This patch updates the launchpad config to use XML attributes and
removes the built-in default configuration (which is only meaningful
for demo.run anyway).
Split the netperf run script into 3 ones so that it can be used more easily
in an automated run.
It is solely for foc_arndale by now.
l4linux_netperf.run - use nic via usb2.0
l4linux_netperf-usb30.run - use nic via usb3.0
l4linux_netperf-bridge.run - use nic via usb3.0 + bridge
* Always download md5sum file and check downloaded binaries
* Extend sleep time in l4linux_netperf script, so that DHCP has enough time
* Fix regexp rule in l4linux_netperf run script to work with MAC addresses
containing only numbers
Fix#787
* Add platform_drv for usb_drv, sd_card_drv and ahci
* Add ahci driver and part_blk on top of it
* add linux instance using SATA partition
* add VIM using SATA partition
Don't use the xhci USB host controller for HID and NIC in the l4linux
run script. It doesn't work on the Pandaboard, and isn't needed for the
Arndale board. Moreover, provide a MAC address, and add a providing
rule in the KDB UART driver to supress ugly warnings. Fix#763
With this patch, 'liquid_framebuffer' can be reconfigured at runtime.
The configuration arguments are now provided as XML attributes, matching
those for 'nit_fb'. Furthermore, two new configuration options are added:
<config ...
resize_handle="off" - show/hide a resize handle widget in the lower
right window corner
decoration="on" - show/hide window decoration
(title bar and borders)
/>
Fixes#740Fixes#14
Print Fiasco.OC kernel debugger messages into a file instead of a pipe
in the default l4linux run-script. Thereby rarely triggered issues by the
nightly running buildbot can be analyzed after the test failed.
The memory allocation heuristics in the usb driver provided by dde_linux
changed with the recent commit 71b2b42936.
Apparently, the new variant requires a larger memory pool. Increasing
the quota is a temporary fix until the memory allocator gets revisited.
This commit comprises the following changes to enable L4Linux to use several
CPUs:
* change default configuration for x86 and ARM
* add atomic cmpxchg operation to l4re library
* implement l4_sleep (per thread)
* enable setting affinity for VCPUs and IRQs
* move "per CPU" section within linker-script (x86 only)
* introduce SMP run-script for pandaboard
* deactivate direct scheduler (Fiasco.OC syscall) access by L4Linux
The additional quota is needed because of the recent performance
optimizations of the USB/networking code, e.g., to support the
increased NIC packet-stream buffer size.
Use terminals for LOG output of L4Android scenario, as well as a terminal
session for the Linux terminal. Now everything can be used interactively
on one screen: the Linux/Android framebuffer, the Linux console, and the
LOG-output of L4Linux.
When introducing an avl-tree to re-find known capabilities in Fiasco.OC
(issue #112), the memory demand of apllications was slightly increased.
So we've to give the pl11x driver more memory by default. Fixes#140.
The old variant provided 8K capability slots to all processes on core,
which increased binaries by 180 KB for the static allocator. I reduced it
to 4K capabilities stay under 100 KB overhead for the allocator.
Anyway, pci_drv and pl11x_drv need more RAM quota now: 2M for pl11x_drv
and 1M for pci_drv.
