2e1e7b8270 recipes/src/base-hw-muen: add static ACPI ROM
As we don't execute the acpi_drv on Muen, we have to supply a static
'acpi' info as boot module. This is normally done by the
base/run/platform.inc include. However, when using base-hw-muen kernel
from a depot archive - as done by modern run scripts like
depot_download.run - the platform.inc magic is not applied.

This patch enhances the src archive of base-hw-muen with a mechanism
that creates a pre-defined acpi info at the bin directory via an
artificial src/acpi/target.mk file. This way, the static acpi ROM ends
up as boot module when importing the base-hw-muen archive into a
run script.

6b289a1423 base/core: use references instead of pointers
This patch replaces the former prominent use of pointers by references
wherever feasible. This has the following benefits:

* The contract between caller and callee becomes more obvious. When
  passing a reference, the contract says that the argument cannot be
  a null pointer. The caller is responsible to ensure that. Therefore,
  the use of reference eliminates the need to add defensive null-pointer
  checks at the callee site, which sometimes merely exist to be on the
  safe side. The bottom line is that the code becomes easier to follow.

* Reference members must be initialized via an object initializer,
  which promotes a programming style that avoids intermediate object-
  construction states. Within core, there are still a few pointers
  as member variables left though. E.g., caused by the late association
  of 'Platform_thread' objects with their 'Platform_pd' objects.

* If no pointers are present as member variables, we don't need to
  manually provide declarations of a private copy constructor and
  an assignment operator to avoid -Weffc++ errors "class ... has
  pointer data members [-Werror=effc++]".

This patch also changes a few system bindings on NOVA and Fiasco.OC,
e.g., the return value of the global 'cap_map' accessor has become a
reference. Hence, the patch touches a few places outside of core.

237d2bff3a base: fix deadlock during signal-context dissolve
This patch moves the removal of the signal context from the
'_platform_finish_dissolve' to the '_platform_begin_dissolve'
method. This is needed because the removal involves taking
the signal-registry lock. The latter must adhere the same
locking order as the code path used for signal delivery.

bf62d6b896 Move timer from os to base repository
Since the timer and timeout handling is part of the base library (the
dynamic linker), it belongs to the base repository.

Besides moving the timer and its related infrastructure (alarm, timeout
libs, tests) to the base repository, this patch also moves the timer
from the 'drivers' subdirectory directly to 'src' and disamibuates the
timer's build locations for the various kernels. Otherwise the different
timer implementations could interfere with each other when using one
build directory with multiple kernels.

Note that this patch changes the include paths for the former os/timer,
os/alarm.h, os/duration.h, and os/timed_semaphore.h to base/.

8e13b376b0 hw: improve cross-cpu synchronization
This commit addresses several multiprocessing issues in base-hw:

* it reworks cross-cpu maintainance work for TLB invalidation by
  introducing a generic Inter_processor_work and removes the so
  called Cpu_domain_update
* thereby it solves the cross-cpu thread destruction, when the
  corresponding thread is active on another cpu (fix #3043)
* it adds the missing TLB shootdown for x86 (fix #3042)
* on ARM it removes the TLB shootdown via IPIs, because this
  is not needed on the multiprocessing ARM platforms we support
* it enables the per-cpu initialization of the kernel's cpu
  objects, which means those object initialization is executed
  by the proper cpu
* it rollbacks prior decision to make multiprocessing an aspect,
  but puts back certain 'smp' mechanisms (like cross-cpu lock)
  into the generic code base for simplicity reasons

7d641d5f1f base: add Reconstructible::conditional method
The new 'conditional' method simplifies the typical use case for
'Constructible' objects where the constructed/destructed state depends

re-implement the logic again and again.

The patch also removes the 'Reconstructible' constructor arguments
because they are unused.

fbe9d26c47 trace: initialize trace control in Thread::start
Previously, the trace control of a thread was initialized in its
constructor (which is generic for all components). This has the
disadvantage that the CPU-session-pointer member of the thread might not
be valid at this point. And it cannot be replaced by using the
"deprecated_env" CPU session neither as constructing the deprecated
environment in causes troubles in Core. But as the trace control
shouldn't be needed in Core anyway, the initialization can be moved to
the Thread::start implementation of non-core components. This code
already takes care of the CPU session pointer.

abf9557bb5 AVL node/tree: make non-copyable
AVL trees can't be copied with the default copy constructor as the
parent pointer of the first item of both of the resulting trees would
point to the original tree. Copying an AVL node, however, generally
violates the integrity of the corresponding tree. The copy constructor
of Avl_tree is used in some places but in those places it can be
replaced easily. So, this commit deletes the copy constructor of
Avl_node_base which makes Avl_node and Avl_tree non-copyable.

eba9c15746 Follow practices suggested by "Effective C++"
The patch adjust the code of the base, base-<kernel>, and os repository.
To adapt existing components to fix violations of the best practices
suggested by "Effective C++" as reported by the -Weffc++ compiler
argument. The changes follow the patterns outlined below:

* A class with virtual functions can no longer publicly inherit base
  classed without a vtable. The inherited object may either be moved
  to a member variable, or inherited privately. The latter would be
  used for classes that inherit 'List::Element' or 'Avl_node'. In order
  to enable the 'List' and 'Avl_tree' to access the meta data, the
  'List' must become a friend.

