The former declaration of the IPv4 packet did not only use the questionable
tool of implementation-defined C++ bitsets but also lacked access to flags
"don't fragment" (DF) and "more fragments" (MF). This commit replaces the
C++ bitsets by using the register framework and introduces accessors for the
missing flags.

This commit introduces a C-API to the Uplink session, as well as to
serve as a Block service. It can be used by drivers ported from
C-only projects, like the Linux kernel, or BSD kernels for instance.
Fix#4226
Adapts Dir_file_system::open_composite_dirs in a way that it returns "success"
when the leaf node of the path is an empty directory but "lookup failed", as
usual, if one of the other directories on the way to the leaf node is empty.
I couldn't find a technical reason why we used to return "lookup failed" when
only the leaf node was empty.
The commit also adds a test for en empty root directory and empty
sub-directories to the fs_query run script.
Fixes#4198
Introduces the notion of a transaction that consists of one or more
messages. Whereby a message has a read or write direction and consists
of one or more bytes.
Issue #4170Fixes#4169
This patch moves the utility from the app/text_area to os/vfs.h to make
it easier to use by other components. By hosting the 'New_file' as a
friend alongside the 'Directory', we can now pass a 'Directory' as
constructor argument, which is consistent with other utilities such as
'File_content'.
As a further improvement, the new version supports the implicit creation
of the directory hierarchy leading to the new file.
Issue #4032
For fs_file_systems, reads are limited to the size of the packets from the
File_system session. Hence, we cannot read the large files in one go.
This fix is particularly helpful for fonts_fs, as it enables including font
files from a File_system.
genodelabs/genode#4135
With the update to GCC 10, the compiler stopped with an error when compiling
places where a MAC address is copied from outside into a packed object using
the Net::Netaddress::copy method (e.g. in
Net::Arp_packet::dst_mac(Mac_address)):
! error: writing 6 bytes into a region of size 4 [-Werror=stringop-overflow=]
While trying to find a clean solution for this error, I found posts on
gcc.gnu.org and github that stated that the size calculations that cause these
errors are incorrect. Indeed, I could verify that the actual size of the two
regions was static and exactly the same in places were the error occured.
Furthermore, I couldn't find a way of making it more clear to the compiler
that the sizes are the same. By accident, we found that using the address of
the first element of the array that forms the second region instead of the
array address itself, somehow circumvents the error.
Fixes#4109
With the update to GCC 10 the compiler used to warn when using the internet
checksum functions on packet classes (like in
Net::Ipv4_packet::update_checksum):
warning: converting a packed ‘Net::[PACKET_CLASS]’ pointer
(alignment 1) to a ‘const uint16_t’ {aka ‘const short
unsigned int’} pointer (alignment 2) may result in an
unaligned pointer value
Apparently, the 'packed' attribute normally used on packet classes sets the
alignment of the packet class to 1. However, for the purpose of the
internet-checksum functions, we can assume that the packet data has no
alignment. This is expressed by casting the packet-object pointer to a pointer
of the new packed helper struct 'Packed_uint16' that contains only a single
uint16_t member before handing it over to the checksum function (instead of
casting it to a uint16_t pointer).
Ref #4109
Introduce a new _overflowed state variable to indicate whether the
horizontal boundary was reached already and to omit subsequent character
output.
This state is necessary to maintain a valid cursor position at all
times. The _overflowed attribute is reset once the cursor is moved into
a valid position again.
To harmonise the bounds checking for _cursor_pos modifications, the
`constrain()` method was added.
Fixesgenodelabs/genode#4093
Also fixes a bug in `vpa()` and `vpb()` which moved the cursor
horizontally instead of vertically.
* The device XML information dataspace is only provided,
when the client's policy states `info="yes"`
* The device XM information gets changed to include the
physical resource names (I/O memory and IRQ addresses)
instead of virtual ids and page offset
Fix#4077
This is a follow-up fix for "Streamline platform-device API on ARM".
There is an ambiguity of the 'local_addr' method between the inherited
'Attached_dataspace' and the local declaration, which results in the
double application of the sub-page Range::start.
Issue #4075
This API rework eases the access to memory-mapped I/O registers and
interrupts when using the platform driver. It introduces the notions of
- Platform::Device - one device obtained from a platform session
- Platform::Device::Mmio - locally-mapped MMIO registers of a device
- Platform::Device::Irq - interface for receiving device interrupts
The patch touches several drivers. Some drivers would require a
significant structural change to adopt the new API (e.g., net/virtio,
dde_linux drivers, imx gpio). In these cases, the patch adds
compatibility shims meant to be temporary. In other cases (e.g., imx
i2c), the adaptation was simple enough to carry through.
Fixes#4075
This patch extends the 'Platform_session::alloc_dma_buffer' interface
with a 'Cache' argument that corresponds to the argument accepted by
'Ram_allocator::alloc', which is used by the platform driver under the
hood.
Since the x86 platform driver used to be hardwired to allocate DMA
buffers as UNCACHED, I adjusted all drivers by specifying the UNCACHED
argument. Right now, this is needed as a hint for core to steer the
allocation of I/O page tables. Once we eliminate the need for such hints
(by introducing an explicit 'Region_map::attach_dma' operation), we can
revisit the drivers individually because cached DMA buffers should
generally be fine on the x86 architecture.
Issue #2243
This change avoids many repetetive Genode:: prefixes, making the code
easier to read. The patch also includes a few consistency fixes
regarding include guards and file headers. It also renames
Platform_device::String to Platform_device::Device:name.
Issue #2243
This patch adds the designated alternative to Dataspace::phys_addr to
the platform-session interface. Under the hood, the platform driver
still calls Dataspace::phys_addr but it should eventuelly become the
only caller before we can abolish this function.
Issue #2243
This patch changes the 'alloc_aligned' interface as follows:
- The former 'from' and 'to' arguments are replaced by a single
'range' argument.
- The distinction of the use cases of regular allocations vs.
address-constrained allocations is now overed by a dedicated
overload instead of relying on a default argument.
- The 'align' argument has been changed from 'int' to 'unsigned'
to be better compatible with 'addr_t' and 'size_t'.
Fixes#4067
The vfs pipe plugin can now be used as named pipe which anables data
transfer via file handles from one component to another. E.g. if one
would like to send data from component A to stdin of a libc component B,
one can do so by simply writing to that fifo file.
Issue #3583
* Update the 'packet_size' information with the actual length for
each isoc frame to be able to handle short reads at the client side.
* Copy the whole transfer buffer because the host controller stores
the data at the original offsets, i.e., the buffer is not densely
packed.
Fixes#4018.
Adds new Uplink session interface, the corresponding client side (Client,
Connection), and the corresponding API archives. An Uplink session is almost
the same as a NIC session with the difference that the roles of the end points
are swapped. An Uplink client is the one that provides a network interface
(for instance, a NIC driver) whereas an Uplink server is the one that uses
that network interface (for instance, a networking stack).
Therefore, in contrast to the NIC session, MAC address and link state come from
the Uplink client. The link state is reflected through the lifetime of an
Uplink session: The client requests the session only when the link state is
"UP" and closes it whenever the link state becomes "DOWN" again. The MAC
address is transmitted from the Uplink client to the Uplink server as an
argument of the session request.

