Instead of holding SPEC-variable dependent files and directories inline
within the repository structure, move them into 'spec' subdirectories
at the corresponding levels, e.g.:
repos/base/include/spec
repos/base/mk/spec
repos/base/lib/mk/spec
repos/base/src/core/spec
...
Moreover, this commit removes the 'platform' directories. That term was
used in an overloaded sense. All SPEC-relative 'platform' directories are
now named 'spec'. Other files, like for instance those related to the
kernel/architecture specific startup library, where moved from 'platform'
directories to explicit, more meaningful places like e.g.: 'src/lib/startup'.
Fix#1673
This patch moves the VFS file-system factory to a separate vfs library
that is independent from libc. This enables libc-less Genode programs to
easily use the VFS infrastructure.
Fixes#1561
With this patch, when calling 'setFocus()' on a QNitpickerViewWidget, the
Nitpicker view gets the input focus (provided that the parent Qt window
already had it).
Fixes#1314
These file systems are provided on-demand by loading a shared library
when the fstab node is traversed. By convention this library is named
after the file system it provides. For example a file system that
provides a 'random' file system node is called 'vfs_random.lib.so'. It
is still possible to give the the node another name in the vfs. The
following code snippts illustrates this matter:
! [...]
! <config>
! <libc>
! <vfs>
! <dir name="dev"> <jitterentropy name="random"/> </dir>
! </vfs>
! </libc>
! </config>
! [...]
Here the jitterentropy file system, implemented in
'vfs_jitterentropy.lib.so' provides a file system node named 'random'
in the 'dev' directory. When traversing the vfs section the libc will
try to load 'vfs_jitterentropy.lib.so' but programs may access the
file system only via '/dev/random'.
Fixes#1240.
The QPluginWidget used to be a QNitpickerViewWidget but the new loader
interface does no longer hand out a view capability. So we need to
decouple both classes. This patch moves the view-geometry calculation to
a separate class to make it easier reusable, in particular for the
QPluginWidget.
This patch changes nitpicker's session interface to use session-local
view handles instead of view capabilities. This enables the batching
of multiple view operations into one atomic update.
For the correct integration of a QPluginWidget in a parent QWidget, with
this commit the parent QWidget's Nitpicker view is made the parent view of
the plugin's Nitpicker view.
Fixes#1173.
Now that it is possible to resize the stack of the Genode main thread, it
is not necessary anymore to create a new Genode thread as Qt main thread.
Fixes#1134.
This patch changes the top-level directory layout as a preparatory
step for improving the tools for managing 3rd-party source codes.
The rationale is described in the issue referenced below.
