Back to UTCB IPC
by Marc CHALAND 11 Oct '09

11 Oct '09

Hi, I am back with my problem with UTCB IPC. To sum up the context : I use pure l4env applications. Here is the scenario between my server and my client : 1. client makes an UTCB IPC to manager. Manager does an l4rm_area_reserve, creates a rcv_fpage, creates worker and sends back worker thread id to client. 2. client allocates memory and associated flexpage and sends it to server. 3. UTCB IPC is sent to worker with 3 parameters : - on client side : utcb->values=0xbff00200: arg1=0x2 arg2=0x1 arg3=0x6 - on server side : utcb->values=0xbff00200: arg1=0x241401 arg2=0x0 arg3=0x7069776c It seems that 0xbff00200 is not mapped on the same memory on client and server side. As there is no problem for first IPC (utcb->values is also 0xbff00200), is there any potential problem with flexpage ? As utcb->values is still the same, what happens if several threads try to make UTCB IPC ? Another question : when I link my application with liblogserver.a, I have strange logs : .rm.sem.mainMain function returned. It seems that .rm .sem and .main are added by l4env, but I didn't find where. Regards Marc

Hi Mike (and all), I am writing about L4, its hopeful development path, and how ubiquity in systems can lead to information democracy. The goals are naturally social, but the technology layer is key. I think you have good ideas and I hope you are able to bring them to fully working level. I hope you can be verbose about your research and can supply all your resources, and perhaps images, for the pubic. I have two sites that I want use as a vehicles for this research direction, http://thinman.com , which is the culmination of my work and also my fully independent degree in Information Technology. While I was in financial technology (1990-2003), I used my time to develop the Thinman model, which is a purely sharing ubiquitous model whose sharing is inspired by Perl's CPAN system, where this type of component module system works at the OS level rather than in userland. I also have information at the Linux Society blog, which is an artifact from the very active free systems clubs of the 1990s in NYC. There I have some writing by Gernot about the need for an OS learning path in middle schools; something that Abe Maslow would agree with. I was in technology from 1990 to 2003, when developmental technology was moved to India. Since the I have pursued teaching, but now I work in retail and study social psychology.

Hi all, I'm new to this mailing list but I've done a little study of the source code, history, and other things surrounding Pistachio and L4-Hurd. My knowledge of L4 is very limited. I have a goal of a drop-in Linux replacer built on much better technology, such as L4 or the kind of work being done at VPRI. I have a rough design for such a thing but a lot of major pieces are missing. On the other hand, a totally new (to me) system with enough apps to get me through the day would be good too. The system I'm currently looking at is Coyotos, which is based on EROS and KeyKOS. These systems feature capability security, and I read somewhere that L4 was designed with this in mind. I can't find much info about that. I'd appreciate any information about any of this that seems relevant, even if it has nothing to do with any specific thing I've mentioned. If this list wouldn't be interested in what you have to say, you can email me privately at mikejolley(a)sbcglobal.net. Thanks a lot, Mike Jolley

Question about ipcmon and assembler IPC shortcut
by Marc CHALAND 30 May '08

30 May '08

Hi, I've made a little test with ipcmon. This test is a simple application launched by loader which makes an IPC to names (05) and to log server (06). With assembler IPC shortcut, I don't need to set an accept rule to names. ipcmon doesn't handle requests to names. If I activate jdb IPC monitoring, then IPC to names are handled by ipcmon. After some more checking, it seems that assembler IPC shortcut doesn't care about parity. For example, if 4 (roottask) is allowed, then 5 is also allowed only for assembler code. I tried to find a bug, but I don't know where capability is checked in assembler code (ia32). Does anybody know where this check is done ? Regards Marc

How to eliminate echoes when loading module
by Shih-I Huang 27 May '08

27 May '08

Hi all, I am currently trying to use microkernel in our platform (X86 platform). However, I found the Fiasco returns many echoes when booting and I would like to remove them. Is there any way to remove these echoes? Besides, is there any way to display an image when booting system? (like usplash in Ubuntu) Thanks in advance. Eric.

Alternatively, setting up a development chroot is pretty easy, and not such a bad idea. pbuilder makes this quite easy. Install the pbuilder package, then run Code: sudo pbuilder create --distribution edgy --debootstrapopts arch --debootstrapopts i386 You can then login to your chroot with sudo pbuilder login. This won't save any changes you make in the chroot (you need to pass --save-after-login to do that), though, since it's designed for building debian packages. ****************************** Could you please give me some advice ? thank you very much!
