Alexander Boettcher ae6257dce1 Use NOVA microkernel from github, add 64bit
Use git to get recent kernels from github. Adjust NOVA patch to compile
with recent github version. Patch and use makefile of NOVA microkernel
to avoid duplicated (and outdated) makefile in Genode

Furthermore, this patch adds support for using NOVA on x86_64. The
generic part of the syscall bindings has been moved to
'base-nova/include/nova/syscall-generic.h'. The 32/64-bit specific
parts are located at 'base-nova/include/32bit/nova/syscalls.h' and
'base-nova/include/64bit/nova/syscalls.h' respectively.

On x86_64, the run environment boots qemu using the Pulsar boot loader
because GRUB legacy does not support booting 64bit ELF executables.

In addition to the NOVA-specific changes in base-nova, this patch
rectifies compile-time warnings or build errors in the 'ports' and
'libports' repositories that are related to NOVA x86_64 (i.e., Vancouver
builds for 32bit only and needed an adaptation to NOVAs changed
bindings)

Fixes #233, fixes #234

This directory contains tools for managing and using the source code
of Genode.

:'create_builddir'

  The 'create_builddir' tool provides a convenient way to create build
  directories for different platforms. Its usage information is printed when
  starting the tool without arguments.

:'builddir/':

  This directory contains a Makefile template and configuration snippets used
  by the 'create_builddir' tool.

:'tool_chain':

  This tool downloads, builds, and installs the tool chain needed to build the
  Genode OS Framework. For getting usage information, start the tool without
  arguments.

:'create_iso':

  This simple tool helps to build bootable ISO images from your build of
  Genode. For getting usage information, start the tool without arguments.

:'beautify':

  Beautify is a coding-style checking tool that analyzes source code for its
  adherence to Genode's coding style as described in 'doc/coding_style.txt'.
  Whenever possible, the tool tries to fix the issues and outputs a corrected
  file.  Some corrections, however, require human interaction.  In this case,
  the tool stops the analysis with an error.

:'parse_cxx':

  This tool is a C++ parser used as front-end for Beautify.

:'cxx_to_html':

  This tool converts a C++ source file to a HTML view to be used for the API
  documentation at the genode.org website. It relies on 'parse_cxx' to do the
  actual C++ parsing.

:'fix_include_ifndef':

  This tool helps with assigning consistent include guards to header files.

:'boot':

  This directory contains boot-loader files needed to create boot images.

:'autopilot':

  Autopilot is a tool for the automatic execution of run scripts among multiple
  base platforms.
