So far, the lifetime-management utilities 'Weak_ptr' and 'Locked_ptr' had been preserved for core-internal use only. However, the utilities are handy for many use cases outside of core where object lifetimes must be managed. So we promote them to the public API.
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.
