A WRITE_ERR_WOULD_BLOCK may occur when large reports are written to a file
system because this fills up the submit queue of the packet-stream interface.

The DHCP client implementations of Ping originally is a copy of the NIC router
implementation adapted for Ping. The two versions diverged further over the
years. This issue should be solved by should merging them into a centralized
implementation. However, this commit treats only a recent issue with the
nic_uplink.run test on pbxa9 qemu but does this by re-aligning the two
implementations partially. The final merge should be done in a separate commit.
Ref #4966
* Adds a new component server/nic_uplink that forwards packets unmodified
between one Uplink session at one side and potentially multiple Nic sessions
at the other side.
* Adds a new run script nic_uplink.run that does a basic test with multiple
Nic clients on this component and adds it to the autopilot list.
* Adds a new depot recipe src/nic_uplink for this component.
* Adds a new depot recipe pkg/pc_nic for deploying the pc_nic_driver together
with a nic_uplink server. This allows for raw access to the network connected
to the Nic of the system in contrast to the commonly used routed and NAT'd
access via NIC router. That said, it enables the use of network protocols
not yet supported by the NIC router at the cost of less protection.
Ref #4966
Introduces a new class that does the clean-up if some exception is
thrown while creating the session. This reduces redundancy and overall
lines of code.

This change allows a monitored VBox instance to specify a distinct
(lower) priority to the VM session to ensure that the VMM is always
prioritized higher than the VCPUs. This is important because host
I/O at the VMM should always be able to preempt a busy guest.
Issue #4917
The memory barriers where introduced with commit "test-timeout: fix build
errors with -std=gnu++20" presumably in order to prevent GCC optimization from
removing the empty for loops the test is using because using a volatile index
variable was no longer an option.
However, the memory barriers seem to have a negative effect on the measurements
performed with the affected loops. The commit caused the timeout test to fail
at least on imx53_qsb.
This commit fixes the issue by using a simple empty for loop without volatiles
or memory barriers but protected inside a function that is compiled with
optimization disabled.
Ref #4959
Nitpicker's hover and focus reports contain an 'active' attribute, which
can be inspected for the detection of user activity, e.g., as trigger
for a screensaver or for dynamic clipboard policies.
When using the 'Event' session, the reporting code updated the reports
only on incoming events. This patch adds the periodic reporting as used
when using the old 'Input' session.
Issue #4950
While this approach still scans "holes" in the bus range, it stops
scanning at the maximum subordinate bus number reachable from the base
PCI bus at the host bridge. Startup under Qemu no longer takes about 12
seconds for scanning 256 buses.
The new monitor component at os/src/monitor is the designated successor
of the gdb_monitor. This initial version, however, implements only the
subset needed to inspect the memory of the monitored component(s).
In contrast to the gdb_monitor, the new component supports the monitoring
of multiple components, leveraging the sandbox API. It can therefore be
used as a drop-in replacement for the init component. Like the gdb_monitor,
the new monitor speaks the GDB protocol over Genode's terminal session.
But the protocol implementation does not re-use any gdbserver code,
sidestepping the complexities of POSIX.
There exist two run scripts illustrating the new component. The
os/run/monitor.run script exercises memory inspection via the 'm' command
by letting a test program monitor itself. The os/run/monitor_gdb.run
script allows for the interactive use of GDB to interact with monitored
components.
Issue #4917
Let the sandbox library disregard all unknown config sub nodes so that
supplemental information - like the monitor policy configuration - is
not interpreted as a misconfiguration ("unknown config element type ...").
Issue #4917
By default, the sandbox uses the Env::pd() as reference PD session of
the sandbox children.
However, to accomodate use cases where the interplay of the reference
PD session and the child's address space needs to be intercepted, this
patch adds a constructor that takes an interface for the controlled
access of PD intrinsics as argument.
Issue #4917
* add semaphore command to ring in order to be able to stop ring
execution before reset (Wa KabyLake)
* implement reset sequence as done by the Linux driver
* reset ring and cancel job of vgpu causing hang
* lower watchdog timeout 1000ms -> 200ms
* improve scheduling of vgpus so progress after reset is made
* improve the generation chaos a little
* tested on Skylake, Kaby Lake, Tiger Lake
issue #4916
By transforming the Device_pd into an Io_mmu::Domain, we implement an
IOMMU device that uses the kernel API for controlling the IOMMU. This
device gets special treatment and is used by default for every device
that has no <io_mmu/> child.
genodelabs/genode#4761
Every session component manages a registry of Io_mmu::Domain objects
that it creates on demand depending on the acquired devices (i.e. the
IOMMU devices referenced by the acquired devices). Via the domain
objects, a session component adds/removes the address ranges of the
allocated DMA buffers. Additionally, domain objects provide an interface
for enabling/disabling pci devices.
Domain objects get destroyed with the corresponding control device.
Moreover, on devices/policy ROM updates, domain objects of control
devices that are not referenced by any acquired device anymore get destroyed.
genodelabs/genode#4761
This allows referencing an arbitrary number of IOMMU devices within a
<devices> node, e.g.:
<device>
<io_mmu name="foobar"/>
</device>
The specified name is supposed to refer to an existing device in the
devices ROM. The platform driver automatically acquires known IOMMU
devices whenever they become available so that the device object can be
looked up from the platform-driver-owned devices.
genodelabs/genode#4761
With this change, platform-specific code is able to define factories that
acquire IOMMU devices to be used by the platform driver.
genodelabs/genode#4761
The method did not handle device changes properly. When a new policy
does not contain an owned device any more, we must consider this device
as changed and release it. Moreover, the warning messages were interchanged.
