Issue #4596
This style is used by the upcoming phone version of Sculpt for GUI
elements that are supposed to stand out a little bit more than the
regular frame style.
This patch enhances menu_view with the optional configuration attributes
'opaque' and 'background'. Setting 'opaque' to "yes" suppresses the use
of the alpha channel at the GUI session. This improves the drawing
performance by 20% on the PinePhone. Since the menu_view uses the
gems/gui_buffer.h utility, the 'Gui_buffer' received a new 'Alpha'
argument at construction time.
The 'background' attribute can be specified to define the reset color of
the GUI buffer. It alleviates the need to create a frame widget for the
top level.
The patch also switches the optimization level for compiling menu_view
to -O3, which increases the drawing performance on the PinePhone by 30%.
Fixes#4592
This change increases the quota to allow the use of bigger fonts, and
tweaks the style such that the keyboard gets a decent appearance on the
PinePhone's 1440x720 display.
This patch adds principle support for using a USB-net modem as
mobile-data uplink. The change is motivated by the upcoming phone
manager for the PinePhone where the modem serves as the primary network
uplink. For the regular PC version of Sculpt, the feature is not needed
(hence remains disabled) because USB net can be deployed from a package
as described in:
https://genodians.org/jschlatow/2021-07-21-mobile-network
The patch also renames the "Local" network option to "Disconnected" to
be more intuitive.
By decoupling the network dialog's menu view from the 'Network' class,
we become able to host the network dialog in the same menu view instance
as other dialogs.
This patch allows the sculpt manager hosted in the leitzentrale
subsystem to observe the toggling between the runtime and the
administrative GUI. This enables alternatives to the use of the
gui_fader for switching between both views. In particular, the
upcoming phone_manager toggles the visibility of its own GUI
depending on the leitzentrale state.
In a Sculpt system based on the upcoming phone_manager, the event filter
obtains its static configuration from /config/managed/event_filter.
Without the requirement for changes at runtime, there is no need to
have the phone_manager in the loop after all.
Without this patch however, this file was always initialized with the
template gems/sculpt/event_filter/default, which was presumably used
only at boot time until the sculpt manager has produced the first
generated event-filter configuration.
This patch applies the choice of optional configs - i.e., a custom
event_filter config - to both the config/ and the initial content of
config/managed/. So in cases where the /config/managed/event_filter
remains entirely static, the latter properly reflects the choosen
variant.
By using the new functions provided by the base API, this patch removes
the dependency of several components from include/decorator/xml_utils.h.
Issue #4584
The NIC router used to send an ICMP "Destination Unreachable" packet as
response to every unroutable IPv4 packet. However, RFC 1812 section 4.3.2.7
defines certain properties that must be fullfilled by an incoming packet in
order to be answered with this type of ICMP. One requirement is that the packet
is no IPv4 multicast.
This commit prevents sending the mentioned ICMP response for unroutable IPv4
multicasts and instead drops them silently.
Fixes#4563
This patch allows the leitzentrale subsystem to control an audio driver
hosted in the drivers subsystem. An example use case is the toggling of
the speaker during phone calls.
Instead of having a generic "virt_qemu" board use "virt_qemu_<arch>" in
order to have a clean distinction between boards. Current supported
boards are "virt_qemu_arm_v7a", "virt_qemu_arm_v8a", and
"virt_qemu_riscv".

The NIC router used to add the DNS servers field to DHCP replies regardless of
whether there were DNS servers or not. As reported by a Genode user, the empty
DNS server field irritated at least Windows 10 guests (Vbox 6) that connected
to the NIC router. This resulted in Windows 10 ignoring DHCP offers from the
router with such characteristic.
With this commit adding the DNS server DHCP option is skipped if there are no
DNS servers at the corresponding DHCP server or the domain IP config the server
shall fetch its DNS servers from.
Fixes#4581
Skip SET_CONFIGURATION requests if the device already has the selected
config as active config. This workaround prevents issues with Linux
guests in VirtualBox and SDC-reader passthrough.
Thanks to Peter for the patch.
The commit introduces means to mark a task for destruction that is

