Make the framebuffer driver for pl11x chipsets,
the ps2 input driver for pl050, and the lan9116 NIC driver independent from
the pbxa9 board by using the newly introduced common ARM platform driver API.

- Since Genode::strncpy is not 100% compatible with the POSIX
strncpy function, better use a distinct name.
- Remove bogus return value from the function, easing the potential
enforcement of mandatory return-value checks later.
Fixes#3752
As discovered by Johannes Kliemann, peeking at buffered socket data
using 'recv' and 'MSG_PEEK' is not supported. Read a "peek" control file
from the socket directory to attempt to peek into buffers at the
socket_fs. Support for every feature of POSIX sockets cannot be
expected, but this one is trivial to implement.
Fix#2875
The former ldso-startup static library (now called ldso_so_support) is
used to spice each shared object/library with local support code for the
dynamic linker (execution of static constructors and ARM-EABI).
Therefore, the library must be statically linked to each dynamic
library.
As a result recipes for dynamic libraries must always depend on the "so"
API, which makes ldso_so_support.mk and so_support.c available
independent of "base". Additionally, ldso_so_support is also provided in
the libc API to cut the dependency early for libc/posix libraries.
Issue #3720
This patch removes old 'Allocator_guard' utility and replaces its use
with the modern 'Constrained_ram_allocator'.
The adjustment of core in this respect has the side effect of a more
accurate capability accounting in core's CPU, TRACE, and RM services.
In particular, the dataspace capabilities needed for core-internal
allocations via the 'Sliced_heap' are accounted to the client now.
The same goes for nitpicker and nic_dump as other former users of the
allocator guard. Hence, the patch also touches code at the client and
server sides related to these services.
The only remaining user of the 'Allocator_guard' is the Intel GPU
driver. As the adaptation of this component would be too invasive
without testing, this patch leaves this component unchanged by keeping a
copy of the 'allocator_guard.h' locally at the component.
Fixes#3750
This commit puts all C++ runtime/support symbols of ld.lib.so in a
dedicated section of base/lib/symbols/ld and mirrors the section to
libports/lib/symbols/libc. So, the libc ABI resolves potential C++
runtime dependencies of base-ABI-agnostic components at link time. The
runtime resolution is done by the linker by symbol lookup in ld.lib.so.

config_0.xml.tmp:26: element config: Schemas validity error :

Issue #3612
This patch avoids calls of '__sys_getstatfs' (indirectly via
'getmntinfo'), which does not return any meaningful values in Genode's
libc. Otherwise, the libc's dummy implementation prompts resize2fs to
back out.
Issue #3696
This patch makes the e2fsprogs 'mke2fs' and 'resize2fs' available as
standalone components that can be used by Sculpt OS directly without
a Unix emulation environment.
This patch reduces the size of session labels for all services other
than LOG, keeping only the last element. This avoids exceeding the
maximum label length in the presence of deep fork hierarchies, e.g., for
running the tool chain.
Fixes#3700
This depot package is the runtime for rtc_drv and system_rtc server with
coordinated update of system and hardware RTC via reports. It replaces
drivers_rtc which was never freestanding drivers package and, therefore,
has to be accompanied with a running platform_drv etc.
Fixes#3680
The function is exposed in libc headers provided by Genode, the code for
the function is being compiled and actually works, but the symbol is
missing from the symbols file resulting in linking failures. Add it to
the libc symbols file.

The new implementation relieves the main entrypoint from monitor jobs
for contended lock primitives and is based on custom applicant data
structures, per-lock resp. per-semaphore applicant lists, and a
libc-internal blockade with timeouts based on libc kernel primitives.
Generated a separate 'config.h' for arm, arm_64, x86_32, x86_64 for the
current version (6.1.2) of GMP. This became necessary because
configurations differ for each architecture.

for x86_64 (native):
! configure

issue #3598
The libc monitor facility enables the execution of monitor jobs by the
main thread when the monitor pool was charged. In comparison to the
current suspend/resume_all mechanism the main thread iterates over all
job functions in contrast to waking up all threads to check their
conditions by themselves. Threads are only woken up if the completion
condition was met.
This commit is the result of a collaboration with Christian Prochaska.
Many thanks for your support, Christian.
Fixes#3550
sleep(), usleep(), and nanosleep() now return immediately on
zero-timeout. Also, non-zero timeouts sleep at least 1 ms (the current
minimal timeout in libc), which compensates rounding errors.
Issue #3550
If the suspend method for the main thread detects that the suspend
condition is false it must return the passed timeout value (not always
0). Otherwise, the caller may incorrectly assume the timeout expired.
Incoming ACK packets for sent data packets may be the only unblocker for
suspended write/send loops. This patch informs VFS users about I/O of
VFS handle on successfully sent packets.
Store errno in pthread objects, return member upon call to '__error()'.
This became necessary in order to make errno thread-safe.
Note, any call to libc code from a non-pthread (beside the first
entrypoint) is not supported.
issue #3568
This is important to issue sync requests for written-to files.
As the closing must be performed by an atexit handler, it happens at a
time _after_ libc plugins are destructed. Consequently an FD allocated
by such a plugin results in a close error, which in turn, does not
destruct the FD. We ultimatedly end up in an infinte loop of
re-attempting the close. For this reason, the patch changes 'close' to
be robust against this special case.
This is generally not a problem because libc plugins are phased out.
However, at present, the libc_noux plugin is still important. With the
changed 'close' in place, there occurred an error message "Error: close:
close not implemented" at the exit of each noux program. This patch
removes the error printing from the libc plugin mechansim to avoid this
noise. The error messages are not important anyway because the
deprecation of the libc plugin interface.
Issue #3578
The getpeername function is provided only by the socket fs.
In the case where the socket fs is not configured, return an appropriate
errno instead probing for a libc plugin (there is none).
Issue #3578
- Close FDs marked with the close-on-execve flag
(needed for 'make', which sets the flag for the pipe-in
FD of forked children)
- Update binary name on execve to use as ROM for subsequent fork
- Enable vfork as an alias for fork (needed by make)
- Purge line buffers for output streams during execve because they
may be allocated at the allocation heap, which does not survive
the execve call.
- Consider short-lived processes that may exit while the parent still
blocks in the fork call.
With these changes, the website generator of genodians.org works without
the need for the Noux runtime.
Issue #3578
fd > FD_SETSIZE cannot use 'select' or 'poll' within our libc.
Therefore, we added a bit allocator in order to allocate fd < FD_SETSIZE
(1024).
fixes#3568
'dlopen' causes the ldso to open ROM connections, right now we only
support single file names for these ROM not paths. Therefore, we extract
the file name from path within libc's 'dlopen'
