Issue #3111
remove_range may deny to the job on memory pressure or insane ranges,
which ends up in an endless loop when the Avl allocator is in destruction.
Since the Avl gets destructed, solely the memory free up is of importance,
not the correct range adjustments during remove_range.
Track the dataspaces used by attach and add handling of flushing VM space
when dataspace gets destroyed (not triggered via the vm_session interface).
Issue #3111
Handles corner case when addr + size becomes exactly 0. Before the commit
the function returned that sum is not part of the range, which is wrong.
Issue #3111
The old inline assembly provided two output operands that were afterwards
combined for a return value. However, the second output operand isn't
necessary when using the "Acquiring a Lock" example-code of the ARM manual
"Barrier Litmus Tests and Cookbook". This saves two logical operations
per acquisition try. Additionally better documentation is now provided.
Fixes#1292
This patch adds the items necessary for building Genode components with
stack protection enabled, but it is not initialized at runtime. They are
provided at the moment as a convenience and do not implement a security
feature.
Fix#3066
If a component is being destroyed just before it calls `exit()` at its
parent, the `exit()` call causes an `Ipc_error` exception, which leads to
an `abort()` loop with repeated error messages, because `abort()` calls
`exit()` too. Catching the exception in `Expanding_parent_client::exit()`
avoids this problem.
Fixes#3228
* Introduces pending_signal syscall to check for new signals for the
calling thread without blocking
* Implements pending_signal in the base-library specific for hw to use the
new syscall
Fix#3217
The "schedule_post_signal_hook" method of the Genode::Entrypoint class
is problematic because the signal hook can be scheduled and replaced
multiple times during the signal dispatch cycle. Add an alternative to
this method with "register_io_progress_handler" and the "Post_signal_
hook" class with "Io_progress_handler". The difference being an
"Io_progress_handler" may be registered once during the lifetime of an
entrypoint to prevent arbitrary libraries from replacing a pending hook.
The "register_io_progress_handler" remains as a deprecated API, and is
now invoked for every I/O signal received and only for I/O signals
rather than for any signal.
Ref #3132
The zynq nic_drv also depends on hw, we therefore adapted the folder
structure for clarity. Also renamed the binary to 'zynq_nic_drv' to
prevent conflicts and to allow removing the cadence_gem spec.
Issue #3179
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
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 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.
Issue #2407
- support to create multiple vCPUs
- support to implement Vm_session methods client side within base library
- adjust muen specific virtualbox4 version to compile/link
Issue #3111
The minimal-footprint Ada runtime for implementing library-like
functionality in SPARK is now called "spark" runtime.
The full Ada runtime for entire components written in Ada and using the
libc as glue to the underlying system will move to the world repository
as "ada" runtime.
