This commit removes most of the default launchers, which are now
superseded by the interactive component addition feature of the '+'
menu.
We keep the chroot components because we cannot easily create chroot
instances interactively yet.
The usb_devices_rom is still needed because its configuration is meant
to be edited at runtime.
It also adds a 'themed_wm' launcher to make the initial sculpt
experience easier. For knowledgeable users, the index contains all
ingredients needed to build a multi-component window manager manually.
This commit turns the '+' menu into a tool for the following tasks:
- Selecting and downloading of depot index files
- Browsing of the hierarchical depot index files
- Installation of packages found in the index files
- Interactive routing configuration of a selected package
- Deployment of configured component
Sculpt used to restrict the size of leitzentrale windows to the screen
area that is not obstructed by the menu and log. This is useful for the
runtime view and the inspect window. However, the menu should be allowed
to use the entire screen because it overlays the other content.
Before this patch, the menu wouldn't be displayed completely on small
resolutions (e.g., 1024x768 when using the VESA driver) because the log
at the bottom of the screen imposed the size constraint on the menu.
With the patch, the menu is able to overlay the log window.
This patch enhances the runtime view such that not only immediate
dependencies but also all transitive dependencies of the selected
component are displayed. This way, the graph nicely reveals the
trusted computing base of the selection.
Instead of parsing the runtime's configuration each time when generating
the graph dialog (e.g., when changing the hover state), extract the
relevant information only on configuration changes.
The runtime view, launcher query, and depot query increase the
complexity of the graph without providing a tangible value to the user.
This patch omits those components from the runtime view to make the
graph less confusing.
Append "..." to button labels whenever the button does not perform an
immediate action but merely toggles user-interface elements. This
tells the user that the button can be pressed without risk.
With this commit, the 'installation' input of the depot-download
subsystem accepts <index> nodes in addition to <archive> nodes. Each
index node refers to one index file specified via the 'path' attribute.
This commit also improves the tracking of failure states. Once an
installation job failed (due to a download of verification error),
it won't get re-scheduled. In the past, such failure states were not kept
across subsequent import iterations, which could result in infinite
re-attempts when an installation contained archives from multiple users.
The the progress of the download process is now reflected by the
"progress" attribute on the download manager's state report, which
allows the final report to contain the list of installed/failed archives
along with the overall progress/completed state. The detection of the
latter is important for the sculpt manager for reattempting the
deployment of the completed packages.
The patch enhances the depot_download.run script to stress the new
abilities. In particular, the scenario downloads a mix of index files
(one present, one missing) and archives, from two different depot users
(genodelabs and nfeske).
Issue #3172
The input for the pkg index is located at gems/run/sculpt/index.
The sculpt.run script uses this input for generating the depot index
file at depot/<user>/index/<version>.
The tool/depot/publish tool support arguments of the form
<user>/index/<version> where <version> corresponds to the Sculpt
version.
Issue #3172
This prevents the situation where the user has booted the system, has
not yet selected a storage target to "use" for Sculpt, yet clicks on the
'+' menu. Such clicks show no immediate response because Sculpt cannot
know where to deploy the selected package. But since the user is not
guided towards resolving this prerequisite, it's better to not present
the menu in the first place. The '+' appears as soon as a storage target
is selected for "use".
This error message may occur during the startup of a multi-component
application when the very first dialog is generated just after the menu
view is ready. It is not an error.
This commit adds the following styles:
button/enter - for entering a sub menu
button/back - for returning from a sub menu
button/radio - for picking one item of a list
button/checkbox - for making a selection
frame/transient - for temporary GUI elements
This message is diagnostic, but also occurs in legitimate situations
such as the wm in Sculpt's Leitzentrale where the focus is managed
completely outside the wm.
The zynq nic_drv also depends on hw, we therefore adapted the folder
structure for clarity. Also renamed the binary to 'zynq_nic_drv' to
prevent conflicts and to allow removing the cadence_gem spec.
Issue #3179
This patch simplifies the propagation of pointer shapes from
window-manager clients to the pointer. The "shape" report is routed to
the wm server, which, in turn, reports it to the pointer. This way, the
pointer can easily correlate the label of the application's "shape"
report with the label of the application's Nitpicker session. The
formerly used manual rewriting of the "shape" label is not needed
anymore.
Since the wm server provides a "Report" service now, its <provides>
declaration must cover "Report" in addition to "Nitpicker" to avoid
runtime error messages. Vice versa, the wm is now expected to request
"shape" reports, which should be routed to the pointer (using the
'label_last' routing attribute).

Refactor the graphical terminal server to internally represent
characters as 16-bit codepoints and handle the duplex terminal stream as
UTF-8.
- Make the Codepoint class printable to the Output interface
- Decode data received at the Terminal session from UTF-8 to a 16-bit
character
- Pass 16-bit characters through terminal decoder and char-cell arrays
- Send Unicode through terminal session in a burst of UTF-8 bytes
Fix#3148
The minimal-footprint Ada runtime for implementing library-like
functionality in SPARK is now called "spark" runtime.
The full Ada runtime for entire components written in Ada and using the
libc as glue to the underlying system will move to the world repository
as "ada" runtime.
Issue #3144
The 'run_genode_until' procedure only called 'run_power_on' to reset
the target machine. That works will with the softreset module, which
is used by all x86-based test system but falls short regarding ARM
boards. The way those boards are connected requires turning the power
off and on for a complete cycle.
The situation where a 'Session_policy' is constructed for a label with
no matching policy is in almost all cases a configuration problem.
A diagnostic message eases pin-pointing such mistaks. By adding the
message to the 'Session_policy', servers don't need to manually handle
the exception to provide diagnostic information. This simplifies the
server code in many components.
In less interactive mode, the run script doesn't give up on missing test
archives but instead removes the corresponding tests and marks them "missing".
This mode avoids total failure of a platform in automated test infrastructures
when only a few archives are missing.
Fixes#3120
