- Move C++ sources from lib/wireguard to app/wireguard, which require
Genode include paths (that conflict with linux)
- Rename lib/wireguard_lx_inc_dirs to lib/wireguard, which builds linux
sources with linux include paths
This commits updates the contrib sources to version 8.7.1.
This version requires more random entropy as it queries OpenSSL
about the current random state and will bail if it is not sufficient.
Doubling the content of the '<inline>' VFS plugin as used in static
configurations seems satisfactory.
Furthermore DNS resolving needs a configured '<pipe>' plugin to work
properly.
Fixes#5184.
Adjust the plugin to use the socket C-API found under
dde_linux/src/lib/lxip/include/genode_c_api/socket.h'.
This is the first minor step in generalizing the plugin.
isse #5104
The driver is superseded by the USB network driver (usb_net) which also
contains MBIM support for LTE modems previously provided by this
driver.
issue #4958
The drivers uses the 'virt_linux' api and the current lx_kit
implementation. It is a drop-in replacement for the Linux 4.16.3 based
version.
issue #4958
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.
Issue #4861.
Due to lacking hardware access the driver was test with one RTL8188EE
based device, namely [10ec:8179] (rev 01), only. As the access to the
PCI config space is restricted the driver loads the non power-saving
FW and the driver port is therefor only tested with that. The
accesses are documented should we choose to support them one way or
another later on.
The 'wifi.run' run script as well as Sculpt served as testing ground
where the driver worked fine so far.
Fixes#4714.
