Fiasco.OC: introduce Cap_index (fixes #149, #112)
This commit introduces a Cap_index class for Fiasco.OC's capabilities.
A Cap_index is a combination of the global capability id, that is used by Genode
to correctly identify a kernel-object, and a corresponding entry in a
protection-domain's (kernel-)capability-space. The cap-indices are non-copyable,
unique objects, that are held in a Cap_map. The Cap_map is used to re-find
capabilities already present in the protection-domain, when a capability is
received via IPC. The retrieval of capabilities effectively fixes issue #112,
meaning the waste of capability-space entries.
Because Cap_index objects are non-copyable (their address indicates the position
in the capability-space of the pd), they are inappropriate to use as
Native_capability. Therefore, Native_capability is implemented as a reference
to Cap_index objects. This design seems to be a good pre-condition to implement
smart-pointers for entries in the capability-space, and thereby closing existing
leaks (please refer to issue #32).
Cap_index, Cap_map, and the allocator for Cap_index objects are designed in a way,
that it should be relatively easy to apply the same concept to NOVA also. By now,
these classes are located in the `base-foc` repository, but they intentionally
contain no Fiasco.OC specific elements.
The previously explained changes had extensive impact on the whole Fiasco.OC
platform implementation, due to various dependencies. The following things had to
be changed:
* The Thread object's startup and destruction routine is re-arranged, to
enable another thread (that calls the Thread destructor) gaining the
capability id of the thread's gate to remove it from the Cap_map, the
thread's UTCB had to be made available to the caller, because there
is the current location of that id. After having the UTCB available
in the Thread object for that reason, the whole thread bootstrapping
could be simplified.
* In the course of changing the Native_capability's semantic, a new Cap_mapping
class was introduced in core, that facilitates the establishment and
destruction of capability mappings between core and it's client's, especially
mappings related to Platform_thread and Platform_task, that are relevant to
task and thread creation and destruction. Thereby, the destruction of
threads had to be reworked, which effectively removed a bug (issue #149)
where some threads weren't destroyed properly.
* In the quick fix for issue #112, something similar to the Cap_map was
introduced available in all processes. Moreover, some kind of a capability
map already existed in core, to handle cap-session request properly. The
introduction of the Cap_map unified both structures, so that the
cap-session component code in core had to be reworked too.
* The platform initialization code had to be changed sligthly due to the
changes in Native_capability
* The vcpu initialization in the L4Linux support library had to be adapted
according to the already mentioned changes in the Thread object's bootstrap
code.

Fiasco.OC: several capability ref-counter fixes.
This commit fixes several issues that were triggered e.g. by the
'noux_tool_chain' run-script (fix #208 in part). The following problems
are tackled:
* Don't reference count capability selectors within a task that are actually
controlled by core (all beneath 0x200000), because it's undecideable which
"version" of a capability selector we currently use, e.g. a thread gets
destroyed and a new one gets created immediately some other thread might
have a Native_capability pointing to the already destroyed thread's gate
capability-slot, that is now a new valid one (the one of the new thread)
* In core we cannot invalidate and remove a capability from the so called
Cap_map before each reference to it is destroyed, so don't do this in
Cap_session_component::free, but only reference-decrement within there,
the actual removal can only be done in Cap_map::remove. Because core also
has to invalidate a capability to be removed in all protection-domains
we have to implement a core specific Cap_map::remove method
* When a capability gets inserted into the Cap_map, and we detect an old
invalid entry with the dame id in the tree, don't just overmap that
invalid entry (as there exist remaining references to it), but just remove
it from the tree and allocate an new entry.
* Use the Cap_session_component interface to free a Pager_object when it
gets dissolved, as its also used for allocation

