Norman Feske 6d837c9e26 Attach affinity information to session requests This patch extends the 'Parent::session()' and 'Root::session()' functions with an additional 'affinity' parameter, which is inteded to express the preferred affinity of the new session. For CPU sessions provided by core, the values will be used to select the set of CPUs assigned to the CPU session. For other services, the session affinity information can be utilized to optimize the locality of the server thread with the client. For example, to enable the IRQ session to route an IRQ to the CPU core on which the corresponding device driver (the IRQ client) is running.		2013-08-13 17:08:25 +02:00

README

This is generic part of the Genode implementation. It consists of two parts:

:_Core_: is the ultimate root of the Genode application tree
  and provides abstractions for the lowest-level hardware resources
  such as RAM, ROM, CPU, and generic device access. All generic parts of Core
  can be found here - for system-specific implementations refer to the
  appropriate 'base-<system>' directory.

:_Base libraries and protocols_: that are used by each Genode component
  to interact with other components. This is the glue that holds everything
  together.
