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
The 'build.mk' file checks if the tool chain to be used supports the
'-static' and '-fno-stack-protector' flags, but this check always fails
for the current Genode tool chain because it cannot create executable
files without explicitly specifying the 'crt0' and library files to be
linked, which the check doesn't.
This patch removes the compiler check.
Fixes#358.
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 slab allocators for small object sizes, do it the usual way otherwise.
This patch is related to #363. Using this optimization may be a viable
alternative to switching to the FreeBSD's malloc implementation.
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
Missing parantheses around the calculation of last byte address in a UDP
Packet led to dereferencing the wrong value, thereby the UDP checksum
calculation failed, whenever an odd byte-count UPD packet was calculated.
Many thanks to Markus Partheymueller who discovered this issue and its
resolution.
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.
The exception initialization and handling in gcc_eh allocates early (_main)
memory before executing main. In Vancouver the virtual
region from [0,VM size) must be reserved. Vancouver fails if the memory
allocated by the exception handling and the static objects was allocated
inside the [0, VM size) area.
To circumvent the situation allocate the first memory pieces for the heap
from the bss.
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.
Move the context area close to the end of the virtual user available address,
so that Vancouver can obtain as much as possible of the lower virtual address
range for VMs.
Use virtual regions for memory used during core initialization behind context
area. Enables us to start Vancouver VMs up to 1280 MiB, which requires
large virtual regions of contiguous aligned memory.
Exclude used virtual regions of echo and of pager thread in core.
The alternative weighted scheduler might lead to some threads don't make
any progress anymore (take for example the signal test). So we have to use
the fixed priority scheduler also in the kernel configuration for 64 Bit.
The first metadata-block, which is inherent part of the allocator object
itself has a fixed size which isn't suitable enough for some 64bit platforms
(e.g. core's RAM-allocator on a 64bit platform with lots of different regions).
This commit let the block size be address-width aware.
In sigma0 normally no answer tag to a request/fault is created. It simply uses
the message tag received with the request. This doesn't work out when I/O ports
are requested. This patch constructs an appropriate answer tag. Moreover,
we have to enable I/O port protection in the kernel configuration.
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.
This commit comprises the following changes to enable L4Linux to use several
CPUs:
* change default configuration for x86 and ARM
* add atomic cmpxchg operation to l4re library
* implement l4_sleep (per thread)
* enable setting affinity for VCPUs and IRQs
* move "per CPU" section within linker-script (x86 only)
* introduce SMP run-script for pandaboard
* deactivate direct scheduler (Fiasco.OC syscall) access by L4Linux
The recently added 'Genode::Path' class makes it easy to create absolute
paths. With this patch the 'ffat_fs' server uses the 'Genode::Path' class
where possible instead of working with 'f_chdir()' and relative paths.
This also solves the problem reported in issue #355, which was caused by
storing a relative file name in the 'File' node.
Fixes#355.
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.
