Announcement: Genode OS Framework version 19.08 released
by Norman Feske 28 Aug '19

28 Aug '19

I am happy to announce the release of Genode version 19.08. The summer release is dedicated to topics important for the practical use of Genode and Sculpt OS. Topics like keyboard-layout handling, system-time management, secure copy and paste, or dealing with a captive portal when joining a public WiFi network can safely be ignored when building proof of concepts or tech demos but they are vital for real-world use. Hence, we put them into focus. Among the further highlights of version 19.08 are the base-hw kernel running on 64-bit ARM, networking on i.MX8, a new tracing tool, Qt5 version 5.13, SMBIOS support, and enhanced POSIX compatibility. The full picture is presented by the official release documentation: https://genode.org/documentation/release-notes/19.08 The list of topics at a glimpse: - Flexible keyboard layouts - Custom kernel for 64-bit ARM and NXP i.MX8 - i.MX8 network driver - Accessing SMBIOS tables on x86 - New tooling for light-weight tracing - General system time concept - Clipboard handling - SSH exec channel support - Qt5 version 5.13 - Updated Ada/SPARK runtime - Disposable VM for handling captive portals - Consolidation of the C runtime and Noux Enjoy exploring the new release!

Debugging without GDB - stack print?
by Alexander Tormasov 26 Aug '19

26 Aug '19

Hi! While I am new on genode/sel4, I encounter traditional problem with app debug. I finally make iso image on my Golang test application. I use noux_fork.run as prototype, replacing fork for my test-go: <start name="noux" caps="500"> <resource name="RAM" quantum="1G"/> <config verbose="yes" stdin="/null" stdout="/log" stderr="/log"> <fstab> <null/> <log/> <rom name="test-go" /> </fstab> <start name="test-go"> </start> </config> </start> As usual, it is failed on first start accessing 0 address: …. virtual address layout of core: overall [0000000000002000,0000000200000000) core image [0000000002000000,0000000003805000) ipc buffer [0000000003805000,0000000003806000) boot_info [0000000003806000,0000000003808000) stack area [0000000040000000,0000000050000000) ….

And symbols? I found only something like test-go file, which I can read using readelf -s… How to correspond pf_ip=0xa95b1 dress with code? good idea is ti be able to print a calls stack at some point (may be with abort) - how I can do this?

sigaltstack support with kernel seL4
by Alexander Tormasov 22 Aug '19

22 Aug '19

Do Genode (in particular, on seL4 kernel) support sigaltstack function? I found its description in signal.h while it is unresolved during linking, and my search in libs did not give any results. As I understand, it should be in libc? I found it in depot/genodelabs/api/libc/2019-07-08/include/libc/signal.h While no references to function body…

by guo minskey 21 Aug '19

21 Aug '19

Hi, all, Is there any guide to build an ISO for seL4/genode for x86_64 platform ? I am new to Genode. I downloaded an ISO ( built by alex ??), which works in qemu-kvm, but doesn't work on my Intel NUC hardware. I want to take a look into it and see if I can enable it on my hardware. But for the first step, I have to know how to build an ISO. thanks in advance, -minskey

Keyboard not working in Sculpt CE
by Stefan 18 Aug '19

18 Aug '19

Hello there, I'm playing around with the Sculpt CE Virtual Box Image on my computer (AMD Ryzen Desktop PC with USB Keyboard). The Keyboard is a Cherry USB Keyboard. Hitting F12 results in activating/deactivating the Leitzentrale Overlay, but all other keystrokes are not accepted (in noux shell and Qt5 Text Edit). Any ideas? Thank you! Stefan

Beginner question / running demo

Hello there, after some time of abstinence, I tried to build sculpt-19.07 <https://github.com/genodelabs/genode/releases/tag/sculpt-19.07> by cloning the repo. Following the orders in doc/getting_started.txt I installed the prebuilt toolchain and created a build dir per cd <genode-dir> ./tool/create_builddir x86_64 After that I wanted to run the demo per: cd build/x86_64 make KERNEL=linux run/demo but failed with: schelm@ubuntu:~/Development/genode/build/x86_64$ make KERNEL=linux run/demo including /home/schelm/Development/genode/tool/run/power_on/qemu including /home/schelm/Development/genode/tool/run/log/qemu including /home/schelm/Development/genode/tool/run/image/iso including /home/schelm/Development/genode/tool/run/boot_dir/linux including /home/schelm/Development/genode/repos/os/run/demo.run building targets: app/status_bar test/nitpicker spawn make app/status_bar test/nitpicker make[1]: Verzeichnis „/home/schelm/Development/genode/build/x86_64“ wird betreten checking library dependencies...

