By splitting Session_policy into two classes, we make it more flexible.
Originally, the constructor accepted solely an args string, which made it
unusable for situations where we already have extracted the session
label (e.g., stored in the session meta data of a server). Now, the
extraction of the label from the args string is performed by the new
Session_label class instead, which, in turn, can be passed to the
constructor of Session_policy.
This change causes a minor API change. The following code
Session_policy policy(session_args);
Must be turned into
Session_label label(session_args);
Session_policy policy(label);
This patch overhauls the signal handling of nitpicker to clear the way
towards dynamic reconfiguration. Furthermore, it moves the
implementation of the global-keys handling and input utilities to
separate files.
Originally, the convenience utility for accessing a process
configuration came in the form of a header file. But this causes
aliasing problems if multiple compilation units access the config while
the configuration gets dynamically updated. Moving the implementation of
the accessor to the singleton object into a library solves those
problems.
This patch adds support for iterating through a const list. This allows
users of lists to be more rigid with regard to constness. Furthermore,
the patch adds the function 'List::insert_at' for inserting an element
at a specified position. By adding this function, we can remove code
duplication in nitpicker.
To enable the specification of key names in configuration files parsed
at runtime, we need the association between key-code values and their
respective names.
binary_ds cap is attempted to free up twice by
_root_dir->release(_name, _binary_ds) in ~Child de-constructor and by
Static_dataspace_info _binary_ds_info de-constructor.
This commit keeps all binary related information inside a struct which gets
freed up after all noux session book keep cleaning is done.
Issue #485
The netperf test configures the target Genode system for with
10.0.2.55/24. Also, nic_drv on base-linux uses the virtual ethernet
device 'tap0', which must be configured for the test user and network
address 10.0.2.1/24 on the test host like follows.
tunctl -t tap0 -u <user running test>
ip address add 10.0.2.1/24 dev tap
ip link set tap0 up
This patch moves the GDB commands to set a breakpoint in the 'main()'
function into a separate file that can be included from other run scripts.
Fixes#876.
If the path of a Genode source file (as extracted from the binary test
application) contains a part like '/a/b/../' where '/a' exists, but '/a/b'
does not exist anymore, 'tar' complains. With this patch, the run script
normalizes the path before calling 'tar'.
Fixes#875.
- if no affinity was set for a new thread before calling
Cpu_session::start(), the CPU session's affinity gets set for this
thread
- documentation fix: <affinity_space> -> <affinity-space>
Fixes#873.
In case there is not enough quota left to create the trace buffer
or trace policy dataspace throw Out_of_metadata explicitly instead
of rethrowing the Ram_session::Quota_exceeded exception. Now one
can catch Trace::Out_of_metadata exception in a client application.
In addition fix Allocator_guard::withdraw() checks because this
method does not throw any exceptions and a failed withdrawal goes
unoticed.
Fixes#871.
