Hello Genode-main readers,
I am a quite new Genode user and I have a problem of how to use dataspaces. I understand that a dataspace represents a contiguous physical memory space. And that every component can use it, if it has a capability to it (by attaching it to its RM session).
But, (1) how is a dataspace typically populated with data and (2) how can a component typically read the data?
A further, related question is, (3) what is an allocator, and (4) what is the difference between an allocator and a dataspace? (5) How is an allocator (e.g. in the form of a sliced_heap or heap) typically used in C++?
I would be happy about some code snippets or further links, which can answer my questions. I would be satisfied, if someone can answer question (1) and (2) :)
Kind regards Denis
