Enables symetric-multi-processor support in the Linux kernel configuration
used as base for the driver ports for PC. This is done to be compliant with
common usage of x86 drivers today.
Moreover, this commit uses the original kernel source for softirq/tasklet
implementation to get rid of the insufficient shadow implementation
in the lx_emul sources.

Prepare shadow implementations in spinlocks, pagetable defines,
and irq_stack assembler macros to be able to enable SMP on x86/PC.

Use common implementation used by wifi and (not merged) audio driver.
Avoid usage of lib/delay.c since lpj and loop_for_jiffies are not calibrated
for the ported drivers as done on native Linux during boot and leads to wrong
delays for usb and intel_fb.
Issue #4540
Adhere to include/linux/rcutiny.h behaviour, which sets the max timeout
for rcu_needs_cpu. Without the commit, in the most cases the timeout value
is zero (or random since the pointer is on stack uninitialized), which leads
to programming very short timeouts again and again, making the system never
idle.
Issue #4540
Querying the RFKILL state led to execution of the Lx_kit::scheduler by
the pthread running the wpa_supplicant. As this may not happen the
RFKILL state is now solely managed by the driver and only the cached
state is read by the supplicant.
Fixes#4537.
As accommodating the session component object is already taken care of
be the root component implementation, remove the remaining redundant
checks.
Fixes#4521.
Instead of allocating the stack via 'kmalloc' point it to the actual
stack used by the task. This addresses issues with the USB
host-controller driver where sometimes hub port enumeration is not
working.
Fixes#4522.
We locally disable 'address-of-packed-member' warnings because GCC complained
about possible alignment issues when returning a reference to a packed member
as naturally aligned pointer (for some reason only on arm_v8a). We know that
the member is aligned to NETDEV_ALIGN via __attribute__ and that the warning
is therefor unnecessary.
Ref #4519
We have to correct the CC_OPT_* variable for these files and used to do so via
phony pre-requisite for the corresponding object files because the correction
had to take place after the variable initialization in
import-lx_emul_common.inc and before the creation of the object files. However,
this caused the objects to always rebuild.
This commit fixes this issue by using Make's feature of target-specific
variables instead. The drawback of this solution is that we can no longer
override CC_OPT_* with a modification of its original value but instead have to
override with a completely new value. This is because otherwise, Make would
either complain about recursive assignment or produce an empty value.
Ref #4519
The strict conversion warnings were disabled during development when the
contrib code was still compiled with the wireguard lib. Now this isn't
necessary anymore as the contrib code is in the wireguard_lx_inc_dirs lib.
Ref #4520
With this commit, the WireGuard component exits with a descriptive uncaught
exception on invalid configurations or when the user attempts to re-configure
attributes that are not re-configurable (private_key, listen_port, interface).
This is particularly important when it comes to the not re-configurable private
key. If the component would just ignore the attempt to override the private
key, the user may come to believe that his old (potentially compromised)
private key is not in use anymore.
The fact that the component now exits instead shouldn't be a problem, as the
user would have to restart the component anyway in order to apply the new
attribute values.
The commit also extends the wg_reconfig run script to test that WireGuard
exits on the attempt to re-configure the private key.

Support removing peers by removing them from the component configuration.
This commit also introduces the wg_reconfig run script that tests adding and
removing single peers.
Ref #4520
I used to set the peer flags to 2 when adding a peer but merely because I
observed that value in my reference Linux. I now found that the flag 1<<1 means
'WGPEER_F_REPLACE_ALLOWEDIPS' and is ignored whenever the peer is new. Anyway,
I keep setting the flag but with the clearer enum name because the wg tool is
doing it as well when adding new peers and we want to stay close to how the
original code interacts.

Fixed#4519
Introduce an arch-specific wireguard lib that contains all code from the
former arch-specific target.mk files. This allows us to create a generic
target.mk that merely depends on the library and a dummy.cc file. The latter
ensures that building/linking of the target isn't skipped by the build system.
Ref #4519
The wireguard library's purpose is having a separate INC_DIR setting for the
files that need Linux include paths that would clash with Genode include paths.
Therefore, the name wireguard_lx_inc_dirs is more descriptive. Furthermore,
this allows us to create a new arch-specific wireguard lib in a future commit
in the course of preventing arch-specific target.mk's (a commonly used
approach in Genode).

