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 commit applies the transition from the "Input" session to the "Event"
session to the event-filtering mechansim. The functionality of the
input_filter is now provided by the event_filter. The event filter
requests only one "Event" session as destination for the filter result,
which is usually routed to the nitpicker GUI server. It provides an
"Event" service to which any number of event sources can connect.
The configuration of the filter chain remains almost the same. Only the
declaration of the <input> nodes is no longer needed. Instead, the
configuration must specify <policy> nodes, which define the mapping of
"Event" clients (event sources) to the inputs used in the filter chain.
The patch adjusts all uses of the nitpicker GUI server accordingly such
that the event filter reports events to nitpicker's event service
instead of having nitpicker request an "Input" session. This dissolves
the dependency of nitpicker from input drivers.
Issue #3827
* Differentiate in between different architectures with assembler routines
for correct measures
* Automate first step measuring of 10G bogomips across different hardware
Fix#3785
base-linux uses seccomp to reduce the available system calls
to the minimum set needed to run base-linux. There are still
some syscalls that allow accessing global state which should
be further reduced.
The combination of seccomp and socket descriptor caps should
provide an intermediate level of security for base-linux
thereby enabling base-linux as a migration path from using
the Linux kernel to the use of microkernel-based Genode.
Fixes#3581
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.
This patch replaces the former Noux instance by a sub init that hosts
the combination of VFS + fs_rom + bash. If bash exits, the whole sub
init exits, which implicitly tears down the terminal session used by the
sub init. The latter is expected by the test sequence.
Issue #3696
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
The check was accidentally in
66d44289e1 tool/ports: streamline hash tool usage
because $(call VAR, ...) just expands to nothing without errors if VAR
is undefined.
