The new 'displays' report contains information about the used
framebuffer backend. It is issued when nitpicker has successfully passed
all initialization, in particular the connection to the framebuffer
driver. Hence, it can be taken as an indicator of whether the framebuffer
is available or not (e.g., caused by a faulty driver).

Automated test for switching the NIC-router uplink between NIC driver and Wifi

Issue #2815
When re-configuring the NIC router, determine for each domain if at least one
interface stays with the domain. If a domain fullfills this and has a
dynamic IP config (received via a DHCP client), keep the IP config.
To achieve this, the following changes have been made to the existing NIC
router code:
* Split-up Interface::handle_config into three steps:
1) Determine for each interface if its domain can keep its IP config or
or if it has to mark it invalid. This must be done before (re-)attaching
any interface because during "attach" several decisions are made based on
the validity of the IP config of corresponding the domain.
(E.g. whether to participate in sending DHCP DISCOVERs {IP config
invalid} or whether to participate in sending pending ARP REQUESTs
{IP config valid} ).
2) Detach, attach, or re-attach each interface according to the
configuration. This must be done before re-considering the temporary
state objects of each interface because the latter might have effects
on the interfaces of remote domains which must then be in place already.
3) Re-consider temporary state objects of each interface. (E.g. transport
layer connection states)
* Re-work IP-config setter in a way that it works as follows:
1) If the old IP config is valid, let all local interfaces as well as remote
interfaces that depend on the IP config of the domain detach from the old
IP config.
2) Overwrite with new IP config
3) If the new IP config is valid, let all local interfaces as well as remote
interfaces that depend on the IP config of the domain attach to the new
IP config.
Issue #2815
The new attribute config.domain.label has effect only at the uplink
domain-tag. It determines which label the NIC router shall use when
requesting the NIC session for the uplink domain. If value of this
attribute changes at the uplink domain-tag, the NIC router closes and
re-requests the NIC session of the uplink with the new label.
Issue #2815
This tests the case that behind a NIC router domain there are not only
directly connected clients of the subnet but also Layer 2 indirections like
a switch or a bridge which might be interesting for example for testing the
NIC routers DHCP server implementation.

When an environment session is provided by a async service such as a
sibling component, the session metadata must be preserved until end of
the lifetime of the session at the server has been acknowledged by the
server. Since the session meta data of env sessions are always part of
the 'Child' object, the destruction of this object must be deferred
until this point.
Merge the 'Packet_handle' into the 'Rom_root' and use an Id_space to
match File_system handles to session objects rather than a list. This
avoids the need to override 'Root_component::_destroy_session'.

When exhausted of RAM quota while starting children, init used to throw
an uncaught 'Out_of_ram' exception as this condition was considered
fatal. However, this behavior is undesired when init is used in a highly
dynamic yet long-running fashion like sculpt's runtime subsystem. This
change keeps init running despite the error condition, giving the user
the chance to relieve the resource pressure.

The 'View_stack::draw_rec' method limited the redraw to parts of the

Rename LwIP library in preparation for removal of LwIP libc plugin. The

This patch makes the 'List_model' utility robust against duplicated
occurrences of node IDs in the supplied XML data. If two or more XML
nodes correspond to the same model element, the existing element is
updated with the information of the subsequent XML nodes.
This patch enhances the box layout such that child widgets are
equally stretched to the available size whenever the box layout's
size is larger than its min size. Furthermore, it corrects the
mixed-up use of the terms east and west in the float widget.
The file may also be changed by other components, so a open-close cycle
for write() is more robust. For example, Vim removes the original file
and recreates with the new content.
This component creates a GPT on a Block device. It supports the common
actions, as in adding, deleting and modifying entries in the GPT, while
considering alignment constraints. If needed it will round the length of
a partition down to meet those constraints. The component will not
perform layout checking, i.e., it does not care about overlapping
partitions. Only when apping a partition it will make sure that the
partition will fit.
Please read _repos/gems/src/app/gpt_write/README_ for more detailed
information on how to use the component and feel free to check out
_repos/gems/run/gpt_write.run_.
Fixes#2814.
The box-layout widget used to trigger the geometry animation of its
children immediately when updating the widget from the XML model (by
calling 'child->Widget::geometry'). This caused layout inconsistencies
in situations where the box layout is defined not by the constraints of
the child widgets but from the outside (the parent calls Widget::size).
Since the final layout is not known before the parent defines the actual
size, this patch moves the trigger point for the geometry animation to
'Widget::size'.
The new 'version' attribute can be used to explicitly distinguish
widgets that have the same name. E.g., if one widget is removed and
another with the same name is created somewhere else at the same time,
the menu view would normally interpret this change as a movement.
By attaching a distinct 'version' the new instance, menu view won't
attempt perform a smooth transition between the old and new widgets.
The '_active_mode' must not be changed at any time except when the
client asks for the 'Framebuffer::mode'. Otherwise, the dimensions of
dataspace used by the client is not always consistent with the mode
information as gathered by the client.
Generic code that operates over both UDP and TCP sockets might use

