This commit allows for suppressing failed extract operations by
setting the 'ignore_failures' attribute in the 'config' node.
It is intended for operating the component in batch-mode where
multiple archives need to be extracted but failing to extract
some of them can by ignored. The default value of this option
is 'false'.
It also adds the 'stop_on_failure' attribute that instructs
the component to stop processing any following archives after
it already has failed to do so. The default value of this
option is 'true' to preserve the current behavior.

Issue #5305
This interface change gives GUI servers the freedom to allocate view
capabilities at the time of request instead of the creation time of the
view. This is useful because view capabilities are rarely needed.
Issue #5242
This patch moves the management of view IDs from the server to the
client side. The former 'create_view' and 'create_child_view'
operations do no longer return a view ID but take a view ID as
argument. While changing those operations, this patch takes the
opportunity to allow for initial view attributes. Combined, those
changes simplify the window manager while accommodating typical
client use cases with less code.
To ease the client-side ID management, the Gui::Connection hosts
a 'view_ids' ID space for optional use. E.g., the new 'Top_level_view'
class uses this ID space for ID allocation. This class accommodates the
most typical use case of opening a single window.
The 'alloc_view_id' RPC function is no longer needed.
Issue #5242
This patch reworks the view-ID handling within the nitpicker GUI server
and the window manager. The namespace of view handles are now represented
as an Id_space. In constrast to the former "handles", which could be
invalid, IDs cannot be semantically overloaded with anything other than
an actual view reference. There is no notion of an invalid handle.
IDs are like C++ references (which cannot be a nullptr).
This change requires the code to be more explicit. E.g., the stacking of
a few at the front-most position can no longer be expressed by passing
an invalid handle as neighbor.
Issue #5242
Express the allocation of a new view handle by a dedicated RPC function
instead of passing an invalid view handle to the existing 'view_handle'
function.
This eliminates the notion of invalid view handles at the GUI session
interface, clearing the way for managing view handles via an Id_space.
Issue #5242
This patch eliminates the use of invalid view handles as special
Session::Command arguments. The TO_FRONT and TO_BACK operations
interpreted as invalid neighbor as top-most or back-most position.
Those corner cases are now expressed via dedicated commands. The
new stacking commands are FRONT, BACK, FRONT_OF, and BEHIND_OF.
While changing the command interface, the patch removes the OP_
prefix from the opcode values.

- Rename framebuffer_session to framebuffer and
input_session to input as those RPC interfaces are no longer

To maintain ease of use at the client side, the OUT_OF_RAM and

The fd event handling uses the fd to directly access the array slot and
expects the fds to be contiguous and capped.
Since the returned fds from our libc were much larger than expected,
because the libc itself consumes multiple fds when managing sockets,
using the fd in this manner leads to memory corruption.
This commit limits the maxfds to 63 and always allocates 1024 slots
in the fd-array.

The Fn key on keyboards should never be reported as real scancode event,
as it is just a hardware switch that changes the reported scancodes of
other keys. The behavior of Linux hid-apple.c is wrong as it on one hand
reports different scancodes for the same hard key depending on the Fn
state but sends the Fn press and release events too. Thus from now on,
we just drop KEY_FN events for all drivers as otherwise, scancodes
generated generated by Fn+key combinations would never be single-key
events on upper layers, for example KEY_FN + KEY_F12 on the Matias Apple
keyboard clone in the fixed issue.

This patch tightens the coupling of the 'Platform_thread' objects
with their corresponding 'Platform_pd' objects by specifying the
'Platform_pd' as constructor argument, keeping the relationship
as a reference (instead of a pointer), and constraining the
lifetime of 'Platform_pd' objects to the lifetime of the PD.
It thereby clears the way to simplify the thread creation since all
PD-related information (like quota budgets) are now known at the
construction time of the 'Platform_thread'.
The return value of 'Platform_thread::start' has been removed because it
is not evaluated by 'Cpu_thread_component'.

Issue #5245
For each packet that got stuck with an ARP-cache miss, the router used to send
one ARP request and create one ARP waiter. However, in situations where many
packets target the same IP at one destination domain and during a short period
of time, this causes unnecessary session-quota consumption and network traffic.
This issue becomes especially pressing when taking malicious source peers,
absent destination peers, and packet batching into account.
Therefore, with this commit, the router can accumulate multiple source packets
with the same destination IP at one ARP waiter. This means, that only the first
packet with an ARP-cache for a certain IP sends an ARP request and creates an
ARP waiter. For situations where the ARP request is not answered, this
essentially rate-limits ARP requests for one IP at one destination domain
according to the lifetime of ARP waiters (default: 10s)
Ref #4534
The router used to send an ARP request for a packet before allocating the
corresponding ARP waiter. If the ARP waiter could not be allocated due to
resource exhaustion plus emergency free failed, the packet got dropped and the
router had produced unnecessary network traffic. The commit fixes this by
sending only after successful allocation.
Ref #4534
The previous default packet-batch count of 150 (<config
max_packets_per_signal>) was choosen with the only goal of preventing
starvation by huge amounts of packets from one session.
However, there is something else to keep in mind. A packet that is found to
require ARP sends an ARP request and becomes blocked after having consumed
resources. This means, that, in the worst case, the router used to send 150 ARP
requests and consume resources 150 times before making it even possible for the
outer world to react and cause resources to be freed.
With this additional scenario in mind, the default batch size should be
significantly lower.

