Hi Folks,
starting to discover the possibilities of using storage devices under genode, a few questions arised:
(1) AHCI is declared non-working on Fiasco.OC and NOVA. Is this planned to be resolved in the near future? (2) USB Storage is supporting only one device. Are there plans to extend this? (3) Using the part_blk service, it is possible to redirect children to different partitions of the same storage device. What I'm interested in is somehow the inverse. Is it even possible for a child to get access to multiple block devices? I think it is quite a limiting constraint if a child can only access one single storage device.
The background for this question is of course the Vancouver port. I was able to give the guest VM access to exactly one storage device through the Block Session Interface of the USB service. However, as soon as the VM is configured to use a second device, the existing infrastructure does not allow that (or I haven't found the proper service..).
So, I would like to open the discussion on this topic to see where the path could lead.
Cheers,
Markus
