Current genode release

[Daniel Waddington]

Hi Stefan,

OK, we got it to build but could get our additional methods on 
Foc_cpu_session to build.  Question is, how do you introduce a new type 
(e.g., struct) to be used as part of an RPC signature?  Do you have to 
somewhere say how to marshal/unmarshal that type?

Thanks
Daniel