* Instead of adding a virtual destructor to abstract base classes,
  we inherit the new 'Interface' class, which contains a virtual
  destructor. This way, single-line abstract base classes can stay
  as compact as they are now. The 'Interface' utility resides in
  base/include/util/interface.h.

* With the new warnings enabled, all member variables must be explicitly
  initialized. Basic types may be initialized with '='. All other types
  are initialized with braces '{ ... }' or as class initializers. If
  basic types and non-basic types appear in a row, it is nice to only
  use the brace syntax (also for basic types) and align the braces.

* If a class contains pointers as members, it must now also provide a
  copy constructor and assignment operator. In the most cases, one
  would make them private, effectively disallowing the objects to be
  copied. Unfortunately, this warning cannot be fixed be inheriting
  our existing 'Noncopyable' class (the compiler fails to detect that
  the inheriting class cannot be copied and still gives the error).
  For now, we have to manually add declarations for both the copy
  constructor and assignment operator as private class members. Those
  declarations should be prepended with a comment like this:

        /*
         * Noncopyable
         */
        Thread(Thread const &);
        Thread &operator = (Thread const &);

  In the future, we should revisit these places and try to replace
  the pointers with references. In the presence of at least one
  reference member, the compiler would no longer implicitly generate
  a copy constructor. So we could remove the manual declaration.

b811ef4331 signal: fix starvation by fast signal contexts
In the past, a signal context, that was chosen for handling by
'Signal_receiver::pending_signal and always triggered again before
the next call of 'pending_signal', caused all other contexts behind
in the list to starve. This was the case because 'pending_signal'
always took the first pending context in its context list.

We avoid this problem now by handling pending signals in a round-robin
fashion instead.

Some x86 machines do have a LAPIC speed < 1000 ticks per millisecond

399e1586be timer: generic timer_ticks_to_us implementation
There are hardware timers whose frequency can't be expressed as
ticks-per-microsecond integer-value because only a ticks-per-millisecond
integer-value is precise enough. We don't want to use expensive
floating-point values here but nonetheless want to translate from ticks
to time with microseconds precision. Thus, we split the input in two and
translate both parts separately. This way, we can raise precision by
shifting the values to their optimal bit position. Afterwards, the results
are shifted back and merged together again.

As this algorithm is not so trivial anymore and used by at least three
timer drivers (base-hw/x86_64, base-hw/cortex_a9, timer/pit), move it to a
generic header to avoid redundancy.

c70fed29f7 os/timer: interpolate time via timestamps
Previously, the Genode::Timer::curr_time always used the
Timer_session::elapsed_ms RPC as back end.  Now, Genode::Timer reads
this remote time only in a periodic fashion independently from the calls
to Genode::Timer::curr_time. If now one calls Genode::Timer::curr_time,
the function takes the last read remote time value and adapts it using
the timestamp difference since the remote-time read. The conversion
factor from timestamps to time is estimated on every remote-time read
using the last read remote-time value and the timestamp difference since
the last remote time read.

This commit also re-works the timeout test. The test now has two stages.
In the first stage, it tests fast polling of the
Genode::Timer::curr_time. This stage checks the error between locally
interpolated and timer-driver time as well as wether the locally
interpolated time is monotone and sufficiently homogeneous. In the
second stage several periodic and one-shot timeouts are scheduled at
once. This stage checks if the timeouts trigger sufficiently precise.

This commit adds the new Kernel::time syscall to base-hw. The syscall is
solely used by the Genode::Timer on base-hw as substitute for the
timestamp. This is because on ARM, the timestamp function uses the ARM
performance counter that stops counting when the WFI (wait for
interrupt) instruction is active. This instruction, however is used by
the base-hw idle contexts that get active when no user thread needs to
be scheduled.  Thus, the ARM performance counter is not a good choice for
time interpolation and we use the kernel internal time instead.

With this commit, the timeout library becomes a basic library. That means
that it is linked against the LDSO which then provides it to the program it
serves. Furthermore, you can't use the timeout library anymore without the
LDSO because through the kernel-dependent LDSO make-files we can achieve a
kernel-dependent timeout implementation.

