When init destroys a child server with an open session, the client must
be updated as it will otherwise store a pointer to a no-more existing
service object which will be dereferenced when the child client is
destroyed.
Fixes#1912
This commit introduces the new `Component` interface in the form of the
headers base/component.h and base/entrypoint.h. The os/server.h API
has become merely a compatibilty wrapper and will eventually be removed.
The same holds true for os/signal_rpc_dispatcher.h. The mechanism has
moved to base/signal.h and is now called 'Signal_handler'.
Since the patch shuffles headers around, please do a 'make clean' in the
build directory.
Issue #1832
Prevents the annoying warning about
WARNING: Image format was not specified for 'bin/test.img' and probing guessed raw.
Automatically detecting the format is dangerous for raw images, write operations on block 0 will be restricted.
Specify the 'raw' format explicitly to remove the restrictions.
If attached ROM dataspaces are not valid after update(), code that uses
these ROMs produces
void Genode::Volatile_object< <template-parameter-1-1> >::_check_constructed() const [with MT = Genode::Attached_dataspace]: Deref_unconstructed_object
In scenarios where the config ROM is loaded from a report ROM or any
other non-static ROM, config might try to access an invalid dataspace
capability. This patch prevents the component from aborting in this
case.
Fixes#1914
This patch removes the support for executing subsystems of CLI monitor
within the GDB monitor. There are multiple reasons: First, the feature
remained unused for multiple years. Second, it relied on the base/elf.h
header to determine whether the started binary is dynamically or
statically linked. This header, however, is going to be removed from the
Genode API. Third, the feature will eventually break with the upcoming
changes of how components are bootstrapped. Finally, there is the plan
to turn CLI monitor into a sole front end of a dynamically configurable
init component. Once we pursue this plan, we'd need to reconsider the
GDB support anyway.
Issue #1832
In addition to now using the framework the playback is triggered by a
timer. For now it is a periodic timer that triggers every 11 ms which
is roughly the current Audio:out period (*).
The driver now also behaves like the other BSD Audio_out driver, i.e,
it always advances the play pointer. That is vital for the Audio_out
stack above the driver to work properly (e.g. the mixer).
(*) It stands to reason if it would be better to use the async ALSA
timer interface instead of using the Timer session.
Fixes#1892.
This driver uses the Usb session interface and provides a Block session
to its client. See _repos/os/src/drivers/usb_block/README' for more
information.
Fixes#1885.
Instead of only hardcoding "hw" read 'alsa_device' attribute from the
config node to determine the proper playback device. The default value
is still "hw" in case the attribute is not present.
Fixes#1884.
The driver might end up in an endless loop on systems that do not
contain an i8042 controller when probing the AUX interface. This
leads to busy looping and in the end to not annoucing the Input
service. Components that wait for the announcement of the service
will therefore hang as well.
Normally a service gets announced only if it is usable but in this
case this is inconvient because it renders all scenarios that use
the input_merger non working on x86 systems that only provide USB
input and do not have PS/2 at all.
Ideally, the PS/2 driver should only be started if the system needs it.
That is currently not feasible and for the time being we post-pone the
inevitable and back down after several unsucessful attempts to read
from the AUX interface while initializing the driver.
Fixes#1871.
The 'usb_report_filter' component takes the devices report from the
USB driver and generates a new devices report after checking each
entry against its device white-list. Before emitting the new report
it changes the configuration of the USB driver to contain the
required policy entries.
See 'repos/os/src/app/usb_report_filter/README' for more details.

Now, the right PCI bus:device:function (BDF) is reported to the kernel
during assign_pci syscall - beforehand it was ever 0:0.0. The BDF is
needed to lookup the correct DMAR unit the kernel has to configure. This
was revealed as the DMAR unit for Intel graphics on x201 is not the same
as for all other PCI devices we have drivers for on this platform.
Fixes#1848
Because a check for the TEST_WRITE configuration was missing as condition for a
packet submit, the test caused unwanted write access to the device.

This patch adds diagnostic messages during the label-policy application,
if no policy for the session label was found or if the domain configured
in the policy node does not exist.
From our observations we can tell that the error should not exceed 4%.
However, there is no reasonable explanation by now why the test results
are less stable on these platforms. We have tried several things that
did not lead to an explanation or improvement:
* changing the timing parameters of the scheduler
* switching off SMP
* double-checking the speed of userland and kernel timers

The test threads previously used a stack size independent from the machine

Some clients might want to fiddle with the clients play position
(e.g. the mixer) within 'Audio_out::start()' and we might reset
it to an old value if we do it afterwards.
Fixes#1796.
Since all Audio_out server components loop over the packet stream
queue it is save to reset the tail position to one after the play
position. We have to do this because we do not know exactly when
the play position changes (i.e. the driver has processed the packet)
and we might end up with a tail position before the current play
position.
Issue #1796.
Instead of bailing out if the channel list is incorrect check config
node attributes and default settings first.
Being there also fix flawed LOG messages.
Fixes#1794.
This patch unifies the mechanism of selecting server-side policies and
taking session-routing decisions based on session labels. In both cases,
XML nodes are scored against session labels. The score depends on the
XML attributes 'label' (exact match), 'label_prefix', and
'label_suffix'.

