e61a5b0d05 base-hw: Fix PML4 size and constants
The size of the whole table and table entries were exchanged for PML4,
leading to out-of-bound accesses for addesses >= 2^39. Some constants
were lacking type suffixes causing integer overflows.

Added assertions to catch out-of-bound accesses early on.

05655a9d88 hw cortex-a9 timer: raise translation precision
If we do the tics-to-us translation with one division and multiplication
over the whole argument, like before, we loose microseconds granularity
although the timer frequency allows for such granularity. Thus, we treat
the most significant half and the least significant half of the tics
value separate. Each half is shifted to the best bit position for the
translation, then translated, and then shifted back.

574a1bd198 test/cpu_quota: tolerate errors in session quota
Previously we pre-calculated the translation errors for the session
quota to make a discret check in the test. But since the order, in which
init childs get their CPU quota isn't always the same anymore (we should
have never made assumptions about that) the translation errors differ
from trial to trial. However, the errors are below 0.01% of the super
period. We now tolerate them in the run script.

56cafb3b57 hw: fix race in signal dispatching
There was a race when the component entrypoint wanted to do
'wait_and_dispatch_one_signal'. In this function it raises a flag for
the signal proxy thread to notice that the entrypoint also wants to
block for signals. When the flag is set and the signal proxy wakes up
with a new signal, it tried to cancel the blocking of the entrypoint.
However, if the entrypoint had not reached the signal blocking at this
point, the cancel blocking failed without a solution. Now, the new
Kernel::cancel_next_signal_blocking call solves the problem by storing a
request to cancel the next signal blocking of a thread immediately
without blocking itself.

b66716d278 base: entrypoint 'wait_and_dispatch_one_signal'
There existed a race when 'wait_and_dispatch_one_signal' is called form
a RPC context, because the 'signal_proxy' or 'main' will block and the
signal semaphore, when the EP then calls 'wait_and_dispatch_one_signal',
the signal proxy is woken up ands sends an RPC to the EP, leading to a
dead lock if no further signal arrive, because the EP will then remain
blocked in the signal semaphore.

Therefore, for this case, the signal proxy will now perform a semaphore
up operation and does not perform an RPC if the EP is within
'wait_and_dispatch_one_signal'.

a7f40b24ca Warn about the use of deprecated env() function
This patch enables warnings if one of the deprecate functions that rely
in the implicit use of the global Genode::env() accessor are called.

For the time being, some places within the base framework continue
to rely on the global function while omitting the warning by calling
'env_deprecated' instead of 'env'.

3d7b92ea50 Generalize ABI mechanism to shared objects
This patch make the ABI mechanism available to shared libraries other
than Genode's dynamic linker. It thereby allows us to introduce
intermediate ABIs at the granularity of shared libraries. This is useful
for slow-moving ABIs such as the libc's interface but it will also
become handy for the package management.

To implement the feature, the build system had to be streamlined a bit.
In particular, archive dependencies and shared-lib dependencies are now
handled separately, and the global list of 'SHARED_LIBS' is no more.
Now, the variable with the same name holds the per-target list of shared
libraries used by the target.

4da52517c1 Simpify startup of dynamically linked binaries
This patch removes the component_entry_point library, which used to
proved a hook for the libc to intercept the call of the
'Component::construct' function. The mechansim has several shortcomings
(see the discussion in the associated issue) and was complex. So we
eventually discarded the approach in favor of the explicit handling of
the startup.

A regular Genode component provides a 'Component::construct' function,
which is determined by the dynamic linker via a symbol lookup.
For the time being, the dynamic linker falls back to looking up a 'main'
function if no 'Component::construct' function could be found.

The libc provides an implementation of 'Component::construct', which
sets up the libc's task handling and finally call the function
'Libc::Component::construct' from the context of the appllication task.
This function is expected to be provided by the libc-using application.
Consequently, Genode components that use the libc have to implement the
'Libc::Component::construct' function.

The new 'posix' library provides an implementation of
'Libc::Component::construct' that calls a main function. Hence, POSIX
programs that merely use the POSIX API merely have to add 'posix' to the
'LIBS' declaration in their 'target.mk' file. Their execution starts at
'main'.

c450ddcb3d Disambiguate kernel-specific file names
This patch removes possible ambiguities with respect to the naming of
kernel-dependent binaries and libraries. It also removes the use of
kernel-specific global side effects from the build system. The reach of
kernel-specific peculiarities has thereby become limited to the actual
users of the respective 'syscall-<kernel>' libraries.

Kernel-specific build artifacts are no longer generated at magic places
within the build directory (like okl4's includes, or the L4 build
directories of L4/Fiasco and Fiasco.OC, or the build directories of
various kernels). Instead, such artifacts have been largely moved to the
libcache. E.g., the former '<build-dir>/l4/' build directory for the L4
build system resides at '<build-dir>/var/libcache/syscall-foc/build/'.
This way, the location is unique to the kernel. Note that various tools
are still generated somewhat arbitrarily under '<build-dir>/tool/' as
there is no proper formalism for building host tools yet.

As the result of this work, it has become possible to use a joint Genode
build directory that is usable with all kernels of a given hardware
platform. E.g., on x86_32, one can now seamlessly switch between linux,
nova, sel4, okl4, fiasco, foc, and pistachio without rebuilding any
components except for core, the kernel, the dynamic linker, and the timer
driver. At the current stage, such a build directory must still be
created manually. A change of the 'create_builddir' tool will follow to
make this feature easily available.

