/* * \brief Mapping of Genode's capability names to kernel capabilities. * \author Stefan Kalkowski * \date 2012-02-16 * * Although kernels like Fiasco.OC and NOVA provide capability mechanisms * to us, which should prevent the usage of global names, there is no * efficient way to retrieve a capability a process owns, when it gets the * same capability delivered again via IPC from another thread. But in some * use-cases in Genode this is essential (e.g. parent getting a close-session * request from a child). Moreover, we waste a lot of slots in the * capability-space of the process for one and the same kernel-object. * That's why we introduce a map of Genode's global capability names to the * process-local addresses in the capability-space. * * TODO: should be moved to the generic part of the framework, and used by * NOVA too. */ /* * Copyright (C) 2012 Genode Labs GmbH * * This file is part of the Genode OS framework, which is distributed * under the terms of the GNU General Public License version 2. */ #ifndef _INCLUDE__BASE__CAP_MAP_H_ #define _INCLUDE__BASE__CAP_MAP_H_ /* Genode includes */ #include #include #include #include #include #include namespace Genode { /** * A Cap_index represents a single mapping of the global capability id * to the address in the local capability space. * * The address of the Cap_index determines the location in the * (platform-specific) capability space of the process.
