By now all services in core where created, and registered in the generic
main routine. Although there exists already a x86-specific service (I/O ports)
there was no possibility to announce core-services for certain platforms only.
This commit introduces a hook function in the 'Platform' class, that enables
registration of platform-specific services. Moreover, the io-port service
is offered on x86 platforms only now.
Implement shared IRQs using 'Irq_proxy' class.
Nova: Added global worker 'Irq_thread' support in core and adapted Irq_session.
FOC: Adapted IRQ session code, x86 has shared IRQ support, ARM uses the old
model. Read and set 'mode' argument (from MADT) in 'Irq_session'.
OKL4: Use generic 'Irq_proxy'
Fixes issue #390
This patch introduces the functions 'affinity' and 'num_cpus' to the CPU
session interface. The interface extension will allow the assignment of
individual threads to CPUs. At this point, it is just a stub with no
actual platform support.
With this patch clients of the RM service can state if they want a mapping
to be executable or not. This allows dataspaces to be mapped as
non-executable on Linux by default and as executable only if needed.
Partially fixes#176.
The 'copy_to' function turned out to be not flexible enough to
accommodate the Noux fork mechanism. This patch removes the function,
adds an accessor for the capability destination and a compound type
'Native_capability::Raw' to be used wherever plain capability
information must be communicated.