Under high TX load, 'irq_handler()' is rarely executed but packets
are still received since 'netdev_poll()' is called for every TX packet.
'netdev_poll()' not only handles completed transmissions but also
puts the IO buffers of received packets into the RX queue and refills the RX
ring by allocating more IO buffers. However, the IO buffers can only be freed
after they have been dequeued and passed to the 'rx_callback()'. Since
this was only done by 'irq_handler()', we exhaust the slab allocator
under high TX load.
A fix for this is to process the RX queue not only in the IRQ handler
but also when transmitting packets.
genodelabs/genode#4555
m/udelay is called with closed interrupts. Linux contrib code expects no
other task to be run respectively to be re-scheduled. usleep_range leads to
executing other tasks, which causes assertions in "spinlock taken twice" or
"unexpected preempt count" errors, seen on runtime with wifi_drv and intel_fb.
The assertion triggered with the changes by #4562.
On okl4, pistachio, sel4 the test didn't come up fast enough in order to still

In overload situations, i.e. when a sender fills up the entire buffer, we land
in situations where the sender receives an ack_avail signal, releases one
packet, allocates and sends a packet and fails to allocate a second packet.
This is especially relevant if the receiver does not batch ack_avail signals
(such as vfs_lwip). In those ping-pong scheduling scenarios, the overhead from
catching the Packet_alloc_failed exception becomes significant. In case of the
NIC router, we will land in an overload situation if the sender is faster than
the receiver. The packet buffer will be filled up at some point and the NIC
router starts to drop packets. For every dropped packet, we currently have to
catch the Packet_alloc_failed exception.
This commit adds a new method alloc_packet_attempt to Packet_stream_source that
has almost the same signature as the older alloc_packet method but returns
an Attempt<Packet_descriptor, Alloc_packet_error> object. As the method already
used the allocator back end exception-less, changes on lower levels were not
needed. Furthermore, the NIC router was modified to use the new exception-less
alloc_packet_attempt instead of alloc_packet.
Ref #4555
Replaces the former implementation of the 'find_by_ip' method at the data
structure for ARP cache entries. This method used to return a reference to the
found object and threw an exception if no matching object was found.
The new implementation doesn't return anything and doesn't throw exceptions. It
takes two lambda arguments instead. One for handling the case that a match was
found with a reference to the matching object as argument and another for
handling the case that no object matches.
This way, expensive exception handling can be avoided and object references
stay in a local scope.

According to a benchmarking series on Zynq (base-hw) and x260 (base-nova) using
test-nic_perf_router, increasing the 'max_packets_per_signal' has a significant
effect on the packet throughput. By increasing the default value from 32
to 150, we could gain a few hundred Mbit/s. Increasing the value further
does not seem to have such a strong effect, though.

The checksums for forwarded/routed UDP, TCP and ICMP, used to be always
re-calculated from scratch in the NIC router although the router changes only
a few packet fields. This commit replaces the old approach whereever sensible
with an algorithm for incremental checksum updates suggested in RFC 1071.
The goal is to improve router performance.

We used to use 'unsigned long' for the accumulating variable when calculating
internet checksums. However, 'signed long' is more in accordance with RFC 1071
and will allow us to share the same back end for folding, once we implement
incremental updating of internet checksums.

When sending an ICMP ECHO reply, the router merely swaps SRC and DST of the
IPv4 header of the corresponding request and these changes cancel each other
out in checksum calculation. Therefore, with this commit, the router skips
updating the IPv4 checksum in this context.

The router used to update IPv4 checksums when routing via an <ip> rule
despite the fact that it doesn't change any IPv4 header fields in this case.
Ref #4555
The NIC router used to update IPv4 and layer 4 checksums of a packet for each
interface it was sent to (say, all interfaces of the domain the packet was
routed to). However, there was and is no technical reason for not doing it
only once and then iterating over the interfaces with the already updated
packet. This is what this commit does in an intent to raise the router's
performance.
Ref #4555
The NIC router uses the timer for relatively coarse-grained timeouts.
It therefore suffices to update and store the current time when the NIC router
is signalled and use the cached time instead. This prevents frequent
syscalls or RPCs when acquiring the current time for every packet.
genodelabs/genode#4555
The link dissolve timeout is updated for every packet, which leads to
trigger_once() RPCs that only marginally change the scheduled timeout but
significantly slow down the packet throughput.
genodelabs/genode#4555
The wakeup call only emits a single signal as it assumed both are
handled by the same signal handler. However, the original implementation
did not reset the wakeup_needed variable properly.
genodelabs/genode#4555
When using signal batching, ack_avail and packet_avail should always
be emitted and preferred over ready_to_submit and ready_to_ack.
A signal receiver might decide to not register the ready_to_* signals when it
handles congestion by dropping packets. The Nic router is an example of
such a signal receiver.
