When this flag is set in the config tag, the NIC router will print a short information to the log for each general state change of a domain. This includes currently the IP-configuration state and the number of connected NIC sessions. This a useful addition as the normal verbose flag's purpose is a very deep insight into almost every activity in the router, which is cool for debugging sophisticated problems but normally floods the log and therefore discards this option for, e.g., desktop systems. In such systems, the new verbosity is pretty discreet but already gives a good hint on why packets may get dropped by the router although the routing rules are correct. Issue #2534 |

This directory contains ports of popular 3rd-party software to Genode. Usage ----- The tool './tool/ports/prepare_port' in the toplevel directory automates the task of downloading and preparing the library source codes. You can select individual packages that have to be prepared by specifying their base names (without the version number) as command-line argument. For example, the following command prepares both the C library and the Freetype library: ! ./tool/ports/prepare_port libc freetype To compile and link against 3rd-party libraries of the 'libports' repository, you have to include the repository into the build process by appending it to the 'REPOSITORIES' declaration of your '<build-dir>/etc/build.conf' file. Under the hood -------------- For each library, there is a file contained in the 'libports/ports/' subdirectory. The file is named after the library and contains the library-specific rules for downloading the source code and installing header files. How does 'libports' relate to the other repositories? ----------------------------------------------------- Most libraries hosted in the 'libports' repository expect a complete C library, which is provided with the 'libc' package. Please do not forget to prepare the libc package when using any of the other libports packages. The libc, in turn, depends on the 'os' repository for its back end. Because the 'os' repository is the home of the dynamic linker, libraries contained in 'libports' are safe to assume the presence of the dynamic linker and, thus, should be built as shared libraries.
