Several DMA pools of the EHCI/UHCI USB host controller driver declare
that buffers should not cross 4K boundaries. If this property is not met
fatal errors like NMIs may happen during USB operation.
Discussed in issue #5000
Certain USB devices do not react anymore after an endpoint reset
in the use case of USB devices passed through to a virtual machine.
When investigating the only USB session client that needs the
flush transfers request - namely the Qemu xhci model used in
VirtualBox - there seems to be no need to reset the endpoint in fact.

USB devio splits large transaction into 16 KiB buffers in scatter-gather
lists. Unfortunately, this mechanism seems unreliable most certainly because
of issue #4809 "DDE Linux struct page object aliasing".
Issue #5036
Currently, running ripgrep on Genode emits
"Warning: sysconf(71) not implemented".
Return -1 without setting errno, which is a valid return value according
to getpwnam(3) and silence the warning.
Fixes#5043
This patch replaces the original policy-based 'update_from_xml' by a new
method that takes three functors for creating, destroying, and updating
elements as arguments. XML nodes are associated with their corresponding
internal data models by annotating the element type with the
'type_matches' class function and the 'matches' method.
The patch also improves safety by enforcing that list-model elements can
never be copied.
Fixes#4317
This commit adds support to initialize the timekeeping for
the Linux subsystem with the value from the RTC.
Only the seconds part of timespec64 is supported.
Issue genodelabs/genode#4957
FreeBSD libc code uses only a single spinlock instance and, thus there
is no obvious reason why it would need to be implemented as an actual
spinlock. _spinlock() and _spinunlock() functions are implemented with a
static pthread mutex.
Issue #725
This commit adds a new configuration option, `dst_addr` to the
'sntp_client' that accepts either an IP address or a DNS hostname. If a
DNS hostname is provided, the 'sntp_client' will resolve the IP address
before each SNTP request. The 'dst_ip' configuration option is
deprecated but kept for compatibility until 'dst_addr' is fully adopted.
xsd/net_types.xsd: add Net_address type
sntp_dummy_rtc: adjust configuration to use pool.ntp.org
