Hi Stefan,
Thank you for the information.
Can you explain how we can run the two tests, Network performance and compiling Genode's core on Genode tests?
The network performance was measured using the run script "netperf_lwip", the Genode core compilation is measured using "noux_tool_chain_auto". Both run scripts can be found in the 'ports' repository, under 'repos/ports/run'.
Thank you. We will use them for our tests.
We will use latest Fiasco.OC kernel by modifying etc/foc.conf, if version matters.
It's just an assumption, as I said I don't know whether the developers of Fiasco.OC fixed the SMP performance weakness in a more recent version. The following e-mail from Christian Prochaska on the l4-hackers mailing list explains the SMP problem in more detail:
http://permalink.gmane.org/gmane.comp.micro-kernel.l4.devel/4896
I'll run L4Linux on L4Re on both the kernels(old and new). If I can find significant performance improvement then I'll try to run over Genode.
Just a warning: if you're planning to upgrade to a more recent version of Fiasco.OC, don't expect that everthing will run out-of-the-box.
If there are some issues like makefiles and toolchains, I might be able to handle them. Otherwise, I'll get back to you.
Thanks and Regards Praveen
