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 directory contains a loader service, which allows for the instantiation of
subsystems via a session interface. The resources for the new subsystem are
provided by the client when opening the session. The client has no control over
the functioning of the subsystem except for the controlling the lifetime of the
subsystem.
