To circumvent problems on platforms with shaky hotplug interrupt notification
introduce a "poll" configuration option to the driver, which enables
polling for connector changes.
Fix#2004
The whole XML comment has to be parsed as one XML tag to support strange
but valid combinations like
<!---->
<!--invisible-tag></invisible-tag-->
Fixes#1424
The vanilla 'schedule_timeout()' Linux function expects a relative
timeout value. The first implementation of the wifi_drv, however, used
an absolute timeout value. This mismatch was overlooked when the
lx_kit, which adheres to the vanilla Linux semantics, was incoporated
in the driver.
Fixes#1990.
Instead of introducing a $(BASE_HW_DIR) variable that has to be defined in each
core makefile for the different base-hw targets, this commit replaces the
$(REP_DIR) variable usage in core.inc files with $(BASE_DIR)/../base-hw.

Quota_exceeded message are of no use during session construction, since
the arguments of the ram_quota are used and no upgrade can take place (the
session construction failed and is so not available for upgrade)
Fixes#1983
Allocating a packet in the packet stream without a payload is not
allowed. Therefore we have to allocate CTRL message packets, that do
not have a payload, with a bogus length instead.
Directory_service::leaf_path returns a pointer offset from its argument
so pass member data rather than a constructor argument to leaf_path.
Issue #1775
This is an interim fix for solving the quota leakage problem of
the platform driver on x86 platforms. To properly fix that problem
one has to track which dataspaces where created by the platform driver,
so that freeing the dataspace and reversing the quota transfer is done
on correct dataspaces only.
Refer #1980
This patch removes the outdates doc/architecture.txt since the
topics are covered by the book. We keep repos/os/doc/init.txt
because it contains a few details not present in the book (yet).
The patch streamlines the terminology a bit. Furthermore, it
slightly adjusts a few source-code comments to improve the book's
functional specification chapter.
Instead of passing on the Noux 'config' ROM dataspace to child processes,
provide a separate configuration for each Noux child, which is either
'<config/>' or '<config ld_verbose="yes"/>', depending on the
configuration of this attribute for the Noux process. This is also a
workaround to prevent multiple insertion of the same 'config' ROM
dataspace capability into the dataspace registry.
Issue #1978
* Adds public timeout syscalls to kernel API
* Kernel::timeout installs a timeout and binds a signal context to it that
shall trigger once the timeout expired
* With Kernel::timeout_max_us, one can get the maximum installable timeout
* Kernel::timeout_age_us returns the time that has passed since the
calling threads last timeout installation
* Removes all device specific back-ends for the base-hw timer driver and
implements a generic back-end taht uses the kernel timeout API
* Adds assertions about the kernel timer frequency that originate from the
requirements of the the kernel timeout API and adjusts all timers
accordingly by using the their internal dividers
* Introduces the Kernel::Clock class. As member of each Kernel::Cpu object
it combines the management of the timer of the CPU with a timeout scheduler.
Not only the timeout API uses the timeout scheduler but also the CPUs job
scheduler for installing scheduling timeouts.
* Introduces the Kernel::time_t type for timer tic values and values inherited
from timer tics (like microseconds).
Fixes#1972
To avoid the need for adapting the names of the core restricted syscalls
each time we add a public syscall (restricted names must always be
greater than public names), let restricted syscall names simply start at
100 (we should never have more than 100 public syscalls).
Ref #1972
Building a kernel test produced an error about a missing config
apparently because of recent changes in the run tool. So, we add
a dummy XML node as config.