Java and VFS on different kernels
by Roman Iten 12 Aug '19

12 Aug '19

I'm experimenting with the cool feature of running Java applications introduced in Genode 19.02. I created a run script (= "copied java.run and made some minor changes") that builds and integrates a trivial Java example (check prime) [1]. It works as expected for BOARD=linux and KERNEL=linux. But for BOARD=pc and KERNEL=[hw|nova] it doesn't. Actually, I have two issues I don't understand: 1. Java cannot load the jar file: [init -> java] Error: Invalid or corrupt jarfile app.jar A workaround is to pack it into a tar file and mount it accordingly into the VFS. 2. Reading the numbers from stdin leads to: no RM attachment (READ pf_addr=0x5617b8 pf_ip=0x49a10 from pager_object: pd='init -> java' thread='pthread') Warning: page fault, pager_object: pd='init -> java' thread='pthread' ip=0x49a10 fault-addr=0x5617b8 type=no-page no RM attachment (READ pf_addr=0x4e6838 pf_ip=0x276e23f from pager_object: pd='init -> java' thread='pthread') Warning: page fault, pager_object: pd='init -> java' thread='pthread' ip=0x276e23f fault-addr=0x4e6838 type=no-page no RM attachment (WRITE pf_addr=0x49d300 pf_ip=0x82a79 from pager_object: pd='init -> java' thread='alarm-timer') Warning: page fault, pager_object: pd='init -> java' thread='alarm-timer' ip=0x82a79 fault-addr=0x49d300 type=write-fault I would have expected the run script to be platform independent. Can someone explain why it isn't? Thanks, Roman [1] https://github.com/rite/genode-world/commit/84e72ed8433114b9c0624ed1f55aeff…

Genode Community Summer - Invitation
by Martin Stein 12 Aug '19

12 Aug '19

Recently, several requests reached us at Genode Labs from people interested in coming to Dresden for a certain period of time to work on their Genode project while beeing able to seek our assistance in person. To give this idea a dedicated space, Genode Labs will hold a new event, the "Genode Community Summer" this year. *** For whom? *** The gathering is open for everyone of the Genode community. Each participant should have a concrete project to pursue during the time and be able work on this project independently most of the time. Unlike a commercial offered workshop, there won't be any lecture or intensive coaching, but simply co-working in an informal and friendly setting. During the day, people of our team would also work there so that participants can seek our assistance at any time. Please note that anything confidential should better be left at home! This way, we can accommodate people with different backgrounds at the same time while the event bears potential for networking effects among different community members. *** Where? *** The event will take place in the lower floor of the Genode Labs office, Friedrichstraße 26, 01067 Dresden, Germany. Note, that lodging is up to each participant individually. *** When? *** Over two weeks from 16th to 27th of September 2019. It is possible to participate only for a part of this time. *** How to register? *** Each participant must register in advance since our space is limited but the event will be at no cost. Please register via mail to the mailing list or martin.stein(a)genode-labs.com. We will hold the event only if at least 4 people register until end of August. We will inform all participants through the mailing list as soon as we have 4 registrations. Your registration must contain a brief description of the project you're planning to pursue during the gathering. Please also add whether you like to participate for the whole two weeks, and if not, which part of that time you will participate. If you have further questions regarding the Genode Community Summer, please don't hesitate to ask directly (martin.stein(a)genode-labs.com) or at the mailing list. Hope to see you there!

jdk_generated: creating a classes.tar file
by Duss Pirmin 09 Aug '19

09 Aug '19

Hello Genodians I'm currently porting jtreg to Genode, so that I can run regression tests for Java. This requires some .class files that aren't currently in the classes.tar from the jdk_generated port. Is there a short description, on how this file was created, so I can create an other version of this file? Best regards, Pirmin
