1. Introduce channels, which provide an efficient means for IPC;
2. Leverage channels to rewrite pipe, improving the performance (3X),
robustness, and readability.
This pipe rewrite is not done: some more commits will be added to
implement poll and epoll for pipe.
An event can be anything ranging from the exit of a process (interesting
to `wait4`) to the arrival of a blocked signal (interesting to
`sigwaitinfo`), from the completion of a file operation (interesting to
`epoll`) to the change of a file status (interesting to `inotify`).
To meet the event-related demands from various subsystems, this event
subsystem is designed to provide a set of general-purpose primitives:
* `Waiter`, `Waker`, and `WaiterQueue` are primitives to put threads
to sleep and later wake them up.
* `Event`, `Observer`, and `Notifier` are primitives to handle and
broadcast events.
* `WaiterQueueObserver` implements the common pattern of waking up
threads once some interesting events happen.
Socket-related ocalls, e.g, sendto, sendmsg and write, may cause SIGPIPE
in host. Since the ocall is called by libos, this kind of signal should
be handled in libos. We ignore SIGPIPE in host and raise the same signal
in libos if the return value of the above ocalls is EPIPE. In this way
the signal is handled by libos.
This commit mainly accomplish two things:
1. Use makefile to manage dependencies for `occlum build`, which can save lots of time
2. Take dirs `build`, `run` outside from `.occlum`. Remove env var "OCCLUM_INSTANCE_DIR"
Rlimit are now on the same page of memory space limits defined in Occlum.json. Specific
memory size configuration can be set to child process with `prlimit` syscall or using `ulimit`
command in shell script.
Struct sigaction has a field named sa_mask, which specifies the blocked
signals while executing the signal handler. Previously, this field is not
supported. This commit adds this missing feature.
There are scenarios where the available CPUs are less than all the CPUs
on the machine. Therefore, sched_get/setaffinity should be allowed when
the input buffer size is no less than the available CPUs but less than
all the CPUs.
