The depot_remove component can delete PKG archives with
automatically resolving dependencies and deleting archives that are not
required on the system anymore.

If this file is called from a Makefile via
! $(shell <path>/tool/ports/current qt5-host)
'shell' will return
"Entering directory '' <path-to-libc> Leaving directory '' Stop.",
and thus, producing multiple targets in the 'tool_chain_qt5' case.

The new monitor component at os/src/monitor is the designated successor
of the gdb_monitor. This initial version, however, implements only the
subset needed to inspect the memory of the monitored component(s).
In contrast to the gdb_monitor, the new component supports the monitoring
of multiple components, leveraging the sandbox API. It can therefore be
used as a drop-in replacement for the init component. Like the gdb_monitor,
the new monitor speaks the GDB protocol over Genode's terminal session.
But the protocol implementation does not re-use any gdbserver code,
sidestepping the complexities of POSIX.
There exist two run scripts illustrating the new component. The
os/run/monitor.run script exercises memory inspection via the 'm' command
by letting a test program monitor itself. The os/run/monitor_gdb.run
script allows for the interactive use of GDB to interact with monitored
components.
Issue #4917
With the update to sel4 and the gcc 12, assembly instructions are generated
and used, like POPCNT. The instruction is available on our native hardware,
but not emulated by the default cpu model necessarily, which leads to
undefined opcode exceptions (Qemu 4.2.1 && seL4). Additionally, the features
of the default Qemu cpu model may vary between Qemu releases and makes it
harder to correlate effects.
"-cpu phenom" does not support all CPU instructions necessary with
gcc 12 toolchain update issuing more SSSE3, e.g. pshufb.
Additionally, remove good/bad Qemu version check of outdated versions.
Issue genodelabs/genode-world#329
Downloading non-existent archives from 'depot.genode.org' leads to
files in the 'public' directory containing the 404 error website
delivered by the HTTP server. Specifying the '--fail' option results
in curl generating an exit-code that leads to the appropriate action
by the tool, e.g.:
Error: failed to download 'https://depot.genode.org/user/pkg/x/version.tar.xz'
Issue #4865.
If GPG signing is aborted, e.g., by pressing CTRL-C, an empty .sig file
remained in PUBLIC_DIR because the file was created by the Bash
redirection. By using '--output $@', gpg maintains the .sig file.
If a content.mk file wrongly refers to a non-existing directory in a
call of the 'port_dir' function, the 'content_env_missing_ports.mk' gets
stuck while invoking 'cat' without argument, which makes such mistakes
difficult to diagnose. This patch adds a sanity check for the existence
of the port hash file at the specified location before attempting to
'cat' the hash-file content.
By default, bender will not report any serial findings anymore, if not
explicitly asked for with the 'serial' option. Without this option, an
invalid ioport is reported, so that neither the kernel nor Genode core
will make serial output.
This patch equips the publish tool to handle system images.
System images reside at <depot-user/image/. The directory contains an
index file that contains the meta information of the available images
in XML form, e.g.,
<index>
<image name="sculpt-pinephone-2023-01-19" board="pinephone">
<info text="initial version"/>
</image>
</index>
To publish a new version of the index:
./tool/depot/publish <depot-user>/image/index
Each system image comes in two forms, a bootable disk image and an
archive of the boot directory. The bootable disk image can be used to
install a new system from scratch by copying the image directly ot a
block device. It contains raw block data. The archive of the boot
directory contains the content needed for an on-target system update to
this version. Within the depot, this archive a directory - named after
the image - that contains the designated content of the boot directory
on target. Depending on the board, it may contain only a single file
loaded by the boot loader (e.g., uImage), or several boot modules, or
even the boot-loader configuration.
To publish both forms:
./tool/depot/publish <depot-user>/image/<image-name>
This results in the following - accompanied by their respective .sig
files - in the public directory:
<depot-user>/image/<image-name>.img.gz (disk image)
<depot-user>/image/<image-name>.tar.xz (boot archive)
<depot-user>/image/<image-name>.zip (disk image)
The .zip file contains the .img file. It is provided for users who
download the image on a system with no support for .gz.

This patch adjusts the run/image/disk plugin to search for resize2fs in
/usr/sbin, which is not included in the PATH variable on Debian by
default.
Issue #4746
The argument is superfluous because only run/image/uboot evaluated it
anyway, and the argument is always boot/image.elf. With this change, the
official semantics of run_image become: "replace the boot/image.elf file
by platform-specific file(s) at boot/ that can actually be booted".
Issue #4730
The semantic of .NOPARALLEL has changed in GNU Make 4.4
Quote:
New feature: .NOTPARALLEL accepts prerequisites If the .NOTPARALLEL
special target has prerequisites then all prerequisites of those targets
will be run serially (as if .WAIT was specified between each
prerequisite).
This means that only prerequisites are made sequential. Before
everything within a Makefile would be done in sequential order.
Therefore, we had to add the *.hash target (appears multiple times) to
the .NOPARALLEL prerequisites.

This networking scenario is useful for analysing and optimizing the
interplay of the VFS, libc, TCP/IP, and the NIC router. It downloads a
file via fetchurl from lighttpd, both of which are hosted on a virtual
network.
Issue #4697
Both modules were quite similar except the the name of the FIT image
(image.itb) and the mkimage command line. FIT images are now produced by
the following RUN_OPT.
RUN_OPT += --include image/uboot --image-uboot-fit
Issue #4693
By making the use of gzip's '--best' option configurable and disabling it
by default, this patch noticably reduces the built-test cycle from 15 to
10 seconds when integrating the Sculpt system image for the PinePhone.
Fixes#4693
With "grub2: update to newer grub2 2.06 version" a regression slipped in
which makes the ISO not bootable on real hardware. The commit reverts to
the previous behaviour, to load the GRUB2 modules after boot later one by
one in the ISO format case.
Fixes#4647
An installed lighttpd HTTP server can now optionally be started to serve
the boot image with the follow run options.
--load-ipxe-lighttpd run lighttpd automatically (default: off)
--load-ipxe-lighttpd-port <port> TCP port to run lighttpd on (default: 8080)
