This patch removes old 'Allocator_guard' utility and replaces its use
with the modern 'Constrained_ram_allocator'.
The adjustment of core in this respect has the side effect of a more
accurate capability accounting in core's CPU, TRACE, and RM services.
In particular, the dataspace capabilities needed for core-internal
allocations via the 'Sliced_heap' are accounted to the client now.
The same goes for nitpicker and nic_dump as other former users of the
allocator guard. Hence, the patch also touches code at the client and
server sides related to these services.
The only remaining user of the 'Allocator_guard' is the Intel GPU
driver. As the adaptation of this component would be too invasive
without testing, this patch leaves this component unchanged by keeping a
copy of the 'allocator_guard.h' locally at the component.
Fixes#3750
This patch largely reverts the commit "base: lay groundwork for
base-linux caps change" because the use of 'epoll' instead of 'select'
alleviated the need to allocate large FD sets, which motivated the
introduction of the 'Native_context' hook.

The mutex class is more restrictive in usage compared to
Genode::Lock.
- At initialiation time it is ever unlocked.
- No thread is permitted to lock twice. Warn about it
in case it happens.
- Only the lock onwer is permitted to unlock the mutex.
Warn about it and don't unlock the mutex in case it happens.
Issue #3612
Components like kernel, core, and bootstrap that are built for a
specific board need to reside inside the same architectural dependent
build directory. For instance there are sel4, foc, and hw kernel builds
for imx6q_sabrelite and imx7d_sabre, which have to reside inside the same
arm_v7 build directory.
This commit names those components explicitely, and adapts the run-tool to it.
Fix#3316
Track the dataspaces used by attach and add handling of flushing VM space
when dataspace gets destroyed (not triggered via the vm_session interface).
Issue #3111
Issue #3111
- enable vt-x in kernel configuration
Kernel patches:
- add unrestricted guest support
- avoid kernel boot failure when vt-x is not available
- avoid nullpointer in kernel when vcpu is not fully setup
- avoid vcpu scheduling bug which causes starvation on same/below prio level
- save efer register correctly from guest
Until now, Genode referenced a fork of the outdated elfloader-tool
to enable bootstrapping of sel4 on ARM platforms. Because the
elfloader is inherently dependent on the used platforms newer
ARM versions supported by the kernel could not be loaded by the
outdated elfloader. This commit uses a fresh fork of the nowadays
used sel4_tools repository.
