Christian Prochaska 078883fda3 base: interface for D- and I-cache synchronization On ARM, when machine instructions get written into the data cache (for example by a JIT compiler), one needs to make sure that the instructions get written out to memory and read from memory into the instruction cache before they get executed. This functionality is usually provided by a kernel syscall and this patch adds a generic interface for Genode applications to use it. Fixes #1153.		2014-05-27 11:14:45 +02:00

README

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.
