Norman Feske d71f0a9606 Cleanup of parent-cap handling This patch alleviates the need for a Native_capability::Dst at the API level. The former use case of this type as argument to Deprecated_env::reinit uses the opaque Native_capability::Raw type instead. The 'Raw' type contains the portion of the capability that is transferred as-is when delegating the capability (i.e., when installing the parent capability into a new component, or when installing a new parent capability into a new forked Noux process). This information can be retrieved via the new Native_capability::raw method. Furthermore, this patch moves the functions for retriving the parent capability to base/internal/parent_cap.h, which is meant to be implemented in platform-specific ways. It replaces the former set of startup/internal/_main_parent_cap.h headers. Issue #1993		2016-07-11 13:05:27 +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.
