To give the platform developer more freedom in how the Native_capability class is internally implemented (e.g. turning it into a smart-pointer), this patch removes the memcpy operation, when transfering the parent-capability to a new process from the generic code, and let the implementation of the platform-specific Native_capability decide how the transfer has to be done. Please refer to issue #144.
This repository contains dummy implementations of platform-specific Genode APIs to enable the compilation of Genode for the host platform. Because the repository provides only dummy implementations, most of the generated binaries will not work. However, the repository serves two important purposes. It documents the platform- specific APIs that must be filled out when porting Genode to another platform, and it is the build environment for unit tests executed on the host platform.
