Instead of the generic name, call the PCI driver 'pci_audio_drv'.
This is preliminary clean-up work before introducing the USB audio
driver.
Issue #3929.
Introduce the managing_system privilege for components like the
platform_driver to allow it to call system management functionality
that is reserved by kernel or special firmware, e.g., ARM Trusted Firmware.
The former RAM resource configuration attribute `constrain_phys`,
which enabled to constrain the region of physical RAM to be used,
gets replaced by the new, broader managing_system configuration
attribute of a `start` node. It gets enforced by the sandbox library.
Ref #3816
Instead of retieving the information about the underlying platform from
the configuration, check the running kernel from the platform_info. This
commit removes the undocumented "acpi" config attribute.

* Adapt run-scripts to use the right binary

Ref #3180
The zynq nic_drv also depends on hw, we therefore adapted the folder
structure for clarity. Also renamed the binary to 'zynq_nic_drv' to
prevent conflicts and to allow removing the cadence_gem spec.
Issue #3179
Switch port I/O based PCI config space access to memory-mapped IO. The
base address of the PCI configuration space is acquired by mapping the
ACPI ROM and reading the first <bdf> node. An exception is thrown if the
first <bdf> node is not for PCI domain zero or if multiple <bdf> nodes
exist. This is to reduce complexity and also because multiple PCI
domains are rare.
The PCI configuration space is accessed via I/O mem dataspace which is
created in the platform_drv root and then passed on to the PCI session,
device components and finally to the actual PCI config access instances.
The memory access code is implemented in a way to make it work with Muen
subject monitor (SM) device emulation and also general x86 targets. On
Muen, the simplified device emulation code (which works also for Linux)
always returns 0xffff in EAX to indicate a non-existing device.
Therefore, EAX is enforced in the assembly templates.
Fixes#2547
On platforms without nic or audio driver support, the corresponding
functions to return the correct names should return a meaningful
name instead of an empty list. Otherwise, in an erroneous run-script
that calls those functions to append names to the boot modules
the whole 'bin' directory is appended instead, which leads to big
image files or errors when linking the boot modules to core.
Normally, the platform driver helpers adapt the global run variables directly
via append. But the introduction of a more elegant run script style, that
incorporates dependent strings inline may be a good idea. Thus, we need the
backends of the helpers available as functions that return their string rather
than appending it.
The old interface still exists and uses the new interface as backend.
Ref #2193
This function returns the information whether the used platform relies
on USB HID for interactive scenarios by default as is the case for most
ARM platforms. In contrast, for x86 the USB driver can be omitted because
we can use the PS/2 driver (that is readily available in repos/os/).
The init component used to create the CPU/RAM/PD/ROM sessions (the child
environment) for its children by issuing session requests to its parent,
which is typically core. This policy was hard-wired. This patch enables
the routing of the environment sessions of the children of init
according to the configured routing policy.
Because there is no hard-wired policy regarding the environment sessions
anymore, routes to respective services must be explicitly declared in
the init configuration. For this reason, the patch adjusts several run
scripts in this respect.
This patch removes the outdated '<if-args>' special handling of session
labels. The '<if-args>' feature will eventually be removed completely
(ref #2250)
Issue #2197
Issue #2215
Issue #2233
Issue #2250
This patch unconditionally applies the labeling of sessions and thereby
removes the most common use case of 'Child_policy::filter_session_args'.
Furthermore, the patch removes an ambiguity of the session labels of
sessions created by the parent of behalf of its child, e.g., the PD
session created as part of 'Child' now has the label "<child-name>"
whereas an unlabeled PD-session request originating from the child
has the label "<child-name> -> ". This way, the routing-policy of
'Child_policy::resolve_session_request' can differentiate both cases.
As a consequence, the stricter labeling must now be considered wherever
a precise label was specified as a key for a session route or a server-
side policy selection. The simplest way to adapt those cases is to use a
'label_prefix' instead of the 'label' attribute. Alternatively, the
'label' attribute may used by appending " -> " (note the whitespace).
Fixes#2171
- platform_drv announces a separate "Acpi" session
- platform_drv waits for ROM "system" to change state to "acpi_ready"
- acpica waits for "Acpi" announcement
- acpica uses the platform driver via "Acpi" to reconfigure PCI devices
- acpica changes "system" state to "acpi_ready" after it ready with initialization
- platform_drv reacts on "system" state change to "acpi_ready" by announcing "Platform" session
- drivers start to operate as usual
Issue #2009
Evaluate fadt xml node in report from acpi_drv. If the io ports in the range
of 0xcf8+4 are necessary for the reset than the platform driver will
react on the 'system' state 'reset' and reboot.
Issue #1962
Enable the ACPI functionality in the platform_drv on hw_x86_64_muen and
provide a simple generated XML report as ROM session in order to make
the PCI configuration space available.
This is a requirement to implement support for MSI on hw_x86_64_muen.
* enable i915 driver from Linux 3.14.5
* tested for generation 5 till 8 GPUs
The driver can be configured at run-time via the config ROM. Every
connector of the graphic card can be configured separately using the
following syntax
<config>
<connector name="LVDS-11" width="1280" height="800" enabled="true"/>
</config>
Also, when enabled within the intel framebuffer driver configuration like
the following
<config buffered="yes"/>
a simple ram dataspace is propagated to the client and the driver
itselfs copies from that buffer to the framebuffer triggered via refresh
calls. This option is useful to alleviate tearing effects.
The driver distributes all available connectors of the graphic card and
their supported resolutions via a report. It looks like follows
<connectors>
<connector name="LVDS-11" connected="1">
<mode width="1280" height="800" hz="60"/>
...
</connector>
...
</connectors>
The driver distributes the report only if this is stated within its
configuration, like the following
<config>
<report connectors="yes"/>
</config>
Fix#1764
Instead of holding SPEC-variable dependent files and directories inline
within the repository structure, move them into 'spec' subdirectories
at the corresponding levels, e.g.:
repos/base/include/spec
repos/base/mk/spec
repos/base/lib/mk/spec
repos/base/src/core/spec
...
Moreover, this commit removes the 'platform' directories. That term was
used in an overloaded sense. All SPEC-relative 'platform' directories are
now named 'spec'. Other files, like for instance those related to the
kernel/architecture specific startup library, where moved from 'platform'
directories to explicit, more meaningful places like e.g.: 'src/lib/startup'.
Fix#1673
With the introducation of the Audio_in session interface it makes
sense to rename the current available audio drivers. At the moment
only the dde_bsd audio_drv supports Audio_out as well as Audio_in.
The Linux audio_drv only supports Audio_out (there is no demand for
Audio_in support currently) but is renamed nonetheless to make it
easiert to write generic run scripts.
Issue #1644.
