Github Links Point to 23.05 in the Genode Foundations 25.05 Book (HTML version)
by Rumen Mitov 08 Aug '25

08 Aug '25

Hi, I noticed that the GitHub links in the Genode Foundations Book (version 25.05, HTML) are pointing to the 23.05 branch instead of 25.05. This caused some confusion on my end when cross-referencing the documentation with the code. Just wanted to bring this to the community's attention in case others encounter the same issue. Best, Rumen

Tool For Generating Hash For Archive?
by Rumen Mitov 05 Aug '25

05 Aug '25

Hi, A quick question: is there a specific tool I am supposed to use to generate the hash of my archive? Also, do I hash the content.mk file or the TAR of the src/ directory of my project (or something else entirely)? I tried the tools from the Genode Foundations book: <genode-dir>/tool/depot/build, <genode-dir>/tool/depot/create, and <genode-dir>/tool/depot/extract. However, all of them require a hash file to be present. Best, Rumen

Region Map's Permission Difficulties
by Rumen Mitov 25 Jul '25

25 Jul '25

Hi, I have been having some trouble with the Region Map interface not setting the correct permissions in my specified memory region. I am trying to replicate a similar functionality to rm_nested: ```cpp const addr_t OBJECT_SPACE_START = 0x80000000; const addr_t OBJECT_SPACE_SIZE = 0x40000000; Genode::Env &_env; Genode::Rm_connection _rm{_env}; // To be attached to env's rm Genode::Region_map_client _obj_space{_rm.create(OBJECT_SPACE_SIZE)}; ... Region_map::Attr attributes{.size = OBJECT_SPACE_SIZE, .offset = 0, .use_at = true, .at = OBJECT_SPACE_START, .executable = true, .writeable = true}; addr_t ptr_obj = 0; env.rm() .attach(_obj_space.dataspace(), attributes) .with_result( [&ptr_obj](Genode::Env::Local_rm::Attachment &attachment) { ptr_obj = (Genode::addr_t)attachment.ptr; attachment.deallocate = false; }, [](auto) { error("couldn't attach dataspace!"); throw; }); ``` I expect this code snippet to make the region at 0x80000000 to be rwx, however when I run my program with GDB I see that the permissions are ---p: (gdb) info proc mappings Mapped address spaces: Start Addr End Addr Size Offset Perms objfile 0x80000000 0xc0000000 0x40000000 0x0 ---p I have also tried adding a dataspace capability to _obj_space ( before attaching it to env.rm() ) but that had no effect on the permissions: ```cpp _obj_space.attach(env.ram().alloc(OBJECT_SPACE_SIZE), attributes); ``` Any help / suggestions would be greatly appreciated as I have been stuck on this for quite a while! Best, Rumen P.S. The permissions are set correctly when I do: ```cpp addr_t ptr_obj = 0; env.rm() .attach(env.ram().alloc(OBJECT_SPACE_SIZE), attributes) .with_result( [&ptr_obj](Genode::Env::Local_rm::Attachment &attachment) { ptr_obj = (Genode::addr_t)attachment.ptr; attachment.deallocate = false; }, [](auto) { error("couldn't attach dataspace!"); throw; }); ``` The problem with this is that later on in my program I get an error as I need the _obj_space region map client.

GUI Incompatible with Genode 25.05?
by Rumen Mitov 17 Jul '25

17 Jul '25

Hi, I am trying to port an old Genode project (uses Genode 24.02) to Genode 25.05. The problem is that I get build errors due to the fact that genodelabs/api/base/2025-04-09 uses a newer interface for some functions which have not been updated for genodelabs/api/gui_session/2024-10-29 (see the log file for more details). I checked https://depot.genode.org/ and the latest gui_session depot version is 2024-10-29. What is the timeframe of updating the gui_session to Genode 25.05? I would like to know if it is worth the effort of porting the project to a less recent version of Genode (e.g. 24.10) or if I should just wait for the update. Best, Rumen

Using the Lwext4 Project with Goa
by Rumen Mitov 16 Jul '25

16 Jul '25

Hello, I have managed to integrate the lwext4 Genode port (https://codeberg.org/jws/genode-wundertuete/src/branch/sculpt-25.04-2025-04…) in the past with the target.mk approach. However, recently I have changed my build system to Goa with CMake. From what I understand the only thing I need to add to my build configuration is the path to `<lwext4-repo>/recipes/src/vfs_lwext4` (for reference: https://codeberg.org/jws/genode-wundertuete/src/branch/sculpt-25.04-2025-04…). Unfortunately, when I try adding the aforementioned path in my `<project>/pkg/<project>/archives` file, I get the following error: "Error: invalid depot-archive path '_/_/_/wundertuete/recipes/src/vfs_lwext4'". Could someone kindly let me if I am missing or misunderstood something? I do not need the lwext4 library itself, only the integration of it into the VFS. Best, Rumen

vfs_block Persistence
by Rumen Mitov 16 Jul '25

16 Jul '25

Hi, I wanted to ask about the new vfs_block and how a block file can be made persistent between Goa runs. My vfs_block configuration is as follows: <content> <rom label="vfs"/> <rom label="vfs_block"/> <rom label="vfs.lib.so"/> <rom label="vfs_import.lib.so"/> <rom label="vfs_lwext4.lib.so" /> <rom label="snapper_block.raw"/> </content> <start name="vfs_block" ram="1G"> <provides><service name="Block"/></provides> <config> <vfs> <ram/> <import> <rom name="snapper_block.raw"/> </import> </vfs> <policy label_prefix="vfs" file="/snapper_block.raw" block_size="512" writeable="yes"/> </config> </start> My program runs successfully, however changes made to the block file (snapper_block.raw) do not persist. This is because I use <ram/>. But without <ram/> I get an error that the block file is inaccessible. How can I make the block changes persist between runs? In previous versions of Genode I could achieve this with lx_block, but I am unsure how to do this with vfs_block. Best, Rumen

vfs plugin per-client RAM quota
by Stefan Thöni 08 Jul '25

08 Jul '25

Dear Genodians One of our vfs plugins needs a bit more RAM per client. Therefore the question came up, if RAM quota donation from the client is supported for vfs plugins and if so where one might find an example of this mechanism. Best regards Stefan

Determine total resources consumed within a nested init
by Sid Hussmann 04 Jul '25

04 Jul '25

Dear Genodians, I want to determine the total resources consumed within a deeply nested subsystem. The only apparent way to do this is to iterate through all the init state reports of the children and their ancestors down to the leaf and accumulate the respective `ram_used` and `caps_used` attributes of the `child` nodes. Is this the way? Intuitively, the parent at the tree's root should be aware of this information. However, after digging through the documentation and the code, I found that this `total_ram_used`/`total_caps_used` information is not available out of the box within an init component/sandbox library. I assume the reason for this is that there is no (easy) way to communicate this information all the way back to the parent. On the other hand, implementing a monitor component that goes through all these recursive init state reports, not knowing how deep the tree is, and assuming that all the sub-inits correctly report their state seems quite error-prone. Is my assumption correct that the only way to determine a subsystem's resource consumption is to aggregate the init state reports down to the leaf?