With this commit, the Xoroshiro128+ PRNG in lx_emul/random.cc gets wrapped
by a new class that automatically re-seeds the PRNG with jitterentropy every
1024 * 1024 + random(0..4095) bytes of generated output.
Ref #4397
Both the Wifi driver and the WireGuard port used local implementations for
their source of randomness. Wifi used a Xoroshiro128+ PRNG for rapid generation
of random values but initialized this PRNG always with the same static seed
value. WireGuard, in contrast, requested each random byte directly from the
jitterentropy lib, which is considered to be very time intensive.
This commit removes the local variants of random.cc and introduces a new
centralized lx_emul/random.cc . The new variant combines the former approaches,
so, that jitterentropy is accessed only in order to generate a random seed for
a Xoroshiro128+ PRNG. Front-end requests for random values are then fulfilled
efficiently via the PRNG.
:Warning:
The output of the Xoroshiro128+ PRNG that is used in the new implementation of
the lx_emul randomness functions has known statistical problems (see
https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Xoroshiro128%2B#Statistical_Quality).
Furthermore, the integration of Xoroshir128+ with the lx_emul code was not
reviewed/audited for its security-related properties, so far, and has the
known deficiency of seeding the PRNG only once during initialization. Thus,
we strongly advise against the use of the lx_emul randomness functions for
security-critical purposes.
Ref #4397
A userland component that ports the Linux WireGuard kernel module (originally
from kernel version 5.14.21) and integrates it via a NIC session (public
network side) and an Uplink session (private network side). The
WireGuard-specific device configuration is done through the component
configuration. The port is done using lx_emul, lx_kit and the virt_linux
targets. The commit adds also 4 corresponding run scripts of which 3 are fully
automated of which 1 is added to the autopilot.
:Warning:
Although in principal functioning, the WireGuard port has not been exposed to a
sufficient amount of real-world testing, so far. Therefore, we strongly
recommend not to use it in any security-critical scenarios! There is no
guarantee that the port meets any of the security goals pursued by the
WireGuard protocol or other WireGuard implementations!

The implementation was copied from the already existing LX-emul implementation
for x86 but the commit additionally page-aligns the array that serves as
backing store for the zero page as we assume this to be expected by the contrib
code. However, this commit doesn't apply the alignment also to the x86
implementation as we agreed, that this should be done in a separate commit.

In rare cases it is necessary to execute Linux contributed code
until certain work is finished, e.g. when in a synchronous RPC call,
a session construction or destruction a result is needed. Therefore,
we introduce a new lx_emul function called lx_emul_execute_kernel_until.

In case multiple devices shared the same memory-mapped I/O page
we have to take the offset into account. This commit fixes the

Fixes#4477.
The driver falls in line with the previous 'legacy_wifi_drv' component
where the ported wireless LAN stack and device driver is encapsulated
in a library. This library in return is used by the 'Libc::Component'
providing the necessary environment for the 'wpa_supplicant'.
In constrast to the old driver a 'wifi' VFS plugin is in charge of
initalizing the 'Lx_kit::Env' prior to executing any static
constructors.

Various libraries, like libnl and wpa_driver_nl80211, used hardcoded
values for the interface index (ifindex) and name (ifname).
To accomdate the legacy as well as the upcoming new driver we add
functions to query these information where at least the index differs.

The location of the used 'source.list' file is hard-coded and will not
work when the ported driver is implemented as a shared library. For

In case where the ported driver or protocol stack is executed from
an already managed environment, e.g. the libc, the execution
of the static constructors will be performed at the appropriate
time.

