We moved initial list of a pager's caps from ktcb to task's space
since the task is expected to trust its space.
Most references to task->cap_list had to change. Although a single
cap list only tells part of the story about the task's caps, the
TASK_CAP_LIST macro works for us to get the first private set of
caps that a task has.
Capability checking for thread_control, exregs, mutex, cap_control,
ipc, and map system calls.
The visualised model is implemented in code that compiles, but
actual functionality hasn't been tested.
Need to add:
- Dynamic assignment of initial resources matching with what's
defined in the configuration.
- A paged-thread-group, since that would be a logical group of
seperation from a capability point-of-view.
- Resource ids for various tasks. E.g.
- Memory capabilities don't have target resources.
- Thread capability assumes current container for THREAD_CREATE.
- Mutex syscall assumes current thread (this one may not need
any changing)
- cap_control syscall assumes current thread. It may happen to
be that another thread's capability list is manipulated.
Last but not least:
- A simple and easy-to-use userspace library for dynamic expansion
of resource domains as new resources are created such as threads.
Pagers can now share their own private capabilities with their
paged children, or their siblings with whom they have a common pager
ancestor.
Added flags CAP_SHARE_CHILD and CAP_SHARE_SIBLINGS for that.
Notion of pager hierarchy introduced using the existing but unused
pagerid field.
Thread creation now has two more flags TC_AS_PAGER and TC_SHARE_PAGER.
The former sets creator as pager, the latter sets creator's pager as pager.
Thread group capability sharing now correctly carries shared capabilities
to the thread group leader's tgr_cap_list list, and this list is checked
during capability checking.
Capabilities will be shared among collection of threads. A pager
will have a right to share its own capabilities with its space,
its thread group and its container.
Currently sharing is possible with only all of the caps. Next,
it will be support for cap splitting, granting, and partial sharing
and granting.
