With this patch, the thread context area RM session gets created at
program startup to have the thread context area's virtual address range
reserved right from the beginning.
Fixes#734.
This patch implies that all Genode processes try to create an RM
session. So a route to the RM service must be present even for processes
that have only a single thread. Hence, the patch contains an update of
affected components.
lwIP only supports the 'AF_INET' domain, but doesn't check the 'domain'
argument of the 'lwip_socket()' function.
This patch avoids an error message from lwIP when the Arora browser
tries to connect a socket of the 'AF_LOCAL' domain.
Fixes#732.
The parent-service registry is populated on demand by the
'Loader::Child' whenever a prior unknown service is requested. Since the
number of parent services is limited, we expect the registry to settle
after a while. However, each loader session has a private instance of
a parent-service registry. So when creating and destroying loader
sessions, parent registries will be populated again and again. We
have to make sure to discard the entries along with the destruction
of a loader session to avoid the leakage of memory.
Issue #717
Try to free the metadata of a thread only if created by Genode. The code
did not cause any actual problems. I just stumbled over the inconsistency
while reviewing the code.
Enable optinal support for double buffering in the i.MX53 framebuffer
driver. This prevents flickering in certain scenarios, where applications
directly render in the framebuffer dataspace given by the driver.
* Simplify IPU register definitions using templates
* Distinguish between i.MX53 QSB and SMD board in driver
* Support IPU specific overlay mechanism by framebuffer session extension
With this patch, the 'libc_lwip_nic_dhcp' plugin provides the DNS server
address acquired by lwIP via DHCP in the file '/etc/resolv.conf'.
This feature can be disabled from the config file:
<libc resolv="no" />
The static network interface configuration attributes are now also a part
of the '<libc>' config node:
<libc ip_addr="..." netmask="..." gateway="..." />
Fixes#731.
This commit removes an endless loop, that occurred when the sd_card driver
called usleep, or msleep on its Timer_delayer object. Fixes#705
Also fixes the same problem for the Omap4 GPIO driver.
'Gratuitous ARP' broadcast messages are used to announce newly created
IP<->MAC address mappings to other hosts. nic_bridge-internal hosts
would expect a nic_bridge-internal MAC address in this message, whereas
external hosts would expect the NIC's MAC address in this message.
The simplest solution to this problem is to just drop those messages,
since they are not really necessary.
Fixes#709.
