The distinction between Kernel::Thread and Kernel::Thread_base is
unnecessary as currently all Hw platforms would have the same content in
the latter class. Thus I've merged Kernel::Thread_base into
Kernel::Thread. Thereby, Kernel::Thread_event can be moved to
kernel/thread.h.
Ref #1652
Instead of having an ID allocator per object class use one global allocator for
all. Thereby artificial limitations for the different object types are
superfluent. Moreover, replace the base-hw specific id allocator implementation
with the generic Bit_allocator, which is also memory saving.
Ref #1443
* Introduce hw-specific crt0 for core that calls e.g.: init_main_thread
* re-map core's main thread UTCB to fit the right context area location
* switch core's main thread's stack to fit the right context area location
Fix#1440
* 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
Fixes#1405
The build config for core is now provided through libraries to enable
implicit config composition through specifiers and thereby avoid
consideration of inappropriate targets.
fix#1199
This patch changes the top-level directory layout as a preparatory
step for improving the tools for managing 3rd-party source codes.
The rationale is described in the issue referenced below.
