This patch replaces the former Child::Process and
Child::Process::Loaded_executable classes by static functions that
return failure conditions as return values.
Issue #5245
This patch tightens the coupling of the 'Platform_thread' objects
with their corresponding 'Platform_pd' objects by specifying the
'Platform_pd' as constructor argument, keeping the relationship
as a reference (instead of a pointer), and constraining the
lifetime of 'Platform_pd' objects to the lifetime of the PD.
It thereby clears the way to simplify the thread creation since all
PD-related information (like quota budgets) are now known at the
construction time of the 'Platform_thread'.
The return value of 'Platform_thread::start' has been removed because it
is not evaluated by 'Cpu_thread_component'.

- Remove exceptions
- Use 'Attr' struct for attach arguments
- Let 'attach' return 'Range' instead of 'Local_addr'
- Renamed 'Region_map::State' to 'Region_map::Fault'

The 'Thread_creation_failed' error is now reflected as
'Thread::Start_result' return value. This change also removes the
use of 'Invalid_thread' within core as this exception is an alias
of Cpu_session::Thread_creation_failed.
Issue #5245
This patch removes the exception formerly thrown by 'Cpu_thread::state'
and turns the 'Thread_state' structure into a plain compound type w/o a
constructor.

This patch replaces exceptions of the PD session RPC interface with
result types.
The change of the quota-transfer RPC functions required the adaptation
of base/quota_transfer.h and base/child.h.
The 'alloc_signal_source' method has been renamed to 'signal_source'
to avoid an exceedingly long name of the corresponding result type.
The Pd_session::map function takes a 'Virt_range' instead of basic-type
arguments.
The 'Signal_source_capability' alias for 'Capability<Signal_source>' has
been removed.
Issue #5245
With `MAP_FIXED` absent from the mmap(3p) flags, "the implementation uses
addr in an implementation-defined manner to arrive at pa", which may
lead to a mapping at an address diffent to the requested `addr`.
Add `MAP_FIXED` to the mmmap flags to force mapping to the specified
address.
Fixes#5147
This patch replaces the exception-based error propagation by the use of
'Attempt' return values, which eliminates side effects of the exception
handling - cxx_heap allocations - from code paths that are used by the
the cxx_heap itself (when growing the cxx_heap).
It thereby fixes the failure of the sub_rm test at the "attach RAM ds to
any position at sub rm - this should fail" step.
Fixes#4953
This patch replaces the global '_wait_for_exit_sem' object by a local
static variable, which does not rely on the global ctors. It thereby
fixes the fault_detection test after the removal of the global ctors
execution from core ("base: remove component.cc from core").
Issue #4784
This patch removes the use of the Entrypoint::schedule_suspend mechanism
and the call of glibc's exit from the lx_hybrid tests, for two reasons.
First, the interplay of atexit handlers executed by the glibc and
Genode's lx_hybrid library is complicated while bringing no benefits in
practice as lx_hybrid applications are usually servers that don't exit
anyway.
Second, the Entrypoint::schedule_suspend mechanism in not used by any
other component. By removing its use from the lx_hybrid tests, we can
remove this mechanism from the base library.
Issue #4940
By supplying only the parts of the Env that are actually relevant for
initializing the cxx heap, we avoid the need for the 'Env' interface.
The patch also moves the call of 'init_ldso_phdr' to the outside
of the cxx library because it does not belong there.
Issue #4784
By splitting the 'init_capability_slab()' implementation to a separate
compilation unit 'capability_slab.cc', base-hw no longer needs a
customized version of 'lib/base/platform.cc'.
Related to issue #4784
This patch replaces the internal use 'env_deprecated()' from the
implementation of the thread API in the base library. It also
replaces the global accessor 'main_thread_cap' by the explicit
propagation of the main-thread's capability to the single point of
use via a new 'init_thread_bootstap' function.
