- build debug version of core and bootstrap found under
_var/run/<runscript>.core_ (.bootstrap). This is a regression when
switching from object to archive library linkage of core.
fixes#4027
Instruct bender to enable Intel HWP on supported CPUs unconditionally
to gain more insight by using the feature most prominently in Sculpt.
Fixes#4040.
Do not link base and core libraries into on large relocatable .o file,
which is linked later to core - causing long link times. Create an
independent library archive out of the base and core libraries that can
be linked faster.
issue #4027
- remove Spike/BBL support in favour of Qemu (>=4.2.1)
- add 'riscv_qemu' board, remove 'spike' board'
- update to privileged ISA v1.10 (from v1.9.1)
- use direct system calls for privileged core threads (they call into
the kernel and don't use mode changing system calls, i.e. 'ecall',
semantics)
- use 'OpenSBI' semtantics for SBI calls (to machine mode) instead of
BBL
issue #4012
This patch moves the bootstrap-link-address information from the
tool/run/boot_dir/hw file to board-specific property files that can be
accessed by using the board as key. This eliminates the need to
customize boot_dir/hw when hosting board-support in an external
repository.
Fixes#3998
This patch allows for supplementing the existing run-tool plugins with
additional plugins hosted inside a repository. E.g., it enables the run
tool to find world/tool/run/boot_dir/hw automatically.
Fixes#3993
* Remove SPEC declarations from mk/spec
* Remove all board-specific REQUIRE declaratiions left
* Replace [have_spec <board>] run-script declarations with have_board where necessary
* Remove addition of BOARD variable to SPECS in toplevel Makefile
* Move board-specific directories in base-hw out of specs
The new helper function returns a boolean value analoque to 'have_spec' if the
BOARD variable corresponds to the given value. It shall replace [have_spec <board>]
declarations in run-scripts.
Ref #3971
The driver is faily simple and does not support fancy features like
TCP checksum offloading or vlan filtering, but it is fully capable of
running every Genode network based scenario I've tried. Its currently
known to work on virt_qemu arm platforms and x86_64.
Fix#3825
Right now the same code dealing with nic setup on qemu is duplicated
in many different run scripts. It makes it unnecesarily complex to
change the existing config or add support for new nic types. Lets move
all this common code to qemu.inc.
Ref #3825
It seems Qemu 5.0.0 no longer supports gic_version parameter.
Apparently this only worked due to some compat feature that
was dropped in Qemu 5.0.0. The replacement which works on both
old and new Qemu versions is gic-version.
Fixes#3823
This patch adds support for booting base-hw kernel on qemu-arm virt
machines. The arm_virt machine has 2GB of RAM, 2 Cortex A15 cores and
uses GICv2 interrupt controller. The arm_64_virt machine also has 2GB of
RAM, but has 4 Cortex A53 cores and uses GICv3. Both machines use PSCI
to boot additional CPU cores.
Fixes#3673
This patch fixes a regression with run/log_core introduced by
2064ffd64b nova: support multidimensional affinity space
The run tool uses a log message 'run_boot_string' to detect successful
boot as well as to detect unexpected reboots. This message should never
be logged twice and, thus, should not be part of the core_log. The patch
mentioned above moved the former run_boot_string after the core_log
initialization.
From the man page of expect:
> Both expect and interact will detect when the current process exits
> and implicitly do a close. But if you kill the process by, say, "exec
> kill $pid", you will need to explicitly call close.
Fixes#3569
