When re-configuring the NIC router, determine for each domain if at least one
interface stays with the domain. If a domain fullfills this and has a
dynamic IP config (received via a DHCP client), keep the IP config.
To achieve this, the following changes have been made to the existing NIC
router code:
* Split-up Interface::handle_config into three steps:
1) Determine for each interface if its domain can keep its IP config or
or if it has to mark it invalid. This must be done before (re-)attaching
any interface because during "attach" several decisions are made based on
the validity of the IP config of corresponding the domain.
(E.g. whether to participate in sending DHCP DISCOVERs {IP config
invalid} or whether to participate in sending pending ARP REQUESTs
{IP config valid} ).
2) Detach, attach, or re-attach each interface according to the
configuration. This must be done before re-considering the temporary
state objects of each interface because the latter might have effects
on the interfaces of remote domains which must then be in place already.
3) Re-consider temporary state objects of each interface. (E.g. transport
layer connection states)
* Re-work IP-config setter in a way that it works as follows:
1) If the old IP config is valid, let all local interfaces as well as remote
interfaces that depend on the IP config of the domain detach from the old
IP config.
2) Overwrite with new IP config
3) If the new IP config is valid, let all local interfaces as well as remote
interfaces that depend on the IP config of the domain attach to the new
IP config.

=================================
Genode Operating System Framework
=================================
This is the source tree of the reference implementation of the Genode OS
architecture. For a general overview about the architecture, please refer to
the project's official website:
:Official project website for the Genode OS Framework:
[https://genode.org/documentation/general-overview]
The current implementation can be compiled for 8 different kernels: Linux,
L4ka::Pistachio, L4/Fiasco, OKL4, NOVA, Fiasco.OC, seL4, and a custom
kernel for running Genode directly on ARM-based hardware. Whereas the Linux
version serves us as development vehicle and enables us to rapidly develop the
generic parts of the system, the actual target platforms of the framework are
microkernels. There is no "perfect" microkernel - and neither should there be
one. If a microkernel pretended to be fit for all use cases, it wouldn't be
"micro". Hence, all microkernels differ in terms of their respective features,
complexity, and supported hardware architectures.
Genode allows the use of each of the kernels listed above with a rich set of
device drivers, protocol stacks, libraries, and applications in a uniform way.
For developers, the framework provides an easy way to target multiple different
kernels instead of tying the development to a particular kernel technology. For
kernel developers, Genode contributes advanced workloads, stress-testing their
kernel, and enabling a variety of application use cases that would not be
possible otherwise. For users and system integrators, it enables the choice of
the kernel that fits best with the requirements at hand for the particular
usage scenario.
Documentation
#############
The primary documentation is the book "Genode Foundations", which is available
on the front page of Genode website:
:Download the book "Genode Foundations":
[https://genode.org]
The book describes Genode in a holistic and comprehensive way. It equips you
with a thorough understanding of the architecture, assists developers with the
explanation of the development environment and system configuration, and
provides a look under the hood of the framework. Furthermore, it contains the
specification of the framework's programming interface.
The project has a quarterly release cycle. Each version is accompanied with
detailed release documentation, which is available at the documentation
section of the project website:
