porting 3rd-software to Genode
by lzSun 03 Sep '18

03 Sep '18

Hello, I am porting a 3rd-party software to Genode framework. I follow this tutorial(https://genode.org/documentation/developer-resources/porting). When I execute the run command, the compilation process is complete, but there's a problem occurred when linking: "libc.lib.so: undefined reference to `Libc::Component::construct(Libc::Env&)' collect2: error: ld returned 1 exit status I have no idea how to fix this problem, can anyone give me some help? Thanks, ------------------ Best wishes

Sculpt VC Launcher GUI?
by Nobody III 31 Aug '18

31 Aug '18

In Sculpt VC, I haven't seen any launcher GUI. Does such a component exist? Or do I still have to use the text interface (vim) to launch components?

Hi Stefan, Thanks very much for your detailed reply! > You are writing that you use Genode 18.05 nova? The nova kernel does > not run on ARM platforms. Certainly, you are using the base-hw kernel? Sorry, I meant seL4. > The imx6 gpio driver allows to set 7*32=224 pins to be set. It > controls 7 dedicated GPIO controllers with 32 pins for each.

Yes, after I sent my original message I realized the the MAX_PINS variable was per bank and that the pin mapping to jp4 is the same as in linux. I am now able to read and write to the expected pins on jp4 extender. Next I am going to attempt to get the framebuffer working on the Wandboard Quad by modifying the imx53 framebuffer source code included with genode. So far I have modified: repos/base/include/drivers/defs/imx6.h to add the needed IPU_BASE, IPU_SIZE, PWM2_BASE and PWM2_SIZE variables. I see two interesting things when I boot: * Info: Not using supported FPU as FPU is disabled in the build configuration * [init -> fb_boot_drv] Error: No boot framebuffer information available. Perhaps if I fix the first issue the information will be provided and the second bullet point will be resolved as well. I will update the mailing list as I make progress. -- Edward Sandberg Adventium Labs 111 3rd Avenue S. Suite #100 Minneapolis, MN 55401 ed.sandberg(a)adventiumlabs.com

10th anniversary of the first public Genode release
by Norman Feske 31 Aug '18

31 Aug '18

Dear Genode community, as announced in the most recent Genode-Labs newsletter [1], we can celebrate the 10th anniversary of Genode this year. [1] https://www.genode-labs.com/news/newsletter/newsletter-2018-07 ------ Genode has reached the age of one decade! This is fascinating from various perspectives. First, we still vividly remember the time when we founded the project like if it was yesterday. We remember asking ourselves the question how we imagine Genode Labs in ten years. Well, it actually looks pretty much exactly like we had envisioned: A tight- knit group of enthusiastic and energetic minds working without friction in an enjoyable environment, a healthy open-source ecosystem, having earned the trust and recognition of highly reputable people. Our dream has become reality. Second, it took us more then 10 years to transform our initial vision of an ideal operating system into the software that runs so nicely on our laptops now. With the common perception of a rapid and ever accelerating evolution of technology as a background, this time frame feels like an eternity. But now, we are here. Third, maintaining a sustainable business over this long period while retaining independence is not easy. But it is possible and a fulfilling experience we would not want to miss. To celebrate the anniversary together with the community, friends, and families around Genode, we continue our tradition of holding a barbecue at the banks of the river Elbe: Google Maps: http://goo.gl/maps/C0luj Thursday August 30, 6 pm near Eisenberger Strasse in Dresden If you are planning to attend, please let us know by writing a short note to: info(a)genode-labs.com ------ Cheers Norman -- Dr.-Ing.

Wandboard Quad GPIO mapping
by Edward Sandberg 30 Aug '18

30 Aug '18

I'm working with the imx6 GPIO driver on Wandboard Quad, using the gpio_led run file as a smoke test. Unfortunately, I've had only limited success controlling the GPIO pins exported to the Wandboard's JP-4. It is unclear where these pins map in the Genode imx6 driver (18.05, nova). In Linux, I can successfully toggle them all via /sys/class/gpio. The imx6 driver allows for 32 pins to be set to high or low and I have modified the run file and the main.cc file to blink sets of pins rather than just a single pin. If I set all 32 pins as output with an initial value of "0" in the run file and then blink the following sets of pins I see these results: 0-31: I read 3 pins blinking with a voltage meter 0-15: I read 2 pins blinking 0-6: I read no pins blinking 7-15: I read no pins blinking It seems as though it takes combinations of pins set to high and low at the same time to get a reading of high or low off of a particular pin, but I cannot divine the pattern. This leads me to think that there is a step missing in the initial configuration. Does anyone have a suggestion of what step I am missing to get predictable results? -- Edward Sandberg Adventium Labs 111 3rd Avenue S.

