Previously, the trace control of a thread was initialized in its
constructor (which is generic for all components). This has the
disadvantage that the CPU-session-pointer member of the thread might not
be valid at this point. And it cannot be replaced by using the
"deprecated_env" CPU session neither as constructing the deprecated
environment in causes troubles in Core. But as the trace control
shouldn't be needed in Core anyway, the initialization can be moved to
the Thread::start implementation of non-core components. This code
already takes care of the CPU session pointer.
Fixes#2901
The sinfo API now also exports PCI devices without logical IRQs.
Therefore, explicitly check interrupt count in get_msi_params() function
and ignore such devices.
- Use latest Muen version
- Sync VirtualBox Muen subject state
- Drop unneccessary subject IP patch
- Adapt Muen RUN_OPTs
- Update documentation
Note: the GPL 2017 toolchain is now required and as the debug output
format has changed the mulog-subject.py script must be updated on
autopilot instances.
AVL trees can't be copied with the default copy constructor as the
parent pointer of the first item of both of the resulting trees would
point to the original tree. Copying an AVL node, however, generally
violates the integrity of the corresponding tree. The copy constructor
of Avl_tree is used in some places but in those places it can be
replaced easily. So, this commit deletes the copy constructor of
Avl_node_base which makes Avl_node and Avl_tree non-copyable.
Issue #2654
The patch adjust the code of the base, base-<kernel>, and os repository.
To adapt existing components to fix violations of the best practices
suggested by "Effective C++" as reported by the -Weffc++ compiler
argument. The changes follow the patterns outlined below:
* A class with virtual functions can no longer publicly inherit base
classed without a vtable. The inherited object may either be moved
to a member variable, or inherited privately. The latter would be
used for classes that inherit 'List::Element' or 'Avl_node'. In order
to enable the 'List' and 'Avl_tree' to access the meta data, the
'List' must become a friend.
* Instead of adding a virtual destructor to abstract base classes,
we inherit the new 'Interface' class, which contains a virtual
destructor. This way, single-line abstract base classes can stay
as compact as they are now. The 'Interface' utility resides in
base/include/util/interface.h.
* With the new warnings enabled, all member variables must be explicitly
initialized. Basic types may be initialized with '='. All other types
are initialized with braces '{ ... }' or as class initializers. If
basic types and non-basic types appear in a row, it is nice to only
use the brace syntax (also for basic types) and align the braces.
* If a class contains pointers as members, it must now also provide a
copy constructor and assignment operator. In the most cases, one
would make them private, effectively disallowing the objects to be
copied. Unfortunately, this warning cannot be fixed be inheriting
our existing 'Noncopyable' class (the compiler fails to detect that
the inheriting class cannot be copied and still gives the error).
For now, we have to manually add declarations for both the copy
constructor and assignment operator as private class members. Those
declarations should be prepended with a comment like this:
/*
* Noncopyable
*/
Thread(Thread const &);
Thread &operator = (Thread const &);
In the future, we should revisit these places and try to replace
the pointers with references. In the presence of at least one
reference member, the compiler would no longer implicitly generate
a copy constructor. So we could remove the manual declaration.
Issue #465
This is necessary because in contrast to the zynq boards (see specs in genode-world), only zynq_qemu uses UART_0.
These files should thus fall under the zynq_qemu spec.
Fixes#2615
Instead of changing the attributes (e.g., Xd bit) of the top-level page-tables,
set them to allow everything. Only leafs of the paging hierarchy are set
according to the paging attributes given by core. Otherwise, top-level page-
table attributes are changed during lifetime, which requires a TLB flush
operation (not intended in the semantic of the kernel/core).
This led to problems when using the non-executable features introduced by
issue #1723 in the recent past.
Recent work related to issue 1723 showed that there is potential
to get rid of code duplication in MMU fault handling especially
with regard to ARM cpus.
* Instead of always re-load page-tables when a thread context is switched
only do this when another user PD's thread is the next target,
core-threads are always executed within the last PD's page-table set
* remove the concept of the mode transition
* instead map the exception vector once in bootstrap code into kernel's
memory segment
* when a new page directory is constructed for a user PD, copy over the
top-level kernel segment entries on RISCV and X86, on ARM we use a designated
page directory register for the kernel segment
* transfer the current CPU id from bootstrap to core/kernel in a register
to ease first stack address calculation
* align cpu context member of threads and vms, because of x86 constraints
regarding the stack-pointer loading
* introduce Align_at template for members with alignment constraints
* let the x86 hardware do part of the context saving in ISS, by passing
the thread context into the TSS before leaving to user-land
* use one exception vector for all ARM platforms including Arm_v6
