Hi all, I'm working on the SOS example of the AOS course, trying to adapt code that used to work under the non-MCS kernel to the now used MCS kernel.
So far, this mostly works. However, I'm having problems in resuming a thread that is blocked in an IPC Call operation. In simple cases where the server can reply immediately, the thread is successfully unblocked, simply by replying to the reply object as with the reply capability in the non-MCS kernel. However, if the server does not respond immediately, (i.e. it leaves the calling thread in blocked state, serves some other requests and/or notifications in the meantime, then comes back to reply), replying to the reply object silently fails to unblock the thread for some reason. In the non-MCS kernel, it was necessary in these cases to save the reply capability in a cspace. Therefore I tried to similarly copy/move the reply object to a thread-specific cspace slot, but that doesn't help. I'm sure I'm missing something very basic here. Can anybody point me to the right direction?
