Hello Genodians
We would like to port scp to Genode to securely copy files to and from a target. The scp binary works by calling it's counterpart on the remote system through the SSH channel using a shell. The obvious way would be to create a noux package and make use of bash. However it came to our attention that noux is to be deprecated.
Therefore our question: What is the future of the shell in Genode? How should we go about using SSH and porting scp?
Best regards Stefan
Hi Stefan,
As far as I understand it (I wasn't involved in the transition that much) the libc overtook the role of the former noux environment (by gaining execv and fork support). So, AFAIK, the best way would be linking your port against libc (plus it's plugins and the vfs).
Maybe [1] will be of help here.
Cheers, Martin
