Currently in the networking sub-system it is common to see snippets of code like this:
if (notify_tx&&net_require_signal(state.tx_queue.active)) {
net_cancel_signal(state.tx_queue.active);
notify_tx= false;
if (!have_signal) microkit_notify_delayed(TX_CH);
elseif (signal_cap!=BASE_OUTPUT_NOTIFICATION_CAP+TX_CH) microkit_notify(TX_CH);
}
have_signal and signal_cap are Microkit globals that should not be accessed by user-code and we also do things like BASE_OUTPUT_NOTIFICATION_CAP + TX_CH.
The root issue is that the Microkit API is lacking regarding delayed/deferred IRQ acks/notifies.
Opening this issue so that we remember to update sDDF once Microkit figures out the API. We should also update any projects that might have this pattern as well such as LionsOS and libvmm.
