Currently, the tid returned from kernel contains container id as
well, which makes it sufficient to do inter-container syscalls without
any preparation.
The helpers added are for presentation purposes only. Container id
is deleted so that the raw thread id is available for printing or
similar.
Thread ids now contain their container ids in the top 2 nibbles.
Threads on other containers can be addressed by changing those
two nibbles. The addressing of inter-container threads are
subject to capabilities.
Issues:
- A page-faulting thread suspends if receives -1 from pager page fault ipc.
This is fine if pager is about to delete the thread, but it is not if
it is a buggy pager.
- Need to find a way to completely get rid of suspended pager.
- A method of deleting suspended tasks could remedy both cases above.
Added UTCB functions for full ipc that copy buffer or string payloads
in secondary message registers.
Some posix syscalls now use these utcb functions to copy pathnames.