Announcement: Genode OS Framework version 18.08 released
by Norman Feske 30 Aug '18

30 Aug '18

I have the pleasure to announce the release of Genode 18.08, which continues our story of sculpting Genode into a general-purpose OS. The release specifically addresses the device-driver support of modern PC hardware, the concern of applying microcode updates to Intel CPUs in a timely fashion, the scalability of application workloads, and the interactive usability of the system. The highlights of Genode 18.08 are: - Sculpt OS with live runtime view - Device drivers - Linux device-driver environment based on kernel 4.16.3 - Updated and enhanced Intel framebuffer and wireless drivers - De-componentized USB stack, support for isochronous devices - Improved device compatibility of NIC and PS/2 drivers - Experimental runtime for Zircon-based drivers - Base framework and OS-level infrastructure - NIC-router support for multiple uplinks - New VFS plugin for using LwIP as TCP/IP stack - Cached file-system-based ROM service - VFS plugin for importing initial content - Enhanced Ada language support - Libraries and applications - Python 3 - VirtualBox 5.1.38 - Platforms - New Intel Microcode update mechanism - Multiprocessor support for our custom kernel on x86 - Updated NOVA and Fiasco.OC kernels All of these and more improvements are covered in detail by the release documentation: https://genode.org/documentation/release-notes/18.08 Have fun with exploring the new version!

endless repeating message when starting vbox with RAW format diks
by Pirmin Duss 27 Aug '18

27 Aug '18

Hello Genodeans I Try to run a Linux in a RAW disk partition. The boot loader runs and starts the kernel but then something goes wrong. [runtime -> work -> vbox] Warning: VMM: map_memory - write fault on ROM region!? gp=0xffff0000 [runtime -> work -> vbox] Warning: VMM: map_memory - write fault on ROM region!? gp=0xffff0000 [runtime -> work -> vbox] VMM: error: unmap not implemented The last line is endlessly repeating. If I let the guest run, like this, for about 1 minute, the whole system becomes unusable. If I dd a Windows 10 image in to the partition the guest boots without any problem. Does anybody have an idea, what could cause this issue? Attached are the VBOX and VMDK-template file. We have a small component, that creates the VMDK file form the template with the size of the partition. Best regards, Pirmin

Expanding an NVME partition to 1T hangs
by Duss Pirmin 27 Aug '18

27 Aug '18

Hello Genodeans I have upgraded my Sculpt notebook with a 1T NVME disk as I want to use different virtual machines. When I hit expand and configm, the expansion starts and about 20 seconds later the following message is printed: [runtime -> nvme-0.3.resize2fs] resource_request: ram_quota=30535680 [runtime] child "nvme-0.3.resize2fs" requests ressource: ram=30535680 A reboot is required, to use the disk again. If I boot the system afterwards, the partition is resized to 1T. Best regards Pirmin

Change to usb_drv? (17.11 -> 18.05)
by Steven Johnston 16 Aug '18

16 Aug '18

Hi All: One of my components that handles a USB device was working in 17.11 (x86_32, nova), but is causing problems when I attempt to run it in 18.05. The device is an FTDI-based USB-GPIO adapter (FT232H chip), along with a port of libftdi. The USB hub setup seems to work, but the FTDI setup generates an error in the log "ftdi_usb_reset failed", occurring when libusb_control_transfer() fails during a USB reset. There is a similar sounding issue mentioned in the release notes regarding usb_block_drv. Might it be the same? If so, has this been resolved in some general way? Thank you for any input, Steven

Genode Foundations book format
by astian 14 Aug '18

14 Aug '18

Hi, Looking for interesting things to read I came across this book, but would like to know if the last version (apparently 18.05) is available in some format less damned inflexible than PDF. Searching around turned up this URL: https://genode.org/documentation/genode-foundations-16-05.epub Which is ideal, except that an "...-18-05.epub" does not seem to exist. Thanks.