This commit introduces a structured Duration type that shall successively
replace the use of Microseconds, Milliseconds, and integer types for duration
values.

Open issues:

* The timeout test fails on Raspberry PI because of precision errors in the
  first stage. However, this does not render the framework unusable in general
  on the RPI but merely is an issue when speaking of microseconds precision.

* If we run on ARM with another Kernel than HW the timestamp speed may
  continuously vary from almost 0 up to CPU speed. The Timer, however,
  only uses interpolation if the timestamp speed remained stable (12.5%
  tolerance) for at least 3 observation periods. Currently, one period is
  100ms, so its 300ms. As long as this is not the case,
  Timer_session::elapsed_ms is called instead.

  Anyway, it might happen that the CPU load was stable for some time so
  interpolation becomes active and now the timestamp speed drops. In the
  worst case, we would now have 100ms of slowed down time. The bad thing
  about it would be, that this also affects the timeout of the period.
  Thus, it might "freeze" the local time for more than 100ms.

  On the other hand, if the timestamp speed suddenly raises after some
  stable time, interpolated time can get too fast. This would shorten the
  period but nonetheless may result in drifting away into the far future.
  Now we would have the problem that we can't deliver the real time
  anymore until it has caught up because the output of Timer::curr_time
  shall be monotone. So, effectively local time might "freeze" again for
  more than 100ms.

  It would be a solution to not use the Trace::timestamp on ARM w/o HW but
  a function whose return value causes the Timer to never use
  interpolation because of its stability policy.

60a7fe5586 hw & arm: write whole SPSR in mode transition
Previously we did write the SPSR via an MSR instruction without

register only partially. This often isn't a problem as the users PSR
reset value normally is conform to our expectations but in some cases
(e.g. PSR endianess bit on WandBoard core #4) the reset value is bad.
Thus, we have to add the CXSF flags (access Control + eXtension + Status
+ Flags) so the CPU overwrites the entire register.

4d442bca30 Streamline exception types
This patch reduces the number of exception types by facilitating
globally defined exceptions for common usage patterns shared by most
services. In particular, RPC functions that demand a session-resource
upgrade not longer reflect this condition via a session-specific
exception but via the 'Out_of_ram' or 'Out_of_caps' types.

Furthermore, the 'Parent::Service_denied', 'Parent::Unavailable',
'Root::Invalid_args', 'Root::Unavailable', 'Service::Invalid_args',
'Service::Unavailable', and 'Local_service::Factory::Denied' types have
been replaced by the single 'Service_denied' exception type defined in
'session/session.h'.

This consolidation eases the error handling (there are fewer exceptions
to handle), alleviates the need to convert exceptions along the
session-creation call chain, and avoids possible aliasing problems
(catching the wrong type with the same name but living in a different
scope).

1f4f119b1e Capability quota accounting and trading
This patch mirrors the accounting and trading scheme that Genode employs
for physical memory to the accounting of capability allocations.

Capability quotas must now be explicitly assigned to subsystems by
specifying a 'caps=<amount>' attribute to init's start nodes.
Analogously to RAM quotas, cap quotas can be traded between clients and
servers as part of the session protocol. The capability budget of each
component is maintained by the component's corresponding PD session at
core.

At the current stage, the accounting is applied to RPC capabilities,
signal-context capabilities, and dataspace capabilities. Capabilities
that are dynamically allocated via core's CPU and TRACE service are not
yet covered. Also, the capabilities allocated by resource multiplexers
outside of core (like nitpicker) must be accounted by the respective
servers, which is not covered yet.

If a component runs out of capabilities, core's PD service prints a
warning to the log. To observe the consumption of capabilities per
component in detail, the PD service is equipped with a diagnostic
mode, which can be enabled via the 'diag' attribute in the target
node of init's routing rules. E.g., the following route enables the
diagnostic mode for the PD session of the "timer" component:

  <default-route>
    <service name="PD" unscoped_label="timer">
      <parent diag="yes"/>
    </service>
    ...
  </default-route>

For subsystems based on a sub-init instance, init can be configured
to report the capability-quota information of its subsystems by
adding the attribute 'child_caps="yes"' to init's '<report>'
config node. Init's own capability quota can be reported by adding
the attribute 'init_caps="yes"'.

Furthermore, the 'Parent' interface distinguished now between
'Out_of_ram' (the child's RAM is exhausted) from
'Insufficient_ram_quota' (the child's RAM donation does not suffice to
establish the session).

This eliminates ambiguities and removes the need to convert exception
types along the path of the session creation.

PD session meta data - and eventually merging the PD and RAM services -

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'.

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

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.
