A new configuration may implicitly change the domain color of the
currently focused session. We need to refresh the report to trigger an
update of the status bar.
This commit replaces the old xray_trigger component by a new component
called global_keys_handler. For details, please refer to the issue text
and the accompanied README file.
Fixes#2554
Whenever a childs is terminated the exit value is propagate through a
new state report. Thereby it becomes possibly for a managing component
to react upon the terminating condition of a child.
Issue #2558.
If the attribute 'interface' is not set in a 'domain' tag, the router tries to
dynamically receive and maintain an IP configuration for that domain by using
DHCP in the client role at all interfaces that connect to the domain. In the
DHCP discover phase, the router simply chooses the first DHCP offer that
arrives. So, no comparison of different DHCP offers is done. In the DHCP
request phase, the server is expected to provide an IP address, a gateway, a
subnet mask, and an IP lease time to the router. If anything substantial goes
wrong during a DHCP exchange, the router discards the outcome of the exchange
and goes back to the DHCP discover phase. At any time where there is no valid
IP configuration present at a domain, the domain does only act as DHCP client
and all other router functionality is disabled for the domain. A domain cannot
act as DHCP client and DHCP server at once. So, a 'domain' tag must either
have an 'interface' attribute or must not contain a 'dhcp-server' tag.
Ref #2534
An IPv4 config (for a domain/interface of the router) consists of
an IPv4 address, a subnet prefix specifier, an optional gateway
IPv4 address, and some flags that declare whether these fields and
the config as a whole are valid. To make the handling of those
tightly connected values easier and less error prone, we encapsulate
them in a new class.
Ref #2534
Under certain circumstances we don't want inits state report to become too
outdated even if there is no change to its config or the sessions of its
children. This is the case if init is requested to provide a capability or RAM
info of it's children via its state report. Now, init automatically updates
the state report with each 1000 ms if the attribute 'child_caps' or
'child_ram' is positively set in the 'report' tag.
Timing itself costs time. Thus, the stressfull timeout phase of the
test is not exactly as long as set but a little bit longer. This is why the
fast timeouts are able to trigger more often than they are expected to
(the timer has a static timeout-rate limit). Normally we consider this effect
through an error tolerance of 10%. But at least on foc x86_32 (PIT with very
low max timeout), timing is so expensive that 10% is not enough. We have to
raise it to 11%.
This patch propages the 'Service_denied' condition of forwarded sessions
to the parent. Without it, the invalid session request stays pending
infinitely, which leads to the problem described in issue #2542. It
turns out that suggested solution given in the issue text is actually
not needed when applying this fix.
Fixes#2542
The ROM filter did not handle the situation where the generated content
exceeds the size of the initially allocated dataspace for the target
buffer. This patch wraps the XML generation in a retry loop that
expands the buffer as needed.
This patch makes the specification of screen coordinates more flexible.
First, the 'origin' attribute allows one to refer to either of the four
screen corners without knowing the screen size. Second, the 'width'
and 'height' values now accept negative values, which are relative to
the screen size.
The 'File_system::Connection' already performs an on-demand session
upgrade should the server report an 'Out_of_caps' or 'Out_of_ram'
condition. So file-system clients are normally relieved from handling
those exceptions. However, the upgrade was limited to two attempts per
operation (which amounts to 16 KiB). When using the Rump VFS plugin in
the VFS server, this amount does not always suffice. So the exception is
reflected to the client. I observed this problem as a message "unhandled
error" printed by fs_rom. This patch removes the upgrade limit such that
a greedy file-system server becomes iteratively upgraded until it stops
arguing or the client's RAM is exhausted.
This was an error output-line for each affected packet previously but it
is pretty normal for the router to receive packets whose network layer
protocol it doesn't know . In the default case, these packets shall be
ignored silently.
Ref #2490
One can configure the NIC router to act as DHCP server at interfaces of a
domain by adding the <dhcp> tag to the configuration of the domain like
this:
<domain name="vbox" interface="10.0.1.1/24">
<dhcp-server ip_first="10.0.1.80"
ip_last="10.0.1.100"
ip_lease_time_sec="3600"
dns_server="10.0.0.2"/>
...
</domain>
The attributes ip_first and ip_last define the available IPv4 address
range while ip_lease_time_sec defines the lifetime of an IPv4 address
assignment in seconds. The IPv4 address range must be in the subnet
defined by the interface attribute of the domain tag and must not cover
the IPv4 address in this attribute. The dns_server attribute gives the
IPv4 address of the DNS server that might also be in another subnet.
The lifetime of an offered assignment is the configured round trip time of
the router while the ip_lease_time_sec is applied only if the offer is
requested by the client in time.
The ports/run/virtualbox_nic_router.run script is an example of how to
use the new DHCP server functionality.

Previously, garbage collect was only done when an incoming packet passed the
Ethernet checks. Now it is really done first when receiving a packet at an
interface.
Ref #2490
If the router has no gateway attribute for a domain (means that the router
itself is the gateway), and it gets an ARP request for a foreign IP, it shall
answer with its own IP.
Ref #2490
Do not use two times the RTT for the lifetime of links but use it as
it is configured to simplify the usage of the router. Internally, use
Microseconds/Duration type instead of plain integers.
Ref #2490
The nic_dump uses a wrapper for all supported protocols that
takes a packet and a verbosity configuration. The wrapper object can
than be used as argument for a Genode log function and prints the
packet's contents according to the given configuration. The
configuration is a distinct class to enable the reuse of one instance
for different packets.
There are currently 4 possible configurations for each protocol:
* NONE (no output for this protocol)
* SHORT (only the protocol name)
* COMPACT (the most important information densely packed)
* COMPREHENSIVE (all header information of this protocol)
Ref #2490
Provide utilities for appending new options to an existing DHCP packet
and a utility for finding existing options that returns a typed option
object. Remove old version that return untyped options.
