[Minios-devel] [UNIKRAFT PATCH v4 0/3] Introduce Unikraft system constructors

[Vlad-Andrei BĂDOIU (78692) <vlad_andrei.badoiu@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxx>]

This patch introduces a new type of constructors for the unikraft 
internal libraries. The old constructors are now used as 
application constructors (eg. for the C++ standard library) and 
called before entering main.

This patch is based on a the work done by Simon Kuenzer from
here [1].

This patch series adds an array called ukplat_ctortab to the
Unikraft binaries. This array is NULL-terminated and contains
function pointers to constructors. It is populated during link
time.

Libraries can register a function to it by using the new macro
called UK_CTOR_FUNC (provided with include/uk/ctors.h).

Changes from v1:
*) Changed to least and highest in ctors.h
*) Added support for the constructors un linuxu
*) Solved checkpatch errors introduced by the patch

Changes from v2:
*) Solved checkpatch issues in virtio_bus.h and
xenbus.h
*) Renamed /linuxu/arm/link64.lds to link.lds
*) Changed from CONFIG_ARCH_X86_64 to
CONFIG_ARCH_ARM_32
*) Moved application constructors at the beginning of
main_thread_func

Changes from v3:
*) Solved checkpath errors in plat/linuxu/arm/link.lds
and plat/linuxu/x86/link64.lds
*) Moved pre-init calls in main_thread_func before 
application constructor calls