This commit restores the diag feature for selecting diagnostic output of
services provided by core. This feature became unavailable with commit
"base: remove dependency from deprecated APIs", which hard-wired the
diag flag for core services to false.
To control this feature, three possible policies can be expressed in a
routing target of init's configuration:
* Forcing silence by specifying 'diag="no"'
* Enabling diagnostics by specifying 'diag="yes"'
* Forwarding the preference of the client by omitting the 'diag'
attribute

issue #3822
To simplify writing native VirtIO drivers for Genode add helper classes
representing VirtIO device and queue. The queue implementation should
be platform independant. The device abstraction however is closely tied
to the VirtIO transport being used (PCI/MMIO). Both PCI and MMIO
implementations expose the same public API so the actual driver logic
should be the same regardless of which transport is used.
Its also important to note that the PCI version of Virtio::Device
currently does not support MSI-X interrupts. Unfortunately my kowledge
about PCI bus is very limited and my main area of interest was to get
VirtIO drivers working on virt_qemu ARM/Aarch64 platform. As such all
the VirtIO drivers I plan to submit will work with PCI bus, but might
not use some extended capabilities.

unknown pins, use '_with_gpio' instead
- use 'Gpio::Pin' data type instead of POD 'unsigned'
issue #3900
The combination of Net::Mac_address and
Genode::ascii_to(Net::Mac_address) required shaky quirks in several
places because GCC is not able to resolve the ascii_to overload if
base/xml_node.h was included to early. The current solution moves the
several ascii_to overloads "closer" to the Net types by putting them
into the Net namespace, where GCC reliably picks them up.
Hence, co-locating the ascii_to() utility with the overload type in the
same scope/namespace is good practice.
This patch removes the now obsolete <nic/xml_node.h> header file.
- base/cancelable_lock.h becomes base/lock.h
- all members become private within base/lock.h
- solely Mutex and Blockade are friends to use base/lock.h
Fixes#3819
Until now, Genode's framebuffer session interface was based on the
RGB565 pixel format. This patch changes the pixel format to 32-bit
XRGB where the X part is ignored. It adapts all graphical applications
and device drivers accordingly.
The patch also adjusts the users of the drivers_interactive packages,
assigning 64 MiB RAM and 1500 caps to the drivers subsystem, which is
sufficient for covering high resolutions at 32 bits per pixel and to
accommodate multi-component USB HID input stacks.
Fixes#3784
- Since Genode::strncpy is not 100% compatible with the POSIX
strncpy function, better use a distinct name.
- Remove bogus return value from the function, easing the potential
enforcement of mandatory return-value checks later.
Fixes#3752
This patch changes the 'Single_file_system' to return NO_PERM only if
the to-be-unlinked file corresponds to the single file. This way, a
<rom> co-mounted with a <ram> file-system does not stand in the way of
unlinking files from the <ram>. The concrete symptom occurred the
following scenario:
<vfs>
<dir name="home">
<ram/>
<rom name="..."/>
</dir>
</vfs>
The following sequence of commands wrongly resulted in "Operation not
permitted":
$ mkdir -p /home/a/b/c
$ rm -f /home/a/b/c/d
In this case, rm should not fail (unlink should return ENOENT)
Fixes#3690
When specifying "/" or "" as rel_path to the 'Directory' constructor,
the constructed directory should refer to the same directory. The
implementation of the join utility did not consider this corner case. It
occurred during the attempt to use fs_query with "/" given as path.
This patch also adds a Directory::Entry::dir accessor that returns true
if the entry is a directory.
Fixes#3630
This patch adds a special variant of a 'Content_producer' called
'Xml_producer', which allows the direct use of an 'Xml_generator'
for generating the ROM-module content.
This patch extracts the child-management functionality from the init
component into a new library called "sandbox". The library API is
located at 'os/include/os/sandbox.h'.
The sandbox API allows for the interaction of the component with the
