To handle all pending timeouts in the context of scheduling a timeout was only necessary because the Timeout framework once made use of the Alarm framework. The method Alarm_scheduler::schedule_absolute took an absolute deadline as argument and we couldn't change this beause the Alarm framework was also used without the Timeout framework. We had to calculate this absolute deadline with the now time of the Timeout framework but the Alarm framework has its own now time that is always a bit behind the one of the Timeout framework. This lead to bad decisisons when finding the right position for the new timeout. Now, we can call schedule_absolute with a relative duration and thereby fix the problem. When we schedule an absolute timeout without considering the small time difference, the end-time for the timeout that is calculated using the local time value is also smaller than the expected end-time. This can also lead to directly triggering timeouts that should have triggered with a certain delay. As it is not trivial to update the local time value while scheduling a timeout _without_ calling other timeout handlers, we simply raise the duration of the new timeout by the age of the local time value.

=============================== Genode source-code repositories =============================== This directory contains the source-code repositories of the Genode OS Framework. Each sub directory has the same principle layout as described in the build-system manual: :Build-system manual: [https://genode.org/documentation/developer-resources/build_system] The build system uses a configurable selection of those reposities to obtain the source codes for the build process. The repositories are not independent but build upon of each other: :'base': This directory contains the source-code repository of the fundamental frameworks and interfaces of Genode. Furthermore, it contains the generic parts of core. :'base-<platform>': These directories contain platform-specific source-code repositories complementing the 'base' repository. The following platforms are supported: :'linux': Linux kernel (both x86_32 and x86_64) :'nova': NOVA hypervisor developed at University of Technology Dresden See [https://genode.org/documentation/platforms/nova] :'foc': Fiasco.OC is a modernized version of the Fiasco microkernel with a completely revised kernel interface fostering capability-based security. It is not compatible with L4/Fiasco. See [https://genode.org/documentation/platforms/foc] :'hw': The hw platform allows the execution of Genode on bare ARM and x86 hardware without the need for a separate kernel. The kernel functionality is included in core except in the special case of the Muen separation kernel. See [https://genode.org/documentation/platforms/hw] and [https://genode.org/documentation/platforms/muen] :'okl4': OKL4 kernel (x86_32 and ARM) developed at Open-Kernel-Labs. See [https://genode.org/documentation/platforms/okl4] :'pistachio': L4ka::Pistachio kernel developed at University of Karlsruhe. See [https://genode.org/documentation/platforms/pistachio] :'fiasco': L4/Fiasco kernel developed at University of Technology Dresden. See [https://genode.org/documentation/platforms/fiasco] :'sel4': seL4 microkernel developed at NICTA/General Dynamics See[https://sel4.systems/] :'os': This directory contains the non-base OS components such as the init process, device drivers, and basic system services. :'demo': This directory contains the source-code repository of various services and applications that we use for demonstration purposes. For example, a graphical application launcher called Launchpad and the Scout tutorial browser. :'hello_tutorial': Tutorial for creating a simple client-server scenario with Genode. This repository includes documentation and the complete source code. :'libports': This source-code repository contains ports of popular open-source libraries to Genode, most importantly the C library. The repository contains no upstream source code but means to download the code and adapt it to Genode. For instructions about how to use this mechanism, please consult the README file at the top level of the repository. Among the 3rd-party libraries are Qt5, libSDL, freetype, Python, ncurses, Mesa, and libav. :'dde_linux': This source-code repository contains the device driver environment for executing Linux device drivers natively on Genode. Currently, this repository hosts the USB stack. :'dde_ipxe': This source-code repository contains the device-driver environment for executing drivers of the iPXE project. :'dde_bsd': This source-code repository contains the device-driver environment for drivers of the OpenBSD operating system. :'dde_rump': This source-code repository contains the port of rump kernels, which are used to execute subsystems of the NetBSD kernel as user level processes. The repository contains a server that uses a rump kernel to provide various NetBSD file systems to Genode. :'ports': This source-code repository hosts ports of 3rd-party applications to Genode. The repository does not contain upstream source code but provides a mechanism for downloading the official source distributions and adapt them to the Genode environment. The used mechanism is roughly the same as used for the 'libports' repository. Please consult 'libports/README' for further information. :'gems': This source-code repository contains Genode applications that use both native Genode interfaces as well as features of other high-level repositories, in particular shared libraries provided by 'libports'.
