The modular lx_kit seperates the required back end functionality of the
Linux emulation environment from the front end. Thereby each driver can
reuse specific parts or supply more suitable implementations by itself.
It is used to reduce the amount of redundant code in each driver.
The lx_kit is split into several layers whose structure is as follows:
The first layer in _repos/dde_linux/src/include/lx_emul_ contains those
header files that provide the structural definitions and function
declarations of the Linux API, e.g. _errno.h_ provides all error code
values. The second layer in _repos/dde_linux/src/include/lx_emul/impl_
contains the implementation of selected functions, e.g. _slab.h_
provides the implementation of 'kmalloc()'. The lx_kit back end API is
the third layer and provides the _Lx::Malloc_ interface
(_repos/dde_linux/src/include/lx_kit/malloc.h_) which is used to
implement 'kmalloc()'. There are several generic implementations of the
lx_kit interfaces that can be used by a driver.
A driver typically includes a 'lx_emul/impl/xyz.h' header once
directly in its lx_emul compilation unit. The lx_kit interface files
are only included in those compilation units that use or implement the
interface. If a driver wants to use a generic implementation it must
add the source file to its source file list. The generic
implementations are located in _repos/dde_linux/src/lx_kit/_.
The modular lx_kit still depends on the private _lx_emul.h_ header file
that is tailored to each driver. Since the lx_kit already contains much
of the declarations and definitions that were originally placed in
these private header files, those files can now ommit a large amount
of code.
Fixes#1974.
This patch integrates three region maps into each PD session to
reduce the session overhead and to simplify the PD creation procedure.
Please refer to the issue cited below for an elaborative discussion.
Note the API change:
With this patch, the semantics of core's RM service have changed. Now,
the service is merely a tool for creating and destroying managed
dataspaces, which are rarely needed. Regular components no longer need a
RM session. For this reason, the corresponding argument for the
'Process' and 'Child' constructors has been removed.
The former interface of the 'Rm_session' is not named 'Region_map'. As a
minor refinement, the 'Fault_type' enum values are now part of the
'Region_map::State' struct.
Issue #1938
- Use 'label' attribute to identify device instead of
bus/dev and vendor_id/product_id
- Implement release_interface RPC
- Report 'label' as well as 'bus' and 'dev'
- Add policy handling to raw driver (includes reconfiguration
at runtime)
- Use own memory backing store for large DMA allocations
Issue #1863.
Do not use slabs for allocations above 64KB, this seems to lead to memory
corruptions and the error described in issue #1613 under certain circumstances.

The report lists all connected devices and gets updated when devices are
added or removed.
Example report:
<devices>
<device vendor_id="0x17ef" product_id="0x4816"/>
<device vendor_id="0x0a5c" product_id="0x217f"/>
<device vendor_id="0x8087" product_id="0x0020"/>
<device vendor_id="0x8087" product_id="0x0020"/>
<device vendor_id="0x1d6b" product_id="0x0002"/>
<device vendor_id="0x1d6b" product_id="0x0002"/>
</devices>
There is no distinction yet for multiple devices of the same type.
The report is named "devices" and an example policy for 'report_rom' would
look like:
<policy label="vbox -> usb_devices" report="usb_drv -> devices"/>
The report only gets generated if enabled in the 'usb_drv' configuration:
<config>
<raw>
<report devices="yes"/>
</raw>
</config>
Fixes#1506
This patch adds const qualifiers to the functions Allocator::consumed,
Allocator::overhead, Allocator::avail, and Range_allocator::valid_addr.
Fixes#1481
On ARM it's relevant to not only distinguish between ordinary cached memory
and write-combined one, but also having non-cached memory too. To insert the
appropriated page table entries e.g.: in the base-hw kernel, we need to preserve
the information about the kind of memory from allocation until the pager
resolves a page fault. Therefore, this commit introduces a new Cache_attribute
type, and replaces the write_combined boolean with the new type where necessary.
This patch changes the top-level directory layout as a preparatory
step for improving the tools for managing 3rd-party source codes.
The rationale is described in the issue referenced below.
