This patch let the VFS server reflect the session policy via the
writeable bit in directory entries instead of merely forwarding the bit
from the respective VFS plugin. This way, all files originating from a
read-only file-system session automatically appear in directory listings
as read-only files.

This is an intermediate fix to handle sends to sockets shut down by the
peer already. A final fix in the libc would add support for the
MSG_NOSIGNAL send flag, generate SIGPIPE, and return the expected EINTR.
Then this patch is no longer required.
This commit also drops the obsolete patch for missing
sysconf(_SC_NPROCESSORS_ONLN), which is now part of libc.
The VFS server as reworked in issue #3547 responds to such an attempt
with a failure as acknowledgement, triggering the client-side error
"Error: packet operation=2 failed" at noux.
This patch prevents the driver from translating Insufficient_ram_quota
and Insufficient_cap_quota exceptions to Service_denied exceptions at
session-creation time. This enables the client to respond to such a
condition by retrying the session creation with increased session quota.
Add a new plugin for creating pipes between pairs of VFS handles. It is
intended to replace the libc_pipe plugin, one of the last remaining libc
plugins.
In contrast to the libc_pipe plugin, this plugin defers cross-handle
notification until I/O signal handling rather than block and unblock
readers using a semaphore. This is a performance regression in the case
of multiple threads blocking on a pipe, but shall be an intermediate
mechanism pending renovations within the libc VFS and threading layers.
As a side effect, threads blocked on a pipe might not be resumed until
the main thread suspends and dispatches I/O signals.
The "test-libc_pipe" test has been adjusted to use the VFS pipe plugin
and tests both local pipes and pipes hosted remotely in the VFS server.

Fix#2303
This patch reworks the VFS server to become easier to understand.
- The packet-stream handling is hidden from the node types.
- Introduced the notion of a "job" as an abstraction from the raw packet
stream.
- The processing of requests is split into three phases:
(1) accepting new jobs,
(2) the execution of jobs, and
(3) the delivery of acknowledgements.
- There is no longer a global fifo of pending nodes. Instead, each
session has a fifo of "active" nodes, which are nodes that wait
for the completion of jobs.
- The Io_node type no longer uses virtual functions as hooks for
the derrived classes. Instead, it provides a number of utility
functions.
- The control flow of the 'Io_progress_handler' is now the same as
for the session-local packet-stream handler.
- Removed dependency from 'file_system/node.h', which is a relic
from the ram_fs.
While reworking the code, the following semantic changes were made
additionally.
- The handling of SEEK_TAIL no longer overwrites the file content at the
end of the file.
- Removed diagnostic message at session-creation time.
- Write loop for continuous files

Issue #2303
This patch reduces the debug noise for the prominent case of executing
bash with coreutils. Without it, the forked process will always ask for
more RAM immediately when starting up.
This change allows for the conversion of directory entries in place
(i.e., in the VFS server) and anticipates the potential future merge of
both types into one.
Issue #3547
This patch improves the libc's write operation to iterate on partial
writes to continuous files until the original write count is reached.
The split of large write operations into small partial writes as
dictated by the VFS infrastructure (e.g., constained by I/O buffer
sizes) becomes invisible to the libc-using application.

This patch adds the ability to call 'kill' with the own PID to trigger
the execution of the handler of the specified POSIX signal. This is used
by 'bash', e.g., when cancelling the input of a command via control-c.
Related to issue #3546
This patch equips the VFS terminal file system with the ability to
detect user interrupts in the incoming data stream, and propagate this
information via the new pseudo file '.terminal/interrupts'. Each time,
the user presses control-c in the terminal, the value stored in this
pseudo file is increased. Thereby, a VFS client can watch this file to
get notified about the occurrences of user interrupts.
Fixes#3546
The scratch buffer is now allocated from the heap and is shared
between the test as they are executed in a serial fashion. This
change saves memory as the test are constructed at start-up.
Fixes#3539.
This patch adds support for watch notifications for the
'Readonly_value_file_system', which is often used by VFS plugins to
implement pseudo files. It thereby enables VFS clients to respond to
VFS-plugin events (think of terminal resize) dynamically.

