This commit replaces the old xray_trigger component by a new component
called global_keys_handler. For details, please refer to the issue text
and the accompanied README file.
Fixes#2554
Without this patch, usb_drv would issue a resource request when
assigning a USB device to a VM in the sculpt scenario.
Furthermore, the patch adjusts the intel_fb quota to enable it on
devices where the driver allocates the framebuffer in many 4K pieces.
This is a drivers subsystem that starts the most fundamental
(framebuffer, input, block) device drivers dynamically, depending on the
runtime-detected devices. The discovered block devices are reported
as a "block_devices" report.
This patch applies the handling of cursor keys, function keys, and page
up/down keys even if no keymap is defined. This is the case when using
the terminal with character events produced by the input filter.
Add a "writeable" policy option to the ahci_drv and part_blk Block
servers and default from writeable to ready-only. Should a policy
permit write acesss the session request argument "writeable" may still
downgrade a session to ready-only.
Fix#2469
When idle, menu_view de-schedules timer events to save processing time.
Once reactivated by a dialog update, it computes the passed time and
applies the result to the animator. However, the animation was most likely
started by the update not during the sleep. So the passed time must not
be applied to the animation in this case. Otherwise, many animation steps
are computed at once within a single visible frame.
Furthermore, the patch adjusts the REDRAW_PERIOD to 2, which is a better
value for geometric movements as opposed to mere color-blending effects
where the frame rate does not matter so much.
It also refines the nitpicker-buffer relocation in a way that extends
the buffer but does not shrink it. This lowers the interaction with
nitpicker in situations where the dialog size changes a lot.
By applying the text output to the alpha buffer in addition to the pixel
buffer, labels can now appear without the need for an underlying frame
or button.
The new widget allows one to align a child widget within a larger parent
widget by specifying the boolean attributes 'north', 'south', 'east',
and 'west'. If none is specified, the child is centered. If opposite
attributes are specified, the child is stretched.
This improves the output quality of antialiased lines onto a transparent
nitpicker buffer. For antialiased graphics operations, the initial color
leaks through. Leaking 50% gray is better than leaking black, in
particular when drawing white lines.
This patch makes the use of 'List' invisible at the 'Animator'
interface. This allows users of the utility to keep 'Animator::Items' in
a custom 'List' with no aliasing problems.
The VFS library can be used in single-threaded or multi-threaded
environments and depending on that, signals are handled by the same thread
which uses the VFS library or possibly by a different thread. If a VFS
plugin needs to block to wait for a signal, there is currently no way
which works reliably in both environments.
For this reason, this commit makes the interface of the VFS library
nonblocking, similar to the File_system session interface.
The most important changes are:
- Directories are created and opened with the 'opendir()' function and the
directory entries are read with the recently introduced 'queue_read()'
and 'complete_read()' functions.
- Symbolic links are created and opened with the 'openlink()' function and
the link target is read with the 'queue_read()' and 'complete_read()'
functions and written with the 'write()' function.
- The 'write()' function does not wait for signals anymore. This can have
the effect that data written by a VFS library user has not been
processed by a file system server yet when the library user asks for the
size of the file or closes it (both done with RPC functions at the file
system server). For this reason, a user of the VFS library should
request synchronization before calling 'stat()' or 'close()'. To make
sure that a file system server has processed all write request packets
which a client submitted before the synchronization request,
synchronization is now requested at the file system server with a
synchronization packet instead of an RPC function. Because of this
change, the synchronization interface of the VFS library is now split
into 'queue_sync()' and 'complete_sync()' functions.
Fixes#2399
The launcher.run scenario was last updated mid-may of the recently
developed cap-quota accounting (before all cap types were covered).
Hence, the quotas used in the scenario are too low. This patch adjusts
the values such that the scenario can be started on NOVA on Qemu. It
also fixes a warning about a deprecated way of configuring the
report_rom component.
Thanks to Jörg-Christian Böhme for reporting!