* In core we cannot invalidate and remove a capability from the so called
Cap_map before each reference to it is destroyed, so don't do this in
Cap_session_component::free, but only reference-decrement within there,
the actual removal can only be done in Cap_map::remove. Because core also
has to invalidate a capability to be removed in all protection-domains
we have to implement a core specific Cap_map::remove method
* When a capability gets inserted into the Cap_map, and we detect an old
invalid entry with the dame id in the tree, don't just overmap that
invalid entry (as there exist remaining references to it), but just remove
it from the tree and allocate an new entry.
* Use the Cap_session_component interface to free a Pager_object when it
gets dissolved, as its also used for allocation

Fiasco.OC: introduce Cap_index (fixes #149, #112)
This commit introduces a Cap_index class for Fiasco.OC's capabilities.
A Cap_index is a combination of the global capability id, that is used by Genode
to correctly identify a kernel-object, and a corresponding entry in a
protection-domain's (kernel-)capability-space. The cap-indices are non-copyable,
unique objects, that are held in a Cap_map. The Cap_map is used to re-find
capabilities already present in the protection-domain, when a capability is
received via IPC. The retrieval of capabilities effectively fixes issue #112,
meaning the waste of capability-space entries.
Because Cap_index objects are non-copyable (their address indicates the position
in the capability-space of the pd), they are inappropriate to use as
Native_capability. Therefore, Native_capability is implemented as a reference
to Cap_index objects. This design seems to be a good pre-condition to implement
smart-pointers for entries in the capability-space, and thereby closing existing
leaks (please refer to issue #32).
Cap_index, Cap_map, and the allocator for Cap_index objects are designed in a way,
that it should be relatively easy to apply the same concept to NOVA also. By now,
these classes are located in the `base-foc` repository, but they intentionally
contain no Fiasco.OC specific elements.
The previously explained changes had extensive impact on the whole Fiasco.OC
platform implementation, due to various dependencies. The following things had to
be changed:
* The Thread object's startup and destruction routine is re-arranged, to
enable another thread (that calls the Thread destructor) gaining the
capability id of the thread's gate to remove it from the Cap_map, the
thread's UTCB had to be made available to the caller, because there
is the current location of that id. After having the UTCB available
in the Thread object for that reason, the whole thread bootstrapping
could be simplified.
* In the course of changing the Native_capability's semantic, a new Cap_mapping
class was introduced in core, that facilitates the establishment and
destruction of capability mappings between core and it's client's, especially
mappings related to Platform_thread and Platform_task, that are relevant to
task and thread creation and destruction. Thereby, the destruction of
threads had to be reworked, which effectively removed a bug (issue #149)
where some threads weren't destroyed properly.
* In the quick fix for issue #112, something similar to the Cap_map was
introduced available in all processes. Moreover, some kind of a capability
map already existed in core, to handle cap-session request properly. The
introduction of the Cap_map unified both structures, so that the
cap-session component code in core had to be reworked too.
* The platform initialization code had to be changed sligthly due to the
changes in Native_capability
* The vcpu initialization in the L4Linux support library had to be adapted
according to the already mentioned changes in the Thread object's bootstrap
code.

Fiasco.OC: several capability ref-counter fixes.
This commit fixes several issues that were triggered e.g. by the
'noux_tool_chain' run-script (fix #208 in part). The following problems
are tackled:
* Don't reference count capability selectors within a task that are actually
controlled by core (all beneath 0x200000), because it's undecideable which
"version" of a capability selector we currently use, e.g. a thread gets
destroyed and a new one gets created immediately some other thread might
have a Native_capability pointing to the already destroyed thread's gate
capability-slot, that is now a new valid one (the one of the new thread)
* In core we cannot invalidate and remove a capability from the so called
Cap_map before each reference to it is destroyed, so don't do this in
Cap_session_component::free, but only reference-decrement within there,
the actual removal can only be done in Cap_map::remove. Because core also
has to invalidate a capability to be removed in all protection-domains
we have to implement a core specific Cap_map::remove method
* When a capability gets inserted into the Cap_map, and we detect an old
invalid entry with the dame id in the tree, don't just overmap that
invalid entry (as there exist remaining references to it), but just remove
it from the tree and allocate an new entry.
* Use the Cap_session_component interface to free a Pager_object when it
gets dissolved, as its also used for allocation
