147b1ec2b1 hw_x86_64: Adjust parameter type of Message_tpl::prepare_send
Change the type of the local name parameter from unsigned to unsigned
long. Otherwise only 4 bytes are copied on x86_64, leaving 4 bytes of
garbage.

a974726e26 hw: skeleton for building on x86_64
This patch contains the initial code needed to build and bootstrap the
base-hw kernel on x86 64-bit platforms. It gets stuck earlier
because the binary contains 64-bit instructions, but it is started in
32-bit mode. The initial setup of page tables and switch to long mode is
still missing from the crt0 code.

381711dbea hw: extend warning messages to ease debugging
To ease debugging without the need to tweak the kernel every time, and to
support userland developers with useful information this commit extends several
warnings and errors printed by the kernel/core by which thread/application
caused the problem, and what exactly failed.

9737b5d966 tz_vmm: support USB-Armory board
For the USB-Armory, we use a newer version of Linux (3.18) as for the
i.MX53-QSB. The main difference is, that the newer Linux uses a DTB instead of
ATAGs.

7582396e9c hw_arndale: enable ARM virtualization extensions
* enables world-switch using ARM virtualization extensions
* split TrustZone and virtualization extensions hardly from platforms,
  where it is not used
* extend 'Vm_session' interface to enable configuration of guest-physical memory
* introduce VM destruction syscall
* add virtual machine monitor for hw_arndale that emulates a simplified version
  of ARM's Versatile Express Cortex A15 board for a Linux guest OS

9a4a0448be hw vea9x4: remove trustzone support
When building Genode for VEA9X4 as micro-hypervisor protected by the ARM
TrustZone hardware we ran into limitations regarding our basic daily
testing routines. The most significant is that, when speaking about RAM
partitioning, the only available options are to configure the whole SRAM
to be secure and the whole DDR-RAM to be non-secure or vice versa. The
SRAM however provides only 32 MB which isn't enough for both a
representative non-secure guest OS or a secure Genode that is still
capable of passing our basic tests. This initiated our decision to
remove the VEA9X4 TrustZone-support.

be7d5b4827 hw: use context-area base that is ok for VEA9X4-TZ
On VEA9X4-TZ, the context-area overlaps with the virtual area of the
text, data and bss. However, we can't simply change the link address as
the core image (used physically respectively 1:1 mapped) needs to be in
this particular RAM-region as it is the only one that can be protected
against a VM. Thus I've moved the context area to a place where it
shouldn't disturb any HW-platform.

4d3fa001e0 hw: remove memory region duplicate (fix #1304)
On the Versatile Express Cortex A9x4 platform the first memory region
0x0 - 0x4000000 is a hardware remapped memory area, containing flash
and DDR RAM copies and thus should not be added in addition to all
DDR RAM regions and the SRAM region.

b8ba3a7a22 hw: rename Kernel::Processor Kernel::Cpu
Kernel::Processor was a confusing remnant from the old scheme where we had a
Processor_driver (now Genode::Cpu) and a Processor (now Kernel::Cpu).
This commit also updates the in-code documentation and the variable and
function naming accordingly.

a46de84f89 Fix race condition in page fault notification
When a page fault cannot be resolved, the GDB monitor can get a hint about
which thread faulted by evaluating the thread state object returned by
'Cpu_session::state()'. Unfortunately, with the current implementation,
the signal which informs GDB monitor about the page fault is sent before
the thread state object of the faulted thread has been updated, so it
can happen that the faulted thread cannot be determined immediately
after receiving the signal.

With this commit, the thread state gets updated before the signal is sent.

At least on base-nova it can also happen that the thread state is not
accessible yet after receiving the page fault notification. For this
reason, GDB monitor needs to retry its query until the state is
accessible.

Fixes #1206.

786fe805da base: introduce caching attributes (fix #1184)
On ARM it's relevant to not only distinguish between ordinary cached memory
and write-combined one, but also having non-cached memory too. To insert the
appropriated page table entries e.g.: in the base-hw kernel, we need to preserve
the information about the kind of memory from allocation until the pager
resolves a page fault. Therefore, this commit introduces a new Cache_attribute
type, and replaces the write_combined boolean with the new type where necessary.

step for improving the tools for managing 3rd-party source codes.
The rationale is described in the issue referenced below.
