Under high TX load, 'irq_handler()' is rarely executed but packets
are still received since 'netdev_poll()' is called for every TX packet.
'netdev_poll()' not only handles completed transmissions but also
puts the IO buffers of received packets into the RX queue and refills the RX
ring by allocating more IO buffers. However, the IO buffers can only be freed
after they have been dequeued and passed to the 'rx_callback()'. Since
this was only done by 'irq_handler()', we exhaust the slab allocator
under high TX load.
A fix for this is to process the RX queue not only in the IRQ handler
but also when transmitting packets.

m/udelay is called with closed interrupts. Linux contrib code expects no
other task to be run respectively to be re-scheduled. usleep_range leads to
executing other tasks, which causes assertions in "spinlock taken twice" or
"unexpected preempt count" errors, seen on runtime with wifi_drv and intel_fb.
The assertion triggered with the changes by #4562.
On okl4, pistachio, sel4 the test didn't come up fast enough in order to still

In overload situations, i.e. when a sender fills up the entire buffer, we land
in situations where the sender receives an ack_avail signal, releases one
packet, allocates and sends a packet and fails to allocate a second packet.
This is especially relevant if the receiver does not batch ack_avail signals
(such as vfs_lwip). In those ping-pong scheduling scenarios, the overhead from
catching the Packet_alloc_failed exception becomes significant. In case of the
NIC router, we will land in an overload situation if the sender is faster than
the receiver. The packet buffer will be filled up at some point and the NIC
router starts to drop packets. For every dropped packet, we currently have to
catch the Packet_alloc_failed exception.
This commit adds a new method alloc_packet_attempt to Packet_stream_source that
has almost the same signature as the older alloc_packet method but returns
an Attempt<Packet_descriptor, Alloc_packet_error> object. As the method already
used the allocator back end exception-less, changes on lower levels were not
needed. Furthermore, the NIC router was modified to use the new exception-less
alloc_packet_attempt instead of alloc_packet.

Replaces the former implementation of the 'find_by_ip' method at the data
structure for ARP cache entries. This method used to return a reference to the
found object and threw an exception if no matching object was found.
The new implementation doesn't return anything and doesn't throw exceptions. It
takes two lambda arguments instead. One for handling the case that a match was
found with a reference to the matching object as argument and another for
handling the case that no object matches.
This way, expensive exception handling can be avoided and object references
stay in a local scope.

According to a benchmarking series on Zynq (base-hw) and x260 (base-nova) using
test-nic_perf_router, increasing the 'max_packets_per_signal' has a significant
effect on the packet throughput. By increasing the default value from 32
to 150, we could gain a few hundred Mbit/s. Increasing the value further
does not seem to have such a strong effect, though.

The checksums for forwarded/routed UDP, TCP and ICMP, used to be always

We used to use 'unsigned long' for the accumulating variable when calculating

When sending an ICMP ECHO reply, the router merely swaps SRC and DST of the
IPv4 header of the corresponding request and these changes cancel each other
out in checksum calculation. Therefore, with this commit, the router skips
updating the IPv4 checksum in this context.

The router used to update IPv4 checksums when routing via an <ip> rule

Ref #4555
The NIC router used to update IPv4 and layer 4 checksums of a packet for each
interface it was sent to (say, all interfaces of the domain the packet was
routed to). However, there was and is no technical reason for not doing it
only once and then iterating over the interfaces with the already updated
packet. This is what this commit does in an intent to raise the router's
performance.
Ref #4555
The NIC router uses the timer for relatively coarse-grained timeouts.
It therefore suffices to update and store the current time when the NIC router
is signalled and use the cached time instead. This prevents frequent
syscalls or RPCs when acquiring the current time for every packet.
genodelabs/genode#4555
The link dissolve timeout is updated for every packet, which leads to
trigger_once() RPCs that only marginally change the scheduled timeout but
significantly slow down the packet throughput.

