Now that the CBM PFS supports file removal (and a file seek stub) it is possible to have the Telnet server leverage the IDE64 support of the CBM PFS.
Note: Using the CBM PFS for the Telnet server does _not_ reduce the code size since the POSIX I/O functions are additionally still linked in because the POSIX directory functions internally use the POSIX I/O functions. And that's the very reason why the CBM PFS is _not_ activated for the C128 Telnet server: The CBM PFS for the C128 doesn't bring IDE64 support but is supposed to be used to reduce code size - but this isn't possible for the Telnet server.
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.
This patch adds an example program to print out information about the
configuration of the Intel Quark X1000 SoC Isolated Memory Regions
(IMRs), the Host System Management Mode Controls register, and the
Host Memory I/O Boundary register.
This patch adds an example for I2C callbacks that is very similar to
the i2c-LSM9DS0 example except that it uses a PWM device that is built
into the platform.
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.
