Running genode on QEMU having board support of raspberry pi for arm_v8.
by DHIRAJ PRAJAPATI 06 Feb '23

06 Feb '23

Dear genodians, As I saw that you already worked on the Raspberry for Genode framework,I wanted to ask about that because I am also working on it. I am trying the port genode having the arm_v8a support of Raspberry board to run that on QEMU. So I need some guidance from you on how to start and what should be the roadmap for generating the boot image (.img file ) having arm 64 architecture which can be booted and run on QEMU. It would be very helpful for me if you guide me to port genode on QEMU for arm_v8a. Regards, DHIRAJ.

Restarting siblings vs. restarting nieces
by Sid Hussmann 06 Feb '23

06 Feb '23

Dear Genodians, I noticed a behavior that I would like to understand. Let's assume we have the following parent-child relationship of a sub-system, omitting some ancestors for simplicity: ``` . └── init ├── fs │ ├── init │ │ └── rump │ ├── fs_mgr │ └── report_rom ├── fs_client1 └── fs_client2 ``` In this example, the config for the first `init` is written via the depot query/deploy mechanism. Thus, `fs`, `fs_client1`, and `fs_client2` are pkg archives. The `runtime` file from pkg archive `fs` contains a management component `fs_mgr` that generates an `init` config which starts a `vfs` server with a `rump` plugin within that `init`. For context, we use the `fs_mgr` to instrument it to start `fsck` or `mkfs` depending on its configuration. But that's not relevant right now. Let's also assume the routing is valid so that `fs_client1` and `fs_client2` are up and running, and they both consume the `File_system` session provided by `rump`. Now to my observation: When I restart `fs` by incrementing its version attribute in the deploy file, `fs`, `fs_client1`, and `fs_client2` all get restarted. That is what I would expect. However, the behavior is different when I instrument the `fs_mgr` to restart `rump`. Most of the time, both `fs_client1` and `fs_client2` don't seem to notice. Is this behavior by design? Is `init` designed to behave differently regarding client/server dependency when siblings get restarted vs. when a niece is restarted? Is there a way to instrument `fs_mgr` to write an `init` config, so that `fs_client1` and `fs_client2` get restarted? Granted, I observed this in a more complex scenario. I once had the following errors when restarting `rump` on `arm_v8a/base-hw`: ``` Kernel: init -> init -> fs_client1 -> ep: cannot send to unknown recipient ... Kernel: Cpu 0 error: re-entered lock. Kernel exception?! ``` Would it make sense for me to create a simplified scenario of it to dig into this behavior further? Kind regards, Sid

vbox6-block: hang in linux kernel boot
by Dan Connolly 31 Jan '23

31 Jan '23

As I mentioned, I got vbox6-block to boot using 4 block devices. It boots grub, and I can transfer control to Ubuntu 22.04. I used recovery mode to get a little more info about what's going on. Then after a bit it hangs. The genode logs show lots of "preemption during measurement" warnings. The linux kernel log shows stuff like... start_kernel+0x49a/0x4ca ... Spectre V2 : ... Filling RSB on VMEXIT ... smpboot: CPU0: Intel(R) Core(TM) i5-3320M CPU @ 2.60GHz ... and then... nothing. suggestions? For more config, logs and a screenshot, see... https://github.com/dckc/madmode-blog/issues/49#issuecomment-1409922456 -- Dan Connolly http://www.madmode.com/

vbox6-block: no policy defined for label 'vbox6-block -> block0'
by Dan Connolly 31 Jan '23

31 Jan '23

I'm struggling to understand how to configure the vbox6-block component. All seems to go well until... [runtime -> ahci-0.part_block] Warning: no policy defined for label 'vbox6-block -> block0' I read up on component configuration; I have a better understanding of it now. https://genode.org/documentation/genode-foundations/22.05/components/Compon… But I don't understand the details of how to configure block services in a launcher. For detailed logs, my launcher config, etc., see: https://github.com/dckc/madmode-blog/issues/49#issuecomment-1407819827 p.s. I got falkon and screenshot working, but in that same issue 49, note problem reports w.r.t - shutdown / acpica - ssh_client - sneakernet (usb_drv) -- Dan Connolly http://www.madmode.com/

vm launcher config for usb devices rom?

I'm making a vm launcher file; what do I put in there to make the ... ROM (usb devices) -> usb devices rom ... connection noted in https://genodians.org/jschlatow/2022-10-27-fresh-vm-on-sculpt ? I can't configure it with the GUI because the vertical resolution on this ThinkPad T430 is only 900 pixels and the vm config menu is too tall. I see the screen size limitation is known... > That's a known limitation. I agree that it is inconvenient, so I keep it > in the back of my mind.

Hi Dan, I got pass this error by pasting hard disk UUID in to different locations , at the very top and at the very bottom. Now I am getting the vbox6 windows to come up but with a message: FATAL: No bootable medium Found! System halted. I tried changing the storage controller from SATA to IDE but I get the same message.

fec_nic_drv no packet ever send on imx8mm
by Jean-Adrien Domage 27 Jan '23

27 Jan '23

Dear Genodians, I am updating our reference branch to the 22.11 tag for the genode repository and respective references for the genode-world and genode-imx repositories. I am facing an issue with the 'fec_nic_drv' on imx8mm_iot_gate, an "arm_v8a" based board. The driver connects successfully to the "nic_router" uplink session. But no DHCP request is ever received by the DHCP server running on my host. Furthermore, inspecting with Wireshark, no packet is ever sent by the device after the TFTP transmission. After some debugging, I concluded that the driver received a packet to send via the packet stream interface from the "nic router". It is successfully inserted into the driver's tx queue. Finally, I could identify in the mnt_reform2_linux code base "drivers/net/ethernet/freescale/fec_main.c" the function `fec_enet_tx_queue` that seems to process the skb buffer. I would be pleased if someone has been down that path already and could point me out some hints. Unfortunately, there are no warnings or errors that light up. I have attached logs containing some debug messages. Please ignore the missing "report_rom" errors. May I be overlooking something or not looking at the right place? Thanks for your time! :) Best, Jean-Adrien
