Enable routing of thread events to signal contexts via
Kernel::route_thread_event.
Replace Kernel::set_pager by Kernel::route_thread_event.
In base-hw a pager object is a signal context and a pager activation
is a signal receiver. If a thread wants to start communicating its page
faults via a pager object, the thread calls Kernel::route_thread_event with
its thread ID, event ID "FAULT", and the signal context ID of the pager object.
If a pager activation wants to start handling page faults of a pager object,
the pager activation assigns the corresponding signal context to its signal
receiver. If a pager activation wants to stop handling page faults of a pager
object, the pager activation dissolves the corresponding signal context from
its signal receiver. If a thread wants to start communicating its page faults
via a pager object, the thread calls Kernel::route_thread_event with its
thread ID, event ID "FAULT", and the invalid signal context ID.
Remove Kernel::resume_faulter.
Move all page fault related code from generic kernel sources to CPU
specific cpu_support.h and cpu_support.cc.
fix#935
This patch moves the implementation of the 'Arm::memory_region_attr'
function from the generic ARM code to the ARM v6/v7 specific code
to enable the customization of page-table bits depending on the
specific CPU core type. I.e., the ARM1176 apparently does not cope
well with setting the 'Tex::bits(2)' for MMIO mappings.
This patch eliminates calls of 'cmpxchg' prior enabling the MMU. This is
needed because the 'ldrex' and 'strex' instructions do not always work
with MMU and L1 cache disabled, i.e., on Raspberry Pi.
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.
