The new 'verify' component facilitates the code of GnuPG to verify
detached OpenPGP signatures against public keys.
Since GnuPG depends on libgcrypt and libgpg-error, the patch adds these
libraries to the libports repository.
Fixes#2640
- Update FatFS port from 0.07e to 0.13
- Multi-device support
- Basic test at run/fatfs
- Adaption of existing components
Note, ffat is now consistently renamed to fatfs.
Ref #2410
This patch removes the component_entry_point library, which used to
proved a hook for the libc to intercept the call of the
'Component::construct' function. The mechansim has several shortcomings
(see the discussion in the associated issue) and was complex. So we
eventually discarded the approach in favor of the explicit handling of
the startup.
A regular Genode component provides a 'Component::construct' function,
which is determined by the dynamic linker via a symbol lookup.
For the time being, the dynamic linker falls back to looking up a 'main'
function if no 'Component::construct' function could be found.
The libc provides an implementation of 'Component::construct', which
sets up the libc's task handling and finally call the function
'Libc::Component::construct' from the context of the appllication task.
This function is expected to be provided by the libc-using application.
Consequently, Genode components that use the libc have to implement the
'Libc::Component::construct' function.
The new 'posix' library provides an implementation of
'Libc::Component::construct' that calls a main function. Hence, POSIX
programs that merely use the POSIX API merely have to add 'posix' to the
'LIBS' declaration in their 'target.mk' file. Their execution starts at
'main'.
Issue #2199
This patch adjusts the various users of the 'Child' API to the changes
on the account of the new non-blocking parent interface. It also removes
the use of the no-longer-available 'Connection::KEEP_OPEN' feature.
With the adjustment, we took the opportunity to redesign several
components to fit the non-blocking execution model much better, in
particular the demo applications.
Issue #2120
Now rlibs are actually linked to programs. Target files have been
modified to not generate code that requires compiler-rt. Added a target
for libstd-rust, but it's very broken right now. Moved alloc_system to
the libports folder because either a memory allocator needs to be
written in rust or posix_memalign needs to be implemented. Changed
liblibc to use freebsd as the OS instead of netbsd. Added a library with
unwind dummy functions.
Rust relies on atomic builtins, which are not implemented in libgcc for
ARM. One was implemented in rust, which was sufficient to get the
current rust test to run. Rust libs were added into the group of libs
for the linker so order no longer matters. The raspberry pi now uses an
armv6 target.

Issue #1899
Instead of holding SPEC-variable dependent files and directories inline
within the repository structure, move them into 'spec' subdirectories
at the corresponding levels, e.g.:
repos/base/include/spec
repos/base/mk/spec
repos/base/lib/mk/spec
repos/base/src/core/spec
...
Moreover, this commit removes the 'platform' directories. That term was
used in an overloaded sense. All SPEC-relative 'platform' directories are
now named 'spec'. Other files, like for instance those related to the
kernel/architecture specific startup library, where moved from 'platform'
directories to explicit, more meaningful places like e.g.: 'src/lib/startup'.
Fix#1673
Some SDL applications expect the SDL_image headers in include/SDL to be
reachable without the SDL/ prefix. This patch adds the corresponding
search path. Furthermore it enables support for XPM images.
This commit adds a port the jitterentropy library to Genode. As
backend on x86_{32,64} 'rdtsc' is used and on ARMv{6,7} the
performance-counter.
Fixes#1239.