The wakeup call only emits a single signal as it assumed both are
handled by the same signal handler. However, the original implementation
did not reset the wakeup_needed variable properly.
genodelabs/genode#4555
When using signal batching, ack_avail and packet_avail should always
be emitted and preferred over ready_to_submit and ready_to_ack.
A signal receiver might decide to not register the ready_to_* signals when it
handles congestion by dropping packets. The Nic router is an example of
such a signal receiver.

The box layout evenly distributes the child widgets according to the

Fixes#4547
Whenever a domain looses all its interfaces or the link state of all attached
interfaces is down at once, the domain potentially moves to another Ethernet
segment and should therefore consider its ARP cache to be outdated.
RFC 826 states that "... If a host moves, any connections initiated by that
host will work, assuming its own address resolution table is cleared when it
moves. ...".
Therefore, this commit introduces clearing the ARP cache and the initially
stated events.
This commit was motivated by an issue with the PinePhone Modem and USB NIC.
On the PinePhone, the Modem has its own OS and acts as direct gateway to the
outer world for the USB NIC that is driven by Genode. However, whenever the
Modem gets restarted, Modem and USB NIC receive a new MAC address. This used
to conflict with the NIC routers ARP entry for the Modem that didn't cease to
be valid.
With this commit, the integrator of such a scenario at least has a convenient
way of fixing this by ensuring that all interfaces at the USB NIC domain go
down when resetting (e.g. by ensuring that the USB NIC is the only interface at
that domain).

When a PD gets deleted check whether it is active on the current CPU resp. MMU.
If yes, switch to core/kernel's PD to prevent that invalid page-tables or

thread, we switch to kernel/core's PD too. Thereby, we prevent that vanished
PDs are still active on CPUs different from the one, where the core entrypoint
is active, which does the PD deletion.
This whole scheme is only valid under the assumption that core has only one

We locally disable 'address-of-packed-member' warnings because GCC complained

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.

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.

exits on the attempt to re-configure the private key.

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.

within the Platform::Connection utilities, and register temporarily
an Io_signal_handler to wait for changes of the devices ROM, and
try the device aquisition again. Thereby, simple drivers so not have
to take the burden to do so.
To enable this feature for all drivers, we always have to export a
devices ROM, but limit the information about physical resources
(I/O memory addresses, IRQ numbers, I/O port ranges) to clients with
'info=yes' in their policy description.

By adding a 'report' node to the platform driver's configuration
one can enable either devices or config reports. The devices
report contains all devices and their detailed state, as well as
whether it is already in use or not. The config report contains
one by one the current configuration of the platform driver.
Moreover, this commit adds a README file describing the facilities
of the platform driver.
Fixgenodelabs/genode#4386
If PCI devices happen to miss complete configuration after boot, the
platform driver supports <pci-fixup> nodes for concrete devices
(specified by bus-device-functions tuples). The
<bar> node instructs the platform driver to remap BAR id 0 to address
0x4017002000, which amends the BIOS configuration and is stringently
required for BARs with address 0.
! <pci-fixup bus="0" device="0x15" function="3">
! <bar id="0" address="0x4017002000"/>
! </pci-fixup>
The issue was discovered with Intel LPSS devices in Fujitsu notebooks.

This patch changes the libc to query the stack size from the
config attribute <libc> <stack size=""/> </libc> for regular
components, not only cloned processes.
To discharge the generic platform driver from certain PCI bus scanning,
and ACPI + kernel specifics, this commit introduces a new component,
which consumes the acpi drivers report and the platform_info from core
to prepare a devices ROM for the platform driver that contains all
PCI devices and its resources.

