Per Affinity::Location a system control cap can be requested. The capability
provides an RPC interface to request and set Cpu_state, as provided by the
former Pd::managing_system(Cpu_state) method. Invocation of those system
control capabilities then *can* (see below) be executed on the desired CPU
as described by Affinity::Location.
The system control cap will be invalid for kernels that don't support
system_control/managing_system functionality at all.
The system control cap will be ever by the same, e.g. ignoring the
Affinity::Location parameter, if the used kernel doesn't support or doesn't
require the feature to execute the system control per CPU.
The commit is a preparation step to add guarded and selective x86 MSR
access per CPU.
Fixes#5009
Internally libyuv uses malloc & free for short time dynamic memory
allocation during image transformation. The converted images are
such large, that the Libc allocator will create and destroy new Genode
dataspace per image. In time sensitive code paths, the overhead can be
noticeable by the caller of the image transformation.
The patch adds the option to register callbacks in the libyuv library to
implement the image allocation by users of the library. They may implement
caching strategies to avoid the overhead, e.g. as seen with qemu-usb and
the webcam model.
and not before. On Windows guest with more than 1 vCPU, the packets
seem to arrive and/or seem to be handled too late in the Webcam model.
An intermediate state, to due the late packet, has been used to decide to
close the Capture session too early.
Dynamically loading the `compat-libc` breaks `fork(2)` on Genode.
Switch `compat-libc` to a special api package that provides a source
file for statically linking the library, analogous to the `blit`
package. This also requires a quirk in Goa but should prevent breaking
`fork()` and removes the runtime and archive dependencies for Rust
packages using `compat-libc`.

Implement FBSD_1.0 versions of libc functions ('stat', 'fstat'). The
functions are versioned with @FBSD_1.0, and therefore, will not clash
with libc during linking. However, to be called by our dynamic linker,
the library must be before libc in the NEEDED section of the binary
using it. This requires the lib to be in front of libc in the LIBS
variable. The library currently will call libc 'stat' and 'fstat' by
looking up the symbols via 'dlsym'.

* Removes the <event> tag from all test package runtime files and replaces the
contained <timeout> and <log> sub-tags with the new tags <succeed> and
<fail>. If a <succeed> or <fail> tag has a content, it defines a log pattern
that should be recognized and render the test failed or successful. If a
<succeed> or <fail> tag has an attribute after_seconds that is not set to 0,
it defines a timeout after which the test should be rendered failed or
successful.
* Adapts the Depot Autopilot to support the new syntax in the test-package
runtime files. However, for now, the Depot Autopilot is kept compatible to
the old syntax as well. If the <events> tag is present, it is prioritized
over the new syntax.
Fixes#4922
Several nightly network-related tests fail currently on sel4/pc because the
new e1000 NIC driver requires more capabilities. The "drivers nic" package
was already adapted to the new requirement but some tests fail to provide
enough caps to the corresponding sub system. This commit tries to fix all
remaining tests.

The main user of libsparkcrypto in the past was the CBE block encryption
ecosystem. However, the CBE was replaced with the Tresor block encryption that
uses libcrypto instead.

In case the meta data (or more) got zeroed upon 'free', print error
message. The offset in the meta data can never be zero. This does not
help on other memory corruptions, but at least gives a hint in the too
much zeroed out case.

GPU device access is hard to achieve in run scripts and even harder to
implement generic.
Use the "Modularize Sculpt OS image creation"
(commit b723b11b30)
approach instead.
issue #4900
The XHCI model reserves 0x4000 of IO memory but uses only 0x530.
Implement read (0) and write (nop) for these regions as real hardware
does.