* Provide paravirtualized block API for accessing the second partition
of the block device that is provided by the ESDHC driver.
* Provide paravirtualized serial API for sending log-output over Genodes
serial port.
* Use the latest Linux suggested in the USB Armory Wiki [1] when on USB Armory
while still using the older vendor Linux when on i.MX53 QSB. I.e.,
provide a device tree through RAM and a rootfs through the paravirtualized
block device when on USB Armory while providing ATAGs and Initrd when on
i.MX53 QSB.
* Switch on the LED on the USB Armory when the VMM catches a VM-exception
and switch it off again when as soon as the exception is handled. This
merely show-cases the ability to instrument the LED for such purposes. In an
ideal world, the LED is switched on as long as we're on the "Secure Side"
and switched off as long as we're not.

Ref #1497
The manual termination of multi-block writes via "Stop Transmission" commands
seems to leave the card in a busy state sometimes. This causes errors on
subsequent commands. Thus, we have to synchronize manually with the
card-internal state via "Send State" commands. Additionally, the method
for issuing the manual "Stop Transmission" commands was refined.
Ref #1497
We have to issue a data synchronization barrier after writing a ADMA2
table to ensure that the corresponding write commands were actually
executed before issuing the SD command.
Ref #1497
On i.MX53 QSB, a "Send Op Cond" command during the driver initialization
returns another response value than on the USB Armory. As the check for
this response seems to have no relevance for the driver functionality (Linux
reads the value from MMIO but I can't find a place in the source code where
it is used), we simply remove it.

Previously, it was not necessary to acknowledge an IRQ initially before using
it. However, since the IRQ framework changed lately it is. Adapt to this.

Notify client initially to enforce a client-side ROM update. Otherwise,
a server-side ROM update between session creation and signal-handler

Issue #1788
This patch changes the decorator to always apply stacking-order changes
immediately instead of deferring the re-stacking of the nitpicker views
to the next call of 'update_nitpicker_views'. The deferred application
did not always work when more then one windows changed their stacking
position at once because the cached '_neighbor' values interfered with
each other.
The eager re-stacking should not have negative effects on the user
experience because, in contrast to re-positioning, re-stacking a rare
operation.
This change makes it possible to reuse the generic window decorator
classes in include/decorator/ for decorators of a different structure.
E.g., instead of painting decorations on a single nitpicker session,
each window may paint its decorations into additional window-specific
nitpicker sessions.
In the event where a nitpicker session's quota was depleted by the
allocation of view handles, nitpicker would abort. The patch prevents
the abort by reflecting this condition as an Out_of_metadata exception
to the client. This way, the client can upgrade its session as needed.
The problem was triggered by running the decorator_stress test (changed
to generate 40 windows) with the themed_decorator.
This patch addresses the corner case that the specified neighbor view
is the first view of the view stack. If this is the case when inserting
the view in front of the neighbor (behind == false), the target position
within the view stack must be a null pointer, not the first view.
Because the conditions have become rather complicated, both cases
of 'behind' are handled separately now.
The notion of a channel is shared by the mixer backend as well as the
frontend. To make dealing with reports between those easier move the
Channel definition to a global header.
Issue #1770.
This patch ensures that focus changes performed via the Session::focus
call are made effective the next time, the user is idle. Previously,
focus changes during drag operations were simply discarded.
strip_last_element at Path removes everything after the trailing slash,
which causes lookup failures at the VFS server when opening directories.

Throw Invalid_name, No_space, and Out_of_node_handles where appropriate.
Catch the new range of errors thrown by at the VFS.
Catch Out_of_node_handles at the VFS, but print a message and re-throw.

This patch introduces a shortcut for conditional session routes of the
form '<if-arg key="label" value="..."/>'. With this change, the label
can be directly specified as 'label' attribute of an '<any-service>' or
a '<service>' node. The '<if-arg>' mechanism was not documented anyway
and I hope to be able to ultimately remove it.
Currently, when a signal arrives in the main thread, the signal dispatcher is
retrieved and called from the main thread, the dispatcher uses a proxy object
that in turn sends an RPC to the entry point. This becomes a problem when the
entry point destroys the dispatcher object, before the dispatch function has
been called by the main thread. Therefore, the main thread should simply send an
RPC to the entry point upon signal arrival and the dispatching should be handled
solely by the entry point.