Adaption to mac-address allocation changes
Normally, the NIC sessions are independent from the domain tags.
However, by now the uplink session, in contrast to the sessions of the
other domains, is still not a server but a client. This means that only
the NIC router itself can decide when to open and close uplink sessions
and how many. Thus, with this commit, we break with the pattern that
session lifetime is independent from domains by letting the NIC router
create the uplink session when the uplink domain appears and close the
session when the domain disappears.
Fixes#2795
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.

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).

This patch addresses the corner case where hovering changes while a
button is held, e.g., when accidentially moving the pointer out of a
application window's area during a drag-and-drop operation. The patch
makes the window manager aware of the drag/idle state. Only when idle,
the pointer position is propagated to the decorator now.
Socket_fs sockets are now created each time a 'new_socket' control file
is opened, not each time a 'new_socket' file is read. When a handle on a
'new_socket' file is closed the socket and its socket files are
destroyed. The accept control file on a listening socket reads "1" or
reads nothing to indicate a client connection is queued. Client sockets
are accepted by opening an 'accept_socket' file in the listen socket
directory. This file behaves like the aforementioned 'new_socket' file.

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

be also the actual size of the encapsulated IP packet. This commit fixes
the problem for all affected components of the Genode base-repository.

This reduces the redundant implementations of checksum calculation to
one generic implementation, makes the checksum interface conform over

When the former trace buffer implementation wrapped, the last entry
according to commit order couldn't be detected anymore. Now, the last
committed entry is always followed by an entry with length 0.
As a downside of this, there are now two meanings of "last" entry: It
means either that the entry marks the empty padding after the entry with
the highest memory address or that it actually marks the end of the
buffer according to commit order. This is an example state of the buffer
with the two types of "last" entry:
last last
+-------------+------------+---+---------+-------------+------------+---+-------+
| len3 data3 | len4 data4 | 0 | empty | len1 data1 | len2 data2 | 0 | empty |
+-------------+------------+---+---------+-------------+------------+---+-------+
If the entry with the highest memory address fits perfectly, the first
type of "last" entry is not needed:
last
+------------+--------------------+---+-------+-------------+-------------------+
| len3 data3 | len4 data4 | 0 | empty | len1 data1 | len2 data2 |
+------------+--------------------+---+-------+-------------+-------------------+
If the buffer didn't wrap so far, there is only one "last" entry that
has both meanings:
last
+--------------------------+------------+-------------+---+---------------------+
| len1 data1 | len2 data2 | len3 data3 | 0 | empty |

By incorporating the sculpt version into the path where customizations
are stored, we can update and roll back sculpt versions without risking
configuration incompatibilities. By default, the sculpt version
corresponds to <genode-dir>/VERSION.
The condition must first check the io-buffer length and then check the

page size (io-buffer size) yields an out-of-range read access.
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).
This patch make the scenario independent from device drivers, which were
solely needed to display a graphical terminal. The output of the
scenario is now printed via the log_terminal component, which makes the
logging output of nightly tests more useful.
The pattern rule picked up the wrong platform_services.cc in the

The Ada runtime can now be set with the ADA_RTS variable. The ada

which needs to be added to the build files.
I split the existing Ada test into program and library, and moved it
to libports as it depends on the runtime library residing in this
repository too.

