d884cf1a9a base: unify ascii_to conversion functions
This patch addresses the first point of the issue #1477, namely
replacing the function-template magic by plain function overloads.

63ebebcfa4 nitpicker: update the 'pointed session' more often
Currently, the 'pointed session' gets updated only when an input event
occurs, but an update is also needed in other situations, for example
when the view under the current mouse position was moved.

With this commit, the 'pointed session' gets updated whenever the
timer-triggered 'handle_input()' function is called.

0fd53c7fe4 Extract numeric string arguments with the correct signedness
There are lots of places where a numeric argument of an argument string
gets extraced as signed long value and then assigned to an unsigned long
variable. If the value in the string was negative, it would not be
detected as invalid (and replaced by the default value), but become a
positive bogus value.

With this patch, numeric values which are supposed to be unsigned get
extracted with the 'ulong_value()' function, which returns the default
value for negative numbers.

91e0a5d5dd SD-card driver for the Raspberry Pi
The driver operates in PIO mode only. Depending on the block size (512
bytes versus 128 KiB), it has a troughput of 2 MiB/sec - 10 MiB/sec for
reading and 173 KiB/sec - 8 MiB/sec for writing.

ea9c2199e8 base: extend emergency dataspace size
The emergency dataspace is used to accommodate the corner case where
a signal context capability is created while issuing the first
resource request. Normally, the attempt to upgrade the signal-session
quota under such a constrained situation would fail. By freeing the
emergency dataspace in this situation, we regain enough quota to
upgrade the signal session.

This is a follow up commit for "base: Raise RAM quota of signal session
to 16K" and fixes the resource_request test on 64-bit platforms.

7441df33c9 Improvements of parse_cxx tool
This patch improves the C++ parser to accommodate the tools for
generating the functional specification from source code:

* Added support for class definitions prefixed with a
  namespace as promoted by Genode's coding style.
* Improves robustness of the parsing of function arguments by
  considering nameless arguments in function declarations, default
  values, varargs.
* Consider const qualfiers in return types.
* Added support for the override, constexpr keywords.
* Parsing of overloaded operators.
* Improved handling of type definitions.
* Added parsing of template arguments.
* Handling of template constructors.

13a0c336d9 base: separate the API's 'Thread_base' constructor
The 'Thread_base' class is constructed differently in some special cases
like the main thread or a thread that use a distinct CPU session. The
official API, however, should be clean from such artifacts. Hence, I
separated the official constructor from the other cases.

70aa98d837 hw: fix bug in cancellation of 'await_signal'
There were two bugs. First, the caller of Kernel::await_signal wasn't
re-activated for scheduling. Second, the caller did not memorize that he
doesn't wait on a receiver anymore which had bad side effects on further
signal handling.

The port uses the Cortex-A9 private timer for the kernel and an EPIT as
user timer. It was successfully tested on the Wandboard Quad and the CuBox-i
with the signal test. It lacks L2-cache and Trustzone support by now.

LLC, Russia). This work is partially based on their contributions.

c82f5e9269 hw_x86_64: Do not mask edge-triggered interrupts
Do not mask edge-triggered interrupts to avoid losing them while masked,
see Intel 82093AA I/O Advanced Programmable Interrupt Controller
(IOAPIC) specification, section 3.4.2, "Interrupt Mask":

"When this bit is 1, the interrupt signal is masked. Edge-sensitive
interrupts signaled on a masked interrupt pin are ignored (i.e., not
delivered or held pending)"

Or to quote Linus Torvalds on the subject:

"Now, edge-triggered interrupts are a _lot_ harder to mask, because the
Intel APIC is an unbelievable piece of sh*t, and has the edge-detect
logic _before_ the mask logic, so if a edge happens _while_ the device
is masked, you'll never ever see the edge ever again (unmasking will not
cause a new edge, so you simply lost the interrupt)."

So when you "mask" an edge-triggered IRQ, you can't really mask it at
all, because if you did that, you'd lose it forever if the IRQ comes in
while you masked it. Instead, we're supposed to leave it active, and set
a flag, and IF the IRQ comes in, we just remember it, and mask it at
that point instead, and then on unmasking, we have to replay it by
sending a self-IPI." [1]

e5f26fa8db base: Raise RAM quota of signal session to 16K
On base-hw/x86_64 the quota of the signal session is not sufficient due to
the large size of the Signal_session_component. Increasing the quota to
16K avoids signal-context resource exhaustion messages as emmitted by the
run/launcher scenario:

  ...
  Quota exceeded! amount=4096, size=4096, consumed=4096
  failed to allocate signal-context resources
  upgrading quota donation for signal session
  C++ runtime: Genode::Parent::Quota_exceeded
  void* abort(): abort called
  ...

Note: This change increases the quota for all kernels even though it is
      strictly only required for base-hw/x86_64.

7ce8464b3a hw_x86_64: Enable FPU support
* Enable the use of the FXSAVE and FXRSTOR instructions, see Intel SDM
  Vol. 3C, section 2.5.
* The state of the x87 floating point unit (FPU) is loaded and saved on
  demand.
* Make the cr0 control register accessible in the Cpu class. This is in
  preparation of the upcoming FPU management.
* Access to the FPU is disabled by setting the Task Switch flag in the cr0
  register.
* Access to the FPU is enabled by clearing the Task Switch flag in the cr0
  register.
* Implement FPU initialization
* Add is_fpu_enabled helper function
* Add pointer to CPU lazy state to CPU class
* Init FPU when finishing kernel initialization
* Add function to retry FPU instruction:
    Similar to the ARM mechanism to retry undefined instructions, implement a
    function for retrying an FPU instruction. If a floating-point instruction
    causes an #NM exception due to the FPU being disabled, it can be retried
    after the correct FPU state is restored, saving the current state and
    enabling the FPU in the process.
* Disable FPU when switching to different user context:
    This enables lazy save/restore of the FPU since trying to execute a
    floating point instruction when the FPU is disabled will cause a #NM
    exception.
* Declare constant for #NM exception
* Retry FPU instruction on #NM exception
* Assure alignment of FXSAVE area:
    The FXSAVE area is 512-byte memory region that must be 16-byte aligned. As
    it turns out the alignment attribute is not honored in all cases so add a
    workaround to assure the alignment constraint is met by manually rounding
    the start of the FXSAVE area to the next 16-byte boundary if necessary.

disable it.
