This enables Qt5 applications to set a Genode label via 'setWindowTitle'
from within Qt5 applications, and thus, making them identifiable to
other Genode components, like a layout manager.
fixes#3046
The VFS LwIP plugin is page-faulting on connect error because the LwIP
library frees a failed TCP protocol control block before calling the
error callback, and then the VFS plugin dereferences the PCB to free it
a second time. This problem was caused by a failure to follow
documentation during a transition from a C callback to a C++ method.
Fix#2972
LwIP skips a packet copy by wrapping Nic stream buffer regions in LwIP
pbuf objects. Move from a fixed size array to a potentially unbounded
slab allocator for managing this buffer metadata.
Ref #2335
This patch reintroduces the LwIP stack to libc as a VFS plugin
implementing the socket_fs interface. Rather than use LwIP's socket
emulation layer this plugin interfaces directly to LwIP raw API and is
single threaded.
The internal TCP parameters of the stack are untuned.
Fix#2050Fix#2335
Rename LwIP library in preparation for removal of LwIP libc plugin. The
current LwIP library will be replaced with a new version stripped of its
synchronous socket support. The next version will be incompatible with
the current, so removing 'lwip.lib.so' completely for a period makes it
easy to identify legacy users.
Fix#2797
The TCP window scaling is implemented for servers (like netperf's
netserver) only. The client implementation just uses the lower 16 bits
of the TCP_WND configuration value, which we therefore maximize to ~64K.
The patch adjust the code of the base, base-<kernel>, and os repository.
To adapt existing components to fix violations of the best practices
suggested by "Effective C++" as reported by the -Weffc++ compiler
argument. The changes follow the patterns outlined below:
* A class with virtual functions can no longer publicly inherit base
classed without a vtable. The inherited object may either be moved
to a member variable, or inherited privately. The latter would be
used for classes that inherit 'List::Element' or 'Avl_node'. In order
to enable the 'List' and 'Avl_tree' to access the meta data, the
'List' must become a friend.
* Instead of adding a virtual destructor to abstract base classes,
we inherit the new 'Interface' class, which contains a virtual
destructor. This way, single-line abstract base classes can stay
as compact as they are now. The 'Interface' utility resides in
base/include/util/interface.h.
* With the new warnings enabled, all member variables must be explicitly
initialized. Basic types may be initialized with '='. All other types
are initialized with braces '{ ... }' or as class initializers. If
basic types and non-basic types appear in a row, it is nice to only
use the brace syntax (also for basic types) and align the braces.
* If a class contains pointers as members, it must now also provide a
copy constructor and assignment operator. In the most cases, one
would make them private, effectively disallowing the objects to be
copied. Unfortunately, this warning cannot be fixed be inheriting
our existing 'Noncopyable' class (the compiler fails to detect that
the inheriting class cannot be copied and still gives the error).
For now, we have to manually add declarations for both the copy
constructor and assignment operator as private class members. Those
declarations should be prepended with a comment like this:
/*
* Noncopyable
*/
Thread(Thread const &);
Thread &operator = (Thread const &);
In the future, we should revisit these places and try to replace
the pointers with references. In the presence of at least one
reference member, the compiler would no longer implicitly generate
a copy constructor. So we could remove the manual declaration.
Issue #465
The synchronization with the ACPI driver is not needed when starting
acpica at a later stage. It could already be disabled via the
'acpi_ready="yes"' config attribute. However, acpica still
unconditionally requests the so-called "Acpi" service, which is an
alias for the platform_drv's "Platform" service. This patch disables the
use of this alias when the 'acpi_ready' synchronization is disabled.
Remove getaddrinfo and freeaddrinfo from the Libc::Plugin and get rid of
the extra libc_resolv library. Remove getaddrinfo/freeaddrinfo symbol
hiding patch for FreeBSD sources. Remove libc_resolv from Makefiles and
run scenarios.
Fix#2273
- Update FatFS port from 0.07e to 0.13
- Multi-device support
- Basic test at run/fatfs
- Adaption of existing components
Note, ffat is now consistently renamed to fatfs.
Ref #2410
Libc components cannot use regular calls to select() as this may suspend
their execution. In this case incoming RPCs will be deferred until
select() returns and the component returns to the entrypoint dispatch
loop. The Libc::Signal_handler solves this problem with a its select()
that either returns the currently ready file descriptors immediately or
calls the registered handler function during libc resume.
This commit extends an easy-to-use mechanism to allow Genode component
code to enter/leave the libc application context. This is needed
whenever low-level component code (like signal handlers or RPC
functions) need to interact with potentially blocking libc I/O
functions.
Please note that this commit contains the API-level design only. The
actual context switching code 'execute_in_application_context' is
missing.
