Replace the static lock with the file descriptor lock because recursive
calls of p{read,write} would result in a deadlock when using multiple
libc-plugins at the same time.
Fixes#948.
This FUSE implementation consists of libfuse, which provides a
subset of the FUSE 2.6 API and libc_fuse, which provides support
for accessing FUSE based file system via the libc.
Fixes#942.
In addition, file-system tests will use the AHCI driver instead of the
ATAPI driver. This change side-steps certain issues with Qemu's IDE
emulation.
Fixes#942.
Since RM sessions can be used as dataspaces and dataspace sizes are
supposed to have page granularity, RM session sizes should have page
granularity, too.
Fixes#972.
Among other changes, this patch makes it possible to let Mesa render into
a user-provided buffer instead of the screen. This can be achieved with
the 'eglCreateWindowSurface()' function, which takes a buffer
description as third argument.
Fixes#974.
One of the Qt5 patches is supposed to create symbolic links, which is not
supported by GNU patch before version 2.7. Using 'git apply' to apply the
patches solves this problem.
Fixes#969.
In programs with dynamic linker, _main and thus also platform_main_bootstrap
are called twice. By now, platform_main_bootstrap tried to always access the
startup message in the UTCB of the main thread that gets overridden till the
second call.
fix#967
Since dde_linux now contains the port of the Linux IP stack available for all
Genode base-* platforms move the repository out of drivers_arm and drivers_x86
build.conf to the optional build.conf (available to all platforms).
To support components, which implement the block session's server side
rpc object, and which doesn't write data to their device backend immediately,
an additional synchronization call is needed. Thereby, clients like for
instance a file system can tell these components, when a synchronization is
required.

Issue #949
Related to issue #808 - one way to nearly double the maximum VM size for
VMs on 32bit Genode/Nova host if decreased performance is acceptable.
To ease the creation of custom virtual machine monitors on top of
NOVA, this patch moves generic utilities from vancouver resp. seoul to the
public include location 'ports/include/vmm'. As a nice side effect,
this change simplifies 'vancouver/main.cc'.
Issue #949
The platform driver is used to access the features provided by the
Videocore mboxes, i.e., power configuration and framebuffer setup. The
framebuffer driver uses the platform interface to setup a screen mode of
1024x768.
At the current stage, the USB HID and storage drivers are prinicpally
working but not stable. If interrupts are not processed fast enough,
devices will get sporadically disconnected.
The USB host-controller driver is not part of the normal Linux kernel.
For this reason, we need to download it separately. There exists a
'prepare_rpi' rule in the 'dde_linux/Makefile' to automate this process.
This patch principally allows to install symlinks to out-of-Linux tree
drivers into the contrib directory. Those files are then considered for
the 'lx_emul.h' symlink procedure. Is useful as a temporary mechanism
while developing the rpi USB driver.
