This patch simplifies the way of how Genode's base libraries are
organized. Originally, the base API was implemented in the form of many
small libraries such as 'thread', 'env', 'server', etc. Most of them
used to consist of only a small number of files. Because those libraries
are incorporated in any build, the checking of their inter-dependencies
made the build process more verbose than desired. Also, the number of
libraries and their roles (core only, non-core only, shared by both core
and non-core) were not easy to capture.
Hereby, the base libraries have been reduced to the following few
libraries:
- startup.mk contains the startup code for normal Genode processes.
On some platform, core is able to use the library as well.
- base-common.mk contains the parts of the base library that are
identical by core and non-core processes.
- base.mk contains the complete base API implementation for non-core
processes
Consequently, the 'LIBS' declaration in 'target.mk' files becomes
simpler as well. In the most simple case, only the 'base' library must
be mentioned.
Fixes#18
Add functionality to lookup an object and lock it. Additional the case is
handled that a object may be already in-destruction and the lookup will deny
returning the object.
The object_pool generalize the lookup and lock functionality of the rpc_server
and serve as base for following up patches to fix dangling pointer issues.
This patch increases the stack size of entrypoint threads in the PCI and
PS/2 drivers, in the Terminal server and in the Signal service for 64-bit
Genode/Fiasco.OC built with -O0.
Fixes#198.
