Building the elfloader in kernel-sel4.inc has a problem with Genodes CCACHE
make variable. When issuing ...
! ./tool/depot/create mstein/bin/*/base-sel4-* CCACHE=yes
..., building the elfloader used to consume all memory of the host system and
then run into a segmentation fault:
! make[6]: *** [elfloader/elfloader.o] Segmentation fault (core dumped)
This is because the other build system invokes the CCACHE variable as a command
in front of the compiler command. If CCACHE is set to 'yes', the 'yes' command
is called and produces an endless output into some output file. The problem
can be fixed by locally re-setting the CCACHE variable for the
'make ... elfloader' command to 'ccache' (Genode CCACHE==yes) or '' (Genode
CCACHE!=yes).
Fixes#4212
The depot tool 'build_bin_archive' used to ask only whether CCACHE is empty or
not and, if it wasn't empty, the tool added 'CCACHE := yes' to the build.conf
of the temporary build dir. This caused the sub-build processes to use ccache
even when the top-level CCACHE variable was set to a bogus value.
Also adds documentation of the CCACHE variable to the help message of the
'build' and 'build_bin_archive' tool.
Ref #4212
Adds try-catch-statement with diagnostic errors in Dhcp_server::free_ip in
order to guard against exceptions from the underlying bit allocator. These
exceptions should never happen given that the router is programmed correctly
and always feeds Dhcp_server::free_ip with sane arguments (which it should).
However, should this not be the case, we can assume that the failed IP freeing
indicates that the IP isn't allocated anyway and it's fine to continue using
the router. Furthermore, IP allocations are a mere client service and not
relevant for the integrity or safety of the router.
Ref #4200
When Interface::handle_config_3 (third step of applying a new configuration to
interfaces) tried to detach the interface from the current IP config because
the old and new IP config differed, it did so using the new domain. The former
steps of the reconfiguration already installed the new domain reference at the
interface. Therefore, also the DHCP server of the new domain was used. This,
however caused uncaught exceptions because detaching from an IP config
includes dissolving all DHCP allocations. This dissolving of DHCP allocations
now operated on a DHCP server (the one of the new domain) that wasn't related
to the allocations and, in the worst case, caused an uncaught exception
because the IPs were out of its range.
That said, this commit ensures that detaching an interface from an IP config
is always done on the domain from which the IP config originated. Normally,
this is the domain the interface is attached to. But in the case of
Interface::handle_config_3, it is another - the former domain the interface
was attached to.
The commit also adapts the nic_router_dhcp_* tests in a way that they
reconfigure the router in a way that would trigger the uncaught exception
without the fix.
Fixes#4200
Introduce two new cache maintainance functions:
* cache_clean_invalidate_data
* cache_invalidate_data
used to flush or invalidate data-cache lines.
Both functions are typically empty, accept for the ARM architecture.
The commit provides implementations for the base-hw kernel, and Fiasco.OC.
Fixes#4207
The implementation conflicted with the implicit declaration of bzero:
.../repos/dde_bsd/src/lib/audio/mem.cc: In function ‘void bzero(void*, size_t)’:
.../repos/dde_bsd/src/lib/audio/mem.cc:377:2: warning: ‘nonnull’ argument ‘b’ compared to NULL [-Wnonnull-compare]
Adapts Dir_file_system::open_composite_dirs in a way that it returns "success"
when the leaf node of the path is an empty directory but "lookup failed", as
usual, if one of the other directories on the way to the leaf node is empty.
I couldn't find a technical reason why we used to return "lookup failed" when
only the leaf node was empty.
The commit also adds a test for en empty root directory and empty
sub-directories to the fs_query run script.
Fixes#4198
The fs_query component used to exit with an uncaught exception if a queried
directory didn't exist. Now, fs_query will catch this event and simply skip the
affected query, thereby indicating to the user the inexistence of the
queried directory.

This patch adjusts the 'extract_initcall_order' utility to the changed
initcall symbol syntax introduced in Linux by the following commit:
https://github.com/torvalds/linux/commit/a8cccdd9
It uses an additional sed step to strip away the kmod prefix,
__COUNTER__, and __LINE__ information so that the symbol names match
those of earlier kernel versions.
Issue #4188
This patch enables the tool/dde_linux/create_dummies tool to operate on
a out-of-tree build directory. The Linux source tree is determined by
examining the build directory's Makefile.
Issue #4188
- Patch the XHCI model in order to handle frame wrapping correctly. For
this adjust 'mfindex_kick' to the correct period (same, before, or after
'mfindex').
- Flush EP when it is stopped, this causes all pending packets for the EP
to be acked. Correct counting of packets in flight.
- Add BEI patch by Josef.
issue #4196
- API packages for: libusb, libuvc, and libyuv
- Source packages for: API packages + USB webcam app
- Meta package for USB webcam
- Raw package for USB webcam configuration
issue #4196
Unfortunately, our current implementation of 'wmb()' doesn't seem to do what we
want it to do. On base-hw + imx6q_sabrelite, the write of bdp->cbd_sc seems to
get re-ordered after the write to txq->bd.reg_desc_active in the transmission
path of the contrib code. Due to this, the transmission of the packet is only
triggered the next time a packet is sent. However, we only quick-fix it by
enforcing the execution of the write with a volatile global read as we will
soon update the FEC NIC port with a new DDE approach anyway.
Fixes#4010
In ROM mode the global CapsLock state is controlled by the capslock ROM
by virtual KEY_CAPSLOCK events.
Guests are easily confused by spurious KEY_CAPSLOCK input events in
caps="rom" mode. These spurious events may reach the VMM if KEY_CAPSLOCK
is not pressed as first key in a combination and, therefore, is not
filtered as global key. We filter KEY_CAPSLOCK in ROM mode in the VMM
explicitly, but let it pass in non-ROM mode.
Per default RAW mode is used and CapsLock key events are sent unfiltered
to the guest.
Enable watching files via the inotify interface of the Linux Kernel.
Delivery of watches to components is staggered in order to prevent an
overflow of the ACK queue in cases when a lot of changes are made to the
file system from the Linux side.
