Hi Stefan,
i modified the request semaphore call and changed the constructor of the Signal_source_client as follows:
[/repos/base-foc/src/lib/base/signal_source_client.cc] :
Signal_source_client::Signal_source_client(Capability<Signal_source> cap) : Rpc_client<Foc_signal_source>(static_cap_cast<Foc_signal_source>(cap)) { /* request mapping of semaphore capability selector */ _sem = call<Rpc_request_semaphore>(Thread::myself()->cap()); }
[/repos/base-foc/src/include/signal_source/rpc_object.h] :
Native_capability _request_semaphore(Thread_capability tcap) {
Fiasco::l4_irq_detach(_blocking_semaphore.data()->kcap());
Fiasco::l4_msgtag_t tag = Fiasco::l4_irq_attach(_blocking_semaphore.data()->kcap(), 0, tcap.data()->cap()); if (l4_error(tag)) Genode::raw("l4_irq_attach failed with ", l4_error(tag));
return _blocking_semaphore;
}
Unfortunately i run into problems if a component uses a timer. As soon as timer.sleep is called the component waits forever.
After taking a look at some code (especially Platform_thread) I think the problem might be that i now use the kcap of the thread capability for the l4_irq_attach call instead of the kcap of the corresponding gate capability.
Is that right or might there be another reason for my timer problem?
Kind Regards,
David

Hi,
it seems to work if i use <capability>.data()->kcap(). Is that correct?
Yes.

What I meant with:
"... the signal handler thread transfers its identity to core viarequest_semaphore..."
was that you add an additional argument to the request_semaphore call, which is the CPU session's thread capability of the calling thread, like this:
Thread::myself()->cap()Core can therewith retrieve the "real" thread capability, in terms of the kernel's thread capability, and attach that to the IRQ object. I hope I could get my ideas across to you.
Best regards Stefan
Thank you! I modified the request semaphore call according to your suggestion.
My only problem is that i don't get how to use the transfered thread capability to retrieve the kernel's thread capability. More precisely, i'm not able to figure out how to determine the correct kcap which i have to use in the l4_irq_attach call (which is now on core's side).
Could you give me some more advise on that?
Kind Regards, David
