Has anyone had success with GCC SVN/4.7
by Taru Karttunen 04 Sep '12

04 Sep '12

Hello I was hacking around gccgo (go implementation in gcc) and I can get the runtime and the compiler compiled when using gcc-4.7-RC-20120314. But the issue becomes rest of Genode not liking a newer gcc. Has anyone else had success with either GCC 4.7 or a SVN version of GCC? My current issue is: Library libc MERGE libc.lib.so fd_alloc.o: In function `Libc::file_descriptor_allocator()': /home/taruti/genohack/genode/libports/src/lib/libc/fd_alloc.cc:26: undefined reference to `__dso_handle' /usr/local/genode-gcc/bin/genode-x86-ld: fd_alloc.o: relocation R_X86_64_PC32 against undefined hidden symbol `__dso_handle' can not be used when making a shared object Has anyone got an idea how to solve this? ps. if someone is trying this, one has to compile libsupc++ explicitely with -fPIC to get cxx working. - Taru Karttunen

livecd + full OS
by syd bris 03 Sep '12

hi, my interest in genode would be to be able to use it on top of a linux system to run other OS's securely in a virtualised environment. some questions when will the next live cd be available? will genode be able to perform any better, or provide any better security, than other virtualisation softwares like vmware and xen? How do you plan to eventually release a "fully functional general-purpose OS" when the genode code is so small, and it is mainly a userland project? thanks

Qt port based on QPA
by Robert Campbell 03 Sep '12

Qt platform abstraction layer provides a simpler and easier to maintain method of porting Qt to other platforms. Are there plans to upgrade the current Qt port in Genode to make use of the Qt platform abstraction layer?
