e50b73c9b1 galileo: Add support for containerized build environment
This patch adds a Dockerfile for building a container configured as a
build environment for Intel Galileo boards.  This patch also provides
documentation for using the containerized build environment.  Finally, it
streamlines the instructions for booting Contiki on Galileo and includes
other documentation refinements.

3908253038 x86: Add support for (paging-based) protection domains
This patch implements a simple, lightweight form of protection domains
using a pluggable framework.  Currently, the following plugin is
available:

 - Flat memory model with paging.

The overall goal of a protection domain implementation within this
framework is to define a set of resources that should be accessible to
each protection domain and to prevent that protection domain from
accessing other resources.  The details of each implementation of
protection domains may differ substantially, but they should all be
guided by the principle of least privilege.  However, that idealized
principle is balanced against the practical objectives of limiting the
number of relatively time-consuming context switches and minimizing
changes to existing code.

For additional information, please refer to cpu/x86/mm/README.md.

This patch also causes the C compiler to be used as the default linker
and assembler.

93126b57bb x86, galileo: Use IMRs to restrict DMA
This patch configures Isolated Memory Regions (IMRs) to block DMA to
code and data regions that do not contain any data that needs to be
DMA-accessible.

58a00b7c23 x86, galileo: Add driver for Isolated Memory Regions (IMRs)
The Intel Quark X1000 SoC includes support for Isolated Memory Regions
(IMRs), which are specified using range registers and associated
control registers that are accessible via the message bus.  This patch
adds a driver for accessing those registers.

25c07613c2 x86: Add driver for message bus
The Intel Quark X1000 SoC includes a message bus that is accessible
via PCI configuration registers.  It communicates to various SoC
components such as the Isolated Memory Region (IMR) registers and the
Remote Management Unit.  This patch adds a driver for accessing the
message bus.

58874ea25d x86, galileo: Refactor I2C and GPIO initialization
This patch revises the I2C and GPIO initialization code to always be
run during platform boot rather than within each process that requires
it.

This patch also revises the gpio-output example to use a pin that is
set as an output by the default pinmux configuration.  Previously, it
used a pin that was set as an output by the pinmux configuration that
is in effect when the OS does not change the pinmux configuration.

f85654a82f x86, galileo: Add UEFI support
This patch adds support for optionally building EFI binaries in
addition to Multiboot ELF binaries.  It includes a script,
build_uefi.sh, that downloads tool and library sources from the EDK II
project, builds the GenFw tool that is used to create UEFI binaries,
and creates a makefile that is included from the main x86 common
makefile and enables UEFI support in the Contiki build system.  If the
script is not run prior to building Contiki, then an informational
message will be displayed with instructions for running build_uefi.sh
if UEFI support is desired.  This patch also adds the path to the
auto-generated makefile to .gitignore.

This patch modifies the linker script for the Intel Quark X1000 to
account for the output file section offsets and alignment expectations
of the EDK II GenFw project.

This patch also adds a newlib patch to remove the weak symbol
attribute from floating point stdio support routines.  See
<newlib>/newlib/README for an explanation of how the newlib developers
intended for _printf_float and _scanf_float to be linked.  Newlib
declares them as weak symbols with the intention that developers would
force them to be linked only when needed using a linker command line
option.  However, some but not all Contiki programs require them, so
we cannot simply always include or exclude them.  Instead, we remove
the weak symbol attributes and rely on the linker to automatically
determine whether or not they should be linked.  This avoids an issue
in which weak symbols were undefined in the intermediate DLL generated
as part of the UEFI build process.  That resulted in the GenFw program
emitting "ERROR 3000" messages when it encountered relocations
referencing such an undefined symbol.

Finally, this patch updates README.md to both make some revisions to
account for the UART support introduced in previous patches as well as
to provide instructions for using the UEFI support.

38206e3980 galileo: Add Ethernet support
This patch adds support for Ethernet to the Intel Galileo port.  It
uses the Intel Quark X1000 Ethernet driver.  It initializes the first
Ethernet interface and starts some common network services.  By
default, it uses the following addresses:
 - Host: 192.0.2.2
 - Netmask: 255.255.255.0
 - Default gateway: 192.0.2.1
 - DNS server: (same as default gateway)
These settings can be changed by editing eth-conf.c.

0dcd5e9b5a x86: Revise CFLAGS and LDFLAGS for LLVM Clang compatibility
This patch slightly revises CFLAGS and LDFLAGS to specify the
optimization and debugging options and linker script in a way that is
compatible with using Clang as the C compiler and to invoke the linker
(i.e. CC = clang and LD = clang).

06e25c487a galileo: Correct README.md to explain how to verify boot with UART
This patch revises README.md to mention the UART support introduced by
earlier patches in the section about verifying that Contiki is
running.  It also revises the serial console setup instructions to
focus on the more thoroughly tested option.

c9020d95e7 x86: Build release image
This patch adds support for building release images. The main difference
between release images and default images is that the former is optimized
for size while the latter is "optimized" for debugging. To build a release
image, the BUILD_RELEASE variable should be set to 1. For instance, the
following command build a release image from the hello-world application:
$ cd examples/hello-world && make TARGET=galileo BUILD_RELEASE=1

To optimize for size we use the '-Os' option from gcc. This option also
enables the strict aliasing optimization. This generates lots of warning
messages since we use the '-Wall' option and lots of code in core/net/
break the strict-aliasing rules. Some test have shown that the strict
aliasing optimization it not taking effect in the final binary. For that
reasons, this patch manually disables the optimization. Also, the release
image is stripped.

For the sake of comparison, below follows the output from 'wc' and 'size'
for both debugging (default) and release images.

Default image:
$  wc -c hello-world.galileo
71112 hello-world.galileo
$ size hello-world.galileo
   text    data     bss     dec     hex filename
  20379    1188   12808   34375    8647 hello-world.galileo

Release image:
$ wc -c hello-world.galileo
26320 hello-world.galileo
$ size hello-world.galileo
   text    data     bss     dec     hex filename
  18146    1156   12808   32110    7d6e hello-world.galileo

d3d2b51fa2 galileo: Initial stdio support
This patch introduces the initial support for stdio library in Galileo
platform. For now, only standard output and error are supported. Both
streams use the UART1 device.

Newlib doesn't call open() for stdin, stdout, and stderr which means
that the _write_r call is the first activity the stub will see on
those streams. For that reason, we initialize the UART1 device in
Galileo's platform main() function instead of in open() system call.
