Users of a File_system_session might want to force a file system
to flush or rather to synchronize its internal cache. A concret
default implementation is provided because not all file systems
maintain an internal cache and are not required to synchronize
caches.
Fixes#1007.
Make 'set_program_var' accessible outside of 'rtld.c'. Also, compile
dynamically linked programs with the '-fPIC' option. Doing not so,
yields to program-global symbols being put in the '.symtab' section
(which can be stripped) only. In order to get access to global
variables from the dynamic linker, the symbols need to reside within
the '.dynsym' section additionally. Hence the '-fPIC'.
ref #989fix#1002
* Increase entrypoint stack size for part_blk server,
since it crashes on 64 bit
* Consider packet alignment in bulk buffer size calculation of test-blk-cli
* allow to handle a maximum of packets in parallel
that fits free slots in the ack queue
* stop processing packets, when the driver can't handle
more requests in parallel, and resume packet handling,
when the driver is ready again
Instead of using an additional thread in each Session_component of a
block server, which uses the generic block component and driver classes,
replace it with signal dispatchers.
Ref #113
To support components, which implement the block session's server side
rpc object, and which doesn't write data to their device backend immediately,
an additional synchronization call is needed. Thereby, clients like for
instance a file system can tell these components, when a synchronization is
required.
Ref #113
The platform driver is used to access the features provided by the
Videocore mboxes, i.e., power configuration and framebuffer setup. The
framebuffer driver uses the platform interface to setup a screen mode of
1024x768.
This patch enables the recursive startup of launchpad instances, which
was not possible since the recent removal of launchpad's built-in
default configuration.