Nitpicker's 'Session:focus' call used to trigger a one-off focus change
at call time. This focus change did not pass the same code paths as a
focus change triggered by a "focus" ROM update, which led to
inconsistencies.
This patch changes the implementation of 'Session::focus' such that the
relationship of the caller and the focused session is preserved after
call time. Whenever the calling session is focused in the future, the
specified session will receive the focus instead. So 'Session::focus'
represents no longer a single operation but propagates the information
about the inter-session relationship. This information is taken into
account whenever the focus is evaluated regardless of how the change is
triggered.
This makes the focus handling in scenarios like the window manager more
robust.

Originally, the timeout framework caused deadlocks when acquiring the same
lock from different timeout handlers. This use case is now tested in the
timeout test.
Fixes#2704
To handle all pending timeouts in the context of scheduling a timeout
was only necessary because the Timeout framework once made use of the
Alarm framework. The method Alarm_scheduler::schedule_absolute took an
absolute deadline as argument and we couldn't change this beause the
Alarm framework was also used without the Timeout framework. We had to
calculate this absolute deadline with the now time of the Timeout
framework but the Alarm framework has its own now time that is always a
bit behind the one of the Timeout framework. This lead to bad decisisons
when finding the right position for the new timeout. Now, we can call
schedule_absolute with a relative duration and thereby fix the problem.
When we schedule an absolute timeout without considering the small time
difference, the end-time for the timeout that is calculated using the
local time value is also smaller than the expected end-time. This can
also lead to directly triggering timeouts that should have triggered
with a certain delay.
As it is not trivial to update the local time value while scheduling a
timeout _without_ calling other timeout handlers, we simply raise the
duration of the new timeout by the age of the local time value.
Issue #2704
This fixes the problem that large timeouts, when rescheduled, are interpreted
to be from the last now_period instead of, what would be right, the next
now_period. This occured if there were multiple pending alarms at the head of
the queue and the reschedule of the first one was done with the other outdated
deadlines still in place.
Issue #2704
Instead of taking the absolute deadline of a timeout as argument from
outside (where it is calculated with a freshly requested now time), we
now take a relative duration as argument and calculate the deadline with
the scheduler-internal now time (which can be a little bit outdated).
This enables us to schedule timeouts without updating the internal now time
and thereby handle all pending timeouts.
Issue #2704
Integrate the code of the Alarm framework directly into the Timeout

corresponding classes of the Timeout framework and get prefixed with

This commit introduces a VFS plugin that exposes the glyphs and
metadata of a TrueType font as a pseudo file system. The TTF font data
is obtained from the VFS. The resulting pseudo file system is a
directory that contains the files 'glyphs', 'baseline', 'max_width',
and 'max_height'.
The counter part of the plugin is the 'Vfs_font' class that implements
the 'Text_painter::Font' interface by accessing the pseudo file system
as provided by the TTF VFS plugin.

This patch enhances the VFS access utilities of gems/vfs.h to be usable
with a prior created root directory. It also adds a
'File_content::bytes' method for operating of the raw content, which is
needed in situations where the data pointer is passed to a third-party
parser.
This patch improves the `Text_painter` utility that is commonly used by
native Genode components to render text:
- Support for subpixel positioning
- Generic interface for accessing font data
- Basic UTF-8 support
Since the change decouples the font format from the 'Text_painter' and
changes the API to use the sub-pixel accurate 'Text_painter::Position'
type, all users of the utility require an adaptation.
Fixes#2716
This file system is meant as a building block for pseudo file systems
that host a directory of several small files where each corresponds to
an attribute of the pseudo file system.
By letting the 'Dir_file_system' accept an arbitrary 'File_system'
as root directory, we can use the 'Dir_file_system' as a building
block for creating other file-system types.
This patch enables the use of the VFS from VFS plugins by passing a
reference of the root directory to the constructors of file-system
instances. Since it changes the signature of 'Vfs::Dir_file_system',
any code that uses the VFS directly requires an adaptation.

