' configuration flag at the NIC router in order to disable
requesting IP-to-MAC address resolutions via ARP for domains.
* Add automated run/nic_router_disable_arp test to the autopilot that tests
the effect of the new flag
* Document the new flag and the new test in the NIC router README
Fixes#3935
* The NIC router now considers, memorizes, and, if configured, reports
multiple DHCP option 6 entries from DHCP replies that it received as DHCP
client
* A DHCP server at the NIC router can now be configured statically with
multiple DNS server addresses to propagate
* The 'dns_server_from' attribute of the DHCP server of the NIC router now
supports the forwarding of multiple DNS server addresses
* The automated run/nic_router_dhcp test tests all the above mentioned new
functionality and reconfiguring it at runtime. The test was added to the
autopilot.
* All run scripts were adapted to fit the new NIC router configuration
interface
Fixes#3952
The CBE repository contained a lot of Genode-specific code despite the fact
that the CBE core logic is not bound to Genode in any way. Therefore the
Genode-specific CBE code is moved to the 'gems' repository to form part of
Genode mainline. The remaining CBE code becomes a port in Genode instead of
being invoked as sub-repository.
The commit combines the following work steps:
* add all files removed from CBE repository
* add CBE port files
* make all CBE libs and targets build again
* make all CBE run scripts succeed again
* make all CBE recipes build again
* make CBE autopilot succeed again
* let CBE autopilot use 'libsparcrypto' contrib dir and Genode build dir
instead of '.ci' dir in CBE contrib dir (remove '.ci' dir from CBE repo)
* let CBE autopilot always check for all ports
* make CBE autopilot directly executable
* fix license headers in all Genode CBE files
* remove unused VFS replay component
* remove unused CBE test
* remove unused external crypto
* remove unused files in run dir
* remove unused external trust anchor
* add cbe_tester test to autopilot list
* get rid of directories 'include/cbe_*' and 'include/utils'
Fixes#3937
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.
Fix#3825
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.
Ref #3825
It seems Qemu 5.0.0 no longer supports gic_version parameter.
Apparently this only worked due to some compat feature that
was dropped in Qemu 5.0.0. The replacement which works on both
old and new Qemu versions is gic-version.
Fixes#3823
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.
