With this patch, the 'futex' syscall gets used for blocking and unblocking
of threads in the Linux-specific lock implementation.
The 'Native_thread_id' type, which was previously used in the
lock-internal 'Applicant' class to identify a thread to be woken up,
was not suitable anymore for implementing this change. With this patch,
the 'Thread_base*' type gets used instead, which also has the positive
effect of making the public 'cancelable_lock.h' header file
platform-independent.
Fixes#646.
Merge core only libs into the target make-files.
Use base-hw specific Board drivers that inherit
from generic Board_base.
Use Page_flags::access_t instead of additional
page_flags_t.
Fix#570
On Linux, we want to attach additional attributes to processes, i.e.,
the chroot location, the designated UID, and GID. Instead of polluting
the generic code with such Linux-specific platform details, I introduced
the new 'Native_pd_args' type, which can be customized for each
platform. The platform-dependent policy of init is factored out in the
new 'pd_args' library.
The new 'base-linux/run/lx_pd_args.run' script can be used to validate
the propagation of those attributes into core.
Note that this patch does not add the interpretation of the new UID and
PID attributes by core. This will be subject of a follow-up patch.
Related to #510.
Implement 'Signal_receiver::pending()'.
Provide display-subsystem MMIO.
Avoid method ambiguousness in 'Irq_context' in
'dde_linux/src/drivers/usb/signal/irq.cc'
(it derives from two list element classes when using 'base_hw').
Enables demo scenario with 'hw_panda_a2'.
