The former ldso-startup static library (now called ldso_so_support) is used to spice each shared object/library with local support code for the dynamic linker (execution of static constructors and ARM-EABI). Therefore, the library must be statically linked to each dynamic library. As a result recipes for dynamic libraries must always depend on the "so" API, which makes ldso_so_support.mk and so_support.c available independent of "base". Additionally, ldso_so_support is also provided in the libc API to cut the dependency early for libc/posix libraries. Issue #3720
This is generic part of the Genode implementation. It consists of two parts: :_Core_: is the ultimate root of the Genode application tree and provides abstractions for the lowest-level hardware resources such as RAM, ROM, CPU, and generic device access. All generic parts of Core can be found here - for system-specific implementations refer to the appropriate 'base-<system>' directory. :_Base libraries and protocols_: that are used by each Genode component to interact with other components. This is the glue that holds everything together. _Core_ may export information about the hardware platform by an ROM called 'platform_info'. Depending on the platform, e.g. ARM or x86 or riscv, and depending on the boot mode and boot loader and kernel, some nodes may not be populated. !<platform_info> ! <acpi revision="2" rsdt="0x1fe93074" xsdt="0x1fe930e8"/> ! <boot> ! <framebuffer phys="0x7300000" width="1024" height="768" bpp="32"/> ! </boot> !</platform_info> If the ACPI RSDT and XSDT physical pointer is reported by the used kernel and/or bootloader, _Core_ may provide this information by the ROM. If the graphic device is initialised and can be directly used by a framebuffer driver, _Core_ may provide the physical pointer to the framebuffer, the resolution and color depth in bits.
