When matching the 'label' session argument using '<if-args>' in a
routing table, we can omit the child name prefix because it is always
the same for all sessions originating from the child anyway. Therefore,
this patch adds a special case for matching session labels. It makes the
expression of label-specific routing more intuitive.
Add functionality to lookup an object and lock it. Additional the case is
handled that a object may be already in-destruction and the lookup will deny
returning the object.
The object_pool generalize the lookup and lock functionality of the rpc_server
and serve as base for following up patches to fix dangling pointer issues.
File_io_channel now includes ioctl() because pseudo devices which are
implemented as a file-system, e.g. /dev/tty, are controlled via ioctl()
requests. The method is exported to the Vfs through the Vfs_io_channel
class.
The random file-system provides an arc4 based urandom implementation
which is needed for OpenSSL.
NOTE: the Arc4random class currently _does not collect enough_ random
bytes!
We will reuse the terminal connection in the stdio filesystem
to implement /dev/tty. Therefor we need to access the terminal
from different locations which is simplified if it is provided
by a singleton.
With this patch the make install target for Noux applications gets defined
in the 'NOUX_INSTALL_TARGET' make variable with 'install-strip' as default.
Fixes#503.
Since the number of the fds in the select call is not necassarily equal
to the number of fds SYSCALL_SELECT returns we have to reset the number
of fds given as argument to select().
This keeps OpenSSH from reading from a non-ready socket.
Fixes#494.
Currently the lookup of a specific record in a tar archive may take a long
time, because the records get searched in sequence. With this patch a tree
structure representing the directory layout gets created when loading the
tar file for speeding up record lookups.
Fixes#491.
The previous implementation disregards the fact that we actually have
to use libc's plugin mechanism if we play with fds. So in the end the
libc did not know to which plugin the fd belonged.
Fixes#493.
Implies support for the ARMv6 architecture through 'base-hw'.
Get rid of 'base/include/drivers' expect of 'base/include/drivers/uart'.
Merge with the support for trustzone on VEA9X4 that came from
Stefan Kalkowski.
Leave board drivers in 'base/include/platform'.
Rework structure of the other drivers that were moved to
'base_hw/src/core' and those that came with the trustzone support.
Beautify further stuff in 'base_hw'.
Test 'nested_init' with 'hw_imx31' (hardware) and 'hw_panda_a2' (hardware),
'demo' and 'signal' with 'hw_pbxa9' (qemu) and 'hw_vea9x4'
(hardware, no trustzone), and 'vmm' with 'hw_vea9x4'
(hardware, with trustzone).
Since FD_ZERO() resets a whole fd_set (which is 128 bytes) using it to
reset dst_fds will override otherwise used memory if the memory was
allocated dynamically and is less than sizeof (fd_set). So instead of
using this macro we reset the fd_set manually.
The Io_receptor is now used to unblock certain I/O channels from lwip's
callback-function.
There was also a bug in which all ready-to-ready fds were overriden by
the ready-to-write ones.
The Socket_io_channel class now uses the Io_channel_backend to provide
the network related methods. In addition the Socket_io_channel_registry
was replaced with a simpler implementation which uses Io_receptors to
unblock I/O channels from the callback-function of lwip.
The eglgears application depends on 'sqrt'. With the old tool chain,
this symbol was resolved through the dependencies of the 'gallium'
library. This does not work anymore for the new tool chain.
A similar issue arised for avplay, where we need to explicitly
state the av components in the LIBS declaration of the target.
After this commit "make prepare" uses HTTP, HTTPS, or FTP where possible
fvor downloading third-party source codes. This prevents problems with
strict firewall rules where only selected ports are usable.
Unfortunately, git.l4android.org does not support Git via HTTP and,
therefore, the sources need a working Git port (9418).
Fixes#443.
There are certain programs that need gettimeofday(), e.g.
network-related tools like ping(1) etc. but also filesystem-related
programs like find(1) etc. and of course time-related programs like
date(1).
