'append_platform_drv_config' appends to the global 'config' variable,
which seems to cause problems with the order of appending when the
'config' variable does not contain the '<config>' start node yet.
'[platform_drv_config]' can be used instead to append to a local variable.
Fixes#3171
This patch simplifies the propagation of pointer shapes from
window-manager clients to the pointer. The "shape" report is routed to
the wm server, which, in turn, reports it to the pointer. This way, the
pointer can easily correlate the label of the application's "shape"
report with the label of the application's Nitpicker session. The
formerly used manual rewriting of the "shape" label is not needed
anymore.
Since the wm server provides a "Report" service now, its <provides>
declaration must cover "Report" in addition to "Nitpicker" to avoid
runtime error messages. Vice versa, the wm is now expected to request
"shape" reports, which should be routed to the pointer (using the
'label_last' routing attribute).
Fixes#3165
The lwIP VFS plugin uses lwIP pbuf chains to queue recieved TCP data and
must rechain them when the application dequeues data. Remove an
"pbuf_realloc" call which is not needed for updating pbuf metadata when
dequeuing the head of the chain.
Fix#3169
This commit removes APIs that were previously marked as deprecated. This
change has the following implications:
- The use of the global 'env()' accessor is not possible anymore.
- Boolean accessor methods are no longer prefixed with 'is_'. E.g.,
instead of 'is_valid()', use 'valid()'.
- The last traces of 'Ram_session' are gone now. The 'Env::ram()'
accessor returns the 'Ram_allocator' interface, which is a subset of
the 'Pd_session' interface.
- All connection constructors need the 'Env' as argument.
- The 'Reporter' constructor needs an 'Env' argument now because the
reporter creates a report connection.
- The old overload 'Child_policy::resolve_session_request' that returned
a 'Service' does not exist anymore.
- The base/printf.h header has been removed, use base/log.h instead.
- The old notion of 'Signal_dispatcher' is gone. Use 'Signal_handler'.
- Transitional headers like os/server.h, cap_session/,
volatile_object.h, os/attached*_dataspace.h, signal_rpc_dispatcher.h
have been removed.
- The distinction between 'Thread_state' and 'Thread_state_base' does
not exist anymore.
- The header cpu_thread/capability.h along with the type definition of
'Cpu_thread_capability' has been removed. Use the type
'Thread_capability' define in cpu_session/cpu_session.h instead.
- Several XML utilities (i.e., at os/include/decorator) could be removed
because their functionality is nowadays covered by util/xml_node.h.
- The 'os/ram_session_guard.h' has been removed.
Use 'Constrained_ram_allocator' provided by base/ram_allocator.h instead.
Issue #1987
Make the size of the packet buffer at the VFS File_system client
configurable. This allows larger reads to be completed in a single
packet cycle.
Example: <vfs> <fs buffer_size="512K"/> </vfs>
Fix#3167
QEMU implements the cycle count register read by
'Genode::Trace::timestamp()', but does not report a supported debug model
version for Cortex-A9.
Fixes#3154
1) A session request gets denied if there is no matching session policy.
(The <defaul-policy/> tag can be used for the former default behavior)
2) A session request gets denied if the MAC address is given through the
matching policy but this address cannot be allocated.
3) A session request gets denied if the MAC address is not given through the
matching policy and it is also not possible to allocate one.
Issue #3040
This is a follow-up commit of "base/core: use references instead of
pointers". Because the 'Rm_root::_upgrade_session' implementation
lacked the 'override' keyword, my overzealous change of the pointer
argument went unnoticed.
This commit fixes the depot_rom (cached_fs_rom) failure in Sculpt.
When cached_fs_rom attempted to create a new managed dataspace while the
RM session quota was depleted, it tried to upgrade the session (via
Rm_connection::create). However, the upgraded resources never reached
the actual session because the default 'Root_component::_upgrade_session'
was called instead of 'Rm_root::_upgrade_session'.
Issue #3135
This patch enhances the packet-stream API with the principle ability to
side-step the built-in implicity data-flow signals and manage the
signals manually. This allows for a more efficient batching of packet
processing.
Issue #3092
The 'tx_cap' RPC function is only used at session-creation time. For
this reason, it was not listed in the "official" RPC interface in
'block_session.h'. However, this makes the interface more obscure than
it needs to be. So this patch promotes it to a regular RPC function.
Issue #3092
This patch adjusts the implementation of the base library and core such
that the code no longer relies on deprecated APIs except for very few
cases, mainly to keep those deprecated APIs in tact for now.
The most prominent changes are:
- Removing the use of base/printf.h
- Removing of the log backend for printf. The 'Console' with the
format-string parser is still there along with 'snprintf.h' because
the latter is still used at a few places, most prominently the
'Connection' classes.
- Removing the notion of a RAM session, which does not exist in
Genode anymore. Still the types were preserved (by typedefs to
PD session) to keep up compatibility. But this transition should
come to an end now.
- Slight rennovation of core's tracing service, e.g., the use of an
Attached_dataspace as the Argument_buffer.
- Reducing the reliance on global accessors like deprecated_env() or
core_env(). Still there is a longish way to go to eliminate all such
calls. A useful pattern (or at least a stop-gap solution) is to
pass the 'Env' to the individual compilation units via init functions.
- Avoiding the use of the old 'Child_policy::resolve_session_request'
interface that returned a 'Service' instead of a 'Route'.
Issue #1987
The notion of a RAM session does not exist anymore. Hence, we have to
adjust the name of 'init_env_ram_session'. Since this change modifies
the ABI, it comes as separate commit.