This patch also simplifies various 'run/boot_dir' plugins by removing
the option for an externally hosted kernel. This option remained unused
for many years now.

f54c85e045 Genode application binary interface (ABI)
This patch decouples the kernel-specific implementation of the dynamic
linker from its kernel-agnostic binary interface. The name of the
kernel-specific dynamic linker binary now corresponds to the kernel,
e.g., 'ld-linux.lib.so' or 'ld-nova.lib.so'. Applications are no longer
linked directly against a concrete instance of the dynamic linker but
against a shallow stub called 'ld.lib.so'. This stub contains nothing
but the symbols provided by the dynamic linker. It thereby represents
the Genode ABI.

At system-integration time, the kernel-specific run/boot_dir back ends
integrate the matching the kernel-specific variant of the dynamic linker
as 'ld.lib.so' into the boot image.

The ABI symbol file for the dynamic linker is located at
'base/lib/symbols/ld'. It contains the joint ABI of all supported
architectures. The new utility 'tool/abi_symbols' eases the creation of
such an ABI symbol file for a given shared library. Its result should be
manually inspected and edited as needed.

The patch removes the 'syscall' library from 'base_libs.mk' to avoid
polluting the kernel-agnostic ABI with kernel-specific interfaces.

71d30297ff hw: clean up scheduling-readiness syscalls
This cleans up the syscalls that are mainly used to control the
scheduling readiness of a thread. The different use cases and
requirements were somehow mixed together in the previous interface. The
new syscall set is:

1) pause_thread and resume_thread

They don't affect the state of the thread (IPC, signalling, etc.) but
merely decide wether the thread is allowed for scheduling or not, the
so-called pause state. The pause state is orthogonal to the thread state
and masks it when it comes to scheduling. In contrast to the stopped
state, which is described in "stop_thread and restart_thread", the
thread state and the UTCB content of a thread may change while in the
paused state. However, the register state of a thread doesn't change
while paused. The "pause" and "resume" syscalls are both core-restricted
and may target any thread. They are used as back end for the CPU session
calls "pause" and "resume". The "pause/resume" feature is made for
applications like the GDB monitor that transparently want to stop and
continue the execution of a thread no matter what state the thread is
in.

2) stop_thread and restart_thread

The stop syscall can only be used on a thread in the non-blocking
("active") thread state. The thread then switches to the "stopped"
thread state in wich it explicitely waits for a restart. The restart
syscall can only be used on a thread in the "stopped" or the "active"
thread state. The thread then switches back to the "active" thread state
and the syscall returns whether the thread was stopped. Both syscalls
are not core-restricted. "Stop" always targets the calling thread while
"restart" may target any thread in the same PD as the caller. Thread
state and UTCB content of a thread don't change while in the stopped
state. The "stop/restart" feature is used when an active thread wants to
wait for an event that is not known to the kernel. Actually the syscalls
are used when waiting for locks and on thread exit.

3) cancel_thread_blocking

Does cleanly cancel a cancelable blocking thread state (IPC, signalling,
stopped). The thread whose blocking was cancelled goes back to the
"active" thread state. It may receive a syscall return value that
reflects the cancellation. This syscall doesn't affect the pause state
of the thread which means that it may still not get scheduled. The
syscall is core-restricted and may target any thread.

4) yield_thread

Does its best that a thread is scheduled as few as possible in the
current scheduling super-period without touching the thread or pause
state. In the next superperiod, however, the thread is scheduled
"normal" again. The syscall is not core-restricted and always targets
the caller.

28f5688dcf base: reduce size of initial stack from 32K to 4K
The initial stack is solely used to initialize the Genode environment
along with the application stack located in the stack area. It never
executes application code. Hence, we can make it small. To check that it
is not dimensioned too small, the patch introduces a sanity check right
before switching to the application stack.

cfdbccc5c2 Remove blocking calls from root and parent RPCs
This is a redesign of the root and parent interfaces to eliminate
blocking RPC calls.

- New session representation at the parent (base/session_state.h)
- base-internal root proxy mechanism as migration path
- Redesign of base/service.h
- Removes ancient 'Connection::KEEP_OPEN' feature
- Interface change of 'Child', 'Child_policy', 'Slave', 'Slave_policy'
- New 'Slave::Connection'
- Changed child-construction procedure to be compatible with the
  non-blocking parent interface and to be easier to use
- The child's initial LOG session, its binary ROM session, and the
  linker ROM session have become part of the child's envirenment.
- Session upgrading must now be performed via 'env.upgrade' instead
  of performing a sole RPC call the parent. To make RAM upgrades
  easier, the 'Connection' provides a new 'upgrade_ram' method.

7e1692d997 core: unify handling of boot modules
Instead of solving the problem to deliver ROM modules to core while booting
differently for the several kernels (multi-boot, elfweaver, core re-linking),
this commit unifies the approaches. It always builds core as a library, and
after all binaries are built from a run-script, the run-tool will link an
ELF image out of the core-library and all boot modules. Thereby, core can
access its ROM modules directly.

This approach now works for all kernels except Linux.

With this solution, there is no [build_dir]/bin/core binary available anymore.
For debugging purposes you will find a core binary without boot modules, but
with debug symbols under [run_dir].core.
