Prevent missing new RPC calls handed over to a Linux task
of a corresponding usb-device, while that task blocked
during enqueuing of asynchronous URBs.

Decoupling the scheduler execution can lead to missed interrupts
because the current implementation only handles one pending
interrupt and requires immediate processing.
This commit introduces a helper object that is used to capture
any occuring interrupts that are then handled consecutively.
Issue #4927.
Prior to this commit, whenever an external event occurred, for example
timer or interrupt, the corresponding I/O signal handler was triggered.
This handler unblocked the task waiting for the event and initiated the
immediate execution of all unblocked tasks. Since these tasks may hit
serialization points, e.g. synchronously waiting for packet stream
operations, that require handling of other I/O signals this leads to
nested execution. This, however, is not supported and mixes application
and I/O level signal handling.
The flagging of the scheduling intent is now decoupled from its
execution by using an application level signal handler that is run in
the context of the components main entrypoint. The I/O signal handler
now triggers the scheduling execution by sending a local signal to
the EP.
Since it might be necessary to execute a pending schedule from the EP
directly the scheduler is extended with the 'execute' member function
that performs the check that the scheduler is called from within the
EP and triggers the execution afterwards.

With these options enabled comparative testing between pc_linux drivers
and bzImages becomes much easier on EFI-only machines. The impact on the
actual Genode drivers is minimal.
USB devices that are never associated to client sessions lack
usb_per_dev_data (and a kernel thread). Therefore, the devices should be
discontinued directly on unplug as no URBs can be pending.

This back end can be used in place of the existing jitterentropy based
on in case random is not strictly needed by the component but one
wants to use the available 'shadow/drivers/char/random.c'
implementation.
Issue genodelabs/genode-allwinner#21.
The implementation was already part of the Zynq's sd_card driver and
since other ARM drivers need it as well, promote it to the common
shadow library.
Issue genodelabs/genode-allwinner#21.
On platforms different than x86 the subsys initcall `pci_subsys_init`
is not available. Therefore, we choose an alternative one here.

This commit introduces preliminary support for joining networks secured
via WPA3-personal. So far it was only tested with the one OpenWRT AP
configured for WPA3 (see excerpt below) where it WPA3-only as well as
WPA2/WPA3 mixed worked fine.

It turns out solely relying on the name of the compilation-unit
is not enough. In at least one multi-device driver, e.g. rtlwifi,
an equally called compilation-unit is found in several different
directories. There KBUILD_MODNAME is used to name the driver,
which fails later on as the driver framework refuses to register
an equally named driver twice.
Instead of only considering the name of the compilation-unit also
include the last element of the path to generate differentiating
KBUILD_MODNAME value.

The supplicant is updated to the current release and is now downloaded
as archive rather than pulled from git. For the time being 'libnl' is
still kept at 3.2.25 as the current 3.7.0 release relies on more Linux
infrastructure that our integration does not provide.

This commit changes the firmware handling from requesting each
firmware file as a ROM module that is checked against a list of
known images (including their size) to requesting each file via
the local VFS of the 'wifi_drv'. This allows for using the original
probing mechanism that tries to select a matching firmware version.
The 'repos/dde_linux/src/drivers/wifi/README' file contains more
detailed information on how to configure the driver.
Issue #4861.
The bulk of the driver code now lives in the 'dde_linux' repository,
which is available on all platforms, from where it can be referenced by
other repositories.
The 'wifi_drv' binary was delegated to a generic harness that includes
all configuration and management functionality shared by all wireless
device driver components, e.g., the wpa_supplicant. The code of the
device driver emulation environment is located in 'src/lib/wifi'. It
is referenced by the platform-specific driver library that resides in
the corresponding platform repository. The runtime configuration needs
to point the driver to proper driver library.
The platform-specific library is in charge of orchestrating the contrib
source utilized by the driver as well as providing the 'source.list'
and 'dep.list' files. It must include the generic library snippet
'repos/dde_linux/lib/wifi.inc' that deals with managing the emulation
environment code.
The 'repos/dde_linux/src/drivers/wifi/README' file contains more
detailed information on how to deploy the driver.

This commit introduces support for building the WLAN driver for ARM
platforms. It makes the WPA supplicant and its support libraries
available for all platforms. It also seperates the PCI parts to
accommodate platforms where other bus protocols are used.

The way the 'struct page' management is currently implemented it is
not safe to rely on it in case allocations share the same page. This
is in particular true where the virtual address is obtained by
querying the page object for maintaining the CPU caches.

This commit updates the used firmware images for the iwlwifi device
to latest available ones (supported by the current 6.1.x driver).
It also removes old firmware images that by now are not used anymore.
Fixes#4807.
Recent devices are configured with 4096 RX pages that lead to an
increased memory usage. For the moment lower the amount to 2048
and treat in potientially lower throughput for more conservative
memory consumption.
Fixes#4801.
The get_cycles() call within the test doesn't apply to RDTSC
access when running on ARM but to arch_timer_read_counter, which
is an empty function pointer. By setting it to a function that
returns Genode::Trace::timestamp() we can enable the test for ARM.
