Detailed Description

A registry that manages server objects and their attached IPC gates for a single server loop for a specific thread.

This class manages most of the setup of a server object. If necessary, an IPC gate is created, the specified thread is bound to the IPC gate. Incoming IPC is dispatched to the server object based on the label of the IPC gate.

The object registry is also able to manage IRQ endpoints. They require a different method for the object creation. Otherwise they are handled in the same way as IPC gates: a server object is responsible to process the incoming interrupts.

Constructor & Destructor Documentation

◆ Object_registry() [1/2]

L4Re::Util::Object_registry::Object_registry ( L4::Ipc_svr::Server_iface sif)
inlineexplicit

Create a registry for the main thread of the task using the default factory.

Parameters
sifServer loop interface.

Definition at line 78 of file object_registry.

◆ Object_registry() [2/2]

L4Re::Util::Object_registry::Object_registry ( L4::Ipc_svr::Server_iface sif,
L4::Cap< L4::Thread server,
L4::Cap< L4::Factory factory 
)
inline

Create a registry for arbitrary threads.

Parameters
sifServer loop interface.
serverCapability to the thread that executes the server objects.
factoryCapability to a factory object capable of creating new IPC gates.

Definition at line 92 of file object_registry.

Member Function Documentation

◆ register_irq_obj()

L4::Cap< L4::Irq > L4Re::Util::Object_registry::register_irq_obj ( L4::Epiface o)
inlineoverridevirtual

Register a handler for an interrupt.

Parameters
oServer object that handles IRQs.
Return values
L4::Cap<L4::Irq>Capability to a new IRQ object on success.
L4::Cap<L4::Irq>::InvalidThe allocation of the IRQ has failed.

The IRQ will be newly allocated using the registry's factory object. The caller must call unregister_obj() to free all resources.

Implements L4::Registry_iface.

Examples
examples/libs/l4re/c++/shared_ds/ds_srv.cc.

Definition at line 238 of file object_registry.

◆ register_obj() [1/3]

L4::Cap< void > L4Re::Util::Object_registry::register_obj ( L4::Epiface o)
inlineoverridevirtual

Register a new server object on a newly allocated capability.

Parameters
oServer object that handles IPC requests.
Return values
L4::Cap<void>A valid capability to a new IPC gate.
L4::Cap<void>::InvalidThe allocation of the IPC gate has failed.

The IPC gate will be allocated using the registry's factory. The caller must call unregister_obj() to free all resources.

Implements L4::Registry_iface.

Definition at line 222 of file object_registry.

◆ register_obj() [2/3]

L4::Cap< void > L4Re::Util::Object_registry::register_obj ( L4::Epiface o,
char const *  service 
)
inlineoverridevirtual

Register a new server object to a pre-allocated receive endpoint.

Parameters
oServer object that handles IPC requests.
serviceName of a pre-allocated receive endpoint.
Return values
L4::Cap<void>The capability known as service on success.
L4::Cap<void>::InvalidNo capability with the given name found.

The interface must be freed with unregister_obj() by the caller to unbind the thread from the capability.

Implements L4::Registry_iface.

Examples
examples/clntsrv/server.cc, examples/libs/l4re/c++/shared_ds/ds_srv.cc, and examples/libs/l4re/streammap/server.cc.

Definition at line 205 of file object_registry.

◆ register_obj() [3/3]

L4::Cap< L4::Rcv_endpoint > L4Re::Util::Object_registry::register_obj ( L4::Epiface o,
L4::Cap< L4::Rcv_endpoint ep 
)
inlineoverridevirtual

Register a handler for an already existing interrupt.

Parameters
oServer object that handles the IPC.
epCapability to a receive endpoint, may be a hardware or software interrupt or an IPC gate.
Return values
L4::Cap<L4::Rcv_endpoint>Capability ep on success.
L4::Cap<L4::Rcv_endpoint>::InvalidThe IRQ attach operation has failed.

The interface must be freed with unregister_obj() by the caller to unbind the thread from the capability.

Implements L4::Registry_iface.

Definition at line 260 of file object_registry.

◆ unregister_obj()

void L4Re::Util::Object_registry::unregister_obj ( L4::Epiface o,
bool  unmap = true 
)
inlineoverridevirtual

Remove a server object from the handler list.

Parameters
oServer object to unbind.
unmapSpecifies if the object capability shall be unmapped (true) or not. The default (true) is to unmap the capability.

The capability used by the server object will be unmapped if unmap is true.

Implements L4::Registry_iface.