If any PCI device reports 0 as interrupt PIN, drivers may try to force
MSI setup (e.g., xhci). So, we clamp the interrupt PIN to 1 to let
drivers finish initialization and don't bother the platform driver.
This commit removes all physical notions from the information given
to the Linux kernel regarding PCI BARs.
With the exception for the host bridge that needs to be located at
'0:00.0' as required by the Intel FB driver, all other devices are
announced at the PCI BUS in an ascending order.
Additionally the MMIO regions start at 1 GiB and are capped at 32 bit
to prevent unnecessary access to 64 bit addresses.
.SHELLFLAGS is extended by option pipefail to make pipes fail if any pipe
element fails. As .SHELLFLAGS is exported into sub-make instances it
must be unexported before calling third-party build systems recursively.
To support device-less protocol-stacks only ports, we can use a

The x86 platform driver uses a different API than the one for ARM for
which the lx_kit glue code was designed. Since the x86 platform driver
will eventually adopt a similar interface we implement a wrapper that
encapsulates the old interface.

Until now, the lx_emul layer addressed a 5.11 Linux Kernel port,
now that we add new architectures it is better to update the default version
first. There are especially changes in the task_struct code,
and the signature of some functions in the paging subsystem changed.

We use the architecture-specific setjmp/longjmp implementation without

This patch changes the 'Allocator' interface to the use of 'Attempt'
return values instead of using exceptions for propagating errors.
To largely uphold compatibility with components using the original
exception-based interface - in particluar use cases where an 'Allocator'
is passed to the 'new' operator - the traditional 'alloc' is still
supported. But it existes merely as a wrapper around the new
'try_alloc'.

After a DMA transaction do only invalidate cachelines from the

Ref #4268
The lx_emul_virt_to_pages implementation initialized the page ref
counter only for the first page, leaving the remaining elements in
uninitialized state. This, in turn, rendered the Linux page_pool (as
used by the emac network driver) ineffective, ultimately leading the a
memory leak. The fix changes the call of 'init_page_count' to take the
loop variable as argument.
Issue #4225
Driver code such as mfd-core.c may pass 0 as argument n to kcalloc,
which eventually results in an allocation size 0.
res = kcalloc(cell->num_resources, sizeof(*res), GFP_KERNEL);
Since 'res' is checked against NULL for success, kmalloc must not return
a NULL pointer in this case. The patch works around this issue by
forcing an allocation size of 1 byte in this case.
Issue #4253
Clock providers such as drivers/clk/sunxi-ng/ccu-sun8i-r.c don't use
regular init calls but declare their init functions via CLK_OF_DECLARE,
which fill the __clk_of_table. Linux populates the table statically by
using special sections declared in the linker script. In contrast, we
populate the table by expanding the macro to global constructor
functions.
The __clk_of_table is then processed by the call of of_clk_init(NULL).
Issue #4253
The re-newed approach currently supports ARM 64-bit only.
It depends on the Platform API of the ARM architecture.
It tries to meet the original semantic of the Linux kernel
functions as far as possible. To achieve this, device drivers
using this library should reference the original Linux kernel
headers at foremost. Only the headers in `src/include/lx_emul/shadow`
have to shadow clone the original ones.
Fix#4225
skb_push() already increases the skb->len by ETH_HLEN, hence adding
ETH_HLEN to the packet_size is redundant.
A too large packet size becomes a problem for large MTUs. With a maximum
MTU of 1500, adding ETH_HLEN twice will lead to a packet size of 1528.
Since this is larger than what we expect for good-old Ethernet (max. 1522),
some clients (e.g. the e1000 model in vbox5) may drop these packets.
Fixesgenodelabs/genode#4228
Unfortunately, our current implementation of 'wmb()' doesn't seem to do what we
want it to do. On base-hw + imx6q_sabrelite, the write of bdp->cbd_sc seems to
get re-ordered after the write to txq->bd.reg_desc_active in the transmission
path of the contrib code. Due to this, the transmission of the packet is only
triggered the next time a packet is sent. However, we only quick-fix it by
enforcing the execution of the write with a volatile global read as we will
soon update the FEC NIC port with a new DDE approach anyway.
