On Genode/Fiasco.OC, when an unresolved page fault occurs, only the IP and
SP registers are valid in the thread state read by GDB monitor. This was
not taken into account so far and the other (possibly outdated) register
values got reported to the client, too.
With this patch, only IP and SP get reported to the client in the page
fault case.
Fixes#1063.
For a main thread a thread object is created by the CRT0 before _main gets
called so that _main can already run in a generic environment that, e.g.,
catches stack overflows as a page-fault instead of corrupting the BSS.
Additionally dynamic programs have only one CRT0 - the one of the LDSO -
which does the initialization for both LDSO and program.
ref #989
Normally for intptr_t the printf format PRIiPTR should be used. As Genode
printf doens't support this format we cast it to long int (intptr_t is int
for 32 bit and long int for 64 bit).
ref #989
- 'kill()' syscall added
- 'wait()' gets unblocked when a signal occurs
- syscalls can get called from a signal handler without corrupting the 'sysio' object
- the child's exit status gets correctly reported to 'wait()'
- SIGCHLD gets ignored by default
- pending signals survive 'execve()'
Fixes#1035.
Access to a block session is provided by using the block file system.
By specifying the label, each block session request can be routed to
the proper block session provider:
! <fstab>
! ...
! <dir name="dev">
! <block name="blkdev0" label="block_session_0" />
! </dir>
! ...
! </fstab>
In addition to this file system, support for the DIOCGMEDIASIZE ioctl
request was added. This request is used by FreeBSD and therefore our
libc to query the size of the block device in bytes.
Fixes#1010.
File systems using the File_system_session interface can now be
synchronized by using this syscall. This is needed for file system
that maintain an internal cache, which should be flushed.
Fixes#1008.
This patch implements the POSIX signal functionality needed to interrupt a
running Noux GDB by pressing 'Ctrl-C'.
It allows to register a signal handler for the 'SIGINT' signal, which
gets executed after 'Ctrl-C' is received from the terminal. With the
current state of the implementation, the signal handler only gets executed
when the Noux application calls a 'read()', 'write()', 'ftruncate()' or
'select()' syscall.
Fixes#923.
Since the number of the fds in the select call is not necassarily equal
to the number of fds SYSCALL_SELECT returns we have to reset the number
of fds given as argument to select().
This keeps OpenSSH from reading from a non-ready socket.
Fixes#494.
The previous implementation disregards the fact that we actually have
to use libc's plugin mechanism if we play with fds. So in the end the
libc did not know to which plugin the fd belonged.
Fixes#493.
Implies support for the ARMv6 architecture through 'base-hw'.
Get rid of 'base/include/drivers' expect of 'base/include/drivers/uart'.
Merge with the support for trustzone on VEA9X4 that came from
Stefan Kalkowski.
Leave board drivers in 'base/include/platform'.
Rework structure of the other drivers that were moved to
'base_hw/src/core' and those that came with the trustzone support.
Beautify further stuff in 'base_hw'.
Test 'nested_init' with 'hw_imx31' (hardware) and 'hw_panda_a2' (hardware),
'demo' and 'signal' with 'hw_pbxa9' (qemu) and 'hw_vea9x4'
(hardware, no trustzone), and 'vmm' with 'hw_vea9x4'
(hardware, with trustzone).
Since FD_ZERO() resets a whole fd_set (which is 128 bytes) using it to
reset dst_fds will override otherwise used memory if the memory was
allocated dynamically and is less than sizeof (fd_set). So instead of
using this macro we reset the fd_set manually.
There are certain programs that need gettimeofday(), e.g.
network-related tools like ping(1) etc. but also filesystem-related
programs like find(1) etc. and of course time-related programs like
date(1).
As there is currently no interface in Genode for actually using clock
devices like RTC on x86 (though there is a driver for it) we "abuse"
the timeout_scheduler thread to at least provide flow-of-time.
Noux: add clock_gettime() implementation
For now, only CLOCK_SECOND is supported.
Noux: add utimes() dummy
Fixes#401
The 'find' program can abort if the 'gettimeofday()' function returns -1,
which it currently does. With this patch the 'gettimeofday()' returns a
dummy time instead to prevent such a termination.
Fixes#353.
With this patch environment variables always get stored as zero-separated
strings in buffers of type 'Sysio::Env'. This fixes the problem that
environment variables with non-alphanumeric characters did not get set
correctly in child processes.
Fixes#340.
Programs use the errno value to check which error exactly occured.
It is mandatory for non-blocking I/O, e.g. connect() gets the current
state of the connection by looking at the returned errno values.
Fixes#337.
There are certain programs which need the information that is stored in
'struct passwd'. This commit introduces configurable user information
support to NOUX.
One can set the user information via <user> in NOUX config:
! <config>
! <user name="baron" uid="1" gid="1">
! <shell name="/bin/bash" />
! <home name="/home" />
! </user>
! [...]
! </config>
When <user> is not specified default values are used. Currently these
are 'root', 0, 0, '/bin/bash', '/'.
Note: this is just a single user implementation because each Noux instance
has only one user or rather one identity and there will be no complete
multi-user support in Noux. If you need different users, just start new
Noux instances for each of them.
Previously there was not actual timeout handling. If a select() call
set an timeout it would be set to zero instead and was always handled
as blocking i/o. While this works fine for file descriptors which
will be triggerd externally (for example vim through terminal i/o) it
does not work at all for socket descriptors and network operations in
general.
So this commit introduces proper timeout handling and changes the
behaviour of SYSCALL_SELECT so that it now returns more than just
one descriptor at a time.
noux/minimal and noux/net now depend on thread and alarm libraries.
In the current form, only PROT_READ is supported. This case is emulated
by copying the file content into new allocated backing store. Even
though the performance benefits of mmap-using code will not be
preserved, code that relies on mmap can be executed via the libc_noux
or libc_fs plugins, i.e. lightttpd.
