The backend allocator for the slab is a sliced heap, which hands out
allocations with page-size granularity (4096 bytes). Therefore, the
slab-block size should also be about a multiple of the page size minus
some bytes of overhead.
Additional adjustments:
- The slab-block size and the default quota-upgrade amount for SIGNAL
sessions depends on the platform bit width now.
- The signal test also stresses the case of many managed context in one
session including creation and destruction of the used signal receiver
in repeated rounds.
- correctly catch and report non-existing root directories
- remove *all* leading slashes from root-directory attributes and
sanitize empty declarations to current working directory
The older SOAP EOI protocol is not supported with AMT version 9+. By default
the wsman tool will be used if installed.
RUN_OPT examples to enforce amtool or wsman:
--target amt --amt-tool wsman
--target amt --amt-tool amttool
Fixes#1251
The weak implementation was added for quite special purposes years ago
and is no longer needed. On the other hand, the weak attribute does not
help if the implementation ends up in a shared library, which first
resolves symbols locally before asking ldso (that includes the acutal
thread library) *shiver*
The original git:// URL produced the following error:
Cloning into 'jbig2dec'...
fatal: remote error: access denied or repository not exported: /jbig2dec.git
Until now, the rumpkernel based tools were installed with all symbols
included. This accounts for about 200MiB used space on 64Bit system.
Stripping the binaries prior to installation brings the space
requirements down to 20MiB.
Fixes#1245.
The clean rule is used to delete already built binaries as well as to
clean-up any left-overs from previous build attempts. If there was
no previous attempt just return true to prevent make from complaining.
Fixes#1245.
Before the pointer handling was removed from the nitpicker server, the
pointer was always the first view, which was skipped in the find_view
function. However, since we support pointer-less operation by now, we
have to consider all views starting with the top-most one.
The port was succesfully tested a echo test and lighttpd. DHCP over
OpenVPN is not tested and probably will not work out of the box.
Therefore, the ip address etc. need to be specified manually.
For now, only ethernet bridging (using a TAP device) is supported.
Fixes#1235.
This commit adds a port the jitterentropy library to Genode. As
backend on x86_{32,64} 'rdtsc' is used and on ARMv{6,7} the
performance-counter.
Fixes#1239.
These file systems are provided on-demand by loading a shared library
when the fstab node is traversed. By convention this library is named
after the file system it provides. For example a file system that
provides a 'random' file system node is called 'vfs_random.lib.so'. It
is still possible to give the the node another name in the vfs. The
following code snippts illustrates this matter:
! [...]
! <config>
! <libc>
! <vfs>
! <dir name="dev"> <jitterentropy name="random"/> </dir>
! </vfs>
! </libc>
! </config>
! [...]
Here the jitterentropy file system, implemented in
'vfs_jitterentropy.lib.so' provides a file system node named 'random'
in the 'dev' directory. When traversing the vfs section the libc will
try to load 'vfs_jitterentropy.lib.so' but programs may access the
file system only via '/dev/random'.
Fixes#1240.