This patch improves the decorator in two ways. First, it enables the
assignment of window colors depending on the window labels. This
configuration can be changed dynamically. Second, it adds the handling
of window controls for closing, maximizing, minimizing windows.
Issue #1689Fixes#1688
This patch supplements the existing focus reports with the new attribute
'active', which indicates recent user activity when set to "yes". This
information is consumed by the clipboard to dynamically adjust its
information-flow policy depending on the user activity.
Issue #1712
This patch moves the formerly internal classes of the report-ROM service
to the public location os/include/report_rom/ so that they can be reused
by other components such as the upcoming clipboard.
This overload of the value member eases the retrieval of Genode::String
objects from XML attributes. So we won't need to deal with C-style
character buffers anymore.
The utilities in os/session_policy.h used to be tailored for the
matching of session arguments against a server-side policy
configuration. However, the policy-matching part is useful in other
situations, too. This patch removes the tight coupling with the
session-argument parsing (via Arg_string) and the hard-wired use of
'Genode::config()'.
To make the utilities more versatile, the 'Session_label' has become a
'Genode::String' (at the time when we originally introduced the
'Session_label', there was no 'Genode::String'). The parsing of the
session arguments happens in the constructor of this special 'String'.
The constructor of 'Session_policy' now takes a 'Genode::String' as
argument. So it can be used with the 'Session_label' but also with other
'String' types. Furthermore, the implicit use of 'Genode::config()' can
be overridden by explicitly specifying the config node as an argument.
Until now, the CLI monitor and the laucher allowed the user to explitly
kill subsystems but both used to ignore gracefully exiting subsystems.
It was the user's job to remove the remains of those subsystems. The
patch takes the burden of manually killing exited subsystems from the
user.
Fixes#1685
Destroying an object within the scope of a lambda/functor executed
in the object pool's apply function leads potentially to memory corruption.
Within the scope the corresponding object is locked and unlocked when
leaving the scope. Therefore, it is illegal to free the object's memory meanwhile.
This commit eliminates several places in core that destroyed wrongly in
the object pool's scope.

* Make core's Mapped_mem_allocator a friend class of Synced_range_allocator

Fix#1697
The intention of Packet_ref was to allow clients to place opaque
references into the packet descriptor itself, which could be observed on
packet completion. Currently no component in our sources uses this
feature and beyond that it is questionable if it should be used at all:
If the server tampers with the ref the client may easily be confused
into observing an incorrect or invalid context. It seems better to
remove the opaque context from the descriptor and leave the actual
implementation to the client and its needs.
This patch extends the configuration concept of init with an additional
sub node for the <start> node:
<start name="noux">
<exit propagate="yes"/>
...
</start>
If the 'propagate' attribute is set to "yes", the exit of the respective
child will appear to init's parent as the exit of the entire init
subsystem.
Fixes#1686
Instead of holding SPEC-variable dependent files and directories inline
within the repository structure, move them into 'spec' subdirectories
at the corresponding levels, e.g.:
repos/base/include/spec
repos/base/mk/spec
repos/base/lib/mk/spec
repos/base/src/core/spec
...
Moreover, this commit removes the 'platform' directories. That term was
used in an overloaded sense. All SPEC-relative 'platform' directories are
now named 'spec'. Other files, like for instance those related to the
kernel/architecture specific startup library, where moved from 'platform'
directories to explicit, more meaningful places like e.g.: 'src/lib/startup'.

This scripts starts two Audio_out session clients. These clients
access the soundcard via the mixer. The first client simply streams
a sample file in a loop while the second client generates a click
sound when any key is pressed.
Issue #1666.
Sometimes, the play position in stream is behind the out stream, mostly
because of timing issue. In this case, the mixer will produce invalid
packets which in return will lead to looping on an invalid packet in
the audio_drv.
Issue #1666.
For some platforms (at least hw_zynq on Qemu), the measured time of the
periodic timeout test exceeded the maximum that was previously
calculated without any tolerance. Most likely, this is not a malfunction
of the test subject as the error is pretty small and, of course,
measuring the time produces overhead itself. Introducing a tolerance of
only 0.1% fixes the problem.
Fixes#1599
Instead of returning pointers to locked objects via a lookup function,
the new object pool implementation restricts object access to

If a requested report already exists the request is denied with
Invalid_args.
Further, I dusted the report_rom test and added it to the
autopilot list.
When a stream was stopped it may still contain valid packets that
will be played automatically when the stream is started again. The
invalidate_all() method may be called after stopping the stream to
prevent this.
Issue #1647.
The alarm library failed to handle the case properly where an already
scheduled alarm gets rescheduled before it triggered. Even though the
attempt to reschedule the alarm (twice insertion into alarm queue) was
detected, this condition resulted in the mere modification of the
alarm's parameters while keeping the alarm's queue position unchanged.
This, in turn, may violate the invariant that all enqueued alarm objects
are strictly ordered by their deadlines. The patch handles the case by
dequeuing the alarm object before reinserting it into the queue at the
right position.
Fixes#1646