sandboxed children by providing locally implemented services. This
mechanism is illustrated by the new test at os/src/test/sandbox.
Issue #3601
This patch extends the 'Buffered_xml' utility with a new constructor
that fills the buffer with the output of an 'Xml_generator'. It thereby
presents an easy way to generate XML to be consumed locally.
The patch also add a deprecation mark to the original 'xml' accessor
because copying 'Xml_node' objects (here as return value) is dangerous.
The new 'with_xml_node' method should instead be used to access the XML
content stored in the buffer.
Fixes#3602
`volatile` effectively prevents instruction reordering by the compiler
and fixes an issue with -O3 compiled components.
Note, this commit does not address further arguments regarding memory
barriers and volatile voiced in issue #693.

This is a follow-up patch for issue #1784 that solves two
inconsistencies.
- The Vfs::Timestamp::INVALID matches File_system::Timestamp::INVALID
- The Noux libc plugin tests for Timestamp::INVALID instead of a
positive value.
The patch fixes the mtime info as shown in directory listings in
Sculpt's inspect window.
Add a new plugin for creating pipes between pairs of VFS handles. It is
intended to replace the libc_pipe plugin, one of the last remaining libc
plugins.
In contrast to the libc_pipe plugin, this plugin defers cross-handle
notification until I/O signal handling rather than block and unblock
readers using a semaphore. This is a performance regression in the case
of multiple threads blocking on a pipe, but shall be an intermediate
mechanism pending renovations within the libc VFS and threading layers.
As a side effect, threads blocked on a pipe might not be resumed until
the main thread suspends and dispatches I/O signals.
The "test-libc_pipe" test has been adjusted to use the VFS pipe plugin
and tests both local pipes and pipes hosted remotely in the VFS server.

This change allows for the conversion of directory entries in place
(i.e., in the VFS server) and anticipates the potential future merge of
both types into one.
Issue #3547
This patch adds support for watch notifications for the
'Readonly_value_file_system', which is often used by VFS plugins to
implement pseudo files. It thereby enables VFS clients to respond to
VFS-plugin events (think of terminal resize) dynamically.
Fixes#3523
When the construction of a member of Packet_stream_*::Rpc_object after
the _cap member threw an exception, the object was not dissolved from
the entrypoint although the Rpc_object vanished at this point. This was
because the call to 'manage()' happened in the initializer list (for the
_cap member instantiation). The destruction of the _cap member then did
not dissolve the object.
This first fix moves the call to 'manage()' into the constructor body
after the instantiation of all other members. A more sophisticated fix
would use some kind of 'Managed_object' life-time guard that manages an
object on construction and dissolves on destruction.
Ref #3525
Nowadays, we use standard command-line tools like vim to edit init
configurations dynamically, which alleviates the need for a custom CLI.
The CLI-monitor component was too limited for use cases like Sculpt
anyway.
The patch also removes the ancient (and untested for long time)
terminal_mux.run script, which used to be the only remaining user of the
CLI monitor.
Issue #3512
This patch extends the 'File_system::Status',
'File_system::Directory_entry', and the related 'Vfs' types with
the following additional information:
- Distinction between continuous and transactional files (Node_type)
(issue #3507)
- Readable, writeable, and executable attributes (Node_rwx),
replacing the former 'mode' bits
(issue #3030)
The types 'Node_rwx', 'Node_type' are defined twice,
once for the VFS (vfs/types.h) and once for the 'File_system'
session (file_system_session/file_system_session.h).
Similarly, there is a direct correspondance between
'Vfs::Directory_service::Dirent' and 'File_system::Directory_entry'.
This duplication of types follows the existing pattern of keeping the
VFS and file-system session independent from each other.
The Press event is actually a Press_char event with a default codepoint.