Issue #5245
So far, this test used dynamic_rom for the re-configuration of the nic router
and tested for the expected ping results by inspecting the log with the run
tool. However, this approach had two issues:
* Timing differs significantly on different targets and so the dynamic_rom had
the difficult task of compensating with heuristics without bloating the test
duration too much.
* In case of a failing test, it was difficult to determine the cause as the
test kept running and produced output for quite some time and there was also
no specific error message but only a generic timeout.
These two issues are now fixed by introducing a test component that listens to
the ping-result report and manages the nic router configuration. The new
component exits early on failure and provides information on the error
circumstances. Furthermore, the component advances to the next test step only
after having seen the expected result of the active test step and thereby
removes the need for heuristics about target timing.

The router used to ignore the value of the <report quota=".."/> attribute when
it came to determining whether an interface's report is empty or not.
Therefore, merely configuring <report quota="yes"/> didn't cause interfaces
(and their quota) to show up in the report. Instead, interface quota was
reported as side effect of <report stats="yes"/>. The commit fixes this
inconsistency with the README.
The only object that is dynamically allocated by a network interface and that
was not equipped with a self-destruct timeout was the ARP waiter. This commit
closes this gap by adding a timeout to each ARP waiter that is set to 10
seconds by default but can be configured via the new <config> attribute
'arp_request_timeout_sec'.
Ref #4729
RFCs recommend to keep TCP connections for a certain time even after they
finished a close handshake, AFAIK, in order to be able to recognize astray
packets when they arrive later. This seems overambitious especially when in
the context of the router where session quota is pretty limited. Therefore,
this commit drops this final timeout and drops closed connections immediately.
Ref #4729
The previous value of 60 seconds was never observed in real-time scenarios and
UDP, for instance always used a timeout of 30 seconds without causing issues.
Note that this applies only to TCP connections in a state other than
ESTABLISHED, i.e., while it is still safe to early-drop the connection.
Ref #4729
The TCP connection state "ESTABLISHED" (in the router "OPEN") is a privileged
one for peers because it lasts very long without any peer interaction (in the
NIC router it's only 10 minutes, but RFCs recommend not less than 2 hours and
4 minutes). Furthermore, TCP connections in this state are normally not
available for early-drop on resource exhaustion. This means that this state
binds resources to a connection potentially for a long time without the option
of regaining them under stress. Therefore, this state should be entered with
care.
Up to now, the router marked a TCP connection with this state as soon as it had
seen one matching packet in both directions, which is rather quick. However,
implementing a very precise tracking of the exact TCP states of both peers and
only marking the connection "ESTABLISHED" when both peers are "ESTABLISHED" is
a difficult task with lots of corner cases.
That said, this commit implements a compromise. The router now has two flags
for each peer of a TCP connection - FIN sent and FIN acked - and sets them
according to the observed TCP flags. The "ESTABLISHED" state is entered only
when FIN acked is set for both peers (without having observed an RST or FIN
flag meanwhile).
Ref #4729
The Reference and Const_reference utility were introduced in order to express
that something is a reference (no null value) but can be changed dynamically
(not possible with built-in C++ references). However, the idea of preventing
every possibility for null pointer faults, with which the router was built
initially, has not prevailed and using pointers instead of the utility saves
logic and makes the code more readable to other C++ developers.
Ref #4729
The deinitialization method of Domain used to rely on Domain::with_dhcp_server
in order to dissolve and destroy a present DHCP server. However, this method
skipped calling its functor argument also when there was a DHCP server but an
invalid one. This commt replaces the with_dhcp_server with a pointer null-check
in order to fix the leak.
Ref #4729
Re-implements an emergency freeing of resources on exhaustion of session quota.
In contrast to the past one, the new algorithm is executed directly where the
exhaustion occurs. Instead of interupting the packet handling and restart it
from the beginning after the freeing action, packet handling is now continued
at the point of exhaustion (if enough resources could be freed). Furthermore,
the new algorithm frees only 100 objects (instead of 1024) at a max as we found
this to better match real-life observations. And finally, the router now drops
ICMP first, then UDP, then TCP - as this better reflects priorities - and
refrains from dropping TCP connections in the ESTABLISHED state. If the router
cannot free a sufficient amount of resources, the packet that caused the
exhaustion is dropped with a warning (verbose_packet_drop="yes").
Ref #4729
Remove the use of C++ exception as much as possible from the router as C++
exception handling can be resource intensive and can make code hard to
understand.
This also removes the garbage collection that the router used to do when a
session ran out of quota. This is motivated by the fact that the garbage
collection was rather simple and removed connection states regardless of their
current state, thereby causing broken connections. The change is part of this
commit as the approach to integrating garbage collection relied strongly on
exception handling.
The user story behind removing garbage collection: The router emergency-dropped
an established TCP connection (with NAPT) and on the next matching packet
re-created it with a different NAPT port, thereby breaking the connection. With
this commit, existing connections are prioritized over new ones during resource
exhaustion and the packets that attempt to create a new connection in such a
state are dropped with a warning in the log (verbose_packet_drop="yes").
Note that the state resolves itself with time as existing connections time out
or are closed by peers.
