When buiding the sculpt image, the sculpt.run script used to integrate
the current version of the index of the 'depot_user' into the boot
image. At runtime, when the Sculpt partition is selected for "use" this
index - along with the 'pubkey' and 'download' files of the known
depot users - is written to the Sculpt partition.
This has the undesirable effect that a later version of the index
(published some time after the sculpt image was created) would always be
overwritten by the outdated index shipped with the boot image.
The built-in default index was actually a stop-gap solution needed
during the development of Sculpt CE, introduced when the downloading of
index files was not yet supported. Now, with the working download
mechanism, it is no longer needed. Hence, this patch removes the default
index from the sculpt image.
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superseded by the interactive component addition feature of the '+'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
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.

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).
Fixes#3165
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.
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
After a certain number of tests, presumably some resource in core is exceeded
and loading the successive test fails. This quickfix looks out for the
characteristic Core error and then reboots to avoid that all successive tests
are marked as failed.
Since the timer and timeout handling is part of the base library (the
dynamic linker), it belongs to the base repository.
Besides moving the timer and its related infrastructure (alarm, timeout
libs, tests) to the base repository, this patch also moves the timer
from the 'drivers' subdirectory directly to 'src' and disamibuates the
timer's build locations for the various kernels. Otherwise the different
timer implementations could interfere with each other when using one
build directory with multiple kernels.
Note that this patch changes the include paths for the former os/timer,
os/alarm.h, os/duration.h, and os/timed_semaphore.h to base/.
Issue #3101
This patch improves the appearance of the leitzentrale by eliminating
the (hardly visible) decorations from the GUI and graph views, and by
animating the motion of the graph position. The latter is meant to
remove the stuttering effect when the graph's size changes (and
re-centered).
Adds an config attribute to the Depot Autopilot component:
:<config repeat>:
Can be one of
"false" - process the given test list only once,
"until_forever" - endlessly repeat processing the given test list,
"until_failed" - repeat processing the given test list until it fails.
Adds an environment variable to the Depot Autopilot Run script:
:TEST_REPEAT:
Same as the <config repeat> attribute of the Depot Autopilot.
This is useful when having to debug very sporadic errors during one test
or a series of tests.
This ensures that the depot_autopilot.run script, when exiting, always prints
a result overview of the so far available test results, except the Depot
Autopilot component has managed to print the result overview up to this point.
Unequal numbers of double quotes let the XML parser of init fail,
therefore replace all double quotes when transfering previous
results after a reboot.
Ref #3027
The number of tests to run is the number of test package-archives minus the
the those that are skipped for the given platform. The number is printed
directly after checking if the given platform is supported by the run script.
It helps the surrounding test infrastructure to ensure that, for instance, a
result graph always reflects the same total number of tests, even though there
is a sporadic problem with booting the platform.
The test for python requires x86 to be built. Therefore, there is no test
binary available when trying to execute that test on ARM with depot_autopilot.
The commented-out <start> nodes are prone to become inconsistent with
the launchers. Hence, this patch removes them. Start nodes should better
be added by the '+' menu, at least initially.
Furthermore, the patch directs requests for the vfs.lib.so ROM to core's
ROM service to reduce the impact of low-level ABI changes (i.e., the
packet-stream layout) on existing vfs/libc-based packages.
The recall file system is a place where components can remember state.
E.g., to allow the window layouter to recall the window layout of the
previous session.
The pthread API is considered a standard feature of libc so better to
simply merge it with the libc. Pthreads are in fact already a part of
the libc in the form of weak symbols. This merger is also a prerequisite
for better integrating pthreads with the libc I/O task.
Fix#3054
Print a line like "succeeded: 35 failed: 11 skipped: 2" below the list of test
results. Adds further attributes to <previous-results> to communicate also the
previous statistics.
This commit moves the window layouter and window decorator into
dedicated packages that can now be combined with the "wm" server at
runtime and restarted/reconfigured/swapped-out independently.
To use the window manager, one must start the 'wm', 'window_layouter',
and one of the 'motif_decorator' or 'themed_decorator' subsystems.
Fixes#3024
When doing the libc_getenv test on autopilot+foc+x86 and one of the
subsequent tests crashes the system so it gets rebooted by the run
script, the system doesn't come up again. It gets stuck after core
initialization.
Issue #3027
This commit replaces the former floating_window_layouter with a new
window_layouter component that supports the subdivision of screen space
into columns and rows, the concept of layers, and the principle ability
to store window layout information across reboots. The latter is
accomplished by reflecting the component's internal state as a 'rules'
report to the outside.
Fixes#3031
This component allows access to Terminal sessions via interactive SSH
sessions. Please read _repos/gems/src/server/ssh_terminal/README_ for
more detailed information.
Fixes#3014.
On some machines, both the AHCI and NVMe drivers are started within the
[drivers -> dynamic] subsystem. This ultimately exhausted the RAM quota
of this subsystem.
Issue #2987
This patch introduces the distinction of the manually managed
config/deploy from the managed config/managed/deploy. The latter
incorporates interactive changes of the system by the user. There are
two user interactions supported.
First, by clicking on the '+' button at the top-left of the runtime
view, the user can select a component to launch. All launchers at
config/launcher/ are listed in the popup menu. Each launcher can be
lauched only once. While running, is not available in the popup
menu.
Second, when selecting a node that corresponds to a start node in
config/deploy or that was interactively launched, the detailed view
shows a 'remove' button, which can be used to exclude the component
from the deployment.
The result of the interactive manipulation is always available at
config/managed/deploy. Hence, the current situation can be made
persistent by using it as config/deploy.
Fixes#2986
This patch enables the user to click on a component in the runtime view
to reveal more information such as the used/assigned RAM/caps and
secondary dependencies.
This patch adds a graph of the current runtime state to the
leitzentrale. The topology of the graph depends on the first routing
rule of each component. For this reason, the patch re-orders routing
policies to make the most important route the first in the list.
The user can switch between the runtime view and the inspect window
by clicking on the corresponding menu dialogs. E.g., a click on the
storage dialog reveals the inspect window.
The most important route of each launcher is at the top of routes and
will be used to layout the graph topology of the runtime view.
By caching the state reports generated by the runtime init, the sculpt
manager becomes able to quickly check for the presence of components. So
we can apply routing-dependency checks not only prior starting
components but also while components are running.
