Set cpu_session default affinity space already during
construction of the thread, so that main thread is placed in the cpu affinity
space as defined by the parent. Otherwise the main thread is placed potentially
outside the affinity space, typically on the first/boot CPU.
Fixes#1107
Reserve first bit in bit allocator for main thread of context allocator and
remove special cases in context allocator. Without the reservation there is
is one context outside the context area allocated.
Fixes#1100
The do statement ensures the macros to generate just one expression that
is compatible with any programming construct. The concrete bug was
if (cond)
PDBG(...);
else
...
which was expanded to
if (cond)
if (DO_PDBG)
Genode::printf(...);
else
...
This is obviously wrong as the *else* branch is then connected to the
second *if*.
* Core_mem_allocator: implement Range_allocator interface
* Core_mem_allocator: allocate with page-granularity only
* Use slab allocators in core where meaningful (e.g. dataspace objects)
When an object derived from Genode::Connection is copied we had
strange issues. An example is that the first RPC invocation works
correctly but the second one blocks or even delivers incorrect data.
We can avoid this issue if the object is always passed by reference.
Ensure this by deriving from Genode::Noncopyable.
This is normally needed in LDSO and was previously done by the LDSO specific crt0.s.
I forgot to keep it during the unification of the different crt0s.
fix#1077
Check that in every round really all threads are alive on all CPUs. It
happened that only the first round was ok (all alive) and in the next rounds
some were dead. Unfortunately the test claimed to be successful.
The destructor of the Area object uses invalid caps which results in
a wanted abort of the process on nova. This is mainly the case in forked
process in noux.
This function provides a way to request the size of an previously
allocated block. It is useful to to ease the implementation of realloc
functionality based on Allocator_avl.
All the pre- and post-processing of the startup lib around the main
function of a dynamic program is now done by LDSO. Hence LDSO directly
calls the main function of the program.
Issue #1042
This is needed later when eliminating the need for a startup lib in
dynamic programs to enable LDSO to call ctors and dtors of the program.
Issue #1042
After some research we found that the stack pointer on ARM platforms must be
at least double word aligned (See: "Procedure Call Standard for the ARM
Architecture" - 5.2.1.1). Since a 'call' on ARM will not result in a stack pointer
change (like on x86), the current behavior resulted in a 4 Byte aligned stack
only.

This commit generalizes the bit array in 'base/util/bit_array.h',
so that it can be used in a statically, when the array size is known
at compile time, or dynamically. It uses the dynamic approach of the
bit array for a more generalized version of the packet allocator,
formerly only used by NIC session clients. The more generic packet
allocator is used by the block cache to circumvent the allocation
deadlock described in issue #1059.
Fixes#1059
Base libraries are already contained within ldso.lib.so. Remove unnecessary
filtering from 'dep_lib.mk', make ldso depend on base libs.

Issue #989
As the initial main-thread stack is not used for the whole main-thread life
anymore but only for the initialization of the Genode environment it can be
downsized to 32Kb for all architectures.
ref #989
For a main thread a thread object is created by the CRT0 before _main gets
called so that _main can already run in a generic environment that, e.g.,
catches stack overflows as a page-fault instead of corrupting the BSS.
Additionally dynamic programs have only one CRT0 - the one of the LDSO -
which does the initialization for both LDSO and program.
ref #989
This utility allows for the manual placement of objects without the need
to have a global placement new operation nor the need for type-specific
new operators.
