This commit introduces preliminary support for joining networks secured
via WPA3-personal. So far it was only tested with the one OpenWRT AP
configured for WPA3 (see excerpt below) where it WPA3-only as well as
WPA2/WPA3 mixed worked fine.

Issue #4861.
The supplicant is updated to the current release and is now downloaded
as archive rather than pulled from git. For the time being 'libnl' is
still kept at 3.2.25 as the current 3.7.0 release relies on more Linux
infrastructure that our integration does not provide.
Issue #4861.
This commit changes the firmware handling from requesting each
firmware file as a ROM module that is checked against a list of
known images (including their size) to requesting each file via
the local VFS of the 'wifi_drv'. This allows for using the original
probing mechanism that tries to select a matching firmware version.
The 'repos/dde_linux/src/drivers/wifi/README' file contains more
detailed information on how to configure the driver.
Issue #4861.
This function is called when decrypting RX frames on the CPU on 32 bit
platforms. Since the frames are normally decrypted by the wireless LAN
device and this code path is triggered rather infrequently the byte-wise
implementation should not pose a performance risk.
So far it was only encounter with a 7260 device when running netperf.
Issue #4861.
The bulk of the driver code now lives in the 'dde_linux' repository,
which is available on all platforms, from where it can be referenced by
other repositories.
The 'wifi_drv' binary was delegated to a generic harness that includes
all configuration and management functionality shared by all wireless
device driver components, e.g., the wpa_supplicant. The code of the
device driver emulation environment is located in 'src/lib/wifi'. It
is referenced by the platform-specific driver library that resides in
the corresponding platform repository. The runtime configuration needs
to point the driver to proper driver library.
The platform-specific library is in charge of orchestrating the contrib
source utilized by the driver as well as providing the 'source.list'
and 'dep.list' files. It must include the generic library snippet
'repos/dde_linux/lib/wifi.inc' that deals with managing the emulation
environment code.
The 'repos/dde_linux/src/drivers/wifi/README' file contains more
detailed information on how to deploy the driver.
Issue #4861.
The wifi VFS plugin is solely there to provide a hook for calling
'Lx_kit::initialize()' prior to the static ctors. As the corresponding
symbol can be resolved at run-time there is no need to add the
library as a build-time dependency.
Issue #4813
The device-tree binary is normally required on ARM-based platforms
where as on x86 it is omitted. The platform-specific DTB helper
provides a generic interface for accssing the DTB and needs to be
implemented on each platform.
Issue #4813
The SDIO connected wireless device on the PinePhone is not available
on start-up, which leads to the supplicant failing to initalize
'wlan0'. Normally the supplicant would be used in a way that handling
devices that appear at run-time happens gracefully.
Rather than supporting this behavior we defer the start-up of the
supplicant until the device could be openend successfully for now.
Issue #4813
The MAC address device report should be published once the device is
available. Since this may happen at a later time we have to check the
call.
Issue #4813
This commit introduces support for building the WLAN driver for ARM
platforms. It makes the WPA supplicant and its support libraries
available for all platforms. It also seperates the PCI parts to
accommodate platforms where other bus protocols are used.
Issue #4813
The driver was only tested with an "Atheros AR9462 Rev:2" [168c:0034]
device using the 'wifi.run' run script.
Note: for it to work MSI may not be used as otherwise interrupts do not
work. Using an IOMMU leads to the following fault:
[ 0] IOMMU:0xffffffff817eb0b0 FRR:0 FR:0x22 BDF:4:0:0 FI:0xb0000000000000 (0)
Issue #4813
This commit updates the used firmware images for the iwlwifi device
to latest available ones (supported by the current 6.1.x driver).
It also removes old firmware images that by now are not used anymore.
Fixes#4807.
Implement udelay for all architectures within common lx_emul code,
remove driver-specific version.
Always do busy looping in udelay and use cpu_relax()
like the original Linux code. Thereby, we profit from architecture specific
instructions (cpu cool down), and jiffies are updated if irqs are on.
Ref genodelabs/genode#4778
There are rare use-cases where cpu_relax is used inside a busy loop
(i2c bus functions), which only will break when the jiffies counter
reaches a specific value.
Because of the cooperative scheduling done in lx_emul, no timer
interrupt will break such a loop. As a workaround, we check for
necessary jiffies updates inside cpu_relax if interrupts are enabled.
Ref genodelabs/genode#4778
Due to lacking hardware access the driver was test with one RTL8188EE
based device, namely [10ec:8179] (rev 01), only. As the access to the
PCI config space is restricted the driver loads the non power-saving
FW and the driver port is therefor only tested with that. The
accesses are documented should we choose to support them one way or
another later on.
The 'wifi.run' run script as well as Sculpt served as testing ground
where the driver worked fine so far.
Fixes#4714.
Genode build system allows to easily enable 'ccache' for builds. This
change allows to enable using 'ccache' also for build of reference
Linux kernel used during porting device drivers.
To enable 'ccache' it is enough to pass value of 'CC' variable when
executing Linux build but this build by default depends on time when it
is built which causes 'ccache' misses. To solve this issue additional
flags are passed to make build independent from time, current user and
host on which build is performed.
Issue #4718
In case of very rapid config ROM change (<300ms), the linux driver may still
be in progress of applying the previous change (e.g. switching connector on/off).
During this progress all tasks may become not runnable (waiting for IRQ/timeouts
until hardware state settles), the newest config ROM change/signal gets
dispatched, which lead to continuing the previous change request, but not
to re-starting/re-applying the new config change. To avoid this situation,
explicitly track whether a previous config change was finished and track if an
interim config change request came in. If so, re-start the lx_user
task with the newest config change.
Fixes#4721
Although we do not have the full ACPI information parsed yet, to
announce non-PCI devices derived from the ACPI tables, the device
description of the assumed devices is now integral-part of pci_decode.
Formerly, the information was gained separatedly as boot-module, whereby
we lost synchronization in between ACPI/PCI parsing, BIOS handover, and
PS/2 emulation code already acting.
Until now, requesting optional blobs such as 'iwl-debug-yoyo.bin' has
just failed silently. To support desired blobs such as PNVM firmware,
implement the loading of optional firmware while preserving the nowarn
characteristics of the function.
Issue #4663
In case the allocation fails for the largest possible connector mode,
try smaller modes. Additional add option to specify maximal resolution.
Issue #4659
Increase "assumed" internal kernel memory size based on available memory
to support allocation of framebuffer larger than 16M, which was before
hardcoded.

