* Creates sessions to all supported services of the black hole component
* Test-drives the Event and Capture session with dummy input
* Adds the test to the default list of depot_autopilot.run
* Test-driving the Audio_in and Audio_out sessions is still missing and should
be added via a dedicated commit
Ref #4419
To make room for the re-newed usb_host_drv basing on Linux 5.14 and
the re-newed lx_kit/lx_emul we have to move the depot recipe and
consistently name the old drivers with a legacy_ prefix.

The functionality of the test-block-client, test-block-server, and
test-block-bench components is now covered by the block_tester
application and the vfs_block server.
Issue #4405
This patch makes Sculpt's leitzentrale GUI able to respond to touch events. It
formerly assumed that click/clack events are always preceded by hover reports
that identify the clicked-on widgets. For touch events, however, the most
up-to-date hover information referred to the previous click because there is no
motion without touching. So the GUI tended to identify the wrong widgets as
click targets.
The patch solved this problem by testing the freshness of the hover information
at the time of the click. If the hover information is older than the click, the
action is deferred until up-to-date hover information becomes available.
Fixes#4398
* retrieve Genode::Env from plugin, this way no mesa applications need to
be changed.
* add 'vfs_gpu' api
* remove when all required functionality is implemented within the plugin.
issue #4380
When a <gpu> node is present in the VFS, the plugin opens a
Gpu::Connection for each open call to the 'gpu' node and installs a
completion signal handler. A read only to the fd returned only comes
back if a completion signal has been received between two read
transctions to the fd.
For now the Gpu::Connections can be retrieved by calling the
'vfs_gpu_connection(unsigned long id)' function. The id can be obtained
using 'stat' on the 'gpu' device and is located in the inode (st_ino)
field of the stat buffer.
issue #4380
This patch equips Sculpt with the ability to customize the system image
in very flexible ways.
All customizable aspects of the image have been relocated from the
former sculpt.run script and the accompanied gems/run/sculpt/ directory
to a new location - the sculpt/ directory - which can exist in any
repository. The directory at repos/gems/sculpt/ serves as reference.
The sculpt directory can host any number of <name>-<board>.sculpt files,
each containing a list of ingredients to be incorporated into the
Sculpt system image. The <name> can be specified to the sculpt.run
script. E.g., the following command refers to the 'default-pc.sculpt'
file:
make run/sculpt KERNEL=nova BOARD=pc SCULPT=default
If no 'SCULPT' argument is supplied, the value 'default' is used.
A .sculpt file refers to a selection of files found at various
subdirectries named after their respective purpose. In particular, There
exists a subdirectory for each file in Sculpt's config fs, like
nitpicker, drivers... The .sculpt file selects the alternative to use
by a simple tag-value notation.
drivers: pc
The supported tags are as follows.
*Optional* selection of /config files. If not specified, those files are
omitted, which prompts Sculpt to manage those configurations
automatically or via the Leitzentrale GUI:
fonts
nic_router
event_filter
wifi
runtime
gpu_drv
Selection of mandatory /config files. If not specified, the respective
'default' alternative will be used.
nitpicker
deploy
fb_drv
clipboard
drivers
numlock_remap
leitzentrale
usb
system
ram_fs
Furthermore, the .sculpt file supports the optional selection of
supplemental content such as a set of launchers.
launches: nano3d system_shell
Another type of content are the set of blessed pubkey/download files
used for installing and verifying software on target.
With the new version, it has become possible to supply a depot with the
the system image. The depot content is assembled according to the 'pkg'
attributes found in launcher files and the selected deploy config.
The resulting depot is incorporated into the system image as 'depot.tar'
archive. It can be supplied to the Sculpt system by mounting it into the
ram fs as done by the 'ram_fs/depot' configuration for the ram fs.
It is possible to add additional boot modules to the system image. There
are two options.
build: <list of targets>
This tag prompts the sculpt.run script to build the specified targets
directly using the Genode build system and add the created artifacts
into the system image as boot modules.
import: <list of depot src or pkg archives>
This tag instructs Sculpt to supply the specifid depot-archive content
as boot modules to the system image. This change eliminates the need for
board-specific pkg/sculpt-<board> archives. The board-specific
specializations can now be placed directly into the respective .sculpt
files by using 'import:'.
