Hello! I'm running netperf TCP_STREAM and TCP_MAERTS tests for lxip stack and i obtained extremely low result - 5x10^6 bits/s while the maximum throughput is 1000 mbit/s . I wonder what could be the reason for that. Anna

Re: Genode Hack'n Hike 2013
by Norman Feske 23 Mar '15

23 Mar '15

Hello everyone, the date for this year's Genode Hack'n Hike held during 11-16 of September is approaching. Genode's developers will spend those days in the beautiful scenery of the Bohemian Switzerland, relaxing, hiking, and hacking on fun side projects. The Hack'n Hike will be the perfect setting for getting involved with the community, catching up, or just hanging out with the Genode crowd. There is still room for more participants. Genode Labs sponsors the event. So your participation/accommodation is free. If you like to join in, please get in touch by writing to hacknhike@...1... or commenting on https://github.com/genodelabs/genode/issues/793.

Announcement: Genode OS Framework version 14.02 released
by Christian Helmuth 05 Mar '14

05 Mar '14

Just now, we released a fresh version of Genode, which focuses on storage and virtualization. With this release, we bring block-device access and file-system support on the next level paving the way to use Genode as general-purpose OS. The port of VirtualBox adds support for a wide range of guest OSes (including MS Windows) to the long history of virtualization on Genode. The main features and improvements of the current release are: - VirtualBox running on the NOVA microhypervisor - Base framework - Improved stack management - Storage - NetBSD file systems ported via rump kernels - Revised block-driver framework - New block cache - New FUSE-based NTFS-3g support - Ported e2fsprogs to the Noux runtime - Low-level OS infrastructure - New pseudo file system as tracing front end - Unified interfaces for graphics - New status-reporting mechanism - Nitpicker support for dynamic screen resizing - Libraries and applications - Extended Noux runtime with POSIX signals - Dynamic ROM service - Platforms - Basic support ODROID XU More details about version 14.02 can be found in the release documentation here http://genode.org/documentation/release-notes/14.02 Happy hacking with Genode -- Christian Helmuth Genode Labs http://www.genode-labs.com/ · http://genode.org/ https://twitter.com/GenodeLabs · /ˈdʒiː.nəʊd/ Genode Labs GmbH · Amtsgericht Dresden · HRB 28424 · Sitz Dresden Geschäftsführer: Dr.-Ing.

Genode System Architecture and Configuration Questions,
by J. M. Becker 28 Feb '14

28 Feb '14

Hi Genode Engineers. I've been following the Genode project for a few years, and I'm very excited about it's progress. I've worked through some of the build instructions, and read most of the documentation on the website. I've been able to test out various run files, and I want to begin porting some stuff. I just have a few questions, which would help me understand how you envision the system level considerations. 1. Do any library level diagrams or flowcharts exist? Specifically to describe at which point various pieces funnel together? Maybe something with details comparable to Linux_Graphics_Stack_2013.svg<http://upload.wikimedia.org/wikipedia/commons/c/c2/Linux_Graphics_Stack_201…> ? 2. How are shared configuration files handled? For example, system level configurations often found in /etc? Thanks Everyone, -J.

Re: Method definitions for session interfaces
by Meenakshi Narayanan 25 Feb '14

25 Feb '14

Hello, As far as the session interfaces are concerned, the framework is very intricately designed (hats off). Connection->Client->Capability->Session. If I want to call a function defined by the session interface, one has to include the <session_name>/connection.h and make a call which then calls the Rpc_functionName. My question is this: Where is the body of such functions defined? Is there a framework that dictates where the body of the function goes? More specifically, this doubt came up when exploring the Attached_io_mem_dataspace which contains a function called dataspace(). Recently, my friend Aditya posted this<http://sourceforge.net/mailarchive/forum.php?thread_name=CANhviG0%3DKY2%3D%…> and it gave the error 'No RM attachment', which is found in the function print_page_fault defined in util.h. My assertion is that a component that uses the MMIO class initlaiised with this dataspace().local_addr() rather than the physical address itself. Long story short, what could have caused this page fault? Thanks in advance, Meenakshi.

Trying to boot run/demo on i.MX6
by Aditya Kousik 20 Feb '14

20 Feb '14

Hello all, Continuing on our efforts to provide a Genode port to Freescale i.MX6, we tried running the demo scenario by simply porting the extensive i.MX53 driver written by Stefan; i.MX6 is merely an upgrade but it still uses same IPU defs, except for different address spaces for the registers which were appropriately modified. A subsequent compilation and boot of the image resulted in the following error: Any thoughts on how to tackle ? [init -> fb_drv] Could not open file "config" [init -> fb_drv] Could not obtain config file no RM attachment (faulter 1059508c with IP 1000861c attempts to write to address 244000) unknown signal context Thanks and Regards Aditya.

Runtime verbosity
by Aditya Kousik 13 Feb '14

13 Feb '14

Hello I get the usage of make VERBOSE_MK= VERBOSE_DIR= VERBOSE= during the build process. But is there any terminal level verbosity option? The closest I've got to, is in the configuration of the init process, by specifying 'verbose="yes"' in the config node. Is there much deeper verbose output such as function calls and argument list printing? Thanks and regards Aditya.

FOSDEM microkernel dinner
by Julian Stecklina 13 Feb '14

13 Feb '14

Hello fellow microkernel hackers, for those of you at FOSDEM: Some of us want to meet up for dinner tonight. I suggest we meet on Grand Place / Grote Markt at 20:30. This should leave everyone enough time to drop off their stuff at the hotel and get to the city center. Julian

FOSDEM '14
by Aditya Kousik 10 Feb '14

10 Feb '14

Hello We're unfortunately 8000 km away from Brussels and we missed the microkernel devroom livestream videos. Is there a recorded version of Stefan's lecture on Genode and TrustZone virtualization? The slides from the FOSDEM site only speak so much. Thanks and regards Aditya.

Just an idea about virtualbox
by Lonnie Cumberland 09 Feb '14

09 Feb '14

Greetings All, I hope that you are all doing well today. My learning is proceeding well with regards to NOVA and Genode. I truly do like this work and am excited to start doing more as I get better familiarized with the inner-workings. My particular interest is with NOVA + Genode + Seoul (or similar VMM) for various work that I am looking into at the moment. With that in mind, a thought had occurred to me and I wanted to ask the group for your thoughts in this area. As you know, there are a number of other open source hypervisors (Type 1 and Type 2) with on of them being Virtualbox (Oracle) that runs well as a Type 2 hypervisor. My understanding is that Virtualbox is also reasonably easy to port to other platforms as well. The power of Virtualbox is that it is very mature at this point and I was wondering. Would there be an advantage to have Virtualbox ported to Genode to run under NOVA? The idea is that since it is already fairly mature, then perhaps it might make a very stable and suitable VMM (in place of Seoul) so that Genode (under NOVA) could run general purposes commodity OS's like Windows and Linux. I am sure that this would be a lot of work, but it seems that that might be an interesting idea. Any comments? Kind Regards and have a great day, Lonnie