USB Attached SCSI devices might expose a bulk-only interface
as fall-back at interface 0 and alternate setting 0. This commit
allows for probing all alternate settings of the active interface
to be able to use such devices.
The configuration was extended so that in case the device interface
is known beforehand the driver can be configured accordingly.
Fixes#4494.
Deploying an overly large meta-pkg in Sculpt leads to an
'Xml_generator::Buffer_exceeded' exception. Using the expanding
reporter solves this problem.
Fixes#4493.
In case we are instructed to reauthenticate and were already
authenticated we ignore the request in the management layer
and let 'wpa_supplicant' deal with that.
Fixes#4488.
The vanilla NOVA kernel solely supports tracking and exporting of execution
times per SC kernel object, but not per thread (EC object). The commit extends
to track execution times per EC in the NOVA kernel, exporting it to Genode's
'core' roottask and populating Genode's Trace::Subject_info structure.
Fixes#4481
Remove handling of ACPI (SCI) interrupt from kernel and thereby let the
handling of the ACPI irq exclusively to an Genode driver. On Genode the ACPICA
library+app handles the ACPI irq, where we can now remove the contrib patches
related to the synchronization between NOVA kernel and ACPICA library.
Fixes#4479
When using the framebuffer driver on this machine the
'cpu_latency_qos_request_active' dummy is triggered. Removing the
trace-and-stop call makes the driver usable.
In addition, 'cpu_latency_qos_remove_request' is changed as well
although it is guarded by 'cpu_latency_qos_request_active'.
Fixes#4489.
This patch fixes rare freezes of menu view instances, which could happen boot
time whenever the leitzentale GUI happens to get initialized before the display
driver finished setting up a reasonable mode. In this case, the resolution-
dependent font size can temporarily get almost zero, tripping up the glyph
renderer.
Since the driver relies on all requests being Nvme::MPS_LOG2 aligned
as advertised in its Block::Info the added check will reject any
misaligned requests (using 'gpt_write' led to an IOMMU write fault).

2560x1440 resolutions require more RAM resources. Additionally, make

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.

To signal that a device gets used and released by a session
introduce claim, release, and release all callbacks in the

In case multiple devices shared the same memory-mapped I/O page
we have to take the offset into account. This commit fixes the
'pc_usb_host_drv' on the Thinkpad X201 where the two EHCI host
controller share the some I/O memory page.
Fixes#4477.
With the new usb driver #4399 and usage of the updated dde_linux lx_eml/lx_kit
approach a much higher rate of IRQ session construction/destruction and signal
handler assignment (irq->sigh) are caused. This trickles down to the kernel,
which causes an hang of the AMD IOMMUs due to not setting reserved bits
adequately. The commit fixes the root cause in the kernel and add a guard
into core's to limit such driver behaviour.
Fixes#4482
The file listed only enabled="false" in the audio adapter tag. However,
setting only this option to true isn't sufficient for guest audio to work.
One has to set also enabledIn respectively enabledOut in the same tag. The
new default vbox6 file reflects this.
Fixes#4476
This patch fixes a potential data corruption issue that could occur when
issuing large I/O requests to vfs/rump, which don't fit into the default
block I/O buffer of 128 KiB. Note that we haven't observed the problem
in practice (Sculpt hosts vfs/rump in a dedicated vfs server, which
fragments requests) but spotted the issue while reviewing the code. We
could trigger problem by explicitly changing the I/O buffer size to 32
KiB.
Issue #4474
This patch changes the meaning of the 'offset' parameter of the
'produce_write_content' and 'consume_read_result' hook functions.
The value used to reflect the absolute byte position but in practice,
a job-relative byte offset is desired.
Issue #4474
Before this commit, the block-request handler was implemented as
Io_signal_handler and, additionally, the USB driver called the
block-request handler on request completion directly on I/O level. This
is generally a bad idea because I/O handlers should avoid to have direct
global side effects. In contrast, application logic should be
implemented in way that it consumes atomic state changes after I/O
completed. Now USB I/O completion locally submits a signal to the
block-request Signal_handler.
This patch reduces the response time of supposedly stuck situations like
an unresponsive part_block component. First, it reduces the heartbeat
rate from 1 to 2 seconds to make it consistent with the frequency of
state reports. Second, it allows up to four skipped heartbeats until
regarding the situation as stuck. With those changes, the prolonged
initialization sequence of a USB ZIP drive succeeds with Sculpt.