To make the use of Sculpt as testbed during development more convenient,
the log output of the drivers, leitzentrale, and runtime subsystems
can be redirected to core using the optional 'LOG=core' argument, e.g.,
make run/sculpt KERNEL=linux BOARD=linux LOG=core
The former pkg/sculpt-installation and pkg/sculpt-installation-pc
archives have been replaced by pkg/sculpt_distribution-pc, which
references the generic pkg/sculpt_distribution archive. Those pkgs are
solely used for publishing / distribution purposes.
Fixes#4369
- Consider 'sdl' as source of input events in the event-filter
configuration as generated by the sculpt manager
- Supply an artificial 'platform_info' ROM as requested by the
sculpt manager to obtain the affinity-space information
- Substitute 'fs_rom' for 'cached_fs_rom' as a workaround for the
lack of support for managed dataspaces on Linux
Fixes#4362
This change keeps the version-controlled 'pubkey' and 'download' files
separate from files generated via depot/create or downloaded via
depot/download. So one can remove the entire depot/ directory without
interfering with git.
Furthermore, depot keys can now be hosted in supplemental repositories
independent from Genode's main repository.
Fixes#4364
This patch improves the robustness of the CPU-affinity handling.
- The types in base/affinity.h received the accessors
'Location::within(space)' and 'Affinity::valid', which alleviates
the fiddling with coordinates when sanity checking the values,
in init or core.
- The 'Affinity::Location::valid' method got removed because its
meaning was too vague. For sanity checks of affinity configurations,
the new 'within' method is approriate. In cases where only the x,y
values are used for selecting a physical CPU (during thread creation),
the validity check (width*height > 0) was not meaningful anyway.
- The 'Affinity::Location::from_xml' requires a 'Affinity::Space'
as argument because a location always relates to the bounds of
a specific space. This function now implements the selection of
whole rows or columns, which has previously a feature of the
sandbox library only.
- Whenever the sandbox library (init) encounters an invalid affinity
configuration, it prints a warning message as a diagnostic aid.
- A new 'Affinity::unrestricted' function constructs an affinity that
covers the whole affinity space. The named functions clarifies
the meaning over the previous use of the default constructor.
- Core's CPU service denies session requests with an invalid
affinity parameter. Previously, it would fall back to an
unrestricted affinity.
Issue #4300
Similar to other devices allow for selecting a graphics device as
well. This is currently only useful on iMX8-based systems like
iMX8Q-EVK and MNT Reform2 where the driver is explicitly started
from a pkg.
Fixes#4342.
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'.
Issue #4324
First, the former implementation has only considered the pure numerical
variant of the -m argument. Yet, qemu also allows specifying the amount
of memory by `-m 1G`, `-m size=1G` and more.
Second, the default amount of memory for BOARD=pc was 512M (800M in case of okl4).
Since the depot_autopilot.run also required at least 768M on all
platforms it seems reasonable to take 800M as a default value for BOARD=pc and
thereby remove the special treatment of okl4.
genodelabs/genode#4311
This patch adds a missing call of '_handle_decorator_margins' at
construction time. Up to commit "report_rom: versioning and explicit
notification" this problem was masked by an unconditional signal, which
implicitely triggered the call.

Issue #4281
This follow-up commit to "sculpt: avoid flickering of leitzentrale"
allows nitpicker to double-buffer pixels during resize operation on a
screen size of 1920x1200.
This patch presents all press and release events to the pointer state,
fixing the problem that _key_cnt was decreased but never increased.
However, the inconsistency had no observable effects in practice.
Issue #4176
This patch ensures that the pointer report is updated not before all
input events are handled. The change does not solve any observed
practical issue but the potential problem was spotted while reviewing
the code.
Issue #4176
This patch changes the depot_query tool to filter the returned index
data depending on the 'arch' as specified for the query. This way, one
index file can support multiple CPU architectures while allowing
individual entries to be architecture-specific.
Fixes#4295
This patch adds the missing definition of 'prio_levels' in the prepare
sub init, fixing the warning:
[init -> runtime -> prepare] Warning: vfs: invalid priority, upgrading from -2 to 0
Issue #4281
Warning!
The current version of the file vault is not thought for productive use but
for mere demonstrational purpose! Please refrain from storing sensitive data
with it!
The File Vault component implements a graphical frontend for setting up and
controlling encrypted virtual file systems using the Consistent Block Encrypter
(CBE) for encryption and snapshot management. For more details see
'repos/gems/src/app/file_vault/README'.
Fixes#4032
Previously unconditional calls to Genode::log in cbe init and the cbe trust
anchor VFS plugin were made dependent on a verbosity flag that is set to
"false" by default.
