We haven't ported everything. Just the top-level methods. We'll
dig in to the leaf stuff later. Surprisingly, this all went without
any real difficulties.
Runs like a charm on first try.
This now ensures that finalizeReq is indeed called from mrntt,
since exception-experiencing threads will post an exceptionInd
to mrntt, which will then call finalizeReq.
Async: Use new [Non]PostedAsyncCont and callOriginalCb
This new hierarchy of classes gives us a central mechanism for
managing both reply-posting and lockSpec unlocking.
* callOriginalCb: Now uses a modern C++ variadic template design
enabling it to handle both direct calling and std::bind()
re-binding of an arbitrary number of arguments from the caller.
This enables us to mostly eliminate the repeated, bespoke
definitions of callOriginalCb littered throughout the codebase.
We've also propagated these changes throughout the codebase in
this patch.
This makes the initialization sequence much cleaner and conceptually
well encapsulated.
We also now dynamically allocate the Mind objects. They're allocated
dynamically by Mrntt inside of initializeReq. This means that we no
longer have to worry about jolting and cleaning up the running threads
of global mind object even when we never explicitly called
Mind.initializeReq.
Along with other conceptual improvements to our abstractions, this
patch also gets us to a real "end of program initialization" point
for the first time.
