The lx_emul_virt_to_pages implementation initialized the page ref
counter only for the first page, leaving the remaining elements in
uninitialized state. This, in turn, rendered the Linux page_pool (as
used by the emac network driver) ineffective, ultimately leading the a
memory leak. The fix changes the call of 'init_page_count' to take the
loop variable as argument.
Issue #4225
Driver code such as mfd-core.c may pass 0 as argument n to kcalloc,
which eventually results in an allocation size 0.
res = kcalloc(cell->num_resources, sizeof(*res), GFP_KERNEL);
Since 'res' is checked against NULL for success, kmalloc must not return
a NULL pointer in this case. The patch works around this issue by
forcing an allocation size of 1 byte in this case.
Issue #4253
Clock providers such as drivers/clk/sunxi-ng/ccu-sun8i-r.c don't use
regular init calls but declare their init functions via CLK_OF_DECLARE,
which fill the __clk_of_table. Linux populates the table statically by
using special sections declared in the linker script. In contrast, we
populate the table by expanding the macro to global constructor
functions.
The __clk_of_table is then processed by the call of of_clk_init(NULL).
Issue #4253
The re-newed approach currently supports ARM 64-bit only.
It depends on the Platform API of the ARM architecture.
It tries to meet the original semantic of the Linux kernel
functions as far as possible. To achieve this, device drivers
using this library should reference the original Linux kernel
headers at foremost. Only the headers in `src/include/lx_emul/shadow`
have to shadow clone the original ones.
Fix#4225
skb_push() already increases the skb->len by ETH_HLEN, hence adding
ETH_HLEN to the packet_size is redundant.
A too large packet size becomes a problem for large MTUs. With a maximum
MTU of 1500, adding ETH_HLEN twice will lead to a packet size of 1528.
Since this is larger than what we expect for good-old Ethernet (max. 1522),
some clients (e.g. the e1000 model in vbox5) may drop these packets.

The wpa_supplicant refuses to set the BSSID in case it is quoted.
Removing the quotes allows for specifying the BSSID in the
configuration.
Fixes#4175.
- Do not perform desctruction on report updatea in EP because
'unregister_device' may block on Led state 'update' (synchronous
control message) leading to the driver being stuck because no more
signals are received
- Check if device is present in 'submit_urb' calls
fixes#4166
- Signal device ready depending on state (ready or not) immediately or
when "actconfig" is set
- Report new devices when ready
- Drain packet stream in case there is no device present (needed for
synchronous operations at client side)
- Do not use 'session_device' on device destruction, check pointer
directly instead
issue #4149
Comment in Linux sources:
Since an ethernet header is 14 bytes network drivers often end up with
the IP header at an unaligned offset. The IP header can be aligned by
shifting the start of the packet by 2 bytes. Drivers should do this
with:
skb_reserve(skb, NET_IP_ALIGN);
This is ensured when using netdev_alloc_skb_ip_align().
Issue #4094
A Lx::Task is now associated to a USB device not the session any more.
This implies that a task lives as long as the device making it possible
to gracefully handle outstanding requests (i.e., synchronous) in case
the session has been closed.

The former implementation called 'TRACE_AND_STOP' which led to the
'usb_host_drv' to stop whenever such a function was called. Rather
than stopping return '0' and let the contrib code deal with this
situation.
Issue #4116.
As linux drivers may distinguish device configuration by pci subdevice id in
addition to the pci device id, the former must also be used for finding the
matching entry. Otherwise, e.g., the iwlwifi driver might load the wrong
firmware.
Side note: Add break statement to save superfluous iterations after
match was identified.
Fixes genodelabs#4076
This API rework eases the access to memory-mapped I/O registers and
interrupts when using the platform driver. It introduces the notions of
- Platform::Device - one device obtained from a platform session
- Platform::Device::Mmio - locally-mapped MMIO registers of a device
- Platform::Device::Irq - interface for receiving device interrupts
The patch touches several drivers. Some drivers would require a
significant structural change to adopt the new API (e.g., net/virtio,
dde_linux drivers, imx gpio). In these cases, the patch adds
compatibility shims meant to be temporary. In other cases (e.g., imx
i2c), the adaptation was simple enough to carry through.
Fixes#4075
This patch extends the 'Platform_session::alloc_dma_buffer' interface
with a 'Cache' argument that corresponds to the argument accepted by
'Ram_allocator::alloc', which is used by the platform driver under the
hood.
Since the x86 platform driver used to be hardwired to allocate DMA
buffers as UNCACHED, I adjusted all drivers by specifying the UNCACHED
argument. Right now, this is needed as a hint for core to steer the
allocation of I/O page tables. Once we eliminate the need for such hints
(by introducing an explicit 'Region_map::attach_dma' operation), we can
revisit the drivers individually because cached DMA buffers should
generally be fine on the x86 architecture.
Issue #2243
The commits adds the same configuration values as supported up to now by
the monolithic usb driver. In contrast to the original, by default all drivers
are started. Disabling a controller type is used by Sculpt, e.g. for OHCI if
running Sculpt inside Virtualbox.
This patch is an interim fix for using HID devices that offer a HID
interface as not the first interface. It also supplements the
interface classes as supplemental information to the USB-devices
report.
Fixes#4035
* Update the 'packet_size' information with the actual length for
each isoc frame to be able to handle short reads at the client side.
* Copy the whole transfer buffer because the host controller stores
the data at the original offsets, i.e., the buffer is not densely
packed.
Fixes#4018.
When the usb_net_drv was introduced in ports/run/netperf.inc, the
netperf_lxip_usb test on x86_64/hw/pc triggered the calling of the
netif_stop_queue dummy at
contrib/<DDE_LINUX>/src/drivers/usb_net/drivers/net/usb/usbnet.c:1464. As
netif_start_queue was also a dummy and allowed to be called, we tried allowing
calls to the netif_stop_queue dummy as well which fixed the
netperf_lxip_usb test on x86_64/hw/pc.
