If a user has e.g. /tftpboot/x86 as directory and configures
base_dir=/tftboot and offset_dir=/x86, this leads to bad behavior
as the load module creates a symlink
/tftpboot/x86/<builddir> -> <absolut_builddir>
in this case instead of the desired
/tftpboot/x86 -> <absolut_builddir>
Furthermore, the module works on
/tftpboot/x86/config-00-00-00-00-00-00
and
/tftpboot/x86/<builddir>/config-00-00-00-00-00-00
afterwards, which looks bad too. As there is no warning at all, this can
be hard to debug. The commit adds an appropriate check with error message and
exit -1 on an existing directory.
Fixes#1630
If just one multiboot kernel module was loaded after bender, the
relocation was skipped before. This resulted in a corrupt binary image
on ELF loading if the regions of the boot module and the final program
overlap. Now, all modules are copied below 2 GiB (and out of the way)
before ELF loading.
Fixes#1624
Bender upstream issue is TUD-OS/morbo#4
The base-hw kernel on x86_64 currently assumes 254 MiB of RAM. The RAM
region is subtracted from the I/O mem allocator and therefore this range
is not available for device I/O.
If qemu is started with -m 128, the region for (emulated) PCI config
space access lies within this region and I/O mem allocation in the
pci_drv will fail. Giving qemu more RAM moves the PCI config space out
of the 254 MiB region, making the run/libc_ffat scenario with acpi work.
This repository is superseded by the 'dde_bsd' repository. Though
OSSv4 served us well, its future is uncertain and having active
upstream development is preferable. In addition the ported Intel
HD Audio driver did not work on any Thinpad model newer than T60.
Issue #1498.
These audio drivers enable support for Intel HD Audio (Azalia) and
Ensoniq AudioPCI (ES1370) compatible soundcards. They are ported
from OpenBSD 5.7.
Fixes#1498.
Physical CPU quota was previously given to a thread on construction only
by directly specifying a percentage of the quota of the according CPU
session. Now, a new thread is given a weighting that can be any value.
The physical counter-value of such a weighting depends on the weightings
of the other threads at the CPU session. Thus, the physical quota of all
threads of a CPU session must be updated when a weighting is added or
removed. This is each time the session creates or destroys a thread.
This commit also adapts the "cpu_quota" test in base-hw accordingly.
Ref #1464
This patch improves the C++ parser to accommodate the tools for
generating the functional specification from source code:
* Added support for class definitions prefixed with a
namespace as promoted by Genode's coding style.
* Improves robustness of the parsing of function arguments by
considering nameless arguments in function declarations, default
values, varargs.
* Consider const qualfiers in return types.
* Added support for the override, constexpr keywords.
* Parsing of overloaded operators.
* Improved handling of type definitions.
* Added parsing of template arguments.
* Handling of template constructors.
The port uses the Cortex-A9 private timer for the kernel and an EPIT as
user timer. It was successfully tested on the Wandboard Quad and the CuBox-i
with the signal test. It lacks L2-cache and Trustzone support by now.
Thanks to Praveen Srinivas (IIT Madras, India) and Nikolay Golikov (Ksys Labs
LLC, Russia). This work is partially based on their contributions.
Fix#1467
The boot modules assembled by the generated boot_modules.s file is
accessed from core using struct Bm_header. Unfortunately the assembler
.long directive is synonym to .int [1] and thus has the same size as the
C++ int type and *not* long. Use the matching assembly type .quad in
boot_modules.s when generating the file for 64-bit platforms such as
x86_64.

This patch contains the initial code needed to build and bootstrap the
base-hw kernel on x86 64-bit platforms. It gets stuck earlier
because the binary contains 64-bit instructions, but it is started in
32-bit mode. The initial setup of page tables and switch to long mode is
still missing from the crt0 code.
On each execution the output buffer is overriden when run_genode_until
is executed multiple times. Run scripts, that depend on extracting
information after several execution steps, e.g. noux_net_netcat, will
fail to do so. Therefore, we append the newly captured log output to
the old output buffer.
Issue #1327.
The 'check_port_source' checks whether all remote sources defined for a given
port are currently available. It returns zero, when all remote resources are
available.
Fix#1430
The mkfs.ext2 heuristics select the "small" ext2 usage type, which does
not fit well with GiB-sized pen drives. For example, the block size is
just 1024 bytes compared to 4096 for "default". Therefore, we enforce
the default usage type as this fits our use case of dumping the image to
USB sticks better.
The USB Armory is almost the same as the i.MX53-QSB but it uses only
one of the two RAM banks available in i.MX53. Furthermore we use the USB
Armory only with Trustzone enabled.