As there is currently no interface in Genode for actually using clock
devices like RTC on x86 (though there is a driver for it) we "abuse"
the timeout_scheduler thread to at least provide flow-of-time.
Noux: add clock_gettime() implementation
For now, only CLOCK_SECOND is supported.
Noux: add utimes() dummy
Fixes#401
This patch moves the thread iterator function declarations in GDB
monitor's 'Cpu_session_component' above the 'CPU session interface'
comment, because these functions are not part of the CPU session
interface anymore.
Fixes#10.
If during the file system iterations in the 'stat()', 'rename()' or
'mkdir()' funtions of the 'Dir_file_system' class any file system
returns an error code other than 'ERR_NO_ENTRY', return immediately.
Fixes#376.
Make sure unlock is called when 'global_mutex' reaches zero count. Add verbose
variable in order to disable some output. Disable irritating 'Overflow' messages
in 'sys_mbox_post' and 'sys_mbox_try_post' per default. This may happen and is
not an error, since the ring buffer is full and will be emptied eventually.
Remove priority from genode_org run script.
Should fix#347
With this patch, when a child exits, all of its open file descriptors get
closed immediately. This is necessary to unblock the parent if it is
trying to read from a pipe (connected to the child) before calling
'wait4()'.
Fixes#357.
Use 'Nic::Packet_allocator', wait for acknowledgements if packet allocation
fails. Updated 'lwip.run' and 'genode_org.run' to support OMAP4 correctly. Use
memcpy to copy PBUFs
May resolve issue #347
Don't map all memory of the VM at once, instead only the one permitted
by the memory model. Otherwise memory regions get mapped which must not,
where each instruction and memory access have to cause an exception in
order to emulate it step by step.
Classes in Vancouver expect to get zero initialised memory when using memory
from the heap. Some classes don't initialize member variables as they should
do.
Reserve memory region for VM as early as possible before any other
memory allocation happens. Otherwise it could happen that heap
allocations will use part of the virtual region we require for the VM.
The memory allocation heuristics in the usb driver provided by dde_linux
changed with the recent commit 71b2b42936.
Apparently, the new variant requires a larger memory pool. Increasing
the quota is a temporary fix until the memory allocator gets revisited.
The 'find' program can abort if the 'gettimeofday()' function returns -1,
which it currently does. With this patch the 'gettimeofday()' returns a
dummy time instead to prevent such a termination.
Fixes#353.
With this patch the 'Vfs_io_channel::lseek()' function takes the offset
argument into account when calculating the new seek offset in the SEEK_CUR
and SEEK_END cases.
Fixes#352.
This patch introduces the functions 'affinity' and 'num_cpus' to the CPU
session interface. The interface extension will allow the assignment of
individual threads to CPUs. At this point, it is just a stub with no
actual platform support.
With this patch environment variables always get stored as zero-separated
strings in buffers of type 'Sysio::Env'. This fixes the problem that
environment variables with non-alphanumeric characters did not get set
correctly in child processes.
Fixes#340.
Change the uid/gid entries in the stat syscall to have the same values
on all filesystems that are used in the current noux-instance according
to the specified values in noux' config.
Fixes#338.
Programs use the errno value to check which error exactly occured.
It is mandatory for non-blocking I/O, e.g. connect() gets the current
state of the connection by looking at the returned errno values.
Fixes#337.
Certain programs tend to set their sockets non-blocking. As previously
descriptors in Noux were only blocking we now introduce a method to mark
the used Io_channel as non-blocking.
There are certain programms which check if an fd is open by calling
fcntl(fd, F_GETFL, ...). So to keep them happy we return true if
such an request was done to our terminal fd's.
Explanation why --disable-rpath-hack is needed:
When building on pistachio_x86 $(LDFLAGS) contains '-L[...]/l4/lib'
which will be transformed by autoconf to '-rpath [...]/l4/lib'.
Now the problem at hand is that we pretend to be FreeBSD when we are
actually not. So autoconf assumes it is valid to use '-path' when it
is actually not.
Also we use zlib for (de)compressing gzipped streams/files instead of
calling gzip as this currently somewhat buggy.
