This is a *breaking API change*
This commit:
* makes seL4_Fault_tag_t common between the kernel and libsel4
* deprecates the existing functions from sel4/messages.h includes
* introduces a new fault API in sel4/faults.h and
* sel4/sel4_arch/faults.h
* deprecates seL4_GetTag(), as the function did not work without
the user calling seL4_SetTag() first (seL4_MessageInfo is passed
in registers and not set in the IPC buffer)
* removes previously deprecated functions (deprecated prior to 3.0.0)
* updates the seL4 manual to reflect the changes
benchmark.h requires a definition of KS_LOG_PPTR, but its previous
placement in machine.h resulted in a circular include. This commit
factors out KS_LOG_PPTR and related definitions to a separate header,
creates the corresponding header for x86, and prevents circular
includes in the x86 builds
Where MCP = Maximum Controlled Priority
This commit adds:
* seL4_TCB_SetMCPriority
and changes the arguments to
* seL4_TCB_Configure
As of this commit, a thread cannot create or set a threads
priority (including itself) above its mcp. Previously the kernel
did this check against a threads priority, which prevented a thread
from setting it's own priority down and then up again.
Previously the return value of cap_get_capPtr was compared to 0 in
sameRegionAs to emulate a check in the abstract specification that
tests if the cap is a physical cap or not. Overloading 0 results
in a scenario where a legitimate deviceUntyped's children do not
get considered to be children because they have a capPtr of 0.
This change adds and explicit function that returns whether or not
a capability is physical or not, and uses that in sameRegionAs
