A number of simplifications of mailboxes now that the interface is much
simpler, and synchronous.
* call and respond can now only transfer one handle at a time
* mailbox objects got rid of the message queue, and just have
wait_queues of blocked threads, and a reply_to map.
* threads now have a message_data struct on them for use by mailboxes
In preparation for the new mailbox IPC model, blocking threads needed an
overhaul. The `wait_on_*` and `wake_on_*` methods are gone, and the
`block()` and `wake()` calls on threads now pass a value between the
waker and the blocked thread.
As part of this change, the concept of signals on the base kobject class
was removed, along with the queue of blocked threads waiting on any
given object. Signals are now exclusively the domain of the event object
type, and the new wait_queue utility class helps manage waiting threads
when an object does actually need this functionality. In some cases (eg,
logger) an event object is used instead of the lower-level wait_queue.
Since this change has a lot of ramifications, this large commit includes
the following additional changes:
- The j6_object_wait, j6_object_wait_many, and j6_thread_pause syscalls
have been removed.
- The j6_event_clear syscall has been removed - events are "cleared" by
reading them now. A new j6_event_wait syscall has been added to read
events.
- The generic close() method on kobject has been removed.
- The on_no_handles() method on kobject now deletes the object by
default, and needs to be overridden by classes that should not be.
- The j6_system_bind_irq syscall now takes an event handle, as well as a
signal that the IRQ should set on the event. IRQs will cause a waiting
thread to be woken with the appropriate bit set.
- Threads waking due to timeout is simplified to just having a
wake_timeout() accessor that returns a timestamp.
- The new wait_queue uses util::deque, which caused the disovery of two
bugs in the deque implementation: empty deques could still have a
single array allocated and thus return true for empty(), and new
arrays getting allocated were not being zeroed first.
- Exposed a new erase() method on util::map that takes a node pointer
instead of a key, skipping lookup.
