libc_resolv is a {free,get}addrinfo() plugin, mainly for use with NOUX.
We prefix the original libc functions to with 'libc_' so there is no
symbol conflict with file_operations.cc.
Most of the libs are needed for DNS related stuff. Since we now
have libc_resolv they are not longer needed. Infact they will
lead to undefined symbols so we remove them alltogther as build
dependency for the libc.
In the current form, only PROT_READ is supported. This case is emulated
by copying the file content into new allocated backing store. Even
though the performance benefits of mmap-using code will not be
preserved, code that relies on mmap can be executed via the libc_noux
or libc_fs plugins, i.e. lightttpd.
As of lwip-1.4.x this is not needed anymore because lwip
now always creates a loopback device. This plug-in will
be removed in the future but for now keep it around so
we currently do not need to update the other targets that
depend on it.
Fixes#329.
The new version works fine but there is an issue with connect()
that needs the included patch:
There is no actual handling of EALREADY in lwip. It sets errno
to EALREADY when the connection was established. Unfortunatly this
is really bad because most programs expect to receive errno EISCONN
if the connection was successfully established. So this behaviour
breaks Qt4 and several noux/net packages (like lynx) because those
programs end up in an endless loop trying to connect via an already
connected socket. The longterm solution would be fixing the wrong
behaviour in lwip (there are already bug-reports on lwip's mailinglist)
but for now, it works well enough to simple change lwip's err_to_errno
table to set errno to EISCONN when the connection was established.
Required to start thread on Genode/NOVA. Without the service it fails with:
int main(): --- init created, waiting for exit condition ---
[init] timer: no route to service "CPU"
[init -> test-moon] Starting ldso ...
[init -> timer] C++ runtime: Genode::Parent::Service_denied
[init -> timer] void* abort(): abort called
Certain rpc headers are needed for compiling getaddrinfo.c. Unfortunatly
that means we have to generate _a few_ header files which we do when we
prepare the libc.
These header files need to be created before the symlinks. Also, some of
these header files depend on a patch. Therefore we apply the patches
first, generate the header files and in the end we create the symlinks.
Fixes#296.
Our FreeBSD libc based libc defines SOL_SOCKET as 0xffff. We change
lwip's definition from 0xfff to match ours. This prevents us from
converting the level when we call {g,s}etsockopt.
Fixes#292.
libcrypto provides certain optimized assembler functions which
unfortunatly are non-pic. Therefore this asm code is removed
and libcrypto is build with -DOPENSSL_NO_ASM.
Because the asm code is not needed anymore, its generation is
also removed from openssl.mk.
import-libssl.mk was also added because it is essential for building
programs which depend on libssl.
Fixes#291.
Fixes#294.
This patch implements the 'readv()' function in the libc.
A lock guard prevents the parallel execution of either or both of the
'readv()' and 'writev()' functions.
Fixes#279.
This patch implements the 'pread()' and 'pwrite()' functions in the libc.
A lock guard prevents the parallel execution of either or both functions.
Fixes#278.
Use git to get recent kernels from github. Adjust NOVA patch to compile
with recent github version. Patch and use makefile of NOVA microkernel
to avoid duplicated (and outdated) makefile in Genode
Furthermore, this patch adds support for using NOVA on x86_64. The
generic part of the syscall bindings has been moved to
'base-nova/include/nova/syscall-generic.h'. The 32/64-bit specific
parts are located at 'base-nova/include/32bit/nova/syscalls.h' and
'base-nova/include/64bit/nova/syscalls.h' respectively.
On x86_64, the run environment boots qemu using the Pulsar boot loader
because GRUB legacy does not support booting 64bit ELF executables.
In addition to the NOVA-specific changes in base-nova, this patch
rectifies compile-time warnings or build errors in the 'ports' and
'libports' repositories that are related to NOVA x86_64 (i.e., Vancouver
builds for 32bit only and needed an adaptation to NOVAs changed
bindings)
Fixes#233, fixes#234
We are using bison to generate certain files when preparing the libc.
However the yacc(1) wrapper script is used instead of calling bison
directly which does not work if bison is not installed but the original
yacc(1).
Fixes#225. Fixes#227.