Fixes#3530
Uplink labels were stored in the uplink objects as reference. As uplink objects
may be re-used on re-configuration to avoid unnecessary closing and re-opening
of NIC sessions, the label reference could get invalid as the object that
stored the label content didn't get re-used. Thus, the label is now copied to
the uplink object.
Fixes#3529
This adds two new boolean attributes to the <report> tag of the NIC router
configuration 'link_state' and 'link_state_triggers'. The former decides
whether to report the link state of each NIC interface (downlink, uplinks) at
the NIC router. The other decides whether to trigger reporting each time the
link state of an interface changes.
Fixes#3527
If a MAC address was once allocated for a downlink and during the further
creation of the downlink an exception caused the creation to be aborted, the
NIC router didn't free the MAC address again.
Ref #3525
The handling of exceptions during session creation implies freeing and
detaching the RAM DS behind the session env and session component. But this
was done using the session env located in the same RAM DS, which must
lead to problems. Now, the session env from the RAM DS is copied to the stack
and the operations are done on this temporary instance instead.
Ref #3525
When the construction of a member of Packet_stream_*::Rpc_object after
the _cap member threw an exception, the object was not dissolved from
the entrypoint although the Rpc_object vanished at this point. This was
because the call to 'manage()' happened in the initializer list (for the
_cap member instantiation). The destruction of the _cap member then did
not dissolve the object.
This first fix moves the call to 'manage()' into the constructor body
after the instantiation of all other members. A more sophisticated fix
would use some kind of 'Managed_object' life-time guard that manages an
object on construction and dissolves on destruction.
Ref #3525
When re-configuring a domain from using a static IP config to using a dynamic
IP config, attached interfaces didn't react with doing DHCP discover. This bug
is fixed now and the nic_router_flood test was adapted in a way that it tests
the described behavior.
Fix#3518
This patch introduces a new scheme of handling ioctl operations that
maps ioctls to pseudo-file accesses, similar to how the libc maps socket
calls to socket-fs operations.
A device file can be accompanied with a (hidden) directory that is named
after the device file and hosts pseudo files for triggering the various
device operations. For example, for accessing a terminal, the directory
structure looks like this:
/dev/terminal
/dev/.terminal/info
The 'info' file contains device information in XML format. The type of
the XML node corresponds to the device type. E.g., If the libc receives
a 'TIOCGWINSZ' ioctl for /dev/terminal, it reads the content of
/dev/.terminal/info to obtain the terminal-size information. In this
case, the 'info' file looks as follows:
<terminal rows="25" columns="80/>
Following this scheme, VFS plugins can support ioctl operations by
providing an ioctl directory in addition to the actual device file.
Internally, the mechanism uses the 'os/vfs.h' API to access pseudo
files. Hence, we need to propagate the Vfs::Env to 'vfs_plugin.cc' to
create an instance of a 'Directory' for the root for the VFS.
Issue #3519
The run script used to be the only user of the fatfs_fs server, which

Nowadays, we use standard command-line tools like vim to edit init
configurations dynamically, which alleviates the need for a custom CLI.
The CLI-monitor component was too limited for use cases like Sculpt
anyway.
The patch also removes the ancient (and untested for long time)
terminal_mux.run script, which used to be the only remaining user of the
CLI monitor.
Issue #3512
This driver manually checks if the RAM quota is big enough for the
Lan9118 nic session component. The problem is Root_component::_create
from which Root_component::_create_session gets called does already
check this. No need to account for it twice.
Fixes#3514
This patch extends the 'File_system::Status',
'File_system::Directory_entry', and the related 'Vfs' types with
the following additional information:
- Distinction between continuous and transactional files (Node_type)
(issue #3507)
- Readable, writeable, and executable attributes (Node_rwx),
replacing the former 'mode' bits
(issue #3030)
The types 'Node_rwx', 'Node_type' are defined twice,
once for the VFS (vfs/types.h) and once for the 'File_system'
session (file_system_session/file_system_session.h).
Similarly, there is a direct correspondance between
'Vfs::Directory_service::Dirent' and 'File_system::Directory_entry'.
This duplication of types follows the existing pattern of keeping the
VFS and file-system session independent from each other.
Moving the handling into the input-session clients enables more
sophisticated implementations (like Qt5) to apply key-symbol based
handling of those modifiers like correct CTRL-A with QWERTY and AZERTY
layouts and distinction of CTRL-J and Return.

Fixes#3495
With the added modification-time support in the libc, the extract tool
requires a timer session, which is not plausible for the purpose of the
program.
This behavior stems from the fact that the libc implicitly writes the
mtime when closing a written file. For this update, it implicitly calls
'clock_gettime', which in turn initializes the timer subsystem within
the libc (creating a timer session).
For the extract tool, the implicitly updated mtime is useless because
the extract tool overwrites this modification time with the mtime stored
in the archive anyway. However, the dependency from a timer service
remains.
This patch explicitly disables the libc's implicit updating of the
file-modification when closing a written file.
Issue #1784
By specifying <libc update_mtime="no"...>, the modification-time update
on VFS-sync operations (as issued whenever a written file is closed)
can explicitly be disabled.

... and set initial time by using RTC session.
Up to now Noux used a monotic clock whose initial start value always
was '0' (which correlates to the start of the UNIX epoch) to provide
a notion of time. In addition it is now possible to use the RTC
session to set the initial value for use cases where having a proper
real-world time matters.
To use the RTC session the 'rtc' attribute of the '<config>' node
must be set to 'yes'. Thereby the session becomes a mandatory
dependency as Noux will not start without it.

This patch removes ldso's builtin policy of removing any path elements
prepending the ROM module name. Instead, the ROM name is used as is.
This clears the way to access different ROM modules that share the same

/bin/bash vs. /usr/local/bin/bash).
Issue #3500
This patch replaces the naive dup2 implementation (that merely
duplicated the context pointer) by the replication of the original
FD state by re-opening the same file with the same flags and seek
position. This prevents a potential double release of the VFS handle
(the FD context). It also implements 'dup'.
