This commit updates the used firmware images for the iwlwifi device
to latest available ones (supported by the current 6.1.x driver).
It also removes old firmware images that by now are not used anymore.
Fixes#4807.
Recent devices are configured with 4096 RX pages that lead to an
increased memory usage. For the moment lower the amount to 2048
and treat in potientially lower throughput for more conservative
memory consumption.
Fixes#4801.
The get_cycles() call within the test doesn't apply to RDTSC
access when running on ARM but to arch_timer_read_counter, which
is an empty function pointer. By setting it to a function that
returns Genode::Trace::timestamp() we can enable the test for ARM.
Issue #4775
- move metadata specific to isochronous transfers from the descriptor
into the content of USB-session packets
- restore support for 32 in-flight packets in the USB C API
Fixes#4749
The additional files provide Chacha implementation in case
may_use_simd() returns false because in_interrupt() returns true.
Related to issue #4778, commit "lx_emul: track irq state changes"
Implement udelay for all architectures within common lx_emul code,
remove driver-specific version.
Always do busy looping in udelay and use cpu_relax()
like the original Linux code. Thereby, we profit from architecture specific
instructions (cpu cool down), and jiffies are updated if irqs are on.
Ref genodelabs/genode#4778
There are rare use-cases where cpu_relax is used inside a busy loop
(i2c bus functions), which only will break when the jiffies counter
reaches a specific value.
Because of the cooperative scheduling done in lx_emul, no timer
interrupt will break such a loop. As a workaround, we check for
necessary jiffies updates inside cpu_relax if interrupts are enabled.
Ref genodelabs/genode#4778
To be able to check for interrupts being on or off,
the enabling and disabling is tracked in lx_emul.
When interrupts get received, they have to be turned off.
Ref genodelabs/genode#4778
Do not start and stop idle ticking within the timer interrupt
routine, but do it around the whole Lx_kit scheduling, which
is always called when Linux code gets active again, either
because of backend signals, interrupts, or timing signals.
This commit implicitly reverts the (incomplete) solution of
issue #4550

Linux kernel static functions usb_string_sub() and usb_get_langid() were
made accessible to implement robust string rerieval.

Workers are only summoned by the manager or when there are no workers on
a work queue. In case a work in front of a work queue depends on a work
behind it, a deadlock may occur. To solve this Linux spawns a rescue
worker using timers. Timing of Linux based drivers is currently reworked
and not reliable. Therefore, we increase the number of workers that are
spawned from 1 to 3 per work queue in order to resolve possible
deadlocks.
Fixes#4762
The 'file_size' type denotes the size of files on disk in bytes. On
32-bit architectures it is larger than the size_t, which refers to
in-memory object sizes.
Whereas the use of 'file_size' is appropriate for ftruncate and seek, it
is not a suitable type for the parameters of read/write operations
because those operations refer to in-memory buffers.
This patch replaces the use of 'file_size' by size_t. However, since it
affects all sites where the read/write interface is uses, it takes the
opportunity to replace the C-style (pointer, size) arguments by
'Byte_range_ptr' and 'Const_byte_range_ptr'.
Issue #4706
Due to lacking hardware access the driver was test with one RTL8188EE
based device, namely [10ec:8179] (rev 01), only. As the access to the
PCI config space is restricted the driver loads the non power-saving
FW and the driver port is therefor only tested with that. The
accesses are documented should we choose to support them one way or
another later on.
The 'wifi.run' run script as well as Sculpt served as testing ground
where the driver worked fine so far.
Fixes#4714.
Check if we are able to submit the Usb packet before attempting to
allocate it. In case the queue is already full we wait until another
pending packet is freed.
Fixes#4701.
Genode build system allows to easily enable 'ccache' for builds. This
change allows to enable using 'ccache' also for build of reference
Linux kernel used during porting device drivers.
To enable 'ccache' it is enough to pass value of 'CC' variable when
executing Linux build but this build by default depends on time when it
is built which causes 'ccache' misses. To solve this issue additional
flags are passed to make build independent from time, current user and
host on which build is performed.
Issue #4718
The old 'Io_response_handler::io_progress_response' interface has been
replaced by the 'Vfs::Env::User::wakeup_vfs_user' (issue #4697). The
remaining 'read_ready_response' method is now hosted in the
appropriately named 'Read_ready_response_handler'.
Issue #4706
By adding a 'write_ready' interface following the lines of the existing
'read_ready', VFS plugins become able to propagate the (de-)saturation
of I/O buffers to the VFS user. This information is important when using
a non-blocking file descriptor for writing into a TCP socket. Once the
application observes EAGAIN, it expects a subsequent 'select' call to
return as soon as new I/O buffer space becomes available.
Before this patch, the select call would always return under this
condition, causing an unnecessarily busy write loop.
Issue #4697
Replace usb_kill_urb() by usb_unlink_urb() in the timeout handler for
control URBs, as usb_kill_urb() may block and is not allowed to be
called in IRQ/bottom half contexts.
Fixes#4681
Lack of MSI-X support in DDE Linux causes a timeout when the Intel AX211
tries to call back into the driver while loading the PNVM file while
interrupts are still disabled.
With the patch picked up from QubesOS the card works on an X1 Nano G2:

Issue #4663
To prevent caching side-effects of USB DMA memory taken from the packet stream
all allocations of USB packets need to be on separated cachelines at least.