the stated domain receives the address of a local DNS server via DHCP.
Whenever the IP config of the stated domain becomes invalid, the DHCP
server switches to a mode where it drops all requests unanswered until
the IP config becomes valid again.
Issue #2730
Until now, the DHCP server of a domain was re-constructed each time the
IP config changed. This is not necessary as a domain that acts as DHCP
server must have a static IP config as it would be senseless to act as
DHCP server and client at the same time. Now, a configured DHCP server
is constructed only when the Domain gets constructed and stays alive
until the domain gets destructed. Furthermore, we now throw Domain::Invalid
if there is no static IP config plus a DHCP server configured. However, by
now, this exception is not caught as it is not trivial to destruct the
domain at this point.
Issue #2730
The Interface constructor previously tried to attach to a domain. This
might include sending a DHCP request to get the domain a valid IP config.
But in order to achieve this, the constructor used a pure virtual method
of Interface which crashes due to the unfinished vtable. To fix this bug,
the attach attempt was moved to a new Interface::init method.

Instead of Pointer<T>::set use assignment operator with implicit constructor
from T-reference. Instead of Pointer<T>::unset use assignment operator with
Pointer<T>(). Instead of Pointer<T>::deref provide () operator.
Issue #2730
A very basic test of the re-configurability. It overwrites the configuration
once without making any changes, once with removing all domains except
uplink, and a third time recovering to the initial configuration to see if
the clients keep going as soon as their domains are back.
Fixes#2670
The router reacts as follows to a configuration change:
1) Construct new internal configuration representation (the old one stays
in place to be able to do comparisons in the following steps)
2) Iterate through all user-dependent objects (interfaces, link states, ARP
information, DHCP information) and re-check which remain valid with the
new configuration and which must be dismissed.
3) Adapt the objects that remain valid to the new configuration (re-write
references) and remove or detach the dismissed objects.
4) Do a link state DOWN at each interface and a link state UP at each
interface that remains attached to a domain.
5) Replace the old internal configuration representation with the new one
This way, the router keeps as much user dependent states as possible
while going through a configuration change. Thus, overwriting the old
configuration with an exact copy of itself is (almost) transparent to
clients of the router. Almost, because there are things the router must
do on every configuration handling, like re-scheduling the expiration
timeouts of links.

The for_each method of the List wrapper remembers the next list item
before calling the functor on the current one, so, the current one can
be destroyed during the functor.
Ref #2670
Clients can connect at any time to the NIC router. The interfaces (sessions)
get attached to the appropriate domain as soon as it appears. This implies
that interfaces can also be detached from a domain without beeing destructed
when the domain disappears. All user dependent states of an interface such as
the link states, DHCP allocations and ARP information get lost when the
interface gets detached.

This separates the decision wether to log the received and sent packets
from the 'verbose' attribute. This information is now only logged if
'verbose_packets' is switched on. If 'verbose' is switched on, only
routing decisions and optional hints are printed.

We disable super-page I/O mappings because our unmap code does not flush
local mappings from core and, thus, breaks later re-mappings of
different page size.
Issue #2547
Switch port I/O based PCI config space access to memory-mapped IO. The
base address of the PCI configuration space is acquired by mapping the
ACPI ROM and reading the first <bdf> node. An exception is thrown if the
first <bdf> node is not for PCI domain zero or if multiple <bdf> nodes
exist. This is to reduce complexity and also because multiple PCI
domains are rare.
The PCI configuration space is accessed via I/O mem dataspace which is
created in the platform_drv root and then passed on to the PCI session,
device components and finally to the actual PCI config access instances.
The memory access code is implemented in a way to make it work with Muen
subject monitor (SM) device emulation and also general x86 targets. On
Muen, the simplified device emulation code (which works also for Linux)
always returns 0xffff in EAX to indicate a non-existing device.
Therefore, EAX is enforced in the assembly templates.
Fixes#2547
The KIP address range resides in virtual memory while io_mem alloc
manages physical-address ranges.
The patch enables the use of ECAM/MMCONF for PCI configuration.
