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.
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.

interface changes) by Norman Feske.
Fix#2303
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.

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.
The default codepoint is now
Codepoint { Codepoint::INVALID } /* value 0xfffe */
in contrast to
Codepoint { Input::Event::INVALID } /* value 0 */
Issue #3483
A client may register a signal handler to be notified whenever the
RTC value was changed, i.e., a mis-configured clock was synchronized,
by calling 'set_sigh()'.

To enable the use of uncached DMA buffers as RX and TX communication
buffers in between driver (service) and client, introduce a cache
attribute in the constructor of Nic::Session_component
Ref #3291
This patch equips the 'Block::Connection' with a framework API for the
implementation of robust block-session clients that perform block I/O in
an asynchronous fashion.
An application-defined 'JOB' type, inherited from 'Connection::Job',
encapsulates the application's context information associated with a
block operation.
The lifecycle of the jobs is implemented by the 'Connection' and driven
by the application's invokation of 'Connection::update_jobs'. The
'update_jobs' mechanism takes three hook functions as arguments, which
implement the applications-defined policy for producing and consuming
data, and for the completion of jobs.
Issue #3283
As a preparatory step for introducing the new block-client API, we have
to turn the 'Block::Connection' into a class template. The template
argument will be used to tie an application-defined job type to the
block connection.
Issue #3283
This patch adds support for manually triggering the wakeup of the packet
sink by the source. This way, a packet source becomes able to marshal
batches of submissions or unmarshal batches of acknowledgements before
yielding the control over to the sink.
Issue #3283
This patch removes the blocking Block::Session::sync RPC function and
adds the asynchronous operations SYNC and TRIM to the block session's
packet-stream interface.
Even though the patch adjusts all block components to the interface
change, the components keep the former blocking handling of sync
internally for now because of the design of the 'Block::Driver'
interface. This old interface is not worth changing. We should instead
migrate the block servers step by step to the new
'Block::Request_stream' API.
Fixes#3274
The new request tag allows a block-session client to uniquely correlate
acknowledgements with outstanding requests. Until now, this was possible
for read and write operations by taking the value of the request's
packet-stream offset. However, SYNC and TRIM requests do not carry any
packet-stream payload and thereby lack meaningful offset values. By
introducing the notion of a 'tag', we can support multiple outstanding
requests of any type and don't need to overload the meaning of the
'offset' value.
Issue #3274
This patch splits the 'Request' definition into smaller types that are
suitable for the client-side API too.
The new 'Operation' type comprises the block operation's type (opcode)
and the operation's arguments (block number, block count).
The former 'Request::operation_defined' is now 'Operation::valid'.
The 'Request' aggregates an 'Operation', which changes its object
layout.
Note that this commit relaxes the bit-precise definition of 'Request' to
facilitate the use of 'unsigned long' where appropriate, in particular
for the request tag (which should correspond to an 'Id_space::Id'). The
originally bit-precise definition was pursued to allow the sharing of
the 'Request' type between SPARK and C++ code. However, it turns out
that defining a native type in each language and a (set of) converting
constructors is a more natural approach.
