Issue #3111
- enable vt-x in kernel configuration
Kernel patches:
- add unrestricted guest support
- avoid kernel boot failure when vt-x is not available
- avoid nullpointer in kernel when vcpu is not fully setup
- avoid vcpu scheduling bug which causes starvation on same/below prio level
- save efer register correctly from guest
The zynq nic_drv also depends on hw, we therefore adapted the folder
structure for clarity. Also renamed the binary to 'zynq_nic_drv' to
prevent conflicts and to allow removing the cadence_gem spec.
Issue #3179
Since the timer and timeout handling is part of the base library (the
dynamic linker), it belongs to the base repository.
Besides moving the timer and its related infrastructure (alarm, timeout
libs, tests) to the base repository, this patch also moves the timer
from the 'drivers' subdirectory directly to 'src' and disamibuates the
timer's build locations for the various kernels. Otherwise the different
timer implementations could interfere with each other when using one
build directory with multiple kernels.
Note that this patch changes the include paths for the former os/timer,
os/alarm.h, os/duration.h, and os/timed_semaphore.h to base/.
Issue #3101
If the NIC router has insufficient CAP or RAM quota for the creation of
a state object for an interface, it tries to destroy a certain amount of
existing state objects of this interface to free resources. Afterwards,
it retries handling the current packet once. If it does fail again, the
router drops the packet.
Issue #2953
Ensure that a '\0' always appears at the end of the ouput of the XML
generator. Previously, exceptions during the Node(...) constructor
might have prevented this. This commit also extends the xml_generator
test to drive a harder test on exceptions in the Xml_generator.
Issue #2953
When the functor provided to the Node constructor throws an exception,
do revert all changes in reverse order. Previously, the changes made
to the parent node were not considered by the exception handler which
caused unnecessary characters to remain in the out buffer for each
reverted node.
Issue #2953
The PS/2 driver retries to get mouse-reset results for 700 ms, sleeping
after each attempt for 10 ms. So, the driver needs a Timer session now.
Fixes#2713
The ram plugin to the VFS must send notifications to watch handles on
files when they are removed. This brings the VFS server to parity with
the ram_fs server for the sake of notifications.
Move run/fs_report to gems and use the vfs server and the vfs init
plugin in the test.

This patch removes the detection of statically linked executables from
the base framework. It thereby fixes the corner cases encountered with
Sculpt when obtaining the binaries of the runtime from the depot_rom
service that is hosted within the runtime.
Statically linked binaries and hybrid Linux/Genode (lx_hybrid) binaries
can still be started by relabeling the ROM-session route of "ld.lib.so"
to the binary name, pretending that the binary is the dynamic linker.
This can be achieved via init's label rewriting mechanism:
<route>
<service name="ROM" unscoped_label="ld.lib.so">
<parent label="test-platform"/> </service>
</route>
However, as this is quite cryptic and would need to be applied for all
lx_hybrid components, the patch adds a shortcut to init's configuration.
One can simply add the 'ld="no"' attribute to the <start> node of the
corresponding component:
<start name="test-platform" ld="no"/>
Fixes#2866
Process I/O packets in batches. If a batch is processed and there are
still packets pending, send a signal locally to the packet handler and
return to the entrypoint signal dispatcher. This prevents clients from
starving each other, which happens when a client continuously submits
packets at a faster rate than the server can process.
Fix#2900
Test of File_system I/O scheduling. It appears that a client not
submitting I/O packets slower than the VFS server can process will
starve other clients.
Ref #2900
This component is contrasted with the fs_rom server that serves
independent dataspaces to each client. Using a cache was not possible
until the region map session supported the creation of read-only
attachments.
Test at run/read_only_rom.
Ref #1633Fix#2760
The test triggers the following assertion in the kernel, which will
remain unfixed as the kernel is no longer developed:
Assertion queue_state.is_set(queue_state_t::send) failed in file
.../pistachio/kernel/src/api/v4/tcb.h, line 727
This assertion is presumably similar / related to issue #1495.
The legacy PIT timer driver is too jittery for the character-repeat
test. This patch disables the test for platforms using this device as
user-level time source, which are at the moment OKL4, Pistachio, and
seL4.
