Revised region management detects region conflicts by using _soft_
mappings per default. Overmapping is activated for population of managed
dataspaces only. For more information see header documentation of
base-linux/src/base/env/rm_session_mmap.cc.
Fixes#883.
genode_until_run can be called now with a spawn id to able to reattach to a
spawned process (amt, serial output). Run scripts can now call genode_until_run
multiple times.
This patch removes the 'soname' link option for building the host
library for the 'lx_hybrid_ctors' test. Without this option, the
library's absolute path at build time gets hardcoded into the
application, which should be okay for this simple test case.
Fixes#638.
With this patch, custom UIDs and GIDs can be assigned to individual
Genode processes or whole Genode subsystems.
The new 'base-linux/run/lx_uid.run' script contains an example of how to
use the feature.
Fixes#510
On Linux, we want to attach additional attributes to processes, i.e.,
the chroot location, the designated UID, and GID. Instead of polluting
the generic code with such Linux-specific platform details, I introduced
the new 'Native_pd_args' type, which can be customized for each
platform. The platform-dependent policy of init is factored out in the
new 'pd_args' library.
The new 'base-linux/run/lx_pd_args.run' script can be used to validate
the propagation of those attributes into core.
Note that this patch does not add the interpretation of the new UID and
PID attributes by core. This will be subject of a follow-up patch.
Related to #510.
