- move metadata specific to isochronous transfers from the descriptor
into the content of USB-session packets
- restore support for 32 in-flight packets in the USB C API
Fixes#4749
Now, block_devices are reported earliest right after the devices ROM was
parsed and neither AHCI nor NVMe were found. If one or both devices were
found, the report is deferred after all expected reports arrived.
Issue #4791
Previously the 'partitions' report was implicitly generated after
parsing the partition-table by accessing the referenced reporter
object.
Now the report is explicitly created by calling the 'generate_report'
member function. At this point we no longer have access to all
required information so the 'Partition' class was extended to
accommodate for the data needed by MBR as well as GPT reports.
Fixes#4786.
The 'File_content' utility throws an exception whenever a file happens
to get truncated during the reading process. But it silently truncates
the data against the specified limit. In practice, exceeding the limit
is usually an error case. This patch enhances the 'File_content' utility
by throwing 'Truncated_during_read' in the limit-exceeded case as well,
in order to ease the diagnosis of such cases.
Issue #4788
'cap()' will return invalid capability within session destructor, therefore Vram
objects that belong to the session will not be destroyed, leading to danling
references later on. Use '_owner.cap' of session instead.
The new 'init_platform' function performs the platform-specific
component-local low-level initialization. It allows for the
differentiation between core and regular components as well as
kernel-dependent peculiarities.
This patch introduces a consistent notion of a 'Platform'. Within core,
the 'Platform' contains the kernel-specific initialization. Outside
core, the platform sets up the interplay with the parent component. In
all cases, the platform is constructed while running on the initial
stack.
Issue #4784
VirtIO device models can assert interrupts to notify about
buffer and configuration changes. By now, we could only assert
buffer notification interrupts, but no configuration changes.
The latter is needed, e.g. to notify about GPU mode changes.

Depending on the number of partitions the current fixed size of 4096
bytes might not be sufficient for the resulting partitions report.
The use of the expanding reporter allows for accomodating large reports
while still keeping the resource usage down for the common case of
few partitions (with potentially short names).
Fixes#4782.
The implementations of snprintf and vsnprintf are not needed for the
loading of png images by the demo applications. So we can avoid the
dependency from the format library hosted in the libports repository.
Issue #2064
This commit introduces support for the HMB feature and will setup the
buffer during start-up. The host-memory-buffer (HMB) feature is mostly
used on NVMe devices that do not make use of an DRAM cache to store its
translation tables amongst other operational data. Not using HMB can
impair the performance on such devices.
The memory is allocated in 2 MiB chunks of DMA-capable memory and its
total size in bytes is configurable via the 'hmb_size' config attribute.
The driver always checks the minimal and preferred size of the HMB and
issues a warning in case it is not enabled via the configuration.
Moreover, if the configured size is less than the minimal amount
required by the device the HMB is not configured at all and a warning
is issued also. If the configured size is more than the preferred size
it will be capped to that amount.
Fixes#4715.
This patch converts the loader implementation to the 'Session_object'
interface to implement the ability to upgrade the session caps and RAM
after after the session creation. This is needed to accommodate the
change of the Loader::Connection in commit "Remove format strings from
connection types".
Issue #2064
This patch ultimatedly removes format strings from Genode's base API.
Users of the former base/snprintf.h and base/console.h headers may
use the free-standing 'format' library hosted in the ports repository.
Fixes#2064Fixes#3869
This little library implements rudimentary format-string support. It is
useful for porting 3rd-party code that ought not depend on a full libc.
