Added SKB bitmap allocator, use Nic::Packet_allocator in packet stream, use slab
allocators on top of back-end AVL allocator, split allocators in cached/uncached
for general purpose/DMA allocation, added patch to original code to distinguish
cached or uncached memory requests, take advantage of and implement TX bursts
(or SKB batching), call interrupt handlers until they return unhandled.
Make calls using IPCs IRQ safe, handle packet exhaustion, removed
'Packet_pool', tweak TCP rmem and wmem buffer sizes to show better performance
results, use 'Net::Packet_allocator, fix 'update-patch' Makefile command
Avoid the use of deprecated 'MASK' enum in CPU register 'Asid'.
Enable the use of the 'K' bit in MMU translations.
Treat any try to modify existing valid entries in section- and
pagetables when doing 'insert_translation' as error.
Beautify concerned files.
By allocating the packet-stream dataspace for block sessions as
uncached, we can use DMA to directly read and write into the client
buffer. Currently, the OMAP4 SD-card driver is using this feature.
With this patch, the driver code gets complemented with DMA support.
The support for master DMA, in turn, cleared the way for using
interrupts to wait for the completion of transfers, which largely
relieves the CPU compared to the polling PIO mode. Consequently, the new
version has a much lower CPU footprint.
In the current version, both modes of operation PIO and DMA are
functional. However, PIO mode is retained for benchmarking purposes only
and will possibly be removed to keep the driver simple. It is disabled
in the driver's 'main.cc'.
This patch replaces the jiffies thread in 'sd_card/omap4/bench' calls to
'Timer::Session::elapsed_ms()'. This way, we use wall-clock time for the
measurements. Depending on the load of the rest of the system, the
previous version used to accumulate the inaccuracy for each 'msleep'
call.
For 64-bit registers we cannot compute MASK and SHIFT values via enums
because enum values are always of type int. But we can use static member
functions instead. Furthermore, the patch fixes the type trait for
64-bit registers. (apparently, this access width was never used so far)
The enable the use of 'Attached_ram_dataspace' objects as DMA buffers,
we need to pass the 'cached' flag to the constructor. By default, the
dataspace is cached, which corresponds to the original behaviour.
The Demo of 64bit Genode/NOVA fails during the booting phase when
physical memory was tried to be mapped lying above 4G boundary.
(qemu -m 4096 triggered it on some systems). The memory never got
mapped and the attempt to access the virtual region resulted
in a unexpected page fault inside Genode core.
The latest revision removed the artificial boundary of 4G for 64bit.

sgr0 is currently implemented as a wrapper of sgr(0) which
seems to work fine.
For now we accept but ignore certain sgr sequences like for
example [0;10;1m which is generated by lynx even when using
TERM=linux (I am not sure yet if that's actually valid at all).
