The run script did not consider the routing for the environment ROM
sessions for the test-iso component. It routed all ROM sessions -
including the ones for the executable and the dynamic linker - to
fs_rom. The patch also adds the cap quota definitions required since
version 17.05 and fixes a whitespace inconsistency between the test
program and the run script.
Thanks to Steven Harp for reporting!
This is expected by hardware terminals, ie., terminal programs connected
to null-modem serial connections. Otherwise, the next line starts at the
column right after the last line.
The new version of the test exercises the combination of fs_report with
ram_fs and fs_rom as a more flexible alternative to report_rom.
It covers two corner cases that remained unaddressed by fs_rom and
ram_fs so far: First, the late installation of a ROM-update signal
handler at fs_rom right before the content of the file is modified.
Second, the case where the requested file is not present on the file
system at the creation time of the ROM session. Here, the ram_fs missed
to inform listeners for the compound directory about the later created
file.
This patch ensures that fs_rom delivers a ROM-update notification in the
case where the underlying file was changed in-between requesting the
initial ROM content and registering the signal handler.
With the introduction of the CONTENT_CHANGED notifications delivered via
the packet stream, the assumption that no more than one READ packet is
in flight at all times does no longer hold. If the fs server responds
to a CONTENT_CHANGED packet while the fs_rom expects the completion of a
read request, the '_update_dataspace' method would prematurely return,
leaving the dataspace unpopulated. This patch solves the problem by
specifically waiting for the completion of the read request.
Session_requester inherits from Dynamic_rom_session::Content_producer
which specifies the Buffer_capacity_exceeded exception which is thrown
on insufficient buffer space.
On platforms that use the PIT timer driver, 'elapsed_ms' is pretty
inprecise/unsteady (up to 3 ms deviation) for a reason that is not
clearly determined yet. On Fiasco and Fiasco.OC, that use kernel timing,
it is the same. So, on these platforms, our locally interpolated time
seems to be fine but the reference time is bad. Until this is fixed, we
raise the error tolerance for these platforms in the run script.

Appending a suffix to report filenames was behavior inherited from
fs_log, it prevents creating files where directories need to be created
later. But unlike logs, only a subset of the hierarchy will report and
those that do append a component-local label, so the risk of collision
is low.
By removing the suffix fs_rom can serve reports back as ROM just as
report_rom does.

In the timeout framework, we maintain a translation factor value to
translate between time and timestamps. To raise precision we scale-up
the factor when we calculate it and scale-down the result of its
appliance later again. This up and down scaling is achieved through
left and right shifting. Until now, the shift width was statically
choosen. However, some platforms need a big shift width and others a
smaller one. The one static shift width couldn't cover all platforms
which caused overflows or precision problems.
Now, the shift width is choosen optimally for the actual translation
factor each time it gets re-calculated. This way, we can take care that
the shift always renders the best precision level without the risk for
overflows.

The result-buffer related members of the fast polling test are
the same for each buffered result type. Thus, we can make the
code easier by providing them through a struct.

This patch increases init's preserved RAM and capability quota to
account for a current limitation of init with respect to the creation of
sessions to parent services:
In contrast to regular routed services, sessions to parent services are
created via 'Env::session'. The implementation of 'Env::session'
automatically upgrades session quotas on demand, which is the desired
behavior for regular 'Connection' objects. However, for sessions
established on the behalf of init's children, we would need to reflect
the error condition to the child instead of resolving it locally within
init (by subsidizing the session with init's quota). This patch leaves
this issue unresolved but fixes the symptom for the bomb test. It is
meant as an interim solution until the handling of parent sessions is
revised.
On QEMU, NOVA uses the pretty unstable TSC emulation as primary time
source. Thus, timeouts do not trigger with the common precision (< 50
ms). Use an error tolerance of 200 ms for this platform constellation.

Apparently this construct leads to a compiler errors like
error: second operand to the conditional operator is of type ‘void’, but
the third operand is neither a throw-expression nor of type ‘void’
The fast polling test uses one timer session for raw 'elapsed_ms' calls
and another one for potentially interpolated 'curr_time' calls. It then
compares the two results against each other. However, until now, the
test did not consider that the duration of the session construction may
create a remarkable shift between the local times of the two sessions.
This shift is now determined and compensated before doing any
comparison.
Ref #2400
The multiple-handlers test was checking if handlers at one signal were
activated in a fair manner. But on Qemu, the error tolerance of one was
too small in rare cases (2 of 100 runs). However, having multiple
handlers for the same signal context can be considered deprecated
anyway. With the recommended Signal_handler wrapper for signal sessions,
you can't use this feature. Thus, we removed the multiple-handlers test.
Fixes#2450
