Markus Partheymueller cbf4a7b0c3 vancouver: Disk support
Vancouver can now assign block devices to guests using the Block
interface. The machine has to be configured to use a specified drive,
which could be theoretically routed to different partitions or services
via policy definitions. Currently the USB driver only supports one
device. Genode's AHCI driver is untested.

If the session quota is too low, random pagefaults can occur on the
stack.

According to @Nils-TUD, it is necessary to protect the DiskCommit
messages with a lock against deadlocking with the timer. Observations
showed that this mitigates some problems with Gentoo on real hardware.

This directory contains ports of popular 3rd-party applications to Genode.

The 'ports' repository follows the line of the 'libports' repository.
For instructions about downloading and building 3rd-party applications,
please refer to 'libports/README'.


Dependencies from other repositories
------------------------------------

Application provided by the 'ports' repository typically expect a rich
runtime environment, including shared libraries provided by the 'libports'
repository. Hence, 'ports' depends on 'libports'. Furthermore, applications
may require additional repositories. For example, the Arora web browser depends
on the 'qt4' repository.