* Remove wrapper for legacy x86 platform API
* Move PCI configuration space quirks to corresponding driver
(pc_usb_host_drv, pc_wifi_drv, pc_intel_fb_drv)
* Adapt driver test run-scripts to changed configuration
Ref genodelabs/genode#4578
m/udelay is called with closed interrupts. Linux contrib code expects no
other task to be run respectively to be re-scheduled. usleep_range leads to
executing other tasks, which causes assertions in "spinlock taken twice" or
"unexpected preempt count" errors, seen on runtime with wifi_drv and intel_fb.
The assertion triggered with the changes by #4562.
* Move common SMP and NO_HZ_IDLE variables and functions into
generic lx_emul shadow implementations, and integrate them
into the common lx_emul import rules
* Enable SMP and NO_HZ_IDLE within virt_linux kernel configuration
* Adapt pc drivers and wireguard accordingly
* Use original Linux softirq implementation in wireguard
* Remove erroneous softirq shadow implementation

Enables symetric-multi-processor support in the Linux kernel configuration
used as base for the driver ports for PC. This is done to be compliant with
common usage of x86 drivers today.
Moreover, this commit uses the original kernel source for softirq/tasklet
implementation to get rid of the insufficient shadow implementation
in the lx_emul sources.

The test runs as lx_user task and uses several *delay and wait queue test
cases happened to be used in real ported linux drivers. The test shows
the time spent with several time sources, e.g. jiffies, rdtsc,
lx_time_counter_count etc.
Issue #4540
Use common implementation used by wifi and (not merged) audio driver.
Avoid usage of lib/delay.c since lpj and loop_for_jiffies are not calibrated
for the ported drivers as done on native Linux during boot and leads to wrong
delays for usb and intel_fb.
Issue #4540
The 'iput()' function is called from '__sock_release()' when the sock
object has no valid file object. The release function on the other hand
is called when the supplicant closes a socket.
Fixes #xxx.
The 'with_libc' call at this point is not necessary and could be
harmful as it forces the usage of the user stack for the driver.
All code depending on this distinction should only be executed
from within the pthread.
Issue #4537.
Querying the RFKILL state led to execution of the Lx_kit::scheduler by
the pthread running the wpa_supplicant. As this may not happen the
RFKILL state is now solely managed by the driver and only the cached
state is read by the supplicant.
Fixes#4537.
Make it configurable, whether on a hotplug event the current valid Genode
config for the driver will be re-evaluated. By default it will be re-evaluated.
Issue #4531
On connector unplug the overall resolution of all available active connectors
can shrink and must be considered to potentially re-create the Capture
connection with smaller resolution size. Additionally, update the documentation.
Issue #4531
acpica and the Intel display driver tries to use the Intel Opregion
simultaneously on Genode, which is not supported nor wanted for IO_MEM region as
which it is handled.
Attempts to remove the access to the region was not successful, since some
SSDT table contains ACPI AML code which is executed regularly and read/write
the Opregion.
The patch adds support to read in a copy of the Intel Opregion done by the
acpi_drv component. The copy was sufficient to make the Intel display driver
working to find and lookup the Intel VBT (video bios table) information to
setup all connectors on a Fujitsu U7411 docking station.
Fixes#4531
