Since the router MAC is allocated like the donwlink MACs it can't happen
anymore that these MACs clash, for instance due to nested routers. Thus,
the range of the MAC allocators of nested routers must not be exclusive
anymore which deprecates the 'mac_first' configuration attribute.
Issue #2795
Allocate a virtual MAC address at runtime that is used as router
Ethernet-identity for all downlink domains. This makes the downlink
domains independent from the uplink session.
Issue #2795
The old MAC allocator had several drawbacks:
* the address base was a public static that could and must have been written
directly from outside the class
* the in-use-flag array was based on unsigned values consuming 4 bytes each
for only one bit of information
* it was a public header that we actually don't want to expose to all
components but only to the few networking components
* it used the not-so-safe bit notation for integer members of GCC
The new version fixes all these drawbacks.
Issue #2795
Instead of handing over the maximum available size to the packet data
accessors, hand over a size guard that keeps track of the packets
boundaries.
This commit also moves the size-guard utilitiy header of Ping and NIC
Router to the include/net directory making it a part of the net library.
It applies the new approach to all net-lib users in the basic repositories.
Ping looses its configurability regarding the ICMP data size as this would
require an additional method in the size guard which would be used only by
Ping.
The size guard was also re-worked to fit the fact that a packet can
bring a tail as well as a header (Ethernet).
Issue #2788
For now it is enough to differentiate the most commonly used file
system on Genode, e.g. Ext2 for the Genode partition and FAT32 for
(U)EFI partitions.
Issue #2803.
The component will now always try to parse the MBR as well as the GPT
(in this order). It will bail out if both are considered valid, using
GPT/MBR hybrid tables is not supported.
Fixes#2803.
The Ethernet payload may be followed by padding of variable length and
the FCS (Frame Check Sequence). Thus, we should consider the value
"Ethernet-frame size minus Ethernet-header size" to be only the maximum
size of the encapsulated IP packet. But until now, we considered it to
be also the actual size of the encapsulated IP packet. This commit fixes
the problem for all affected components of the Genode base-repository.
Fixes#2775
This reduces the redundant implementations of checksum calculation to
one generic implementation, makes the checksum interface conform over
all protocols, and brings performance optimizations. For instance,
the checksum is now calculated directly in big endian which saves us
most of the previously done byte-re-ordering.
Issue #2775
Replace packet method 'T *data' by the new methods 'T &reinterpret_data'
for parsing or modifying existing sub-protocol packets and 'T
&construct_at_data' for composing a new sub-protocol packet. This has
the advantage that, when composing a new packet, the default constructor
that zero-fills the packet is always called first.
Fixes#2751
This commit changes the 'Input::Event' type to be more safe and to
deliver symbolic character information along with press events.
Issue #2761Fixes#2786
On the Raspberry PI, the 2 seconds of round time in the polling test
were not sufficient to reach the goal of at least 1000 successful polls.
Thus, the commit sets the round time to 2.5 seconds which doesn't hurt to
much but allows the RPI to just make it.
Fixes#2779
This patch largely reverts the feature of selecting parts of input nodes
from within the output node (as originally introduced by commit
7263cae5a18b4f1f2293d031f9bafcf05ba51146). The selection of content
should be consistently performed by input nodes instead. The principle
ability of copying input nodes verbatim into the output stays available.
Issue #2691
The new 'attribute' and 'value' attributes of input nodes
can be used to select input sub nodes that match the presence and value
of the specified attribute.
Issue #2691
This patch replaces the terminal's formerly built-in fonts with the new
VFS-based font handling.
To avoid the copying of the terminal's font configuration across run
scripts, this patch adds the new terminal/pkg runtime package, which
includes everything needed for instantiating a terminal: the actual
terminal component, the library dependencies (vfs_ttf, which in turn
depends on the libc), a font (bitstream-vera), and a reasonable default
configuration.
Fixes#2758
The 'stat' method is called for all paths, not just the specific file
system node of the ROM module. The ROM update is needed only in the
latter case.
Otherwise, when always updating the ROM on stat, stat calls on the VFS
become very expensive in the presence of a mounted ROM module if the ROM
is obtained from fs_rom (which re-watches the file and all its
individual path elements whenever the 'update' RPC function is called).
Reduce the size and forward compatibility of VFS file-system
constructors by passing an object holding accessors for 'Genode::Env',
'Genode::Allocator', response handlers, and the root file-system.
Fix#2742
When working with GPIO interrupts on i.MX6SX for Ethernet PHYs
it became obvious that the GPIO driver repeatedly receives interrupts
for the same event, because it acknowledges the interrupt before a
client has handled the event.
Ref #2750
This driver component provides support for using consumer NVMe storage
devices, i.e. it omits name space managment and will always use the
first name space, on Genode. For now it defaults to a reasonable low
configuration:
- 1 I/O queue (completion/submission tuple)
- 128 entries in the I/O queue
- 4096 as the only I/O transaction memory page size
Fixes#2747.
