For asynchronously provided sessions, the parent has to maintain the
session state as long as the server hasn't explicitly responded to a
close request. For this reason, the lifetime of such session states is
bound to the server, not the client.
When the server responds to a close request, the session state gets
freed. The 'session_response' implementation does not immediately
destroy the session state but delegates the destruction to a client-side
callback, which thereby also notifies the client. However, the code did
not consider the case where the client has completely vanished at
session-response time. In this case, we need to drop the session state
immediately.
Fixes#2391
The base class of Registered must provide a virtual destructor to enable
safe deletion with just a base class pointer. This requirement can be
lifted by using Registered_no_delete in places where the deletion
property is not needed.
Fixes#2331
Ldso now does not automatically execute static constructors of the
binary and shared libraries the binary depends on. If static
construction is required (e.g., if a shared library with constructor is
used or a compilation unit contains global statics) the component needs
to execute the constructors explicitly in Component::construct() via
Genode::Env::exec_static_constructors().
In the case of libc components this is done by the libc startup code
(i.e., the Component::construct() implementation in the libc).
The loading of shared objects at runtime is not affected by this change
and constructors of those objects are executed immediately.
Fixes#2332
The test used to rely on init's formerly built-in policy of answering
resource requests with slack memory, if available. Since init no longer
responds to resource requests in an autonomous way, we use a dynamically
configured sub-init instance as runtime for the test. This instance, in
turn, is monitored and controlled such that resource requests are
result in quota upgrades. The monitoring component is implemented in
the same test-resource_request program as the test. Both roles are
distinguished by the "role" config attribute.
This is a follow-up to "init: explicit response to resource requests".
This patch improves init's dynamic reconfigurability with respect to
adjustments of the RAM quota assigned to the children.
If the RAM quota is decreased, init withdraws as much quota from the
child's RAM session as possible. If the child's RAM session does not
have enough available quota, a resource-yield request is issued to
the child. Cooparative children may respond to such a request by
releasing memory.
If the RAM quota is increased, the child's RAM session is upgraded.
If the configuration exceeds init's available RAM, init re-attempts
the upgrade whenever new slack memory becomes available (e.g., by
disappearing other children).
This patch enables init to apply changes of any server's <provides>
declarations in a differential way. Servers can in principle be extended
by new services without re-starting them. Of course, changes of the
<provides> declarations may affect clients or would-be clients as this
information is taken into account for the session routing.
Under certain timing conditions, the test would end up flushing the
input from the input filter in a nested way, which ultimately resulted
in lost input events of the outer nesting level. This patch eliminates
this corner case and thereby stabilizes the key-repeat test.
* Increase test-thread count to trigger quota exceeding on all platforms
* Synchronize test-thread destruction, otherwise an half-destructed thread
object can lead to an error message of the thread to be destructed,
which causes a deadlock, when the destructed thread still holds the log lock
* Limit SMP settings for QEMU to x86 (Ref #2307)
The signal_1/2/3 objects (which are threads) are in destruction, but still
signals are send to them. When the signal arrive and the memory for the
signal_1/2/3 object is already invalid we operate on stale memory and all
the locking infrastructure of the Thread don't work anymore.
Be more robust, explicitly wait for the termination of the thread.
Issue #2284
This patch improves the accuracy of init's quota-saturation feature
(handing out all slack quota to a child by specifying an overly high RAM
quota for the child) and makes the RAM preserved by init configurable.
The preservation is specified as follows:
! <config>
! ...
! <resource name="RAM" preserve="1M"/>
! ...
! </config>
If not specified, init has a reasonable default of 160K (on 32 bit) and
320K (on 64 bit).
The input_filter is the successor of the input_merger. In addition to
merging input streams, the component applies several forms of input
transformations such as the application of keyboard layouts.
Issue #2264
This patch eliminates the need for a global allocator by passing the
parent-service registry as argument to the 'Slave::Policy' constructor.
Fixes#2269
The support has two parts. First, a VFS plugin now gets passed an
I/O-response handler callback on construction, which informs users of the
VFS that an I/O event occurred. This enables, for example, the libC to
check if blocking read can be completed. Further, the VFS file I/O
interface provides now functions for suspendable reads, i.e.,
queue_read() and complete_read().
The new utility at 'os/static_parent_services.h' allows the creation of
a registry of parent services at compile time and thereby eliminates the need
for dynamic memory allocations whenever the set of services is known at
compile time as is the case for most uses of 'Slave::Policy'. The commit
showcases the utility in the bomb test.
This commit enables compile-time warnings displayed whenever a deprecated
API header is included, and adjusts the existing #include directives
accordingly.
Issue #1987
For all tests
* use Component::construct instead of main
* use new connection constructors with env argument
* use log instead of printf
For some tests
* replace signal receivers with signal handlers
* replace global static variables with Main class members
* remove unnecessary multithreading
* model test steps as classes that are independent from each other and managed
by Main as constructibles
* use references instead of pointers and exceptions instead of error codes
* use Attached_* helpers intead of doing attach/detach manually
* use helpers like String, Id_space, Registry instead of arrays and lists
* make the run script suitable for automated execution and conclusion

In the past, the Genode::destroy, that is called by the RAM-FS-chunk destructors,
issued Allocator::free instead of the C++ delete. Therefore it was possible to
use the size argument of Allocator::free for the allocation tracker in the
RAM-FS-chunk test. Nowadays, we have to keep track of the allocation sizes
ourselves because delete doesn't hand over the size.

The FB Block Adapter in os/src/test visualizes a block session via a
Framebuffer session. As far as I can see, it is not a test but rather
the base for a bump-in-the-wire component. However, for this role it
currently lacks a Block back-end. As it also would have to be updated to
use the new base API I removed it instead, leaving only its git
history as inspiration if someone needs such a component in the future.
Fixes#2245
Ref #1987
The init component used to create the CPU/RAM/PD/ROM sessions (the child
environment) for its children by issuing session requests to its parent,
which is typically core. This policy was hard-wired. This patch enables
the routing of the environment sessions of the children of init
according to the configured routing policy.
Because there is no hard-wired policy regarding the environment sessions
anymore, routes to respective services must be explicitly declared in
the init configuration. For this reason, the patch adjusts several run
scripts in this respect.
This patch removes the outdated '<if-args>' special handling of session
labels. The '<if-args>' feature will eventually be removed completely
